Preliminary cost estimates and pollutant reduction estimates have been calculated for the proposed projects using data from past Stearns SWCD projects and work completed by RESPEC for the Two Rivers Lake Targeted Conservation Practice Plan (2015). The funds requested with this application will go towards implementation of projects to reduce the nutrient and sediment loading from those properties within those prioritized areas. The three agricultural sites will be focused on erosion control and nutrient reduction practices. BMP?s implemented will range from structural practices (water and sediment basins, grassed waterways, etc.) to management practices (cover crops, residue management, land use changes). Targeted areas in the City of Albany include a potential wetland restoration and multiple urban BMP?s (raingardens, iron enhanced sand filters, infiltration swales, etc.). The estimated reductions associated with proposed urban and agricultural BMPs is 107 pounds phosphorous/yr. and 49 tons of sediment/yr.

This will allow the city to routinely complete 100% of the anti-icing routes prior to snowfall/freezing rain events with the proper blend for the specific storm event. The improvements to the system also give the City the ability to provide anti-icing blends to other local agencies such as Three Rivers Park District, Hennepin County, Bloomington School District and other nearby Municipalities that are specific for each of their uses.

This project will install 15 WASCOB projects that will reduce 350.25 Tons/Year of sediment and 300 lbs./year of Phosphorus loading to Lake Emily meeting 15% of the 2,000 TP lbs./year Phosphorus resource goal in the Water Plan. Section 2-page 11 of the water plan describes 33% of the external phosphorus loading to Emily is coming from the direct drainage areas, 50% from the Little Chippewa River, and 7% from upstream of Emily to Lake Minnewaska. The TMDL shows that a 35% reduction goal of 6,370 lbs. of external Phosphorus reduction is needed to delist Lake Emily. The County Water Plan (section 2 page 2-11) identifies (http://www.popeswcd.org) these direct drainage areas as contributing 33% (2,000 lbs.) of the total loading to Lake Emily based on the TMDL study to meet the TMDL goals. Section 1 page 17 identities erosion and sediment control as a priority planning issue and surface water quality, which also has a top priority for the Chippewa River watershed. Page 4-3 identifies action step 1.B.2.d. to install 5 WASCOBS in the Lake Emily watershed in 2017. The Chippewa River Fecal Coliform and Turbidity TMDL Implementation Plan June 2011 6.1.2.1 Structural Practices (page 46) identifies the goal of 75 WASCOBS through the Chippewa River watershed.

These two priorities account for 33% of the phosphorus loading to Lake Emily. Lake Emily is identified in the Eight Lake TMDL study and the Pope County Water Plan as being impaired for excessive nutrients.

The projects must use practices demonstrated to be effective, be of long-lasting public benefit, include a match, and be consistent with total maximum daily load (TMDL) implementation plans, watershed restoration and protection strategies (WRAPS), or local water management plans or their equivalents. A portion of these funds may be used to seek administrative efficiencies through shared resources by multiple local governmental units.","The primary measureable outcome of this project is the reduction of sediment transport within the watershed. This project will reduce an estimated 670 tons of sediment per year.

Sediment reduction strategies have been prioritized in local water management plans and through TMDL implementation plans for the Cannon River and Trout Brook. Specific BMPs have been targeted for this project based on a completed subwatershed analysis which evaluated potential practices that would yield the greatest sediment reductions. 346 projects were identified and ranked through the subwatershed analysis, and field reconnaissance has been completed for all identified practices to determine feasibility. A cost-benefit ranking was developed to prioritize projects based on the cost per ton of sediment reduction over the contract life of each practice. Of the 346 practices that were identified and ranked, efforts are already underway and funding has been secured to install many of the top 50 ranked practices.

The TACS program provides technical and financial assistance to property owners and public entities to address water quality issues, and install practices. The program is guided by the approved Comprehensive Water Resources Management Plan of the Scott WMO with targeting guided by additional special studies or subwatershed assessments completed by the WMO or the Scott SWCD. For this effort targeting will be guided by the Credit River Protection Plan completed by the Scott WMO, the Cleary Lake Subwatershed Assessment being completed in 2018, and the assessments for chloride, Roberts Creek and Thole Lake listed as additional collaborative projects below. Practice eligibility and standards are guided by the Conservation Practice Financial Assistance Program Policy Manual which currently includes 24 practices (including Innovative Practices), and is reviewed and updated annually by the Scott WMO and the Scott SWCD. Match will come from landowner and/or public entities cost share. In the Scott WMO, Sand Creek, Credit River and Raven Stream are all listed as impaired for aquatic life due to chlorides. In the LMRWD, PLSLWD, and VRWJPO, chloride is not specifically called out as an impairment. However, chloride concentrations in lakes and streams are becoming an increasing concern not only in Scott County but throughout the entire metro area so taking both restorative and preventative actions is important. This project consists of completing chloride applicator trainings and assessments, and follow-up coaching designed to help both public and private deicing operations plan to reduce chloride application and identify priority actions to get started or to improve. The first task consists of completing 8 to 12 chloride applicator trainings over the next three years starting the fall of 2018. These trainings would be a mix of road and parking lots trainings including both Levels 1 and 2. The second task consists of having ""coaching"" assistance or demonstrations available for entities who had staff that completed the training. Coaching could consist of being able to call with questions, or visits to interpret results of Level 2 assessments and to help entities get started. For this, time would be reserved with the consultant completing the trainings, and with a public works professional with experience in chloride alternatives. Demonstrations would be hosted for things like calibration equipment, mixing brine, and/or other topics requested by the training participants. The third task is coordinating and scheduling the trainings, demonstrations, and coaching; and managing the project. Match will be provided as in-kind time by the Scott WMO. This project consists of expanding education and outreach efforts mostly directed at the private landowners and commercial applicators with respect to bacteria and chlorides pollution. This is an area that has not had a lot of focus in the existing outreach efforts in the county. However, recent assessments have found an increase in the number of waters in the county that will be listed for these parameters. Efforts will be designed to increase awareness, and what can be done to address the impairments. It will be implemented through the Scott Clean Water Education Program (SCWEP) which is a partnership of the Scott SWCD, Watershed Organizations in the County, Scott County and some of the cities and townships in the county. Match will be provided by the SCWEP partners. This effort consists of completing two subwatershed assessments designed to identify and prioritize potential BMPs. The two subwatersheds to be completed include the Thole Lake and Roberts Creek subwatersheds. The Thole Lake assessment will focus on identifying practices that control phosphorus. The Roberts Creek assessment will focus on nitrates, bacteria and total suspended solids. Match will be provided as in-kind time from the Scott WMO. This effort consists of including feasibility assessments for the incorporation of water quality components in regional stormwater management facilities being contemplated by the City of Shakopee (city projects 19-03 and 22-002).

A Diagnostic Study, and Implementation Plan were completed in 2010 focusing on reducing sediment and phosphorus pollution for Sand Creek and Cedar and McMahon Lakes. Much of the plan has been implemented, and new data has been collected by the MPCA (in support of developing WRAPS and TMDL's), Met Council, and the SWMO. The update will revise current strategies and flesh out additional strategies identified in pending Wraps and TMDL's. It will then be used to guide targeted implementation. Match will be provided by the Scott WMO. Review City of Prior Lake Drinking Water Supply Management Area to develop a methodology for identifying probable locations of abandoned/unsealed wells.

The lake discharges directly into the Mississippi River, which is the source of drinking water for the communities of St. Cloud, Minneapolis, and St. Paul.

As a result, numerous first & second priority source zones known as Tier 1 & Tier 2 areas were recognized. These zones are located within the ERW's sub-watersheds Mayhew Lake & Big Elk Lake. The TMDL Report identified spring time phosphorus loading as the main concern for Mayhew Lake, whereas summer loads dominate the Big Elk Lake nutrient impairment/Elk River turbidity impairment. Other riparian areas are considered as third priority for potential watershed impact & restoration potential. This study has pinpointed the locations within the watershed where the phosphorus originates from, as well as strategies that may be undertaken to reduce nutrient loading. While we have been able to provide outreach to landowners within these targeted high priority areas, develop site-specific Best Management Practices (BMPs), & design plans to implement projects, further assistance is still needed to get this conservation work on the ground. BMPs were strategically chosen to receive maximum pollution reduction benefits. Types of BMPs include but are not limited to SSTS, nutrient management, feedlot runoff control, manure storage, riparian pasture management, & cropland & streambank erosion control projects. Installing these types of projects will not only fit the needs of the landowner but also provide measurable improvements for soil & water quality.

Rice Marsh Lake is impaired. In early 2016, the district completed an analysis of the Rice Marsh Lake?s watershed to assess its overall health. Rice Marsh Lake does not meet MPCA shallow lake water quality standards due to phosphorus loading. Additionally, high impervious cover in the area has increased stormwater runoff volume and rate, and reduced habitat availability and biological diversity. The District has been looking for ?opportunity projects? within this watershed where measurable water quality improvements are achievable. RPBCWD and St. Hubert School have been working together since 2013 to grow environmental awareness in the school community. Leadership from the school approached RPBCWD in 2018 with interest in taking action on that awareness. Many potential projects were considered, weighing benefits of water quality, runoff volume and rate reduction, ecological biodiversity, educational opportunities and aesthetics of the property, with considerations of safety, cost, and maintenance. Ultimately, four stormwater treatment projects were identified: 1)A parking lot median retrofit to a tree trench that would collect water from the adjacent parking lot, 2)Underground storage of stormwater runoff from the school roof and impervious playground surface, 3)Addition of a rain garden, removal of impervious surface, flooding and gully repair, and native vegetation on the south side of the parking lot, and 4)Restoration of a turf grass parcel into a native prairie with impervious disconnection from the parking lot to catch/treat stormwater.

A significant portion of the annual phosphorus load for Centerville Lake (40-50%, TMDL, 2013) is thought to be from Peltier Lake backflow. Although the TMDL provided an estimate of backflow nutrient loading as a model residual, a more precise understanding is necessary before considering costly management options. Backflow is thought to occur when Peltier Lake?s surface elevation rises above Centerville Lake?s after rain events due to Peltier Lake?s much larger watershed and drawn out time of concentration. If Peltier Lake backflow into Centerville Lake is a problem that requires management (i.e. flow cutoff or reroute), flow rates and elevations are required for project design. Should the lakes be recommended for disconnection, there are two known potential options for maintaining outlet flows from Centerville Lake that, along with any other possible scenarios, need to be analyzed. This is the most important and next achievable step identified for improvement of Centerville Lake in the Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake TMDL Implementation Plan. Understanding, and potentially managing, backflow nutrient loading in Centerville Lake is a pre-requisite to other management actions, such as carp management or sediment-nutrient management.",2021-02-12,2023-12-31,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Kyle,Axtell,"Rice Creek WD","4325 Pheasant Ridge Dr NE #611 ",Blaine,MN,55449,,kaxtell@ricecreek.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Anoka,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/2021-metro-wbif-mississippi-east-watershed-rice-creek-wd,http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,"Annie Felix-Gerth",2

Both project areas were previously identified as water quality improvement projects in subwatershed assessments previously completed by the City. Whitney Pond is located in Keller Lake watershed, Keller Lake is impaired with nutrients and the City of Apple Valley has a waste load allocation to reduce nutrient inputs in the Lake. KL-P4 ultimately drains to Keller Lake under high flow conditions. Both projects are identified in the City's Capitol Improvement Program in the upcoming years. The ultimate outcome will be design for future install to help improve water quality in Keller Lake. The education guide will help connect landowners with their watersheds on a localized scale and provide landowners with resources on protecting water quality. The guide will be sent to approximately 1,800 households in the Keller Lake watershed. The guide is meant to be a template that can be duplicated by others.

It will address non-point source pollution from agricultural lands, specifically those on steep, erodible slopes and ravines (root cause) that are delivering sediment and phosphorus to the East Branch Chippewa River, an important local resource as it passes through several highly recreated and populated lakes within Pope and Swift Counties along with highly productive agricultural and wildlife lands. These lands have been converted to row crop production. Pope and Swift SWCDs have partnered and have 10 landowners ready to implement 65 erosion and sediment control practices. A Stream impairment for Turbidity/TSS in the East Branch is the lower reach from Mud Creek to Benson. Any work done upstream could impact this reach. The Chippewa Turbidity TMDL (2014, pgs. 3-11 and 4-11) and the Chippewa WRAPS Report (2017, pg. 81) both state that this reach needs an average 44% reduction in daily TSS load. Comparing this % reduction to table 3-7 in the Chippewa Turbidity TMDL, this translates to an average daily TSS reduction of 24.3 Tons/day or 8877 tons/year. This project would meet 16% of the Chippewa Turbidity TMDL TSS annual reduction goal. These SWCDs partnered and completed a Water Quality Decision Support Application (WQDSA) for the East Branch of the Chippewa River.

This will be achieved by protecting the Buffalo & Wahpeton Buried Aquifer's and to protect & restore the surface water's that enter the Red River of the North. According to the 2019 MPCA Report of the Red River of the North, the tributaries in the Red River Basin are delivering too much sediment and nutrients to the Red River. High nitrogen levels are a concern to ground water and drinking water supplies while high phosphorus levels are detrimental to surface water quality and contribute to severe algae blooms. The resource concerns that will be addressed with this project include sediment, phosphorus & nitrogen. The project will reduce sediment by an estimated 1275 ton/yr, Total Phosphorus 250 lbs/yr and Total Nitrogen by 885 lbs/yr by planting 1600 acres of cover crops and adopting 800 acres conservation/strip and no tillage practices. The priority areas of this project will allow farmers to develop a sustainable soil health program in the Buffalo Aquifer and Wahpeton Buried Aquifer areas of Wilkin County along with protecting the surface waters entering the Red River in the planning regions of Western, Southern, and the Upper Red for the Buffalo Aquifer and the Otter Tail Planning Region for the Wahpeton Aquifer that are associated with the aquifers. The Buffalo Aquifer provides water for tens of thousands of people, including the residents of Moorhead, MN. The Wahpeton Buried Aquifer provides water to Breckenridge, MN.

Necessary repairs include stabilization of streambanks and construction of best management practices to reduce flow velocities, substantially decreasing sediment and phosphorus delivery to Peltier Lake while improving in-channel habitat for fish and macroinvertebrates. This study would provide a detailed analysis of the extent and severity of the problems, recommend BMPs and engineered solutions, and establish expected resource benefit outcomes. 2) Highway 61 Ponds Improvement Scoping: RCWD operates a pair of wet ponds on Ramsey Washington Judicial Ditch 1 (RWJD1) in White Bear Township that provide sediment capture and general water quality treatment for flows to Bald Eagle Lake. These ponds were constructed in the early 1990's and have received little maintenance since that time. RCWD intends to complete maintenance of the outlet structure and removal of accumulated sediment in the very near future. While planning for this work, RCWD intends to complete this study to evaluate options for improvement of the function and efficiency of the existing facility through retrofit enhancements, expansion, or redesign. 3) Johanna Creek Carp Barrier: RCWD continues its work to reduce the viable population of common carp in the Long Lake - Lino Chain of Lakes system. Management of the primary spawning route through Rice Creek has been successful and monitoring has shown that carp are now migrating through Johanna Creek to a series of wetlands to spawn. Installation of a physical barrier here will effectively block access to this new spawning area and lead to improved water quality in Long Lake.

The target is to reduce loading by 7,123.34 tons/year (Annual TSS load Reduction needed for the Clearwater River at CSAH 12 on AUID 511), which is a 53.96% reduction. Red Lake County SWCD has targeted seven sites for implementation of structural agricultural practices based on data analysis obtained from using the Clearwater River WRAPs and TMDL Reports, Water Quality Decision Support System (WQDSS) tool, DNR Stressor ID database, and the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) models upstream in the Hill River subwatershed. The data identified the Hill River subwatershed as contributing to the impairments on the Clearwater River, highlighted fields in the subwatershed with the highest sediment loading, and even showed specific locations in the field which were most vulnerable to erosion. Red Lake County SWCD conducted an Erosion Site Inventory in 2021, which verified the information from the tools/models and found landowners in these priority areas that were eager to fix the erosion problems on their fields. The structural agricultural practices will include, but are not limited to, grade stabilization structures, grassed waterways, and water & sediment basins.

With the funding of this grant we expect to reduce phosphorus by an additional 7%. The study identified numerous first & second priority source zones known as Tier 1 & Tier 2 areas. These zones are located within the ERW?s sub-watersheds Mayhew Lake & Big Elk Lake. The TMDL Report identified spring phosphorus loading as the main concern for Mayhew Lake, whereas summer loads dominate the Big Elk Lake nutrient impairment and Elk River turbidity impairment. This study has pinpointed the locations within the watershed where the phosphorus originates from, as well as strategies that may be undertaken to reduce nutrient loading. While we have been able to provide outreach to landowners within these targeted high priority areas, develop site-specific BMPs, & design plans to implement projects, financial assistance is still needed to get this conservation work on the ground. BMPs were strategically chosen to achieve maximum pollution reduction benefits. Some example BMPs include, feedlot runoff control, manure storage, riparian pasture management, & cropland erosion control projects. Using a 2021 CWF grant, projects are scored with TMDL criteria and funding decisions are subsequently made by the SWCD board. BWSR handles feedlot BMPs differently in that funding decisions are made during this grant proposal process.

The existing stormwater pond does not meet current water quality standards, so project funds will be used to reconstruct the facility as necessary to meet current water quality treatment standards. Runoff and downstream flood reductions will occur as a secondary benefit on BMP installations. Standards and specifications in Section IV of the USDA NRCS FOTG will be used to ensure effectiveness and a minimum 10-year life expectancy for all BMP's, except the stormwater retrofit project which will utilize the Minnesota Stormwater Manual or other industry-accepted guidance and have an effective life of at least 15 years. In addition to TACS, a portion of grant funds ($28,500) will be used to support a Credit River Streambank Assessment. The City of Savage will work with partner agencies to complete the study because stretches of Credit River are experiencing significant near-channel erosion, including streambank, bluff, and ravine erosion, resulting in water quality degradation.

Identified restoration goals include meeting the sediment and phosphorus water quality standards, primarily for reaches of Twelve Mile Creek, as well as the interconnected Ann, Dog, Dutch, Emma, Howard, and Little Waverly lakes. In 2021, the District completed a subwatershed assessment to identify the most effective locations for water quality improvement projects within the HUC 12 (070102040605) area. The goal for proposed practices is to improve the quality of water entering the North Fork Crow River from Twelve Mile Creek by reducing sediment and total phosphorous, which in turn will help elevate dissolved oxygen levels through construction of targeted best management practices (BMPs). The District selected and ranked 24 potential project areas for additional field evaluation, design and construction. Priority practices include water and sediment control basins (WASCOBs), grassed waterways and filtration practices. Additional practices include, but are not limited to, cover crops, conservation tillage, nutrient management, shoreland restorations, sediment basins and critical area plantings.

The other 16 lakes within the watershed are showing improving trends in Total Phosphorus (TP) and Chlorophyll-a concentrations and increasing clarity of the water. The SWCD believes it is imperative to continue work in the watershed to maximize the momentum that has been built and to both maintain and improve water quality throughout the Chain of Lakes watershed. As part of the Lower St Croix Partnership, the SWCD helped develop the One Watershed, One Plan for the Lower St. Croix River watershed. ?Regionally Significant Lakes? have a total reduction goal of 1,375 lbs (1,275 lbs/yr from rural areas and 100 lbs/yr from urban areas). The Year 3-4 (2023-2024) goal for rural TP reduction is 225 lbs and the urban goal during the same period is 20 lbs for a combined total of 245 lbs. With this application, the SWCD will implement at least 15 BMPs and reduce TP by a minimum of 125 lb/yr (51% of the Year 3-4 goal, 9% of the total goal).

Funded Best Management Practices will address non-point source pollution from agricultural lands, specifically those on steep, erodible slopes and ravines (root cause) that are delivering sediment and phosphorus to the Chippewa River and Lake Emily, an important local resource as it passes through several highly recreated and populated lakes within Pope County along with highly productive agricultural and wildlife lands. These lands have been converted to row crop production. Pope has 6 landowners ready to implement 44 erosion and sediment control practices. The Pope County Water plan has identified surface water quality and erosion control as the top two priority concerns in the 2013-2023 Comprehensive Water Plan (page 1-17). These two priorities account for 33% of the phosphorus loading to Lake Emily. Lake Emily is identified in the Eight Lake TMDL study and the Pope County Water Plan as being impaired for excessive nutrients. A Water Quality Decision Support App (WQDSA) was used to target the highest contributing areas and this proposal will target the highest contributing direct drainage areas to implement projects.

The Lower St. Croix River Comprehensive Watershed Management Plan (LSC CWMP) prioritizes the continuation of improving trends of TP and sediment to the St. Croix River and Lake St. Croix. In 2011, the SWCD received a Clean Water Fund (CWF) to complete an assessment of erosion along the St. Croix River escarpment. The Chisago SWCD used the assessment to secure an additional 8 CWF grants to implement phase 1: installing practices (33 WASCOBs, 12 grassed waterways, 9 clean water diversions, and 36 other water quality BMPs) along the St. Croix River escarpment since 2012. In 2021, the SWCD began phase 2 and utilized a completed Rural Assessment for Dry Creek, Lawrence Creek, and Direct Drainage subwatersheds to secure a CWF grant to implement projects identified in the assessment. These watersheds are upstream of the escarpment and contribute to many of the phase 1 gullies or drain directly to the St. Croix River. Lawrence Creek and an unnamed direct drainage stream are Chisago County's only listed trout streams and are Regionally Significant Streams for Pollution Reduction in the LSC CWMP. The SWCD has completed 7 projects and has an additional 4 projects in planning stages that are anticipated to exhaust the 2021 CWF grant. This application continues the successful implementation of water quality BMPs in the Dry Creek, Lawrence Creek, and Direct Drainage watersheds.

The targeted implementation schedule includes structural agricultural practices with a 10-year measurable outcome of 1,271 tons/year (catchment outlet) to meet the 10-year Plan goal. Red Lake County SWCD has targeted twelve sites for implementation of structural agricultural practices based on data analysis obtained from using the DRAFT Clearwater River CWMP, the Clearwater River WRAPs and TMDL Reports, PTMApp, DNR Stressor ID database, and the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) models. The data identified the Lower Clearwater Planning Region as having the highest sediment yield in the Clearwater River Watershed, highlighted fields in the subwatershed with the highest sediment loading, and even showed specific locations in the field which were most vulnerable to erosion. Red Lake County SWCD conducted an Erosion Site Inventory in 2022, which verified the information from the tools/models and found landowners in these priority areas that were eager to fix the erosion problems on their fields. The structural agricultural practices will include, but are not limited to, grade stabilization structures, grassed waterways, and water & sediment basins.

The LOTR is in the Otter Tail Planning region in the Buffalo-Red River Watershed Comprehensive Watershed Management Plan (BRRWD CWMP). The plan identifies a 10-year goal of reducing the sediment loading from the Otter Tail Planning Region by 9186 tons/yr. The LOTR is a significant source of this sediment, and this project would provide 850 tons/year (approximately 9%) of the 10-year goal identified. The BRRWD CWMP also lists reducing Phosphorus levels as a goal. This project would reduce phosphorus levels by 786 lbs/yr. or approximately 60% of the 10-year goal identified. The Lower 8.2 miles of the Otter Tail River is listed as an impaired water for exceeding the turbidity standard for aquatic life. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency completed a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) report for the Lower Otter Tail River (2021) and determined that 6,868 tons of sediment per year need to be removed for the Lower Otter Tail River to no longer be listed as impaired. When all 20 gullies are stabilized, Sediment Load will be reduced by an estimated 850 tons per year. The sediment reduction associated with this project is 12 percent of the 6,868 tons per year goal set by the TMDL plan at the sampling site in Breckenridge. The Stream Power Index (SPI) tool was used to identify each gully location and the and the Prioritize, Target, and Measure application (PTMapp) was used to prioritize each gully and to quantify the sediment, total phosphorus and total nitrogen loads to the Otter Tail River. In 2018 the Wilkin SWCD received a Clean Water Fund grant to address gullies on the LOTR. This grant resulted in 46 grade stabilization/side inlet structures and a reduction of 944 tons/yr. of sediment. The funds were all used and additional projects were identified and surveyed. These projects are ready for construction awaiting funding. Along with these BMP's the BRRWD is working on stabilizing a head-cut in the Lower Otter Tail River with an additional 2023 CWF grant (Lower Otter Tail River Restoration - Head-cut Stabilization).

Well unique number 220997 is a 1000-foot-deep multi- aquifer well which is located within the Inner well management Zone (200') of Faribault well #1 which is a primary well for the city. The outer casing is a 12"" in diameter. The depth of this casing is unknown. It is also possible the well may telescope down in diameter. Well unique number 277577 is a 750' deep multi- aquifer well located in the same area as the other well but outside the Inner Well Management Zone for any existing public water supply wells. The outer casing of this well is also 12"" in diameter. The depth of this casing is unknown. It is also possible this well may telescope down in diameter. Both wells penetrate three of the common aquifers within the region. These wells are thought to have been constructed in the late 1890's based upon available information. Based upon the age, depth, and construction these wells not only pose a risk to public water supply well(s) but also private wells and the aquifer itself. These well have had casings added to extend to the surface. There is cement located in well unique number 220997 and other material in well #277577 so they will need to be drilled out to determine the sealing status of the wells. MDH well management staff will make the determination what needs to be completed to properly seal the wells including removing obstructions and/or perforating or casings. The city and MDH have been in contact over the years regarding the sealing status of these wells. This project will result in the determination that the wells are properly sealed or will result in the wells being properly sealed. Due to the depth and potential steps that may be required to properly seal these wells the cost to seal these wells will exceed the costs associated with sealing other public water supplies wells. They will need to be set up over and drilled out to verify the depth of concrete and other material present to verify sealing status. If other material not associated with an approved sealing technique is within the well it will need to be removed prior to sealing. It is also possible that casings will need to perforated prior to sealing. All these factors plus the depth of the well(s) lead to the significant cost of sealing these wells. The main purpose of this grant request is to make sure that these wells do not negatively impact any public and private wells or groundwater resources within the region.

The targeted implementation schedule includes structural agricultural practices with a 10-year measurable outcome of 1,271 tons/year (catchment outlet) to meet the 10-year Plan goal. Red Lake County SWCD has targeted ten sites for implementation of structural agricultural practices based on data analysis obtained from using the Clearwater River CWMP, the Clearwater River WRAPs and TMDL Reports, PTMApp, DNR Stressor ID database, the Water Quality Decision Support Tool for Watershed Management, and the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) models. The data identified the Lower Clearwater Planning Region as having the highest sediment yield in the Clearwater River Watershed, highlighted fields in the subwatershed with the highest sediment loading, and even showed specific locations in the field which were most vulnerable to erosion. Red Lake County SWCD conducted an Erosion Site Inventory in 2023, which verified the information from the tools/models and found landowners in these priority areas that were eager to fix the erosion problems on their fields. The structural agricultural practices will include, but are not limited to, grade stabilization structures, grassed waterways, and water & sediment control basins. The implementation of these practices is estimated to reduce sediment loading in the Lower Clearwater River by 318 tons/year (catchment outlet), which would achieve 25% progress towards the 10-year Plan goal.

This appropriation is enabling the Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources to provide grants to local soil and water conservation districts for employment of technical staff to assist private landowners in implementing conservation programs. This effort is expected to assist with the enrollment, retention, and management of 30,000 private acres of grasslands, wetlands, and forests in federal and state conservation programs, particularly in areas expected to lose enrollments in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS This project accelerates the implementation of conservation programs on private lands. Numerous programs and funding sources exist or are being developed to implement conservation practices on private lands. This project provides the one on one link with landowners to identify programs and see them to completion. Accelerated staffing was accomplished by contracting with Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCD) who have a local connection with landowners. Experience has shown this level of service is required as programs are complex and competing land use changes are pulling in the opposite direction. Landowners have no shortage of options in managing their land. Assuring sound conservation practices that benefit water quality and wildlife habitat are part of that plan is a fundamental goal of this project. As Minnesota's agricultural landscape continues to change with even fewer grassland and wetland acres resulting from the expiration of CRP contracts it is ever more important that we slow this progression and work to retain the most critical areas with renewed contracts or easements. This project has paid to directly employ 10 full time equivalent positions within SWCD offices. In addition, this project leverages an added 9 positions funded by other sources from DNR, BWSR and SWCD's. Work affecting more than 54,000ac.was accomplished by this project, greatly exceeding the original goal of 30,000ac.

This appropriation is enabling the Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources to provide grants to local soil and water conservation districts for employment of technical staff to assist private landowners in implementing conservation programs. This effort is expected to assist with the enrollment, retention, and management of 30,000 private acres of grasslands, wetlands, and forests in federal and state conservation programs, particularly in areas expected to lose enrollments in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS This project accelerates the implementation of conservation programs on private lands. Numerous programs and funding sources exist or are being developed to implement conservation practices on private lands. This project provides the one on one link with landowners to identify programs and see them to completion. Accelerated staffing was accomplished by contracting with Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCD) who have a local connection with landowners. Experience has shown this level of service is required as programs are complex and competing land use changes are pulling in the opposite direction. Landowners have no shortage of options in managing their land. Assuring sound conservation practices that benefit water quality and wildlife habitat are part of that plan is a fundamental goal of this project. As Minnesota's agricultural landscape continues to change with even fewer grassland and wetland acres resulting from the expiration of CRP contracts it is ever more important that we slow this progression and work to retain the most critical areas with renewed contracts or easements. This project has paid to directly employ 10 full time equivalent positions within SWCD offices. In addition, this project leverages an added 9 positions funded by other sources from DNR, BWSR and SWCD's. Work affecting more than 54,000ac.was accomplished by this project, greatly exceeding the original goal of 30,000ac. This includes 10,300 acres of riparian protection, 10,000 acres of wetland restoration Projects, 23,100 acres of grassland protection, 11,900 acres of grassland management. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Data is collected on staff time spent, acres impacted and landowners contacted on a quarterly basis and is available to the project partners and participants.

Sediment plumes and deltas have formed at the inlets of pools in Agassiz National Wildlife Refuge (Agassiz Pool) and Thief Lake, an important recreational resource in Northwest Minnesota. Radioisotope soil fingerprinting indicates the severity of the sedimentation problem is within Agassiz Pool. It is estimated that 14,900 tons of sediment has been deposited in Agassiz Pool annually, since 1938. The fingerprinting analysis indicates the dominant source of this sediment is erosion of uplands and fields. This project is a collaborative partnership with USDA-NRCS to establish 50 ft. wide native grassed filter strips, grade-stabilization structures, and field windbreaks to prevent or reduce sedimentation problems. This effort will stabilize the soil, slow down water runoff, and filter the water before entering ditches and streams. The goal is to establish 16 miles of grassed filter strips, 5 miles of field windbreaks, and install 25 grade stabilization structures where needed. Targeted areas within the Thief River Watershed have been prioritized through analysis of sub-basin sediment yields generated by a Soil and Water Assessment Tool model of the watershed.

In addition, buffers stabilize streambanks, enhance riparian and in-stream habitat, and provide landscape connectivity. The DNR's Shoreland Rule requires that landowners maintain a 50 foot buffer of perennial vegetation on public waters. According to previous BWSR estimates, 50% or more of the buffer area in some counties was cropped. Local officials have often struggled to increase compliance with the buffer rule because they did not know the extent and locations of un-buffered streams. This project eliminated that barrier by mapping land use along all public waters in the ten county region of Southeast Minnesota. Mapping The Whitewater River Watershed Project contracted with Cannon River Watershed Partnership to produce the maps. The mapping process utilized aerial photography and a Geographic Information System (GIS) to conduct an assessment and analysis of existing stream courses, channels and land use within shoreland areas. The assessment included all perennial streams within the 10-county region and utilized post flood aerial photos where available. Land cover adjacent to protected waters in all participating counties was also identified based on aerial photo interpretation. From this assessment and analysis, two GIS shapefiles were created for each county: a retraced stream layer and a shoreland layer, which maps the land use within 300 feet of the center line of streams. A total of 3,800 linear miles of streams were mapped, equaling 430 square miles of buffer area. Approximately 60,000 individual polygons were traced, representing 40 unique land uses. These detailed maps show that a much smaller area is being cropped than previously estimated. All counties had 50 foot buffers on at least 90% of their streams. All GIS files are available to the public on the CRWP website. However, some experience with GIS is necessary to successfully utilize this data. For non-GIS users, contacting your County for maps they have produced using this data will be more efficient. Surveys and Focus Groups In addition to mapping shoreland land use, the project also conducted landowner surveys and focus groups to 1) explore the barriers to buffer adoption, 2) identify opportunities for establishing and maintaining buffers, and 3) explore what actions would increase adoption of these buffers. Reports summarizing the survey and focus group results are available. Many counties are moving forward to address areas that lack shoreland buffers. Goodhue is implementing a ""Hayable Buffer"" program, Olmsted has sent out letters to landowners that are out of compliance, Winona is developing a buffer plan, and additional counties are making progress to ensure all streams are protected by perennial buffers. Project Results Use and Dissemination The results of the mapping, surveys, and focus groups were presented and discussed at regional meetings including the Basin Alliance of the Lower Mississippi in Minnesota, the Southeast Water Resources Board, and the Southeast Minnesota Association of County Planning and Zoning Administrators. The maps and land use summary statistics are available on the CRWP website (http://www.crwp.net/Programs/Conservation/ShorelandMapping/ShorelandMapping.html). The project was discussed in a July 8th, 2010 article in AgriNews, a newspaper that reaches many farmers in Southeast Minnesota. In addition to county staff and commissioners, others are using the data for a variety of purposes related to water quality. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency staff is using the maps to help identify stressors to the ecology of streams in the Root River Watershed, and the Fillmore SWCD is using the data to help identify gullies in pastures adjacent to streams. The data can also be used to assess habitat connectivity.

In fact, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District's (MCWD) analysis of water testing results designated the water quality grade as F. This is largely a result of water that rolls off roofs, yards, and streets in the 690-acreDiamond Lake watershed and ends up in the lake - bringing pollutants, debris and dirt with it. Concerned citizens worked with the statewide nonprofit Minnesota Waters (through the MCWD Watershed Association Initiative Program) to form the Friends of Diamond Lake. The lake association completed a lake management plan which includes a goal to champion projects by home owners to reduce storm-water runoff. The Friends of Diamond Lake got word that Hedberg Landscape and Masonry Supplies was looking for a neighborhood interested in doing an environmental community makeover project and asked the MCWD to partner with them in applying for Clean Water Fund grant money. The resulting Go Blue! Diamond Lake Community Makeover Project is a program that provides property owners with up to 50 percent cost share for a variety of storm-water mitigation projects, including installation of raingardens, permeable pavers, rain barrels, trees and rainwater capture and reuse systems. Thirty-four individual households, Diamond Lake Lutheran Church, and the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board have all participated by installing one or more of these practices on their properties and have provided over 1,600 volunteer hours. The results are 25 raingardens, 14 permeable pavement systems, 22 rain barrels, 3 RainXchange capture and reuse systems, and 4 additional tree plantings. Once completed, the Go Blue!

One of the best ways to keep sediment from entering the Cannon River is to install vegetative buffers on the smaller tributaries in the upper reaches of the watershed. This project is important as it aims to help identify strategic locations where buffers are needed and to assist landowners to install buffers that will directly help reduce sedimentation within the watershed. Doing so will help the watershed work towards its goal of lessening the turbidity impairment for the Cannon River. The Cannon River Watershed Partnership (CRWP) began a project a few years ago to map the land use in riparian areas for a few of the counties of the watershed. This data is important for Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) within the watershed in order to target the most effective places in the landscape for buffers and other conservation practices. One objective of this project is to complete the mapping project for Waseca and Le Sueur Counties, which will result in the majority of the watersheds riparian areas being mapped. This project will also provide incentives to landowners in Rice, Goodhue, Waseca, and Le Sueur Counties to install buffers and to sign up for conservation programs such as the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) to provide long term protection and buffers of streams within the watershed. Currently, more than 100 acres of new buffers are already enrolled to be installed because of this project.

These river corridors are very vulnerable to habitat degradation due to the potential for development. The Camp Ripley military training center is located immediately adjacent to the confluence of the Crow Wing and Mississippi Rivers. Camp Ripley contains 19 miles of Mississippi River frontage and 8 miles of Crow Wing River frontage that provide habitat for many species including 45 Species of Greatest Conservation Need. This project built upon past Camp Ripley partnership success with the Army Compatible Use Buffer program (ACUB). This federal program provided funds to protect adjacent lands from encroaching development and in the process protects the training center, water quality and wildlife habitat. Fifteen easements were secured totaling 946 acres which was 130% over our gaol of 720 acres. The largest easement was 278 acres with two others that were approximately 100 acres. The average easement size was 63 acres. These parcels are primarily forested with some wetlands. As of this writing the ACUB program has protected over 25,000 acres through conservation easements and fee title including 204 RIM easements totaling over 22,000 acres. In 2014 alone BWSR leveraged $1,000,000 in National Guard Bureau and Department of Army ACUB funds for easement acquisition. As of this writing, during the life of the ACUB program, over $33,000,000 from National Guard Bureau and Department of Army funds have been directed to BWSR for easement acquisition.  Camp Ripley is home to one of the southern-most wolf populations in Minnesota and 65 species of Greatest Conservation Need including the state’s highest population of red shouldered hawks. Red-shouldered Hawks are forest dependent species and the parcels protected in this grant help to ensure that a viable population remains in the Camp Ripley area. Likewise, wolves in Minnesota, are primarily forest species and need rather large areas to maintain pack integrity and reduce competition with neighboring packs and humans. Again, these parcels help to protect this species.       This project utilized Camp Ripley’s partnerships with the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR), MN Department of Natural Resources (DNR),The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Morrison Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) to solicit applications and to score and rank applications. The partnership uses a variety of methods to generate landowner interest and solicit applications including; mailings, open houses, direct contact with landowners and special Camp Ripley events. Applications are sorted into agricultural easements (Non-OHF) and riparian and forested lands easements (OHF). They are then scored and ranked against a GIS based system that ranks parcels based upon a number of factors including habitat quality and proximity to Camp Ripley. Applications are then funded in priority order from appropriate funding sources until all funds are used up. The application process is continuous and there is generally a considerable backlog of interested landowners at any specific point in time. Once a funding decision has been made Morrison SWCD and BWSR work together to accomplish the standard RIM easement acquisition process and the easement becomes part of the RIM portfolio.  ",2014-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Helen,McLennan,"Morrison SWCD","16776 Heron Rd ","Little Falls",MN,56345,"(320) 616-2479",helen.mclennan@mn.nacdnet.net,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Aitkin, Becker, Beltrami, Carlton, Cass, Clearwater, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, Morrison, St. Louis, Wadena","Forest Prairie Transition, Northern Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/camp-ripley-partnership-phase-iv,,,,

This project utilized the long-standing partnership between Camp Ripley, the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) and the Morrison Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) to implement natural resource management. These river corridors are important for fishing, hunting and recreation. In addition, the corridors are a high priority for protection locally and to the State of Minnesota,  MN National Guard (MN NG) and National Guard Bureau (NGB),  MN DNR fish surveys on the Crow Wing River (Staples to confluence of Mississippi) and Mississippi River (Brainerd to Little Falls) indicate high quality fish communities of walleye, muskellunge, and small-mouth bass.  Camp Ripley is also home to one of the southern-most wolf populations in Minnesota and 65 species of Greatest Conservation Need including the state’s highest population of red-shouldered hawks. The river corridors contain wildlife habitat and provide public recreation opportunities. Camp Ripley, along with the MN DNR, hosts the largest public archery hunt in the United States with over 5,000 participants. Additionally, Camp Ripley hosts other deer hunts, i.e. Disabled American Veterans (DAV), youth hunt, Deployed Soldier Archery, and Deployed Soldier Muzzleloader. A Deployed Soldier and DAV turkey hunt are also hosted along with a Trolling for the Troops fishing event. More than 13,000 hunting/angling person-days occur on Camp Ripley annually.  Camp Ripley also makes available to the general public access to over 1,800 acres for walk-in recreational activities to include hunting on Camp lands. The Crow Wing and Mississippi Rivers contain over 15 public access points from Staples to the confluence of Mississippi and from Brainerd to Little Falls respectively. This project will protect the current habitat along existing public access areas. Development along these corridors will have adverse effects to existing high quality wildlife habitat, local economies, and to the MN NG training program. Camp Ripley is located immediately adjacent to the confluence of the Crow Wing and Mississippi Rivers. Camp Ripley contains 18 miles of Mississippi River frontage and 8 miles of Crow Wing River frontage. Development adjacent to military training sites has limited the facilities’ ability to maintain their military mission. For example, the east shore of the Mississippi River has experienced high decibel levels due to weapon firing, and is also near the flight path of the Camp Ripley airfield. For that reason, the MN NG asked the partnership to focus on parcels directly adjacent to the Mississippi and Crow Wing Rivers to help reduce potential conflicts with homeowners. Camp Ripley is the largest employer in Morrison County.  The project built on the Camp Ripley partnership's success with the Army Compatible Use Buffer program (ACUB). This federal program provides funds to protect adjacent lands from encroaching development and in the process protects the training center. Since 2004, the partnership has secured over 300 easements on over 30,000 acres.  Easements that focus on forest, riparian and high value ecological habitat are funded through the OHF.  Easements that are primarily working agricultural lands and provide a direct buffer to Camp Ripley are funded through the Army Compatible Use Buffer (ACUB) program.  Although not directly leveraging funds on the same land or the same types of land, the overall project indirectly leverages federal and state funds.  Over $31 million dollars from the National Guard Bureau and Department of Army have been leveraged for landowner payments.  The program is a national leader in the Army Compatible Use Buffer (ACUB) program.

Recent advanced modeling by the MN DNR and Metropolitan Council of aquifer supplies, in conjunction with predicted demand, indicate the major metropolitan area aquifers are currently subject to extraction rates that exceed recharge. Simply stated, we are mining our groundwater. In addition to supply concerns, several surface waters within the metro area, most notably White Bear Lake, are experiencing impacts due to reduced aquifer levels associated with excessive groundwater extraction. Sustainable groundwater strategies will need to influence both the supply and use side of the water budget. Supply can be increased through efforts that infiltrate precipitation into the soil; use can be decreased by implementing efficiencies, and the use of alternative water sources. The Metro Conservation Districts (MCD) propose to provide groundwater conservation planning protocols to member districts for implementation on large-acreage, public campuses (e.g. public schools, hospitals, and government facilities). These areas are targeted due to their educational benefits, likelihood of stakeholder buy in and implementation, magnitude of potential impact, and opportunity for school district-wide implementation. This project will provide and apply a systematic approach to identify and rank groundwater conservation BMPs in terms of cost-effectiveness. Similar to the statewide benefits provided through the stormwater retrofit analysis process, MCD is confident this protocol will expand to all areas of the state, thereby ultimately providing long-lasting, far-reaching groundwater conservation efforts. Because this ranking stems from a thorough understanding of both the benefits of a project and the associated costs, the findings will inform and facilitate adoption of new groundwater conservation standards by regulatory entities.

This highly-used regional resource is home to the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Park Reserve, the largest park in the Anoka County Parks system, tallying over 700,000 visits per year. Unfortunately, Centerville Lake experiences frequent and severe algae blooms, and needs assistance to meet state water quality standards and user expectations. The lake is listed as impaired for excess nutrients; average summer phosphorus and chlorophyll-a concentrations exceed the state standards by a factor of two. Facilities at the Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Park Reserve are often closed due to health concerns associated with blue-green algae blooms. Much work has been done over the past 15 years to diagnose and control nutrient loading. Following the completion of the TMDL study, multiple watershed phosphorus management projects were completed, including standard stormwater BMPs (e.g. raingardens, biofiltration basins, and wet ponds) and a significant stormwater reuse project. Despite these efforts, water clarity remains poor, and algae blooms continue. More recently, the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) completed a series of diagnostic studies to better understand the sources and magnitude of nutrient loads. These studies show that internal phosphorus loading - specifically, sediment-phosphorus release - is the primary nutrient source for Centerville Lake, and the primary driver of the severe algae blooms. The Rice Creek Watershed District is proposing to control internal phosphorus loading by inactivating sediment phosphorus with aluminum sulfate (alum). The proposed alum treatment targets the largest source of phosphorus to Centerville Lake, and is the most impactful and cost-effective tool available to restore water clarity in Centerville Lake. Factors that could negatively affect the longevity of the proposed alum treatment were assessed (i.e. common carp and watershed loading), and found to be negligible. The proposed project will provide control of sediment phosphorus release and result in attainment of state water quality standards. Most importantly, the proposed project will control nuisance algae blooms, restoring an important and highly-used regional resource.

The Blue Earth River Basin needs to reduce fecal coliform from wastewater treatment facilities, rural household septic systems, livestock, wildlife and pets. Most livestock manure is used appropriately as a fertilizer and soil amendment, however the sheer volume of manure produced in the watershed means that runoff of even a very small percentage of what is applied may contaminate surface waters. The MN River Basin needs land use practices that reduce the amount of sediment and nutrients reaching the river. Installation of riparian buffers, streambank stabilization, water storage, surface tile intakes, and crop residue management help to reduce sediment transport. On farmland, conservation tillage and increased crop diversity including pasture can reduce sediment loss considerably. Crop nutrient management plans keep nitrogen and phosphorus out of waters, as do improvements in private and public wastewater treatment systems. In cities and developing areas, stormwater management and construction erosion control prevent sediment runoff. The Urban Outreach Specialist will also work directly with wellhead protection issues.

However, over a decade later, and with over 5,000 easements and growing, it became prudent (particularly with the advent of more advanced technology) to reexamine, update, and enhance that database. Attributes and boundaries for easements and conservation practices (planned land cover types based on the NRCS Field Office Technical Guide) that previously only existed in paper format were scanned and digitized, then added to a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) database for the RIM Reserve easement program. The GIS database is flexible enough to implement future easement monitoring technology that can capture stewardship data such as easement condition and compliance, habitat quality, easement maintenance, and enhancement. Prior to this undertaking, it would have been impossible to implement a modern long-term conservation easement stewardship plan. Easement boundaries only existed on paper and an outdated database placed limitation on reporting and analysis. As a result of this project, the framework is in place for implementing such a plan. A modern database is being implemented. 220,329 acres of conservation practices within 5,882 easements have been digitized into a GIS database, and a GIS-based monitoring field application has gone through pilot testing. BWSR now has increased capabilities to target new easement projects using GIS reporting and analysis, as well as ensure the quality of past projects through easement stewardship and monitoring. This maximizes the return of each dollar spent, benefitting Minnesotans through better water quality, reduced soil erosion, and enhanced wildlife habitat. Project Results Use and Dissemination As a result of this project, a conservation easement database that is more streamlined has been implemented, giving BWSR staff the ability to edit and update easement boundaries and attributes, conduct geospatial reporting and analysis using GIS technology, create online delivery applications available via BWSR's website, and develop and test future easement stewardship and monitoring applications.

This project is important for several reasons. First, identifying gully sites and implementing BMPs to stop active erosion will reduce phosphorus loading to the St. Croix River by hundreds of pounds per year. Water will be collected and infiltrated on-site, which will drastically reduce the amount of phosphorus and sediment entering the St. Croix River. In addition, the St. Croix escarpment is home to many rare and native species. The continued erosion of this area causes degradation to the habitat of these species. By stabilizing the area, the rare and native plant and animal species will continue to thrive in their natural environment. The St. Croix River itself is also home to rare species, including native mussels. These organisms will benefit from the reduction in phosphorus and sediment reaching the St. Croix River.

The Pennington Soil and Water Conservation District is therefore targeting the major sediment sources along the river. The Pennington SWCD and the Red Lake Watershed District have a long history of working together to install conservation practices. This project will stabilize 1700' of river bank and reduce sedimentation from the project area by nearly 100%. The reduction in sediment will also reduce the pace the Thief River Falls Reservoir is filling in and losing capacity. In the past, it was estimated the reservoir would require dredging every 50 years. The last dredging was needed only 35 years later and it appears the reservoir is speeding towards the next dredging at an even faster pace. Treatment of this water for drinking is a major expense to the City. Reducing pollutants will be a benefit to those costs and the residents of Thief River Falls.

Red Lake County SWCD identified these two project locations as high priority due to the large amount of sediment these projects have contributed to the Red Lake River. Those impacts will continue as the erosion accelerates and they become deeper and wider over time. The high sediment loading is affecting water quality, aquatic life, downstream water supply sources, and recreational use of the Red Lake River. Over time, the volume of soil that has been washed into the river is about 4,000 cubic yards. Imagine a football field piled with 2 feet of soil from sideline to sideline and endzone to endzone. Current estimates are that the annual load of sediment to the river is about 1,100 tons each year from these two locations. Stopping that sediment from reaching the river will protect spawning habitat for fish including Lake Sturgeon, reduce the costs of water filtration for downstream communities and help to solve the water quality impairments caused by turbidity in the Red River Basin.

This effort builds on two previous LSOHC grants to control invasive species and plant trees as part of a long-term restoration strategy by Audubon Minnesota and key partners to sustain diverse and productive floodplain forests and the wildlifeand birds they support.","The Mississippi River from Hastings to the Iowa border contains some of the largest tracts of floodplain forest along the entire UpperMississippi River. These forests and mixed wetlands cover thousands of acres and are critical to many species of birds and otherwildlife, including wood ducks, which use these areas for nesting and feeding.While historically diverse in the number, age, and size of tree species, much of the forest now consists of silver maple ranging from 50-70 years old. These trees are expected to live another 50-70+ years, after which they will die naturally. Unfortunately, when trees arelost, reed canary grass and other invasive species move in and prevent natural regeneration. This is occurring throughout the projectarea, and without aggressive, long-term management these floodplain forests will decline or in some locations disappear completely.Floodplain forest regeneration is a slow process taking decades to accomplish. By selectively controlling invasive species andregenerating trees the forest can be maintained long-term. Restoring forest at small sites within larger tracts will ensure that a diversityof tree species, sizes, and ages are present. This approach over time will maintain large contiguous blocks of forest and provide habitatfor many wildlife species, including rare birds like ceruleuan warbler and red-shouldered hawk.This proposal seeks funding to continue floodplain forest enhancement throughout the project area. The number of sites needingenhancement or restoration is extensive. To date we have completed or begun work on 15 sites totaling over 500 acres. This proposalsignificantly expands our scope and includes 25 sites covering up to 4,300 acres. Sites were determined in collaboration with MinnesotaDepartment of Natural Resources, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and US Army Corps of Engineers and identify locations under seriousthreat of losing critical floodplain forest. All sites are located on public lands within state forests, WMA's, Upper Mississippi RiverNational Wildlife and Fish Refuge, or US Army Corps of Engineers owned lands open to hunting and fishing.Funding will be used to control invasive species, especially reed canary grass, plant trees of various sizes and species, and maintain plantings.

The VRWJPO and partners will perform an alum treatment in Alimagnet Lake to reduce the amount of internal phosphorus load within the lake. Alimagnet Lake is a nutrient (phosphorus) impaired water in Apple Valley and Burnsville with significant public use that receives stormwater runoff from a 985-acre urban subwatershed. The TMDL for Alimagnet Lake was completed in 2015 and identified both external and internal phosphorus load reductions needed to meet water quality standards. Once the TMDL and WRAPS were approved, the VRWJPO and Cities completed a subwatershed assessment (SWA) that identified targeted, prioritized, and measurable practices to reduce external load and have systematically been implementing projects identified in the SWA. The partners have reduced external phosphorus load by 64.4 lbs, which is more than the needed external phosphorus load reduction identified in the TMDL. With the external load addressed, the focus is now shifting to the internal phosphorus load. Per BWSR CWF Grant Policy requirements for internal phosphorus load projects, the VRWJPO and Cities completed an alum treatment feasibility study for the lake. The result of the study provides significant information about the lake alum treatment including treatment planning elements, dosing and timing recommendations for the treatment, a cost estimate, and an estimated internal phosphorus load reduction of 115 lbs, which equates to 11.5 lbs/year assuming a 10-year lifespan. The alum treatment's estimated pollutant reduction would bring the in-lake concentrations of total phosphorus to levels below the water quality standards, so the lake could be de-listed. Alimagnet Lake is one of five lakes identified as a recreational lake in the Vermillion River Watershed Management Plan. The lake is a high priority for restoration for the VRWJPO and partner cities. The lake has a very engaged lake association that also wants improved water quality and have been active in addressing lake water quality issues. The lake is surrounded primarily by homes, but the cities share a large park on the lake's southern shore, which gets significant use from pet owners, cross-country skiers, walkers, snowshoers, skijorers, canoeists, kayakers, and cyclists.

",,,,"LOCAL LEVERAGED FUNDS",,,,,"Apple Valley, City of","Local/Regional Government",,,"The City of Apple Valley will continue efforts to improve water quality in Keller Lake by expanding Whitney Pond (KL-P2) to provide phosphorus load reductions contributing to the lake's nutrient impairment. Whitney Pond is a 2-acre stormwater basin located at Burnsville's Lac Lavon Park and Keller Park in Apple Valley. The pond is in Burnsville on land owned by the City of Burnsville. The pond treats stormwater from a significant portion of the Keller Lake watershed in Apple Valley that would otherwise drain to Keller Lake untreated. Keller Lake is a DNR classified natural environment lake that has been listed on the impaired waters list for nutrients since 2002. Keller Lake is tributary to Crystal Lake in Burnsville. Crystal Lake is a recreational lake that was delisted from the impaired waters list in 2018. This targeted project will help protect Crystal Lake and provide measurable improvements to Keller Lake nutrient loads. Since the construction of Whitney Pond, the Crystal, Keller, and Lee Lakes Nutrient Impairment and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Report and Earley Lake Water Quality Assessment was completed in 2011 outlining a wasteload reduction of 130 lbs of Total Phosphorus (TP) per year for the City of Apple Valley. In 2017, the City of Apple Valley completed the Keller Lake Subwatershed Assessment (Barr, 2017) to evaluate options for additional stormwater quality treatment within the Keller Lake watershed. Because Whitney Pond does not achieve all the nutrient load reduction required by the Keller Lake TMDL, one of the most efficient targeted locations identified in the subwatershed assessment for potential water quality improvements was an expansion of Whitney Pond. As the final pond before Keller Lake, the existing pond is overcapacity for its current loading from the large contributing watershed. The project will make use of green space in public ownership to expand the treatment volume provided by the existing BMP to achieve an additional 7 lbs of total phosphorus treatment annually. By implementing this project, along with other projects installed in the watershed, the City would meet 79% of the assigned wasteload allocation for external loading. The proposed expansion would be located primarily in open space owned by the City of Apple Valley, but would also impact land located within the City of Burnsville. The City has been working with a consultant to complete a WBIF (Watershed Based Implementation Funds) grant-funded feasibility study on options for expanding the pond, which has included reviewing multiple concepts and public engagement. The pond's location near two parks with heavily used trail system make it a suitable and sensible location for public outreach. Educational signage around the proposed project would provide an opportunity for public education on water quality and the targeted approaches the City has taken to meet our water quality goals. Including a native buffer around the pond edge will enhance pollinator habitat in the neighborhood and surrounding parkland. With support from Dakota County , the BDWMO, and the City of Burnsville, the City is eager to implement this targeted stormwater treatment project to achieve reduced TP loading to the lake by approximately 7 additional pounds of TP per year. The project is on targeted priority implementation lists for the City and the Black Dog WMO. The project compliments previously completed external load reduction projects installed by Apple Valley and Burnsville and also supports recently completed internal load reductions, including in-lake alum treatments completed in 2019 and 2021, and native aquatic plant transplant projects that occurred in 2020 and 2022.",2024-04-01,,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Samantha,Berger,"Apple Valley, City of","7100 West 147th Street","Apple Valley",MN,55124,952-953-2400,sberger@cityofapplevalley.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Dakota,,"Lower Minnesota River ",https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/fy24-cwf-keller-lake-targeted-stormwater-treatment-project,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,"Annie Felix-Gerth",no

In recent times, the ditch has eroded from its original shape to a channel of steep gradients and unstable banks. This has resulted in head cutting of the channel and nearly continuous channel erosion and bank sloughing with the effect of depositing up to an estimated annual average of 700 tons of sediment into the Red River. With a grant from the Clean Water Fund, the Red Lake Watershed District proposes to construct a project to stabilize the outlet channel. Drop structures/spillways will be used to flatten the channel profile to non-erosive velocities thereby eliminating the head cutting, bank sloughing and transport of sediments to the Red River. The cross section of the channel will be reestablished and critical areas will be armored to prevent future bank cutting. These repairs should reduce the turbidity impairments in the Red River. This project is a component of a larger plan for the Grand Marais watershed that also includes restoration of the original Grand Marais Channel.

",,"A Conservation Legacy in Jeopardy Native grasslands are the most threatened ecosystem in Minnesota.  The LSOHC defined Prairie Section has suffered the greatest habitat loss of any of the five sections examined by the Council. Furthermore, only a third of the remaining habitat in the Prairie Section is permanently protected. To compound the problem, in the next five years approximately 800,000 acres of Minnesota’s conservation lands enrolled in the federal Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) will expire. Unless action is taken to continue protection of these lands by using a combination of conservation programs, many will likely be converted to cropland, eliminating most of the wildlife habitat and associated ecosystem benefits. This project piloted new and innovative approaches to securing conservation easements to permanently protect large assemblages of critical grassland habitat.  The need for this private lands approach in the Prairie Section is essential because ownership patterns in this landscape include many private landowners with smaller parcels that require custom-tailored conservation solutions. These solutions often involve crafting easements that assure conservation of the grasslands while also working with the landowner to make the management of the grasslands profitable and therefore, sustainable.   Lands targeted for protection through this pilot met the following criteria: Near or within the Core Areas identified in the Prairie Plan. Within approximately two miles of permanently protected land. Establishing connections to permanently protected land wherever possible. Within approximately five miles of a viable producer with a proven track record of managing grasslands with livestock and willing to own land protected by a permanent easement mandating grassland conservation management methods and practices. Low production cropland. Once these priority grassland complexes had been identified, the project partners tested three important protection elements in order to determine how to best implement a cost-effective grasslands program at a larger scale:  First, landowners within these identified complexes were offered a menu of land protection options to assess what is of greatest interest or application in this landscape.   One of the options included a model in which a non-profit partner, The Conservation Fund (TCF), would use its revolving fund to acquire land in fee from a landowner not interested in maintaining their land as a working grassland. TCF would hold ownership until funds are available to sell a conservation easement to an easement holder such as Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) or the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR).  Once the easement is in place, TCF would subsequently sell the underlying fee, now reduced in value by the conservation easement, to a pre-identified local producer.   This approach allows TCF to act quickly to acquire land that would otherwise be sold and converted to row crops. The value of the easement, and the value of the land sold to the local producer, will be determined by an appraisal.    Outcome - This option was investigated, but unfortunately due to a number of factors was not chosen by any landowners. Another option was for the landowner to sell a conservation easement directly to the BWSR or the MLT.  All easement acquisition funds were allocated to BWSR.  Once specific easements and their respective holders were identified, BWSR allocated the funds necessary to MLT to complete their acquisition through a State approved contract.  Outcome - One MLT easement was recorded on 284 acres in Pope County. Two RIM easements were recorded for 45.8 acres in Chippewa County and 129.5 acres in Murray County. The second element being tested was how to best implement grasslands protection in a private, working landscape. This included developing conservation easements and management plans that protect the important grassland and prairie habitats while simultaneously providing the agricultural producers with residual economic value through restricted grazing or haying. This is a critical issue for the ultimate success of the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan. Outcome - BWSR, MLT, and TCF worked together to develop a grazing plan template and for the MLT secured easement a conservation grazing plan was developed and is being implemented that allows a level of utilization of the grassland while prioritizing wildlife habitat.  Finally, this pilot project also explored how BWSR and non-profit partners can most cost effectively value and secure these unique conservation easements. This included an evaluation of all of the costs, potential leverage of federal programs, timing and landowner interest in the easements’ value to bring a program to scale.  Outcome - Valuations of easement payments to landowners between the RIM program and individual appraisals show general agreement in compensation.   This pilot project worked with local producers who were interested in promoting conservation compatible agriculture and who are interested in conservation easements that allow them to remain competitive in today’s climate of escalating agricultural land prices. This approach allowed state conservation funds to potentially leverage current or future federal funding via the Farm & Ranchland Protection Program, Grassland Reserve Program, or CRP. Due primarily to unavailability of federal funds non were utilized on the three secured easements. Management costs for maintaining grassland habitat will be largely borne by the local producer as part of their operation rather than be a continuous financial burden on the government. Finally, this approach also keeps land on the local tax rolls and helps to promote a diversified local economy. As an attachment to this final report is a seven page document that goes into detail on each of the points being piloted with this project.   The conclusions of this project included: 1.    BWSR’s RIM program is high volume, one size fits all.  While MLT/TCF are lower volume but can be flexible when necessary.   2.    At an individual easement level combining State government and non-profit (MLT and TCF for example) programs was not shown to be needed and did not provide benefits beyond what each entities programs could offer individually. While it is extremely valuable to have both program options operating within the same geography and acting in complementary fashions, they are different enough that combining them into one program did not create an advantage. 3.    It is important that a landowner have options that include both government and non-government easement programs so they can decide which works best for them. 4.    Valuations of easement payments to landowners between the RIM program and individual appraisals show general agreement in compensation.      5.    BWSR and MLT/TCF are able to utilize RIM or other funds from various appropriations to secure an easement.  For example, the Chippewa site would not have been permanently protected if BWSR was not able to utilize both OHF and Bonding funding.  This demonstrates how public and private entities can combine funding sources to enhance their effectiveness and why coordination of public and private programs is important.  6.    This pilot delivered a very successful working grassland habitat protection project as one of its outcomes, which included a model or template conservation grazing plan. MLT will monitor this property 2x per year to ensure compliance with the conservation easement terms.  7.    Landowner interest will fluctuate with commodity prices and land values making the timing of appropriations important to get right.  8.    Conservation easements satisfy only a portion of the landowner’s overall goals for their properties and must work in concert with the other uses and needs of private landowners.   ",2013-07-01,2017-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tim," Koehler","Board of Water and Soil Resources","520 Lafayette Road North ","St. Paul",MN,55155,651-296-6745,tim.koehler@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,,"Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/grasslands-future,,,,

Karst is defined as a landscape with depressions such as sinkholes caused by underground erosion that dissolves the limestone bedrock making this region home to one of the largest collections of freshwater springs in the United States and some of the best trout fishing in the Midwest. However, the hollow nature of the karst terrain also makes this region especially vulnerable to ground water contamination from bacteria and nutrients from livestock manure and sediment resulting from soil erosion. The Root, Whitewater, and adjacent watersheds have considerably more livestock than western portions of the region. Grazing livestock helps keep more land in perennial vegetation as either pasture or hay. Pasture and hay land have been shown to significantly reduce soil erosion rates (compared to row crops) and nutrient and bacteria runoff. Providing technical assistance to producers is one way to encourage them to adopt managed grazing practices that benefit water resources as well as their economic returns on marginal lands. Since 2009, 35 producers have received help with developing and implementing grazing management plans on 3000 acres. About 30 more producers have plans developed that are ready for implementation. Most of the funding for installing the grazing practices comes from the USDA Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP). Current EQIP contracts are paying over $850,000 to Root River producers.

Unused wells can serve as direct entry points for surface contaminants into the groundwater system, so capping unused wells prevents contaminants from moving vertically within the aquifer system. 2. Conduct Desktop Analysis: Complete an analysis of abandoned farm locations inside the County's DWSMAs. 3. Complete Well Sealing Workshops: As part of the grant, we will hold three (3) community clinics for landowners to test their private drinking water source and learn what to do if it is dangerous. 4. Provide Technical Assistance: Provide landowners with advice and help on best practices for decreasing groundwater pollution concerns. 5. Conduct Well Assessments: Evaluate the condition and potential contamination concerns of existing water wells in high-priority locations to identify prospective well sealing sites. 6. Implement Well Sealing Measures: Make it easier to close thirty (30) abandoned or underused wells, preventing contaminants from entering groundwater resources directly. Program Implementation: 1. Education and Outreach: -Create educational materials such as booklets and online tools to enlighten the public about the importance of groundwater and drinking water protection. -Hold workshops, seminars, and community events to engage landowners and the public in groundwater conservation and protection. 2. Well Assessments: -Conduct systematic assessments of existing water wells in high priority DWSMA locations to evaluate their condition, proximity to potential contamination sources, and pollution susceptibility. -Prioritize wells based on vulnerability and potential impact on drinking water supplies. -Create a thorough database of examined wells, including their status, sealing needs, and any pollution hazards that have been discovered. 3. Technical Assistance: -Establish a team to provide technical guidance and assistance to landowners. -Offer on-site consultations and visits to assess potential contamination risks and provide recommendations for improved practices. 4.

It is nationally known as a prime fresh-water steelhead fishery and is managed as a cold-water trout fishery for native species including brook trout. The Knife River is characterized by steep gradients, multiple water-falls and cascades, tea-colored water, and remnant old-growth forest cover types including white pine, Norway pine and white cedar. For all its attributes, the Knife River does not meet water quality standards for sediments and turbidity. This project will restore two severely eroding streambank sites along the river identified as producing the greatest sediment loads of the entire river system. The benefits from a stable channel in this location include reduced sediment downstream, less sediment pollution into Lake Superior and protection of native riparian plant communities. Toe wood combined with rock stream vanes will decrease bluff erosion and create beneficial fisheries habitat through the introduction of much needed woody debris. Both project sites will be fully restored and stabilized with state-of-the-art engineering practices that have been successfully implemented on North Shore streams. Once the sites are fully restored, sediment loading to the Knife River will be reduced by 17 percent.

This project kicks off the implementation strategies to reduce phosphorus entering Little Rock Lake through a coordinated effort with Benton and Morrison SWCD's the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Little Rock Lake Association, the poultry and livestock industry and other partners. Numerous conservation practices will be installed by providing financial and technical assistance to landowners within the watershed. The conservation practices identified for this project will reduce pollutant loading to Little Rock Lake by up to 400 tons of sediment and 500 lbs of phosphorus each year. Another 700 lbs of phosphorus savings will result from enhanced monitoring and management of crop nutrient needs.

Both lakes are approximately 40 acres in size and surrounded by watersheds with moderate to low imperviousness. Both lakes are included on the MPCA's 303(d) list as impaired for aquatic recreation due to excessive nutrients. Lake Augusta and Sunfish Lake were included in a watershed restoration and protection strategies (WRAPS) study and total maximum daily load (TMDL) performed from 2012 to 2014. The WRAPS study identified internal loading as the primary source of phosphorus to each lake and recommended in-lake alum treatments to improve water quality in each lake to achieve MPCA water quality standards. The goal of the Lake Augusta and Sunfish Lake alum treatments is to reduce internal phosphorus loading in each lake by at least 80 percent, resulting in phosphorus load reductions of 252 lbs/year in Lake Augusta and 129 lbs/year in Sunfish Lake. These reductions will meet the load reductions identified in the WRAPS and TMDL report and are essentially the only feasible options to achieve MPCA water quality standards in these lakes. The watersheds to these lakes are not densely developed and stormwater best management practices are already present, reducing phosphorus loading to the lakes from external sources. In addition to the alum treatment, the LMRWMO will implement a voluntary rain barrel program, a shoreline buffer survey on Sunfish Lake to identify potential locations for improvements, and targeted communication with residents to encourage buffer enhancement. These efforts will further reduce the phosphorus reaching the lake from external sources. Due to the very limited external load, alum treatment of these lakes is expected to be effective for 20 years or more.

We will install at least 350 linear feet of restored lakeshore and 3,000 sq ft of native plant stormwater treatment with an emphasis on bioengineering techniques, native plants and locating buffers/swales/rain gardens at points of concentrated overland flow into the lake. By targeting properties that are eroding and/or with concentrated overland flow to the lake we will reduce suspended solids discharge by 6,300 lbs/yr and phosphorus by 0.6 lbs/yr. We will also establish emergent native plants which indirectly improve water quality. This project has two purposes. First is to improve water quality in this impaired lake. The area presently has no stormwater treatment. Lakeshore buffers placed at locations with concentrated overland flow to the lake will serve as the only stormwater treatment in the drainage area, achieving large first cut reductions for the entire up-gradient area. Second, the project is part of a larger effort to change the culture of intense lakeshore manicuring that impacts water quality at this lake and others. Grant funds are sought to expand a 7 year-old program by the Long Lake Improvement District (LLID) for near-shore water quality projects. That program has installed 19 projects to date, but present demand exceeds locally available funding. Each project will require an erosion correction component, using bioengineering techniques and native vegetation. The Isanti SWCD will use grant funds to provide a sub-grant to the Long Lake Improvement Association (LLIA) for project installations. The Long Lake Improvement District (LLID) will contribute to the project by providing cash match ($4,800 annually) and managing project installations in cooperation with Hayland Woods Native Nursery.

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) channelized the Lower Otter Tail River in the early 1950's to improve drainage and provide flood control. The channelized reach of the Otter Tail River currently provides little functional aquatic or riparian corridor habitat and reduces connectivity between the lower 10 miles of the river and the upper 13 miles. The vision for the project includes establishment of a 600-foot to 1/2-mile-wide protected corridor along the river channel, setting back existing spoil banks, reconnecting oxbows, construction of a natural meandering river channel, and restoration of riparian wetland and prairie plant communities. The project will restore degraded habitat and reestablish natural levels of connectivity between the river and its floodplain. The Otter Tail River is currently designated as a MN State Water Trail. Outdoor recreation will benefit from the restoration by expanding opportunities to enjoy wildlife through improved kayaking and canoeing along the river. The Buffalo-Red River Watershed District (BRRWD) began development of this project in 2015 by initiating conversations with other Local Government Units, and the MN Department of Natural Resources. In 2016, the BRRWD was the recipient of Section 319 grant funding through the MN Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), and Clean Water Fund grant funding through the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR). These grant funds allowed for survey work and the development of a detailed concept plan for river restoration. Concurrent with those efforts, the BRRWD began discussions with the USACE. This led to partnering with the USACE on a Section 1135 feasibility evaluation, and further refinement of the river restoration and setback levees alignment proposed in future phases of the project. Potentially the USACE can bring $10 million to restore portions of the Otter Tail River affected by their 1950's straightening work. The 1135 program leaves the responsibility for land rights to project proposers which is the reason for this application. The partnership between the BRRWD and BWSR will use the Reinvest In Minnesota (RIM) Program to secure, maintain, and monitor easements within the corridor.

The affected section of Minnehaha Creek was straightened when development first came to St. Louis Park in the early 1900s. At that time, wetlands were filled and the stream channel was altered to allow for industrial development around the creek. Re-meandering the creek through this half-mile section of St. Louis Park will improve the ecology of the area in several ways. By modifying the channel to more closely mimic the original course, the project will increase riparian buffers and stabilize the streambank. It will also allow for vegetative restoration and improved water quality treatment practices. Through this partnership between the City of St. Louis Park and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, with funding provided through the Board of Water and Soil Resources, the city hopes to reinvigorate interest in the creek and ensure that it serves as a high-functioning part of the city's natural environment for years to come.

For this step, the following data was assembled: public land, proximity to existing storm sewer networks, contributing land area, City of Minneapolis CIPs, TMDL studies, and past BMPs studies for the area. The second step was to fill data gaps. This was done through the use of field surveys and as-built information. The third step was to develop a model and update it with it with BMPs. The BMP hydrology was modeling with P8 and XP-SWMM. Total phosphorus (TP) loading rates and removal rates were modeling in P8. Using this model, stormwater BMPs were identified and preliminary sized for nutrient reductions and cost. The fourth step was then to evaluate the cost-benefit of each BMP and assemble a prioritization list on which would provide the highest return on investment. When normalizing costs they ranged from $5- $25 per cubic foot of treatment volume. When normalizing costs in terms of dollars per pound of TP removed over 20-years, costs ranged from $644-$8,014 per pound of TP. Beyond cost, each BMP was also ranked for total phosphorus removal, effectiveness of total phosphorus removal cost rank, and design challenges. The final step was to develop a report that summarized the methods, the modeling results, the BMP locations, cost and removal efficiencies, and recommendations. This report has been completed and as noted, identified 13 potential BMPs and all of the data that informed the development of those BMPs. Treatment efficiency ranged from 3-74 pounds per year of TP removal, with an average removal of 31 pounds.

This partnership program permanently added grassland habitat and reduced fragmentation by combining the efforts of the Outdoor Heritage Fund, Clean Water Fund, and bonding to secure buffers adjacent to public waters. Building upon the 100-foot RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund, we added an additional buffer width (up to NRCS 393 standard for CRP buffers) to make clean water buffers more attractive and productive for wildlife. This program contributed toward the development of new habitat complexes and enhancement of existing habitats by expanding the size of narrow corridors and connecting them to large, permanently protected grasslands, wetlands, and shallow lakes. Furthermore, these wildlife buffers were targeted for landscapes with existing permanently protected habitat to accelerate progress toward achieving minimum thresholds of grass habitat required by waterfowl and other Species of Greatest Conservation Need. Many Species of Greatest Conservation Need benefit from large habitat patches and some require a minimum threshold of grassland habitat within a landscape.  Buffers are commonly viewed as simply a water quality practice, but buffers have notable positive impacts on wildlife due their unique upland and riverine habitat interaction.

OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Many of Minnesota's conservation districts' most experienced conservation professionals and practitioners are nearing retirement age but due to budget constraints will not be replaced until they have left employment. Consequently, Minnesota is missing a great opportunity to transfer knowledge and experience to the next generation responsible for Minnesota's conservation. While college graduates with conservation-related degrees are knowledgeable in technology, theory, and research methods, their practical, on-the-ground skills need development. Communicating with landowners and adjusting designs for field nuances are vital skills for the success of conservation projects and are best learned from seasoned professionals. In turn, apprentices bring knowledge of emerging technologies and other innovations to improve the quality and productivity of current conservation efforts. This allows for a cross-pollination of ideas and solutions for natural resource challenges. From 2011 to 2012, 65 students were placed with 60 Conservation Districts. During this time, the apprentices planted 33,339 trees, took 5,219 samples to monitor water quality; provided environmental education to 1,495 people; conducted 1,372 surveys; restored 1,542 acres of habitat through invasive species removal; completed 466,773 square feet of rain garden planting and maintenance; 272,173 square feet of erosion control and shoreline restoration; and 12,933,645 square feet of seeding. Due to the 2011 state shut down, a shifting of allocated funds allowed for the placement of an additional 35 students with conservation districts in May of 2013. This program has benefits to both students and conservation districts. 100% of apprentices indicated the hands-on experience gained during the apprenticeship will enhance their future academic studies, and that they now have increased technical conservation skills and are more prepared for a future career in conservation. 98% of the Districts were satisfied with the work their apprentices completed, and 100% indicate they would participate in the program again. Managers also indicated that the work conducted by the apprentices increased the amount of conservation practices delivered by their districts during the program period. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Information from the project has been disseminated through reports to LCCMR, press releases by BWSR and the Governor's Office, local press releases by SWCDs, and through the Conservation Corps newsletter and annual report. Information was used to recruit apprentices and increase awareness of the project. Communication and outreach activities include the aforementioned reports, press releases, and electronic newsletters. Additionally, BWSR and Conservation Corps staff conducted outreach to SWCDs to find optimal matches between districts and apprentices.

",,"Minnesota's primary strategy to mitigate the loss of CRP contract acres is to target expiring contracts for enrollment into continuous CRP practices (like buffers) and permanent easements for the most beneficial practices (e.g. wetland restoration, grasslands, and buffers). This program model is a proven strategy to provide landowners with an option to keep targeted conservation on the land when economic incentives may lead to a switch to row crop production. This program established permanent buffers that provide both improved wildlife habitat and water quality. For example, a buffer of 100 feet generally serves to protect water quality, while an additional 100 feet for wildlife greatly enhances nesting opportunities for wildlife. Establishing  a minimum of 200 feet on each side of a stream for a total of 400 feet, plus the open water, creates a block of habitat for nesting birds and a critical link between other permanently protected habitats. Criteria used to evaluate and prioritize buffers funded under this phase of the program included building upon Clean Water Fund buffers, proximity to other permanently protected habitat, buffers within a designated shallow lake watershed, proximity to lands open to public hunting, plant diversity, overall size, and the type of water resource being buffered. A RIM Buffers application process for landowners was utilized for the program. The process built upon the established RIM Buffer enrollments supported by the Outdoor Heritage Fund and Clean Water Fund in the previous funding cycles. In future years, it is hoped that a broader buffer initiative (full field or all land within the floodplain of larger order streams) will create increased demand for this program as wider buffers provide better habitat. Further, buffers that are put in proximity to other grasslands also function at a higher level for grassland nesting birds and other wildlife. The $2.2 million from OHF was used for perpetual RIM easements that built upon RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund allocation of $2.2 million. This creates an equal partnership of both programs to accomplish a single project with enhanced outcomes that could not otherwise be obtained with a single funding source.

",,"September 2011: BWSR Board authorized the RIM Buffer program October 2011: BWSR Board reviewed timeline and ranking criteria November 2011: SWCD program training and rollout of the RFP process where SWCDs requested project areas. January 2012: SWCDs requested local project areas, which determined where eligible projects could occur. February-March 2012: First landowner signup period was held. SWCDs marketed the program to landowners, completed an initial review of eligibility and scoring, and submitted applications to BWSR for funding consideration. Subsequent signups were announced and held to fund additional easements, which followed a similar process of screening committee review and allocation of funding to funded applications. Summer 2012: BWSR completed first funding allocations to applications. Applications first underwent an eligiblity review and confirmation that sites met appropriation guidelines. Applications were funded if they met the minimum wildlife benefits score. Those that did not meet this minimum score were not eligible and were either directed to secure a standalone CWF buffer, or to enroll in a different program. A total of 46 easements were funded and acquired. 2014: Last easements acquired with these funds were recorded. 2014-Onward: Restorations occurred. BWSR is held to the statutory requirement that requires restoration of the easements we acquire. This restoration includes establishment of acceptable vegetation, if the current cover does not adequately meet site goals. This partnership program permanently added grassland habitat and reduced fragmentation by combining the efforts of the Outdoor Heritage Fund, Clean Water Fund, and bonding to secure buffers adjacent to public waters. Building upon the 100-foot RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund, we added an additional buffer width (up to NRCS 393 standard for CRP buffers) to make clean water buffers more attractive and productive for wildlife. This program contributed toward the development of new habitat complexes and enhancement of existing habitats by expanding the size of narrow corridors and connecting them to large, permanently protected grasslands, wetlands, and shallow lakes. Furthermore, these wildlife buffers were targeted for landscapes with existing permanently protected habitat to accelerate progress toward achieving minimum thresholds of grass habitat required by waterfowl and other Species of Greatest Conservation Need. Many Species of Greatest Conservation Need benefit from large habitat patches and some require a minimum threshold of grassland habitat within a landscape. The Sedge wren, a Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) most commonly associated with grassland habitat, is encountered in buffer areas. Bird use is influenced by buffer width, with greater widths experiencing greater abundance and diversity of birds and grassland species. Buffers are commonly viewed as simply a water quality practice, but buffers have notable positive impacts on wildlife due their unique upland and riverine habitat interaction. Not only are upland grasslands protected or restored, but detrimental impacts to stream-reliant biota is reduced. Many species of amphibians, such as southern MN's Northern Cricket Frog (endangered) rely on aquatic habitat during the breeding season and then spend most of their lives in upland habitat. In Southeastern MN, reptiles such as the Blanding's Turtle (endangered) rely on meandering streams, rivers, and adjacent lands. A scoring mechanism was employed to fund high quality wildlife buffer enhancements and target these funds. Buffers for wildlife under this program were prioritized based upon their ability to enhance public land habitats (e.g., WPA’s or WMA’s), protect expiring CRP lands, add key nesting cover to wetland/upland complexes, provide maximum water quality benefits, and enhance shallow lakes. Agricultural expansion, biofuel production, and expiration of Conservation Reserve Program contracts had accelerated the loss of grass habitat in Minnesota. At the time this program was implemented, Minnesota had just over 200,000 acres of CRP in buffer practices at various stages of their 10-15 year contracts, some soon to expire. The RIM Buffer program served as a complement to other programs to secure these expiring acres.

This exodus is being driven by high land and commodity prices, and increased pressure for alternative uses and declining federal budgets for conservation programs. Minnesota's primary strategy to mitigate the loss of CRP is to target expiring contracts for enrollment into Continuous CRP (CCRP) practices (like buffers) and permanent easements for the most beneficial practices (e.g. wetland restoration, grasslands, and buffers). This program is one proven strategy to provide landowners with a sound option to keep targeted conservation on the land when economic incentives favor row crop production. This partnership program establishes permanent buffers that provide both critical water quality improvements and improved nesting habitat. For example, a buffer of 100' generally serves to protect water quality, while adding an additional 100' for wildlife greatly enhances nesting opportunities for wildlife. Establishing a minimum of 200' on each side of a stream for a total of 400' plus the natural corridor that already exists creates a block of habitat for nesting birds and a critical link between other permanently protected habitats.Criteria used to evaluate and prioritize buffers funded under this program include: does buffer build upon a Clean Water Fund Buffer, proximity to other permanently protected habitat, buffers within a designated shallow lake watershed, proximity to lands open to public hunting, plant diversity, overall size, and type of water resource being buffered. A competitive RIM Buffers application process for landowners will be used. The first four phases of this program have created landowner interest that far exceeds available funding. The goal for this new phase will be to increase funding from both LSOHC but also increase match from Clean Water Funding as well as USDA under new farm bill provisions. Wider buffers can provide longer term water quality treatment and provide better habitat. Buffers that are put in proximity to other grasslands also function at a higher level within the landscape for grassland nesting birds and other wildlife.RIM Buffers program delivery will be supported by Minnesota's Farm Bill Assistance Partnership which includes Minnesota BWSR, USDA - Natural Resources Conservation Service, Minnesota DNR, Soil and Water Conservation Districts, Prairie Pothole Joint Venture, Pheasants Forever, LCCMR and numerous local partners. Additionally, the RIM program will be delivered through SWCD's and administered by Minnesota BWSR.We propose that the LSOHC fund $4.544M in perpetual state RIM buffer easements that will build equally upon the RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund and/or new USDA programs such as CREP.

There are two components to this project. The first initiative provides costshare funding incentives and technical assistance to landowners who install structural BMPs such as raingardens, water and sediment control basins and grassed waterways. The second initiative uses grant funding to provide 10-year extensions to expiring Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts that are not eligible for federal re-enrollment. Fields that are highly susceptible to erosion are targeted for protection through this initiative. The grasses and native prairie vegetation on these highly sensitive lands retain runoff and hold soil in place while providing high quality wildlife habitat. In 2010, several BMPs were installed through this project. A 500 square foot raingarden installed at Highview Christiana church will treat and infiltrate stormwater from a large parking lot for years to come. The reconstruction of a grassed waterway in Hampton Township will reduce erosion from cultivated land adjacent to a ditch and six water and sediment control basins installed in the Trout Brook watershed will eliminate approximately 104 tons of sediment per year caused by gully erosion.

North St. Paul is using the term Living Streets to describe a new type of street that will eventually replace most of the city's existing streets. Living streets are narrower and have less pavement than existing streets. Reducing the width of existing streets reduces construction costs and assessments to residents. It allows room for the installation of rainwater gardens to treat stormwater. Where there is a need, bike trails and sidewalks may be installed. Unlike existing streets that are only designed for cars, living streets are designed with rainwater gardens and street-side trees to remove pollutants from stormwater before the water enters area lakes. Narrower streets and street-side trees also slow traffic, creating a safe environment for everyone. Bike trails and sidewalks make it easy for all residents to exercise and connect with neighbors. The Living Streets approach will result in dramatic reductions in stormwater runoff volume and nutrient loading for downstream water resources. The demonstration project will provide a local example of the street design intended to be used throughout the street replacement program in North St. Paul over the next 30 years.

A nutrient management plan is a long range plan used by landowners to identify resource concerns, sensitive areas and changes in management needed to improve crop production and decrease the potential for pollution. Nutrient Management Plans provide environmental benefits by managing the amount, source, placement, form and timing of the application of nutrients on crop land. A problem area on the West Branch of the Rum River had turf grass at the top of a sharp bend in the river. Erosion along the 30-foot high bank was severe and even mature trees were lost because they were unable to hold the soil with their roots. The area was seeded with native vegetation and covered with erosion control fabric. A Conservation Corps youth work crew planted 6,400 native plants and 325 native shrubs after some shaping of the riverbank. The turf grass was replaced with a buffer of native plants with roots that can reach 15 feet that will hold the sandy soils of the bank in place.

The City of Oronoco has been committed to protecting its groundwater and drinking water supply as City officials have worked over the past 50 years to secure funding for community wastewater and municipal water systems to serve the community. Oronoco is the largest unsewered community in the State of MN. In the summer of 2017, the City received funding from the State Legislature to complete a new wastewater study and alternatives analysis, and ultimately it was decided the community would build a new wastewater treatment plant. Oronoco secured placement on the Drinking Water Revolving Fund (DWRF) and the Clean Water Revolving Fund (CWRF) 2020 Intended Use Plan (IUP), completed an application for a Point Source Implementation Grant (PSIG) Funding and secured $24.027 M in project funding through the State of Minnesota's 2020 Bonding Bill. Residents of Oronoco historically depended on individual wells for their potable water needs. Many of these wells were constructed prior to State well code and some of them have elevated levels of nitrates and have history of bacterial contamination. The City of Oronoco constructed its own water supply, storage, and distribution system in 2009 / 2010. Oronoco's water system serves approximately 2/3 of the City including many of its existing residential and non-residential properties. These improvements were an important first step in eliminating existing well penetrations into the groundwater and providing residents with a safe drinking water and fire protection system. As part of this initial expansion, Olmsted SWCD and the City of Oronoco worked together to provide funding to seal ~50 wells. The current expansion of the water distribution system is proposed as part of the Wastewater System improvements to serve areas that are currently served with sewer but are not yet served by the water system. The water distribution system expansion will serve 129 additional parcels with municipal water. Parcels being served by the current water system expansion are illustrated by the blue diagonal hatch on the attached figure. The City of Oronoco will be able to provide water service to new customers that are located west of TH 52 (except for 1st Place SW) and along portions of 5th Street NW and 2nd Avenue SE and are scheduled to receive water on or before October 30, 2023. In order to do this, the City of Oronoco is requiring that residents of these parcels make their connection to the municipal water service and complete their well sealing within 12 months of the service connection becoming available to the property owner. In order to transition Oronoco residents to a safer and more dependable water supply, approximately 75 wells within the Oronoco Drinking Water Supply Management Areas (DWSMA) and sensitive groundwater vulnerability area will be sealed as part of this commitment. Each property owner who receives water service is required to extend the water service pipe from the curb stop (near the property line) to the existing pipe entering the home or business. Each property owner is also solely responsible for all costs to construct the water service pipe, completion of associated plumbing improvements, installation of a water meter, site restoration and private well abandonment. The grant funding will be utilized to provide cost-share to residents to help off-set the cost of private well abandonment.

Its Lower Otter Tail River (LOTR) reach is impaired for sediment. The LOTR begins at the dam of Orwell Reservoir near Fergus Falls and ends 48 river miles downstream at the confluence with the Bois de Sioux River at Breckenridge. No point sources contribute directly to the LOTR. Consequently, the turbidity impairment must be addressed through non-point measures. Current stream instability and bank erosion is largely a result of an 18-mile channel straightening completed by the Army Corps of Engineers in the 1950s. This channel straightening reduced channel length and induced headcutting which has been a major contributor to channel instability and bank failure resulting in excessive sediment loading since that time. Bank instability is a significant contributing factor to the turbidity impairment in the LOTR. A TMDL study for this reach of the river was completed in 2006 with an implementation plan completed in 2007. An estimated 17 percent reduction in the 40,400 tons/year annual sediment load is necessary to meet the state standard. Since 2007, the Wilkin SWCD installed BMPs to hold the water back in contributing drainage systems and release it slower into the LOTR. The SWCD work has resulted in the retrofit of 40 miles of legal ditch systems with sediment controls (side inlets) and 300 acres of buffer strips. Cover cropping promotion resulted in excess of 20,000 acres of annual cover crops. The remaining implementation strategy will need to address in-stream sediment sources which will require a detailed channel restoration plan to stabilize streambank erosion and encourage natural stream functions. The detailed plan will provide a coordinated framework for future channel restoration. When implemented, the LOTR is expected to once again meet state standards.

The Partridge River is a major tributary to the headwaters of the Crow Wing River, a highly recreated river for fishing and water enthusiasts. The Partridge River (07010106-518) was placed on the EPA's 303(d) list of impaired waters in 2014 for high E. coli contributions by livestock operations. E. coli reductions will be achieved through closure of nine outdated manure storage basins, installation of 6 livestock access control projects, increased buffer areas, and the construction of winter manure storage areas. Seven of the nine failure manure storage basins are placed in sandier soils within 300 feet of the river. Average water tables in the area indicate depths of 4.5 feet placing the basin floors at or into the water table. EPA studies have shown high levels of bacteria accumulating in shallow aquifers from outdated, poorly lined manure basins, or simply excavated into native soils. Livestock with unrestricted access to streams provide a direct source of E. coli to streams by defecation. In addition, this process loads nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients directly to the stream. In conjunction, increased buffer areas provide filtering of run off from livestock wastes leading to a reduction of E. coli loading.

Extensive subsurface drainage and open ditches are found throughout the counties in order to improve crop productivity. Glacial geology and steep topography make the loamy soils very prone to wind and water erosion. Surface water issues within this watershed are a historical priority concern of local leadership. Redwood-Cottonwood Rivers Control Area (RCRCA) was formed by these leaders in 1983 to address sedimentation, water quality, water quantity, and erosion issues. Past diagnostic studies and implementation plans for the Cottonwood River defined specific pollutants, processes affecting transport, and measures to reduce delivery. RCRCA authored a TMDL and implementation plan to address turbidity in 2008. Wenck Associates, Inc.

This is a cooperative project between the City of Lindstrom and the Chisago Lakes Lake Improvement District. This 66 acre catchment receives runoff water from residential, commercial downtown and light industrial areas. The park is used as a playground in summer and an ice skating rink in winter. The storm sewer is not sized to handle runoff from wider streets and more impervious surfaces and the outlet in South Lindstrom Lake is under water. During high rain events sediment is carried into the lake and creates a large delta three to four feet below the surface of the water, which also creates a hazard at the private beach area where the outlet is located. Due to the lack of upstream treatment, debris (cigarette butts, papers, cups) is carried directly into the lake and deposited on the shoreline. Filtration and holding areas upstream of the lake will resolve these issues.

Water monitoring professionals from the Washington Conservation District (WCD), funded by the South Washington Watershed District (SWWD), have determined that average annual phosphorus concentrations are increasing in the lake. Higher phosphorus concentrations lead to more frequent algae blooms and reduced water clarity.Powers Lake is at risk mainly due to increased urbanization within its watershed (the land area that drains to the lake). Impervious surfaces like roofs and roads not only increase the amount of runoff headed to the lake during every rainfall event, they also increase the rate at which that runoff reaches the lake. Some runoff is directly piped into the lake with no treatment. WCD and SWWD have developed a plan to address the phosphorus problem in the Powers Lake watershed. The first step was to complete a subwatershed retrofit assessment report for the watershed. The report identifies specific subwatersheds, or catchments, that rank highly in terms of potential for installing cost-effective stormwater management practices that reduce the phosphorus loading to Powers Lake.WCD and SWWD will now use CWF grant funding combined with local match funds to install stormwater treatment projects within two target catchments identified in the report.

Daily tasks included identifying prairie remnants or sites with local ecotype native species, planting trays, using GPS to mark species locations on large sites, placing no mow signs in selected ditches, shelling and cataloguing seed types and amounts collected. Seeds were collected from 104 different species of which 34 species could be considered at-risk for further decline. Projects Results Use and Dissemination Articles were published in Martin SWCD's Conservation Update and several radio spots were aired discussing this project to update county residents on our progress. We also set up information booths at various community events and we always had photographs and talked about what we were doing with the project.

Five priority projects were identified by the Group partners in an effort to preserve water quality. Support for these projects was provided by a grant from the Clean Water Fund. In 2010, partners began implementing the projects. Five rain gardens were installed at two separate sites near Mille Lacs Lake. These gardens were designed to catch rain water in order to reduce direct runoff and trap sediment before it reaches the lake. Installation at one site was combined with an educational workshop that taught members of the public how to design and implement their own rain gardens. Also installed in 2010 were 150 feet of rock rip rap on the shoreline of an upstream lake. This fragile lakeshore had been experiencing erosion from overland runoff and wave action for years. Protection of the slope has eliminated the soil erosion and input to the lake. The remaining two projects will be installed in 2011.

This use is at risk from tens-of-thousands of old wells (residential, commercial, agricultural, and industrial) that are unused and unsealed. These wells pose a significant health and safety hazard to Anoka County well water users by creating a direct, unmaintained conduit that can introduce contaminants (e.g. pesticides, nutrients, heavy metals, salts, hydrocarbons, and pathogens) into groundwater supplies. Moreover, the highly permeable surficial sands of the Anoka Sand Plain are believed to be a significant source of groundwater recharge for several of the major aquifers that supply the water needs throughout the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. As such, protection of Metro Area groundwater supplies requires protection of Anoka County recharge areas. We're helping to solve this problem by using this grant to offer cost-share funds of 50-75% to incentivize landowners to hire MN Department of Health licensed well sealing contractors to seal unused wells. Due to the large-scope of the problem, we're proposing to prioritize and target well sealing cost-share promotion. Unused wells within Drinking Water Supply Management Areas (DWSMAs), those that are deep and intersect multiple aquifers, and those that have the earliest original installation date will be targeted. DWSMAs represents about 75% of all drinking water use in Anoka county and according to a recent Anoka County Public Health and Environmental Services (ACPHES) study, at least 2,354 properties in Anoka County DWSMAs are known to have a high potential of having an unused/unsealed well. Our goal is to seal up to 125 high priority unused wells, which we expect to abate about 5% of the problem within DWSMAs.

These outcrops are also home to rare and specialized plant and animal communities rarely found elsewhere in Minnesota, including several types of cactus and one of Minnesota's only three lizard species, the five-lined skink. However, these rock outcrops are increasingly threatened by mining, overgrazing, and development. Through this appropriation, the Renville County Soil and Water Conservation District is working with Minnesota's Board of Water and Soil Resources to acquire conservation easements that will permanently preserve approximately 580 acres of this endangered habitat in Chippewa, Lac qui Parle, Redwood, Renville and Yellow Medicine counties. Overall Project Outcome and Results A total of 560.4 acres of rare and unique Minnesota River Valley landscape were permanently protected and sixteen landowners were paid $1,379,814 for voluntarily placing perpetual conservation easements on those acres. Five counties participated in the project including Lac qui Parle, Chippewa, Yellow Medicine, Redwood and Renville. Easement applications were scored by resource professional teams and funding was based on those scores. Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) employees saw a need to protect the natural environment and to provide economically viable choices for the landowners. The Minnesota River Valley contains exposed ancient granite rock outcrops that provide unique landscape features and habitat for specialized plant and animal communities rarely found elsewhere in Minnesota. No programs existed that would give landowners a payment if they chose to protect the area from development by mining, overgrazing and other development interests. Rock outcrops are a component of the Minnesota River's riparian zone, and destruction of this unique habitat degrades water quality and wildlife habitat in the Minnesota River and its tributaries. Removal of the rock results in severe degradation and permanent loss of these unique landscape features. The Minnesota River Corridor is easily susceptible to fragmentation because it comprises such a small percentage of the Minnesota River Watershed. Past development activities and mining operations have already fragmented large areas of the fragile Minnesota River Corridor. Demand for aggregate is growing as our population and infrastructure grow. Interest in mining exposed granite rock outcrops in the Minnesota River Valley is high because the rock is readily available and there is no overburden to remove. This encourages the practice of horizontal mining, removing the easiest and most profitable rock, and moving on. Unlike gravel mining operations, there is no reclamation plan possible for replacing this unique landscape feature once it is removed.

Through partnerships with local seed growers and nurseries they will collect, propagate, and plant these declining and at-risk, locally-adapted plant species on protected habitat as part of restoration efforts in order to encourage and increase their presence on the landscape. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The project focus was to accelerate the local ecotype seed availability of declining species for use on restoration projects. This project was undertaken in large part because 90 of the 238 species documented so far in Martin County by the Minnesota County Biological Survey of 2009 are considered to be at-risk. Native seeds were collected from 118 species off 33 different sites and we monitored additional prairie remnants. This project protected remaining native populations and expanded populations to new sites, enhancing environmental conditions and improving habitat diversity for wildlife. This project continuously proved to be a great educational opportunity. Each fall, area high school students were taught native plant species and assisted in native seed collection. High school athletic groups also volunteered with native seed collection. Over 250 people have been reached through one-on-one interactions. We have also heard repeatedly from these individuals that once they learn a little about native plant species, they continue to learn more independently and share the knowledge they have gained with others. We also educated landowners and students about identifying and distinguishing between native and invasive species. We have also gained a number of new volunteers. Native seeds were planted on 22 protected sites. Sites that had been previously planted were monitored. Photographs were taken to document both the native stands and progress on the planted areas. A local conservation organization, Fox Lake Conservation League, provided land for plant propagation.

Snakey Creek is the outlet of County Ditch No. 41 which has become the most critically eroding gully contributing sediment to the Red River in our targeted reach. When stabilized, sediment load to the river will be reduced by 1404 tons per year, and Total Phosphorus will be reduced by 1615 pounds per year. The sediment reduction associated with this project is 1.6 percent of the goal set based on the draft Red River Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) plan for Red River at the mouth of the Wild Rice River (ND). The Red River is listed as an impaired water for exceeding the turbidity standard for aquatic life. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is completing a TMDL report for the Red River and using that draft report, it was determined that 90,000 tons of sediment per year need to be removed in order for the Red River to no longer be listed as impaired in the vicinity of Moorhead, MN. Snakey Creek drops approximately 14 feet over 2600 feet of channel. The channel is steep and downcutting has caused successive mass wasting of the channel sideslopes which end up delivering significant sediment to the Red River. This project builds off of a 2016 Clean Water Fund Accelerated Implementation Grant (AIG) received by the BRRWD along with subsequent field reconnaissance. The 2016 AIG was used to complete Prioritize, Target, Measure App (PTMApp) within the BRRWD. The PTMApp results were filtered further to identify the best locations for grade stabilization practices.

The easements limit future land use and put conservation plans in place for future management. The Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources is using this appropriation to accelerate the RIM Wetlands Reserve Program resulting in additional permanently protected wetlands and grasslands throughout the state. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) - Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) partnership is a local-state-federal partnership delivered locally by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR), and county Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs). The goal of the RIM-WRP partnership is to protect land with perpetual conservation easements and restore high quality wetlands and native grassland in order to maximize wetland functions and values and optimize wildlife habitat. For this particular project, ENTRF funds were used to secure permanent conservation easements via the RIM-WRP partnership as part of a larger effort to protect and restore the drained Crooked Lake basin in Douglas County, MN. The Crooked Lake Restoration project is a multi-partner project that aims to restore the drained shallow lake bed, which prior to its drainage in the early 1900s was home to diverse populations of aquatic invertebrates and provided thousands of acres of critical wildlife habitat. Project outcomes include reduced nutrient loading and sedimentation to nearby (impaired) Lake Osakis and improved water quality throughout the Sauk River watershed. The Crooked Lake restoration project was deemed a Federal priority in 2011 by USDA under the Mississippi River Basin Initiative (MRBI). Led by both the Douglas Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) and the Sauk River Watershed District and with the cooperation of USDA NRCS, BWSR, Ducks Unlimited, and many other local, state, and federal partners, the Crooked Lake Project evolved over the past decade. Primary goals to restore this shallow lake for wildlife and water quality purposes have been at the forefront. The proposed pool elevation (1334.0'), along with adjacent upland makes up the project boundary. Scoring criteria was developed that had the highest priority applications being those located within the pool and secondary priority was then directed at the associated adjacent land to the pool. ENTRF funds were used to protect 630.7 acres with perpetual conservation easements on which 586 acres of wetlands and 45 acres of associated upland/grassland will be restored, providing multiple ecological and wildlife benefits and assisting with local water quality goals. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Public outreach for this project was conducted at the local level by Douglas SWCD, local NRCS staff, and other program partners. SWCD staff held public meetings to raise awareness of this project and to educate landowners about the public and ecological benefits of restoring the drained lake bed. SWCD staff also met with landowners in the project area one-on-one to discuss the options/benefits of enrolling in either the RIM-WRP or WREP conservation easement options available in the project area. More information about the RIM-WRP program can be found online at http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/easements/RIM-WRP/.

This funding will leverage $12.6 million of federal WRP funds for the State of Minnesota and is expected to create and sustain 343 jobs and income to local landowners, businesses and others in the state based on USDA economic estimates. With this level of funding from Outdoor Heritage Funds (OHF) we anticipate the protection and restoration of approximately 5,800 acres of new habitat under the RIM-WRP leveraging project. Since WRP receives annual appropriations from the 2008 Federal Farm Bill, this leveraging opportunity is available for at least the next five years. ","Described as the premier private lands wetland restoration easement program in the nation, the RIM-WRP partnership combines Minnesota's RIM Reserve conservation easement program and the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wetland Reserve Program (WRP). Combining RIM Reserve and WRP allows OHF to leverage Federal Farm bill conservation dollars to Minnesota. Utilizing both programs results in competitive payment rates to landowners and sharing of the costs associated with perpetual easement acquisition and restoration by both the federal and state programs. In 2008 BWSR and NRCS accepted nearly 300 applications during a limited three week sign-up period for RIM-WRP easements on over 33,000 acres at an estimated cost of over $75 million. The applications were scored and ranked and the top scoring highest priority 98 applications were funded for easement acquisition totaling 9,775 acres. BWSR obligated $15.6 million which leveraged $21.0 million of federal WRP funds to permanently protect and restore these 98 conservation easements. Because of this partnership, Minnesota received almost 20% of the nation's WRP funds in 2008. In spring 2009, the RIM-WRP partnership held its Phase II statewide sign-up. We received over 230 applications from landowners requesting conservation easements on over 19,000 acres at a cost of approximately $70 million. The RIM-WRP partnership scored, ranked and selected the following projects for funding from the Outdoor Heritage Fund based on their ability to protect and restore wetland and native grassland wildlife habitat in priority areas in Minnesota. This opportunity was offered statewide but has a priority focus in the ecological provinces of the state that have experienced significant losses of wetland and associated prairies (see map attached). It will be delivered by local NRCS staff, local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) staff and assisted by program staff from both NRCS and the Board of Soil and Water Resources? (BWSR). In addition, Ducks Unlimited contract employees and staff provided by Minnesota Waterfowl Association assist in program delivery. Since the SWCD is responsible for the local delivery of the RIM Reserve program to private landowners on behalf of the State of Minnesota, they are ideally suited to work in concert with their local NRCS staff to efficiently and effectively deliver the RIM-WRP partnership. Once an easement is acquired NRCS is responsible for maintenance, inspection and monitoring during the life of their 30-year WRP easement. The state of Minnesota assumes sole responsibility via its RIM Reserve easement once the 30-year WRP easement has expired. BWSR partners with local SWCDs to carry-out oversight, monitoring and inspection of its conservation easements.

BWSR partners with local SWCDs to carry-out oversight, monitoring and inspection of its conservation easements.Final Summary:In 2008 and 2009 RIM-WRP sign-ups occurred. 100's of applications were generated that far exceeded this appropriation.63 RIM-WRP easements were acquired on 7,276 acres. $6.3 million of RIM funds from OHF were paid directly to landowners which leveraged over $13 million of federal WRP funds. Approximately 2,423 acres of wetlands and 4,853 acres of adjacent uplands have been protected.The RIM-WRP Partnership successfully demonstrated that the State of Minnesota can cooperatively work with a federal partner (NRCS) and through a local delivery system (SWCD, NRCS, DU and MWA) to implement a permanent easement protection program that yielded thousands of acres of permanently protected wildlife habitat. This significant leverage was due to the amount of easement payments, conservation plan payments, and other costs the NRCS contributed to this partnership. The NRCS made the bulk of the easement payment portion through 30-year WRP Easement acquisition, while BWSR paid an additional portion for the Permanent RIM Easement.NRCS paid approximately 75% of the restoration costs for these easements, with RIM picking up the remaining 25%. The use of NRCS Practice Standards, along with BWSR's Native Vegetation Guidelines led to very high diversity mixes being seeded. The level of wetland restoration was dependent on restorable extent that would not impact lands outside the easement area. BWSR & NRCS evaluated restoration extent during our scoring review to ensure restoration was actually feasible, then followed up with site analysis and surveys.Several easements contained CRP contracts, where looming expiration meant a risk of losing habitat that was already in good condition. We estimate that 400 acres contained CRP contracts that were set to expire. Upon execution of the WRP Easement and RIM Easement, CRP contracts were required to be terminated.Unfortunately, $1,141,926 of the original allocation was returned and the narrative below will explain the challenges that caused this to occur. Challenges included:1. A misunderstanding occurred between BWSR and LSOHC staff related to the transferring of one OHF appropriation to a future year appropriation. BWSR was under the false assumption that at the time of the final encumbrance date of the ML 2009 appropriation that we could just roll the balance to the ML 2010 appropriation. Once it was discovered that this was not possible we were already past the encumbrance date for this appropriation and could not make any new encumbrances to utilize the balance of funds.2. The State of Minnesota converted from an old financial system (MAPS) to a new system (SWIFT) during the period that this appropriation was open. This conversion caused a mis-allocation of ML 2009 RIM-WRP funds to ML 2010 RIM-WRP. Once this issue was discovered it was again past the date to make encumbrance changes to the ML 2009 appropriation.3. After the encumbrance deadline for these funds had passed a few landowners canceled their RIM-WRP applications. We were unable to reallocate those funds to additional applications since the encumbrance deadline date had passed.As this was the first appropriation that BWSR received from the OHF many lessons have been learned.One lesson learned with this first year of OHF appropriations was that we had one easement that took an extra long amount of time to be acquired due to a number of title issues. In future appropriations we have moved problem easements to newer appropriations in order to speed up the final reporting time period and allow enough time to get the title cleared.",2009-07-01,2012-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",None,,,Tim,Koehler,BWSR,"520 Lafayette Road North ","St. Paul",None,55155,"(651) 297-1894",kevin.lines@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition, Restoration/Enhancement","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Becker, Big Stone, Blue Earth, Clay, Cottonwood, Douglas, Jackson, Kandiyohi, Mahnomen, McLeod, Norman, Pennington, Pope, Rice, Steele, Swift, Swift",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/reinvest-minnesota-wetlands-reserve-program-acquisition-and-restoration,,,,

The goal of the RIM-WRP Partnership is to achieve the greatest wetland functions and values, while optimizing wildlife habitat on every acre enrolled in the partnership. The RIM-WRP partnership enables Minnesota to leverage $1.4 of federal WRP funding for every state dollar available through RIM Reserve. This appropriation request of $6.895 million from the Outdoor Heritage Fund (OHF) will leverage $9.653 million in WRP funds to Minnesota. We expect to enroll approximately 46 permanent conservation easements totaling 4,620 acres of wetland grassland wildlife habitat complexes. This will enable the RIM-WRP partnership to restore approximately 230 previously drained wetland basins totaling 1,525 wetland acres, and the restoration of native grassland prairies on approximately 3,095 acres. Since WRP is an annual funded program through the 2008 Federal Farm Bill, this leveraging opportunity is available to Minnesota for at least the next four years. ","Minnesota's original wetland and prairie landscapes have been lost at an alarming rate over the last century and a half of European settlement. Minnesota's prairies once comprised nearly 20 million acres, extending from the borders of Iowa and Wisconsin in the southeast to North Dakota and Manitoba in the northwest. Less than 1% of this native prairie remains. Minnesota has lost an estimated 42 percent of its original 16 million acres of wetlands to drainage or fill activities. The loss of wetlands is most severe in the prairie regions of the state. Approximately 90% of prairie wetlands have disappeared and in the southwestern area of the state losses are as high as 99%. Prairie wetlands are particularly important for migratory waterfowl. Although the North American pothole region contains only about 10% of the waterfowl nesting habitat on the continent (including a significant portion of Minnesota), it produces 70% of all North American waterfowl. This extensive loss of Minnesota's prairie and wetland habitat has lead to the decline of many wildlife and plant species originally abundant in the state. Of the nearly 1,200 known wildlife species in Minnesota, 292 species, or approximately one-fourth, are at risk because they are rare; their populations are declining or they face serious risks of decline due to loss of habitat. The RIM-WRP Partnership, the premier private lands wetland restoration program in the nation, is a local-state-federal partnership delivered locally by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) and the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) to ensure the RIM-WRP Partnership is a longstanding and successful program in Minnesota. In addition, this partnership is possible through collaboration among many local, state and federal partners including NRCS, BWSR, local SWCDs, Ducks Unlimited (DU), the Minnesota Waterfowl Association (MWA) and the United States Department of Interior Fish and Wildlife Services (USFWS). The RIM-WRP Partnership will protect and restore an estimated 230 wetland basins totaling 1,525 wetland acres and associated restored native grassland prairie on 3,095 acres in 46 permanent conservation easements totaling 4,620 acres. These restored wetlands and native grassland complexes will provide critical habitat for migratory waterfowl and other wetland dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wetlands provide habitat for fish and wildlife, including threatened and endangered species. They improve water quality by filtering sediments and chemicals, reduce flooding, recharge groundwater, protect biological diversity, sequester carbon and increase recreational opportunities. ","Described as the premier private lands wetland restoration easement program in the nation, the RIM-WRP partnership combined Minnesota's RIM Reserve conservation easement program and the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP). Combining RIM Reserve and WRP allowed OHF to leverage Federal Farm Bill conservation dollars to Minnesota. Utilizing both programs resulted in competitive payment rates to landowners and sharing of the costs associated with perpetual easement acquisition and restoration by both the federal and state programs.This opportunity was offered statewide but had a priority focus in the ecological provinces of the state that have experienced significant losses of wetland and associated prairies. It was delivered by local NRCS staff, local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) staff and assisted by program staff from both NRCS and the Board of Soil and Water Resources (BWSR). In addition, Ducks Unlimited (DU) contract employees and staff provided by Minnesota Waterfowl Association (MWA) assisted in program delivery. Since the SWCD is responsible for the local delivery of the RIM Reserve program to private landowners on behalf of the State of Minnesota, they were ideally suited to work in concert with their local NRCS staff to efficiently and effectively deliver the RIM-WRP partnership. Once an easement is acquired NRCS is responsible for maintenance, inspection and monitoring during the life of their 30-year WRP easement. The state of Minnesota assumes sole responsibility via its RIM Reserve easement once the 30-year WRP easement has expired. BWSR partners with local SWCDs to carry-out oversight, monitoring and inspection of its conservation easements.Final Summary:In 2010, 2011, and 2012, RIM-WRP sign-ups occurred. 100's of applications were generated that far exceeded this appropriation.46 RIM-WRP easements were acquired on 4,166 acres. $5.2 million of RIM funds from OHF were paid directly to landowners which leveraged over $9.8 million of federal WRP funds. Approximately 1,416 acres of wetlands and 2,750 acres of adjacent uplands have been protected.The RIM-WRP Partnership successfully demonstrated that the State of Minnesota can cooperatively work with a federal partner (NRCS) and through a local delivery system (SWCD, NRCS, DU and MWA) to implement a permanent easement protection program that yielded thousands of acres of permanently protected wildlife habitat. This significant leverage was due to the amount of easement payments, conservation plan payments, and other costs the NRCS contributed to this partnership. The NRCS made the bulk of the easement payment portion through 30-year WRP Easement acquisition, while BWSR paid an additional portion for the Permanent RIM Easement.NRCS paid approximately 75% of the restoration costs for these easements, with RIM picking up the remaining 25%. The use of NRCS Practice Standards, along with BWSR's Native Vegetation Guidelines led to very high diversity mixes being seeded.

Upon execution of the WRP Easement and RIM Easement, CRP contracts were required to be terminated.BWSR and the NRCS are committed to seeing all restorations through to ensure all sites provide beneficial habitat. Sixteen easements have restorations fully completed. Due to delays with easement processing, restoration was also delayed in several cases.

In a preliminary analysis, a subwatershed area adjacent to Rice Lake was prioritized using already developed modeling information dating back to 2005. With the Rice Lake TMDL implementation plan ongoing, this area is a target for restoration projects and a place to have measurable results. The Stearns County Environmental Services Department (ESD) and Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD), through the Comprehensive Water Management Plan, developed a Pollutant Loading Model (PLM) in 2005 for riparian lot development. The PLM determines the amount of sediment and phosphorus discharged from each particular riparian lot into the adjacent lake or river, and also determines the size of Best Management Practice (BMP) needed to mitigate for development. The PLM has calculated pollution inputs and associated BMPs that will mitigate for impervious surface impacts.

Over the next three years 347,000 additional acres will expire - in geographical terms, 15 townships or 542.47 square miles. Minnesota was once a land of 18 million acres of prairie. Today less than two percent remains. The few acres of native remnant prairie that remain were once thought of as too rocky or wet for row crops but not anymore. If the current trajectory of grassland and prairie loss continues it will be devastating to grassland wildlife populations, including pollinator species. This proposal, working in partnership with Prairie Conservation Plan Local Technical Teams (LTTs), focuses on protecting current grasslands and buffering native prairie that are within wildlife habitat complexes not covered by other conservation programs. There are programs for native prairie such as NPB and NTGP NWR and programs for cropland, but there are no programs for ‘in between’ grasslands. As Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) and LTTs review these areas for possible enrollment, they may find additional tracts that are native prairie. With this project, some native prairie may be included to square up parcels. In cases where larger tracts are identified, they will contact the DNR’s Biological Survey and Native Prairie Bank staff for a more formal botanical survey of the site. The loss of native prairie and grassland habitat is arguably the greatest conservation challenge facing northwest, western and southern Minnesota. This appropriation aims to protect 500 acres of prairie and grassland habitat by coordinating and accelerating the enrollment of Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) through private land easements.

This Program will continue to utilize a science-based ranking and selection process and be implemented locally, working with local SWCD, NRCS, and FSA staff in the 54 county CREP area. It is estimated that $1 of OHF will be leveraged with at least $2 of Federal funds through CREP. ","Wetland and prairie landscapes have been lost at an alarming rate over the last 150 years. Prairies once comprised nearly 20 million acres in Minnesota. Less than 1% of this native prairie remains. Minnesota has lost an estimated 42% of its original 16 million acres of wetlands to drainage or fill activities. The loss of wetlands is most severe in the prairie regions of the state (approximately 90% loss). The typical sites this Program will enroll are currently drained and farmed. These sites offer very limited ecological benefits in their current state. Through a combination of eligibility screening followed by a scoring and ranking process, the RIM Wetlands Program evaluates each application, selecting those applications which will provide the greatest habitat and environmental benefits after restoration and protection. The RIM Wetlands Program will protect and restore wetlands and adjacent upland area to native grassland via the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). This $10,398,000 appropriation has an expected FSA match of at least $20,796,000 (2:1 Federal to State ratio). The project area will consist of the 54 Counties within the CREP area and the expected results are a total of 4,137 acres of permanently protected and restored wetlands and uplands on approximately 46 easements through this request. These acres will provide a healthy and plentiful supply of habitat for fish, game, and wildlife, especially for waterfowl and upland birds.RIM Wetlands will be implemented through the CREP process, which utilizes both a 15 year CRP contract and a permanent RIM easement. This will be Minnesota's third CREP, and is able to offer a large-scale impact due to the unique opportunity to utilize a substantial federal match. Over the five year CREP period, we will enroll permanently protected wetlands and floodplain easements using a combination of the USDA Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and the Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) Reserve Program. RIM Wetlands is a local-state-federal partnership delivered locally by Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) and BWSR. In addition, the CREP partnership is possible through collaboration among many local, state and federal partners including the USDA-Farm Service Agency (FSA), USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Pheasants Forever (PF), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MNDNR), Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA), Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), and over 70 supporting organizations and agencies.BWSR staff will coordinate with Federal partners on the overall CREP process and program oversight. In addition, BWSR Staff will be responsible for easement acquisition. Local staff will promote CRP contracts and RIM easements, assist with easement processing and provide key essential technical assistance and project management services. Due to the reliance on local staff for implementation, the Farm Bill Assistance Partnership (FBAP) is included as a component of the RIM Wetlands Program. There is increased local workload expected with CREP signup and implementation, as a significantly increased number of easements will be secured within the CREP III area throughout the CREP timeframe.

A final draft proposal has been completed and is being reviewed by USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) and state partners. In addition, an Environmental Assessment will be completed in the next few months. Upon final agreement between the State of MN and the United States Dept. of Agriculture, MN conservation agencies and partners will embark on a seven year effort to implement a CREP to benefit wildlife habitat and provide water quality and hydrology benefits in 54 counties. This will be Minnesota's third CREP and the opportunity will be created to enroll and restore 100,000 acres of permanently protected buffers, wetlands and floodplain easements using a combination of the USDA Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and the Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) Reserve program. Of the 100,000 acre total, 50,000 acres will be focused on buffers directly associated with this proposal. The CREP will be a total of an estimated $800 million of federal, state and local funding, leveraging up to four federal dollars for every state/local dollar. If the CREP does not come to fruition stand-alone RIM Buffer easements will be secured. Restoration will also occur, when needed. Due to not having a signed CREP agreement at the time of this submittal, leverage has not been included in any of the budget figures and projected acreage outcomes represent a non-CREP stand-alone RIM option. If a CREP agreement is signed later in 2015, acreage totals and number of easements will increase by a maximum of approximately four times, and our request will shift to less easement money (since USDA will pay a majority of the payments to landowners through the CRP) and to more technical assistance, processing and stewardship money since it is estimated that easement numbers will increase dramatically.MN continues to see a net loss of grasslands each year. Expiring CRP is the leading cause of this landscape change. This exodus is being driven by high land and commodity prices, increased pressure for alternative uses, and declining federal budgets for conservation programs. Minnesota's primary strategy to mitigate the loss of CRP is to target expiring contracts for enrollment into Continuous CRP (CCRP) practices (like buffers) and permanent easements for the most beneficial practices (e.g. wetland restoration, grasslands, and buffers). This program is one proven strategy to provide landowners with a sound option to keep targeted conservation on the land when economic incentives favor row crop production. This partnership program establishes permanent buffers that provide both critical water quality improvements and improved wildlife habitat. For example, a buffer of 100' generally serves to protect water quality, while adding an additional 100' greatly enhances nesting opportunities for wildlife. Establishing a minimum of 200' on each side of a stream for a total of 400' plus the natural corridor that already exists creates a block of habitat for nesting birds and a critical link between other permanently protected habitats.Criteria used to evaluate and prioritize buffers funded under this program include: buffers must build upon and leverage a Clean Water Fund Buffer, proximity to other permanently protected habitat, buffers within a designated shallow lake watershed, proximity to lands open to public hunting, plant diversity, overall size, and type of water resource being buffered. A competitive RIM Buffers application process for landowners will be used. The first five phases of this program have created landowner interest that far exceeds available funding. The goal for this new phase will be to increase funding from both LSOHC but also increase match from Clean Water Funding as well as USDA. Wider buffers can provide longer term water quality treatment and provide better habitat. Buffers that are in close proximity to other grasslands also function at a higher level for grassland nesting birds and other wildlife.RIM Buffers program delivery will be supported by Minnesota's Conservation Assistance Acceleration Project (CAAP – formerly the Farm Bill Assistance Partnership) which includes BWSR, USDA - Natural Resources Conservation Service, Minnesota DNR, Soil and Water Conservation Districts, Prairie Pothole Joint Venture, Pheasants Forever, LCCMR and numerous local partners. Additionally, the RIM program will be delivered through SWCD's and administered by Minnesota BWSR.We propose that the LSOHC fund $6.708M in perpetual state RIM buffer easements that will build equally upon the RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund and/or new USDA programs such as CREP. This creates a unique partnership program to accomplish a single project with enhanced outcomes that could not otherwise be obtained with a single funding source. In the event equal match is not available during the project period, buffer areas for wildlife will be secured with only available OHF funds.

The project targeted wetlands and prairies, two of the three most important habitats used by the Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN). Of the nearly 1200 known wildlife species in Minnesota, 292 species, or approximately one-fourth, are at risk because they are rare; their populations are declining due to loss of habitat. SGCN in the RIM Wetlands area include the Five-lined Skink, Blanding's Turtle, Two-spotted Skipper, Northern Pintail, American Black Duck, Grasshopper Sparrow, Upland Sandpiper, Sedge Wren, Dickcissel, and Western Grebe. In addition to the SGCN, the threatened or endangered species nclude the Dakota Skipper and Poweshiek Skipperling. Diverse vegetation, access to a water resource, and protection from pesticides are also important to Minnesota's native pollinator species. BWSR's native vegetation guidelines and pollinator initiative protect native pollinators. Complexes and corridors targeted through RIM Wetlands provide areas that are safe from pesticides and natural passageways for pollinators. Targeted pollinator species include the Monarch Butterfly and solitary bee species including Leafcutter Bees, Mason Bees, and Yellow-faced Bees. Prairie wetlands are important for migratory waterfowl. Although the North American Prairie Pothole region contains only about 10% of the waterfowl nesting habitat on the continent, it produces 70% of all North American waterfowl. The loss of Minnesota?s prairie and wetland habitat has led to the decline of many wildlife and plant species. RIM Wetlands has protected and restored this habitat over many years and continues to do this important work using CREP.","A total of 4,369 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 4,369 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",22847200,USDA-FSA,13339300,,,1.65,BWSR,"State Government","Under the CREP partnership with USDA, 71 easements were recorded on a total of 4,365 acres to restore previously drained wetlands and adjacent uplands. The easements were accomplished with local implementation done by SWCD, NRCS and FSA staff within the 54 county CREP area and leveraged federal funds for both landowner payments and cost share for conservation practice installation.","The sites enrolled were generally drained and farmed wetlands and associated upland habitat. These sites offered limited ecological benefits. Through a combination of a scoring and ranking process and eligibility screening, each application was evaluated, with the applications that provided the greatest habitat and environmental benefits after restoration and protection being selected for funding. RIM Wetlands Phase 7 protected and restored wetlands and adjacent upland area to prairie via the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). The project area consisted of the 54 counties within the CREP area with 4,365 acres of permanently protected and restored wetlands and uplands on 71 easements. These acres provide a healthy and plentiful supply of habitat for fish, game, and wildlife, especially for waterfowl and upland birds. CREP utilizes both a 15-year CRP contract and a permanent RIM easement. RIM Wetlands Phase 7 was a local-state-federal partnership delivered locally by Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) and BWSR. In addition, the CREP partnership is possible through collaboration among many local, state and federal partners including the USDA-Farm Service Agency (FSA), USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Pheasants Forever (PF), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MNDNR), Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA), Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), and over 70 supporting organizations and agencies. BWSR staff coordinate with Federal partners on the overall CREP process and program oversight. In addition, BWSR Staff are also responsible for easement acquisition. Local staff promote CRP contracts and RIM easements, assist with easement processing and provide key essential technical assistance and project management services. Some highlights of the easements funded through this project include: The largest easement funded in this project, 73-03-20-01 in Stearns County, included 9 wetland basins on over 100 acres and approximately 250 acres of prairie and forest as well as a portion of Kolling Creek. The landowner donated approximately 50 acres to the easement area. Easement 56-01-17-01-W, in Otter Tail, was the first wetland application enrolled in this CREP. The total easement area is 84.6 acres, 25.8 donated by the landowner. The landowners remaining adjacent property (534 acres) are protected via easements with Minnesota Land Trust.

Development trends pose a serious threat to Lake Sturgeon, four-toed and spotted salamanders, Gilt Darter, Northern Long-eared Bat, Blanding's Turtles, and over 128 unique, rare, endangered, and threaten species that live in these watersheds.","Watersheds in northern Minnesota benefit from public lands since they are mostly forested. The primary risk to habitat and water quality is on private lands. Private forestlands are key because they are more likely to be developed resulting in habitat fragmentation, loss of connectivity, increased pollution and stormwater runoff, and siltation or sedimentation of water bodies. Conversion of private forestlands to more intense land uses place negative impacts on both wildlife habitat and water quality. Both the Kettle and Snake river watersheds have experienced an increase in development and land use conversion in recent years. Since most of the prime lakeshore in the counties is developed, present and future development of river shoreland is expected. The DNR Hinckley Area Fisheries Office has been tagging and monitoring Lake Sturgeon in the Kettle, St. Croix, and Snake rivers since the early 1990's. Populations appear to be stable and small sturgeon are recruiting into the fishery. While Lake Sturgeon populations appear to be healthy in the Kettle and Snake Rivers, their future relies on clean water. Healthy forests, wetlands, and shorelines in watersheds are vital to the water quality downstream. Thus, protecting private riparian forestland is critical to fish and wildlife habitat. In 2016, the MN DNR and BWSR, working with SWCDs and partners developed a protection framework based on research developed by MN DNR Fisheries. The MN DNR identified a strong correlation between water quality and habitat that sustains fish populations and maintaining 75 percent forest cover in the watershed. The process works as follows: 1) Prioritize minor watersheds that have less than 75% protected watersheds, 2) Target specific parcels using RAQ scores and 3) over time, measure progress toward 75% forestland protection goal on watershed basis. We periodically measure the percent of the watersheds with permanent forest protection to illustrate this transformation on graphic dial like a speedometer. We call this moving the needle towards watershed protection. To move the needle in Kettle and Snake watersheds, this program will utilize BWSR's Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) conservation easements. To maximize the conservation benefit per dollar (?return on investment?) the SWCDs will select parcels with the greatest conservation value. To accomplish this, we will use the methodology developed by BWSR and Mitch Brinks, a mapping specialist. The methodology applies RAQ scoring system (Riparian, Adjacent, Quality), each private forested parcel is scored on a 0-10 scale based on the parcel proximity to water (?Riparian?) or protected lands (?Adjacency?) and various local defined features (?Quality?), such as wild rice, trout, and biodiversity. In short, the RAQ tool prioritizes parcels with benefits overlapping ? habitat, biodiversity, cost, water quality, and resiliency to create and protect extensive habitat complexes. Therefore, using the minor watershed/RAQ methodology we are stacking public benefits and maximizing the conservation benefits per dollar. We will protect approximately 660 acres (about 4 miles of shoreline) of high-quality private forests, wetlands, and shoreline habitat important for Lake Sturgeon and another 128 Species in Greatest Conservation Need that are known to occur within these watersheds.",,2021-07-01,2025-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Paul,Swanson,"Pine County Soil and Water Conservation District","1610 Highway 23 North ",Sandstone,MN,55072,"(320) 216-4241",Paul.Swanson@co.pine.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,,"Northern Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/riparian-habitat-protection-kettle-and-snake-river-watersheds,,,,

The RRWD in cooperation with landowners, road authorities, and the Roseau SWCD will implement conservation practices on 30 priority sites targeted due to the large volume of sediment they contribute to the river. Twenty-nine SWIs and one rock grade control structure were identified through the Prioritize Target Measure Application (PTMApp) as priority concerns, needing protection from chronic erosion. The PTMApp toolbar estimates the 29 Side Water Inlet sites identified contribute 62.46 tons of sediment annually into the Roseau River. The rock grade control structure is located at the confluence of WD 4 and the Roseau River. This location currently contributes 7.9 tons of sediment annually into SD51 in accordance with the PTMApp toolbar. The annual sediment yield estimates for the target subwatershed is between 89 - 178 tons, according the draft WRAPS report for the Roseau River Watershed. The PTMApp desktop identified 399.7 tons of annual sediment yield from the target subwatershed. Each of the identified sites constructed would be 410 grade stabilization structures preventing future head cutting and sediment deposition into the river. The overall budget for this phase of the project is $200,013. Estimated costs consist of engineering, construction, and administrative costs associated with all 30 sites.

Following the NMCWD managers accepting the study, they directed staff to prepare a feasibility study on the identified projects. To date, the City of Edina has conducted annual herbicide treatments to address curly-leaf pondweed and the District has completed an in-lake alum treatment and is currently assessing goldfish and carp management options to address internal loads. The proposed project is a stormwater filtration BMP on city property (Rosland Park) to remove phosphorus from runoff before it reaches Lake Cornelia. This project will address external loads (comprising up to 76% of the phosphorus load to the lake) coming from a 410-acre urban subwatershed that drains to the lake (including Southdale Mall). The stormwater BMP will pump water from an existing pond (which outlets to Lake Cornelia) through an above ground filtration system, after which the treated water will be discharged to Lake Cornelia. The stormwater BMP will include three different ?vaults? where different innovative filtration media will be used to determine which media results in the best removal efficiency.

The District began assessing church sites for retrofit opportunities in 2013 and will continue this effort in 2014. Church congregations tend to be receptive to partnering with watershed districts. Commercial and school property owners, however, are often harder to access, and can also be harder to motivate into partnerships that result in implementation of stormwater management Best Management Practices (BMPs). This project will assist the District in identifying and assessing school sites for retrofit opportunities that will increase the District's ability to meet stormwater volume and nutrient reduction goals. This project will not only identify promising sites for retrofit BMPs on school sites throughout the District, but involve a series of conversations with school administrators about the potential for partnering on project implementation, now and into the future. An important part of this project involves interaction with both public and private schools to introduce the District and its goals, determine the schools' willingness to partner with the District, identify barriers to installation and maintenance of stormwater BMPs, identify ways to reduce or eliminate barriers, and to generally lay the groundwork for the District to effectively work with schools into the future.",,,2014-03-06,2016-12-31,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Paige,Ahlborg,"Ramsey-Washington Metro WD",,,,,651-792-7964,paige.ahlborg@rwmwd.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Ramsey, Washington",,"Mississippi River - Twin Cities",http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/school-site-assessment-bmp-rettrofit,"See http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/aboutbwsr/index.html","See http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/aboutbwsr/index.html and http://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/aboutbwsr/boarddirectory.pdf","Nicole Clapp",NO

The land area draining to the lake is 762 acres, but a small a 28-acre residential neighborhood was found to disproportionately contribute 24 percent (roughly 14 lbs/yr) of the phosphorus, according to a 2010 study of phosphorus sources. The neighborhood was developed before Eagan established water quality requirements for stormwater retention ponds and the neighborhood drains runoff directly to the lake through a single pipe. The neighborhood has no available space for new retention ponds, but because soils are suitable for infiltration, plans focused on constructing small bioretention basins along street rights-of-way. Bioretention basins (also called raingardens) capture and rapidly absorb stormwater runoff from streets and driveways. Computer modeling estimates that 5,100 square feet of raingarden area along streets would reduce the flow of phosphorus into Schwanz Lake by 72 percent. The area was surveyed to identify optimum locations for raingardens and to determine whether adjacent residents would accept and maintain the raingardens once they were installed. During construction, soils are deeply loosened and special soils and plants are added to help absorb stormwater runoff. By the end of 2010, 4,580 square feet of raingarden area has been constructed.

The keystone feature of this initial pilot program was the launch a new state RIM easement program for wild rice lake shoreland properties intended to buffer and protect sensitive wild rice lake shorelines and limit development. Also, this initial program featured a unique partnership among local, county, state and federal agencies all working together to protect key parcels through a combination of conservation easements and fee-title land acquisitions. The Minnesota Board of Water & Soil Resources (BWSR) worked closely with northeastern Minnesota County Soil & Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) to develop and implement the new RIM conservation easement program for wild rice lakes, which secured 14 RIM easements and protected 821 acres. Due to several landowners canceling their RIM easement applications after the appropriation adjustment availability date, $98,044 of easement acquisition funding, $2,000 of easement stewardship funding, and $112 of personnel money was unspent by BWSR at the end of the project, and BWSR returned $100,156 to the OHF. However, this new RIM easement program for wild rice lakes was successfully launched and is now fully programmatic and ongoing, and has received additional OHF funding since this initial pilot phase. DU also attempted to purchase conservation easements on two parcels of land on wild rice lakes too, but those efforts did not succeed due to landowner unwillingness to continue with the DU easement process. Therefore, DU amended the grant budget to move easement grant funds to fee-title land purchase, and successfully appraised and purchased a 28-acre parcel of land on Moose Lake in St. Louis County in fee-title. This key parcel was then transferred it to the U.S. Forest Service for inclusion in the Superior National Forest and long-term management and public outdoor recreational use. DU also coordinated this pilot program and submitted all grant status reports. DU spent $143,262 but left $147,738 unspent to be returned to the OHF. Minnesota DNR successfully purchased a key 286-acre parcel in fee-title on Yaeger Lake in Wadena County for inclusion in the Yaeger state Wildlife Management Area (WMA). DNR also subawarded OHF grant funds to Cass County to purchase two parcels of 35 acres on Lake George and 40 acres on Lower Hand Lake that were for sale and were appropriate additions to county land holdings in the area and help consolidate Cass County forest management and land ownership. Together, DNR and Cass County purchased 361 acres in fee-title, spent $497,691, and turned back $2,309 to the OHF.

Soils data is used by governments, farmers, and other businesses for a number of purposes from protection and restoration of soil, water, wetlands, and habitats to agricultural soil management to building construction. This appropriation will accelerate the mapping and digitization of soil surveys for Crow Wing, Pine, Koochiching, Lake, Cook, and Saint Louis counties. Overall Project Outcome and Results Accurate soils information is essential for evaluating the potential for land to support development, crop and forest production, and for identifying the most suitable locations for conservation practices and other land uses. Readily accessible local soil information is critical to informing conservation decisions and provides a foundation for sustainable land use planning. The soil survey is the mechanism for how this basic natural resource information is made available to land use authorities and landowners to make the best land use decisions. In the ongoing, multi-year project to map, classify, interpret, and Web-publish an inventory of the soils of Minnesota, this two-year phase of the project focused on accelerating the completion of a Statewide soil survey, increase soil mapping in targeted areas, and enhancing soils data through increased sample collection, availability and interpretation. Specifically: 330,000 acres mapped in Crow Wing County; 32,000 acres mapped in Pine County; 85,000 acres mapped in Koochiching County; 80,000 acres mapped in the Crane Lake subset of St. Louis County; 219,000 acres mapped in Lake County; 114,000 acres mapped in Cook County; Data from 1,000 soil samples (some dating back to the 1970's) were interpreted for the first time and incorporated into Soil Surveys for many Minnesota counties; Land use effects on soil carbon were determined on 122 sites in 14 counties throughout the State; this data can be used to develop soil carbon management guidance.   The soil survey project was extremely successful and many of the mapping goals were exceeded.

Too much phosphorus in a waterbody creates harmful algal blooms and decreased levels of dissolved oxygen, making it difficult for fish to live, aquatic plants to survive, and unpleasant for recreation. To address this, the Heron Lake Watershed District (HLWD) and Jackson Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) are partnering with landowners to implement projects to reduce phosphorus in the SHL watershed. Efforts are focused on County Ditch 3 (CD3), which flows into Okabena Creek and then SHL and Judicial Ditches (JD)14 and JD3, which also outlet into SHL. Projects include 15 alternative side inlets (ASI) on CD3, 4 on JD14, and a 4.2 acre wetland on JD3, providing an annual phosphorus load reduction of 2258 pounds, which equates to a 6.1 percent total reduction for the SHL watershed. These systems are in varying stages, ranging from approval of the preliminary engineering report (PER) to completion of the final engineering report (FER). The projects in this proposal build upon recent successes, including an existing Clean Water Fund Multi-purpose Drainage Management (MDM) grant and an EPA 319 grant. The HLWD has been selected to receive a Small Watersheds Focus Grant to implement practices in the SHL watershed over the next several years. These efforts, coupled with the support of BWSR through this grant, will make meaningful progress towards reaching the 79 percent reduction goal for phosphorus.

The projects in this proposal include a treatment train of three bioretention basins to treat runoff from roads and properties in Wyanett Township and up to 15,000 square feet of additional near-shore stormwater reduction practices to treat runoff and erosion from high priority residential parcels. This proposal will work in concert with work being done by Isanti County Zoning to develop more restrictive shoreland ordinances. Finally, this proposal includes continued engagement or residents and local government staff and officials to promote a sustainable culture of lake stewardship. Spectacle Lake, located within the Rum River watershed, is locally referred to as the ?gem of Isanti County?. The Rum River WRAPS (2014) and recent work completed by Paul Radomski identified Spectacle Lake as the second most likely lake in the watershed (behind Lake Mille Lacs) to see substantial declines in water clarity with increasing nutrient loads. Increased nutrient loads are likely to occur as development and redevelopment increases in the shoreland areas; 35 new homes are platted for development within the next five years. Additionally, Isanti County has seen an increase in the conversion from seasonal to year-round homes on the lake; these changes nearly always result in an increase in impervious surface. The in-lake phosphorus goal set for the lake in the Rum WRAPS and other protection work is 13ug/L. This reflects a 21-pound reduction in watershed phosphorus loading. The proposed projects reduce phosphorus by 13.7 lbs annually. A significant amount of work to prepare for this proposal has been completed; projects have been prioritized, cost estimates have been determined and all partners are committed and ready to rock.

Through the Wakefield Lake TMDL process, implementation activities have been identified which include partnerships with the City of Maplewood to install BMPs in the watershed to directly benefit Wakefield Lake. RWMWD has researched, monitored and field tested the use of spent lime for stormwater quality treatment. Spent lime consists of calcium and carbonate and is a byproduct of the drinking water treatment process that has properties that allow it to bind with dissolved phosphorus. When water containing dissolved phosphorus contacts the lime material, calcium from the lime binds with the phosphorus and forms calcium phosphate which is a solid material and does not dissolve in the storm water, thus remaining within the treatment system. Although this is still an emerging concept, three years of monitoring a test spent lime system has shown promising results for the removal of both total and dissolved phosphorus. Total phosphorus removal through the system is approximately 60% and total dissolved phosphorus removal is approximately 70%. With the help of this grant source, RWMWD hopes to install a full scale spent lime filtration system on a City of Maplewood owned lot just upstream of Wakefield Lake at the southwest corner of Frost Avenue and Kennard Street to treat stormwater flow before it reaches the lake. This treatment system will achieve nearly 50% of the needed phosphorus external load reductions to Wakefield Lake as identified in the TMDL.

By compiling and integrating multiple types of data layers and analysis that are available today, conservation professionals can use the best and most precise information available to identify, prioritize, and guide conservation efforts. The Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources, in cooperation with the University of Minnesota, is using this appropriation to develop the foundation for the practice of ""precision conservation"" in Minnesota. Using factors such as soil productivity, landscape, water, wildlife, and other relevant natural resource factors, this effort is identifying, ranking, and mapping the ecological value of critical and environmentally sensitive lands throughout the state. This information will then be available to help prioritize conservation efforts. Other funds allocated to this project include: M.L. 2007, Chp. 30, Sec. 2, Subd. 7 ""Emerging Issues Account"" - $13,000 (completion date for this portion is 6/30/2009) M.L. 2008, Chp. 367, Sec. 2, Subd. 07 ""Emerging Issues Account"" - $155,000 (completion date for this portion is 6/30/2010) Overall Project Outcomes and Results To allocate scarce fiscal resources to natural resource programs, identifying the location and ranking the ecological value of critical lands is important. Using parameters of soil productivity, soil erosion risk, water quality risk, and habitat quality, an ecological ranking tool was developed. An economic model was also incorporated to analyze CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) parcels and determine the likelihood of contract renewal given anticipated crop prices and land quality. A parameter for soil erosion risk was developed using several factors from the Universal Soil Loss Equation. To identify lands posing a risk to water quality, or lands that are most likely to contribute overland runoff to surface waters, terrain analysis was used. Runoff rankings from terrain analysis were then integrated with a proximity analysis of surface water features based on DNR 24k surface water data. A parameter for habitat quality was derived from an update to the work done as part of the Minnesota Conservation and Preservation Plan (LCCMR, 2008). Combining the data sets therein, and assessing them with a ""weight of evidence"" approach, produced a ranking of wildlife quality. These several parameters were combined into an environmental benefits index (EBI). High EBI translates into high risk. Therefore, a high EBI score implies a site has a high value for conservation. CRP or other parcels deemed critical for conservation can be assessed simultaneously on the basis of multiple ecological benefits. The EBI tool has demonstrated utility as users can establish thresholds for EBI values based on program goals and amount of funding available. Project Results Use and Dissemination The EBI was first presented to a general audience through a WEBINAR. A follow-up technical training session, geared to GIS professionals, was developed. The technical sessions were attended by 42 conservation professionals representing local units of government, state and federal agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private companies. A majority (70%) of participants at the three technical training sessions said they planned to use the ecological ranking tool in their professional work. Given the diverse professional affiliations of the participants, their active involvement in conservation planning and delivery, and their connection to the network of natural resource professionals, it is likely that the Ecological Ranking Tool will be integrated into many conservation activities throughout Minnesota. Presentations of the project and project results were provided to the LCCMR, Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council and the Board of Water and Soil Resources. A final report was prepared. The report describes all results in more detail and includes maps and graphics and suggestions for use. A website was established by the Board of Water and Soil Resources that provides an overview of the ranking methodology. The BWSR website also includes links to an interactive ranking tool (located at the University of Minnesota, Natural Resources Research Institute (NRRI) and the final report, which is available in downloadable format.

",,58662,,,,,,"Brown's Creek Watershed District","Local/Regional Government","In recent times, the owners of Wolf Marine on the St. Croix River have to excavate sediment that has built up at the outlet of Brown's Creek every year just to keep their marina navigable. Their business is directly affected by how much soil gets into the creek. Reducing dirt and sand entering Brown's Creek is also important to others. The creek is one of the few designated trout streams in the Twin Cities area that supports a fishable brown trout population. With a grant from the Clean Water Fund, Brown's Creek Watershed District is partnering with the Stillwater Country Club to green their grounds and address pollution runoff. The goal of the project is to improve the water quality of the creek while adding aesthetically appealing gardens and native plant diversity to the course. Work began September 1st, 2010 with the installation of a raingarden. 7 additional raingardens, 2 native planting areas and numerous other stormwater management features were completed by early November 2010. Raingardens will keep rainwater on the golf course helping reduce the amount of soil that erodes and enters Brown's Creek. These changes will keep 46.3 tons of sediment a year from washing off of the golf course and into Brown's Creek. That's 7 percent of all the sediment washing into the creek along its entire route, or the equivalent of four and a half dump trucks full of dirt.

These watersheds contain over 1,250 lakes, which cover 354 square miles. There are 88 lakes with High to Highest Outstanding Biological Significance (Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MN DNR)), 92 wild rice lakes, and 29 cisco lakes. The Leech Lake and Pine River Landscape Stewardship Plans (LSP) calculated property values surrounding these high-quality waterbodies are worth over 10 billion dollars. The Pine River and Leech Watersheds have some of the highest quality lakes and fisheries within the lower 48 States. The tourism industries within Hubbard, Cass, and Crow Wing Counties generates over $393 million in sales per year (Explore Minnesota 2017). The private lands within these watersheds deserve protection strategies to ensure that the habitat stay intact and to protect the local tourism economy and tax base of Leech Lake and Pine River Watersheds. In 2016, the MN DNR, Board of Water and Soil Resources, Forest Resource Council, and Technical Service Area 8 developed a protection framework based on MN DNR Fisheries Cisco research. The MN DNR identified a strong correlation between lake water quality and habitat that sustains fish populations and maintaining 75 percent forest cover in the watershed. The LSPs determined existing protection levels in each of the 144 minor watersheds and the number of acres needed to achieve the 75 percent protection goal. The Leech and Pine River One Watershed One Plans (1W1P) adopted the 75 percent protection goal and pinpointed private woodlands as important to preserve. The 1W1Ps identified issues, concerns, and developed a targeted and measurable 10-year implementation plan. Both plans recognized conservation easements as an important tool to protect priority groundwater, habitat, and surface water. Mitch Brinks, a mapping specialist, developed a methodology for targeting specific large-tract private forested parcels. The methodology is called RAQ (Riparian, Adjacent, Quality), each private forested parcel is scored on a 0-10 scale based on the parcel proximity to water (?Riparian?) or other protected lands (?Adjacency?) and various local defined features (?Quality?), such as wild rice, cisco, and biodiversity (terrestrial or aquatic). The greatest risk for development and fragmentation is riparian private forest lands. The RAQ tool prioritizes private parcels adjacent to state or federal lands (protected lands in the model). This will create extensive long-lasting habitat complexes. The LSPs calculated private ownership as 49 percent and 28 percent (Pine River and Leech Watersheds). Over 320,000 acres of high-quality private forest (over 20 acres in size) has no protection status within these watersheds. The LSPs and 1W1Ps selected Headwaters, Whitefish lake, Lower Pine, Little Pine River, Woman Lake, Steamboat River, and Kabekona River (7 of 12 minor Watersheds) for habitat protection. Staff will utilize RAQ scores to filter 320,000 acres to 900 acres within the minor watersheds. The 30-year-old BWSR RIM program has completed 7,000 easements.

Dollars budget for fee title acquisition will be returned to the Outdoor Heritage Fund. Over the life of the ACUB program the Department of Defense has contributed over $30M towards easement acquisition. For this particular phase over $4M in federal funding was leveraged making a fed:state ratio of 2.7:1.  ",,"The purpose of this initiative was to protect fish, migratory birds, big game, and oak habitat along the Crow Wing, Gull, Nokasippi, and Mississippi Rivers via fee title acquisitions and conservation easements. These river corridors are also very vulnerable to habitat degradation due to the potential for development. The Camp Ripley military training center is located immediately adjacent to the confluence of the Crow Wing and Mississippi Rivers. Camp Ripley contains 19 miles of Mississippi River frontage and 8 miles of Crow Wing River frontage that provide habitat for many species including 45 Species of Greatest Conservation Need. This project will build upon existing Camp Ripley partnership success with the Army Compatible Use Buffer program (ACUB). This federal program provides funds to protect adjacent lands from encroaching development and in the process protects the training center, water quality and wildlife habitat. As of this writing the ACUB program has protected over 25,000 acres through conservation easements and fee title including 204 RIM easements totaling over 22,000 acres. In 2013 alone BWSR received $4,088,000 in from National Guard Bureau and Department of Army ACUB funds for easement acquisition. As of this writing, over the life of the ACUB program, over $33,000,000 in from National Guard Bureau and Department of Army funds have been directed to BWSR for easement acquisition.       This project utilized Camp Ripley’s partnerships with the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR), MN Department of Natural Resources (DNR),The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Morrison Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) to solicit applications and to score and rank applications.The partnership uses a variety of methods to generate landowner interest and solicit applications including; mailings, open houses, direct contact with landowners and special Camp Ripley events. Applications are sorted into agricultural easements (Non-OHF) and riparian and forested lands easements (OHF). They are then scored and ranked against a GIS based system that ranks parcels based upon a number of factors including habitat quality and proximity to Camp Ripley. Applications are then funded in priority order from appropriate funding sources until all funds are used up. The application process is continuous and there is generally a considerable backlog of interested landowners at any specific point in time. Once a funding decision has been made Morrison SWCD and BWSR work together to accomplish the standard RIM easement acquisition process and the easement becomes part of the RIM portfolio.  Although there were no fee title projects that came to fruition during this appropriation the general process is that DNR, with the support of partners, negotiates directly with landowners that are in the approved boundaries for Wildlife Management Areas.

In addition 19 RIM-WRP easements, totaling 2,239 acres were funded. Thus a total of 3,385 acres were protected and restored to wetland and grassland habitat. All easements have been recorded. Leverage from other sources of funds was a little over $4.5M. ",,"  The RIM Wetlands and RIM-WRP  Partnership accelerated the restoration and protection of 3,385 acres of previously drained wetlands and associated upland native grassland wildlife habitat complexes via permanent conservation easements. The goal of RIM Wetlands and the RIM-WRP Partnership was to achieve the greatest wetland functions and values, while optimizing wildlife habitat on every acre enrolled in the partnership.  The RIM-WRP partnership combined Minnesota's RIM Reserve conservation easement program and the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP). Combining RIM Reserve and WRP allowed OHF to leverage Federal Farm Bill conservation dollars to Minnesota. Utilizing both programs resulted in competitive payment rates to landowners and sharing of the costs associated with perpetual easement acquisition and restoration by both the federal and state programs. Unfortunately, circumstances beyond our control such as staffing and other issues at NRCS severely limited the agencies ability to close easements and implement restorations, and BWSR was obligated to restructure the RIM-WRP Partnership into RIM Wetlands in November of 2014. The inability of NRCS to follow through on commitments, dramatically increasing crop and land values and reduced federal leverage resulted in fewer acres being accomplished than originally proposed. These changes are reflected in the 11/18/14 Accomplishment Plan Amendment and testimony provided by BWSR staff at that time.  The RIM Wetlands Program and RIM-WRP Partnership held one to two joint meetings per year to provide program oversight and guidance and to establish payment rates for upcoming sign-ups. Specifically,both programs used the USFWS Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET), located in Fergus Falls, to develop a GIS Wildlife Habitat Potential Model that was used with the WRP and RIM Reserve programs’ environmental evaluation. In addition, the Minnesota Wetland Restoration Evaluation Worksheet was used to evaluate each easement application on its potential to restore wetland functions and values along with optimum wildlife habitat benefits. Both programs were offered statewide but had a priority focus in the ecological provinces of the state that have experienced significant losses of wetland and associated prairies. It was delivered by Ducks Unlimited (DU) staff, local NRCS staff, local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) staff and assisted by program staff from both NRCS and the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR). Since the SWCD is responsible for the local delivery of the RIM Reserve program to private landowners on behalf of the State of Minnesota, they were ideally suited to work in concert with their local DU and NRCS staff to efficiently and effectively deliver the RIM-WRP partnership. In the case of RIM-WRP once an easement is acquired NRCS is responsible for maintenance, inspection and monitoring during the life of their 30-year WRP easement. The state of Minnesota assumes sole responsibility via its RIM Reserve easement once the 30-year WRP easement has expired. For RIM Wetlands the state assumes responsibility for monitoring and enforcement as soon as the easement is recorded. BWSR partners with local SWCDs to carry-out oversight, monitoring and inspection of its conservation easements.  Throughout its  history the RIM-WRP Partnership demonstrated that the State of Minnesota can cooperatively work with a federal partner (NRCS) and through a local delivery system (SWCD, NRCS, and DU) to implement a permanent easement protection program that yielded thousands of acres of permanently protected wildlife habitat. Significant leverage obtained was due to the amount of easement payments, conservation plan payments, and other costs the NRCS contributed to this partnership. The NRCS made the bulk of the easement payment portion through 30-year WRP Easement acquisition, while BWSR paid an additional portion for the Permanent RIM Easement. It is most unfortunate that this partnership had to end after conserving nearly 20,000 acres cumulatively. NRCS paid a high percentage of the restoration costs for these easements, with RIM picking up the remaining costs. The use of NRCS Practice Standards, along with BWSR's Native Vegetation Guidelines led to very high diversity mixes being seeded. The level of wetland restoration was dependent on restorable extent that would not impact lands outside the easement area.  BWSR & NRCS evaluated restoration extent during our scoring review to ensure restoration was actually feasible, then followed up with site analysis and surveys. Eight RIM Wetlands applications were selected for funding on 1146.2 acres with this appropriation. In addition 19 RIM-WRP easements, totaling 2,239 acres were funded.  These restored wetlands and native grassland complexes will provide critical habitat for migratory waterfowl and other wetland dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wetlands and adjacent grasslands provide habitat for waterfowl, pheasants, deer and non-game species, some that are threatened or endangered. As of 8/21/18 9 easements have been restored and 17 are in the restoration process. BWSR and the NRCS are committed to seeing all restorations through to ensure all sites provide beneficial habitat. Due to delays with easement processing, restoration was also delayed in several cases.  BWSR is held to the statutory requirement that requires restoration of the easements we acquire. This restoration includes establishment of acceptable vegetation, if the current cover does not adequately meet site goals. Note that due to LSOHC database architecture and migration of this old project into the ""new"" LSOHC database amended goals are not reflected in the ""original"" budget and output columns of this final report.     ",2012-07-01,2014-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tim,Koehler,BWSR,"520 Lafayette Rd.

The 7-acre lake receives runoff from a 175-acre urban watershed that was developed in the 1950's and currently provides very little stormwater treatment. The eastern shoreline is within Thompson County Park, which features a fishing pier, event center, and miles of regionally connected trails. The west shoreline of the lake abuts the St. Croix Lutheran School. Thompson Lake is impaired for recreational use due to excessive nutrients, and is on the MPCA's 2014 Impaired Waters list. A watershed restoration and protection strategies (WRAPS) study and total maximum daily load (TMDL) developed from 2012 to 2014 identified watershed runoff as the primary source of phosphorus to the lake; the TMDL identified a phosphorus waste load reduction of 30% necessary to achieve MPCA water quality standards. The proposed project will treat stormwater runoff prior to discharge into Thompson Lake, thereby reducing phosphorus concentrations in the lake, improving lake clarity, and leading to removal from the Impaired Waters list. The project includes construction of a series of upland stormwater basins at the north end of the lake, inside Thompson County Park, to treat runoff from 83% of the watershed (145 acres). The project will include sediment forebays at storm sewer outfalls, a stormwater wetland/pond, and a stormwater reuse irrigation system that draws water from the wetland and irrigates nearby parkland.

The intent of this effort is to complete a pilot project to a legal ditch system that is in disrepair and use it as an example to educate landowners along other legal ditches on the importance of water quality. This pilot project consists of the construction of berms and side inlet culverts for sediment control along Traverse County Ditch #17 (TCD 17) and its single branch (B1) . This modification, also known as a retrofit, will be completed as a repair under MN Statues 103E.021, Subd. 6 which will ensure these erosion control features become a permanent part of the legal ditch. TCD 17 flows west to east and outlets into Twelve Mile Creek eight miles northeast of Wheaton, MN. Twelve Mile Creek flows north to the Mustinka River which ultimately enters Lake Traverse. Twelve Mile Creek and the Mustinka River have well documented issues regarding the exceedance of TMDL for turbidity, phosphorus, and overall poor biota. TCD 17 has a watershed of approximately 4.5 square miles, the land is used primarily for agricultural production. Berms and intercept culverts along legal ditch systems help to prevent sediment transport at the source and reduce turbidity downstream. The TCD 17 retrofit is aimed to be the first of many legal ditch retrofit projects within the BdSWD . By completing this retrofit it is estimated to reduce sediment loading by 340 tons/year and phosphorus loading by 700 lbs/year while working to restore and protect water resources for public use and public health.

Two primary waterways in the watershed, Deerhorn Creek and the South Branch, are listed as impaired for turbidity. Due to sediment deposition in the channel, the waterways have lost much of their capacity. Historical attempts by landowners and others to restore the capacity of the channel by removing sediment have had limited success due to additional excess sediment being washed into the channel. The project addresses a 155 square mile watershed. LiDAR terrain analysis will be used over the entire watershed area to identify existing and potential areas of high sediment contributions (i.e. gullies). The analysis will target the best locations for measures to reduce sediment loads and runoff. This analysis will help identify and rank high priority areas for installation of soil conservation practicess such as sediment control basins and side inlet structures. Both of these methods will reduce the peak discharge rate of the watershed by storing runoff in the watershed. Also, by temporarily storing the water within the contributing watershed, these practices will reduce the sediment and nutrient loads traveling downstream. The Buffalo-Red River Watershed District has partnered with the Wilkin and West Otter Tail SWCDs to complete this project.

With the dual goals of treating stormwater runoff and educating the public, the SWCD applied for and received a Clean Water Fund grant to implement several pre-designed BMPs at public locations in Chisago County. Three locations will be involved: the Wyoming Library, the Chisago Lakes Middle School, and the Rush City High School. These locations are spread out throughout Chisago County in three separate cities, are all highly visible to the public, and will reach different audiences. Water-smart BMPs reduce the impacts of stormwater runoff by slowing, capturing, or infiltrating water. Runoff water carries sediment, chemicals, excess nutrients, and other undesirable items into the nearest water body, which reduces clarity, quality, and habitat. The implementation of infiltration basins and swales captures runoff from highly impervious areas, such as roofs and parking lots. Water that is directed into these BMPs is allowed to infiltrate into the ground, which causes phosphorus, sediment, and organic matter to filter out of the water.

The Whetstone River Restoration project will provide water quality benefits to surface waters in Minnesota by hydrologically reconnecting the Whetstone River to its' historic channel and natural floodplain. The UMWRD purchased land needed for the restoration in 2021 and is now seeking $600,000, to combine with existing grants from the MNDNR and a MPCA CWF Loan Program to complete floodplain establishment and channel restoration work in Minnesota. This request is just under 10% of the overall estimated project costs. The overall project will reduce phosphorus loading in Big Stone Lake by 65,320 pounds per year, achieving 17% of the needed nonpoint source progress towards restoring Big Stone Lake. UMRWD purchased additional land, adjacent to the historic channel, to establish a natural floodplain which will allow for sediment to deposit, reducing phosphorous levels downstream in Marsh Lake by 2,576 pounds per year. The UMRWD is seeking relatively modest CWF support, compared to the overall budget and is committed to owning, operating, and maintaining all components of the overall project and has commitments from Big Stone County, MN and Grant County, SD to maintain the transportation components modified by the project.",2024-03-18,,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Amber,Doschadis,"Upper Minnesota River WD","211 Second St SE",Ortonville,MN,56278,320-839-3411,amber@umrwd.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Big Stone",,"Minnesota River - Headwaters",https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/whetstone-river-restoration,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,"Annie Felix-Gerth",no

Total expenditure was $1,355,000 which was 17% lower than originally budgeted. No fee-title land acquisition opportunities on wild rice lakes that fit within DNR and other government agency land plans were available during this time period thus DU did not expend any of the $100,000 budgeted for fee-title acquisition. Instead the program focused on RIM easements.  ","    ","The second phase of Wild Rice Shoreland Protection was intended to protect additional wild rice shoreland and continue the success of Phase I. BWSR, DU, DNR, SWCDs and other partners (see below) worked closely together to continue protection of vulnerable and ecologically valuable wild rice lake shorelands and grow the program which has led to subsequent phases III-V with Phase VI proposed for ML19 funding. Wild rice shoreland encompasses a complex of shallow lakes, rivers, and shallow bays of deeper lakes that support rice and provide some of the most important habitat for wetland-dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wild rice habitat is especially important to Minnesota’s migrating and breeding waterfowl and provides Minnesotans with unique recreation opportunities: hunting waterfowl and harvesting the rice itself for food.  Historically, wild rice occurred throughout Minnesota and extended into northern Iowa. Wild rice has since been extirpated from most of its southern range due to human impacts. Today, the heart of the states wild rice acreage falls within this project work area comprised of eight counties Aitkin, Carlton, Cass, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, St. Louis, and Wadena. These counties also account for 70% of harvesting trips for state licensed harvesters. This wild rice shoreland complex exists primarily in the state's Forest Section and remains intact with good water quality, but it is subject to intense development pressure that, if allowed, will degrade the resource. Recent well-documented population and development trends pose a serious threat to wild rice habitat in the Northern Forest Section. This population and development boom has reduced the availability of developable shoreline on recreational lakes, resulting in shallow lakes, rivers, and shallow bays containing wild rice being increasingly targeted for shoreline development. Shallow lakes and rivers in the forest are very susceptible to the impacts of shoreline development. The scoring and ranking process placed a strong emphasis on protecting the most vulnerable shorelines that were offered. Tracts were selected based on the degree they help permanently protect all the land around a given wild rice water body. Through the work of six SWCD offices, BWSR acquired 26  RIM shoreland easements from wild rice lake and river shoreline landowners. The BWSR/SWCD easements were acquired using the standard RIM process. Future monitoring and enforcement will be conducted via the standard RIM monitoring process. Although no fee-title acquisitions were completed during this phase the work of the partners paid off in subsequent phases as groundwork from this phase resulted in fee-title acquisition in Phase 3.   ",2013-07-01,2017-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Dan,Steward,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources","1601 Minnesota Drive ",Brainerd,MN,56401,"(218) 828-2598",dan.steward@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Aitkin, Carlton, Cass, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, St. Louis, Wadena","Northern Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/wild-rice-shoreland-protection,,,,

Significant gully erosion and scour erosion occurs along Wolverton Creek creating the turbidity and sediment problem. The Project will identify lands for bufferstrip establishment and locations for side inlets and grade control for BMP implementation. The project is expected to reduce sediment loadings by 1295 tons/year and phosphorus loadings by 1480 lbs/year. In addition, installation of buffer strips and conservation tillage is expected to significantly reduce sediment and phosphorus loadings. A restoration plan for a segment of Wolverton Creek will be developed with input from the Department of Natural Resources through a separate grant and and integrate additional conservation practices. The teamwork of the BRRWD and the Clay and Wilkin SWCDs has resulted in success in addressing sediment and water erosion issues in the outlet of the Wolverton Creek watershed. With the grant from the Clean Water Fund, this project will continue the implementation of conservation measures to reduce sediment and nutrient loadings further upstream.

The project will treat urban runoff from 110-acres of a residential and commercial area that is intercepted by the Woodland Avenue storm sewer and currently discharged, untreated, from a 3' diameter pipe directly into the Creek, resulting in a visible sediment plume. Tischer Creek is listed by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as impaired for E. coli (bacteria), with total suspended solids (TSS) levels just below the water quality standard. The project will also help maintain cold baseflow to the creek and an associated tributary during drought conditions, restore pre-development hydrology and reduce ""flashiness"" that can lead to stream bank erosion. The project would implement an action (treat urban runoff) that is called for in several watershed plans. Treatment will be provided via a 212,096 cubic foot capacity green infrastructure system to be constructed on City of Duluth property. To divert runoff into the treatment area, St. Louis County will reconstruct a portion of the storm sewer under Woodland Avenue as part of a 2024 road project. After pre-treatment via a sedimentation vault near the road, runoff will flow into a sedimentation basin and marsh followed by a series of bio-infiltration basins. The last basin includes biochar for bacteria removal. Basins and surrounding areas will be planted with native vegetation appropriate for the site. The project will include at least three years of vegetation maintenance, invasives control and re-planting by a qualified contractor. The project makes use of a previously farmed area that was ranked #1 by a City study of potential sites for adding green infrastructure. In addition to capturing 11.3 tons/year of sediment and associated bacteria, trash and other pollutants, the green infrastructure is designed to maximize recharge of groundwater to support nearby wetlands and baseflow to Tributary 7 to Tischer Creek. Bio-infiltration basin design includes 12? of course aggregate below the drain tile to help cool water and allow for recharge of shallow groundwater, while the final discharge is designed to diffuse flow into an existing wetland adjacent to Tributary 7. The project offers multiple opportunities to leverage other funding sources as well as significant contributions of time and expertise by County and City staff. oThe County has secured federal funding to cover 75% of design and construction costs. This request would cover the 25% match during construction. Project design has used federal funds with the County covering 25% match. The project will be ready to go to bid winter 2023/24. oCosts to rebuild storm sewer under Woodland Ave to divert flow, estimated at $115,000, will be covered by the County's road project budget. In addition, during the BMP project design phase, St. Louis County covered the 25% match (approx. $50,000, half via staff time). oThe City-County partnership pools resources of both jurisdictions to achieve the best project at lowest cost with highest potential for long-term success. After starting conceptual design of a smaller system in the road right-of-way, the project was expanded in 2022 via a formal agreement with the City of Duluth to build the project in a portion of Hartley Park that was once farmland and is currently dominated by invasive, non-native vegetation. The City of Duluth will own, operate and maintain the BMPs after construction is complete. St. Louis County Public Works, which typically implements $60 million/yr. of construction projects, is taking the lead on design, funding, bidding, contracting and construction oversight.
