Contact grants@mnhs.org","In our original application, we cited two different short-term goals and how we would measure the success of each. First we wanted to create a list of institutions that may have holdings related to World War I that identified some portion of Dakota County for our research. Next, our Exhibit Researcher (ER) was to travel to those locations to determine if there was anything in their collection useful to our research. After identifying a list of organizations (Minnesota Historical Society / History Center, Immigration Library, etc.), our researcher called each location to speak with someone from their staff, or did an online search when available. We were successful in finding materials in the institutions with a more broad focus, rather than narrow focus (i.e. county). Our most successful visits from the list we created were to the Minnesota History Center and the Immigration Library. However, we still had found more useful materials in our own collection of microfilm that contained local newspapers. We believe we were successful, since the list did provide us with additional information and resources we did not have in our own possession. Our next goal was an intermediate one that sought to have compiled all of the research into themes and categories. We undoubtedly were successful in this category due to our ER providing us with a User Guide to her research, as well as sorted files by categories with paper copies of what was found. The paper files are broken down by themes of ""Agriculture / Farmers,"" ""Not WWI"" (Women's Suffrage, etc.), ""1918 Flue Pandemic & Disease,"" Education / Training,"" Race,"" Peace Activism / Socialists,"" etc. By having these files, along with the User Guide, our next phase of creating the exhibit will be much simpler, while also providing a permanent collection that researchers can utilize. Lastly, our long-term goal was to find content that was not already in our collection to preserve for the public. Again, we have been much more successful than our organization could have thought of when it came to this goal. The amount of detail in organizing the information found by our ER provides our Research Library with a wealth of new information that we anticipate being used excessively during the span of our exhibit and into the future. With each community having their own file, as well as general information during this time frame, we anticipate this being used for more than just World War I research. As in our original grant, the inforamtion can be used for at least the next 5-10 years on various research topics, but also fill a void in our permanent collection.",,111,"Available upon request.

Of this amount, up to $120,000 is for establishing monitoring and enforcement funds as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. Subject to evaluation criteria in Minnesota Rules, part 6136.0900, priority must be given to acquisition of lands that are eligible for the native prairie bank under Minnesota Statutes, section 84.96, or lands adjacent to protected native prairie.

",,,,1028700,18000,,0.18,DNR,"State Government","The Native Prairie Bank Program will work with willing landowners to enroll 420 acres of native prairie in perpetual conservation easements. Enrollment will focus on Minnesota Prairie Plan identified landscapes and target high quality prairies that provide valuable wildlife habitat. ",,"The loss of native prairie and associated grassland habitat is arguably the greatest conservation challenge facing western and southern Minnesota. This appropriation aimed to protect 420 acres of native prairie habitat by accelerating the enrollment of Native Prairie Bank easements. Not only were the prairie protection outcomes met but they were exceeded by 99 acres. Acceleration, such as this, is necessary to address the loss of native prairie and associated grasslands. Today, only about 1.3% of Minnesota’s original 18 million acres of prairie remains. The few remaining acres of native prairie once were thought of as unsuitable for crop production, however with advancements in technology and equipment, in addition to growing competition for tillable acres, this is no longer the case. Unfortunately, grassland-to-cropland conversion is not the only impact to native prairie, significant degradation and loss is also occurring due to property development, aggregate extraction, and lack of prairie-oriented management. If the current trajectory of grassland and prairie loss continues it will be devastating to grassland dependent wildlife populations. Recognizing that protecting grassland and wetland habitat is one of the most critical conservation challenges facing Minnesota, over a dozen leading conservation organizations have developed a road map for moving forward – the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan. This plan calls for several outcomes, one being the protection of all remaining native prairie, largely through conservation easements. One of the primary easement tools for native prairie protection in Minnesota is the DNR administered Native Prairie Bank easement. Native Prairie Bank was established by the 1987 legislature to protect private native prairie lands by authorizing the state to acquire conservation easements from willing landowners. Native Prairie Bank targets the protection of native prairie tracts but can also include adjoining lands as buffers and additional habitat. Originally, this appropriation aimed to protect 420 acres of native prairie through Native Prairie Bank easements. Eligible tracts were to be located within priority landscapes identified in the Minnesota Prairie Plan and prioritized based on several evaluation factors including: 1) Size and quality of habitat, focusing on diverse native prairie communities that have been identified by the Minnesota Biological Survey 2) The occurrence of rare species, or suitability habitat for rare species 3) Lands that are part of a larger habitat complex Ultimately, 7 native prairie parcels for a total of 519 acres (99 acres more than initial 420-acre goal) were perpetually protected through this appropriation via Native Prairie Bank Easements. These now protected native prairies are unique natural resources that consist of thousands of different organisms, plants, animals, bacteria, and soil fungi. Their complex interactions provide the food, water and shelter required by many of Minnesota’s rare, threatened, and endangered species. These prairies house a wide variety of pollinator species, some of which often cannot survive in other habitats, including prairie restorations.

This work is called for in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan, Long Range Duck Recovery Plan, and Shallow Lakes plan. ",,"ML2016 Accelerated Shallow Lakes and Wetland Enhancement Phase 8 entailed three components. * Engineering, Construction, and/or Management of Individual Shallow Lake/Wetland Projects - Fourteen individual projects were undertaken with funding from this appropriation. Two of these projects, Swamp Lake (Aitkin County) and Puposky Lake (Beltrami County), entailed extensive cleanout of outlet channels leading to better water level management. These projects are necessary when downstream outlets become clogged with sediment and vegetation and water levels in shallow lakes become abnormally high. Specialized (and expensive) equipment such as Swamp Devils, Cookie Cutters, or extended-reach excavators, removed accumulated sediments and other obstructions to surveyed levels. The resulting water elevations return to lower levels and habitat benefits are often dramatic. Five projects - Clear Lake (Murray County) Eckvoll WMA (Marshall County), Typhoon WMA (Cottonwood County), Sterle Pool/Sawyer WMA (Carlton County), and Buena Vista (Beltrami County) - were completed and involved engineering and construction of wetland/shallow lake infrastructure such as dikes and water control structures. In all of these projects, engineering was done in-house (i.e. DNR engineers) and private contractors were used for the construction. Finally, seven infrastructure projects were engineered only, with construction planned for the future. Doing this initial engineering allows us to determine project feasibility, identify construction obstacles, and obtain accurate cost estimates for materials and construction. While five of these engineering-only projects were accomplished with in-house engineers, the other two projects were completed with private engineering consultants, as in-house engineering is becoming more difficult to obtain. Obtaining needed engineering support is an issue we continue to look at. *Shallow Lakes Program - The Shallow Lakes Program is a high-visibility program within the DNR Section of Wildlife that uses single-focused Shallow Lakes Specialists to (1) perform standardized assessments of shallow lakes and (2) to bring about needed management or infrastructure changes where needed to enhance shallow lake habitat. Work by these Specialists guides Shallow Lakes work by both DNR Wildlife staff and NGOs. Funding from this appropriation allowed the addition of three Shallow Lake Specialists who are stationed at Detroit Lakes, Tower, and Brainerd and provided their funding for three fiscal years - Fy17-FY19. During this time the Specialists reported doing 183 shallow lake assessments covering 76,602 acres. This assessment work directly leads to shallow lake project initiation by the DNR and DU to address needed management and infrastructure issues that lead to enhanced habitat. * Roving Habitat Crews - Roving Habitat Crews are teams of DNR staff who are equipped and trained to performP a g e 3 | 12 habitat enhancement projects on public lands. Funding from this appropriation was provided to the Region 1 Roving Habitat Crew to enable it to perform wetland enhancement activities through the addition of two roving crew members and their associated costs for three fiscal years (FY17-FY19). Typical wetland enhancement activities undertaken by Roving Habitat Crews include prescribed burns of wetlands, removal of invasive species and trees from wetlands, support of shallow lake drawdowns, and seeding wild rice. The Region 1 Roving Habitat Crew notably was involved in recent wetland management actions for which acres were reported in other appropriations and will not be reported in this report to avoid double-counting. Examples include the 7,000+ acre prescribed wetland burn that was done at Roseau River WMA. The Reg. 1 Roving Habitat Crew initiated, planned, and led the large effort to do this burn, but the acres were reported in the ML2015 Shallow Lakes and Wetland Enhancements Phase 7 Final Report, which provided the funding the helicopter that performed the aerial ignition using a helitorch. Likewise, cattail spraying done with the OHF-funded spray unit on a DNR helicopter used Reg. 1. Roving Habitat Crew members as ground support staff to load herbicide and refuel the helicopter between spray flights, a job liked to being an Indy pit crew, but with a running helicopter. Acres for this activity are reported in the OHF appropriations that fund the helicopter and chemical costs. Finally, the Reg. 1 Roving Habitat Crew stepped in when Covid-19 hiring restrictions prevented the DNR from hiring season technicians to run the OHF-purchased airboat on Rice Lake. Reg. 1 crew members volunteered to get the needed airboat training, then worked in shifts to operate the airboat during the field season. As an added bonus, innovative and mechanically adept Reg. 1 crew members decided they could improve the airboat cutting attachment. They crafted their own cutters which have proven more effective than the original equipment.

These tools utilize Thunderstorm Maps to predict productivity of breeding waterfowl, grassland birds, and other wildlife species for the potential parcel and surrounding area. By utilizing these tools, we were able to focus efforts in areas where acquisitions and restorations will make the greatest impact on the landscape and thus these additional acres of WPA are very beneficial to wildlife and public recreation. Pheasants Forever notified counties prior to acquisition of lands. Once acquired, the USFWS will make a one-time Trust Fund payment to the County where the property is located. Additionally, the USFWS will make annual Refuge Revenue Sharing payments for all fee lands within the respective counties. Once acquired, wetlands on each parcel were restored by installing surface ditch “plugs” and/or breaking subsurface tile. Some wetlands may also have had sediment removed to create proper substrates for wetland function and vegetative growth.

Trained interpretive naturalists travel with animals to all corners of the state and deliver programs at schools, libraries, community centers, children’s hospitals, senior centers and more. Zoomobile participants experience live animals up close and learn about the ecological principles that connect all living things to one another. Legacy funding makes it possible to expand the service and reach of Zoomobile by sending more staff and more animals throughout the state.

Students partnered with Rondo Avenue, Inc. (the governing board of the community) to reconstitute the historic business district of the Rondo neighborhood from 1920-1960 using GIS mapping technology. This project drew inspiration from an earlier map by Rondo resident Jim Gerlich of important Rondo landmarks and businesses during the same time period. However, due to space limitations, only businesses established every 10 years could be included. There are no such restrictions on a digital map though, so over the course of the semester, students used the new microfilm scanner to scan all the Rondo-based business ads in the St. Paul Echo (1925-1927), Twin City Herald (1927-1940), and St. Paul Sun (1951-1976). Students presented their research to members of the Rondo Avenue, Inc. Board at the end the semester.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","Results to the below outcomes were measured through surveys of visitors, conversations, and informal guest book comments. The outcomes were all successful due in part to the professionalism of the exhibition and the time and thought that went in to all programs. Outcomes included: 1) Residents of Maplewood understand the connection between Maplewood's land characteristics and 3M's choice to site their campus there. Visitors showed intellectual connections to the content they learned about through the 3M and Maplewood exhibit by the quality and type of questions they asked in other areas of the farm. This outcome was successful. 2) Residents of Maplewood can describe the impact of 3M's presence on the growth of their city. Visitors who attended the Bruentrup Heritage Farm asked follow-up questions that reflected a deeper understanding of how the arrival of 3M in Maplewood both shaped and reflected broader suburban and corporate trends. This outcome was successful. 3) Residents of Maplewood and other Minnesotans begin to better understand the mutually beneficial, but largely separate relationship between 3M and Maplewood. Public discussions about incorporation and the rise of the corporate campus reflected knowledge about the consequences of the suburbanization era. This outcome was successful, and continues to grow through social media and informal conversations. 4) Residents of Maplewood begin to value local history more. Membership to the MAHS increased, attendance at MAHS events increased, positive letters to the editor and political advocacy for history increased. This outcome was partially successful.

Each count developed and held public programs related to the alpha site project, from presentations to hands-on activities. Multiple presentations were fairly-well attended, most likely due to the fact that content dealt directly with local areas, however, the number of events may have been ambitious. It may have been more realistic to have fewer events. See list of events and attendance in the submitted documents. Although widely publicized, we did not achieve the targeted capstone event; it was canceled due to lack of interest, possibly due to a variety of factors including the event timing and location. It was difficult to do a large amount of fieldwork in the off-season due to the timing of grant cycle. Conversion of site form submittal from hard copy to portal occurred during the project - ultimately, as the OSA portal is currently set up, we end up completing hard copies for the project, then transferring the information into the digital portal. The current portal doesn:t have a way of printing site forms (something they are working on) - also on this note, we were told after starting the project that the Office of the State Archaeologist will give new site numbers but always retains alpha site numbers as a way of double checking field work and projects - in other words - you may find a lithic scatter, but it might not be THE lithic scatter in the Alpha Site Form.

First, the inventory provided an overview of their holdings in greater detail. Second, it identifed gaps in the collection. Third, the project maximized limited resources for collections care by identifying materials in need of conservation. Fourth, ensure staff can better utilize the holdings for exhibitions, programs, and outreach. Finally, the inventory allows for improved access to the collections by staff and the audiences they serve. They now have a current list of every archival item or folder level in regards to the most recently processed materials. This will benefit researchers, staff, genealogists, and students who visit SHM. Their ability to process new collections has improved by utilizing their recently created manual and spreadsheets.

We plan to support high-quality, age appropriate arts education for residents of all ages - beginning with the youngest. Students not only participate and follow directions, but are actually taught vocabulary, about stage direction, how to block a scene and much more. This will enhance their understanding of the art of musical theatre. The evaluation tool we have written up will be administered at the parent meeting when scripts and music are handed out shortly after auditions and before rehearsals start. A second survey will be given to students at the end of the production, and we will compare answers for growth and changes. The survey will be administered to all students, with parents helping their children in grades Kindergarten - three, fill out the survey. The reading level on this is approximately middle elementary to junior high level - so parents will need to read it to many younger children. Surveys will be tabulated at the end of the production to indicate the level of change and growth from beginning to end of the production. The questions on the survey about vocabulary are to show some of the things the children have learned while rehearsing the production mentioned in Goal 4. Asking questions about whether a child would participate if the production was not in our school district is in response to Goal 3 - Instilling the arts into the community and public life in our region. We will also look for community support through ticket sales and repeat ticket sales. These numbers can be used to judge how the community supports us through attending productions, but we will also look at parent support through the volunteerism that parents do to support the musical production, as well as how regularly the children attend the rehearsals.","Over half the children had not participated in a musical before this one. I believe it is likely they will audition for a musical again as 42% of the children said they rated the experience as ""The Best"" and 47% said they rated their experience as ""Lots of Fun"" and only 6% saying it was ""Okay"" and none answering Boring or Never Again. Overall there was a great deal of change in positive attitudes in wanting to be in a musical, onstage and perform. Children learned acting terms, how to stay in character, how to block, dances, songs and memorize lines.

This will be done through improvisation, team-building activities, and performing a musical. Through teamwork, they will produce Disney's The Lion King within one week's time. 2. Throughout the one-week process of participants experiencing the Lion King theater camp, they will produce a musical that anyone in our community will be able to attend. We will have an audience of at least 50 per night. These audience members will be exposed to high-quality musical theater through this process. 3. Through the one-week theater camp, we will inspire younger performers to be involved in the high school theater program and increase the number of students involved. We will create this lifelong learning opportunity for them and continue to maintain, support, and build our own organization while promoting and inspiring our local school's theater program. 4.

We will experience the diverse culture in The Lion King and bring it to Southwestern Minnesota. We will survey all participants at the conclusion of our week-long camp to gain an understanding of the value of their experience. Youth will be asked if their plan on continuing their theater experience. We will survey the audience to see if they enjoyed the performance and ask their opinion on what the ""next step"" should be for their community theater in their town. We will track the size of the audience and compare with previous projects. We will also track the involvement of students in the local school's theater program.

In addition, we will also use a measurement of evaluation in the form of a survey distributed to both parents and students involved in the performance. The survey will ask questions measuring student satisfaction, enthusiasm, and suggestions to improve the experience. A similar survey for the parents will ask the same questions.","The evaluation consisted of surveys of the parents and students involved in the play. We also used participation and audience counts as a form of evaluation. Thirteen of the 30 stated that the practices during the week where the best part, 10 said that the performance was the best part, and seven just said the whole thing was the best. Amazingly, 28 out of the 30 said they would participate again. Tracking the number of students involved, the thirty we had this year was up slightly from the prior year.

We can help our community overcome geographic and economic barriers to accessing high-quality musical performances close to home. In doing this we believe that we are also playing our part in instilling the arts into our community and the public life of our region. The New London Music Festival has become a yearly tradition here where people can come, enjoy the day, and experience live the rich musical tradition of our region and our country. This is very much in tune with the civic direction of New London - to make the arts an everyday part of community life. Part of this goal is to increase the number of attendees between the ages of 25 - 50 as they have been under-represented in our audiences. Each year the Festival Committee reviews survey forms, which are given to each attendee. Attendees are given an incentive to return the forms by the award of a cash door prize given to a randomly selected person who has filled out a survey form. The results of the survey tell us a lot about the demographics of our audience (home town and age), what they liked and disliked about the music and the artists, and what we can do better for next year. We also closely review attendance based on ticket sales and monitor comments left on our Facebook site. Comments, both from the survey and from Facebook, are very useful as they help give us a sense as to what genres of music are interesting and valued by our audience and what new areas we might explore. A meeting of the committee is held within a month after the Festival to read, analyze, and discuss the results and plan for the coming year. Success for us will be measured in total attendance, attendance increases within the 25 - 50 age group, and increases in approval ratings from year to year.","Attendees came from 14 Minnesota counties, 2 other states, plus Canada (2016 had attendees from 11 counties and 1 other state).

Our goals connect to organizational sustainability by offering high-quality arts experiences. Having strong, skilled volunteers and a growing audience will ensure we have the human and financial resources to continue this festival for years to come. Our 2017 evaluation will include three key methods including on-site/survey feedback, committee debriefs, and a comprehensive organizational assessment.

We will contract and work closely with Christa Otteson of Vela Strategy to design and implement the comprehensive evaluation plan. Stakeholders, including artists, will be involved through surveys and focus groups. RiverSong became a 501(c)(3) in 2015.

To showcase multi-cultural diversity of art expression, reflecting changing demographics. To form a communal container in which to safely hold and process the gamut of joy, sorrow and gratitude for a subsequent sublimation into meaning-rich art and action. To honor the memories of those who have gone before, and model holistic and active imagination towards present and future beings of our planet. To highlight and reward artists who spark year-round observations of cosmic change in fun, original, profound ways! Documentation of increasing number/diversity in participants and returning/new attendees (some travel from distant parts of Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan), adding to eight years of amazing photos. Recounting spontaneous comments (which consistently express sincere gratitude for offering an affordable holistic alternative to Hollywood Halloween-tide). Casual followups with participants/observers to discuss All Souls Night highs/lows, and ideas for possible improvements in following years. Past critiques have been very positive and folks who take time to approach us usually join in. Active Facebook/website pages where engaged public can easy contact us with photos and offer their talents/suggestions.","We offer a healthy, fun, and profound fall artistic community event and 2016 feedback confirms we achieved this again.

We expect networking of artistic collaborations to flourish year-round, as it has since our start. We have successful new relationships with aerialist, Alex Loch, Kako kids choir, the Children of the Wild theatre ensemble, and Twin Cities Barebones Puppets.

Over the long term, we will note and record whether or not writers who have attended felt that their vision of publishing a book was advanced.” - We noted 8-10 positive comments and no negative comments on the part of attendees regarding the event. - Two of the artists expressed their gratitude and that they had a positive and fun experience. - We have no data at this time on the other possible outcome mentioned; our feedback is primarily qualitative: attendees were enthused and inspired by the readings. The event is an important and positive way to honor writers and the artistic process. “To measure outcomes of Goal 2 (awareness of LSW's benefits), we will document comments and note new and renewed memberships following the event.” - We supplied at least two attendees with membership information at the event. - We met our goal to be visible, along with ARAC, as hosts/sponsors of the event. - We cannot associate new memberships or renewals directly to this event, but our number of members and renewals grew during the period of the event. The event provides good visibility for both LSW and for ARAC. “To measure outcomes of Goal 3 (hold an event that celebrates published writers), we will document attendance as well as both immediate and longer-term comments. One outcome of the event could be an annual reading of published works by LSW members.” - About 35 people attended the event. - This is our most qualitative area of measurement, though later in this report we advocate for more opportunities for prose readings sponsored by LSW, based partly on the enthusiasm attendees demonstrated and described at the event.

We want to show off the dazzling quality of the Felgemaker organ housed in the Music Center, and present one of the world’s premier organists, in a multimedia performance which will expose many new audience members to this fine instrument—people who would likely never come to an organ concert. Next, we want to begin collaborations with other media and other presenting organizations, and this venture into film and music will open new opportunities for this intention. Measurable outcomes include new audiences and new programming. We plan to distribute a questionnaire to audience members to determine whether they have come to Sacred Heart before, if they have heard original organ music before, and if they enjoyed the experience. We also plan to offer a discussion-and-snacks reception after the film, so that we can learn how audiences related to both the film and the music, and so audience members can learn about film history (this will be hosted by a film-studies scholar such as Richard Hansen, who directs the Duluth Superior Film Festival). These two methods of feedback-- written, and through direct conversation-- should give us an idea of the effectiveness of this new type of programming. ","This project was a total success. Attendance was outstanding, a feeling of excitement prior to the film was palpable, there was lots of laughter during the film, and the audience immediately got to their feet to give Aaron David Miller a standing ovation at the end of the film.

This will include (1) completing at least one unfinished movie on 16mm, (2) filming at least one new project, (3) focusing time towards new written materials and (4) researching new media practices and strategies for the exhibition of my work. The execution of these four concrete goals will determine if this project proposal is successful. These goals are structured around a five-month residency opportunity at Kunstverein Letschebach in Karlsruhe, Germany. While there, I will do research at ZKM Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, work on my film projects at BURSTSCRATCH in Strasbourg, and create new projects in the German Black Forest. These goals are intended for me to diversify the scope of my Fellowship, so that I am encouraged to seek out different activities and adjust my routine and practices. While they should be reasonable and attainable, I also expect to excel in one area. Perhaps, work begun with the idea of a short film could lead to a feature film, or work begun as a poem could lead to a novel or series, as examples. While I won't be disappointed if I ""only"" accomplish the set goals of this project, I am somewhat expecting and hoping for something bigger to come out of it. Beyond all else, I hope to become inspired by a particular project, and reach above and beyond one area of my goal sets, or perhaps even begin a new, unrelated project all together.","I traveled extensively in Southern Germany and Western Europe, developing strong connections with other filmmakers and curators. During that time, I exhibited work during the Global Forest Festival in St. Georgen, Germany (ongoing July-December 2017), RecRock Music Festival in Buxworth, England (Sept. 8-9, 2017), Cube Cinema in Bristol, England (Sept. 13, 2017) and my final exhibition at Kunstverein Letschebach in Karlsruhe, Germany (Sept. 23, 2017). During my travels, I shot (12) rolls of Super8mm film, which have so far been edited into three short films documenting the Global Forest project. I also have a good volume of material for additional films that will be ongoing. Some of this footage was hand-developed at BURSTSCRATCH film lab in Strasbourg, France.

I would also like to have the ability to make larger pieces having a wheel capable of it and a kiln large enough to fire larger work. While creating new work, I will extensively test and develop more colorful glazes for firing my work at cone 3. I have been firing at this temperature for 6 years and have a strong grasp of how to continue developing glazes if I have the funding for materials. The outcome of this project will be visible in the advancement and quality of my work. I have many ways of evaluating the outcome of my work. The amount of interest in my work through art shows and galleries as well as online sales is the most noticeable outcome. I also use a variety of social media to connect with thousands of other ceramic artists who critique or compliment aspects of my work. I am my own worst critic and steadily push myself to make higher quality ceramic art with every piece that I make. I plan to continue entering juried art competitions to increase my regional and national recognition in the ceramic arts. I do not currently have a scheduled exhibition for this proposed project, however I am currently applying to galleries to have solo shows or to be part of group exhibitions.","The first measurable outcome was the finished work I created with the support of this grant.

Through the goal to conduct a strategic plan, Big Stone Arts Council expects to see both a new intention or motivation to take some course of action, and an improved ability or capacity to grow the mission. By achieving our goal to support artists and arts organizations we also expect to see the following as an outcome of this project: Organizational Self Esteem -- Big Stone Arts Council will see its worth and grow its mission to promote the vitality of the Big Stone area by continually developing the region into a thriving hub of cultural-artistic expression and engagement. Board Engagement -- Board Members will be passionate about the mission and engage regularly and aim to expand membership and board diversity. Partnership Relationships -- The organization will grow capacity and create greater impact and importance in the artistic development of the Big Stone community. Investment -- Boards of Directors and community members will want to invest both resources and time to achieve long-term and sustainable goals. Accountability -- Board of directors and others involved set goals and regularly assess performance against these goals. The organization consistently provides impactful stewardship reports that illustrate to all donors and stakeholders how together they are making an impactful difference. Expected changes would be a more focused organization with the strengths that a comprehensive plan can provide. The hope that this new energy would translate into increased high-quality arts activities for our community. Through the education of our board of directors and membership and additional evaluation and assessment of our community needs, we will develop an action plan with a specific timeline. Each action will have specific individuals with the skills to accomplish the task. Each action planned will be evaluated by the organization at the monthly meeting. Participant surveys where possible will be utilized. Outcomes will be documented through participant surveys, observations, data collection, SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis and more.","Surveys, reports, open-ended questioning, SWOT analysis, and data analytics: By identifying clear strengths, weaknesses and priority areas, the BSAC has a very clear road map to increase internal efficiencies and serve more people throughout the Big Stone County Region.

This project uses the County Fair as an arts venue by encouraging the community to celebrate literary arts with a poetry reading at the museum. The goal is to encourage the community to utilize its resources, such as the Robert Bly Study, for continued support and celebration of poetry and literary arts. It also gives students an opportunity to work with a career poet who lives in Dawson. The goal is to show students that literary arts is a viable form of self-expression and that it is possible to make a career as a writer, and literary artist. Carlson hopes to transform the student's understanding of poetry. She wants students to be less afraid and intimidated by the art form, and hopes to motivate students to write poetry on their own. The intention with this project is to reveal poetry as a relevant and essential art form, that writing is an appropriate and positive form of self-expression, and that poets exist and practice in the world today. The teaching poet describes the measurement of these goals as follows: I will measure these goals in a series of two surveys. The first will be at the beginning of the residency. I'd like to find out the student's enthusiasm for poetry before the project begins. I'll collect the information to help guide my practice and planning for the residency alongside the Dawson-Boyd High School English Teacher, Sadie Solem. At the end of the project I'll repeat the same series of questions. If the students note a marked change in their replies on the survey I'll have a tool for evaluating the success of the project. I'll also work closely with Solem and ask her for input with regard to the project. I'd like to get two affirmations of things we should continue to do, and to areas that could be improved in the future. I'll also count how many attend the reading, and include a survey that asks community members how often they've visited the Robert Bly Study, and if they've been in the study before. This will give information on whether or not the project succeeds in encouraging the community to use existing literary arts resources.""""","Feedback solicited via survey at the Poetry Reading was positive. Most people had been to the Bly study but would not have visited the county museum or the studio that day. Five people surveyed had not been to the Bly Study, and came just for the event—they would have not come otherwise.

Students in the core grade 2 groups will create an interpretive dance showing the life cycle of a seed. 2. Students in grades K-4 will be exposed to the art of interpretive movement with a professional dancer for an hour or two (depending on availability of time). 3. Students will have a better understanding of interpretive movement as an art form. One of our goals with this residency is to expose primary school-age children to the art of dance. Another goal is our on-going effort to increase awareness of the value of arts for both students and adults in the world around us and in the regular classroom curriculum. Each time children are exposed to an artist who is new to them, the children learn something new from that person. In this case, they will learn some creative movement that interprets something from the biological world. Evaluation of the success of our goals will occur both during and after the experience with Karla. During the week, classroom teachers will be observing the students as they participate in sessions with Karla. At the end of the week, the core groups will participate in a performance of their work and community members will have the chance to see and respond to that performance. After the week with Karla, students in the core group will fill out a questionnaire regarding their experiences and discuss the experience with their teachers.

There are three benchmarks that we will monitor: 1) Students who are engaged - asking questions, participating in activities, and volunteering to play. This is a strong indicator that kids are interacting with the material and processing the information in ways that will be retained. 2) Improved instrumental playing - band members will be more in tune, play together better, and use proper warm-ups prior to ensemble playing. 3) Concert attendance and crowd interaction with the Copper Street Brass at the evening performance. We will evaluate the residency in three ways: 1) in-class responses from the students, 2) exit surveys after the evening performance for the audience in attendance, and 3) online surveys for school faculty/staff, parents, students, and community members upon the residency's culmination. A print and online feedback survey will measure the overall reaction to the project and to solicit ideas for improvement.

Outcomes: Students will participate in activities using musical instruments they have constructed to enhance their understanding of the physics of sound. Use scientific thinking processes to conduct investigations while observing, communicating, comparing, and organizing. Phase 1 evaluation: Using Google forms students will respond to the following sample questions: What did you learn during this unit? Is there something that confuses you? Which experiment did you like best? Phase 2 sample evaluation questions: Which instrument did you enjoy making the most? Why? Which song did you learn to play most successfully? Did you enjoy sharing your instruments with the other students in the building? Explain. Which was the most challenging instrument to make? To play? Why? Classroom teachers will also complete a reflective evaluation of the artist in residence, as well as complete an evaluation of whether student outcomes were met. Phase 3: Compile results.","Students will use the creative process to build and learn to play 3 musical instruments while deepening their understanding of related science concepts. 120 students will learn a new art form or deepen their existing skills by working directly with a professional artist.",,3090,"Other, local or private",8490,,"Kim Peddle, Annette Wick, Jason Godnai, Will Donofrio, Heather Johnson, Katherine Buytaert, Andrea Casek",0.00,"Washington Elementary School","K-12 Education","Arts and Cultural Heritage Community Arts Learning Grant",,"Whistle While You Work-on Creating Your Own Instruments!",2017-02-01,2017-07-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Robbi,Mondati,"Washington Elementary School","802 12th St",Cloquet,MN,55720,"(218) 879-3369x 5076",kpeddle@isd94.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,Carlton,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-and-cultural-heritage-community-arts-learning-grant-30,"Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist; Tammy Mattonen: visual artists, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Quentin Stille: student liaison, College Music Director - KUMD.","Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist; Kate Fitzgerald: Program Director North Shore Music Association, writer; Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor of Music at University of Minnesota-Duluth, pianist; Candace LaCosse: North House Folk School instructor, leatherwork designer and crafter; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artists, poet, and former Children’s Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artists, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Quentin Stille: student liaison, College Music Director - KUMD.",,2

All artist/teachers and volunteers record the number of children in each class, so there is an accurate accounting of the number of children and families participating in classes or who have received room to room visits.

The needs of the children are diverse and evaluations internally and with each facility are essential to the program's success.

Three goals are: 1) Challenge the students' intellect and their assumptions by engaging with difficult material 2) Expand worldview 3) Cultivate both compassion and confidence through collaboration across multiple boundaries. Students will also interact with and learn from visiting guest speakers and presenters from the Minneapolis theater scene who will both address the participants about the craft of acting and share exercises around acting, voice, and movement techniques through a workshop format. The students will see a professional Shakespeare production and enjoy a Q and A session with the actors. Finally, by hiring two professional Shakespearean teaching artists, Minnesota Shakes is able to provide the best training to the students and ensure growth and guidance. Success is defined by (1) Did the students enjoy themselves and feel proud of what they learned and shared? (2) Were they challenged theatrically and intellectually? (Most students will not seek a career in theater; however, the Shakespearean knowledge and confidence of stage acting will serve them throughout their lives.) (3) Did they grow through collaboration and benefit from the diversity and friendship of the other students? Since we also welcome a wide range of theatrical experience into the program, success for each student can be very different. As long as we encourage the type of success listed above, each student will have an opportunity to be challenged and express in a safe, non­-judgmental environment.

",,"The project protected approximately 1070 acres of fish, game, migratory bird, and forest habitat along the Crow Wing and Mississippi River corridors via 14 permanent conservation easements. 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.

",,"The Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Complex Phase VI program acquired 69 acres of high-quality wetland, prairie, remnant Big Woods forest, and shoreline habitat for fish, game and wildlife in the Cannon River Watershed. The protection and creation/expansion of two large complexes (Gray Fox WMA and Murphy WMA) provides new opportunities for public hunting, fishing, and wildlife observation. The Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Complex Phase VI program was designed to address the following problems: degradation and loss of quality and diversity of habitat in the prairie section of the State, degradation of water quality in the Cannon River Watershed; and lack of available public lands for hunting and angling opportunities, especially within an hour's drive for over half of the state's population. The Phase VI program is a part of a multi-year conservation effort, focusing on the Cannon River Watershed, that includes acquisition, protection, and restoration of core parcels of land that will contribute to a large complex of restored prairies, grasslands, wetlands, lakeshore, and river shoreline. The Phase VI acquisitions were prioritized toward protecting existing large wetland/upland complexes and rare communities (Big Woods forest, oak savanna, tamarack swamp). In addition, landowner willingness to sell and the threat of conversion were also taken into consideration. Protection of these lands provides critical habitat for game species, including migratory waterfowl (mallards, canvasback, wood ducks, hooded mergansers, pintails, lesser scaup), upland birds (dove, turkey, pheasant, and woodcock), white tail deer, and fish (northern pike, black crappies, bluegills, bullheads and walleye). Protection will also provide access for a diversity of recreational experiences including duck, pheasant, turkey and deer hunting, lake fishing, and wildlife observation. In addition, restoration work conducted by the MN DNR has been focused on the degraded portions of the lands acquired and has included restoration of agricultural fields near wetlands and lakes back to native habitat. Specifically, two acquisitions were completed with Phase VI funding: 1. Gray Fox WMA - Rice County: The Trust for Public Land acquired the Gray Fox WMA property on October 19, 2018 and conveyed the 78 acre property to the DNR on April 23, 2019 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. This property has rolling topography of wetland and grassland habitat located in the upper reaches of the Cannon River Watershed just west of Shields Lake (the headwaters of the Cannon River). It has great scenic views and natural beauty, and it will provide much needed public access for dispersed wildlife-based recreation including hiking, hunting, trapping, bird-watching, and general nature observation. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $406,000 using $69,021 of the Cannon River Phase VI acquisition funds (ML2016 OHF; allocated acreage 13), and also $336,979 from Cannon River Phase V (ML2015 OHF; allocated acreage 65). 2. Murphy WMA Addition - Le Sueur County: The Trust for Public Land acquired and conveyed 72 acres to the MN DNR on August 16, 2019 to be managed as an addition to the Murphy Wildlife Management Area. Located directly on the Cannon River just north of Waterville, this acquisition connects the two units of Murphy WMA, squares up boundaries, and provides improved public access for quality outdoor recreation and hunting opportunities within an hour’s drive of the Twin Cities. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $375,000 using $292,407 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase VI (ML 2016 OHF; allocated acreage 56), and also $82,593 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase VII (ML 2017 OHF; allocated acreage 16).

The idea of my work/wall-hangings being 2D and then for the work to spill out into a visual dance with animation and changing patterns is exciting. My intent is for people to be inspired from my work, color, pattern making and designs. I hope for the audience to find correlations from inspiration I gather during my trip to Finland, bringing a rich understanding of modern Nordic aesthetic to The Nordic Center in Duluth. I will be visiting the Marimekko Textile factory whose designs have been a muse for me since I was a teenager. I believe that this visit will be pivotal for new concepts within my textiles and outreach for all who view the exhibition. For the exhibition to be well attended, for the work to speak to the participants/attendees, for me to have an understanding of the animation process and how to transform my work within this technology will be exciting. I will be creating hand stenciled wall-hangings that will greet the viewers. At the same time, they will see the work transformed by projections on the ceiling and the back wall. This will bring the work to life in a sense with animation from the originally works at the start of the exhibit. I hope to create excitement and open up possibilities on ways that 2D work can be transformed. If I inspire and excite the audience I know that my goal will be achieved. We will seek other venues for this exhibition, my textile work and outreach for interweaving Nordic design within our community and beyond.

To challenge myself as a collage artist I am proposing to create triptych (3 - 16"" x 20"" panels) surrounded by 3 - 20"" x 24"" paintings on each side. I intend to include one painting made up of 15 - 6 x6 small works arranged together. The triptych will allow me to explore moving the images, shapes and colors from one panel to the next. I am also planning to airbrush components so rather than relying on random images and found paper I can create the exact color fragments that will be needed for this project. I have therefore included in the budget equipment and materials needed to complete the project as proposed. I think people react to my collages because of my love and use of color and the mystery of the images that I include in unusual ways. If I have succeeded the viewer should not have to work to seek a sensory experience, but should be drawn into the work. The intention of the work is a visual experience and, like the words of a poem or song, should leave you with an image and emotion. I propose to have a guest book that will allow for comments and discussion of the finished work.

At the end of this phase, I will have a multi-channel soundscape composed and mapped to a spatial environment for testing / tuning.

This networked, polyphonic environment will feel orchestral ::: like an ecosystem evolving through time ::: a system with interconnected yet independent parts ::: a chance-infused choreography. I will complete the following milestones ::: 1. February - Compose, record, mix and map sound to a 360-degree, physical environment. 2. March - Code abstract animations that are responsive to input from each other and from the simple act of touch via a mobile interface. These will be rendered live via a web browser that listens for input through its internet connection to a central server. 3. April - Create a physical space for testing and use it to solicit feedback from at least 6 artist peers. Initiate a studio visit from curatorial staff at the Tweed. 4. May - Leverage documentation of the prototype to begin outreach about the Fall show. Summarize results and create a blueprint and work plan for the larger space.

This process helps me hone my work and gives me a chance to evaluate lessons learned from my experiments.","I accomplished the following milestones from my original proposal: 1. Composed, recorded, mixed and mapped sound to a 360-degree, physical environment. 2. Coded abstract animations that are responsive to input from each other and from the simple act of touch via a mobile interface. 3. Created a physical space for testing and used it to solicit feedback from at least 6 artist peers. Initiated a studio visit from curatorial staff at the Tweed. 4. Leveraged documentation of the prototype to begin outreach about the Fall show. Summarized results and created a blueprint and work plan for the larger space. In the end I was able to host a group of art educators from the region, 18 artist peers (some numerous times during the process), two arts critics, two outside curators and numerous members of the general public. The resultant feedback was invaluable to me as I developed and tested aspects of the exhibit. I used the prototype to manifest ideas for Tweed staff in a way that was quite helpful for our discussions and in developing the blueprints for the final work.

My desire to make work stems from my love of landscape and my immersion into it. The work I create is reflective of both of these things. My goals for this Artist Residency at Cedar Point Biological Station and Wind River Range Research are: 1) Explore/examine two ""new"" landscapes to develop a new body of work centered on these places. 2) Spend time drawing and photographing the sites I visit for in-studio source material that I can use to further refine the artistic quality of my animations and bring the color and abstraction of sky into my animations. 3) Meet with researchers studying the same landscape but through a different lens so that a new body of work can be informed by multiple ways of knowing. 4) Develop communication and connections with those researchers that can continue into the future and bring forth future projects. 5) Put together an exhibition of the field drawings this September in Laramie. I spend considerable time evaluating opportunities. As a working artist I must continually leverage opportunity with feasibility and cost. In thinking about these two opportunities, I have been able to identify what is possible as well as beneficial to my work, and know that I can do them. Taking the time to immerse in landscape and draw and photograph will provide rich source material; being in a social environment of the biological station will give opportunity to interact with the other researchers. All of it will provide the necessary source and most importantly inspiration for new work. I can measure these goals by: 1) Returning home with a book full of notes and field drawings from the landscapes I study. 2) Returning home with several hundred photographs that will provide additional source information for my studio drawings. 3) Keeping a journal of the interactions and conversations I have with the scientist and researchers I will meet there. 4) Getting contact information from everyone I interact with to initiate communication upon returning home. 5) Leaving drawings for Colleen to put into a September Laramie exhibition.","I explored through field study two ""new"" landscapes (Ogallala, Nebraska and the Paradise Basin near Fort Washakie, Wyoming) from which I will create of a new body of artwork - I returned to Badlands National Park, the site of my long-standing project, ""site: Sage Creek"", and continued field studies of more terrain there - I filled two drawing sketch books with land studies from these locations - I took over 1000 photos and recorded video in these sites - I made a connection with Jon Garbisch, Geologist and Director of Cedar Point Biological station - I made a connection with an artist and naturalist from Omaha, Nebraska - I learned how to do a transect of a GPS point and count plants for Colleen Friday's Plant inventory -- helpful and informative to my grassland drawings - I made new color paintings while at Cedar Point -- my hand-drawn work has been almost entirely black and white for ten years.",,1871,"Other, local or private",3600,,,,"Catherine F.

Too many scripts for young audiences condescend to children. They think kids can't handle sadness, or frightening situations, or that everything has to be funny even if it doesn't fit with the story. I disagree with those points on every level. Kids are SMART and have brave, beautiful hearts. I won't need to make the pirates silly, bumbling creatures. Long John Silver is a scary, manipulative man. Frankly, he's a man kids might meet someday in real life - at first he's a great friend to young Jim Hawkins, but he quickly proves dangerous. Without trying to be an after-school special, I absolutely want to expose children in the audience to the realest people possible. Nothing gratuitous, nothing that isn't in the original novel. I don't think these classics would have survived so long if they weren't so real. Allowing myself to dedicate an extended period of time to this project will help to make me a better writer. The quality of my adaptation of ""Treasure Island' can be judged in several ways. First, I will use my own gut reaction. How do I feel hearing the actors say my words out loud? Am I mortified during the performances? Am I excited to have audiences see my show? An artist knows when his or her work has value! Second, this will be used for live performances so I'll be able to observe the audience's reactions. And finally, I can ask the producing company, Wise Fool Shakespeare, for feedback.

Our conservation staff have used Legacy funds to augment other sources of funding (including private donors and the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund) for field conservation projects addressing threats and recovery options for:   Zoo Education Programs The Minnesota Zoo’s education department has expanded programs to enhance participants’ knowledge and appreciation of Minnesota’s natural heritage. These programs and experiences are designed to “connect” participants to the natural world, fostering a lifelong conservation ethic for the wild life and wild places of our State.

At the heart of these reports is a suite of quantifiable performance measures.MDA's Clean Water Research Program is reporting on performance measure OPM12: Percent of research projects meeting research efficiency goals.This performance measure was developed using guidelines from the National Academies of Sciences 2008 report Evaluating Research Efficiency in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.Each individual research project has specific deliverables.According to the National Academies' framework projects are evaluated according to two main criteria:1) Investment efficiency: is the agency making investments in the right projects? Investment efficiency is best evaluated by an independent, expert review panel that uses predominantly qualitative metrics to evaluate the program. The charge of the review panel is to determine if the research supported is relevant, of the highest quality, effective and efficient.Relevance is a measure of how well research supports the mission or purpose of the Clean Water Fund, which is to protect, enhance and restore lakes, rivers, streams, groundwater and drinking water in Minnesota.Quality refers to how research contributes to our understanding and knowledge of water resources in Minnesota. The review panel will evaluate the soundness, accuracy, novelty and reproducibility of the research projects.Effectiveness refers to the usability of research results by various stakeholders such as TMDL and other technical field staff, conservation professionals, and policy-makers.Efficiency refers to the ability to achieve quality, relevance, and effectiveness while minimizing resources devoted to the project in terms of time and money The review panel can also identify emerging issues and determine their place in research priorities. 2) Process efficiency: are the research investments being managed well?Process efficiency uses quantitative measures to track dollars and hours devoted to a project. Process efficiency refers to inputs, outputs, and intermediate outcomes of a research project and overall program.Inputs include agency resources such as funding, facilities, and staff that support research.Outputs are products delivered by a research project such as conclusions, reports, published papers, monitoring data and new techniques developed.Intermediate outcomes provide the review panel tangible metrics of evaluation. Examples of intermediate outcomes may include an improved body of knowledge available for decision-making, and newly developed tools and models. Tracking Outreach and EducationNumber of outreach activities (presentations, workshops, field days, and other events)Number of educational events (presentations or outreach to K-12 students or teachers, undergraduate science classes, non-science majors, grad students, etc)Number of peer-reviewed publications ",,,,,949783,9769,,"1 ","Funding is awarded to projects selected by the evaluation committee.

A Technical Advisory Committee, comprised of subject matter experts, provides input on projects to ensure they produce relevant and useful information for a diverse group of stakeholders.   ","Goals of the Research Program Identify underlying processes that affect water quality Evaluate the effectiveness of agricultural Best Management Practices (BMPs) Develop technologies to target BMPs to critical areas of the landscape  Research priorities are developed with input from multiple stakeholders including agricultural groups, state agencies, and researchers.   ","Supported 40 research projects (8 active projects, 32 completed) 16 of the supported research projects evaluate practices to reduce nitrate losses. Practices include emerging technologies such as nitrification inhibitors and optical sensing tools, perennial and vegetative cover for water quality benefits or treatment of agricultural drainage systems. 12 different organizations have been awarded research contracts through the program Researchers have used initial results from CWF supported research to leverage over $10 million of additional research funding.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","Achieved: The Director, Board members and Staff are observed to use hard-copy printed PastPerfect reports in a 3-ring binder to inform themselves, browse and do lookups, perform research and answer questions from visitors and other users of the collections. These reports are sorted in various ways to make searching for information easy: by donor, by title, by author, by condition and by bookcase and shelf. Staff is observed to easily find and find and retrieve books in the bookcases and shelves inventoried during this project. The 3-ring binder is also accessible for visitors to browse, do research and use as a finding aid. We are in the process of installing PDFs of the most recent PastPerfect reports on staff computers. Several staff members use the PastPerfect program on the laptop to search for information about the museum's collections which now includes the 1064 books inventoried during this phase. Exceeded: Staff are observed to follow correct book handling procedures. Exceeded: Use and access for users has increased. The PastPerfect catalog contains detailed information for a total today of 1,729 books in our Library. 1064 books and other library materials were inventoried during this phase of the project. Access to this information is available through printed PastPerfect reports, PDF formatted PastPerfect reports installed on staff computers, direct PP database search, query and browse functions. The museum has a Virtual Exhibition web page at www.kashubwinona.com which contains a list of our library holdings by title and author. We routinely spotlight library materials on the museum's Facebook page, which is followed by 310 people around the world. Locating a particular title, author, or location is so easy to do now for inventoried books. Exceeded: During this phase we documented the condition of 1064 inventoried books on BC10-16, BC17 shelf 1, BC17 shelf 4, BC19 shelf 1, BC20 shelf 1, and BC21 shelf 2. We have images of each book and its condition, and have noted which books need a book box or other protection. We will use this information to write a grant for archival rehousing materials.

We had a special day in Oct. when 4 of us could get together and take what they wove off the looms. (See photos). I prepared and taught 6 classes. There were 25 students total. The quality of the weaving and the amount of weaving each student did indicated very successful results from each student. They learned to warp (thread looms with patterns) and weave different typical Scandinavian designs with traditional Rosepath patterns. (See photos attached.)

We measure our success by our returning audience members, who follow our seasons regularly, as well as the growing number of new listeners, reflected in our guest book.

Additionally, we connect to our audience through talking about the pieces on our programs during the concerts.

This is a stand alone program but depends on the support and technical advice of local land managers, habitat and acquisition specialists, and support staff. Grant activities include: enhancement, restoration, and protection of forests, wetlands, prairies, and habitat for fish, game, and wildlife. A 10% match from non-state sources is required for all grants. CPL staff develop a Request for Proposal and Program Manual incorporating LSOHC priorities, solicit applications, work with applicants to submit scorable applications, oversee grant selection, prepare/execute grant documents, review expenditure documentation, ensure financial integrity, make payments, monitor grant work, assist recipients with closing out agreements, and prepare required reports. CPL staff complies with the Department of Administration- Office of Grants Management policies. Application process: A Request for Proposal/Program Manual was posted on the CPL website in August 2016. Document contains all grant program information. Applications are submitted on the online grant application system. Applicants use the mapping tool in the application to map project sites. Applications are accepted until September 2016 for round 1 of all grant cycles. Expedited Conservation Project (ECP) applications and applications for less than $25,000 have a shorter application form. The application system accepts ECP applications until funding runs out, but is designed for 5 rounds of applications. Traditional (statewide) applications were accepted once, Metro applications were accepted twice, and ECP applications were accepted one time. Grant Selection Process: CPL Grant Program Staff review applications for completeness. Technical Review Committees, selected by the Commissioner of Natural Resources, evaluate applications based on criteria below. A final score is given to all applications. Committees include representatives from the DNR, BWSR, UMN, USFWS, USFS, counties, and other local government and non-profit organizations. A final ranking committee of Directors of the DNR Divisions of Fish and Wildlife, Ecological Resources/Waters, and Forestry consider the technical review committee, division and regional DNR comments, and recommend projects and funding to the Commissioner. ECP grants are reviewed by CPL staff, using criteria established for each type of project, and make recommendations. Division of Fish and Wildlife leadership make final decisions. CPL Grant Program Staff work with grantees to complete financial reviews, grant agreements, and other paperwork. Work may not begin until grant contract is executed. Applications are evaluated on these criteria: Amount of habitat restored, enhanced, or protected Local Support Degree of collaboration Urgency Multiple benefits Consistency with current conservation science Adjacent to protected lands Full funding of project Budget/cost effectiveness Public access for hunting and fishing Use of native plant materials Applicants' capacity to successfully complete and sustain work Project Reviews and Reporting: Grantees submit annual accomplishment reports on forms provided by CPL staff, based on LSOHC report forms. Reports account for the use of grant and match funds, and outcomes in measures of wetlands, prairies, forests, and fish, game, and wildlife habitat restored, enhanced, and protected. The report must include an evaluation of these results. A final report is required by all grantees 30 days after project completion. CPL Administration Budget: Grant administration costs total $112,200, include salary/fringe for grants staff, direct and necessary costs, travel, supplies, and expenses. An Internal Service Level Agreement (SLA) is developed with MNIT to update/manage the online grant application system. DNR Land Acquisition Costs: Applicants are required to budget for DNR Land Acquisition costs that are necessary to support the land acquisition process for parcels to be conveyed to the DNR. These costs are billed to awarded grants on a professional services basis. DNR Technical Support: The Division of Fish and Wildlife provides ongoing technical guidance, helping applicants prepare grant proposals and meet requirements for working on state lands. Project development and oversight is provided by area managers and additional guidance is provided for land acquisitions. Grantee Payment: Grantees are paid on reimbursement basis, meaning payment is made to the grantee after work has been performed or materials purchased, but before the vendor is paid by the grantee. Grantees provide proof that work is completed or a purchase made to receive payment. Proof that the vendor was paid must be submitted to CPL staff before additional grant payments are made. Payment advances may be made for acquisitions with a signed purchase agreement. Partial payments are allowed. Funds are built into grants for required Legacy logo signage and forms of acknowledgement/notification including, but not limited to, local news advertisements announcing completion of grantees projects.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","The immediate outcome stated in our project proposal was the creation of a guiding document/collections management plan that would address assessment, categorization, use and accessibility, storage and environmental considerations, cataloguing, and programming opportunities. This target was achieved through the development of a collections management plan for the H/G Archive by Ms. Shaw. The collections management plan and assessment were performed concurrently with a series of inventories, collection evaluations, and rehousing projects by Ms. Shaw. This comprehensive assessment took place between October 2016 and August 2017 and included daily and weekly visits to the Archive for evaluation of the collection and the archival space, as well as meetings with MCBA director, Jeff Rathermel and MCBA staff. Ms. Shaw examined materials in various formats and current storage practices of these materials. This process allowed a deeper understanding of collections strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement, positioning MCBA to undertake a formal inventory. This work could not have been achieved without the expertise and commitment of Ms. Shaw. Her role ensured that our proposed targets were achieved and exceeded. Ms. Shaw provided additional oversight to a team of interns from St. Catherine University's student chapter of the Society of American Archivists. This team contributed over 85 volunteer hours of support to the H/G Archive. While MCBA is not quite ready to formally offer a graduate-level internship through St. Kate's, relationships have been forged with faculty members and steps are in place to work with an Advanced Cataloging course through the university this fall 2017. MCBA seeks to cultivate this partnership so that library science students may supplement their classroom learning experience and gain hands-on professional experience in a unique library and archive setting. Ms. Sophia Kiheri, MLIS, also provided pro bono support throughout the duration of the project, and contributed a great deal to the overall success of this project.",,,"Available upon request.

Use of the house as a rental for holiday events has doubled over last year. Two new volunteers have been recruited to work at the Dinehart House in various capacities. One served as a greeter for the Holiday Open House and enjoyed it so much she verbalized excitement about adding the house to her regular volunteering.

The long-term expected impact was written as, :A culture of preservation preparedness among our county:s organizations.: The partners who took part in this project are adding an item to their bylaws, if it wasn:t already, that their Disaster Preparedness Plan and Disaster Supply Kit will be reviewed annually and that the Disaster Response Team Duties will also be reviewed and reassigned around that same time.

The training led by the Midwest Art Conservation Center cost approximately $4,000; by participating as a group instead of individually, they saved a little more than $8,000.

A list of proposed land restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan.",,"Prairie habitats once covered one-third of the state but presently less than 2% remain. Native prairie, other grasslands that provides habitat for wildlife, and wetlands are key components of functional prairie landscapes that have the capacity to adapt to changing environmental conditions. While these appropriation only added 2,085 acres of grassland acres to the state through restoration, these funds enhanced a much larger area. Put in another fashion, we restored and enhanced 69.5 square miles with these funds. That's an area 8.3 by 8.3 miles in area. None of this work was targeted at a specific species of wildlife. We used that approach that diverse productive habitats benefit a wide variety of both game and non-game wildlife species as well as any threatened or endangered species. In our restorations, we use very diverse seed mixes. This is obviously beneficial for pollinators. However, all those insects also create a food base for a large number of wildlife species. The structural diversity all those plant species create in the habitat allow every species to find an ideal niche in the grass as well as accomodates different life history stages of wildlife.","A total of 44,506 acres were affected: 2,081 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 42,425 in Enhance.",,,3762900,172000,,7.11,DNR,"State Government","We restored 2,081 acres of grassland and enhanced 42,425 acres of grassland for a total of 44,506 acres of wildlife habitat across 329 sites with these funds.","We select projects using a number of criteria and reviews to make sure the DNR was spending these funds in the best and most productive ways. We can summarize our results in the following table. Project Type Acres # Sites Grassland Restoration 2,085 63 Prescribed Fire 36,896 159 Woody removal 4,461 60 interseed / diversity enhancement 500 27 Conservation grazing infrastructure 120 1 Prescribed Browsing-woody control (goats) 299 9 Herbaceous Invasive Control 145 10 Sum 44,506 329 This appropriation involved the Roving Crews. These Crews allow the DNR to be very flexible. While they have a list of projects to work on, they can also respond fairly quickly if there's an enhancement opportunity shows up. For instance, a short dry period in a part of the state may allow them to conduct a late summer prescribed fire which was not in any of the original work plans. Roving Crews have begun experimenting with different burn seasons. Typically, we burn in the spring before the nesting season. However, this can stimulate the warm-season grasses and begin to crowd out forbs, lowering plant diversity. Burning in the late summer, after birds have fledged but with enough time for some late summer regrowth, has shown to increase both plant diversity as well as structural diversity in the habitat. Just as important, it can knock back the dominant grasses such as big bluestem and Indian grass just enough for forbs to express themselves the following year. Although 44,506 acres appears to be a large number, we feel the actual acres benefitted may be much larger. We know nest predation of grassland birds is higher near woody vegetation and some birds just won't nest near woody veg. By removing trees, we are impacting both the footprint of where those trees were but also the surrounding grassland, up to a half mile from the project, where nest success should now be higher. We installed grazing infrastructure on one site and used goats to browse undesirable and invasive woody plants. This will accomplish two goals. FIrst, we will get good habitat work on our public lands. Second, its a way to further develop a working lands approach to land management and incorporate conservation work into the state's agricultural economy. I have personally visited a number of public lands grazing sites in western Minnesota and have always been impressed with what I've seen. Although grazing is a summer activity, I've flushed a number of birds, both pheasants and songbirds, from these areas in the fall. Often the biggest benefit to grazing comes in the first couple years after grazing as the habitat is regrowing. Although there is still much to learn, we have learned a lot in recent years about restoration techniques. We still use several methods for restoring prairie and there's probably no one perfect way of doing it. It's very clear to someone when they are walking through a recent restoration and an older restoration. Even if they can't identify every plant, the diversity people see is striking. The DNR has traditionally focused on game species such as pheasants. However, there is more and more interest in pollinators and biodiversity. Fortunately, just about every study out there shows that management and restoration for pollinators and songbirds often creates the best habitat for game species. Diverse, healthy, productive habitat is good for a wide range of species. These projects can also increase the amount of carbon absorbed and stored by the plants and soils on these sites. As we continue to use these funds, costs for projects will probably increase. In the early years of these funds, we completed a number of simpler or easier projects, the low-hanging fruit. Now we are left with the larger and more challenging projects. While they are good habitat projects, they will probably increase in costs over time. In our budget table, we prorated our budget for individual projects by the acres accomplished. Staff funding was combined into one value.

Projects are prioritized based on ecological benefit, urgency, feasibility, and stakeholder support. ",,"Lake Carlos Dam Modification During the winter and spring of 2021, the Lake Carlos Dam was replaced with a rock arch-shaped rapids to restore upstream fish passage. We expect that migratory species from Lake Carlos and upstream Lake Le Homme Dieu will benefit from improved access to 121 miles of river that could be used for spawning and rearing habitat. Rare mussel species such as creek heelsplitter and black sandshell are found downstream of the outlet, and may also find suitable habitat in tributary streams to Lake Carlos. The rock arch rapids structure is located within Lake Carlos State Park, and will provide an opportunity to educate the public on the importance of lake and stream connectivity. Cottonwood Dam Modifications – Soldier’s and Sailor’s Park, Kuhar and Sanborn Golf Course Dams This project was originally funded to provide fish passage at three dams by modifying the dams to rock arch rapids structures. However during the course of project development, at two of the dam sites, the grantee opted to install riffles along the river corridor to slowly step the river down and to provide more habitat than originally anticipated. Two of the dam sites now have 6-7 riffles and deep pool associated with those riffles. Fish use these pools as is evident by the fishermen seen at various riffles. Fish have also been seen passing through the riffles to get upstream. Construction of this project started in February of 2020; that spring construction was put on hold due to high flows and the COVID pandemic. However, as the flows were rising the contractor continued to work. This proved to be an issue when the contractor was unable to finish installing that riffle. As a result, the unfinished structure caused some significant erosion; this lead to additional work at that riffle site for the contractor once flows receded. For the most part this project was constructed during the COVID pandemic which significantly limited the availability of Department oversight during construction. Additional oversight by the Department would have been beneficial in implementation and would likely have avoided the contractor working in rising flows. Construction of the projects were finished in fall of 2020. Overall the project accomplished the goals of fish passage and has the added benefit of additional habitat along the river corridor. Prairie/Lizzie Dam Modifications The Prairie Lake and Lizzie Lake dam outlets were modified to rock arch rapids to improve fish passage. Construction finished in summer of 2019 and reconnected 2 consecutive dams, which when combined reconnected 20 stream miles. Recently, there has been some momentum in the Otter Tail watershed to improve fish passage. Because of this support, the timeline went really quickly for Lizzie and Prairie and the construction was very efficient. This was due, in part, to local DNR, the consultant and contractors’ experience working on prior dam modifications. The Prairie Dam was unique in that we needed to do the modification on both sides of the road/bridge. Since construction was completed the vegetation has reestablished and fish have been seen using the rapids.P a g e 3 | 10 Hallock Dam Modification Construction on the Hallock dam finished spring of 2021. This project has a unique river setting with the dam immediately upstream of a meander bend and an incised reach of stream. This led to a unique design of modifying the dam by installing two sections of rock arch rapids upstream and downstream of the meander. There were also some riffles downstream of the rapids to partially address the incision and provide additional habitat. Fish passage was achieved at the site by modifying the dam into a rock arch rapids; channel catfish movement has already occurred and a variety of sizes were sampled earlier in the summer. Due to the drought this year, the vegetation has been struggling to get established. The project partner (City of Hallock) has responded by setting up a pump and watering the newly seeded area. Drywood Creek Dam Removal and Channel Restoration The Drywood Creek project removed the dam and restored the stream to a stable dimension, pattern and profile. Toe-wood sod mat was used to protect the banks while vegetation establishes and 2 rock riffles were installed to account for the grade change from the dam. After construction was finished, it was determine that one of the riffles was built too narrow and not according to plan specifications. Construction of this project was consistently up against high flows; which is likely why it wasn’t clear that the riffle didn’t meet specifications. DNR funding was used to adjust the riffle to the correct width. Coolridge Creek Restoration Construction for the Coolridge Creek restoration project was completed in May 2019. The project removed 18 culverts from the stream channel and three additional culverts from side channels. Removing the culverts restored 1,800 feet of stream channel. Shell River Culvert Replacement Three culverts on the Shell River were replaced in fall 2020. The previously undersized culverts were replaced with larger culverts to restore fish passage and improve stream conditions. One culvert replacement was funded through ML 18 and two replacements were funded through ML 16. Stream habitat work for this appropriation and other LSOHC-funded projects from other appropriations was aided by funding for a stream restoration coordinator and interns. Here are some of the highlighted work of these positions using funding from this appropriation: • Project development and public outreach. • Management of project funding. • Analyze and prioritize culverts for replacement – Buffalo River, Cottonwood River and Otter Tail River watersheds. • Annual updates of the Stream Restoration Priority List • Geomorphic monitoring of Buffalo River and Lake Shady • Collected culvert data in Lake Pepin and Chippewa watersheds. • Assisted with geomorphic monitoring of stream restoration projects.

The Silvernale site stands out as one of the most significant pre-contact Native American sites in the state. Consisting of a large village and some 500 burial mounds, the site was an important gathering place for many Native American groups throughout the Great Plains area between the 11th and 14th centuries CE. The Science Museum acquired the Silvernale collection in 2001. It had never been properly inventoried, nor had all of the artifacts been washed after they were unearthed. This project remedied this, as well as providing up-to-standard storage for the collection. This portion of the materials excavated from the Silvernale site is especially significant because the area that it comes from has since been built over--these are the only extant artifacts from the northern part of the village.

Finally, upgrading the equipment to LED lighting truly brings us into the 21st Century from a lighting perspective and the lifespan of LED lighting is expected at 50,000 hours, meaning that for our facility, it will last for many generations to come. LED lighting is also more energy efficient, allowing for the facility to save money in that way. Keeping the theater facility current. We will be able to measure whether there are less hours in setting lights for shows after the new lights are put in. We will also be able to measure how often we are able to have higher quality shows that we haven't been able to bring in the past, due to being able to offer the lighting they need. The Friends of the Auditorium will be able to evaluate the cost savings for the Friends at their programmed events at Memorial Auditorium Performing Arts Center. The results will assist the Friends in making the decisions about increased future performances at Memorial Auditorium Performing Arts Center. The less expense involved in performances, the more performances the Friends of the Auditorium will be able to produce at Memorial Auditorium Performing Arts Center. Of course, the more performances, the greater the outreach to more audiences. A survey will be given to those using the new lighting, in order to evaluate their opinion about the lighting.","We were able to measure that there have been less hours in setting lights for shows now that the new lights have been installed.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","The short term/ongoing project created as a result of this grant is an environmental monitoring system for the Minnesota Masonic Historical Society & Museum. This target was achieved by purchasing and regularly using data loggers. Doing so has resulted in a verifiable log of environmental conditions and the creation of procedures for using, offloading, tracking, and storing data loggers and their readings. The standards the historical society is trying to achieve are, mainly, a comfortable, sound environment with moderate light levels and little to no fluctuations in temperature and relative humidity (guidelines espoused by the National Park Service, Image Permanence Institute, etc.). Using data loggers is helping the historical society achieve these goals: tracking and offloading loggers has become a standard component of the organization's preservation procedures and has already led to changes/corrections in spaces where collections are stored and displayed (lights are now turned off, one programmable thermostat is now set at a constant temperature, humidifiers are being used, etc.).

Our medium term goal was to prepare for the opening. We were slightly delayed due to major transitions in staff, however the exhibition opened in early May with a series of events. A VIP event with in-depth tours with historian Dan Hoisington, followed by a members preview, and finally the public opening, complete with performances with Molly Hennig who sang WWI era songs and the Comrades of Valor Color Guard. The long-term goal is continued use of the exhibit, and indeed, through a variety of initiatives, visitorship of the exhibit is flourishing, with local visitors and tourists alike coming specifically to the museum to experience the exhibit. In fact, over 500 school kids toured the museum this spring to see the new exhibit. We are also partnering with a variety of organizations to increase awareness of Brown County and World War I, including the New Ulm Public Library, the New Ulm Film Society, Turner Hall, Springfield Historical Society, and community members to offer a wide-range of WWI themed programs. We are planning more for 2018 to sustain momentum and increase interest. Media coverage and visitor feedback has been very positive. Visitors are impressed by the overall display, enjoy viewing slides on a stereoscope and listening to music in the Home Front, watching historic interviews on a interactive kiosk, and viewing WWI trench footage through a periscope in a mock trench. We also have a letter writing station so guests can draft letters to public officials about the First Amendment, and many guests, including children have been writing letters.

The Brown County Historical Society created an exhibit, ""Loyalty and Dissent: Brown County and World War I"" on the second floor of their museum to illustrate and interpret the war experience of 1917 and 1918 as it pertained to Brown County. America's entry into World War I led to one of our nation's greatest tests of the First Amendment and its limits, set in a climate of suspicion about the loyalty of those who dissented from U.S. involvement in what they saw as a European conflict. In Brown County, these were not academic questions found in old, dusty law books. They affected the lives of every citizen as they made decisions about what those fundamental rights meant in everyday life. In addition, many young men, and several women, went on to serve their country on the battlefields of France and Belgium, some never returning home.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","The application identified three short-term impacts, one intermediate impact, and one long-term impact. The short-term impacts were framed as goals to be accomplished within the grant period. These were exceeded or achieved, and detailed comments are below. The intermediate and long-term impacts are targets to be achieved after the conclusion of the project. Given our success in achieving our short-term goals, we anticipate meeting our intermediate and long-term targets as well. Results were achieved/exceeded because the contractors working on the project were highly-experienced and talented. Bakken staff took considerable care to choose this contract staff. The project was a staff priority, and is part of a larger project that is an institutional priority. Finally, a $10,000 MHCH grant that preceded this one provided direction and established a strong basis for completing the work. Comments regarding short-term impacts and progress indicators: 1. Learn about three new directions for research through the survey of historical archives, repositories and resources. This was exceeded. The researcher uncovered a number of fascinating and relevant narratives. Several of these were pursued and resulted in interesting interviews. Others could be pursued at a later date. 2. Learn key historical stories of innovation that took place in Minnesota's Medical Alley that are supported by images, artifacts and video footage, indicated by the identification of historical resources to include in at least two exhibition components. This was achieved, and as development on the broader ""Inventing for Health"" project continues, we may find that it was exceeded. As noted above artifacts and stories acquired through this project will be used in a small ""prologue"" exhibit to open spring of 2018. Video interviews will be used in a larger exhibition, and will be supported through additional narratives, archival resources and objects collected or identified through the project. 3.

Tullibee populations are the ""canary in the coal mine"" for three significant threats to Minnesota's sport fisheries: shoreland development, watershed health and climate warming. Deep, cold water lakes with high quality, well-oxygenated waters and natural, undisturbed land cover along the shorelines and within their watersheds will have the best chance to sustain tullibee populations in the face of these threats and will serve as a ""refuge"" for the tullibee if annual temperatures increase. Minnesota DNR Fisheries Research scientists studied tullibee lakes and designated 68 lakes in Minnesota as primary ""refuge lakes"" for tullibee that need protection. Forty-eight of these lakes and their minor watersheds are located in Crow Wing, Aitkin, Cass and Hubbard counties. These lakes are premier recreational and sport fishery lakes. Fisheries research has shown that healthy watersheds with intact forest are fundamental to good fish habitat. The MN DNR Fisheries Habitat Plan states near shore fish habitat affected by shoreland disturbance can impact fisheries. Maintaining good water quality is critical to sustaining tullibees as determined by the water's oxygen level and nutrient content. Lakeshore development decreases a lakes ability to function as a healthy ecosystem for sport fish and their forage, due to increased runoff, but also through physical alternation by lakeshore owners.","A total of 630 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 29 in Fee Title, 601 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",965000,"Landowner Donation and Local Fundrasing and Landowner Donation and local fundraising",1220600,39700,,"0.53 ","Leech Lake Area Watershed Foundation and Minnesota Land Trust","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Project partners Northern Water Land Trust (NWLT) and Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) successfully concluded this grant, protecting a combined total of 630 acres (105% of goal) and 25,278 feet of shoreline (188% of goal), while providing $965,000 in leverage to the grant (170% of goal). NWLT purchased the 29-acre Woman Lake Aquatic Management Area in fee and conveyed to the Minnesota DNR. The parcel protects 1,140 feet of shoreline on Broadwater Bay. The Minnesota Land Trust completed four conservation easement projects under this appropriation, protecting a total of 601 acres and 24,854 feet of shoreline.","A recent survey of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reported 32 percent of Minnesotans participated in sport fishing, contributing $2.4 billion to the state economy in 2011. Sport fishing is a powerful economic engine in Minnesota and important to its residents' quality of life. Sustaining a strong angling heritage revolves largely around protecting fisheries habitat necessary for healthy sport fish populations in the near- and long-term future with resurging shoreland development pressures and looming climate changes. This project focused on fisheries habitat protection on lakes that have the best biological integrity for a sustained sport fishery in light of these changes. These lakes are known collectively as ""tullibee refuge lakes."" Tullibee (aka cisco) is the preferred forage fish for walleye, northern pike, muskellunge, and lake trout. They require cold, well-oxygenated waters - a condition most common in lakes with deep water and healthy watersheds. Tullibee populations are the ""canary in the coalmine"" for three significant collective threats to Minnesota's sport fishery: shoreline development, watershed health, and climate warming. Deep, cold water tullibee lakes with high quality, well-oxygenated waters and natural, undisturbed land cover along the shorelines and within their watersheds will have the best chance to sustain tullibee populations in the face of these threats and will serve as a ""refuge"" for the tullibee if annual temperatures increase. Minnesota DNR Fisheries researchers studied tullibee lakes and designated 68 lakes in Minnesota as the primary ""refuge lakes"" for tullibee that need protection. Thirty-eight (38) of these refuge lakes - 58 percent - are located in Hubbard, Crow Wing, Cass, and Aitkin counties. Many are also Minnesota's premier recreation lakes. Scope of Project: Minnesota DNR Fisheries research recommends that 75% of a lake's watershed be in permanent protection to ensure sustained water quality. Tullibee refuge lakes near this threshold were the highest priority for protection. In addition, the DNR's Sensitive Shoreland data were used to help identify priority lakes where conservation investments could be maximized. Landowner recruitment was focus on parcels in close proximity to protected land and which also had a high potential to expand upland and aquatic habitat complexes. Landowner applications were evaluated based on criteria established by the project's technical team. To ensure the best conservation return on the state's investment, landowner willingness to donate a portion of the easement value was a key component of the parcel evaluation. Best available data (state and county) was used to prioritize projects and maximize outcomes. The 2013 Minnesota DNR Fish Habitat Plan provided strategic guidance. Per the Fish Habitat Plan, nearshore fish habitat in lakes is largely affected by shoreline disturbance and the water quality habitat is determined by the water's oxygen level and nutrient content. Lakeshore development decreases a lake's ability to function as a healthy ecosystem for sport fish and their forage, not only by allowing increased runoff, but also through physical fish habitat alteration by lakeshore owners. Fisheries research has shown that healthy watersheds with intact forests are fundamental to good fish habitat. If 75% or more of its watershed remains forested and permanently protected, a lake has a high probability of sustaining a healthy lake ecosystem. The 38 tullibee refuge lakes in North Central Minnesota all have less than 25% land disturbance in their watersheds and already have some degree of watershed protection. While fisheries habitat protection was the primary focus of this project, creating strategic conservation complexes was an added benefit of permanent protection of forested, non-riparian lands within a tullibee refuge lake's watershed. A conservation easement or fee title acquisition added adjacent to other protected land will increase the overall conservation impact by creating larger permanently protected complexes of diverse habitat that benefit many species. Fee acquisition and conservation easements were used to achieve permanent conservation of fisheries habitat on strategic parcels primarily in the watersheds of the 38 tullibee refuge lakes in Hubbard, Cass, Crow Wing, and Aitkin counties. Protection was targeted to shoreland parcels and key private forested parcels within these lake watersheds. NWLT's role in the program was focused on targeted landowner recruitment, facilitating the technical team, grant administration, and acquisition of fee projects. MLT provided technical support and worked with landowners to secure conservation easements. Five properties were protected through this grant - one in fee (via NWLT) and four through conservation easements (via MLT). The five completed projects listed below are: NWLT: Woman Lake Aquatic Management Area, Tract 11 - Cass County. The 28.9 acre Lockman Family property was purchased by NWLT and conveyed to the State of Minnesota as part of the Woman Lake Aquatic Management Area. Woman Lake is within the Girl Lake watershed, which is categorized as a cold water tullibee refuge lake. The property has wetlands and sensitive lakeshore with diverse aquatic plants, birds, and other species. MLT: Sucker Brook (Roerick Trust) - Hubbard County. This 76-acre conservation easement is dominated by white cedar swamp and lies adjacent to the 321-acre Lester Lake SNA, Lester Lake AMA and the 100,000+ acre Paul Bunyan State Forest. The centerpiece of the property is the nearly one-mile riparian corridor of Sucker Brook, an important tributary to Kabekona Lake, a designated Tullibee Refuge Lake. MLT: Kabakona River (Hunke) - Hubbard County. The conservation easement protects >7,000 feet of the shoreline along the Kabekona River, a state-designated trout stream, and jack pine woodland communities on the uplands. The river is an important cold-water tributary to Kabekona Lake, an Outstanding Water Resource and a designated Tullibee Refuge Lake. MLT: Eleventh Crow Wing Lake (Olander) - Hubbard. County. This 400-acre property is part of a large landscape of protected natural lands, lying adjacent to the Paul Bunyan State Forest. The property's rolling terrain supports mixed hardwood-conifer forest, restored grasslands, wetlands, and ponds. Six SGCN have been observed here. MLT: Thunder Lake (Steiner) - Cass County.

This effort builds on previous LSOHC funding to control reed canary grass and plant trees as part of a long-term effort. ",,"Audubon’s floodplain forest enhancement program was designed to help sustain and enhance floodplain forest along the Mississippi River and the lower ends of major tributaries. The existing forest is dominated by mature silver maple (Acer saccharinum) trees which are starting to die back and there are not enough young trees in the forest to replace them. The forest lacks young trees largely because of the regular flooding and the presence of reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea), an invasive grass that grows in thick mats and inhibits the germination and growth of tree seedlings. In addition to the loss of mature trees and the lack of young trees, forest diversity is also declining because of dutch elm disease and the emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) which kill the older elm and ash that were once more common in these stands. These forests provide critical habitat for forest dependent birds but without active management they will continue to decline in quality and quantity over time. Our program is focused on managing invasive species and regenerating a variety of tree and shrub species to improve bottomland forest habitat for birds. We prepared sites for planting or natural regeneration using herbicide, disking, or mowing. We planted bare root tree seedlings, cottonwood cuttings, or direct seeded trees including oaks and walnuts. We used tree tubes to protect trees from deer and voles; improved tree vigor and growth through selective thinning; and controlled weeds through herbicide treatments and mowing after planting. Our geographic scope included the Mississippi River from Hastings, MN to the Iowa border and the lower ends of major tributaries. Much of this land in SE Minnesota includes state forests, Wildlife Management Areas, or National Wildlife and Fish Refuge lands. Our priorities were determined in cooperation with MN Department of Natural Resources, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and US Army Corps of Engineers. All projects were on public lands owned and managed by these agencies. Priorities were based on forest condition and threats, habitat needs, logistics, and access. Our goal was to manage invasive species long enough to establish young trees that will be the future forest canopy and maintain a diverse forest structure that benefits birds and other wildlife. Our objectives were designed to utilize a variety of enhancement tools, monitor the results, and apply that information to designing new projects. A description of each project is provided below. For some sites additional work may be continued with Phase 3 and Phase 4 of our floodplain forest enhancement program. Cannon River Bottoms / Collischan South (30 acres) This project was postponed in 2016 due to high water. A contractor treated 30 acres with herbicide during late summer 2017, and then planted 5000 bare root (BR) silver maple seedlings and 2400 Root Production Method (RPM) seedlings of silver maple, Ohio buckeye, river birch, Kentucky coffee tree, tulip tree, black gum, and sycamore during fall 2017. The contractor planted an additional 4600 BR seedlings during spring 2018. Reno Bottoms (60 acres) At the north end of Reno Bottoms, a contractor girdled 162 trees and treated the cuts with herbicide. Patches of reed canary grass were treated with herbicide and re-seeded with Virginia and Canada wild rye. Hardwood treesP a g e 3 | 11 were planted to maintain existing quality forest. In November 2018 a contractor planted RPM 50 Swamp White Oak, 50 Kentucky Coffee Trees, and hand seeded 5 lbs. of button bush. Richmond Island (10 acres) At Richmond Island we reduced black locust density, and treated buckthorn and honeysuckle with herbicide in late 2017 and early 2018. Root River (150 acres) This project has multiple phases including herbicide treatments, site preparation, direct seeding, planting bare root seedlings, planting RPM trees, planting cottonwood cuttings, timber stand improvement and post treatment weed control. In fall of 2018 we planted 200 swamp white oak bare root seedlings into mounds 1 ft. high and 2 ft. wide. We also planted 700 cottonwood cuttings, 550 swamp white oak RPM, an additional 1300 swamp white oak BR, 100 southern pin oak BR, and 50 bur oak BR. We also direct seeded 120 lbs. of swamp white oak acorns. In 2019 we planted 500 swamp white oak RPM trees. We also direct seeded silky dogwood, red dogwood, grey dogwood, nannyberry, and button bush. The Root River site will receive continued management in phase 3 and 4. Wabasha Bottoms (100 acres) We conducted a timber sale to enlarge gaps for tree planting. The harvest technique was used intentionally to create openings for tree planting and natural regeneration. In the fall of 2018, the openings were treated with herbicide. The gaps were planted with 2000 swamp white oak BR, 50 swamp white oak RPM, and 50 Kentucky coffee tree RPM. Unfortunately, spring flooding in 2019 killed the bare root seedlings and the Kentucky coffee trees. Within the southernmost harvested gaps, great silver maple regeneration was present, but did not persist. Whalen (8 acres) We completed multiple herbicide applications around trees planted in 2014 and 2015 to reduce competition with reed canary grass. We conducted site preparation for future plantings including mowing and disking. We collected cottonwood cuttings and planted 100 cottonwood spears. Unfortunately only 20% of the cottonwood planting survived, but the trees that did survive are 20 feet tall healthy Cottonwood. We speculated that our source population might not have been vigorous. By taking cuttings off the surviving cottonwood we hope to build a good source of strong trees thatwe can continue harvesting from in the future. Whitewater DNR (16 acres) We applied an herbicide treatment during the summer of 2016 but the fall of 2016 was too wet to do second herbicide treatment or to complete direct seeding. Herbicide was applied again during the summer/fall 2017. The area was direct seeded in spring 2018 with 6 bushels of Swamp white oak, 6 bushels bur oak, 3 bushel red oak, 3 bushel white oak, 3 bushels bitternut hickory, and 3 bushels of shagbark hickory.

Outreach development in FY14 included curriculum and video development for erosion control workshops to be held in the fall of 2014 and help creating a user-friendly field guide focused on forestry water quality BMPs which will be completed in FY15.",,,,41296,,,0.1,,,"The Minnesota DNR and the Minnesota Forest Resources Council work with forest landowners, managers and loggers to implement a set of voluntary sustainable forest management guidelines that include water quality best management practices (BMPs) to ensure sustainable habitat, clean water, and productive forest soils, all contributing to healthy watersheds. This project will monitor the implementation of these forest management guidelines and BMPs on forested watersheds in MN. Additionally, this project will identify timber harvest frequency and distribution as well as significant change to forest area including conversion of forests to other land uses, large fires, and blowdown events. An evaluation of the guideline implementation rates, watershed characteristics, and the frequency and distribution of forest change will be used to identify risks to water quality as well as strategies to reduce these risks, with the goal of maintaining high quality forested watersheds in MN. Outreach programs will be developed for forest landowners, managers and loggers throughout the target watersheds aimed at mitigating these risks such as improved implementation of specific BMPs. ","Forested watersheds in MN generally produce an abundance of high quality water. Much of our forested landscape is managed as productive forest land providing timber products as well recreational opportunities and abundant wildlife. Sustainable timber harvesting in combination with application of voluntary water quality BMP's has helped to maintain water quality in Minnesota's managed forest lands. However, risks to water quality in these landscapes still remain, with rates of BMP implementation, harvesting patterns, and watershed characteristics influencing the potential for impacts to occur at any given time or place. Also, recent trends in forestland development and loss in Minnesota has increased the risk of impacts to water quality in forested landscapes. Evaluation of BMP implementation and quantification of risk factors by watershed, combined with effective outreach programs, will allow for continued utilization of working forests while maintaining functioning, healthy watersheds that produce clean water.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","The short-term target of maintaining a timely response to new contacts and an efficient authentication procedure was met. The project manager prepared an intake form and authentication strategies prior to publicizing the search, so any submissions of potential Gilbert furnishings could be assessed and added to the system quickly. The intermediate target of writing stories as material was available and sharing them with the public was also met. Once the project manager collected sufficient information of an item, she wrote a story and compiled relevant photographs. Stories were shared through Facebook, newspaper articles, television interviews, and public programs. Web development proceeded to be done separately; that is, instead of pages being continuously added to the Cass Gilbert Society's existing website, a new site was created and unveiled at the end of the project term. This alternative still allowed for the public to receive project updates, while ensuring the future website was as refined and complete as possible. The initial plan also included adding 100 new pages to the existing website. The reality of this expansion was beyond knowing prior to the project. The resulting new website, with fewer pages but rich content including stories, photo albums, and maps, is a focused and thorough collection of all research and findings. The long-term target of publicizing information about Gilbert and the State Capitol has been met and will continue to be met as the website is continually shared by the Cass Gilbert Society and others. The website will be useful not only to site managers, historians, and architects for research purposes but also to the general public. The targets were met because the project team did not hastily roll out information about the project before sufficient research had occurred and systems of recording submissions were in place. This allowed for a smooth, thorough collection of data, stories, and photographs. Regular promotion of the project through personal outreach, media connections, and printed material also ensured that the project team met their targets.",,,"Available upon request.

Subject to evaluation criteria in Minnesota Rules, part 6136.0900, priority must be given to acquisition of lands that are eligible for the native prairie bank under Minnesota Statutes, section 84.96, or lands adjacent to protected native prairie. A list of proposed acquisitions must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan and must be consistent with the priorities in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan.",,"This project protected 1,778 acres of grassland, wetland, and prairie habitat as identified as a priority in the Outdoor Heritage Fund?s 25-Year Framework, and more specifically identified in the Prairie Plan. This project focused on lands identified by DNR, USFWS, and our partners as necessary for the conservation of habitat for wildlife and Species in Greatest Conservation Need. Minnesota County Biological Survey data as well as USFWS data were used to identify and prioritize sites of highest value for grassland birds and other prairie species such as the Dakota skipper and Poweshiek skipperling, both recently listed as threatened by USFWS. Because the majority of prairie and grassland habitat is found on private lands, this project helped protect those habitats and establish important connections to other protected lands, thereby creating larger complexes of protected grassland habitats.","A total of 1,778 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 1,778 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",33200,"Private and Private-landowner donations",1040500,29500,,0.66,"The Conservation Fund","Non-Profit Business/Entity","The Grassland Conservation Partnership Phase II grant resulted in the protection via conservation easement of 1,778 acres of grassland habitat and 3 miles of shoreline associated with 2 working grasslands projects in western Minnesota. Land protected through conservation easement exceeded the proposed outputs for this grant by 445% (1,778 versus 400 proposed acres). In addition, 140 acres of grasslands habitat was enhanced through the grant. ","Native grasslands are the most threatened ecosystem in Minnesota and one of the most threatened in the world. The Prairie Section as defined by LSOHC 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, significant amounts of Minnesota's conservation lands enrolled in the federal Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) have expired over the past half decade and have been removed from the program. Science has proven that proper application of haying and grazing techniques can be used to mimic natural processes necessary for healthy grass natural communities. Our colleagues at The Nature Conservancy and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service have proven these techniques successful in Minnesota over a significant period of time. TCF performed the initial landowner outreach and identified potential projects; MLT negotiated the terms of the conservation easements with the landowners. All easements are held and monitored by MLT in perpetuity. Lands targeted for conservation easement protection through this project met the following criteria: 1. Lands with significant existing prairie or grassland habitat 2. Lands near or within the Core Areas and Corridors identified in the Prairie Plan 3. Lands adjacent to or in close proximity to permanently protected land (e.g., WMAs, WPAs, CREP easements, TNC preserves, etc.) 4. Lands which will help establish connections between existing permanently protected lands, and those creating larger habitat complexes 5. Lands which may also include low production cropland that can be converted back into grasslands, thereby increasing overall grassland habitat MLT and TCF used these criteria to systematically vet and rank potential projects to ensure projects selected possessed the maximum conservation value for the state's investment. Projects were also screened to identify producers with a proven ability to successfully implement the best management practices for conservation grazing. MLT used the proven ""reverse-bid"" model to incentivize landowners to donate a portion of easement value and allow for the most efficient use of conservation funds. This reverse bid model first ranks the projects according to their habitat values and then ranks them according to the landowner's bid on what they are willing to get paid for the conservation easements. Projects selected provided the greatest conservation benefits at the lowest cost to the State. Two conservation easement projects were completed through this grant, totaling 1,778 acres and protecting 3 miles of shoreline: Caribou Parklands (Finney) - This massive 1,510-acre conservation easement embodies the innovative protection strategy championed by the Grasslands Conservation Partnership program. Located in Kittson County in Minnesota?s unique Tallgrass Aspen Parklands biome, this property is part of a conservation grazing operation that is sustained by rotational grazing and selective haying. Strategically located in an approximately 10-square mile area of private land that is surrounded by three WMAs, this property provides a critical link between vast stretches of public lands. Ten native plant communities have been identified on the property, including rare prairie and wetland communities. Approximately 220 acres of native prairie is present. The property is home to numerous state-listed wildlife species, including moose, elk, and marbled godwit, as well as many other species that are considered Species in Greatest Conservation Need, such as sharptailed grouse and northern harrier. Perch Lake (Samuelson) - Nearly two miles of shoreline on Perch Lake and an additional unnamed lake in Otter Tail County are protected through this impressive 267-acre conservation easement. Located six miles northwest of Parkers Prairie, this property is situated in the scenic Leaf Hills, a rugged glacial moraine that is part of the larger Alexandria Moraine. The property contains extensive rolling pasture, grazed through a Conservation Grazing Plan, as well as a narrow isthmus located between Perch Lake and an additional unnamed lake. The isthmus is pockmarked with wetland basins and contains large stands of Pin Oak - Bur Oak Woodland, a community that is considered ""vulnerable to extirpation"" in Minnesota. This portion of the property is also part of a Site of Moderate Biodiversity Significance and is located less than a mile west of Folden Woods Marsh Wildlife Management Area. A large 140-acre enhancement project also occurred on the Perch Lake (Samuelson) property after the easement closed. Portions of this easement had a long history of grazing and the Land Trust worked with the landowners to develop a rotational grazing system to improve and maintain the important habitats found on this portion of the property. The Land Trust also installed fencing to operationalize the rotational grazing system. These initial investments will allow for season-long habitat across the property, providing varied grass heights, and allowing for grassland plant species to complete their lifecycles on portions of the property every year. This will, in turn, provide valuable foraging and nesting habitat for grasslands birds, as well as floral resources and shelter for prairie pollinators.

10007359,"Investigating the Cultural Geography of St. Cloud State University",2017,9000,,,"Available upon request. Contact grants@mnhs.org","Short Term 1. A sizeable database of primary objects in University Archives at St. Cloud State University and Stearns History Museum. a.The main Excel workbook for this project included as of 12/15/2017 i.650 lines of data ii.Still Images: 405 lines representing more than 3,805 images 1.1 album, 3 books, 2 boxes, 80 folders, 320 objects iii.Text: 188 lines representing more than 843 documents 1.4 collections, 44 folders, 133 objects iv.Maps: 57 lines representing 87 maps 1.2 collections, 55 objects v.We easily met our goal of a 'sizeable' database of objects or collections of objects that begin to tell the story of the changing land use of St. Cloud State University. However, we spent twice as much time than anticipated to create this database. b.Rengel created a secondary workbook to track the addresses of the homes and lots within the North Campus and South Campus and to track the various campus buildings and businesses on the campus. (The East Campus area apparently never had homes on it or structures other than those related to campus facilities.) This secondary spreadsheet, though in rough draft form, begins to shape by street address the built environment that became the campus. Data here could help create metadata based upon address, in addition to the geographic information in the main spreadsheet. 2. Increased knowledge and understanding of the cultural forces that shaped the choices of buildings and structures that would become St. Cloud State. a.Through the act of reviewing so many collections within the St. Cloud State University Archives and Stearns History Museum, through questions shared and answered, or at least raised, between Ms. Rengel and the staff members at these two organizations, through attempts by all to identify contents of photos, to compare photos to maps to documents, the knowledge at both locations has expanded significantly. Awareness has grown significantly. One challenge, though is the transfer of much of this knowledge from the researcher to the permanent staff and the presentation of information to benefit researchers in the future. b.The project clearly led to a significantly increased knowledge about what happened. Much more work is needed to explain why people made the decisions they did over the years. i.An example: Looking at the Curtis Survey of this area, which was done in 1855, 14 years before the state's third normal school opened in St. Cloud in 1869, might lead one to believe that the neighborhood was already a grid, with graded streets and avenues meeting at right angles and clearly defined lots. But looking at the 1902 photograph of the block that would become home to the Performing Arts Center, taken by the Minneapolis Tribune, one can see only the beginnings of that grid system, with streets not yet created and land spreading off into the distance where homes will eventually be built. ii.Another example: Photographs and Sanborn Insurance maps show what appear to be single-family homes. But comparison to information in campus directories and even reviewing the Talahi yearbooks, tells the story that many houses were used, as early as the 1880s and 1890s, as student housing, some filled only with students, some where a student lived in the home with a family. Eventually, St. Cloud State would own apartment buildings on the campus where once stood homes that provided rooms to students. Intermediate Outcomes: There are four intermediate measurable outcomes to this project. 1. The vastly increased knowledge of staff at University Archives and Stearns History Museum of the information in their collections related to the St. Cloud State University campus. Rengel intends to put her increased knowledge to work on behalf of both organizations by: a. Conducting an MDL digitization project for maps in the John D. Morgan collection at University Archives. b.Conducting an MDL digitization project of rare photographs in University Archives and the Stearns History Museum's collection. 1.Earliest photographs in both collections 2.Work of photographer E.S. Hill c.Conducting a collaborative digitization project of photographs within both collections of several of the campus areas identified in this project. 1.St. Cloud Water, Power and Mill Co's Subdivision 2.First Avenue South 2. The number of ideas for projects built upon this work a.University Archives graduate student assistant Kayla Stielow, who began work in archives in August as an intern and a student assistant as this Cultural Geography project was underway, will use the data from Ms. Rengel's research to investigate the expansion and change of St. Cloud State overtime to develop a narrative of the campus's history. Her project is part of St. Cloud State's sesquicentennial celebration. We anticipate this work will also inform at least two classes, one graduate and another undergraduate, as they investigate the history of St. Cloud State that will also inform the sesquicentennial, too. b.Slide shows on the significant areas of campus. i.Hockey ii.Miller Center iii.Education Building iv.The Original Campus: Between the Mississippi River and 1st Avenue v.Stores, restaurants, churches on this land vi.Before the grid: the land before square blocks with streets and avenues became the norm c.An Aerial Time Machine --- using digitized aerial photographs, and/or digitizing aerial photographs to present a flying tour of campus over time. i.As if a helicopter were hovering over the south end of the main campus and time flashed by in the cockpit window ii.OR, as if the helicopter were circling campus and the years changed with each circle. d.Speculation -- What if the plans that weren't chosen had come to pass? ' An image-based project to show what might have been. e.Digital 'Flip Book' of campus maps to show growth. f.An in-depth investigation of St. Cloud city directories for other uses of the land and the buildings, such as churches, lunch counters, office space, etc. 3. A list of some collections and organizations that merit further investigation: a.Collections at the St. Cloud State University Archives. i.Chronicle student newspaper ' Because the information is easily accessible, and often secondary, we chose early on not to do in-depth research into this publication right now. While we did include photographs and articles when we encountered them, we left a deeper exploration for a later date. ii.University Communications (Information Services) press release collection ' We included some press releases as we came across them in the research and discovered that the press release collection could provide additional information. It deserves a thorough review. iii.Oral Histories ' Time did not permit us to investigate the data in oral histories, nor the few oral histories within the collections. Doing so would add interpretation and perspective to the facts of the land use information. iv.Minutes of the governing bodies for St. Cloud State, including the Normal School Board, the State Teachers College Board, the State College Board and the State University Board. While essentially secondary resources, these minutes often contain the only surviving information on the development of the campus, particularly in the early years. Additionally, they often provide clues and leads for further investigation. v.Minnesota legislation ' We see potential for investigating legislative records for laws critical to the development of the campus, such as Amendment 2 to the Minnesota Constitution, passed in the early 1960s, which eliminated a debt limit and allowed borrowing for building and capital improvements. Much of the work of campus development was done in coordination with Minnesota state agencies and was governed by legislative approval. vi.We focused our work on primary sources, photographs, maps and documents older than 1970. We would expand our information to include materials created since 1970. b.Collections at Stearns History Museum i.Myron Hall, long-time photographer to the St. Cloud Times, contributed his extensive collection of negatives and prints to the Stearns History Museum. This treasure trove needs much preservation and cataloging work to preserve and mine all of the valuable information in it. Once that cataloging is done, it will provide priceless resources on the cultural geography, at least from the late 1930s through the early 1970s. ii.St. Cloud city directories. This collection could provide land use information, to capture the flow from undeveloped prairie and woods to neighborhoods to campus buildings. While the city directories helped Rengel identify photographs of homes in the geographic areas under examination, she did not take the time to delve into them as deeply as she would have liked, once she realized their value. iii.Frank Jackson & Associates collection ' We included reference to this architectural firm's collection in the spreadsheet but did not have time to investigate the materials. Such an investigation could prove extremely valuable for capturing the discussions of how and why the buildings Jackson created for the campus took the shapes they did and were situated in the community as they were. iv.Additional collections ' Stearns History Museum is in the midst of a Cultural Heritage grant project of their own to inventory collections. The database they are creating pointed us in directions for our cultural geography project and following up on the collections Stearns has been identifying will provide us with excellent resources and information. v.St. Cloud newspapers ' Stearns History Museum and St. Cloud State University Library each has extensive microfilm collections of St. Clouds newspapers. Stearns History Museum has formed the basis of much of their public-facing resources on these newspapers and staff experience with St. Cloud's newspapers would suggest that work within these collections be conducted there. Additionally, using the Minnesota Digital Newspaper Hub through the Minnesota Historical Society for very early St. Cloud newspapers would expedite research within these publications. c.Other organizations i.City of St. Cloud's 'SCGIS: Interactive Mapping Tool,' (http://stcloudcity.com/link/jsfe/) ' This is database provided primary information on the current land-use, zoning codes, building values, etc. Information could be harvested as needed on vacated streets and alleys, original survey information, and coordinates for geographical information. It is, however, limited to modern land uses, but would provide an interesting starting point for creating GIS information for buildings that used to occupy this land. ii.City of St. Cloud offices ' There are likely records in the city offices, particularly the planning office, that relate to the development of the St. Cloud State campus. iii.County Recorder, Stearns County ' As the keeper of all deed information, it would be valuable to visit the County Recorder's office. Staff at Stearns History Museum are aware of documents there worth investigation. Also, we expect there are specifics records there that would track back to the beginnings of the county and the city. iv.County Recorder, Sherburne County ' Only Selke Field and Brainard Hall, which we have designated as the East Campus, are located in Sherburne County, but it may be interesting to at least visit this county's recorder office to capture early deed information. Should this project expand to include the Talahi Woods and the quarry lands near the Minnesota Correctional Facility (Reformatory) known as George Friedrich Park, Sherburne County Recorder's office would provide valuable information. v.Minnesota Historical Society ' We recognize that deeper research within the collections at the state historical society will help us flesh out details of the cultural geography of St. Cloud State, particularly records that pre-date the formation of the third normal school in 1869. 4.An article for Stearns History Museum's 'Crossings' magazine, which Rengel will write, that focuses on the personal story behind her search for information in University Archives and at Stearns on the neighborhood of her childhood, her father's college years, and the town she calls home. Long-term Long lasting results of this research include but are not limited to 1.Increased communication between the St. Cloud State University Archives and the Stearns History Museum on resources in the two collections that tell the story of St. Cloud State University. 2.Increased knowledge at the staff level of the cultural geography of this land. 3.Understanding of the interrelated nature of the collections in preserving and using the information in the collections to tell the story of campus. 4.Establishing a format and method for searching for and the presenting information on the materials in the collections. 5.Inspiration. This project showed us what dedicating a person's time to the work of exploring the collections can yield. The grant funding provided us with the opportunity to deeply explore collections at the repositories and to pull together in one online resource the results of that exploration. a.This work, in essence, allowed us to remove the silo walls that separated the collections at two repositories and to combine them, at least within the scope of the cultural geography of St. Cloud State, into one whole picture of the 150-years of change upon this land. The work of this project strives to point researchers to resources that can help them understand and share answers to the questions 'How and why did we become who and what we are?' Answering those questions is extremely challenging, especially for people who are the beneficiaries of the work of earlier generations. Soon the goals, the values, the promises of one generation get lost in time as projects move forward, advancing, shifting, retreating as forces of the day demand. The answers to 'How' and 'Why' are often answers of the moment. The work of this Cultural Geography project aims to show where at the St. Cloud State University Archives and Stearns History Museum those answers are preserved and to lead researchers to the maps, photographs, and documents that will help them answer the questions of 'how' and 'why.'",,2512,"Available upon request.

The number of irrigation permits is currently at an all-time high. Water management and nitrogen fertilizer strategies must be managed together. Many farmers, particularly those newly implementing irrigation, would benefit from increased education on irrigation and nitrogen best management practices (BMPs). The absence of an Irrigation Specialist was identified as a critical need by the irrigation community and other ag stakeholders. During the 2011 Forum on Minnesota Irrigated Agriculture. the lack of an irrigation specialist at the University of Minnesota was one of the most important issues discussed.

35077,"Jack Pine Forest/Crow Wing River Watershed Habitat Acquisition",2017,3355400,"ML 2016, Ch. 172, Art. 1, Sec. 2, Subd. 3(b)","$3,570,000 the second year is to the commissioner of natural resources for an agreement with the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association to acquire in fee and restore and enhance forest habitat lands in Cass and Hubbard Counties for county forest purposes. A list of proposed land acquisitions must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Protected 2,280 acres (in fee without state PILT liability) ",,,,3355400,,,0.31,"MN Deer Hunters Association","Non-Profit Business/Entity","This project protected in fee approximately 1,960 acres in Cass County and 320 acres in Hubbard County of forest habitat that are at significant risk of conversion to row crop agriculture. The project also restored 92 acres jack pine, an increasingly rare tree species, in the project area. ",,"During past decade there has been a significant loss of forest habitat within the Crow Wing River Watershed due to the conversion of that habitat to row crop agriculture and other development. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) estimates that about 42 square miles of pine forest have been cleared or are at elevated risk of being cleared and converted to croplands.  To slow the loss of forest lands and they habitat provided by them, the project protected by acquisition in fee 2,280 acres of high priority habitat within the Crow Wing River Watershed. To achieve the project goals, the acquired fee parcels were transferred to Cass and Hubbard Counties to hold in fee and manage. This project also funded the restoration of 92 acres of jack pine to the landscape. The amount of jack pine within the project area has been significantly reduced through a combination of conversion to row crop agriculture or replacement with other forest cover types such as red pine plantation.  Jack pine is a relatively rare forest type in Minnesota and provides habitat for many unique species. It is well-suited to the sandy soil types in the Crow Wing River Watershed. This project used several forest management tools to restore the jack pine that included site preparation, planting, bud capping and brush control. No herbicides were used for site preparation and brush control. The acquisition of these parcels and the restoration of jack pine forest has provided significant value beyond the protection of key forest habitat. The project will also benefit water quality by conserving forest cover that helps to filter pollutants from percolating through the sandy soils that are prevalent in the Crow Wing River Watershed. It had provided increased public access for hunting and recreational activities. It has also enabled land managers of adjacent state and county lands to easily access those lands for forest management while providing wood fiber from the land to supply local mills. Water quality in the Crow Wing Watershed has become a top priority as a significant number of acres of forestland within the watershed has been converted to row crop agriculture and several irrigation pivots have been installed.  By protecting these lands from conversion, this project will provide increased protection of the surface and ground water, as well as provide sufficient wildlife habitat throughout the area. The Byron Township Land acquisition included approximately 686 acres. Through consolidation of lands into larger blocks, better habitat can be created. Combining these lands with the adjoining County and State management forest lands, a habitat block of nearly 5,800 acres has been permanently protected.   The Poplar Township Land acquisition included approximately 1,274 acres. Combining these lands with the adjoining County and State management forest lands, another habitat block of nearly 4,300 acres has been permanently protected.  Approximately  1.25 miles of Farnham Creek habitat flows through the property. The acquisition also adjoins and buffers the Dry Sand Lake Wildlife Management Area The Badoura Township land acquisition included approximately 240 acres and connects two large blocks of county and state lands, including the Crow Wing Chain W. M. A., providing permanent protection to over 7,500 acres of quality wildlife habitat. The Lake George Township land acquisition included approximately 80 acres of remote forestland that is completely surrounded by existing county-managed lands.  This acquisition protects the 80 acre parcel from potential fragmentation and loss of public recreation.

10007365,"Lake Minnetonka Nautical Archaeology Project: Anomaly Assessment and ROV Study",2017,9995,,,"Available upon request. Contact grants@mnhs.org","MHM short and intermediate term goals for this project were met in any measurable way. MHM's primary goals for the Lake Minnetonka Nautical Archaeology: Anomaly Assessment and ROV Study (LMNA-AA-ROV) Project, a Phase 1 archaeological reconnaissance survey, was to: 1. Examine specific wrecks and anomalies recognized through a sonar survey and determine their significance as submerged cultural resources; and 2. Determine the validity of and the value of using a low-cost Remotely Operated (ROV) in the identification of unknown anomalies, particularly deeper targets. During the LMNA-AA-ROV Project, MHM examined 38 anomalies assigned these numbers: were A84, A76, A88, A90, A113, A117, A125.3, A129.6, A256, A456, A465, A475, A544b, A579, A581, A590, A614, A623, A625, A630, A646, A648, A649, A653, A650, A651, A654, A670, A671, A673, A674, A675, A676, A689, A690, A691, A692, and A694. MHM also dove on 2 known wrecks to answer archaeological questions: the Small Utility Wreck Site (Anomaly 601, now known as the Herter's Model Hudson Bay Wreck) and the Burned Fiberglass Wreck Site (Anomaly 600). MHM also revisited one previously known object, the Anchor, Metal, Glass, and Wood Site (Anomaly 599), to answer questions - it is now known as the Possible Buried Car Site. Using data accumulated from the fieldwork as a starting point, MHM conducted research to place newly recognized nautical archaeological sites and anomalies into their historical contexts. Minnesota Archaeological Site Forms were filed with the Office of the State Archaeologist (OSA) when appropriate: Fisherman's Friend Wreck 3 (Anomaly 676, 21-HE-499), Wooden Motor Boat Wreck 2 (21-HE-500), Hydroplane Wreck (Anomaly 651, 21-HE-501), Hydroplane Wreck 2 (Anomaly 691, 21-HE-502), Burned Fiberglass Wreck (Anomaly 599, 21-HE-504), and the (maritime site) Marine Launch Boiler Site (Anomaly 117, 21-HE-503). The other wrecks identified during the project are: Jet Stream Wreck (A84), Crestliner Admiral Wreck (A689), and the Forester Canoe Wreck (A694) - MHM and its volunteers confirmed the existence of 7 new wrecks. Initially, the proposed number of anomalies to be investigated were at a minimum - 32 unknown targets along with 2 known wrecks and 1 known object to answer questions about their nature. Therefore, MHM dove on 41 targets as opposed to the minimum number of 32 targets proposed a highly successful project. Seven more wreck sites were included in the on-going Lake Minnetonka sediment study; Bruce Koenen of the OSA suggested the study in 2013 in order to determine the rate of sediment build-up in different areas of the lake. This data is used to approximate the sinking dates of boats and other resources, using wrecks with known sinking dates for comparison. During the LMNA-AA-ROV project, in addition to the submerged resources described above, MHM also identified 5 new maritime sites/objects (1 boat hatch cover, 1 boat lift, 1 capsized barrel raft, a collection of 7 fish cribs, 1 anchor) and 3 other objects/sites (1 rubble pile, 2 barrels). Natural anomalies in include 5 tree stumps (all natural but dumped on the ice/in the lake on purpose), 5 rocks or rock piles, and 14 false targets that were unusual bottom contours or vegetation. MHM's 2nd objective for the LMNA-AA-ROV Project was to test the viability of using a low-cost ROV in deeper water to identify unknown targets in order to plan dives more efficiently and as a by-product, safely. MHM first tested the ROV in shallow water at a shoreline dock, and with practice, the ROV performed well. MHM then tested the ROV on a known relatively shallow (28 feet deep) wreck, testing out different rigs in order to more effectively pilot the robot underwater. The test was successful in that MHM took some photos of the wreck. The next test was on Anomaly 625 in 46 feet of water. MHM had problems navigating the ROV not only on the surface, but on the lake bottom. While the ROV has a depth sensor, the directional sensor is useless and the machine lost communication with the topside laptop several times, resulting in complete re-boots of the ROV and it had to be brought to the surface. Through many trials, MHM finally located Anomaly 625 a tree on the lake bottom. Therefore, while technically successful, in that MHM identified 2 objects on the lake bottom, the use of this generation of ROV is not helpful for MHM's goals and work because of its extreme limitations (see attached). The ROV had directional problems in 28 and 46 feet; the problems would only get exponentially worse in 80, 90, or 100+ feet of water - particularly since sunlight is lost around 70 feet deep, creating virtually a night diving situation. A more advanced - but relatively low-cost - ROV was supposed to be on the market in June 2017 but the manufacturers are behind in development, and it is not yet available. One of MHM''s volunteers has placed an order for one of the units, so MHM will test it in the future to determine its value to underwater archaeology. For now, the ROV tested is only good in shallow water with great visibility conditions MHM only deals with about 20% of the time, and SCUBA divers can perform the work better and faster than an ROV. After the completion of the LMNA-AA-ROV Project fieldwork in September 2017, there are now 66 wreck sites identified on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka (including a dugout canoe that was removed from the lake in 1934). Of these wrecks, 41 of them have 40 Minnesota archaeological site numbers; 2 wrecks are features of one site. Further, 4 other types of maritime sites have archaeological site numbers and there are 25 maritime sites or objects without numbers. Additionally, 27 'other' objects have been identified that do not have site numbers, including 8 vehicles that include a snowmobile, truck, and 6 cars. All the resources dove upon during the LMNA-AA-ROV Project were rudimentarily documented for future study. For those not provided numbers during the project, designations as nautical or maritime archaeological sites in the future is possible; data from this project will be used at that time. The goal of educating volunteer divers on proper search techniques was exceeded-the amount of data collected during the diving, the great attitudes of MHM's volunteers about the sites investigated, and the eagerness to investigate more anomalies to learn about them is rewarding. MHM's plan to educate the general public through social and professional media have also met with great success - including 2 archaeology fairs encompassing 3 days, 2 public speaking engagements and MHM's participation in a University of Minnesota Continuing Education class in September 2017. MHM's 'followers' on social media increased greatly due to the LMNA-AA-ROV Project. Followers have learned about the importance of keeping submerged cultural resources unspoiled and about the impressive maritime history of Minnesota that MHM is continually uncovering. An online dialog about the significance and rarity of Lake Minnetonka's and Minnesota's protected nautical, maritime, and underwater cultural resources is on-going and will continue. During the LMNA-AA-ROV Project, MHM met expectations and produced substantial and meaningful results from this project due to sound fieldwork planning, solid methodology employed during the fieldwork, the previous systematic methodology employed during the remote sensing surveys that provided good data, and the utilization of knowledge gained from MHM's other Lake Minnetonka Nautical Archaeology Projects. Further, while the ROV testing did not provide the desired results, MHM has proven that at this time, it is not appropriate to use for serious underwater archaeological studies; it is more of a fun toy for people to play with in shallow water. Investing in more advanced remote sensing sonar equipment (MHM's unit was new and state-of-the-art in 2010, but technological advancements are many and they move quickly) is a better and a time-tested alternative for MHM - acquiring a new unit is a priority. Additionally, MHM's vetting of volunteer divers choosing only ethical, responsible people who understand our Mission to locate, document, preserve, and conserve Minnesota's finite submerged cultural resources within a not-for-profit paradigm led to a productive and honest working environment in the field. Fundamentally, MHM conducted sound nautical and maritime archaeology, strong maritime historical research that produced trustworthy data for analysis and future use, and we chose a group of trustworthy volunteers to assist us with the fulfillment of this project's goals.",,1251,"Available upon request.

Although both lakes still meet nutrient goals, trends in Secchi depth may presage emerging issues with the state of the lakes. This has further led to questions whether the productivity of the lakes have changed over time, what the natural or historical condition of the lakes were, what the current trajectory of each lake is, and how to best set management goals. Paleolimnological techniques reconstruct the nutrient and algal history and trends in sedimentation of these two lakes.

Civics education is the study of constitutional principles and the democratic foundation of our national, state, and local institutions and the study of political processes and structures of government, grounded in the under-standing of constitutional government under the rule of law. ","1.  Complete the redesign of the teachingcivics.org website, adding student and teacher engagement tools such as polling, forums, conversations, and data collection which will help build stronger civic education efforts throughout the state. 2.  Add 100 lessons to teachingcivics.org and continue to update content and links. 3. Enhance student programs by (a) increasing the number of students and schools participating in grant supported civic education student programs with particular focus on high needs schools; (b) updating programs by integrating technology when appropriate; (c) providing professional development for teachers; (a)promote student programs such as We the People and Project Citizen in communities that currently are not participating on either a local or state level. (b) In some cases, the use of technology to connect students in different communities with statewide events will help expand program participation and will be pursued by using technology already available in communities. (c)Teachers will be supported in their efforts to implement high quality civic education using proven practices through professional development experiences. This programming will be co funded by grants from the Minnesota Department of Education and others (currently the federally funded James Madison Legacy Project). For example, the Legacy grant will provide critical resources to support LLAD's Update Institute which focuses on Minnesota and federal civic knowledge content and current issues. 4. Help partners conduct high quality civic education programs through activities such as professional development support, program design consultation, and stronger civic education partnerships. ","Website: (Proposed outcomes 1 and 2) Website redesign partially completed, . Much of the information architecture is completed, some minor redesign of the search tool needed. Graphic design was not accepted. Engagement tool of polling was added; others were not completed. LLAD is seeking new developer. 786 lessons were reviewed, updated. Users: 3836 Minnesota users accessed lessons 14,556 times. Average number of pages accessed per session went from 2.14 to 2.71 2.29% are new users this past year. We use Google Analytics to measure our outcomes. Student Activities: WTP 78 students (up 39%), 30 teams for the annual We the People State Showcase Dec 12, 2017. In addition, 11 more teachers/schools held simulated hearings in their schools. May 15, 2018 Project Citizen at State Capitol 36 projects, 149 students (31% increase); Three new teachers in St Louis Park are going to have their 9th grade students participate in Project Citizen this coming year, joining Chaska Middle School having all students participate. Professional Development: 208 teachers were supported in their efforts to implement civic education with their students through high quality professional development in civics and government. When possible, these efforts are co funded/co sponsored and vary from one hour to 4 days. ",,,,,,,,"Learning Law and Democracy Foundation","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Learning Law and Democracy will enhance civic education across Minnesota by increasing the value of teachingcivics.org through redesigned architecture and an updated look and feel along with the addition of new lessons and user instructions. Student programs supported with this grant will also experience a redesign to capitalize on the renovated State Capitol and new Senate Building and will benefit from new partners and teachers with increased capacity to teach through professional development. Learning Law and Democracy Foundation: Civic Education for a Strong Democracy – Learning Law and Democracy Foundation's ""Civic Education for a Strong Democracy"" project will increase the quality and reach of LLAD's student civic education programs and enhance the value of the website teachingcivics.org through a redesign that provides engaging tools for students and teachers to facilitate authentic conversation, collects important impact data, and connects educators with new and improved resources.

This proposal will help us reach those organizational goals by increasing our adult programming. Through our programming we will engage over 500 adults and children in high quality arts experiences, creating a deeper connection between the artist and audience, and building a stronger arts community in Fergus Falls. We will provide a variety of events that appeal to different audiences and will hopefully bring more people into the gallery. We record attendance to every gallery event and will measure initial success by meeting our attendance goals. Impact will be measured indirectly through guest book comments, new mailing list sign ups, and increased attendance to future events and workshops. We will directly measure impact through surveys to both our general audience and to the workshop participants. We have already begun a process to gain feedback from our general audience through an email survey asking what events they attend and why or why they don't attend events, which will be sent out later this year. We will follow this up next year with another survey, which can follow up on the events outlined in this proposal as well. We can also compare attendance data from 2016 workshops and events to 2017 workshops and events to see if they have improved. Over the last two years we have kept spreadsheets recording event attendance, scholarship, costs, and income, (along with other information) to make sure we are running our programs efficiently and making the most impact with our resources.

For the proposed outreach activities, our goals are to educate children about theater and music and to provide them with tools that engage art and physical exercise as well as to introduce them to the environment of a gallery. For our area seniors, our goals are perhaps more simple: to brighten their day. The Center relies on audience surveys for public performances and tailors each survey for the specific event. Many of these questions concern the audience's perception of the quality of the artwork. We also ask the performance group to contribute specific questions as a form of feedback for them. Perhaps because of our intimate performance space, one which prompts a good bit of socializing, often around a refreshment table, our survey return rate is fairly high. In addition, the use of informal conversations initiated by staff with audience members during intermission and after performances, yield useful data.

This will be done through an enrichment program of interpretive dance and education on core values in life and by having all members of the group dressed in the native costumes, using traditional instruments. While tolerance, peace, and harmony are hard to measure, it is hoped that through continuing performances reaching a broader audience, those values will be thought about in greater capacity. Also, the desire is for people to have a new awareness of their neighbors, change their attitude if needed to one of welcome and acceptance, and to recognize and focus on similarities instead of differences. Feedback will be sought from event planners regarding comments heard about each performance. Interviews with dance participants will be conducted to verify how their outreach has progressed.","Performance expectations were well met and favorable comments were given regarding the authenticity of the costumes, head dress, and dance techniques. Audience members, which often included a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds, felt the performance was quite enlightening and educational, especially to some children who were being exposed to the culture of the Mexican nation for the very first time.

Began a multi-year restoration of a wetland complex impacted by legacy milling waste and non-native species in 2019 (to be completed fall 2021). 40th Ave. West: placed biomedium (organic-rich sediment sourced from Kingsbury Bay) to help restore benthic macroinvertebrate and aquatic plant communities at a MN Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) restoration site. This task was completed in 2020. ","   ","From early concept design and feasibility assessments to on-the-ground construction, the SLRRI followed a programmatic, partner-driven approach to implement large, complex, aquatic restoration projects.  Conceptual designs were developed around specific restoration goals and objectives.  These designs recognized and integrated current knowledge of natural processes in the St. Louis River.  Throughout the formal design process, SLRRI involved a Restoration Site Team (RST) composed of local resource managers, experts, researchers, and stakeholders.  The RST contributed expertise and knowledge, reviewed the design at various points throughout the process, and provided input and recommendations.  This involvement contributed greatly to the goal of designing resilient, self-sustaining habitat components that met project goals and objectives.     Grassy Point and Kingsbury Bay: SLRRI is completing restorations at Grassy Point and Kingsbury Bay as a combined project. Project objectives include excavation of accumulated sediments from Kingsbury Bay to restore open water wetlands and coastal marsh habitats.  MNDNR will beneficially use the clean sediments removed from Kingsbury Bay to remediate wood waste impairments at Grassy Point and facilitate the establishment of healthy open-water wetland. The project will construct a complex of created islands that will shelter the bay behind them. The islands will also increase the overall project site diversity by supporting healthy upland and littoral functions. Funds from this appropriation were used by SLRRI to manage and coordinate all steps necessary to advance these large, complex restoration projects. The SLRRI also applied ML2016 funds to project design, engineering, and construction contracts.  The SLRRI awarded a contract to Barr Engineering in March 2017 to complete the project design using funds from the OHF and the USEPA - GLRI. The design process was completed with input from the public and technical partners on the RST. A Heath Impact Assessment (HIA) was completed by the USEPA, which incorporated additional public input to evaluate the impact of the design on fish and wildlife habitat, water quality, and other public health-related issues. No funding from OHF was used for the HIA. The findings of the HIA showed a positive social health outcome by implementing the MNDNR Draft Final Design. A Record of Decision pertaining to the state's Environmental Review was issued, and all necessary permits and agreements were obtained. The Final Design and bid documents were completed in March 2018. In April 2019, a construction contract was awarded to Veit, Inc. Construction began in June 2019. Major activities completed in 2019 included: underwater buttress and berm construction at Grassy Point, sediment excavation at Kingsbury Bay with beneficial use at Grassy Point, and non-native cattail removal at Kingsbury Bay. Construction resumed in spring 2020; over 120,000 cubic yards of legacy wood waste were removed from the waters of Grassy Point, and used to construct a series of islands.  At Kingsbury Bay, the remaining non-native cattails were removed, as well as excess sediments.  The clean sediments were beneficially used to cap the constructed island features at Grassy Point, and to restore benthic habitat at both Grassy Point and a nearby project at 40th Avenue West (led by the MPCA, see below).  Channel control structures (j-hooks, boulder vanes, and log sills) were constructed at the inlets to Kingsbury and Keene Creeks.  During the 2020 construction season, it became apparent that production rates would extend the completion of both projects into 2021.  The project is currently scheduled for completion in fall 2021. 40th Avenue West This is a ""remediation to restoration"" project being completed under the St. Louis River Area of Concern program and led by the MPCA.  At 40th Avenue West, MPCA constructed six underwater shoals to eliminate contaminant exposure pathways and restore shallow sheltered bay habitat to improve fish, wildlife, and native plant communities.  The shoals were completed in 2018. The project's design included a six-inch application of ""biomedium"" over the completed shoal features.  Biomedium describes clean sediment rich in organic material, plant propagules, and benthic macroinvertebrates and is intended to ""jump start"" bug and plant communities on the constructed features. After the sediments in Kingsbury Bay were characterized, MNDNR and MPCA identified an opportunity to collaborate by beneficially using approximately 19,000 cubic yards of the dredged Kingsbury Bay sediments as biomedium to cover a 27-ac portion of the shoals.

35061,"Marsh Lake Phase II",2017,2000000,"ML 2016, Ch. 172, Art. 1, Sec. 2, Subd. 4(f)","$2,000,000 the second year is to the commissioner of natural resources to modify the dam at Marsh Lake for improved habitat management and to return the historic outlet of the Pomme de Terre River to Lac Qui Parle. ",,"Continuation of Marsh Lake Enhancement; enhanced 5,100 acres of wetlands   https://www.lsohc.leg.mn/FY2013/accomp_plan/4f.pdf ",,,,2000000,,,,DNR,"State Government","The primary goal of the Marsh Lake Ecosystem Restoration Project is, “To return the Marsh Lake area ecosystem to a less degraded and more natural condition by restoring ecosystem structure and functions.” Work was completed on this project in March 2020 and consisted of a new water control structure to allow for water level management, restoration of the Pomme de Terre River to its original channel, and establishment of a fishway to allow for movement of native fish. ",,"Marsh Lake is an impoundment of the Minnesota River in west-central Minnesota near Appleton. Marsh Lake was created in the late 1930s by construction of a dam which resulted in a shallow lake that measured approximately 5,000 acres. The lower Pomme de Terre River was rerouted into the reservoir at that time to facilitate construction of a two mile long earthen dike that was required to impound the lake. The Marsh Lake Dam is owned and maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as part of the Lac qui Parle Flood Risk Management project. Marsh Lake lies within the State of Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Lac qui Parle Wildlife Management Area.Marsh Lake is the border between Big Stone and Lac qui Parle Counties, while most of the outlet area of Marsh Lake is located in Swift County. The original construction of the Marsh Lake Dam was intended to serve as a flood damage reduction measure and to provide a recreational feature to the region by creating a static pool on the river. The intended flood damage reduction benefits provided by the Marsh Lake Dam were minor due to effectiveness of the downstream Lac qui Parle Dam. Since the time of impoundment, Marsh Lake has undergone significant degradation of aquatic habitat due to stressors including high sediment and nutrient loading, a fixed crest dam that prevents low seasonal water levels, high turbidity from wind-driven sediment resuspension, and abundant common carp that increase turbidity and consume submersed aquatic vegetation and macroinvertebrates. Degradation of the Marsh Lake aquatic ecosystem limited habitat suitability for many species of fish and wildlife. The overall habitat conditions were poor with turbid water conditions. Concerns by stakeholders over the habitat conditions eventually resulted in the Marsh Lake Ecosystem Restoration Project with a primary goal of improving fish and wildlife habitat by returning the Marsh Lake to a less degraded and more natural condition with snatural functions and processes.  Major project features include construction of a drawdown water control structure, restoring the Pomme de Terre River to its original channel, modifying the existing low-head dam into a notched weir/rock arch rapids fishway, and construction of one mile of new roadway/earthen dike. The project also restores 1.3 miles of natural stream habitat and provides complete fish passage from the Minnesota River into Marsh Lake.  . The goal of the components listed above is to partially or fully reestablish the attributes of a naturally functioning and self-regulating system. The expected outcomes of the Marsh Lake project are to: (1) reduce sediment loading to Marsh Lake; (2) restore natural fluctuations to the hydrologic regime of Marsh Lake; (3) restore geomorphic and floodplain processes to the Pomme de Terre River; (4) reduce sediment resuspension within Marsh Lake; (5) increase extent, diversity, and abundance of emergent and submersed aquatic plant growth in Marsh Lake; (6) increase the availability of waterfowl and native fish habitat; (7) restore aquatic habitat connectivity between Marsh Lake, the Pomme de Terre River, and Lac qui Parle Lake; (8) reduce the abundance of aquatic invasive fish species in Marsh Lake; and (9) increase diversity and abundance of native fishes within Marsh Lake and the Pomme de Terre River. This project is designed to restore a more natural and variable hydrologic regime which is important to restoring freshwater aquatic ecosystems within Marsh Lake. On a river floodplain lake like Marsh Lake, a more natural hydrologic regime includes lower lake levels in some years to provide conditions conducive for aquatic vegetation to establish. In the event the goals in the Marsh Lake Ecosystem Restoration Plan are not achieved through the passive water control structure (i.e., fishway), a water level drawdown structure has been incorporated into the project where water levels could be drawn down according to recommendations and implementation by the adaptive management team. Annual and intra-annual variations in water levels are extremely important to maintain ecosystem functions in these shallow water systems. In other areas, (e.g., the pools in the Upper Mississippi River), variability in water levels has resulted in increased extent, diversity, and abundance of aquatic vegetation, increased food for waterfowl, and improved water quality conditions. The DNR Section of Wildlife has completed other projects to enhance habitat and water quality conditions within shallow lake systems through active water level drawdowns. A clear water system with more aquatic plants would favor native fishes over the non-native Common carp, as well as favor many other native plant and wildlife species. The proposed project will provide habitat improvement and improve water quality conditions in Marsh Lake. This restoration of ecosystem functions would improve fish and wildlife habitat, water quality, and provide more public use opportunities. Specific beneficiaries include sport anglers, waterfowl hunters, wildlife viewers, and downstream users who benefit from increased water quality downstream through the Minnesota River.  Water quality benefits will result from the completed work and from the future management that is now possible. Rerouting of the Pomme de Terre into a meandering channel with adjacent floodplain habitat can provide some limited ability for sediment reduction as it flows into the Minnesota River. Significant water quality benefits will result from the current ongoing drawdown of Marsh Lake, along with any future drawdowns. Past experience with drawdowns of shallow lakes shows that the bottom-sediment consolidation and increased submergent vegetation provide significant water quality benefits both in the shallow lake and in downstream waters. .  Note that the ""Performance Monitoring and Adaptive Management Plan"" is attached to this Final Report and details the extensive monitoring that will be conducted on this project to determine progress towards goals. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources will be responsible for all active water level management, with consultation provided by an Adaptive Management Team that will include members from the Minnesota DNR, US Army Corps of Engineers, US Fish and Wildlife Service and Upper Minnesota River Watershed District. A Citizen Advisory Committee has also been formed to help guide future operations and to provide better communication.

A list of proposed land acquisitions and permanent conservation easements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan.",,"Metro Big Rivers projects improved habitat values for wildlife and SGCN, including birds using the Mississippi River migratory corridor, pollinators, wildlife, and an array of rare and endangered species. FMR converted crop field to diverse prairie and restored forest at two sites on the Mississippi and Elk Rivers in Sherburne County. The restoration provides critical habitat for resident and migrant birds (including five SGCNs surveyed post-restoration), native pollinators, and mammals. The sites are partially located in the high potential zone for Rusty Patched bumblebee. Post-restoration surveys documented increases in pollinator abundance and diversity. GRG worked on public conservation lands to improve habitat values for wildlife and SGCN, including birds using the Mississippi River migratory corridor and pollinators. Work restored and enhanced riverine, forest, oak savanna, prairie, and wetland habitat at seven conservation sites. MLT prevented fragmentation around lakes experiencing development pressure (Pickerel and Fish Lakes), as well as areas of biological significance (Medvecky Woods). MLT conservation easements also protected two miles of shoreline and associated riparian habitat on Pickerel, Fish, and Oak Lakes. Over six bird species designated as SGCN have been identified on the Oak Lake conservation easement alone. MVT acquired lands identified through the USFWS Comprehensive Conservation Plan, which prioritizes lands for high biodiversity, connectivity, and ability to preserve habitat for SGCN. MVT?s acquisition protected oak savanna, remnant prairie, oak basswood forest and seasonal ephemeral wetlands. A bioblitz identified more than 200 species, including the endangered Henslow?s sparrow, bloodroot, pasqueflower, kittentail (state threatened species), buffalo bean, bergamot, common milkweed, whorled milkweed, green milkweed and bur oak. Restoration created habitat for grassland and savanna-dependent birds, other wildlife and pollinators, including the endangered Rusty Patched bumble bee and monarch. TPL acquired land prioritized in Minnesota?s Wildlife Action Plan (WAP) due to its high biodiversity significance, connectivity to existing public lands, and ability to preserve habitat for SGCN. Acquisition for the Janet Johnson Memorial WMA protected two habitat types identified within the WAP?s St. Croix River Watershed Conservation Focus Area and key wildlife habitat utilized by 67 listed SGCN within the Anoka Sand Plain ecological subsection.","A total of 1,199 acres were affected: 241 Restored, 145 in Fee Title, 194 in Easements, 619 in Enhance.",1962900,"City of Elk River, City of Elk River, FMR, Greening, IWLA, SWWD, Dakota County, MCWD, Landowner donated value, MCWD, St. Louis Park, MVT - Private, Private funds, SWWD, South Washington Watershed District, Vail Resorts, Various state and local and private funds",3913500,48300,,0.59,"MN Valley National Wildlife Refuge Trust Inc; Friends of the Mississippi River, Great River Greening, MN Land Trust, Trust for Public Land","Non-Profit Business/Entity","The Metro Big Rivers (MBR) partners successfully completed their work with the Phase 7 / ML2016 OHF appropriation.

Houlton Conservation Area and add the adjacent Bailey Point Nature Preserve to its work under this grant. Great River Greening (GRG) concluded its restoration and enhancement work as of June 30, 2021. Through this grant, GRG restored 4 acres and enhanced 619 acres of habitat (623 acres total) at 7 sites in the metro region, slightly exceeding its original goal. The project sites were Izaak Walton League Minnesota Valley Gateway, Lebanon Hills Regional Park Phase 1, Lilydale Bluffs, Minnehaha Creek Greenway, Pond Dakota Mission, Rum River Regional Park & Cedar Creek Conservation Area, and Trout Brook Afton Phase 1 (5 are detailed in the attachment). Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) concluded its land protection work associated with this grant in June 2019. MLT protected 3 sites under conservation easement and exceeded its projected goals for the grant, protecting 194 acres (relative to the 100 acres proposed) and 2.18 miles of shoreline. MLT leveraged $1,055,000 in landowner donations of easement value through this grant. MLT easement projects completed in this phase are: ?Medvecky Woods (Baker) - An 80-acre property protecting high-quality oak-maple-basswood forest, tamarack swamp, and hardwood swamp. The property lies within the Medvecky Woods Site of Outstanding Biodiversity Significance and adjacent to Cedar Creek Natural History Area and conservation easements held by the Land Trust. ?Pickerel Lake (Imholte) - This 42-acre property is dominated by oak forest and lies along the shorelines of Pickerel and Fish Lakes. The property lies adjacent to another conservation easement held by the Land Trust. ?Oak Lake (Phyllis Wheatly Community Center) - This 83-acre property (72 acres funded through this grant) contains a DNR-designated Big Woods Heritage Forest and nearly 1.5 miles of shoreline on Oak Lake. The conservation easement forever protects high quality habitat within Camp Katherine Parsons, one of the nation?s earliest camps focused on serving the needs of African-American youth. Minnesota Valley Trust (MVT) completed its work under this grant as of December 31, 2022. With about half of the grant, MVT protected through fee title acquisition 26 acres of a high-priority 77-acre parcel for the Rapids Lake Unit of the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. The balance of the site was acquired with the MBR 6 / ML 2015 grant and $794,462 in other, private funds. MVT then used the balance of the MBR 7 grant to complete the initial habitat restoration of 40 acres of the acquired parcel, converting the building site and crop field to prairie and wetland. Simultaneously, MN Land Trust conducted initial restoration of 35 acres of degraded oak savanna on the site through MBR 6 / ML 2015. Follow-up treatments to maintain and enhance the restored 77 acres will be completed by MVT and USFWS under the MBR 9 / ML2019 grant.

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.

10007385,"Minnesota Small Craft Project",2017,8196,,,"Available upon request. Contact grants@mnhs.org","Drawing upon nautical archaeological and historical knowledge based on previous fieldwork and research conducted by Minnesota's only underwater/maritime archaeologists and maritime historians, MHM's documentation and 3D scanning of the 5 boats chosen for the Minnesota Small Craft Project (MSC) exceeded expectations. The 5 boats were chosen because they were Minnesota-built, rare, and relatively unknown in the maritime history of the state. The maritime historical research conducted by MHM in association with the MSC Project revealed the true rarity of the 5 watercraft documented. The great amount of historical documentation put together to provide context to these 5 Minnesota Watercraft, as a measurable long-term outcome, is invaluable for understanding Minnesota's maritime history. Further, all the research is available for future use during the documentation of underwater archaeological sites wrecks to assist in submerged cultural resources identification. Additionally, as more examples of the watercraft produced by these 5 companies come to light, the information provided in the MSC Report can assist boat owners and museum professionals concerning the history and care of the boats. When the project was began, MHM was aware of 2 Ramaley Boat Company's Fisherman's Friend Row Boats (FFRB) in existence on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka and that is still the case. Similarly, the Indian Trading Post Boat Works Outboard Motor Boat (IOMB) is a one of a kind survivor, but the smaller Wooden Outboard Utility Wreck (21-HE-491) on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka is comparable. The Joseph Dingle Boat Works Outboard Motor Boat (DOMB) represents one of the most respected late 19th and early 20th Century boat builders not only in Minnesota, but the United States. MHM was aware of a handful of Dingle-built watercraft that survive and that were known in the historical record. However, after conducting a rigorous documents search for more Dingle boats, MHM was astonished by the great number of boats produced by Dingle on special order as well as the great number of stock models sold to the City of St. Paul, for example. The diversity of watercraft styles and designs produced by Dingle over the decades attests to the versatility and talent of the firm's craftsmen. Today, most Minnesotans - much less wooden boat historians and enthusiasts - have no knowledge of the Joseph Dingle Boat Works, where it was located, or the types of boats designed and built on the Mississippi River in St. Paul for 69 years. Further, fast sailboats and fast auto boats designed by Joseph Dingle were well-known by racers from the 1880s into the 1920s, an incredible amount of time to produce competitive watercraft, particularly for such a small family-owned and operated boatyard. The Cokato Boat Works produced quality wooden boats, but as a family-owned and small boat company, sadly it was doomed to fail because of competition from large manufacturers of aluminum and fiberglass boats produced more quickly and much more cheaply. The survival of the Cokato Boat Works Outboard Motor Boat (COMB) and 2 other examples is because of the low number of boats produced by the company is significant for Minnesota maritime history and small craft studies. To contrast, the department store nature of Herter's, Inc. and the offerings of watercraft through catalog sales stands out from the other 4 companies in terms of business practice and notoriety. Herter's was known around the country as a sporting goods superstore and was widely known for their duck decoys and ammunition. Today, Herter's fiberglass runabouts with fins are sought after and collectible, much more than Herter's Model St. Lawrence (HSL) held in the MNHS collection. The plain utilitarian design of the HSL ensures that less of this type will survive on the water and as collectible watercraft. Therefore, while many Minnesotans recognize the Herter's brand, they are not aware of the watercraft produced by the company, the uniqueness of their marketing scheme, the chrome fiberglass construction material, and its natural translucence. Beyond the actual scanning and documentation of the 5 boats during the MSC Project, another of MHM's goal was to determine the usefulness of the inexpensive scanning technology chosen for the work, along with the quality of its output. MHM's maritime historians contend the MSC Project pushed the limits of the iSense scanning device. It can and will scan objects like small boats, scanning the entire watercraft at one time can cause a loss of resolution and the quality of the scans deceases. Therefore, scanning smaller areas and combining the files in software is doable but can cause differences the lightness or darkness of certain areas and shadowing becomes more of a problem. MHM tried to solve this problem with additional lighting, but again, shadows and irregularities were a problem. Also, scanners do not work well when recording shiny objects; the varnish on the COMB was a big problem causing glare and reflections. The iSense excelled in scanning details of individual attributes of the boats; this aspect of the technology makes the system suited for conservation and restoration even the 3D printing of attributes for aesthetic reasons. Regardless of the limitations of the inexpensive iSense scanner combined with a 4th Generation iPad, MHM will continue to use the technology during projects when appropriate. MHM's archaeologists are eager to use the system on wrecks in the Headwaters Mississippi River, sites that are exposed during low water conditions. When in shade, the Andy Gibson Wreck Site and the Red Mill Wreck Site are great candidates for spot-scanning of certain areas and will greatly assist the recording of archaeological features. MHM's short term goal of informing Minnesotans of the on-going MSC Project through social media has been successful, particularly through FaceBook posts that were shared to thousands of people not one negative comment has been received. MHM is eager to document more Minnesota-built small craft held in museums and historical societies, particularly those boats that represent our State's long and diverse boat-building history. It is hoped the Minnesotans will access the MSC Project Report and contact MHM with knowledge of other small craft that deserve scholarly attention. Also, MHM contends the report will be used as a guide through the scans, photographs, measurements, and descriptions of the boats - to identify boats now housed in old barns and backyards. There are more Ramaley, Dingle, and Herter's boats out there being ignored and with great optimism, MHM hopes there are more Trading Post and Cokato watercraft that survive as well.",,119,"Available upon request.

10007386,"Minnesota Suburban Lakes Nautical Archaeology Project: Anomaly Assessment",2017,9989,,,"Available upon request. Contact grants@mnhs.org","MHM short and intermediate term goals for this project were met in every measurable way. MHM's primary goals for the Minnesota Suburban Lakes Nautical Archaeology Project: Anomaly Assessment (MSLNA:AA) Project, a Phase 1 archaeological reconnaissance survey, was to determine the nature of specific anomalies - possible shipwrecks & other submerged sites-located during the Minnesota Suburban Lakes Survey Project (MSLS) conducted in 2016 & the Lake Waconia Survey Project (LWS) in 2012. The MSLNA-AA Project produced interesting and significant results investigating 29 anomalies in 3 lakes in 3 counties. MHM identified 11 wrecks, 3 maritime sites or objects, 2 other sites, and 1 otherobject in Lake Waconia, Lake Pulaski, and Prior Lake. Of the 11 wrecks, MHM acquired Minnesota Archaeological Site Numbers for 3 of them; 2 in Prior Lake and 1 in Lake Pulaski. Two of these wrecks are small wooden boats, similar in construction and design to 15 wrecks identified by MHM in Lake Minnetonka. Also, the Glasspar G-3 Ski boat Wreck, Fiberglass Hydroplane Wreck, Royal American Surfmaster 15 Wreck, and the Capsized Starcraft Wreck are the first of their manufacture to be identified on the bottom of any Minnesota lake. Additionally, visibility was much better in Lake Waconia and Lower Prior Lake than was anticipated, so the product output exceeded expectations due to water clarity - better video was produced and wreck attributes could be seen very clearly. As more data is accumulated and additional nautical archaeological sites identified and analyzed, to date submerged cultural resources from 9 suburban lakes can be compared and contrasted. Attributes noted in certain wrecks may be indicative of a particular boat builder or at least assigned to a particular type or time period. Further, to date MHM has identified 4 pontoon boat wrecks in 3 lakes; of these sites, 3 of them are capsized (Lake Pulaski, Lake Minnetonka) and 1 is upright (Lake Waconia). The wrecks and sites identified by MHM during the project represent the first submerged cultural resources recognized archaeologically in these particular bodies of water. The work completed during this project proves multi-lake diving projects are feasible and can be very successful. MHM continues to re-examine recorded sonar footage from completed remote sensing surveys. Targeted re-scanning has occurred in several lakes using knowledge gained from the comparison of anomalies that have proven to be wrecks or other submerged cultural resources in past projects. With improved technology, future scanning projects will produce clearer data. The results of the MSLNA-AA Project summarized above is connected to all the work that came before and will come after its completion. At this point, watercraft located in Minnesota's suburban lakes represent nearly 1,000 years of Minnesota's maritime history and nautical archaeology. In the historic period, the known wrecks represented in these lakes span over 140 years of local maritime culture. It is clear even through this Phase 1 pre-disturbance nautical archaeological investigation that the types of sites that exist in Minnesota's suburban lakes documented to date are diverse, archaeologically and historically significant, and worthy of great attention now and well into the future. Additionally, MHM's vetting of volunteer divers choosing only ethical, responsible people who understand our Mission to locate, document, preserve, and conserve Minnesota's finite submerged cultural resources within a not-for-profit paradigm led to a productive and honest working environment in the field. Fundamentally, MHM conducted sound nautical and maritime archaeology based on meaningful research plans created because of decades of underwater archaeological experience, strong maritime historical research that produced trustworthy data for analysis and future use, and we chose a group of trustworthy volunteers to assist us with the fulfillment of this project's goals.",,473,"Available upon request.

10007387,"Minnesota Suburban Lakes Survey Project",2017,9952,,,"Available upon request. Contact grants@mnhs.org","MHM short term goal for this project were exceeded. MHM's primary goal for the MSLS Project, a set of 6 pre-disturbance Phase 1 underwater archaeological side and down imaging sonar surveys, was to record sonar footage of each of the lakes and analyze the data. The quality of the sonar images recorded during the MSLS Project have allowed MHM to make preliminary identifications of several nautical, maritime, and underwater sites in all 6 lakes. Before the start of the project, no nautical/underwater/maritime sites have been recognized on the bottom of the lakes by the Office of the State Archaeologist. There are still no recognized sites in the 6 lakes yet because MHM cannot apply for archaeological site numbers through the OSA until dive reconnaissance has been completed and the wrecks/sites analyzed. However, the potential is high that the wrecks discerned in the sonar data are archaeological sites or have the potential to be sites in the near future. During the project, MHM identified 13 wrecks through their distinctive sonar signatures, another 22 possible wrecks, 6 poke nets, 5 boat lifts/canopies, and many other maritime and underwater sites. This information was presented to the public in 6 separate reports: Minnesota Suburban Lakes Survey Project: Lake Elmo Survey Report, Lake Johanna Survey Report, Medicine Lake Survey Report, Lake Pulaski Survey Report, Lake Sylvia Survey Report, and the Prior Lake Survey Report. The sonar images of the 13 wrecks range from simple boat shapes to detailed hull attributes evident. Using MHM's knowledge from previous SCUBA reconnaissance projects, at least 5 anomalies are boat lifts, boat canopies, or boat life/canopy combinations. This type of dock infrastructure often ends up on the bottom of lakes in Minnesota due to high winds and they have distinctive sonar signatures. The poke nets in Prior Lake, Medicine Lake, Lake Sylvia, and Lake Johanna are significant to Minnesota maritime and underwater archaeology, maritime history, and fishing history. The poke nets or at least poke net frames are hundreds of feet long each. Poke nets hang on poles under water and snag fish, and are well known in Scotland where they are placed in tidal zones. It is unknown who erected the nets in each lake at this time, or when they were constructed. However, they are in somewhat deep water, so they may have put together during the severe 1930s drought. MHM's short term plan to educate the general public through social media, public exhibitions, and presentations has met with success - including 2 archaeology fairs encompassing 3 days, 2 public speaking engagements in December 2016 and January 2017, and engagements on FaceBook that have reached hundreds of people. MHM's followers have learned about the impressive maritime history of Minnesota particularly the 6 lakes studied during this project - that MHM is continually uncovering. The submerged cultural resources on the bottom of these 6 suburban lakes were complete unknowns prior to the commencement of the MSLS Project. Now, MHM has confirmed the existence of several dozen sites; future work is now necessary to confirm or disprove hypotheses about the sites, and answer archaeological questions MHM will formulate in in future projects. An online dialog about the significance and rarity of Minnesota's protected nautical, maritime, and underwater cultural resources is on-going and will continue. During the MSLS Project, MHM exceeded expectations and produced substantial and meaningful results from this project due to sound fieldwork planning, solid methodology employed during the fieldwork that provided good data, and the utilization of knowledge gained from MHM's other remote sensing surveys. MHM's Mission to locate, document, preserve, conserve, and analyze Minnesota's finite submerged cultural resources within a not-for-profit paradigm was served by the completion of the MSLS Project.

Participants now have access to a digital conference book and resources that increase engagement with the program. • Both 2017-2018 YIG conferences had a 24 hour “YIG Sampler.” Model Assembly served two groups (two adults, six students) and Model UN served three groups (four adults, five students).

",,"Forest land ownership changes within recent years, primarily within the industrial forest ownerships, are occurring as the timber industry restructures and looks to obtain value from their land through real estate sales and recreational leases.  These sales can result in forest fragmentation or even outright conversion of forest lands, impact public recreational access including recreational trail routes, affect forest management access by public agencies across the impacted lands, degrade wildlife habitat and decrease the use of sustainable forestry practices. The current project has targeted two properties: 1) an industrial ownership located in northeastern Minnesota whose property adjoins and is commingled with thousands of acres of other public forests including those owned and managed by the state, Lake County and the Superior National Forest; and 2) a large privately owned publicly accessible property with lake shoreland and other riparian areas adjacent to already permanently conserved easement property located in an area of high forest conversion threat in Crow Wing County. LSOHC appropriations target priority projects as determined by the scoring criteria developed in consultation with the Minnesota Forests for the Future Advisory Committee (stakeholder group).  Projects may need to be scaled back or phased to accommodate the available funding.  Each of the two projects included in this report were located within program priority areas as identified by a GIS model that integrates recreational, ecological and economic data. These projects addressed forest fragmentation, habitat degradation, recreational and management access and sustainable forestry through perpetual conservation easements and fee acquisition that will protect the forest and wetland habitats in perpetuity, restrict forest parcelization and development, provide for public recreational access and public management access and promote sustainable forest management practices.

We met our target for acres of enhanced habitat, by adapting to challenging conditions caused by the pandemic.","We enhanced habitat on seven different streams. The scope of work varied to match the site conditions, watershed characteristics, and address the specific population limiting factors. Severely degraded or unstable stream sections received comprehensive, large-scale habitat enhancements to restore stream function and in-stream trout habitat. These included intensive projects on Keene Creek in Duluth, West Indian Creek near Plainview, and Wisel Creek south of Rushford. These projects required extensive grading and modification of stream channel patterns to create habitat-filled, stable channels and restored floodplains. The increased pool habitat created on Keene Creek is crucial to survival of native brook trout populations in northern Minnesota during critical low-water periods in late summer and winter. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted labor availability and prevented implementation of smaller scale projects around the state. However, we adapted and pivoted to other good habitat enhancement opportunities that could be completed with less DNR involvement and without crews using hand labor. Most of these opportunities were in southeast Minnesota. In southeast Minnesota, we completed projects along approximately 6 miles of Diamond Creek, East Indian Creek and Trout Run Creek. These project sites had very cold water temperatures and decent in-stream habitat but suffered from the negative effects of dense corridors of buckthorn, boxelder and other invasives. Here significant habitat gains were realized by removing these invasive trees and shrubs, which do a poor job holding streambanks. We removed invasive trees and shrubs and seeded corridors with grasses and forbs. This allowed native grasses and forbs, which better secure soils, to become reestablished and let beneficial sunlight reach the stream beds and boost stream productivity.

10007389,"Minnetonka Historical Society: Collections Management Policy & Procedures",2017,3800,,,"Available upon request. Contact grants@mnhs.org","This project provided the Minnetonka Historical Society (MHS) with two essential tools needed for a collecting institution. First, the policy outlined a set of procedures to monitor collections related activities and a reference guide for staff and volunteers, providing uniformity and consistency even as volunteers and board members change. Second, it will assist MHS in maintaining its collections records. The policy and procedures formalize MHS's collecting efforts, and assures future donors and the public that there is a plan in place to care for their collections in perpetuity. The Minnetonka Historical Society's (MHS) goal for the collections management project was to develop a comprehensive Collections Management Policy. Museology created a specific, realistic, and usable Collections Management Policy and Procedures (CMP) that will influence the day-to-day handling of MHS's collections. This tool establishes responsibility for collections management on both the policy-making level and daily implementation level, museum ethics and legal aspects of collecting, acquisition and accessioning, deaccessioning and disposal, basic collections care and preservation, intellectual control of the collections, inventory procedure, risk management and security, access to and use of collections, incoming and outgoing loans, and intellectual property rights. The policy adheres to the American Alliance of Museums Code of Ethics and the American Association of State and Local History Statement of Professional Standards and Ethics. The CMP also includes useful worksheets and forms for managing collections. Forms include a temporary custody receipt, deed of gift, incoming and outgoing loans, accession and loan ledgers, condition report, inventory and catalog worksheets, and deaccessioning documentation. This project produced the expected results, and will provide a launchpad for other collections-based activities. For example, MHS plans to apply for funding for an inventory gain intellectual control of its collection, as well as the purchase of PastPerfect software and related hardware. Future goals include an inventory of the entire collection and upgrades to collections storage that meets museum standards through purchase of shelving, boxes, folders, and other supplies. These projects will fulfill two of the long-term goals of the project. This project was considered successfully complete after the consultant submitted to MHS a clear, written Collections Management Policy and Procedures and provided training to MHS volunteers and board members.The project was evaluated through qualitative analysis, using factors such as compliance with applicable standards, developing appropriate policy and procedures for the MHS collection, ability to complete the project on time and on budget, and anecdotal evidence of understanding among participants in training.",,,"Available upon request.

This accomplishment exceeded the appropriation goal by 178%. Utilizing fee-title acquisition and RIM conservation easements adjacent to public land, large habitat protection complexes were established, including one complex in Crow Wing County that protected over 9 contiguous miles along the Mississippi River. This Project is a partnership of the Mississippi Headwaters Board, The Trust for Public Land, and BWSR assisted by 7 Headwaters SWCDs. ",,"Public lands adjacent to the Mississippi River were increasingly in danger of losing habitat connectivity as private lands were under more development  pressure potentially causing fragmentation of forests and critical upland and shoreland habitats.  Creating or enlarging permanently protected upland habitat complexes would insure that game and non-game wildlife have a secure place to raise their young, seek shelter and food, and move around without disturbance and protect water quality as a necessary fish habitat while at the same time maintaining and opening up new opportunities for public recreation.    Fee-title acquisition with final public ownership (either the DNR or a headwaters' county) and RIM conservation easements were the tools used in strategic locations to create or expand permanently protected habitat corridors. (see the answers to questions below for the scientific methodology used to select priority parcels for land conservation). The targeted geography for the project was the minor watershed corridor of the first 400 miles of the Mississippi River, its major tributaries, and headwaters lakes.   Project partners (MHB, TPL, and BWSR) defined initial priorities for the project that guided the implementation of this Phase 1 (ML16) and subsequent phases for the Mississippi Headwaters Habitat Corridor Project.  (1) The acquired parcels, in fee-title or easement, were targeted towards the Mississippi River corridor to protect access to public lands and provide multiple benefits for hunting, fishing, and outdoor heritage experiences.  (2) Acquisition priorities were to be focused on parcels that were adjacent to existing County, State, or Federal lands along the Mississippi River headwaters corridor to increase habitat and corridor connectivity; and (3) Prospective parcels were to be ranked according to their habitat quality, public access, location, size, and supporting conservation plans by a Technical Committee comprised of the project partners and other public agency and private conservation entities to insure all parcels selected meet program criteria.  The completion of Phase 1 resulted in the permanent protection of 1,478 acres and 11 miles of shoreland achieved through 11 RIM conservation easements with private landowners, a 331-acre addition to a state forest, a 160-acre addition to a county forest, and the creation of a new 234-acre WMA with over two miles of shoreland. In Crow Wing County alone, the combination of fee-title acquisition and several RIM easements adjacent to existing public land created a 9 mile contiguous permanently protected wildlife corridor along the Mississippi River.  Exceptional support from the 8 Headwater’s county boards was a critical component of this Phase 1’s success as trust was built around common heritage and conservation goals.  Phase 2 (ML 17) and Phase 3 (ML18) are nearing completion with all money appropriated for acquisition dedicated to landowner projects that are completed or in process.  The appropriation of Phase 4 (ML 20), which began several months ago, is already 40% committed to projects.   The Headwaters Habitat Corridor Project partners thank LSOHC and the legislature for their support of this ML 16 appropriation’s initial vision of protecting the “Mighty Mississippi” river for the benefit of current and future generations.

All paperwork has been digitized, maps of the site created, photographs logged, artifacts identified and dated (when possible). Two types of analyses are incomplete, and those are the specialized analysis of the animal remains and the macrobotanical analysis of the flotation samples recovered from the features. These specialized analyses require a more long-term research program. We hope that these analyses will be finalized within the next year. The long-term goal of this project, publication and preservation, is ongoing. This is mostly due to the fact that the excavations provided little definite information on the historical context.

This alternative to traditional culverts has great potential to improve watershed health and resiliency. Increase our outreach efforts including a paper accepted at the Transportation Resilience International 2019 Conference in Washington D.C.   Other outreach and education: Continue educational and outreach efforts to help water managers’ and other stakeholders’ understand specific aspects of watershed science including root causes of water quality problems and the potential to address them in ways that provide multiple benefits. ","Used our hydrology geomorphology and connectivity data to help local partners identify develop propose target design and/or implement at least 75 on-the-ground water quality projects in 33 major watersheds. Most involve stream channel restoration or stream bank stabilization. Identified and helped implement design or advance floodplain culverts as a solution at road/river crossings in at least 7 watersheds and presented the approach at a national conference on climate change and transportation infrastructure resilience. Worked with consulting foresters Soil & Water Conservation Districts the Board of Water & Soil Resources and others to complete landscape stewardship plans with forestry recommendations for five major watersheds that supply drinking water to St Cloud and the Twin Cities and have completed or approved local watershed management plans. DNR collaborated with partners in these watersheds to write 223 stewardship plans covering 32 088 acres of private forestland and worked with landowners to protect 21 262 acres of working forestland via the Sustainable Forestry Incentives Act—mostly in subwatersheds considered high-priority for water quality. Participated in 21 One Watershed One Plan advisory committees providing information to aid plan development and reviewing draft plans. Updated the Lakes of Biological Significance dataset lake water quality data in the DNR Phosphorus Sensitivity Index and cost-benefit data that MPCA and LGUs use to prioritize lakes for protection.

Subject to evaluation criteria in Minnesota Rules, part 6136.0900, priority must be given to acquisition of lands that are eligible for the native prairie bank under Minnesota Statutes, section 84.96, or lands adjacent to protected native prairie. A list of proposed land acquisitions must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan and must be consistent with the priorities in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan.",,"This program?s top criterion for selecting projects is the presence of remnant native prairie. As noted above, 486 acres of remnant native prairie were permanently protected. Another important goal is protecting lands in existing complexes of habitat and protected lands were in areas identified as a Prairie Core or Corridor in the MN Prairie Plan. We also target lands with high-quality habitat and the rare species this habitat supports. Data from the Minnesota Biological Survey identified nearly 2/3 of the protected acres as having significant biodiversity. These lands support a wide range of prairie species of concern and the vegetative communities that support them, including wet, mesic, and dry hill prairies, wet seepage prairies, calcareous fens, and migratory stopover habitats for water birds. Species benefited by the protected parcels include Blanding's turtles, the creek heelsplitter mussel, nesting upland sandpipers, small white lady?s slipper, and many others. Another highlight in this phase was the protection of multiple lengths of stream that are designated critical habitat for the federally endangered Topeka shiner.","A total of 910 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 482 in Fee Title, 428 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",516600,"PF-USFWS, TNC and USFWS",2660600,52300,,1.07,"The Nature Conservancy w/USFWS ","Non-Profit Business/Entity","The acquisition work for this phase has been completed.

Over the life of the grant we protected 910 acres (124% of the goal), 482 acres in fee title and 428 acres in conservation easements. The goal for native prairie acres for this phase was 410 acres. We protected a total of 456 native prairie acres (111% of the goal): 220 native prairie acres in fee title and 256 native prairie acres in easements. ","The Council's 25-Year Framework identifies protecting Minnesota's remaining native prairies as a critical priority. The Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan (Prairie Plan) describes the importance of preserving the cores/corridors/complexes in areas with the greatest opportunities for long-term conservation of these prairies. The Northern Tallgrass Prairie National Wildlife Refuge (NTP NWR) Land Acquisition program shares these goals. This program is a cooperative, multi-year effort of The Nature Conservancy and the US Fish and Wildlife Service to preserve and protect our remaining prairies and the surrounding habitat that buffers them. With Outdoor Heritage Fund support, this partnership is working together to advance these goals. This program also includes a relatively small restoration/enhancement component of the acres acquired. While the prioritization criteria favor parcels that are in good condition, because of the nature of parcel ownership some properties included small areas of converted or degraded lands needing grassland or wetland restoration/enhancement. This work is completed only on parcels acquired with this funding, as needed to get these properties into a sustainable condition for inclusion into the NTP NWR and future management. These acres are not reported as a separate outcome in the Output Tables in order to avoid any possible double-counting. Restoration/enhancement activity with this round of funding included grassland site preparation/seeding or interseeding/mowing, tree and/or dense vegetation removal and invasive species control on two parcels.

To accomplish this we would need to recruit 4 to 6 directors, review their productions choices, pick the plays, apply for rights, and schedule the dates. We need to be ready to produce at least 4 productions a year if the school referendum passes, or two productions if it doesn't pass. 2. We want to increase the number of concerts to 15 per year. 3. To increase our attendance to an average of 100 attendees per at theatrical performances and 100 attendees per concerts. We will accomplish this with a variety of offerings of high quality entertainment. One thing that our Operations Support funding has allowed us to do is keep better track of our impact in the community. We now have an established baseline for theater usage based upon 2014 and 2015 numbers. We have used these numbers to set realistic and achievable goals for 2016-2017. Our goals are numerical and we will easily be able to evaluate whether or not we have reached them by keeping track of attendance and participation at events and by comparing 2016-2017 numbers with records from 2014-2015.","1) We put on 3 out of 4 planned productions since the school was delayed in moving out. Originally, we had planned to install the new LED lights in September and have a November production. Since the school was using the facility we only had time to install the lights. 2) Fifteen concerts per year has proven to be an unrealistic goal. We only had two concerts. Our intention was to have concerts on the lower stage on weekends when the productions were still in rehearsal, closing off the upper stage that would have the set in construction. Our problem is that most bands require both levels of the stage. 3) In 2016 we averaged 100 attendees per theatrical performance with our summer productions. In 2017 our June play Red, White and Tuna averaged less than 30 and our August play 3 Murders and it’s only Monday averaged 70. In February of 2017 we averaged only 40 per night.

Continue to expand electronic media activity by increasing website hits, Facebook fans by 100% in each of the next two performing arts seasons 3. Increase average non-student audience size by 15% through the methods in Goal 2 in by the end of the second performing arts season. Goal 1 Method and Evaluation: At two performances in the season, collect audience surveys; use an online survey to capture input from potential attendees; mail 200 surveys to random residents within a 25-mile radius; dedicate discussion time with performing arts director, board and membership on audience development. Results of feedback will be compiled, shared with board and membership and audience and will inform future programming. Goal 2 Method and Evaluation: Electronic media activity will be assessed at the beginning and end of the grant period. Between those two times of measurement, there will be a consistent effort to communicate via multiple electronic methods to reach potential audiences. More posts, more fans, more new material on the website, more time with the Dawson-Boyd Arts Association presence scrolling through the eyes of potential audience members! Goal 3 Method and Evaluation: When tickets are purchased, there is always an opportunity to ask, How did you hear about the concert?"" Phone sales, web sales and box office window sales will all provide data and when possible, will include this same question while we are pursuing a new audience segment. We can even ask from stage for a show of hands!""","As mentioned in the Year One Interim report, reduced support from the school district for the performing arts director position had a huge impact on the organization's focus in Year Two of the grant period. Additionally, the performing arts director's husband died midway through the season, after a lengthy illness. Understandably, this had an enormous impact on the board members' engagement [increased] and the director's ability to facilitate grant goals [decreased]. As a result of this stressful time in the organization's history, however, the board of directors is more cohesive, involved and focused - because of the need to ""step up"" during the difficult times in the director's personal life in the last few years AND because of the transition of a board that holds the responsibility of sharing in the funding for the director position. It would have been impossible to predict these changes in board maturity and growth two years ago, but happily, there is renewed energy in the governance of DBAA. We have seen increased engagement of board members: board meeting attendance, concert attendance and participation in planning for programming and for the annual fundraiser.

A third goal is to further develop the Spoon Gathering and seek the development of other community arts events. Milan Village Arts School has created a unique woodworking event that has reignited the interest in Spoon Carving in both the US, Canada and Europe. We plan to learn from the process and develop similar arts festivals. Class evaluation is made by the number of classes successfully run, the total number of students registered and student feedback. The Artist's Studio program is evaluated through the number of studios, the students attending and student feedback. The success of the Spoon Gathering is evaluated through attendee numbers and student feedback.","1) Class numbers have been stable over the last year rather than increasing by 25%. The school lost several key classes over the last 12 months and is looking for replacement instructors. 2) An expansion of artist studios: The school currently has 4 studios: Silversmithing, Framing, Weaving, and Woodworking. All 4 are solid, well equipped, operational, and well patronized. 3) The seed for a new Youth Scholarship Program was initiated in 2017. In 2018, MVAS will launch a new Youth Scholarship Program for teenagers. Students will be able to either apply for tuition for a particular class or join a special youth art class. Tuition will be fully funded. The seed money came from the Fondell Family and money donated in Dan Fondell's name. Dan was a long term board member who passed away in late 2017. The school currently has $2,700 in the fund. 4) Along with the NeDA facility in St. Paul, MVAS will hold classes in a new second facility in St. Paul - http://www.schafferfineartservices.com. 5) A new event has been put on the back burner due to an expanded Spoon Gathering. Additionally, the school's membership has grown substantially during 2017 to approx. 200. As many of these memberships are Household memberships, the number of actual supporters is much greater. The expanded membership has been the result of a year end membership/donation drive. Available funds were moved upstairs to complete work on the original building.

From editing audio files, to creating a timeline, to embedding clips into open source platforms - the workshop provided ample time to investigate the platforms, ask questions, and test out options. I came away with a variety of ideas to develop online exhibits; work with our CAPS students to increase their skills and benefit the SCHS; add content to our school programs; and brought back more options to utilize our current oral histories. Throughout the conference I noticed that OHMS was a topic of conversation both in and out of sessions. Although I was unable to attend the OHMS workshop on Sunday, I am confident that the contacts I made during the conference will provide me with a pool of resources to call upon when navigating OHMS on my own.

It's important to continue building upon this foundation to accomplish the goal of increasing participation in outdoor recreation. , A vendor was selected after an RFP process in FY10 and initial development and programming of the standalone Flash-based kids’ site has concluded. The site was in beta testing during the period of 01/01/11-06/30/11 and is expected to launch on the public DNR website during winter 2011. After the new site has been publicly announced we will begin measuring page views and other metrics to track its ongoing success., Twenty seven state parks have standardized virtual tours either posted or ready to post to the division’s website. Eight state parks have virtual tours currently under contract. ",,,,,,,,,,"The Division of Parks and Trails is engaged in critical work to connect people to the outdoors. As part of the work in this project area, the new touch-screen kiosk project will increase awareness about outdoor recreation opportunities at Minnesota state parks and trails among underrepresented groups by creating and installing accessible, touch-screen kiosks with information in multiple languages, in high-traffic, family-oriented locations. Connection plans deliver Minnesota State Parks and Trails' messages to new audiences. The Division of Parks and Trails establishes partnerships to maximize resources in building participation in outdoor recreation. The kids' interactive website creates interactive, age-appropriate content for children 5-11 years old, motivating children to get outdoors. The virtual tours project provides web visitors with an immersive experience, allowing them to view and hear park, trail, and water trail scenes from 360 degrees or video snippets...the next best thing to actually being there. ","The Division of Parks and Trails is working to increase awareness about outdoor recreation opportunities among groups currently underrepresented at state parks and trails (families with young children, people with disabilities, people whose primary language is not English). Instead of waiting for them to come to us for information (by visiting, calling or going to our website), we are going to them by placing eye-catching kiosks in high-traffic locations that they frequent. By enhancing our children's programming on the website, we are encouraging youth to develop a lifelong interest in and stewardship for state parks and state trails. (It's hard to say no to a child who asks to go to a park or to go camping.) People who are new to state parks or state trails often have a difficult time selecting which to visit and may not be aware of the features that make each park unique. Online virtual tours of each location act as trip planning visual aids, helping people select which park or trail they want to visit and establishing what to expect once they arrive.

All land acquired has been enrolled into the state Wildlife Management Area (WMA) Program or the Waterfowl Production Area Program (WPA) and will be protected and managed in perpetuity by the Minnesota DNR or USFWS. These properties not only provide access and recreational opportunities for all Minnesotans, but also helps address a strong need to provide more secure nesting and brood rearing habitat for prairie chickens near existing leks. The offer to the landowner was based on fair market value as indicated in an independent appraisal. The acquired parcel helps address a backlog of willing sellers which is now helping slow the loss, degradation, and fragmentation of habitat in Minnesota. Parcels were identified jointly with the MN DNR and USFWS, ranked, and prioritized on habitat goals and feasibility. Pheasants Forever and agency staff collaborated to generate a list of parcels with landowners who had the desire to sell. These parcels ecological impact was evaluated using landscape level planning tools such as the USFWS Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET), The MN Prairie Conservation Plan and The Pheasant Action Plan among other. By utilizing these tools, we were able to focus efforts in areas where acquisitions and restorations will make the greatest impact on the landscape and thus these additional acres of WMA are very beneficial to wildlife and public recreation. Once acquired, wetlands on each parcel were restored by installing surface ditch “plugs” and or breaking subsurface tile. Some wetlands may also have had sediment removed to create proper substrates for wetland function and vegetative growth. Grasslands were restored by planting high-diversity native seed mix of grasses and forbs that are regionally appropriate to the area. As with all restoration work there are challenges that come from weather and working with private contractors, but we did not face any major issues.

A list of proposed land acquisitions must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Landlocked public properties are accessible with have increased access for land managers - We measure this outcome by the number of miles of public property line that are eliminated, the number of land locked public land acres that are opened to the public, and the number of acres of public land that are opened for year round management access. ",,46300,"Cass County ",500000,,,0.25,"Cass County","Local/Regional Government","This project protected 277 acres of forest wildlife habitat in central Minnesota through fee title acquisition of key forest tracts. The title of the acquired lands will be held in fee by Cass County without a PILT obligation. ",,"The central Minnesota region, especially areas in Cass County from Brainerd-Baxter to Walker, has and will continue to see some of the fastest population growth in the state. This growth has led to increased demands from use of this area, its natural resources and related public land base is needed to support this growth. Development of these private industrial parcels has resulted in the loss of Jack Pine Barrens in the landscape of Cass County. Industrial forest tracts held by Potlatch are currently being sold to private developers. These lands often provide access to existing public lands for resource management, are in-holdings in otherwise unfragmented landscapes, create contiguous wildlife corridors, and protect larger blocks of land especially useful for stand level management of habitat.  These key industrial forest tracts (i.e. in-holdings in large public land tracts, management access issues) are being considered or currently being offered for sale by a large industrial forest owner (Potlatch Corp) in this area. Market conditions and a willingness by this industrial forest owner to sell at this time is an opportunity that should be addressed now since it is narrow and may close at any time. The strategy is to acquire land that completes existing habitat corridors. The land acquired has existing forest access roads that have been used for management access for years. The sale of these lands to private individuals has already resulted in the loss of access for resource management on public lands and conversion from forest to agricultural use. The acquired lands were not being pursued for convenience of management.  The acquired parcels play a key role in future management plans of the Jack Pine Barrens including the role of fire as a management tool. The loss of these parcels to private ownership would have resulted in lost access and possibly loss of forest land. Management of adjacent public lands would have been limited to frozen ground conditions which eliminates management tools such as site preparation, aerial seeding and prescribed burning for Jack Pine regeneration. This type of management requires year round access to existing public lands in the Jack Pine barrens landscape as well as protecting habitat in and around the surrounding areas. The Cass County Forest Resource Management Plan directs the County to acquire land of this nature whenever possible to protect the management access. The Cass County Comprehensive plan requires no net loss of acres of public land and local unit of government input on all purchases and land sales. This project met the requirements of both plans and required stakeholder's input as part of the project. All purchases in this project were supported by both the County and Townships. The Carder 160 parcel adjoins approximately 8,500 acres public land that provides a large contiguous block of wildlife corridor and habitat. This acquisition also permanently protects over 1,200 feet of undeveloped shoreline on the Boy River. This parcels adjoins other county managed lands at the Deep Portage Reserve where a recent bird count study was completed. From Dr. Gerald Niemi’s report, “the results of the counts in 2016 reveal a diverse avifauna at Deep Portage, including five species defined by Audubon Minnesota as stewardship species in Minnesota and four species identified by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources as Species of Greatest Conservation Need”. Study results included 47 different bird species and nearly a thousand individuals were observed during a 3 day period on the one square mile plot. Niemi also reports that “Forest management as the site should be reviewed to determine how this management has facilitated or maintained such a high population of Golden-winged Warbler as well as several other species of concern in Minnesota"". This acquisition supports the habitat needs of 47 different bird species.  Likewise, the Powers 40 acquisition adjoins the same 8,500 acres of public land as described above.  The May Potlatch 40 is a located less than 10 miles away from the rapidly developing area of Brainerd-Baxter. This key acquisition consolidates a 640 acre block of wildlife habitat while guaranteeing a permanent public access for hunting and forest management purposes. The Bullmoose 40 parcel is surrounded by county managed land on 3 sides and is located in the middle of a 16,000 block of public managed land in Bull Moose Township. This parcel provides wildlife habitat for species like black bear, timberwolf. bobcat and pine martin. The Cass County Land Department has been in business for over 60 years. The staff of professional foresters over 140 years of natural resource management experience. The County managed forest lands have been certified to the Forest Stewardship Council forest certification standard since 2000. This certification is a rigorous third-party audit of the counties forest management practices and operations and insures to residents, taxpayer and visitors that these forest lands are managed in a sustainable manner. Cass County continues to show a proven record of success. Since the county was awarded its first grant in 2010, this final report marks the seventh closed Outdoor Heritage Fund grant. This is a program that performs because of our accountability to the local taxpayers.

This beautiful piece of equipment belongs to my current landlord. As of right now the Singer is resting in another property my landlord owns, and this spot will be rented out come mid-April. She has requested to sell this machine for $650 before the new tenants move in, for she no longer has any use for it and the new tenants don't want it in their space. This property that will be rented out is next door from my own (about 100 feet) so $50 has been allotted to hire muscle to move the cast iron machine to my home, which is where my studio is. The remaining potion, $150, has been reserved for a tune-up. The Singer needs a leather strap for the treadle, a new needle, bobbin and basic tune-up. I was shown some previous items this machine produced. She's capable of some magnificent work and am eager to put her to good use. The reason for the need to purchase this machine is my preferred living/studio situation. My studio is located in a small cabin that is completely off the grid. I find that by living without the distractions of electronics I am much more prolific in my creative output, however there are hurdles to jump over to ensure that I can meet product deadlines and keep an inventory of the things I produce. Since I cannot run a standard industrial sewing machine, the treadle provides the perfect solution. I have seen some of the items this treadle has produced and know that it will be the perfect companion for the leather goods I already make. To see my inventory grow much faster than just my hand-work can produce would be the ultimate reason for this machine. Not only that but to honor a sustainable way of creating beautiful and artfully done bags would honor the way I have chosen to live the last two years of my life. Beyond this, with the help of the sewing machine, I would love to finally see my items on display in boutiques and to create more of an online presence.","My sewing machine is up and running and at my house!

Specifically, I will learn to gouge raw, tube cane, use a cane hardness tester and apply that technique to the development of more consistent finished reeds, and learn how to adjust a bassoon cane profiling machine accurately.

The finished reeds will be used in performance immediately, but most importantly, those 10-20 reeds and the information gleaned from the reed making sessions will result in a lifetime of more precise reeds that carry consistency in tone, pitch, and response. Looking forward, the finished product reeds will also help provide a model to future students and community bassoonists to develop better reeds as well. The goal will have been achieved if I am able to consistently apply the scrapes, adjustments and construction techniques to every reed I make going forward.","After attending the Glickman-Popkin bassoon camp, I have learned two new reed making techniques that have already resulted in more efficient reed making and have generated 10 new reeds in this new style(s). I have mastered these new techniques (specifically, beveling cane on the inside corners to achieve a greater seal and rounder tube on the finished reed, and using high-powered sanders to profile cane rather than the old way of machining it with a specialized lathe known as a profiler), and as a result, I will be able to teach this to high school and college students in master classes and reed making sessions in my travels throughout the state and in my own professional development.

The outcomes of these workshops is measured by me having understood the history and methodology of the iron smelting process, then turning raw iron into steel, and then turning that steel into art as well as tools I use to continue with my art. The workshops aim to teach the history, theory, and practice of iron smelting and steel production.

Approximately 200 volunteers make Julebyen possible. The number of volunteers has grown every year. Attendance is another yardstick of success of Julebyen In 2013, its inaugural years, approximately 700 people attended. This number doubled in 2014 and doubled again in 2015 to 3,000 over Julebyen weekend. We measure outcomes by increase in: (1) attendance (Julebyen has doubled its festival goers yearly since its inaugural in 2013. Estimated attendance in 2015 was 3,000. (2) number of volunteers - 190 in 2015, (3) by increases in commercial sponsors and partners; most recently the North Shore Scenic Railroad donates a train to bring festival-goers from Duluth and return (4) media coverage (in 2015, Norwegian National Broadcasting sent a reporter and videographer from Norway to report on the Knife River Julebyen. The five minute feature that followed was aired to more than 3.5 million Norwegians in news broadcasts (5) in the growth of its outreach program to underserved children from the Boys and Girls Clubs of Duluth and Superior. The privately-funded outreach pays the train fares and meal expenses for children to attend Julebyen. In 2015, 39 children with chaperones were able to experience a family-centered Christmas experience at no cost that featured games, craft making workshop where children can make a holiday gift, a treasure hunt, skating, sliding, storytelling. Key to the growth of Julebyen is (1) our ability to attract and retain more volunteers and (2) continued support from outside partners to keep Julebyen free to the public. The support we request is to help cover the cost of entertainment, which has been selected to enhance and tie to the theme of Julebyen.","Attendance increased from an estimated 3,000 in 2015 to estimated 3,500 - 4,500 in 2016. The increase can be attributed to, in part, extending the festival to three days. Train ridership between those traveling to Julebyen and return from Duluth, and two Troll Train trips, increased from 149 riders in 2015 to more than 400 in 2016.

Of this amount, up to $195,000 is to establish a monitoring and enforcement fund as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. A list of permanent conservation easements must be provided as part of the final report.",,"An expansion of wetland and prairie habitat through this program alleviates pressure on those species that are most sensitive to habitat changes occurring on the landscape. 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.

The total acreage from both CWF and OHF sources for recorded easements is 2,793.2 acres. Only the OHF acres are being reported in this final report to be consistent with the approved accomplishment plan.","The sites enrolled were generally farmed sites adjacent to a sensitive water feature or drained and farmed floodplain wetlands and associated upland habitat. Expiring Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts were also enrolled. These sites originally 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. Factors considered during site selection included: linear corridor connectivity, length and width of the filter strip, adjacency to a public water, size of the site offered for enrollment, additional wildlife benefits, highly erodible land or partially highly erodible land, threatened and endangered species, and addressing water quality concerns. MN Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) is a voluntary, federal-state funded natural resource conservation program that uses a science based approach to target environmentally sensitive land in 54 Counties in southern and western Minnesota. This is accomplished through permanent protection by establishing conservation practices via payments to farmers and agricultural landowners. Landowners enrolled in the federally-funded CRP for 14-15 years; CRP is administered by the United States Department of Agriculture-Farm Service Agency (USDA-FSA). It uses agricultural land for conservation benefits, rather than farming or ranching; The same land was also enrolled into a state-funded perpetual conservation easement through the Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) Reserve program, administered by the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR). Private ownership continues and the land is permanently restored and enhanced for conservation benefits. The RIM payment rates were consistent throughout most (2018 - 2022) of this appropriation but CRP annual rental rates fluctuated, so the state's contribution to the overall easement cost varied in reaction to the CRP rate. Note that one easement (64-18-18-01) listed on the parcel list was split into two easements as a result of an ownership split but is still reported as one easement in the parcel list; accounting for the difference of one easement in the text compared to the parcel list. The largest easement funded in this project was a floodplain easement in Rock county (67-05-19-01). The total easement was 181.9 acres (91.0 acres funded with this project) and protects portions of both sides of Champepadan Creek and its floodplain areas.

The northwest embankment was built and a weir steering the main flow of the Roseau River into a natural oxbow was installed. A water control structure (on Pine Creek) and finishing work on the dike will be completed this year.","The project will provide spring-to-fall inundation of the basin for wetland wildlife. Once construction is complete, an operating plan will govern water level management such that operating levels for water in the basin will favor foraging, breeding, nesting, brood-rearing, and migration stopover habitat for a wide variety of waterfowl and other waterbirds. Only when water levels are high (as defined in the operating plan) will flood damage reduction operating measures take priority over habitat. The project has, in Phase 1, restored primary flow of the Roseau River to a natural oxbow. Similar work will occur on the Pine Creek to restore a channelized portion of that stream. Construction of Phase 1 (of 6) was initiated in September 2023. Phase 1 involves building a dike and exterior ditch along the NW side of Roseau Lake, installation of a water control structure on Pine Creek, and installation of a weir to steer the main flow of the Roseau River into an oxbow formed by channelization, which occurred better than a century ago. A total contract for $4.1million (of which $1.9 million was OHF funding) has been used to date to build the dike and exterior ditch to grade and install the weir on the river. Roseau River Watershed District funds will be used to complete Phase I. We hope to have this phase completed by the end of 2024. Phase 2 of the project is the wetland mitigation for the project, which occurs in the nearby Sprague Creek SNA/Lost River State Forest. Work began on this phase in winter 2023-24. No OHF funds are being used for this phase of the project. The wetland mitigation for this project doubles as an ecological restoration of spring fen channels in a boreal forest ecosystem that was severed by a legal ditch system better than a century ago. Through abandonment of portions of the ditch system and selective filling of these ditches, the natural hydrology will be reconnected and thus improve the quality of the habitat affected by the drainage. There are a number of rare plant and animals that will benefit from a functional lift in the habitats. Phase 3 construction (using OHF funding granted during the last legislative session) will begin in 2025. This appropriation was divided between acquisition and construction. It purchased a critical acquisition for the project of 255 acres on the southwest corner of the WMA.

Opportunities to see live performances are limited in our locale, so audiences are eager to see and hear live performances. The Community Spring Musical is a seasonal highlight for the town and area. In addition, the performers in the musical are able to develop relationships between and among community constituents while also developing and honing their singing, dancing and acting talents. The success of the Spring Community Musical can be measured quantitatively by attendance and qualitatively by the feedback from audience members, in both formal and informal responses. Performers will have an opportunity to reflect on their development as creative artists through verbal and written feedback to directors and the guest presenter. Ely Community Spring Musical directors and cast members, and local performing artists, will have an opportunity to work with a movement expert to enhance their body posture and alignment and learn to incorporate healthy movement in their performances. Cast members will learn new expressive movement through the workshops and in a guided rehearsal with the guest movement teacher. Participants in the workshop sessions will have opportunities for experimenting with and using the techniques from the workshops in sessions and in subsequent rehearsals. Participants will receive verbal feedback and reinforcement of movement techniques during sessions from the presenter (Lightner) and in rehearsals from the directors who will have had some extra training sessions with Lightner. Follow-up verbal and written feedback from the workshops will allow the participants to reflect on their experiences and enable the presenter and the directors to assess the impact of the workshops on the participants.","This spring's musical was an artistic success and exceeded our hopes and aspirations for cast development and ""spectacle"" enhancement, which were the primary focuses of the ARAC grant monies requested. Our Guest Presenter, Babette Lightner, worked with the group on a Thursday evening rehearsal, did a director's workshop on Friday, a group workshop on Saturday morning, solo sessions on Saturday afternoon, and a follow-up group rehearsal on Sunday evening. During all of these sessions, Ms. Lightner continuously provided verbal feedback to the participants and asked for feedback from the participants. The performers themselves could feel the difference in their bodies through freedom of movement and in their voices through ease of production. The Lightner Technique invests in developing self-awareness through a series of guided questions, physical sensations and personal revelations. Measurable outcomes included better dancing, singing and acting because of the workshops, which was noticeable not only to the directors and other cast members, but to the performers themselves. In addition, participants provided feedback via a written form (see attached samples). Based on cast feedback and the written evaluations, the guest presenter was a HUGE success for the cast participants (photos attached). Visually, this was one of the most exciting and creative shows we have ever produced (please see photos), which we couldn't have pulled off without the extra ARAC funding for supplies and stipends. The ""Steampunk"" look of the set and costumes and the use of rear projections in our ""Wheel of Fortune"" was brilliant. Immediate audience remarks and comments for weeks afterwards raved about the set and costumes. Our only disappointment was our attendance numbers and ticket sales were down, and did not even meet projections, which is too bad, because those folks missed a good show.

A secondary goal is to expand our participants' artistic skills. These are the measurable short-range outcomes: To maintain or increase artist participation, to engage the public in the artists' work, to create an atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork, and to be family-friendly. These are the longer-range outcomes: To provide rewarding experiences for audiences and increase appreciation for the arts, to provide participants with opportunities for personal growth as artists, and to draw visitors to Ely to strengthen the local winter tourism industry. The first outcome will be met if we have 40 or more participating artists and 14 or more snow sculptures in the park. The degree of engagement with the public is easily observed by Ely Winter Festival board members who will be in the park throughout the time when the carving is taking place. We will sponsor several group meals that are attended by artists and board members, and we will solicit feedback from artists informally at those events. Additionally, we will evaluate our success by soliciting feedback from other arts organizations (e.g., Northern Lakes Arts Association, Ely ArtWalk), the business community, and the general public. The first board meeting following the completion of the Festival is always open to the public for the express purpose of evaluation. We obtain lodging tax information from the Chamber of Commerce. Because lodging taxes are collected monthly, not weekly, it can be difficult to sort out the impact of the Festival itself, but year-over-year trends indicate a long-range positive impact.","Measurable short-range outcomes: • To maintain or increase artist participation • To engage the public in the artists’ work • To create an atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork • To be family-friendly Longer–range outcomes: • To provide rewarding experiences for audiences and increase appreciation for the arts • To provide participants with opportunities for personal growth as artists • To draw visitors to Ely to strengthen the local winter tourism industry Short-term outcomes were clearly met. Artist participation increased from 40 to 53, and the number of sculptures grew from 14 to 20. A longtime carver told us, “One of my favorite parts is to interact with people from other parts of the state, or the country for that matter, who have never experienced these before.” Another carver said, “Each team is friendly, and the symposium atmosphere encourages us to all collaborate and help each other reach our artistic goals. I am always heartened by how much different teams look out for each other; whether it's to borrow a tool, or to help lift heavy snow blocks. The non-competitive atmosphere fosters a seriously creative community.” She went on to say, “I am not only a sculptor, but a mom.

The Internet is a crowded place so we must continue to improve the quality of our writing, directing, acting and sound effects art if we are to earn a larger audience and fulfill our mission for our artists, our audience and our community. Our plan is to use website metrics that measure audience size and reaction to judge the overall quality of our plays. To do this, we will need to equate the quality of our work with how the audience interacts with it. Primarily, we'll be using metrics from our podcast host site Spreaker.com to help us judge how our show is being received. The two main metrics on Spreaker.com are 'Downloads' indicating the number of times our shows have been downloaded, and 'Live Listens' indicating the number of times someone has clicked the 'play' button to listen to one of our shows while visiting our page on the Spreaker.com site. We will chart these two metrics over the year hoping to see growth in both statistics. In addition, we offer memberships to our listeners. We hope to see a 10-percent increase in memberships this year. In addition, we began a program for direct audience support on the crowd funding site Patreon in 2016. We would also like to see a 10-percent increase in patrons on this site this year.","This year, our source for measurable outcomes statistics were listener numbers from our podcast host sight, Spreaker.com, financial gains through our membership program and contributions to our group through the crowd funding site, Patreon.

While past semesters have focused on more traditional sacred choral music, this music will give an opportunity to a different type of singer. One long term goal is to encourage lifelong participation in musical ensembles. Many students participate in musical activities during school years, but feel they don't have an opportunity to continue after they graduate. All participants will benefit from the cross-generation effort of producing a concert for all ages. Chorus members and students will learn and practice new vocal techniques required for a different style of music. Dance students will learn another musical style and form of dance. To measure learning and satisfaction, collaborating directors, performers and audience will be surveyed and asked for feedback. Students in the High School choir will also be asked for feedback on their experience. The number and age of musicians and audience will also serve as a measure of Itasca Community Choir's growing reputation for delivering quality choral music. We hope to increase performer and audience under the age of 50 by 20%. To scrutinize the choral techniques and overall performance, at least two written critiques are solicited from respected area directors and musicians. Suggestions from those providing feedback are considered and acted upon by the Board. Director Evans and the board review the concert via the video recording of the concert produced by Itasca Community Television. High School Choir and dancers will also be able to review their performance using the video recording for their own learning opportunities. New for this concert: Ushers will be asked to gauge the age of our audience to determine if our younger chorus is being followed by younger audience as we seek to grow the appreciation for quality choral music. To assess the effectiveness of different mediums (from social media, to word of mouth, or traditional print media), ushers will also be instructed to ask attendees how they heard about the concert. Overall the Board is looking for a positive response no lower than 90%.","Actual Measurable Outcomes 66 singers participated, up from 47 in the spring. Most had not sung with Chorus previously. Approximately 30 percent of the chorus members are under 40. 51 Students from the Deer River Schools Choir participated in the concert 8 students from Pure Energy Dance performed choreographed routines for 2 songs. 329 adults attended the concert, 53 students attended the concert. Because of the type of music performed, a selection of Broadway hits new and old, the number of participants in the Chorus increased, and younger people joined. According to the results of a survey of the Chorus members, 15% of the respondents said they joined this term because of the type of music being performed. Many of the new members are younger. Dance students had the opportunity to dance a choreographed routine accompanying a large group on Stage at the Reif performing Arts Center. This was a new experience for most of them. They had not performed with a choral group, and they had not performed on stage at the Reif in front of a large audience. They did a fantastic job. The dance instructor coached them and rehearsed them on the dance routines in their classes, then they joined the chorus on stage for a dress rehearsal several days before the concert, and again during rehearsal time just before the concert. The dancers added color, movement and visual appeal to the concert. The Choir from the Deer River School, performing several pieces with the Chorus, had the opportunity to perform with a large, more experienced group on stage in a professional performing arts venue.",,3177,"Other, local or private",6828,,"Marcia Anderson, Jean Cyronik, Dan Duffy, Michelle Kessler, Carol Morrill, Marvin Nygaard, Karen Panasuk, Bill Schnell, Paula Shaw, Charlie (Arlin) Talley",,"Itasca Community Chorus","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Rural and Community Art Project Grant",,"""Broadway: Past and Present!""

Within a week following the Art Speaks Exhibit, all staff and clients will meet to discuss successes, challenges, and ideas for improvement or expansion. Program-specific forms already in place, or to be designed, will collect statistical data and financial information to assure we are progressing in an organized, timely and cost-effective manner.

It was helpful to hear what is happening in other small rural communities, and how they pulled it off. I spoke with a number of people that have on-going, exciting community art projects happening in their small towns and cities. Communication and collaboration seemed to be key throughout the conference. It made me realize that there are many things we can do in Tyler. We just need to think bigger, and get more people involved. We have many separate organizations in Tyler that all do their own thing.

Secondary outcome: the design and creation of an original work of art to be displayed in the Hibbing Memorial Building and/or the St. Louis County Heritage and Arts Center (the Depot), until such time as the design plan for the new Hibbing Mine View Building is available to exhibit designers. This project shifted from a Hibbing Courthouse mural project, led by former Commissioner Steve Rauker, to a mural and exhibit project designed to reach a wider audience. At this time, it is unknown if the new Mine View Building will be heated year-round. Without this information, the location of the original mural is unknown. If the building is heated throughout the year, and there is sufficient room, the original will be included in an interpretive exhibit. If the building is not temperature controlled, the original mural will find a permanent home in Hibbing and a high resolution duplicate, created by CPL Imaging of Duluth, will be included in the interpretive exhibit. The St. Louis County Historical Society and John Ongaro, St. Louis County's Director of Intergovernmental Affairs, along with Commissioner Michael Jugovich, are responsible for exhibit development, funding and placement. The IRRRB is positioned to fund the exhibit when the safety of the original artwork is assured. The St. Louis County Historical Society's American Indian Advisory Committee, comprised of tribal appointees from Fond du Lac, Grand Portage, and Bois Forte are committed to accurate portrayal of Native American culture and history.

A list of proposed restorations must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"119 Habitat acres Restored and 68 Habitat acres Enhanced. ",,1668200,"Sand Hill River Watershed District, USACE ",828000,,,,"Sand Hill River Watershed District","Local/Regional Government","Phase 2 of this project will complete fish passage restoration from the Red River to 47 miles of quality upstream habitat in the Sand Hill River watershed and enhance stream habitat in a degraded segment of the Sand Hill River. ",,"Many native fish species migrate from the Red River to tributary streams, such as Sand Hill River, to access quality spawning habitats. This is especially true for Lake Sturgeon, a native species recently re-introduced into the Red River Basin, which make very long migrations to reproduce in riffles and rapids found in high gradient areas. Barriers to fish passage, such as dams, prevent fish from making this seasonal spawning run. The MN Department of Natural Resources in collaboration with federal and local partners has systematically removed and modified more than a dozen fish barriers in the Red River Basin over the past 15 years. Restoring connections from the Red River to these critical habitats helps to re-establish and maintain healthy, robust native fish communities with greater resiliency to invasion by exotic species. Construction for the original fish passage restoration portion of this grant has been completed and costs were well below estimates. All benefits achieved through fish passage were allocated to the Phase 1 (ML2015) portion of the project. The US Army Corps of Engineers administered the fish passage project. Since the original fish passage project was completed using only ML2015 funds, that leverage source was removed from this Accomplishment Plan. Fish passage restored at three additional sites in the Sand Hill River watershed with the unspent funds. The first barrier is the road crossing on Kittleson Creek, a tributary to the Sand Hill River. This culvert is nearly perched and velocities exceed the swimming limits for most species at normal flows. This restoration replaced the culvert with a structure more appropriately sized for the creek and at a lower elevation to accommodate fish passage. The second barrier is a dam on Sand Hill Lake. The dam was removed and replaced with rock arch rapids to allow fish passage upstream into Sand Hill Lake. Both of these crossings are upstream of the dams that were modified for fish passage in 2017. Restoration of fish passage at these two sites expanded the number of restored acres and river miles in the watershed. The third site, removed a bridge and concrete wing walls and abutments over the Sand Hill River, replacing it with a rock riffle for grade control and fish passage. A second component of this project enhanced stream habitat within a channelized segment of the Sand Hill River downstream of the four drop structures. The river channel in this reach was unstable and has down cut significantly, creating a simplified habitat lacking in diverse substrate and depth. Habitat was enhanced by constructing rock riffles in the channel to reduce velocities, increase pool/riffle habitat and provide more diverse substrate. The enhanced habitat is used by many fish species for spawning, juvenile, and year round deep cover.

",,"Ducks Unlimited (DU) worked with willing seller private landowners who had previously expressed interest in selling adjacent or very near existing state Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) to the Minnesota DNR.  Once we directly confirmed the interest of the private landowner in receiving a purchase offer, DU hired private consultant surveyors and appraisers to conduct legal land surveys and appraisals of the land, and made offers to private landowners.  Most of these parcels were known by DU and Minnesota DNR in advance of the appropriation, and thus DU moved very quickly.  After this ML2016 OHF grant was appropriated, DU closed five acquisitions in fall 2016 and the remaining three acquisitions in 2017.  In total, eight parcels totaling 824 acres were acquired by DU, far exceeding our grant goal of 600 acres.  As each of these eight parcels were largely cropland, with the exception of the 40-acre parcel on Altona WMA in Lincoln County which was intact wetland and native prairie grassland, significant restoration was required which took DU through June 2021 to fully complete.  DU biologists and engineers worked together with Minnesota DNR area wildlife managers to plan and implement restorations.  DU engineers surveyed and designed wetland restorations, and hired private earthmoving construction firms (following state procurement procedures) to disrupt drainage ditches and subsurface drain tile, remove sediment, and install water control structures where needed.  To restore upland areas back to native prairie grasslands, DU relied on the expertise of Minnesota DNR wildlife managers and prairie ecologists to select plant species seeds, which were installed by either Minnesota DNR field staff or by private restoration contractors using either native grass seed drills or broadcast seed spreaders, depending on the time of year and preference of the Minnesota DNR manager.  Except for some native grass and forb seeding, all restoration work was done by private contractors.  DU used the state OHF expenditures for land acquisitions to leverage over $200,000 in federal North American Wetlands Conservation Act grant funds to help pay for restoration costs.  All lands acquired by DU were subsequently transferred to the Minnesota DNR after a one-to-two year hold time, during which DU pay local county taxes due.  All lands have been open for public use since acquisition by DU, and have been incorporated in the the state WMA system for long-term management by the Minnesota DNR and public use.

","The Shell Rock River Watershed District (SRRWD) covers 246 square miles inside Freeborn County and includes a complex system of wetlands, streams, and shallow lakes that drain into the Shell Rock River. Among the District’s 11 lakes are Fountain Lake and Albert Lea Lake, which are located in the core of Freeborn County. These lakes are important to residents for recreation and vital to Albert Lea’s tourism economy and identity.   ","With The Phase 5 Habitat Restoration Program the District completed 3 acquisitions along with wetland restorations and vegetation enhancements. For each of the land acquisitions the process starts the same, the District works with a willing landowner and enters into an option to purchase the property. Once the Option is signed, the District completes a survey and an appraisal of the property. The District then negotiates with the landowner an acceptable offer and executes the purchase agreement and completes final closing requirements. Property acquisitions include the Owens, Schroeder and Mud Lake Property. The Owens acquisition was 45 acres of agricultural ground that was purchased and now includes 2 wetland ponds of 25 acres with the remaining ground planted into native upland prairie mix. The property will be donated to the DNR and will be joined into the Upper Twin Lake WMA. The Mud Lake Property was 23 acres in size and will be permanently protecting mesic hardwood forests and wetlands. This property will be adding to the adjoining Magaksica WMA that is expanding current habitat corridors. The final acquisition is the Schroeder acquisition at 22 acres in size. This property was in agricultural row crop production and included a portion of untouched meandering stream. This property now has been planted into natives and is protecting that meandering stream and the mesic hardwoods that surrounds the stream. Further restoration of the side for wetland restoration is planned in future funding efforts. Following restoration and enhancement projects include the Miller Wetland, Wedge Creek Reach 1 Vegetative restoration and the Pickerel Lake Site #12 Channel Restoration. The Miller wetland project partnered with the USFWS in which $461,000 in federal match was added to the grant as a result of their Iowa, Chicago & Eastern WPA acquisition dollars. This wetland restoration turned agricultural ground into upland plantings and wetlands by disabling field tile and completing wetland scrapes. The project came in under bid, and that is why we have additional funds to return to the OHF. This project expands current restored parcels and will benefit waterfowl, pollinators and songbirds. For the Wedge Creek Reach #1 vegetative restoration the District, following procurement procedures, hired a contractor to remove invasive species and complete controlled burns on the site. This allows native plants to thrive in its place and impacts habitat along public waters. The Pickerel Lake Channel Restoration Project improves the breeding success of native populations by reconnecting historic spawning grounds upstream of Pickerel Lake.

",,"The program's 4 core activities were to acquire lands in fee, protect lands through conservation easement, restore and enhance habitat. On June 19, 2017, The Trust for Public Land (TPL) acquired and conveyed a former 833-acre Girl Scout camp to the Minnesota DNR to create the new Yucatan Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Fillmore and Houston Counties. Located in the Richard J. Dorer Memorial State Forest in Southeast Minnesota, the Yucatan WMA is predominantly forested with oaks, cherry and other hardwood species. It contains majestic bluffs with stunning panoramic views of the Root River, one of the best trout streams in the Midwest. In addition, the new WMA includes the literal headwaters of a small spring-fed stream that is teeming with native brook trout. Several rare species call the land home, including timber rattlesnakes and a rare plantain. Yucatan WMA will provide outstanding public recreational opportunities for hunting, fishing, hiking and wildlife observation in an area with relatively little public land. This successful acquisition used $2,255,200 of the Southeast Minnesota Protection and Restoration Phase IV acquisition funds. On December 13th, 2018, TPL acquired and conveyed approximately 340 acres to the Minnesota DNR as an addition to Choice WMA in Fillmore County. This land contains bluffs with beautiful views of the Root River Valley. It also contains the headwaters of a small spring-fed stream with a healthy population of native brook trout. Many animal species call the land home, including deer and turkey, providing excellent public hunting opportunities. This acquisition used the remaining $489,901 of the ML16 Southeast Minnesota Protection and Restoration Phase IV acquisition funds in addition to $331,099 of the ML17 Southeast Minnesota Protection and Restoration Phase V acquisition funds. This project also leveraged $500,000 in DNR RIM funds. We have accomplished and exceeded the stated outcomes of this program. In the Spring of 2019, The Nature Conservancy (TNC) closed on 409 acres of the 885-acre Schueler Wildlife Management Area acquisition, including 1 mile of trout stream. The portion of the property acquired with this appropriation has approximately 18 acres of bluff prairie overlooking the Rush Creek valley and 276 acres of hardwood forest; nearly 115 acres of pasture and a farmstead that has been cleaned up is being restored to habitat. TNC used private funds to restore a portion of an oxbow wetland on the property near Rush Creek that provides new wetland habitat. The successful acquisition of this property is the result of TNC maintaining contact with a large landowner along Rush Creek since 2007, when it was identified as a top 10 protection priority in the region. TNC used goat grazing to enhance bluff prairie and oak savanna on 35 acres in Whitewater WMA and 6 acres on Rush Creek Woods WMA. Using goats on bluff prairie and oak savannas in Southeast Minnesota has proven to be a cost-effective means to prepare sites for prescribed fire and allow for a regular fire return interval. The Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) completed 4 conservation easements protecting 451 acres of forest and prairie, and16,473 feet of shoreland along streams. Each project is described in brief below; project summary sheets with more extensive descriptions, maps and photos have also been uploaded into the final report: 1. Bear Creek (Erding) – Located along Bear Creek in Fillmore County, this 81-acre property lies within an MBS Site of Moderate Biodiversity Significance, and protects forested blufflands, canyon-like ravines, and one mile of shorelines along a tributary to Bear Creek. 2. Frontenac State Park (Jones Trust) – This scenic 164-acre property lies on a terrace of the Mississippi River adjacent to Frontenac State Park in Goodhue County. Composed principally of agricultural field, the landowner donated the conservation easement valued at $696,400. Subsequent to the donation, the Land Trust restored the ag lands to native prairie through a CPL grant. 3. South Fork Root River (Dahl Creek Farms, LLLP) – Situated on the edge of Irish Ridge above the South Fork Root River in Houston and Fillmore Counties, this 415-acre property is dominated by forested bluffs that descend over 400 feet in elevation to the floodplain below. The conservation easement protects 1.73 miles of shoreline along the South Fork Root River and its tributaries. 4. Wiscoy Valley (Mueller) – Located in Winona County, this 164-acre conservation easement protects mixed hardwood forest and over 3,800 feet of shoreline along a tributary to Money Creek, a state-designated trout stream.

",,"Working in collaboration with conservation partners, local government units, and ecological and wildlife professionals throughout the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Division of Forestry staff identified strategic opportunities for acquiring priority additions to our State Forest system.  Parcels were selected from area land asset management plans, with priority given to those that improved public access to state lands, consolidated fragmented ownership boundaries, and provided protection of critical forest habitats. In this third phase of the State Forest Acquisition project, we were able to successfully meet all our intended objectives of protecting 340 acres of high quality forested habitat, using only 80% of requested funds.  In total four new State Forest additions were completed, providing a variety of benefits as described in breif below: Watopa 1, Wabasha Co. – Protected 182 acres of high quality upland hardwood forest and vulnerable dry bedrock bluff prairie adjacent to existing state forest lands in the Snake Creek Unit of the Richard J. Dorer Memorial Hardwood State Forest.  Acquisition of this parcel protects an important tributary critical to maintaining water quality from adjacent agricultural lands before emptying one mile downstream into Snake Creek, a designated trout stream. Savanna 1, Aitkin Co. – Acquired a high priority 80 acre inholding in the Savanna State Forest that had been completely surrounded by existing state lands.  Management boundaries were reduced by almost 8,000 feet, greatly improving our ability to manage these lands cost effectively, preventing future development fragmentation, and enhancing wildlife habitat continuity.  Crooked Creek 1, Houston Co. – Protection of these 37 acres allows for the restoration of 1,400 feet of sensitive shoreline along Crooked Creek trout stream just above where it enters into the Mississippi River.  Land had been heavily grazed pasture, and is being actively restored to native hardwood bottomland forests.  Protection and restoration of this previously degraded site will significantly reduce runoff erosion, improve water quality, and enhance critical riparian and riverine wildlife habitat along an important corridor adjacent to the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge.  In addition this acquisition provides better public and management access to adjacent state forest lands, allowing for more hunting, fishing and other recreational opportunities. Steamboat 1, Hubbard Co. - Acquisition of this critical 40 acre inholding in the Paul Bunyan State Forest significantly reduces management boundaries by over 5,000 feet, greatly reducing management costs and fragmentation.  This parcel was being divested by a large forest industry landholder (Potlatch), and was at risk of deforestation due to potential private acquisition and subsequent development to other land uses.  Protection of this tract ensures it will remain permanently forested, improving the overall habitat value of the landscape by providing for large, continuous intact native forest communities.

As of October 2022, the MDA has cumulatively engaged >18,000 ag producers, crop advisors and Local Government Units at >450 education and outreach events. Implemented 677 Nutrient Management Initiative field trials in 2015-2021 Worked with an average of 98 farmers and 27 crop advisers each year on nutrient management trials The MDA maintains 20 active edge-of-field water quality monitoring stations around the state. Edge of Field data has been used for a variety of computer simulation and model calibrations including PTMApp, Adapt-N, SWAT, and the Runoff Risk Advisory Tool. Data are used to support the State’s Watershed Approach and referenced in numerous WRAPs reports. Data from Discovery Farms Minnesota, the Root River Field to Stream Partnership, the Clay County Drainage Site and Red River Valley Drainage Water Management have all been shared with local, state and national partners. Data has been used in peer-reviewed journal articles, large meta-analysis and to engage local farmers and discuss the effectiveness of conservation practices. The Root River Field to Stream Partnership (RRFSP) has helped identify critical areas and worked with farmers to implement conservation practices. This project has helped install and support: Over 105,000 feet of grassed waterways 15 new water and sediment control basins and catchment ponds Rehabilitation of an outdated flood control structure Planting of 370 acres of cover crops Feedlot improvements include an increase in manure storage to reduce manure applications on frozen soil, moving milk house wastewater systems, and abandonment of a feedlot in a high-risk location The highest runoff risk field in one of the study areas (80 acres) was enrolled into the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). An additional 50 acres was enrolled in other areas. Over 50% of the highest priority conservation practices were addressed by the end of 2017, about 70% addressed as of end of 2022. $1.8 million in state and federal conservation funds were distributed across three watersheds over a five-year period (60% on vegetative & structural practices, 40% on feedlot & manure waste improvements) In the glacial till headwaters watershed, 64% of the High Risk Area has been treated (after 2021), prior to 2018 only 8% of the High Risk Area had been treated. The RRFSP has leveraged Clean Water Fund dollars with over $5 million in private, state, and federal dollars to support conservation efforts. If CWF dollars from other agencies is excluded, over $3.5 million has been leveraged.                                                                                                                                                                               The Red River Valley Drainage Water Management Project (RRV DWM) is evaluating drainage water management on operating farms as a practice to mitigate flooding and add water quality and quantity benefits. The project has shown that:  Controlled drainage is a viable option in the lake bottom landscape of the Red River Basin During 2017-2020, controlled drainage reduced nitrate-N losses by 22% and reduced drainage volume by over 13% compared to conventional subsurface drainage During 2018-2020, a saturated buffer had capacity to treat 92% of the drainage water from an 11-acre research field and removed over 76% of the nitrate in the drainage water (including water through the bypass) Since 2015, nearly 3,500 people have been engaged in RRV DWM outreach presentations, and field days/events. (Overall: 49 presentations, 19 field days/events, 4 poster displays, 2 trade journal articles, 3 publications/reports, 2 data requests) The RRV DWM has leveraged Clean Water Fund dollars with over $1 million in private, Local Government Unit and federal dollars to support drainage research and outreach.

The grant will allow me to update my equipment so that I can complete the film in the manner in which I've designed it. I plan to begin initial Super 8mm shooting in May of 2017, traveling to various sites scouted across the state of Minnesota. There will be three months of shooting, including dailies, film processing, and re-shoots as needed. Following this, the Super 8mm film footage will be digitized, uploaded, and archived along with the HD video footage and the analog still photography. From there, I will load everything into Final Cut Pro, organize the various kinds of footage and sound clips, and begin cutting together what will become the final film.

The equipment I currently own and use for recording, mixing, and mastering has been adequate thus far, however I am now in need of hardware that will help further increase my capabilities and support my educational process. Through the acquiring of this grant opportunity I plan to upgrade several components to my studio in order to achieve a higher quality product and fine tune work flow. Measurable outcomes would include sonic quality comparisons in the music as well as time spent working on any given project. The microphone will absolutely produce a higher quality sound for me to work with recording. This will become noticeable through the process of recording, mixing and mastering as an obvious measurable outcome. The keyboard controller has been identified as the most congruent and compatible on the market for the current music production software I use. The use of this keyboard will allow for a more hands-on approach to producing and offer more ease of access to the finer details that are manipulable through the program. Measurable outcomes include a faster work process and a more accurate sound design. The speakers will help produce a more pure sound signal for me to work with. This will help me make more accurate decision in sound design which would be apparent in future projects.","My delayed interaction with the equipment, due to prior obligations, leaves less details for my outcomes than what will be coming in the very near future.

The frequency response in these speakers give me a much clearer picture of the sound I'm working with in terms of its true nature. Sounds are much clearer, making future judgments of adjustments more accurate with less guess work. The keyboard's main feature of having pre-mapped settings for the program I use works seamlessly. I am able to control sound design and make proper adjustments at a much faster rate than before. I'm also seeing a larger potential for ease of creativity, as the finer tinkering of trying to do these things manually on the computer can quickly decay any sense of creativity.

In addition, with improved light and sound quality, the information and stories conveyed by the subject are easier understood by the audience, thereby allowing space for more complex themes to emerge. The goal in any interview is to have the visuals and audio be so well executed that the audience doesn't notice how much work really went into it. While visually important in terms of introducing the audience to a subject, a well-done interview also allows for other more visually expressive elements of the story to emerge without distraction. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of this improvement, I will be comparing my work specifically as it pertains to interviews pre- and post- technological update using a third party audience. After viewing, audience members will be asked a series of questions about the quality (in the categories of light, sound, etc.) and the effectiveness of communication within the interview. If audience members do not indicate major improvement, different arrangements and equipment settings will be implemented.

With the exception of the final outcome all outcomes were achieved although, in some cases, they took longer than originally planned as described below. The final outcome, ""the tour is known to be available to the community"" is a work in progress as we continue to spread the word and develop interest in the tour. Initial project administration completed as described. Development of story with supporting maps and documentation completed but took four months instead of the initial planned 3 months and did not start until month 3 of the project. These delays were caused simply by the availability of the contractor for this work. Final design and interim peer review completed once the narrative and supporting documentation were completed. We did not anticipate the special requirement to have the narration reviewed by the MN Historical Society. This process added about two months to our timeline, partly because when the tour was reviewed, the Historical Society asked for some changes to the narration that were unanticipated. While, in the end, this was a valuable and important step for us, it did move out the completion of the project by an additional two months. With the support of Preserve Minneapolis and the skills of their web coordinator, Richard Kronick, the development of the final product on the website turned out to be much more straightforward than we had expected. The final outcome is the tour is known to be available in the community. With the release of the tour, it was advertised in the November MRP newsletter, which reaches over 1500 people. We have also sent a press releases to interested parties in the Metro Area including news outlets and neighborhood organizations. We are presenting at both the St. Anthony Falls Heritage Board and the Preserve Minneapolis Board.

Contact grants@mnhs.org","The measureable outcomes for this project were listed in the Intermediate, Short Term and Long Term. The Expected Impact in the Intermediate stated that - Area residents will have access to a greater base of knowledge regarding Hutchinson's railroad history and that the Progress Indicator would be that 100% of graffiti will be researched, and a research report will have been written. Every inch of the Depot that contained graffiti was sectioned off and photographed by a Photographer, the product of which are included in the Final Research Report. Historic Hutchinson donated digital copies of the photographs and a physical copy of the final research report to the McLeod County Historical Society for their visitors to have more than one way of learning about the histories left behind in the Depot. The group is also looking into ways to publish the research to increase its accessibility to the public. The expected impact in the short term read as, Local awareness of and interest in the depot's graffiti and history, with the progress indicator being that participation in the public input phase of research. This goal was reached during and after the research phases; there were some cases where local citizens with the same surname as a piece of graffiti was contacted by the Researcher to confirm that that name was indeed a relative and to provide additional information about that person. The local newspaper, The Hutchinson Leader, published an article about the project that included miniature versions of some biographies and photographs from inside the Depot. This generated public interest in a unique city landmark that many previously did not know anything about; the local population was excited to know that the graffiti had already lasted for over a century and showed support for making it last for another one hundred years. The expended impact in the Long Term was - Increased public interaction with local railroading history with the progress indicator being that the researched history will create a knowledge based upon which to base a preservation and exhibition project. The Depot has a newly attached meeting space that is available to the public to rent, but the section of the building with the floor-to-ceiling graffiti is closed off. This research project has brought more awareness on the vast history that the graffiti represents and a good amount of local pride when it was realized that the Hutchinson Depot is alone in Minnesota when the amount and age of railroading graffiti is compared to other Minnesota train depots. Discussions are occurring with the owners of the Depot property on ways to preserve the graffiti and make it accessible for the general public to learn about their local history.",,1809,"Available upon request.

We intend to: increase the number of students that attend, increase the time they spend at the Music Resource Center, maintain or increase the diversity of students in the program, continue to reach out to at-risk youths at places such as Life House and the Steve O'Neil apartments, provide ample performance opportunities, support students in creating professional quality recordings of their work, continue to provide the high quality experience students expect. The instructors, staff, and the board of the Armory Arts and Music Center (the Music Resource Center's parent organization) are committed to the Music Resource Center's mission, 'To educate and inspire young people, and through music, equip them with life skills for the future'. The Music Resource Center program and its parent organization, the Armory Arts and Music Center, are continually assessing, evaluating and seeking feedback to shape the program and achieve its goals. This happens at all levels of the organization including our instructors, the executive director, the Armory Arts and Music Center Arts and Music Programming Committee, and the Armory Arts and Music Center Board. These evaluations take place at different intervals to effectively respond to input and needs. Discussion among the instructors and the executive director occur on a weekly (or more frequent) basis, while the Arts and Music Programming Committee meets periodically to discuss larger issues, and the Board meets monthly for updates and to give input. The Music Resource Center currently utilizes three tools to gather information including: Student registration packet (which includes the member application and interest survey); to understand each students background and goals. Daily sign-in sheet; to track attendance. End of year survey; to evaluate the overall effectiveness of the program. Last year we stepped up our efforts to collect additional and more accurate data. We found this to be very helpful in understanding the overall quality of the program, which our students and parents rated a 4.3 on a scale of 1-5. This year we are continuing to improve measuring aspects of the program to verify that we are meeting our goals.","Overall, the Music Resource Center was successful in achieving its outcomes these past two years. We track the attendance, reach, and effectiveness of our program through our daily sign-in sheet, our registration packet, and our end of the year survey.

Measureable outcomes in this field would be to increase presence to the public, create stronger promotional opportunities, increase and solidify year round marketing within social networks, create regional advertisements, website upkeep and analytics tracking, and increase programming with partner organizations. With the staff hire to oversee these activities we intend to increase traffic to the Duluth Superior Film Festival website by 50% in the non-festival months. Increase our Facebook Page Likes and Twitter followers by 20% and increase the number of screenings we present outside of the festival setting to 20/year. The long range outcome is to expand the regional artistic community by producing a quality, entertaining, and thought provoking film festival and ongoing cinema exhibition. An increase in regional productions allows Duluth Superior Film Festival to attempt to screen 15 regionally made productions per year in 2017/18. Our methods to measure outcomes to ascertain goal achievements will be as follows: Monitoring staff hire through board oversight via a 5-point performance management evaluation matrix tool that assesses staff strength in the following categories and subcategories: 1. Organizational Wide Financial Understanding: Financial understanding of organization and ability to constrain this understanding. 2. Organization Wide Competencies: Initiative; Sense of Urgency; Teamwork; Work Environment/Safety. 3. Job Based Competencies: Communication; Audience Focus; Dependability; Job Knowledge; Planning; Productivity; Results Focus; Technical Skills. Marketing and promotional goals will be measured through the use of website analytics and visitor tracking, social networking insight tools which measure page actions, page views, page likes, reach, and post engagements, as well as documenting volume of promotional materials and advertisements at festival and special year round events. We will know that we achieved our goals by seeing an increase in traffic to our website by 50% in the non-festival months, an increase our Facebook page Likes (currently 1,916) and Twitter followers (currently 755) by 20% (Facebook=2,300, Twitter=910).

Prove plans to evaluate progress with increased tracking of donors and community members interacting with the gallery. The project director will compile monthly reports which will include visitors attending events and open hours, number of new donors, events held, presentations given, etc. Collective board members will review the reports and take action as deemed necessary. These reports will help us determine trends in growth and see if growth is happening due to new technology and resources.","We increased our membership in the past two years, which we did through promotion and a Membership Drive. We were able to better track our members through the use of a new database which we devised this year (and although we didn't use purchased software; the initiative to do so in an organized manner was still inspired by the grant). We also instituted a system of membership benefits created by the collective, in order to maintain contact with our donors, to establish goodwill and the willingness to continue giving. We can attest to the effectiveness of our system based on the number of membership renewals (30% renewal rate; 26 new members since October 2017). It was also our goal to provide tactile quarterly and yearly newsletter ""zines"" to our contributing members for updates and opportunities for involvement in upcoming group shows, which we instituted this year during our Annual Membership Drive. With the purchase of a vinyl machine with funds from the operating grant, we were also able to create a public display of our members and donors in the space of the gallery, as a way to prominently acknowledge the members gained through this drive and also to encourage further connection with and support by our members. Another goal was to stabilize the gallery through operating funds. With the support of the ARAC Grant, we have been able to continue our exhibition and venue agenda, which included: 12 exhibitions (including two solo exhibitions and 3 exhibitions that included international artists), a pop-up art sale for emerging artists, a venue for book and poetry readings (including the Spirit Lake Poetry series), a venue for various musical performances as well as participating in the Homegrown Music Festival each year, a site for CSS students to create a collaborative community mural, and a site for hosting community events with organizations such as the Feminist Action Collective, Trans Plus, Duluth for Clean Water, Gender Justice, and the HOTDISH Militia.",,40895,"Other, local or private",55895,,"Jamie Ratliff, Wilson Johnson, Florencia Matamoros, Taylor Kline ",,"Prøve Collective","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Two-Year Operating Support Grant",,"Prove seeks funding to stabilize and support the organization.",2017-02-01,2018-03-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Michelle,Ruszat,"Prove Collective","21 Lake Ave N",Duluth,MN,55802,"(401) 474-8627 ",info@provegallery.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"St. Louis",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/two-year-operating-support-grant-18,"Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist; Kate Fitzgerald: Program Director North Shore Music Association, writer; Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor of music at University of Minnesota-Duluth, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, former Children's Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artist, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Quentin Stille: student liaison, College Music Director at KUMD.","Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist; Kate Fitzgerald: Program Director North Shore Music Association, writer; Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor of Music at University of Minnesota-Duluth, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, former Children's Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artist, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Quentin Stille: student liaison, College Music Director at KUMD.","Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, Drew Digby (218) 722-0952 ",1

Water quality monitoring data, inclusion on the Minnesota impaired waters list, and applicable BMPs that target the pollutant of concern were considered for each analysis. In all three subwatersheds, sediment was determined to be the primary pollutant of concern for the analysis. Landowner information was compiled from existing parcel databases. Data for desktop analysis was gathered, including land use, existing known best management practices, soil types, land cover, restorable wetland inventory, stream flow networks, aerial photos, and parcel boundaries. Where land was not accessible by road or public right of way, landowner permission was sought to access land for the analysis when possible. For parcels where landowner contact was not possible or where landowners did not want to grant access, review of multiple years of aerial photography and pictometry was completed.","achieved proposed outcomes",10000,"LOCAL LEVERAGED FUNDS",40000,627,,,"Dakota SWCD","Local/Regional Government","The purpose of this project is to complete subwatershed analysis for Cannon River and Vermillion River sub-watersheds to prioritize and target Best Management Practices based on cost-effectiveness with regard to pollutant reduction.

Progress Indicator: Physical materials gathered to one location, inventory created. Status: Complete - all materials have been located and moved to the VocalEssence offices except for a small number of items owned by and housed at Minnesota Public Radio, which will be addressed in the next phase of the project. An inventory catalog was created based on the format of UMedia, where the files will eventually be stored. Intermediate: VocalEssence will gain knowledge of the scope of work required to implement Phase 2 of the project, which includes procuring rights, digitization of materials, and developing a web content delivery system. Progress Indicator: Information gathered to create an estimate of cost and revised work plan for Phase 2 in advance of 2017 Minnesota Historic and Cultural Heritage Large Grant application due date. Status: Complete - VocalEssence has the knowledge to work on applying for funding and implementing Phase 2 of the project. It was determined based on the results of this project that procuring streaming rights to the files will be more complicated and time-consuming than originally thought, so that portion of the project will be moved to a third phase, along with the web content delivery system. Long-Term: The long-term goal of this project is to develop a process for past and future complete digitization of all VocalEssence audio-visual materials, ensuring the historic preservation and making those materials available for public use. Progress Indicator: All materials delivered to the University of Minnesota Performing Arts Archive, digitally converted, and searchable and accessible to the public via the VocalEssence online repertoire database. Status: In progress - VocalEssence staff were trained by the project archivist to begin the process of cataloging and digitization of future VocalEssence recordings in order to develop a procedure for processing all incoming recordings.

35074,"Wetland Habitat Protection Program – Phase 2",2017,1629000,"ML 2016, Ch. 172, Art. 1, Sec. 2, Subd. 4(d)","$1,629,000 the second year is to the commissioner of natural resources for an agreement with Minnesota Land Trust to acquire permanent conservation easements in high-priority wetland habitat complexes in the prairie and forest/prairie transition regions. Of this amount, up to $180,000 is to establish a monitoring and enforcement fund, as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. A list of proposed easement acquisitions must be provided as part of the final report. ",,"300 wetland acres, 44 prairie acres, 571 forest acres, and 108 habitat acres for a total of 1023 acres protected in easement. ",,387000,"Landowner ",1574700,47900,,0.47,"Minnestoa Land Trust","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Protect 750 acres of high priority wetland habitat complexes in Minnesota’s Prairie/Forest-Prairie areas by securing permanent conservation easements within scientifically prioritized complexes using an innovative project ranking and payment system to maximize conservation benefit and financial leverage. ",,"Minnesota Land Trust’s Wetlands Habitat Protection Program area extends from Meeker northwest to Becker County, located along a vast glacial moraine system at the edge of the of western Minnesota. This prairie pothole country is the core of Minnesota’s “duck factory” and is central to one of North America’s most important flyways for migratory waterfowl. In this second phase of its Wetland Habitat Protection Program, the Land Trust focused its activities toward the protection of important wetland/upland complexes of habitat within the program area. In Phase 2 of this program, the Land Trust protected 1,026 acres of high priority wetland and associated upland habitats and nearly 17.56 miles of shoreland along lakes, streams and rivers by acquiring conservation easements from willing landowners. This exceeded the proposed target output by 276 acres. The Land Trust accepted one fully donated easement, negotiated bargain sale purchases on an additional four easements, and purchased four at full appraised value. Total leverage from donated value of the easements is placed at $386,975, in excess of that proposed. This value was substantiated in all nine easements through appraisals. The success of the program in producing high levels of donated value was due in part to both the high levels of interest among landowners in participating in the program, and the use of a market-based approach to incentivize landowners to contribute in this fashion. The program targeted projects that helped fill gaps in existing public ownership, contained the highest-quality habitat, and provided the greatest leverage to the state. Landowners submitted applications to the program via a RFP process, whereby proposals were evaluated based on a combination ecological factors (size of the property, condition of wetland and associated upland habitat, proximity to other protected lands, and other factors); landowners were also asked to submit the level of funding necessary for them to participate in the program. Those properties with the best ratio of environmental benefits to easement cost became the highest priority for acquisition. Nine properties were protected through this Phase 2 grant, including the following (each of which more thoroughly illustrated through a project summary sheet that is uploaded as part of this final report): Cooks Lake (Vergas Trail Timberlands, LLC) - This 116-acre property builds on a large complex of private lands protected by conservation easements along the shore of Cooks Lake in Otter Tail County. The total complex now totals 760 acres. The property protects high quality mesic hardwood forests, wetlands, and 4,072 feet of shoreline on Cooks Lake. Little Crow Lake (Kluck) - This spectacular 263-acre property encompasses nearly the entirety (13,719 feet of shoreline) of Little Crow Lake in Otter Tail County. Mesic hardwood forest, wetlands and grasslands are draped across the rugged hills of the property, providing habitat for a variety of SGCN including common loon and trumpeter swan. Little Pine Lake (Durrant) - Duel Creek, a designated trout stream, winds its way through this 164-acre forested property in Todd County. The property contains nearly all of the fishable reach (6,726 feet) of this trout stream, one of only four in Todd County. The property is dominated by hardwood forests on rugged, rolling terrain. Mineral Lake (Harris) - This 126-acre easement in Otter Tail County comprises much of a large, forested peninsula extending into Mineral Lake. Basswood-Bur Oak-(Green Ash) forests, wetlands, and 20,924 feet of shoreland are protected through this impressive property. Sauk River (Dodge-Dunker) - This 71-acre easement is one of three contiguous properties along the Sauk River in Stearns County protected through this grant. The property is a mix of floodplain forests, marshland and dry savanna on the slopes of an esker, and includes 6,321 feet of shoreline along the Sauk River. Sauk River (Klehr Trust & Klehr) - This 37-acre easement in Stearns County contains high quality floodplain forests located along nearly 2 miles of the Sauk River and its meandered channels and oxbows. Sauk River (Klehr) - This 82-acre property in Stearns County contains extensive floodplain forests along three miles of the Sauk River. The property contains a mixture of floodplain forest, marshland and dry savanna. Sauk River (Lindell) - This 77-acre easement protects nearly one-half mile of shoreline along the Sauk River and abuts the Cold Spring Heron Colony SNA in Stearns County. Restoration of a degraded fen is underway in a joint project between the Minnesota DNR, The Nature Conservancy, Minnesota Land Trust and Sauk River Watershed District. Spitzer Lake (Burkett) - This 87-acre project located on the shores of Long Lake and Spitzer Lake in Otter Tail County is part of a complex of protected lands totaling over 3,000 acres. The property contains over 9,145 feet of shoreline, mesic hardwood forest and grasslands. Landowner interest for the program has increased significantly over the course of this grant, with in excess of 50 landowners applying through our November 2018 RFP. Across Phases 1 and 2 of this program, the Land Trust has protected 2,990 acres of important wildlife habitat and 32.4 miles of shoreline, while leveraging $1,596,680 in landowner donation of easement value.

",,"With assistance from the Minnesota Outdoor Heritage Fund, in Phase II the American Bird Conservancy (ABC) Minnesota Public Lands Program continued to compete targeted young forest and brushland habitat projects on County, State, Federal, and Tribal lands with collaborative assistance of associated public and tribal agencies. These projects were implemented using science-based best management practices (BMPs) to create diverse breeding habitat for the golden-winged warbler (GWWA), American woodcock (AMWO), and associated wildlife species within the northern Minnesota focal area. This project is part of a cooperative, full life-cycle, international initiative to restore the population GWWA, which declined by 68% since 1966. Additionally, throughout its range, AMWO populations also steadily declined over the last quarter century at a rate of 1-2% per year. Project areas were located primarily in non-commercial habitat types, the vast majority being lowland or upland brush sites that contained very old and dense brush species, including alder, willow, and hazel; with alder being the most common. Stems measured 1-5” (avg. 2-3"") diameter and grew in dense clumps that had a higher aggregate diameter at the base. Average brush height was approximately 10’ within deciduous or mixed forest matrix. These closed brush canopies limited or removed the ability of ground nesting avian species such as the GWWA and AMWO to occupy sites for the purposes of nesting and brood rearing. Habitat projects concentrated on brush cutting treatments to emulate natural disturbance. Post-treatment habitat conditions included a mix of scattered and clumped tree species dominated by hardwoods that were retained as residual structure along with scattered brush. Woody retention of vertical and horizontal structural diversity depended on a suite of site level factors, including size and shape of the site, distance from forest edge, adjacent forest characteristics, and the number of trees present in a given area. When project areas did not have sufficient tree cover to maintain 10-15 mature trees per acre, well distributed clumps of brush (10-15/acre, ≥25% cover) were retained. Some larger project areas also retained undisturbed legacy patches (>0.25 acres in size). Feathered edges at the site boundaries were also emphasized to create a gradual transition into the adjacent forest when possible. Most project sites were located in brushland/forest interfaces, though a small number of projects were completed in aspen cover types to create or maintain habitat openings and multi-aged stands. The latter sites were completed using similar methodology as those described in brushland habitats in terms of treatment prescriptions and retention of residual woody structure. Monitoring efforts were completed by Cornell University and Indiana University of Pennsylvania-Research Institute and included project sites from both the ABC MN Public Lands Program (projects completed via funding from MN OHF 'Young Forest Conservation Phase I & II') and the ABC MN Private Lands Program (projects completed via funding from the NRCS Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP)). It is notable that the ABC Private Lands Program is separate and complimentary to the ABC Public Lands Program. No projects on private lands were completed with funding via MN OHF. Point count monitoring indicated that GWWA local abundance is increasing where ABC project work has occurred, and that GWWA population response has been positive to BMP implementation. Occupancy rates on shrubland project sites exceed 95% in both Western Minnesota (98% of sites; 95% CI: 92–100%) and Eastern Minnesota (97% of sites; 95% CI: 88–99%)(McNeil et al. 2020, Biological Conservation). These sites were monitored between 2015 and 2017 (with a subset of sites also monitored in 2018) and included project sites since the winter 2013-14 project season. Because most of the projects completed on private lands were timber harvests, it can be safely stated that a significant proportion (and possibly the majority) of shrubland sites monitored were located on public lands completed in Phase I or II of the MN Public Lands Program, though ABC does not have this information due to the independent nature of the study. Relative abundance on shrubland habitats rises from approximately 1.5 to 3.0 male GWWA per point count on treated vs. untreated sites, respectively (publication in peer review process). Monitoring was also begun this year to examine monarch and other pollinator responses within managed sites. AMWO also has been observed as increasing in local abundance at these project locations with 92% of treated sites across all public and private lands project sites occupied by AMWO, at a density of 0.516 singing males/ha observed on shrubland sites. In Phase II, the ABC Public Lands Coordinator continued expand ABC's partner base throughout northern Minnesota by engaging public and tribal lands partner agencies in project design and implementation and by participating in educational workshops. It quickly became apparent in Phase I and continued to be evident in Phase II that public and tribal lands agencies had a need and interest to complete habitat projects of this type. As a result, the number of project partners has grown every year since the inception this program. Natural resource managers across county, state, federal, and tribal partners have expressed that ABC is filling a much needed role in Minnesota forest conservation, implementing projects that otherwise would not be completed. As a driving force in cooperative forest conservation, ABC was also a founding member of the Minnesota Forest Habitat Collaborative (MFHC). The MFHC was created to provide a round table community forum to identify, promote, and deliver collaborative conservation, outreach, and research programs that assist natural resource managers across jurisdictional and ownership boundaries to maintain, enhance, and restore MN’s forest habitat for the benefit of associated resident and migratory wildlife species.

The Mazinaakizige: American Indian Teen Photography Program welcomed six American Indian high school students who investigated historic and contemporary images of American Indians, learned digital photography, and created a gallery show to interpret the theme ""Powerful."" The opening was held at the Two Rivers Gallery on Dec. 9, 2016, with the gallery donating the space, announcement postcards and frames for the prints. The student show will also be displayed at Minneapolis Central Library starting Feb. 8, 2017 and the Minnesota History Center and Mille Lacs Indian Museum & Trading Post in spring and summer 2017. The Summer Technology Workshop highlights career readiness through a community-identified assessment of technology skills needs. Students explored the Google suite of tools and web design through immersive opportunities held at the Minnesota History Center and Saint Paul College. Students explored Latino representation in the historical record and identified topics for future in-depth research. They created 10-minute documentaries and websites. The goal of the Teen Advisory Council is to increase a teen presence and voice at MNHS. The council works with community advisers such as the Minnesota Council on Latino Affairs to create teen-produced programming for MNHS family day events. Students learn about the history of the community and issues surrounding diverse narratives. They create original programs and performances (such as spoken word and webinars) with guidance from community advisers and MNHS staff. Students learned about what it means to be a Minnesotan and how to present those narratives in a museum setting. This year staff worked at Mill City Museum to develop Waariyan: Somali Youth in Minnesota, which encouraged Somali high school students to explore their identities as Minnesotans through food, storytelling and cultural resources. Using oral histories, video editing software, historical research and career-readiness curriculum, students compiled research into a cookbook to be published by MNHS Press in 2018.",,,2016-07-01,2017-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,MNHS,Legacy,"Minnesota Historical Society","345 Kellogg Blvd. W","Saint Paul",MN,55102,651-259-3105,,Education/Outreach/Engagement,"Minnesota Historical Society",,"Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/youth-partnerships-0,,,,
