The Project will meet plan goals for water quality and altered hydrology effects by replacing the existing ditch with a 300-foot wide, 260 acre floodplain corridor with a 6.7-mile meandering channel focused on natural channel design. Approximately 30 water quality side inlets will be installed at targeted areas along the corridor to provide additional water quality benefits to the rehabilitated reach. In addition to the stream rehabilitation, the project will provide approximately 34 acres of constructed wetland habitat and 226 acres of native upland buffer areas within the stream channel and associated floodplain areas, permanently protected by the District. The Mustinka River Rehabilitation Project was initially supported by an FY22 BWSR P&P award of $800,000. However, because Minnesota's Flood Hazard Mitigation Program was unable to provide additional funding during FY22, the Project Team split the Mustinka River Rehabilitation Project into Phase 2a and 2b. This strategy facilitated the timely expenditure of committed funds and prevented costly construction delays. The Phase 2a effort is currently constructing the downstream 2.5 miles of the meandering bypass channel. It is scheduled for completion in November 2023. The current proposal seeks funding for Phase 2b, which will construct the remaining 4.2 miles of the meandering bypass channel. Phase 2b is scheduled to begin in the spring and will reach completion by the end of 2024. Crucially, the MN FHM program has now committed $4.4M to the Phase 2b effort in 2024. Overall, the Mustinka River Rehabilitation Project is estimated to reduce sediment loading to the impaired reach of the Mustinka River by 253 tons/yr and phosphorus by 72 lbs/year. This will result in achieving 21% of the overall short-term sediment reduction goal and 19% of the phosphorus reduction goal for the entire Lower Mustinka and Twelvemile Creek planning region as identified in the CWMP. Rehabilitation of this river will meet 35% of the plan goal to stabilize priority reaches to decrease excessive erosion and channel sediment accumulation.

This project proposes installation of 41 grade stabilization structures (i.e., side inlet structures) and 5 miles of continuous berms to be constructed as a permanent part of Traverse County Ditch (TCD) 35. This project will reduce sediment loading to both the Mustinka River and Twelvemile Creek by 230 tons per year and phosphorus by 65 lbs per year. This project will meet 20% of the annual sediment reduction and 17% of the short-term goals set in the Comprehensive Water Management Plan (CWMP). The improvement proceeding will acquire and establish all legally required grass buffers throughout the drainage system. The overall, long-term benefit of these efforts include reduced soil erosion and sedimentation of the drainage system, reduced pollutant loading, increased ditch functionality, and reduced peak flows.

The secondary goal of the project is protection of public surface waters and measurable progress towards reduction of nutrient and sediment pollution to impaired watercourses. We will accomplish these goals by the implementation of 1200 new acres of cover crops, 700 new acres of residue and tillage management and 200 new acres of conservation crop rotation annually for three years. We will utilize a targeted approach for contract enrollment by ranking fields within the radius of the Browns Valley DWSMA as highest priority, fields near remaining municipal DWSMAs as second highest priority and fields harvested for silage as lowest priority for interventions. The outcomes of this project will be measurable. The number of landowners contacted, acres of land with BMPs implemented, and the calculated amount of pollution reduction will be quantified and reported. We believe the project will ultimately result in a cultural acceptance and long-term local adoption of soil health practices. We will provide cooperating agricultural producers with the tools and resources they need to sustain implementation of soil health practices beyond the life of contracts. In addition, the project will provide new adopters of soil health BMPs an opportunity to implement practices while reducing risk to family farm operations. Results of the project are estimated to be a total reduction of 367 tons of sediment, 366 pounds of phosphorus, and 5548 pounds of nitrogen from entering surface waters every year.

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.
