10007223,"1917 - 1918 Exhibits Research",2017,8180,,,"Available upon request. 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.

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

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

These projects are good examples of the benefits of OHF. Low diversity grasslands provide some habitat for wildlife. These funds allow us to enhance and improve these habitats, going above and beyond what we could do without these funds. By far our most effective management tool is prescribed fire and we were able to burn over 48,000 acres, just over 75 square miles, with these funds.Our acre estimate is probably a low number, especially for woody removal. Trees in grasslands affect both the immediate area as well as the surrounding area. Generally we remove trees to increase nest success in the surrounding areas. While we may only record one acre of tree removal, we’re enhancing nest success for an entire WMA.This was the fourth appropriation for the DNR's programmatic Grassland Enhancement efforts. The primary focus for the Wildlife Section of this appropriation was the use of two Roving Crews, in Region One (located in Polk County) and Region 3 (located in Dakota County). Roving Crews are self-contained habitat enhancement programs. One hundred percent of their time is dedicated to habitat enhancement. In addition, we worked with local contractors to do additional habitat work on WMAs and SNAs.Division of Ecological and Water Resource staff funded on this appropriation did a variety of tasks, including writing contracts for woody removal projects and prescribed burns, firebreak installation, prescribed burn planning and execution, prairie reconstruction, and smaller invasive removal projects. CCM crews were contracted for many projects to add additional abilities. Specifically noteworthy, southern region EWR hires a CCM crew for several weeks in the spring each year to build support into the DNR burn crew (there would not be enough staff for a crew without CCM).In addition to these data, we also provide the following narratives showing the outputs and outcomes of several of the projects on the parcel list.The Cuka WMA project involved the removal of scattered invasive volunteer trees from 130 acres of native and restored prairie. A DNR survey on June 11, 2013 revealed the presence of at least 508 individual clusters of Small White Lady Slipper orchids. The orchid is abundant on Cuka WMA and this tree removal was management that is a direct positive for the preservation of this species. The removal of predator perches and den trees was one objective that appears to have been successfully met based upon the pheasant production that has been observed on this unit in recent years. One hunter has harvested a 2 bird limit on every pheasant opener for the last four years.A large portion of Benson WMA was already a quality restored grassland and wetland complex when acquired, but had thousands of trees covering the WMA. Without treatment, the site would have soon lost its open nature and grassland wildlife. The site includes a very high quality remnant prairie that we use to harvest local ecotype seed for nearby WMA restorations.Two Rivers Aspen Parkland SNA is a 1400 acre high quality brush prairie that was being invaded by aspen. This transition can be devastating to many wildlife species, particularly sharp tailed grouse as they tend to abandon these areas once they transition. After the prescribed burn and woody removal projects, there was a significant increase in sharp tailed grouse observations.Sweetwater WMA has two tracts totaling 430 acres. These tracts are part of a contiguous complex of public lands, including roughly 1,000 acres of Waterfowl Production Areas and 500 acres of WMA in the heart of Lac qui Parle County – an area with a rich history of waterfowl and upland bird hunting. The tree removal work on Sweetwater WMA compliments ongoing habitat acquisitions, restorations and enhancements being done in this area through partnerships among USFWS, MNDNR, TNC, PF and DU.Cooperative Farming Agreement fields totaling nineteen acres on four WMAs in the south Metro were retired. The fields were planted to a diverse mix native grasses and forbs. This will benefit pollinators as well as providing additional nesting cover. These WMAs are relatively close to the Metro Area, proving both wildlife habitat as well as hunting and other recreational opportunities for Twin Cities residents.Because this is a programmatic appropriation, it’s difficult to assign a dollar amount to a specific project. Because of this and the large number of projects, we simply assigned dollars to projects proportional to acres completed in that project.

Legacy funds help us implement this program bridge barriers that keep people from connecting with all the Zoo has to offer. Access Services The Zoo is committed to ensuring that economic circumstances are not obstacles to experiencing the Minnesota Zoo. With Legacy support the Zoo recently created the position of Community Relations Coordinator, a position responsible for the statutorily-mandated free ticket program for economically disadvantaged Minnesotans, all aspects of ADA compliance, and other programs related to accessibility of the Zoo. Lifelong Learning The Minnesota Zoo is not just for children! Legacy funding supports a number of programs aimed at supporting and expanding Zoo programs for adults. This includes a recently introduced adults only program, “Adult Night Out.” These age 18+ evening events offer an after-hours experience for working and older adults who might not otherwise visit the Zoo. This program also incorporates the Our World Speaker Series designed to engage guests in conservation issues. These lectures are offered free of charge to all attendees, ensuring access for all interested guests. The Zoo is also offering a number of adult education programs that focus on special interest areas such as Zoo horticulture and wildlife photography. These programs serve a range of adult audiences including seniors, corporate groups, and young adults. Strategic Communications In an effort to help Zoo guests care more and do more for conservation, this project was designed to test and implement zoo-based conservation messaging that would encourage people to act for wildlife. The Zoo began implementing its new brand strategy “Where Amazing Lives. Every Day.” This campaign creates a consistent story throughout the Zoo. Expanded Zoomobile Geography can be a barrier to accessing high quality environmental education programs. The Zoomobile program exists to serve people who cannot visit the Minnesota Zoo by bringing the Zoo to them, regardless of where they live in Minnesota. 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.

The Minnesota Humanities Center must operate a competitive grants program to provide grants to programs that preserve and honor the cultural heritage of Minnesota or that provide education and student outreach on cultural diversity or to programs that empower communities to build their identity and culture. Priority must be given to grants for individuals and organizations working to create, celebrate, and teach indigenous arts and cultural activities and arts organizations and programs preserving, sharing, and educating on the arts and cultural heritage of immigrant communities in Minnesota. ","At a workshop AdopteeBridge held in January 2020, we sent a survey to participants. We will send out a similar survey to retreat participants to see their likes, dislikes, and recommendations for future retreats.   We asked for feedback regarding the following topics: --Logistics --Size of workshop --Sessions & activities --Possible future activities --Suggestions and concerns After each retreat, we will send a similar survey.   It is very important for AdopteeBridge to introduce our programs, including the OurHistory Retreat, to adoptees we previously have not had contact with, but to also continue building the relationships and community formed. Therefore, we will add a section in the survey of the following: --What AdopteeBridge programs do individuals participate in? --Is this the first OurHistory Retreat or are they a returning participant?   We will add a section to include the following: --Does the participant plan to attend the next retreat?--We expect a retention rate of 50% returning participants and the other 50% will be new participants. --Did the retreat enable the participant to connect with other adoptees?--We expect a response of 90-100% --Did the retreat enable the participant to reflect on their adoption journey?--We expect a response of 90-100% --Did the retreat and the participants validate your adoption journey?--We expect a response of 90-100%   For the first retreat, we will compare survey results to the results received from the January 2020 Workshop. Our goal is to receive a rating of 75% or higher in regards to positive feedback for activities held during the retreats. For potential activities that receive an interest of 75% or higher, our staff will seriously consider to plan for a future retreat. At AdopteeBridge, it is very important to also receive written feedback--this helps us hear directly from the individuals we work with to hear their thoughts and ideas for future programming.

This appropriation is available until June 30, 2013, by which time the project must be completed and final products delivered.","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".",,,,,,,,"U of MN","Public College/University","PROJECT OVERVIEW Biomass-based energy holds important potential as a viable renewable alternative to non-renewable fossil-based energy supplies; however significant challenges to biomass energy technologies remain to be overcome before such a role can be achieved at a large scale. Researchers at the University of Minnesota's Center for Biorefining, in partnership with the Metropolitan Council, are using this appropriation to develop, build, and test a pilot scale fuel production system that uses the nutrients in sewage wastewater to grow algae that can then be harvested to produce biodiesel. Additional benefits resulting from the system may include improved water quality, minimized freshwater and land use, reduced carbon emissions, and capture and recycling of plant nutrients. With additional research and development of this system it could potentially be implemented at other wastewater treatment facilities and adapted to other waste streams throughout Minnesota and beyond. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Current biomass energy technologies have encountered economic, ecological, and policy concerns, including feed stock procurement, energy balance, carbon footprint, competition for food and fuel, water use, and others. This project was built on our existing collaborative R&D partnership to demonstrate an innovative photosynthetic algae production system which simultaneously produces high lipid oil for bio-fuel production, captures and recycles nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater, and sequesters carbon dioxide. The goal of the project was to develop, build, and test a pilot scale algae production system that will treat concentrated wastewater and animal facility wastewater and generate algal biomass for production of biofuels and bioproducts. More than 10 high performance algae strains have been developed for specific applications such as oil accumulation, nutrient removal, growth under low temperature and low light conditions, and accumulation of high value lipids. Growth conditions were optimized for specific applications. A pilot cultivation facility with a cultivation volume of 20,000 liters was developed and demonstrated. The microwave assisted pyrolysis was found to be an excellent conversion alternative to conventional oil extraction based biodiesel process, and the hydrothermal process is a cost effective pretreatment technology to improve dewatering of algal biomass. The life cycle analysis results indicate that our technologies, which integrate wastewater into algal cultivation, can improve the environmental performance of algal biofuels. The life cycle analysis study also suggests that utilization of multiple major waste streams in wastewater plants should be developed to maximize the economic and environmental benefits of algae based technologies. The outcomes of the project point to a great potential of algae technologies for simultaneous removal of nitrogen, phosphorus, chemical oxygen demand (COD), and other nutrients in municipal and animal wastewaters; sequestration of carbons in organic matters and flue gas; and at the same time accumulation of biomass for production of high vale biofuels and bioproducts. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Information about the project results were disseminated through more than 10 presentations at national and international conferences, five demonstrations to stakeholders, eleven peer-reviewed journal publications, and through a website: http://biorefining.cfans.umn.edu.",,"FINAL REPORT",2010-07-01,2013-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Roger,Ruan,"U of MN","1390 Eckles Ave","St. Paul",MN,55108,"(612) 625-1710",ruanx001@umn.edu,,"University of Minnesota ",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/algae-fuels-pilot-project,,,,

Outcomes: * The Works Museum will develop a new Family Engineering Event activity station through which children and families will interact with the five cultures through the lens of engineering. * All children and families, including those from non-dominant communities, will make personal connections to STEM and engineering, as well as see these cultures represented in The Works Museum's STEM programs. Goal 2: To increase access to impactful STEM education experiences that promote equity and inclusion, especially for communities underrepresented in STEM, including children and families from non-dominant cultures, people of color, English-language learners, low-income families and under-resourced schools. Outcomes: * Through a new Outreach Program, The Works Museum will form and invest in new relationships with communities underrepresented and underserved in STEM, with a broad geographic reach including both the Twin Cities metro area and communities in Greater Minnesota. * The organization will successfully work with each new partner to understand opportunities and address barriers to participating in STEM. * Deliver workshops aligned with the Minnesota K-12 Academic Standards in Science to 2,700 elementary students through the Outreach Program. * Deliver Family Engineering Event programs supporting STEM curriculum and including the new activity station to 3,600 children and family members in the new partner communities through the Outreach Program. Goal 3: To better serve all Minnesotans - and especially those facing STEM opportunity gaps - by formalizing relationship-based, community-driven outreach as a core practice of The Works Museum. Outcomes: * The Works will successfully implement a new relationship-based Outreach Program, building new connections in communities underserved by STEM. * The project design and delivery will incorporate important inclusion practices, including collaborating directly with the communities we serve and fostering a sense of common belonging in the engineering community. * The program will reduce barriers associated with access including geography, perceptions of not being welcome, transportation costs, or field trip logistical challenges such as limited time in the school schedule. * The Works Museum will increase our capacity to continue doing this work, forming ongoing and long-lasting relationships and building trust with new partners, providing an important foundation to continue to amplify our impact. We all have a place in STEM is a meaningful next step in our organization's journey to address equity and inclusion in STEM education.

Yet, for many Minnesotans - particularly communities underrepresented in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) - STEM learning experiences are less accessible, or feel like ?a place that's not for people like me.We all have a place in STEM addresses equity and inclusion in STEM by a) developing a new activity station for The Works Museum's Family Engineering Events that explores the Dakota, Ojibwe, Hmong, Mexican, and Somali cultures through the lens of engineering and b) creating a community-driven Outreach Program to bring learning experiences directly to Minnesota communities.

Past visits have included Mille Lacs, Leech Lake, and Grand Portage. In FY16, this effort will continue with visits to Fond du Lac and Red Lake. MNHS believes that meaningful partnerships with tribal communities are the key to successful stewardship. In FY16, collections staff has continued to partner with American Indian communities in a number of significant ways, including providing access to collections at the History Center, as well as in communities throughout the state. Outreach efforts include engaging colleagues and community members through participation in a regional conference, the Convening Great Lakes Culture Keepers Regional Institute, supporting indigenous nonprofit organizations (like Twin Cities Native Lacrosse) and facilitating tours for artists, researchers, students, educators, and interested community members. Two highlights this fiscal year include the display of historic and contemporary native material culture at the Owamni/Falling Waters Festival",,,2015-07-01,2016-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,MNHS,Legacy,"Minnesota Historical Society","345 Kellogg Blvd. W","Saint Paul",MN,55102,651-259-3105,,"Digitization/Online Information Access, Education/Outreach/Engagement","Minnesota Historical Society",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/american-indian-outreach,,,,

The archivist has also removed the physical books from regular public access to ensure their long-term preservation and limit who has regular access to the material. The archivist will be writing a blog post which will be shared in the weekly Conference newsletter to announce to the wider Minnesota Methodist church community that journals are now available online. A display highlighting the completed project will also be done at the MN Annual Conference on May 24-25, 2022. This display will reach the majority of MN United Methodist Clergy and other Methodists from around the state. Additionally, the archivist has been communicating and directing individuals to the online journals so they can conduct their own research. The initial feedback received from Pastors and others has been extremely positive and individuals shared their excitement to have easier and quicker access to the journals. Since January 2021, the archivist has been tracking the inquiries that require the use of the journals. Between January 2021 and February 2022 there have been 26 inquiries that required journal use. This number will be the baseline to measure if use increases or decreases over the coming year. The journals were sent out for digitization in September 2021 and not received back until March 2022, so it is not possible to determine the impact of the digitization at this point but having a baseline number will allow the archivist to compare numbers in the coming year. These numbers have been and will continued to be shared with the leadership. Overall, the digitization project has been successful for our organization and those we serve. It has provided the archivist with quicker and more efficient access to the journals. In the initial months of the pandemic, there was no access to the physical copies of the journals, and questions with information found in the journals had to be delayed. If the digital copies had been available prior to the pandemic, this could have been avoided. In the short time that digital copies of the journal have been available, the archivist has been able to provide a timelier response to journal-related questions, especially on days that I have not be in the office or working offsite. The communication team has been using the journals for various historical-related questions they traditionally ask of the archivist. Additionally, the database team has been using the journals to assist in various projects in the database system including updating clergy service records, tracking church name changes, and church mergers.

As a condition of receiving this appropriation, the University of Minnesota is requested to collaborate with the commissioner of natural resources in developing solutions to control aquatic invasive species. A portion of this appropriation may be used for educating and engaging citizens on preventing the spread of aquatic invasive species. Money appropriated in this section may not be spent on activities unless they are directly related to and necessary for the purposes of this section. Money appropriated in this section must not be spent on indirect costs or other institutional overhead charges that are not directly related to and necessary for the purposes of this section. This is a onetime appropriation and is available until June 30, 2018. Minnesota Statutes, section 116P.10, applies to this appropriation. For the purpose of this appropriation, the term ""fund"" means the clean water fund and the term ""commission"" means the Clean Water Council as used in Minnesota Statutes, section 116P.10. ","The University will use this initial funding to develop and implement the administrative structure for the center, conduct strategic planning, establish and renovate its facilities, buy equipment, hire a zebra mussel researcher and start studies of zebra mussels designed to prevent and control this species, launch and facilitate additional research to find solutions to high priority AIS, and conduct education and citizen engagement activities.","The Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center (MAISRC) has successfully been established. A center advisory board (CAB) was created and a 10 year strategic plan to reduce the impacts of AIS in Minnesota was developed and is now being implemented. An inter-agency technical committee was created that, together with the CAB, continues to provide guidance to the Center’s leadership. Through funding research projects and hiring staff, the Center now has approximately 40 faculty, students, and staff conducting 36 research projects and ensuring smooth Center operations. While most of this personnel is supported with Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF) and other dollars, the Clean Water Fund has been used to support a portion of the Director’s salary as well as the full time zebra mussel faculty researcher position, his research program, and additional research on high priority topics. The faculty level zebra mussel researcher was hired with Clean Water Funds in 2013 and he has nearly completed the first phase of his research program to understand the threat of zebra mussels in order to prevent and control them in Minnesota. Research completed includes sequencing a draft genome of this organism, using genetics to understand how spread is occurring around the state, developing a new early detection technique for both zebra and quagga mussels, and developing protocols for evaluating effectiveness of open water trials of mulluscicide treatments. The MAISRC facilities have now also been renovated. Clean Water Funds were used with a portion of our ENRTF 2012 appropriation, a 2014 bonding appropriation, and University of Minnesota funds to renovate a 10,000 square foot space into a state-of-the-art research lab where we can tackle the state’s foremost AIS issues. A truck, a pontoon boat, and a high pressure washer have also been procured to allow us to conduct critical field research. Additional research and education/citizen engagement conducted with Clean Water Funds: •Collaborated with the Minnesota DNR to model and analyze the density of carp in isolated and connected lakes to demonstrate the importance of partial migration to common carp success in Minnesota Lakes. The modeling also examined whether or not it is feasible to control carp by manipulating the frequency of stochastic events or preventing/limiting movement among lakes.

Phenology – the timing of seasonal biological events such as budburst, flowering, bird migration, and leaf coloring – provides a tested indicator of climate change response by plants and animals. A rich source of phenology datasets exists independently throughout the state, but these datasets are not compiled in a centralized manner. Furthermore, ongoing collection of phenology data is a cost efficient task that, done in an organized manner, can continue to provide valuable long-term evidence of climate change response.

A number of Minnesota's migratory bird species spend parts of their lives in the areas impacted by the spill and impacts on their populations in the state could become evident over time. Impacts could be from immediate losses of birds that were present at the time of the spill or from cumulative negative effects resulting from contamination of the food chain by petroleum chemicals and the dispersants used on the oil. The two Minnesota species that are potentially most vulnerable are the common loon and the American white pelican; some of their young would have been present in the Gulf at the time of the spill and their behavior and feeding patterns put them at greater risk of exposure to chemicals from the spill persisting in the environment. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is using this appropriation to continue efforts aimed at determining whether or not common loon or American white pelican populations in Minnesota have been impacted by the Gulf oil spill. Phase one revealed that there were population losses following the spill and that a significant percentage of Minnesota loons and pelicans have been exposed to oil and dispersant contaminants, which may be having long-term effects by causing changes in behavior, migratory abilities, reproductive success, or longevity. Any impacts documented will be critical for receiving remediation funds from the Federal Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) process currently underway, and those funds could be used to help restore the populations of these two species.",,http://www.lccmr.leg.mn/projects/2014/work_plans/2014_05g.pdf,2014-07-01,2016-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Carrol,Henderson,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Rd, Box 25","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5104",carrol.henderson@state.mn.us,,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/assessing-contaminants-minnesotas-loons-and-pelicans-phase-2-0,,,,

Recent research surveying Minnesota lakes found that the most frequent occurrence of these chemicals was in lakes with a high density of septic systems. In river ecosystems some of these chemicals have been known to cause extinction of forage fish species and abnormal sexual development in other fish species, such as bass and walleye. However, little is known about how these compounds affect fish populations in lake ecosystems. Researchers from the U.S. Geological Survey, St. Cloud State University, and the Minnesota Department of Health will cooperatively use this appropriation to help assess which of these chemicals are most frequently present in lakes with high septic system concentration and determine whether native fish populations are being affected. Part of this appropriation will help pay for specialized equipment to study these chemical compounds, expanding the capability of the research laboratory at the Department of Health. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The current study (1) sampled 20 Minnesota lakes that receive groundwater under the potential influence of septic systems to determine the occurrence of pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs) and endocrine active compounds (EACs), (2) assessed watershed and groundwater characteristics that may contribute to the frequency of PhAC and EAC detections, (3) assessed the histo-pathology of actively spawning bluegill sunfish for biomarkers of EAC exposure to compounds in the near-shore zone of four target lakes, and (4) enhanced EAC analytical capabilities at the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) through the purchase of new analytical equipment. Study lakes were chosen based on depth to water table, septic system density regardless of functionality, bluegill nesting habitat, and groundwater temperature surveys in the near-shore zone. Lake water or lake-sediment pore water (water stored between sediment particles,contained within the lake-bed sediment) samples were collected and analyzed for a broad suite of 179 PhACs, EACs, and other waste compounds. All surface water samples and over three quarters of pore water samples had at least one compound detected. Overall, 43 of 69 (62%) waste compounds and 5 of 110 (4%) pharmaceuticals were detected in all samples. Twelve known or suspected endocrine active compounds were detected in at least one lake. On average, the prevalence of detections normalized to the number of compounds tested was three to four times higher in near-shore lake water than in near-shore pore water. Actively spawning male bluegill sunfish were collected from reference and groundwater discharge sites in four lakes. Pathologies were more common in fish collected at near-shore sites when compared to fish collected across entire lakes in the 2008 statewide study. The greater abundance of indicators of adverse biological impact suggests that a lake-wide sampling of fish will underestimate the impact of contaminant exposure to fish during reproductively important life stages.

The initial project findings suggested two potential knowledge gaps in our understanding of EACs and their effects in lake environments. First, the sources of EACs and their entrance points into lakes need to be better defined than was possible in our previous statewide lake study. Second, fish habitats within the littoral zone of lakes where greatest biological production occurs, need to be matched with detailed, site-specific exposure patterns. SCSU will test the hypothesis that Biological Responses in Fish are Correlated with Microhabitat Exposure to Endocrine Active Compounds (EACs) within a lake rather then Mean EAC Exposure Across a Lake during this study.

These technical strategies and reports have been used thus far by over two thirds of watersheds when developing comprehensive local water plans known as “One Watershed, One Plan” (1W1P). Local watershed strategies and plans largely focus on priority waters within their area, but additionally are one of the ways that larger-scale nutrient strategies, such as the NRS, are implemented locally for water quality needs downstream of the watersheds. This project will review the watershed documents to find nutrient related content that will inform the NRS revision process, so that the collective learnings and ideas from these local efforts can be used to improve Minnesota’s NRS. Additionally, the project will identify how state-level nutrient reduction efforts could help support nutrient reduction at the local level, by providing specific types of information, web-site tools and dashboards, and other resources.  ",,"Watershed approach to water quality Reducing nutrients in waters   ",2024-03-08,2024-11-08,"Clean Water Fund","In Progress",,,Corrie,Layfield,"Minnesota Pollution Control Agency ","520 Lafayette Rd N","Saint Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 757-2317",,Assessment/Evaluation,"Minnesota Pollution Control Agency",,Statewide,,Statewide,https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/assessing-watershed-work-address-nutrients,,,,

However, the water and habitat quality of Minnesota's shallow lakes have been deteriorating over the past century. Through this appropriation, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources will coordinate with a number of partner organizations to evaluate the causes of deterioration along with the effectiveness of current management practices in five ecological regions of the state. Findings will be used to identify the most cost-effective approaches for maintaining and restoring shallow lakes and for developing region-specific guides for sustainable shallow lake management. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Minnesota's shallow lakes provide numerous direct human benefits such as clean water, hydrologic storage to limit flooding, recreational opportunities, and access to unique wild areas. They also contribute many valuable ecosystem services including carbon sequestration, habitat for native species, and unique recreational opportunities. Unfortunately, water and habitat quality of Minnesota's shallow lakes have deteriorated dramatically during the past century. Conversion from native upland covers, widespread wetland drainage and surface-water consolidation to facilitate agricultural and urban/residential development have been implicated as major causes for these changes. To facilitate better conservation of these areas, we studied approximately 140 shallow lakes in 5 ecological regions of Minnesota to:Identify major factors leading to deterioration.Evaluate results of specific lake restoration approaches, including cost-effectiveness of various combinations of lake management strategies.Assess the impacts of increased surface water connectivity on fish invasions and resulting habitat quality.Our efforts included: comprehensive sampling of shallow lakes to identify direct and indirect causes of deterioration, evaluation of approximately eight lakes currently undergoing rehabilitation, and economic analyses to help managers identify which restoration strategies are likely to produce the greatest improvements in water quality and other lake characteristics per unit cost. Our key findings were as follows:High nutrient levels and dense populations of undesirable fishes favor water quality deterioration. These influences increase along a NE-SW gradient. Turbid lakes more often occur in prairie than in forested regions.Fish removal via rotenone, water control structures, and drawdowns improve water quality and wildlife habitat. Deteriorated conditions often recur; this underscores need for long-term approaches that reduce nutrient loading.Fish removal via rotenone and drawdown are effective methods for improving lakes in the short-term (5-10 years). Because improvements may not persist, watershed restoration to reduce nutrient loading is also necessary. More monitoring of rehabilitated lakes is necessary. Region-specific guidelines are not yet possible, but in-lake measures will be most beneficial in short-term, regardless of where lakes are located.Limiting surface connectivity is critical to controlling distribution of undesirable fishes including invasive species.These findings were used to develop improved modeling and produced a series of recommendations to guide future efforts to maintain and rehabilitate shallow lakes throughout Minnesota. This information is being disseminated through future presentations and publications and through the Minnesota DNR Data Deli website (http://deli.dnr.state.mn.us). PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION We anticipate preparation of 5-8 peer reviewed manuscripts to be developed from data gathering and analyses completed during the present study. We are also planning to develop a shallow lake workshop for lake managers and other conservation partners to be held in central Minnesota during July or August 2013. We expect to offer a day-long technical program that will center on results of the present LCCMR-funded research, allow discussion of lake rehabilitation strategies, and will offer opportunities for project managers and collaborators to present study findings directly to lake and landscape managers and other conservation partners in Minnesota. Presently, the Minnesota Chapter of the Wildlife Society has agreed to sponsor this workshop and to coordinate meeting and facilities requirements. Results and synthesis from this work have been presented at annual meetings of the American Society of Limnology (Lake Biwa, Shiga, Japan, July 2012), the Ecological Society of America (Portland, Oregon, Aug 2012), and at various regional meetings of DNR staff and others.

The two plants are considered to be the species of highest priority for development of long-term management solutions, such as biological control, which involves using natural enemies of a non-native species from its native region to control or reduce the impact of the species in the areas where they are invasive. Introducing one non-native species to control another, though, is something that must be done with care so that the introduction doesn't have unintended consequences. This appropriation is enabling the Minnesota Departments of Natural Resources and Agriculture to continue to research and evaluate biological control options for European buckthorn and garlic mustard. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS European/common buckthorn (Rhamnus cathartica) and garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata) are non-native invasive plants that severely threaten native plant communities and degrade wildlife habitat. They are widely distributed in the state and current control options, such as mechanical and chemical control, are labor and cost-intensive. They are of the highest priority for development of long-term management solutions, such as biological control. The purpose of this research was to determine 1) if there are suitable insects that can be used to reduce impacts caused by buckthorn and 2) implement introduction of insects to control garlic mustard and assess their establishment and success. Over 30 specialized insects were identified as potential common buckthorn biocontrol. Most of these species were discarded because they lacked host-specificity. Two psyllids were host-specific, but did not cause significant damage to buckthorn and the insects were infected with the plant disease 'Candidatus Phytoplasma rhamni' (buckthorn witches' broom). A seed-feeding midge proved too difficult to work with in a research setting. After 11 years of searching for a biological control insect that is host-specific and damaging to buckthorn, we conclude that there are not promising agents at this time. Four Ceutorhynchus weevil species are being studied as biological control agents for garlic mustard. Petitions for release were submitted to the USDA-APHIS Technical Advisory Group starting in 2008, but they have requested additional host-specificity testing over time. No biological control insects have been approved for release as of 2014. Studies conducted in the University of Minnesota Containment Facility allowed the development of efficient and consistently reliable methods to rear C. scrobicollis from garlic mustard plants. Long-term monitoring at twelve sites in Minnesota shows that garlic mustard populations can fluctuate widely from year to year. There is little garlic mustard herbivory in Minnesota. Garlic mustard cover is negatively correlated with cover of other species. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Buckthorn biological control research has been disseminated in one peer reviewed journal publication, a summary report by CABI, four poster presentations, and a webpage on the DNR website: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/invasives/terrestrialplants/woody/buckthorn/biocontrol.html.

Funds are to be distributed through a competitive grant process. The Minnesota Historical Society must administer these funds using established grant mechanisms, with assistance from the advisory committee created under Laws 2009, chapter 172, article 4, section 2, subdivision 4, paragraph (b), item (ii).","Available upon request. grants@mnhs.org","For the short term, we expected that the project would allow the collection to be more accessible to staff and researchers. In recent months, researchers have reached out to us about twice a month to inquire about pieces in the collection, general inquiries, and requested for image permissions. In the past it had always taken the staff many weeks to respond because locating images and information took so much time. Now, staff can enter the name or title or object ID number, and if it is an image that is digitized a high resolution image will come up and be ready to be processed for the request. It was always an anxiety ridden process, now it's so simple to show many different images to people knowing that we already have license clearance and high resolution images. Additionally, with the Omeka website, we are receiving more requests from other Museums, curators, researchers, and estates than before. Much of it is because the form makes it easier for staff to be accessible and because there is information about the pieces readily available online. We anticipate that with more artworks online, we will be able to reach more people and provide the access to the collection in a way that we haven't been able to for decades. The intermediate term is we hoped that the images would be a good tool for educational staff. Programs are still being created for the next year and in relation to new exhibition. There hasn't been an educational program created with the images yet. However, some images were used on out mobile platform during previous exhibitions. The M has a mobile platform that is an extension of the interpretation in the exhibitions and visitors can learn more about the piece, artist, or something related to the piece in the exhibition. We anticipate that when the M's permanent collection is on exhibit in the future that the website and digitization of the collection will be an essential asset to the interpretation. For the long term, we hoped that this process would become a model for us to use going forward as we digitize the 4,500 works in the collection in the future.

We also posted it on the Center for Hmong Studies webpage at https://hmongcenter.csp.edu/. Mr. Jason Schoonover also posted the weblinks to his page as well as send it to his email networks.   The response was overwhelming. Here are some of the comments after viewing the exhibit: Very complex embroidery design. it is extraordinary! They bring back lots of memories. We don't get to see those original baby carriers anymore. That's amazing! I'm glad we have collectors who have held on to relics to share with the public. Hope to see these in the future when I visit the center. Wow! So many unique designs!! Very nice!! I would like to see larger versions! Wonderful!!!   Some of the textiles was borrowed by ArtReach St. Croix in Stillwater, Minnesota for an exhibit that started in May 2021 and ended the first week of July 2021.   Since we were not able to do a physical exhibit and opted for a hybrid exhibit model due to the pandemic, we were able to realize some cost savings. As such, we decided to acquire six large paintings by Minnesota artist Jackie Yang. The paintings are historically significant because it depicted the Hmong-Minnesotan's role in partnering with the United States during the Secret War of Laos in saving American lives. These paintings were on loan to the Center for Hmong Studies, but we were able to negotiate a reasonable price for the acquisition of them.

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.

Most Minnesota history museums' software runs on an obsolete database, which puts collection data at risk. The task force determined CollectiveAccess, a free, open-source, web-based collections management system currently in use by a wide range of museums, would be the best solution. In 2017, the Minnesota Alliance of Local History Museums (MALHM) received a Heritage Partnership Program grant to launch a pilot program using CollectiveAccess. The five pilot sites worked with the Minnesota local history museum community to develop a customized Minnesota version of CollectiveAccess. The pilot sites have converted their collection data to CollectiveAccess and have used it exclusively and successfully for about a year. For this 2019 grant, MALHM and ten partnership sites will develop a process to ensure the success of new users to CollectiveAccess Minnesota. The goals for this project include 1) Establishing an application system to add new users to CollectiveAccess Minnesota to ensure organizations have the appropriate personnel and financial capacity to join the software community, 2) Developing a training program and appropriate manuals and tutorials to provide a base level of proficiency to users, and 3) Developing an ongoing support program to meet the needs of users and answer questions promptly.",2019-06-01,2020-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ann,Grandy,"Minnesota Alliance of Local History Museums","c/o Hormel Historic Home, 208 4th Ave. NW",Austin,MN,55912,"(320) 424-2604",collectiveaccess@mnhistoryalliance.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Historical Society",,"Statewide, Goodhue, Hennepin, Kandiyohi, Mower, Pope, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/collectiveaccess-minnesota-training-support-development,,"Visit https://www.mnhs.org/about/leadership","For more information about Advisory Group Members and conflicts of interest disclosures, please contact: Carolyn Veeser-Egbide Grants Manager Minnesota Historical Society 651-259-3469 carolyn.veeser-egbide@mnhs.org",Yes

In interviews with attendees at the Minnesota State Fair in 2018, it was discovered that very few people knew there was an independent Farmer-Labor Party before the 1944 merger. Fewer still knew about the movement's goals or the enduring progressive legacy that the movement established for the people of the state. This documentary helps remedy this lack of awareness and inspires people about what can be achieved by a grassroots movement.

To date, surveys for nearly all counties in the state have been completed. Soils data is used by governments, farmers, and other businesses for a number of purposes from protection and restoration of soil, water, wetlands, and habitats to agricultural productivity and soil management to building construction. This appropriation will complete the mapping and digitization of soil surveys for Crow Wing, Koochiching, Lake, Cook, and Saint Louis counties. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS This project, Completion of Statewide Digital Soil Survey, is the last in a series of projects to map and digitize all Minnesota soils. The Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF) has supported the completion of a statewide soil survey since 1997. ENRTF's contribution of $3.5 million over 17 years leveraged $13.2 million from project partners including cooperating counties, the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), and the University of Minnesota. Soil surveys contain information essential to the management of natural resources. Soil surveys provide a field-based scientific inventory of soil resources, including soil maps, data about the physical and chemical properties of soils, and information on the potentials and limitations of each soil. Farmers, landowners, builders, county assessors, and natural resource managers depend on soil survey information to conduct business and protect natural resources. This project extended soil maps and data to millions of acres previously lacking comprehensive soil surveys. It is ideal to have 'seamless' soil data coverage regardless of land ownership (county, state, federal, or private). However, gaps exist in soil survey coverage due to these land ownership issues. This project focused on addressing portions of Minnesota with missing digital soils information; e.g., the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, the Superior National Forest, and Crow Wing County. At the end of the final mapping phase (NRCS contributions extend to 2016) Pine County and the Grand Portage Reservation will be the only unmapped areas in Minnesota. NRCS intends to map Pine County in the future, funded entirely by the NRCS. The mapping goal for the ENTRF funds was 400,000 acres. NRCS mapped over 2 million acres using ENTRF dollars and Federal funds. This included 207,546 acres in Crow Wing County; 470,000 in Lake and Cook Counties (outside Superior National Forest boundary); 793,725 acres in Lake, Cook, and St. Louis Counties (inside Superior National Forest boundary); and 600,000 in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.

",,,,,,,,,,,,"Connecting People to the Outdoors - A Parks and Trails Strategic Objective is a program area representing DNR's commitment to one of the four pillars identified in the 25 year Legacy plan. The Legacy plan identifies its purpose to better develop Minnesota's stewards of tomorrow through efforts to increase life-long participation in parks and trails. The purpose of this program is to call attention to the pillar, but also to centralize and streamline reporting on other related programs within the pillar. Thus, this program captures all the information about what are known as direct and necessary administrative costs of managing the three other programs that make up this pillar, as well as all information on the number of full time equivalent (or FTE) positions supported by the Legacy funds allocated to DNR Parks and Trails under this pillar. Direct and necessary administrative costs include a wide range of activities, such as accounting and managerial expertise; a list of administrative activities has been compiled in Minnesota Management and Budget's Guidance to Agencies on Legacy Fund Expenditure. Other costs included in this program include direct, non-administrative costs of doing the work of Connecting People to the Outdoors that do not fall directly in one of the three related programs. This includes a range of professional staff or contractor services and materials needed to do the work. FTEs reported here are consistent with the guidelines provided by the Legislative Coordinating Commission.

Some attribute these changes to increased usage of computers and other technology that compete for the attention of young people. Through this appropriation, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is partnering with several organizations to build on this potential contributing factor as being part of a possible solution by expanding a successfully piloted environmental education program that uses digital photography as a bridge between technology and outdoor experiences. Outdoor nature photography workshops for at least 1,000 teachers and naturalists are being conducted throughout the state that provide guidance on how to use outdoor digital photography to enhance student learning on classroom subjects including math, science, geography, arts, and language arts. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Connecting Youth with Nature has successfully achieved it goals as initially proposed. The working title of the project was changed to the ""Digital Photography Bridge to Nature"" because there were federal agencies using the name ""Connecting Youth with Nature"" for other environmental education initiatives. Two statewide coordinators were hired under contract-one for the metropolitan region and one for greater Minnesota. Nine workshop facilitators were hired to deliver 80 Digital Bridge workshops over the course of the project. The kickoff teacher workshop was held on July 10 at Luverne, Minnesota, and was attended by 60 teachers. The keynote speaker was world-reknown National Geographic photographer Jim Brandenburg who grew up in Luverne, Minnesota. A total of 40 camera kits of 12 cameras each and several field guides were purchased and assembled with additional funds provided by the Nongame Wildlife Program and the DNR Division of Parks and Trails. Additional cameras were purchased for use on ""Photo safari"" programs in State Parks. For the 24 month period from July 10, 2010, through June 30, 2012, a total of 84 teacher workshops were carried out for a total of 1147 teachers. The goal of the project was to present 80 workshops reaching 1000 teachers in two years. In addition to facilitating teacher workshops, project facilitators have also gone into classrooms with teachers and taken the students on ""photo safaris"". A total of ten photos safaris were carried out with teachers with a total of over 500 students. Workshop facilitators have been providing the camera kits to teachers so they can carry out their photo safaris after attending Digital Bridge workshops. The Nikon digital cameras selected for this project have been holding up very well to such intensive use. Only ten cameras out of 500 have been damaged beyond repair. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Information on the Digital Photography Bridge to Nature project is available on the DNR website (http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/eco/nongame/projects/digitalbridge.html).

Runoff contributions from drained lands into these drainage systems contribute pollutants and degrade downstream water quality. Public drainage systems are funded by assessing costs to the lands benefitting from the systems. The current framework upon which these assessments are determined is based on maximizing crop production and does not account for overall water resources impacts, so there is no incentive for landowners to implement conservation practices that reduce runoff contributions to the drainage systems. The Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources is using this appropriation to develop and test an alternative framework for funding public drainage systems that would reduce costs to landowners if they implement conservation strategies that promote infiltration and reduce runoff. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Agricultural drainage provides an essential service to farmers and producers across the Midwest. However, maintenance and improvements of the drainage system are very costly. Landowners are charged via taxation based on the amount of benefits they receive from the drainage system. Currently in Minnesota benefits are determined by professional ditch viewers. Little guidance is provided to them by the drainage code and the process is highly laborious. Benefits are currently assigned per parcel based on discrete benefit classes. Professional judgment is an inherent component of the assessment. The main focus of this project is to investigate potential methods to improve on the current practices. The project was particularly interested in exploring the usefulness of geographic and hydrologic modeling software to automate the process, to objectively identify benefits, and to incorporate conservation practices in assessments. Instead of using the current Minnesota method of discrete benefit classes, the project proposed a new method called the UM method based on drainage volume for each parcel. The UM method does not use professional judgment to assign benefit classes. The method does, however, require an estimate of the surface and subsurface drainage volume for each parcel. Applying these alternative methodologies prior to manual, in field assessments will likely save time and money in the assessment process. Knowledge of the corresponding reductions in drainage depth volume and fraction of benefits per parcel can be utilized as part of the decision making process of applying conservation drainage practices within a watershed.

Public comment regarding the need, design, and audience for the space and complementary exhibit has occurred on three occasions: MIA exhibit inspired by Philando Castile's death, community engagement activities conducted by 4RM+ULA architectural firm in creating the space design, and a Falcon Heights community-wide survey. These data will provide invaluable foundational pillars for the proposed planning and implementation project. The core planning team, along with the Exhibit Planner, will provide input that crafts a collaborative story regarding what the exhibit can look like. Prior to completing the final exhibit design, the concept will be presented to a broad group of stakeholders along with requests for feedback. This will also be an opportunity to involve the public. Planned Activities/Expected Outcomes: Contract with an Exhibit Planner and host planning meetings - Outcome: Alignment of planners regarding the overall project; documentation of agreements and direction. Review PCPG's history, existing planning documents, and other material related to garden decision-making and priorities - Outcome: Collective refinement of ideas and direction; documentation of agreements.

When implemented, it will change the amount of information available in one place to visitors and the world. The strategies that will help accomplish the goal are: (1) Planning, (2) Designing, and (3) Implementation. We are in the first stages of (Planning and Design) of the work. To date we have contracted with Exhibit Planner Steve Boyd-Smith of Amplifier Experience Design. The firm does Interpretive planning and exhibit design for museums and sites of history, culture, conscience, and spirit across the country. Collaborative planning meetings have been held with the Philando Castile Peace Garden Committee and pro bono consultants. The committee, consultants, and exhibit planner are all aligned on the work ahead and are grounded in the garden's history. Signage that will carry the QR Code that will guide garden visitors to the web-based exhibit have been designed by the Exhibit Designer and outdoor sign vendors are being contacted to determine costs for the type of sign material recommended by the Exhibit Planner. Dates have been identified for meetings with Content Experts, the garden Architect, and additional meetings are planned with the Philando Castile Peace Garden Committee. There are ongoing planning and alignment meetings between the pro bono Consultants, Exhibit Planner, and Exhibit Designer. We have not made any changes to our project goal.; The Philando Castile Community Peace Garden is a regenerative space dedicated to his life. The creation of the Web-Based Exhibit expands knowledge about the garden that lives on in perpetuity. The stated outcomes for the work were: (1) To tell a fuller story of the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden, and (2) Expand the amount of information available in one place about Philando for garden visitors and the world. Both outcomes were accomplished, however, the website is not in place for viewing. Web pages are being critiqued by a segment of Peace Garden stakeholders, including Philando's family members, university professors, the newly formed Friends of the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden Board of Directors, the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden Renewal Committee, and a variety of community influencers who have supported the garden's founding and development. The web pages, including a 15-minute videotape that takes viewers on a tour of the garden through the four seasons (spring, summer, fall, and winter) of the year, will be revised based on the combined feedback from stakeholders. We have visible evidence of outcomes via designed web pages (attached) and the videotape. The current measurement of our outcomes are the designed web pages, including the videotape, that are ready for placement once the comment and revision periods end. Since the March and June reports, the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden Renewal Committee, pro-bono consultants, the web-based interpretative history consultant, a host of scholars, and Black men have been deeply engaged in strategy work to accomplish project outcomes, including: (1) planning, (2) designing, and (3) creating the web-based exhibit. Steve Boyd-Smith, our web-based exhibit consultant, has been communicating with scholars locally and nationally such as Ren'e Ater, Ph.D. (Brown University), Christine Baeumier, Ph.D., Rose Brewer, Ph.D., Elaine Evans, Ph.D. (all from the University of Minnesota), Davu Seru (Musician, Composer, Writer), and Glorius L. Martin (Hip Hop Artist) to gain knowledge that has informed interpretive history planning, design, and creation of the web-based exhibit. Planning sessions have focused on preserving and honoring African American cultural heritage in Minnesota and highlighting the central goal of the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden Web-Based Exhibit: to have visitors to the website understand the role of peace, justice, equity, and healing in the context of the Philando Castile tragedy and the community's response to it. Individual interviews and planning sessions have identified physical and cultural assets that matter to Philando's family and community residents, and they have documented information of importance that is related to Philando's death and how the garden came to exist on Minnesota State Fair property. A detailed bibliography listing various news accounts of the Philando Castile tragedy and the work and creativity his life and death has inspired are part of the web-based exhibit. These bibliographic sources will subsidize what is know about the Philando Castile tragedy and what his life and death have inspired. Since earlier reporting to the Minnesota Humanities Center, we have learned that a member of the Friends of the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden Board of Directors has written a book about the community's response to the Castile tragedy. When published, it will be the first of its kind, concentrating solely on how community actors responded after Philando was killed. The book's author, a former Star Tribune reporter, is currently searching for a publisher. Community-created protest art from around the world, initially curated for an MIA Exhibit in 2018, and art placed in the garden, will be a small part of the web-based exhibit that tells the story of a place where a community tragedy occurred and how artists and writers feel about the injustice. The greater part of the art collection will become a coffee table book. Beyond the website, the Peace Garden uses a monthly E-newsletter, Seeds of Peace, to continue awareness of the efforts and actions being done in Philando's memory and to continue his legacy. Philando's memory is kept alive for people all over the world to experience through the e-newsletter and the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden Instagram and Facebook pages. These platforms have allowed the garden to reach over 700 followers on Instagram and Facebook respectively, and nearly 1,500 monthly email recipients. The platforms drive traffic to the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden website. More than 100 people visited the site in April 2023 and there have been nearly 700 total impressions over the last few months.",,," * In-kind support is provided to the Philando Castile Community Peace Garden by GrayHall. GrayHall coordinated all aspects of the Web-Based Exhibit funded by the Humanities Center grant, an estimated 60 hours at a cost of $9,000. * Planner Steve Boyd-Smith purchased garden signage that carry the QR Code that directs garden visitors to the Web-Based Exhibit. Steve also paid for signs installation. He has not reported the cost. * Two university professors refused honorarium for their consultation time of two-hours each an estimated cost of $600. * Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation staff provided financial support and consultation to the Web-Based Exhibit, an estimated 30 hours at a cost of $2,250. * Saint Paul & Minnesota Foundation staff provided consultation regarding the design and development of the Web-Based Exhibit, approximately 2 hours at a cost of $300. * The Minnesota Historical Society provided a planning grant of $79,150 that allows for extensive historical planning and research that will strengthen the Web-Based Exhibit's historical features.

The Minnesota Alliance of Local History Museums (MALHM) aims to grow the state:s network of regional history groups in partnership with several local history organizations. One of the top requests from MALHM members and conference attendees is additional networking opportunities to connect with colleagues in the field.

One of the goals of this project was to provide access to materials that were quickly becoming inaccessible due to format and media degradation. By digitizing the project we have met those expectations. Additionally we have provided digital access to the materials allowing patrons to access the collection without physically visiting Concordia Special Collections; any access of this collection meets our target. With the launch of the collection we tracked 16 views of the collection in August, 3 views in September, and 4 views in October. Intermediate to long-term: We have yet to do much promotion of the collection, but we plan to write a news piece for our blog which will be posted to various social media outlets. Metadata for the collection was recently harvested for DPLA with the hope that this will also increase traffic to the collection. Our library has been contacted by a group working on a 10-part documentary series, ""The Home Front,"" about the potential possibility of using some of these interviews--which is great publicity for the collection.

Although there are many competent professionals working in the field, the quality of work varies across the profession and lack of expertise contributes to failures, partly because there is currently a lack of professional restoration training available. In order to help improve the success rates of restorations, scientists and educators at the University of Minnesota's Department of Horticultural Science are using this appropriation to develop an ecological restoration education program and cooperative. The effort will make training opportunities for practicing restoration professionals available statewide and facilitate improved and increased communication amongst the restoration community. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Ecological restoration is increasingly relied on as a conservation strategy in Minnesota even though project failure rates remain high. To improve ecological restoration success in Minnesota, this project developed training opportunities for practicing restoration professionals. We established the Ecological Restoration Training Cooperative (ERTC), which is based at the University of Minnesota, and coordinated as a partnership between state agencies and the University. A program of web-based, instructor-guided learning, combined with field sessions offered at multiple locations, are the first of its kind in the US for restoration. As part of this project, the training cooperative developed and offered five application-oriented online courses accessible statewide. These courses covering site assessment, seeding, planting, vegetation management and monitoring, were taken by 113 people during the ""pilot phase"". Each course will be offered at least twice a year through the U of MN College of Continuing Education. In conjunction with the online courses, field training sessions were developed for the seeding and vegetation management courses. These sessions focus on hands-on restoration skills introduced in the online courses. A four-year agreement with DNR Parks and Trails will allow each of the two field sessions to be taught by DNR natural resource specialists at four out-state locations each year in order to facilitate access to the training opportunities by individuals from around the state. In addition to the five training courses, the ERTC developed several other ways for restoration practitioners to learn skills and stay current. A webinar series, an annual workshop, social network, and website were all launched as part of ERTIC programming. During this grant period, five webinars were held, which were attended by over 1000 people. These presentations were recorded and are available on the practitioner's network, which has 187 members to date. The first annual conference, focused on restoration monitoring, was held in May 2013. Information on all upcoming events, including online courses can be found on the ERTC website, www.restoringminnesota.umn.edu. Details about the content of online courses, field sessions, webinars, and the workshop are presented in a supplemental report. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATIONInformation from this project has been made available in the following ways:Information on training opportunities is made available through the ERTC website, which was accessed over 2600 times in the past 18 months.Recorded webinar presentations are available through the ERTC practitioner's network, which is also linked to the website.Course and workshop information has been (and will continue to be) disseminated to over 6000 people, which is part of an active marketing effort led by the College of Continuing Education.The innovative approaches taken to the online courses have been communicated by press-releases connected to the R1Edu national university network.The innovative suite of training opportunities will be communicated with restoration researchers and practitioners at a talk to presented to the Society for Ecological Restoration International Congress to be held in October 2013.Of the 140 people that completed the course as beta-testers or in the pilot phase, many were middle-level managers responsible for contracting and program coordination. These individuals have first-hand experience with the course and are in a position to recommend it to colleagues that need/want to advance their skills.

Phytoestrogens mimic the hormone estrogen and can therefore interfere with normal biological development. For example, it is known that they can feminize male fish. However, the broader effects of phytoestrogens have not been studied and almost nothing is known about their long-term fate or persistence in the environment. Through this appropriation scientists from the University of Minnesota and St Cloud State University will collaborate to examine the persistence of phytoestrogens in surface waters and their effects on fish. Findings will be used to enhance wastewater treatment and help facilitate continued industrial development and production in Minnesota done in an environmentally sensitive manner. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Phytoestrogens are plant-based compounds that mimic estrogen and can interfere with normal biological development. Research shows that phytoestrogens are discharged into surface water from wastewater treatment plants and certain industries. The biological effects of these compounds have not been well studied, although it is known that they can feminize male fish. Almost nothing is known about their environmental fate. When these compounds enter rivers and streams, it is likely that they will be degraded and therefore may have a lessened impact on biota, but this needs to be confirmed. In this project, the persistence of two common phytoestrogens (genistein and daidzein) was studied. Fathead minnow exposure experiments at realistic environmental concentrations were also performed. Experiments demonstrated that genistein and daidzein reacted with sunlight. These two compounds also biodegraded rapidly in natural water samples; the rate of degradation depended on phytoestrogen concentration, water/incubation temperature, and the source of the water. Sorption experiments showed that phytoestrogens sorb to sediment, but this is not likely to be an important loss mechanism. Adult fathead minnow exposure experiments showed that only subtle effects on anatomy, physiology, and behavior of fathead minnows occurred as a result of exposure to phytoestrogens singly or in mixtures. The one exception to this was the fact that adult fathead minnows produced significantly more eggs when exposed to daidzein. Larval minnow exposures showed that exposure to genistein, formononetin (another common phytoestrogen), and a mixture of phytoestrogens had a negative impact on larval survival. Adult and larval exposures to microbiologically degraded phytoestrogens showed negative impacts on adult egg production. This research indicates that genistein, daidzein, and formononetin are unlikely to cause widespread ecological harm themselves in the absence of other stressors; nevertheless, caution should be exercised with respect to high concentration effluents due to the potentially anti-estrogenic effects of phytoestrogen degradates. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Results have been disseminated at several conferences. In addition, one manuscript has been published, two additional manuscripts have been submitted, and a fourth is being revised and will be submitted for publication in August or September, 2013.

Loss of these trees would devastate ecosystems throughout Minnesota and have major economic impacts for the forest products industry as well as through the costs associated with treatment, removal, and replacement of lost trees. Biological control - the use of a natural enemy of a species from its native habitat to help with control of that species - is currently the only promising long-term management strategy for EAB. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture is using this appropriation to pilot and assess the effectiveness of a biocontrol method for EAB in Minnesota that involves the use of three types of tiny, stingless wasps that are parasitoids of EAB. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS We made great progress with the biological control for emerald ash borer (EAB) in Phase 1 of this project. We simultaneously released wasps that parasitize EAB while we studied them. EAB can kill ash trees quickly (within 6 years). We have responded rapidly to EAB finds so that we might avoid large numbers of EAB over extensive areas, a situation that would be difficult to manage effectively. At the same time, we studied the parasitoid wasps to understand their cold tolerance and dispersal capability. Our studies improved our implementation strategies. Over 127,000 parasitoid wasps were released at 21 sites in the Twin Cities and southeastern Minnesota. Recovery of immature parasitoids in the field demonstrated that these agents are dispersing then finding and parasitizing EAB. We will continue releases in Phase 2. Research efforts demonstrated that the egg parasitoid, Oobius agrili, is the most cold tolerant and the larval parasitoid, Tetrastichus planipennisi, is the least cold tolerant. Therefore, we began releasing T. planipennisi earlier in the season to allow multiple generations to build a population sufficient to withstand anticipated cold induced mortality losses. We learned that T. planipennisi is capable of dispersing almost 5 miles within 24 hours but that most will fly 3/4 miles in 24 hours. Therefore, we began releasing T. planipennisi over a large area at a release site rather than at a central cluster to enable faster T. planipennisi dispersal. Research efforts trained a total of six graduate students, five undergraduate students, and three technicians in whole or in part on these projects. We will continue a study of ash health, EAB, and parasitoid wasps in the Twin Cities area where EAB was first found in 2009. To date, ash mortality within the study area has been substantially lower than anticipated. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Information about this project has been and will continue to be disseminated to the public, land managers and researchers. Media releases (3) and social media were utilized to inform the public of major developments. There were 15 scientific presentations to researchers and land managers. Additional training presentations (24) were given to the public, professional land managers, and tree care professionals at many venues.

To successfully engage people in overcoming these challenges it is important for them to have a developed sense of connection to Minnesota's ecosystems and an understanding of the immediate and long-term impacts climate change will have on them. Through this appropriation, the Will Steger Foundation will partner with a number of academic and civic organizations to develop an age appropriate program for students in grades 3-12 that ties Arctic explorer Will Steger's adventures with engaging content on Minnesota's natural environment, the short and long term impacts of climate change, and related student-led action projects. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The Will Steger Foundation developed Engaging Students in Environmental Stewardship through Adventure Learning (MCC) with the understanding that environmental stewardship begins with a local connection and sense of appreciation, or environmental sensitivity, towards the natural environment. This project's primary audience, educators, have the unique opportunity to lead their students through the environmental education continuum of knowledge, awareness, and skills that lead to an informed and active environmental citizenry. Climate change is one of the most critical environmental issues of our time and educators have an important role to play in educating their students and providing them the skills to mitigate and adapt to climate change. In order to make the issue relevant and connected to the lives of those reached through our project, we focused specifically on the impacts of climate change on Minnesota's biomes. Additionally, we wove in stories from Will Steger's life and examples of his own early observations of the natural world and his curiosity of weather and climate. We also tapped into the expertise of many Minnesota scientists and educators in the development of our Grades 3-12 curriculum, online classroom and two public forums and three Summer Institutes for climate change education. Over the three years of the project we were able to reach and increase the climate literacy of over 5000 educators, members of the public and students via our Summer Institutes for Climate Change Education, year round workshops, conference presentations, school visits, field trips, public forums and our online classroom (classroom.willstegerfoundation.org). The project also resulted in the development of a number of valuable, mutually beneficial, and long-term partnerships. The partnership with the Mississippi River Fund, National Park Foundation and Mississippi National River and Recreation Area resulted in the ability to support 20 student service projects and field trips for over 500 students to enhance their learning on Minnesota's changing climate. MCC was recognized in 2012 by Environmental Initiative in the area of environmental education in part due to these important partnerships. A final evaluation report showed overall success for the project in providing a curriculum and training that increased climate literacy, environmental stewardship and educator confidence in teaching about climate change. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Over 500 formal and informal educators from all four biomes received a copy of the Minnesota's Changing Climate Curriculum via three Summer Institutes and customized workshops for school districts and at professional education conferences. The curriculum was used to teach over 10,000 Grades 3-12 students about Minnesota's unique biomes, what makes them unique, how they are threatened by climate change and what they can do to mitigate the impacts. Additionally, the curriculum has been shared nationally and regionally via the Climate Literacy Network, the Great Lakes Education Collaborative, Green Teacher, Humphrey Institutes Innovations in Education Forum and the North American Association for Environmental Education as a model of place based climate change education. Additionally, over 1,000 students submitted their observations of Minnesota's biomes during the school year to our online classroom, with at least 2,000 more viewing and/or commenting on their observations. Minnesota's Changing Climate curriculum has been used as a framework to develop curriculum specifically focused on the Mississippi River and climate change impacts on Wisconsin. Additionally the Minnesota Phenology Network and Minnesota Master Naturalists have used portions of it and endorse its effectiveness for communicating the connection between phenology and climate change. The curriculum has been aligned with the St. Paul Public Schools ""power standards"" and Minneapolis Public schools elementary STEM standards and used as an example of how to meet those standards. Finally, teachers from Minnesota American Indian reservations that are participating in The CYCLES project, a project of the STEM Center at the University of Minnesota, received training and are using the curriculum in their schools because the place based focus of the curriculum resonates culturally. The online classroom, created in partnership with Hamline's Center for Global Environmental Education, has been used by educators around the state to learn more about Minnesota's unique biomes, their cultural history and climate change impacts. Finally, the Minnesota Phenology Network has utilized it has the perfect curriculum for connecting individuals with a reason why phenology is important.",,"FINAL REPORT",2010-07-01,2013-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Nicole,Rom,"Will Steger Foundation","2801 21st Avenue S, Ste 127",Minneapolis,MN,55407,"(612) 278-7147",nicole@willstegerfoundation.org,,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/engaging-students-environmental-stewardship-through-adventure-learning,,,,

As we lose habitat to conversion and encroachment, it is increasingly important to maximize wildlife production on existing permanently protected lands. Today's public lands are expected to function at the highest level for not only wildlife usability but now also for other non game rare and threatened species, pollinators, and for water quality efforts in the state. To meet today's expectations, public lands need to be enhanced from their original cover type which could have been planted with different priorities then today's. This program was developed in cooperation with the MNDNR and USFWS with the goals of developing higher quality biologically significant habitat that provide maximum usability by wildlife, pollinators, and non game species alike. PF, in cooperation with the MNDNR and USFWS, was able to contract out and enhance 21,553 acres of permanently protected public lands within this grant, which exceeded the proposed acres by 3,053 acres. PF was able to exceed the acre goal with less money than anticipated, spending only $1,308,000 of the allocated $1,320,000. Additionally PF came in under budget for personnel costs only spending $40,300. Because of the efficiency and high level of collaboration at which PF operates we are able to deliver high quality habitat enhancements at a lower than anticipated cost.This completed program enhanced 21,553 acres of permanently protected habitat and 1,148 acres of native prairie.",,"Greater than 95% of Minnesota’s prairies have been lost to the plow and development. Many of the remaining acres of native and restored grasslands have been degraded from lack of fire and the spread of invasive volunteer trees. Many of these acres have low plant diversity and are not reaching their potential for wildlife production. Many older public hunting areas were purchased as brome fields or were restored using low diversity seed mixes. As mentioned above, today's expectations of habitat cover on public lands have changed. We are demanding public lands function at a higher level for many reasons. In 1972 a Wildlife Biologist, Barnet Schranck, once said “The days for setting lands aside to be left idle for wildlife are past, and management techniques are needed to keep habitat in the more vigorous, earlier stages of ecological succession”. Here 45 years later we are facing the exact same problems, however, we have significantly less ‘idle’ lands putting more pressure on permanently protected lands to be as productive as possible. As biology advances, we understand that we need to attempt to replicate the diversity as seen in native prairies when feasible to be able to have a chance to sustain wildlife that depend on this diversity. For the sites needing a higher diversity of forbs and grasses, we used a mix of cultivation, herbicide and prescribed fire to prep the site and plant with a high diversity native grass and forb mix. Other sites may have had a good grass and forb base already but needed a prescribed fire to remove the duff layer, set back non-native grasses and to promote forb expression. Prescribed burning is a great tool for enhancing grassland habitat for waterfowl, gamebirds, and songbirds. Prescribed fire usually was conducted in the spring after the non-native grasses started growing which would set back these undesirable species giving native species a leg up. Invasive tree removal was done mechanically by using heavy equipment to cut, treat, and pile woody debris to be burned at a later date. Special considerations were taken to reduce rutting and the spread of invasive species from different sites. Tree removal was often done in the winter months when the ground is frozen. This appropriation has allowed the DNR and USFWS to enhance public lands (i.e. DNR Wildlife Management Areas (WMA) and USFWS Waterfowl Production Areas (WPA)) to the new expectation the public desires. All sites were enhanced following recommendations and by working in close collaboration with the area wildlife managers. As you will see in the attachment labeled 'project list', projects were bundled together based on activity type and location in order to get the lowest possible price. For this reason most projects in bundles do not have a per tract cost, but instead a total cost for all projects in that specific bundle. To calculate the per project cost in the parcel tab we took the total bundle price and averaged it by the number of projects in that bid bundle. A few projects in the attached 'project list' show 0 acres because these same project acres were already counted within this proposal within another activity category. It is also apparent in our attached project list that some per project costs are much lower than others within the same enhancement category. These project costs differ for various reasons. One reason being that the number of woody species on the tree removal sites can vary greatly. For example, on a tract enhanced through tree removal there can be scattered removal of encroaching trees or there could be the removal of heavily wooded areas such as old building sites or larger cottonwoods surrounding a wetland. Costs vary on diversity seedings because in some cases we were able to get match from the USFWS to help lower project costs. Our goal was to get good work done at the most economical price. The average cost of enhancement in this appropriation was approximately $61.00 per acre which we feel is a great price and provides a lot of value for the money. Swan Lake Waterfowl Production Area is a good example of how funds were used to help achieve management goals. Funds were used to remove undesirable woody vegetation from grassland habitat for migratory birds. Tree removal simulates conditions that existed here before European settlement. At that time, the land was predominantly treeless due to landscape scale prairie fires, so the goal is to recreate those conditions. Swan Lake WPA was infested with undesirable woody vegetation which diminishes the habitat value of the surrounding restored and native grasslands. This tree removal project targeted the undesirable trees invading these grasslands and wetlands. Funds were spent to hire a contractor to remove and chemically treat undesired deciduous and coniferous trees and to pile trees within selected locations on the WPA. The purpose of clearing trees and understory of brush is to restore the original grassland plants and the threatened grassland dependent fauna. Trees were removed by pulling or cutting, cut stumps were treated with an herbicide. 1,148 acres of native prairie was enhanced using prescribed fire in this appropriation. Fire is critical to maintain diversity and disturbance regimes on native prairie sites to keep these ares from becoming overtaken by non-native, more aggressive grass and weed species. Native prairie was identified using MNDNR MCBS native plant communities geospatial layer and historic areal imagery. It is important to continue to periodically enhance native prairie by prescribed fire to keep these areas functioning at the highest level possible as they often support rare, threatened and endangered species that depend on high quality native prairie. PF used the approved Request for Proposal (RFP) process to solicit contractors and CCM crews to conduct enhancements on lands open to public hunting owned and managed by the DNR and USFWS. PF in collaboration with our local chapter network requested projects from every USFWS and MNDNR office within the priority area. Projects were considered based on location, type of enhancement, and other geospatial factors such as proximity to rare species, native prairie, wellhead protection areas, etc. Consideration was also given to projects within core areas of the MN Prairie Conservation Plan. We were able to “bundle” many projects into one contract (as shown in attached project list) which added to our efficiency and effectiveness. The effectiveness of PF's RFP process can be measured by the fact that PF over delivered on acres while coming in under budget as broken out in the output tables.

Wastewater treatment does not completely remove triclosan or its derivatives and so the chemicals are discharged into surface waters. Once present in surface waters, sunlight converts triclosan and its derivatives into dioxins, a class of chemicals that are known to be toxic, carcinogenic, and persistent and accumulative in sediment and fish. Researchers at the University of Minnesota's Department of Civil Engineering are using this appropriation to study sediment samples in order to determine the current and historic levels of dioxins in the water and how much is attributable to triclosan and its derivatives. Findings will be used to make recommendations on how water quality can be improved and protected in the future. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Triclosan is an antimicrobial agent in many consumer products such as liquid handsoaps, bar soaps, dishwashing liquid, deodorants, anti-gingivitis toothpaste, and acne creams. Because it is washed down the drain through the normal course of use, triclosan is commonly detected in wastewater effluent. During water and wastewater disinfection with chlorine, triclosan can be transformed to a series of chlorinated triclosan derivatives. When discharged into surface waters, triclosan and its derivatives react in sunlight to form a series of four polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins. Dioxins are persistent organic pollutants that are toxic, carcinogenic, and endocrine disrupting. Thus, dioxins pose a risk to the health of aquatic species and their predators (including humans). To evaluate the historical and current exposure of surface waters to triclosan, chlorinated triclosan derivatives, and their derived dioxins, sediment cores were collected from wastewater-impacted Minnesota lakes. Following radiometric dating, triclosan and chlorinated triclosan derivatives were extracted from core sections and quantified. Dioxins were extracted from the same core sections and also quantified. The concentrations and temporal trends of triclosan, chlorinated triclosan derivatives, and their dioxins in aquatic sediments were found to be a function of historical wastewater treatment operations and lake system scale. Cores collected from large-scale riverine systems with many wastewater sources recorded increasing concentrations of triclosan, chlorinated triclosan derivatives, and their derived dioxins since the patent of triclosan in 1964. The trends were directly attributed to increased triclosan use, local improvements in treatment, and changes in wastewater disinfection practices. Concentrations of triclosan, chlorinated triclosan derivatives, and their dioxins were higher in small-scale systems, reflecting a greater degree of wastewater impact. In a lake receiving no wastewater influent, no triclosan was detected. Low levels of the four triclosan-derived dioxins were found in northern wastewater-impacted Minnesota lakes prior to the introduction of triclosan as well as in the lake with no wastewater input. The background levels of these dioxins were attributed to a secondary, region-specific source. Nonetheless, it is clear that triclosan is the major source of these dioxins after 1960. The contribution of the triclosan-derived dioxins to the total dioxin pool in terms of mass was determined for each sediment core. In heavily impacted systems, the dioxin contribution from triclosan and chlorinated triclosan derivatives accounted for up to 60% of total dioxin mass in recent sediment. Thus, the discharge of triclosan and chlorinated triclosan derivatives may pose a threat to wastewater-impacted lakes. The findings of this work suggest that additional treatment of wastewater to remove triclosan, additional regulation of triclosan use, or dissemination of information regarding the prevalence of triclosan in consumer products may be necessary. Full results are presented in the M.S. Thesis of Cale T. Anger submitted with this report. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION This project led to the production of the M.S. Thesis of Cale T. Anger, Quantification of Triclosan, Chlorinated Triclosan Derivatives, and their Dioxin Photoproducts in Lacustrine Sediment Cores. The thesis received the Distinguished Master's Thesis Award from the University of Minnesota, recognizing it as the best thesis at the U of MN for 2011-2012. A manuscript with the same title has been submitted the peer reviewed journal Enviornmental Science & Technology. The results of the work have been presented at the American Chemical Society National Meeting, the St. Croix River Research Rendevous, the Itasca Water Legacy Project lecture series, and the Mississippi River Forum. Two more presentations at the American Society of Limnology and Oceangraphy and the IWA Micropol and Ecohazard conferences are planned.

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.

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.

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.

Statewide there are currently 100 School Forests - which can also include prairie, wetland, and other natural areas other than forest - located in both urban and rural areas. This appropriation will help the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources establish 20 new school forests and provide better training and support services for teachers and school districts with existing forest areas. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The School Forest Program is Minnesota's outdoor classroom program. This project provided support to create new School Forest sites; develop and deliver site-specific outdoor education trainings, regional workshops, a multi-day conference, and a summit; create new online and in-person resources to better support School Forests; and investigate long-term support options for the School Forest Program. Funding provided 1.5 FTEs of School Forest educators for three years and an additional .75 FTE School Forest Specialist for one year. Minnesota has 125 School Forests throughout the state. As a result of this project, 22 new School Forest sites were developed on 256 acres of land, complete with proper applications, legal paperwork, School Forest committees, and land management plans. To meet teacher needs, several assessments were conducted (see 2012 School Forest Survey Report) and the results were used to create support materials for online and in-person delivery. The School Forest website was revamped and new sections relating to land management, outdoor education, and lesson plans/activities were created. More than 39,000 visitors used the website. School Forest staff participated in hundreds of crucial in-person site visits, meetings, and presentations to bolster support for new and existing School Forests. To encourage and support outdoor education activities, this project delivered 21 site-specific outdoor education trainings, reaching 523 teachers. These workshops involved Project Learning Tree materials and content was tied to Minnesota academic standards in math, science, and social studies. One hundred outdoor education kits were developed and delivered. The kits provided tools, materials, and lesson plans to allow teachers to easily prep and teach age-appropriate outdoor activities meeting Minnesota academic standards. In addition, two regional trainings, one multi-day conference, and one summit were developed and delivered. These events provided School Forest teachers the opportunity to delve into outdoor education strategy, discover practical teaching tips, and network with teachers, natural resource, and education experts; 106 teachers participated in these events. Over three years, this project provided new outdoor education opportunities to over 400 teachers and 11,000 students at 22 new School Forests. The total project activities reached over 1,500 teachers and 30,000 students statewide at all 124 School Forests. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The School Forest website (www.mndnr.gov/schoolforest) houses many materials created by this project. It is viewed by thousands of people every month. The School Forest Activity Board, within the website, is home to more than 100 new lesson plans created by School Forest teachers and staff. Of particular note are over 20 newly developed activities and lesson plans that correlate to math standards from Prekindergarten to eighth grade, meeting the need to effectively teach math outside. Dozens of newspaper articles and websites posts were created regarding the new 22 School Forest sites created during this grant. The results of the School Forest Survey were presented at the 2013 Minnesota Environmental Education Conference and are being reviewed by DNR staff, teachers and naturalists statewide. This information is being used to create or provide better resources to support teachers interested in outdoor education. Delivery of the ""How to Teach in Your School Forest"" trainings have evolved and been modified to meet teacher needs. For example, appropriate outdoor and reflection time is incorporated into each training and several other DNR and partner education programs have begun to use these techniques. In addition, the Minn. Dept. of Education asked School Forest staff and teachers to present much of the outdoor education training delivered as part of their ENRTF Environmental and Outdoor Education project. This provided positive outcomes for all partners involved. About 70 percent of the 22 new School Forest sites are in an urban area. Results from the 2013 Urban School Forest focus groups were used to identify needs specific to urban sites. Strategies are needed for dealing with vandalism, dogs, invasive species, and high community use on small, urban parcels. Two School Forest site coordinators were awarded the ""Formal Environmental Educator of the Year"" by the MN Association for Environmental Education for their work with their school forests (2012 & 2013). The School Forest program was recognized as one of Governor Dayton's Education Highlights for 2011-2012.",,"FINAL REPORT",2010-07-01,2013-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,"Amy Kay",Kerber,DNR,"500 Lafayette Rd","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5263",amykay.kerber@dnr.state.mn.us,,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/expanding-outdoor-classrooms-minnesota-schools,,,,

Farmland preservation is also central to natural resource conservation. However, the laws that affect farmland preservation are currently a patchwork of local, county, and state laws, many of which either ignore or deter efforts on agricultural lands that benefit natural resource conservation. The Farmers' Legal Action Group is using this appropriation to assess the effectiveness of current and potential laws, regulations, and policy tools used for preserving agricultural land in order to develop a comprehensive and systematic approach for preserving agricultural lands in Minnesota. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The report that resulted from this project - ""Preserving Minnesota's Agricultural Land: Proposed Policy Solutions"" - recommends a new statewide approach to preserving our state's diminishing agricultural lands to ensure that our state's best farmland is preserved. The state's prime farmland - that most well suited for farming - has been developed at a steady rate, with significant negative consequences for the security and stability of our natural resources and food supply. The report notes that existing state farmland preservation programs can be invaluable tools for the immediate and short-term preservation of farmland, but they have not successfully preserved farmland for the long-term because they suffer from poor incentives and limited promotion. State land use planning requirements could facilitate farmland preservation, but Minnesota's fail to because they do not require local governments to address farmland preservation in their comprehensive plans or zoning ordinances. Among the report's recommendations are:Adopt state farmland preservation goals and a statutory requirement for comprehensive plans and zoning ordinances to include farmland preservation plans.Develop a statewide Purchase of Agricultural Conservation Easement (PACE) program to be offered in counties with farmland preservation plans. Include soil and water conservation and stewardship plans in the easements. Consider building upon Dakota County's PACE program, which explicitly joins farmland protection with water quality protection.Streamline the Metro and Greater Minnesota Programs into one comprehensive state program administered by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. Make the program available in all counties with farmland preservation plans.Tiered incentives should be used to promote conservation and long-term protection.Add a permanent and a 30-year agricultural preserve option.Require preservation of similar quantity and quality of farmland to acquired farmland when enrolled land is acquired though eminent domain or annexation.Make all working farms, including small-acreage farms, eligible for Green Acres program benefits. Farms most affected by existing size restrictions are Community Supported Agriculture farming operations, beginning and immigrant farmers, small-scale diversified farms, direct marketers, and farms that raise grass fed livestock or that allow animals to forage. Current restrictions result in excluding farms using production methods that are better for the environment and thwarts economic development by denying benefits to burgeoning small-scale farming operations.Develop policies and allocate resources to help to facilitate the transfer of land from one generation of farmers to the next and allow for affordable access to good quality farmland. Consider adopting a tax credit for those who lease land to beginning farmers; conservation measures could be made a required component of such leases.PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The report has been distributed to a regional media list; federal, state, and local public officials and staff; farm organizations; and influential farmers and other citizens. The report's contents (and a link to the report online) has also been distributed to almost 3,000 contacts. Plans are underway for any follow up strategies farm organizations may pursue in the legislative sessions ahead.",,"Final Report",2010-07-01,2012-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Jennifer,Jambor-Delgado,"Farmers Legal Action Group, Inc.","360 N Robert St, #500","St. Paul",MN,55101,"(651) 223-5400",jjambor-delgado@flaginc.org,"Analysis/Interpretation, Assessment/Evaluation, Education/Outreach/Engagement, Planning","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/farmland-conservation-minnesota,,,,

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.

This appropriation is available until June 30, 2011, at which time the project must be completed and final products delivered, unless an earlier date is specified in the work program.","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".",,,,,,,,MPCA,"State Government","Project Outcome and Results Minnesota Schools Cutting Carbon (MnSCC) is a three-year project that engaged over 7,000 students in 100 public high schools, colleges and universities across Minnesota to save energy, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions at their schools. Results: The 100 MnSCC schools collectively saved their schools about 5 million kWh of electricity (totaling 18 billion BTUs) and $325,000 in energy costs annually, which means the three-year program paid for itself in two and a half years. The project also avoided 9.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions (CO2 is a greenhouse gas). In addition, 23 of the MnSCC schools received a total of $202,828 in competitive grants for renewable energy, energy efficiency, recycling, and transportation reduction projects. Fourteen schools were able to measure and report savings of over 3 million kWh of electricity; 10,500 therms of natural gas; and 26,000 gallons of gasoline - totaling 14.4 billion BTUs. These projects saved approximately $300,000 in annual energy costs and avoided 6.2 million pounds of CO2 emissions. The cumulative impact of all 100 MnSCC school projects saved schools 32.4 billion BTUs of energy, $625,000 in energy costs, and reduced carbon dioxide emissions by 15.7 million pounds, the equivalent of taking 1,700 cars off of Minnesota roads. Our project team helped schools create clean energy teams, personally visited every school, provided individual school reports with recommendations on saving energy and resources, and gave students the opportunity to develop and lead energy-saving projects, network with other schools, and share success stories. Student leadership was a key focus of our project, and there are many great examples of students having a direct impact on their schools and communities: Students presented at the biennial Clean Energy Resource Teams (CERTs) conference in St. Cloud in February 2011 to over 100 conference attendees over two days. Students rallied in the State Capitol Rotunda on Earth Day 2010, meeting fellow students and several legislators. Students presented before the LCCMR and the House Environment Policy and Oversight Committee to talk about how their work has impacted their school. Overall, MnSCC demonstrated that our students are highly motivated and very effective. They achieved significant energy savings, and they directly influenced their schools and communities through their leadership and interactions with school officials, teachers, fellow students, and community representatives. Project Results Use and Dissemination One of the primary objectives of this project was to raise awareness of energy issues and to implement low cost and no cost energy-saving actions in schools through the leadership of students. We also were focused throughout the project on creating opportunities for students to talk about their projects, share results, and for MnSCC to recognize their successes. A variety of resources, detailed in the final report, were created and made available to enable schools to take clean energy actions and make presentations to their communities and local officials. These resources were made available on a robust MnSCC website. Many schools also used the website to share their project success stories and post rleated text, pictures, and videos. Additionally, ongoing communication, outreach, and interaction with Minnesota's schools, colleges, and universities through a variety of means was at the heart of this project from beginning to end.

Through its Partners Program, the USFWS works with other federal and state agencies, local units of government, tribal entities, conservation organizations, and individual landowners to restore or enhance fish and wildlife habitats on private land. This program emphasizes restoring habitats and native vegetation for fish and wildlife in concert with the goals of individual private landowners. These projects also benefit the general public by providing habitat for fish, wildlife and plants, improving water quality and watershed health, reducing non-point source pollution, and creating opportunities for outdoor recreation and education. The $50,000.00 of Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF) funding obtained through this work program, accelerated the USFWS' existing Partners Program with an additional voluntary restoration or enhancement of 38 wetland basins covering 54 acres of wetland habitat and five grassland sites covering 491 acres of upland habitat. With this funding, a total of 6 projects were completed on private land within HCP Project Area 12. The ENRTF funds were expended from July 2009 through June 2011. The USFWS Partners Program provided $33,138.00 of Other Funds cost-sharing to complete these projects. The USFWS Partners Program also provided $13,400.00 of Other Funds to complete two additional upland enhancement projects totaling 43 acres. Under the Partners Program, wetlands are restored or enhanced by plugging or filling drainage ditches, removing excess sediment, breaking up sub-surface tile systems, embankment construction, and/or installing water control structures. Upland grassland areas are restored or enhanced by removing invasive woody vegetation and re-seeding former cropland to a native prairie seed mixture. All seeded areas complied with requirements to utilize local native ecotype seed as available. Project selection for ENRTF cost-share via the Partners Program is based on the project's contribution to building wetland and upland habitat complexes or corridors and/or restoring or enhancing native habitats in the focus project areas. Project Results Use and Dissemination These projects were completed within the nine HCP Project Areas across the state of Minnesota. Without the willingness of the landowners involved, and the variety of other partners, this important wetland, upland and river/riparian wildlife habitat would not be restored. Numerous presentations including information about ENRTF habitat restorations have been made over the past ten years at various meetings - i.e., Minnesota State Private Lands Meeting, the Wetland Summit, the Shallow Lakes Forum, MNDNR Roundtable, and at Kiwanis, Rotary, and Lion's Club presentations.

DU biologists and engineers provided technical assistance to Minnesota DNR, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and private landowners around shallow lakes with a goal of: Enhancing at least one shallow lake totaling 100 wetland acres with a new water control structure and/or fish barrier, Engineering at least four new shallow lake enhancement structure projects for DNR on designated shallow lakes or basins within state Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) and for the Service on federal Waterfowl Production Areas (WPA), and Providing technical assistance to agency field staff on other shallow lake projects throughout HCP project areas. Through this grant project, DU biologists and engineers surveyed and designed six new water control structures for the Minnesota DNR and US Fish & Wildlife Service, including Sandborn Lake in LeSueur County, Lindsey Lake in Becker County, Everglade Wildlife Management Area in Stevens County, Harder Lake and Wolf Lake Waterfowl Production Areas (WPA) in Cottonwood County, and Henjum WPA in Kandiyohi County. These six bio-engineering projects will be implemented in the future as permits and easements are secured. In addition, DU enhanced 453 wetland acres by constructing previously designed water control structures on the outlets of three shallow lakes, including Block WPA in Grant County, Perch Lake in Blue Earth County on Perch Lake WPA, and Gislason Lake in Lincoln County on the Northern Tallgrass Prairie National Wildlife Refuge. This far surpasses our target goal of enhancing at least one shallow lake totaling 100 wetland acres or more. Finally, DU shallow lakes field biologist provided ongoing technical assistance to Minnesota DNR and the Service on 30 shallow lake projects in HCP Project Areas to help assess and develop new projects for future possible bio-engineering, implementation, and management by those conservation agencies. DU's total cost to provide these bio-engineering services to enhance shallow lakes was $526,225, and included reimbursement of $225,000 from the Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund through this grant, and the expenditure of $1,249 in Other State Funds and $299,977 in Other Funds (DU and federal funds) that far exceeds the $100,000 in Other Funds that we originally proposed to spend. Project Results Use and Dissemination This grant helped DU, DNR, and the Service accelerate the assessment and enhancement of shallow lakes throughout southern, central and western Minnesota. DU provided six detailed engineering design plans to state and federal agency staff, and informed the public of shallow lake improvement projects through public meetings, news releases sent to the media, and in articles in DU publications.

This project exceeded that goal for a total of nine buffer zones, which were completed on schedule and under budget, totaling 1298 frontage feet of shoreline. This equates to an average cost of $55.82 per foot for planning, installing, and maintaining these shoreline buffer zones which are designed to improve water quality and fish and wildlife habitat. In addition to the buffer zones, two field days were provided for the public in 2010 to view buffer zones that had previously been installed. One field day was held near Grand Rapids and one was held in the Alexandria vicinity. The final component of this activity was to collect native origin plant seeds and propagules in 2009 and 2010 for propagation and subsequent planting on buffer zone sites. The goal was to collect seeds for a total of 80 plant species. However, a total of 92 species of native plant seeds and propagules were collected and subsequently used in the plantings. This has been a very successful effort and an excellent partnership between the DNR's Division of Ecological and Water Resources and the Division of Fish and Wildlife to carry out this effort to promote stewardship of lakeshore habitat on private shorelands. Project Results Use and Dissemination Completion of Phase 6 brings to 73 the total number of lakescaping buffer zone demonstration areas that have been installed in 7 habitat corridors in 22 Minnesota counties since May of 2000 with LCMR and LCCMR support provided from the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund. This initiative has been instrumental in promoting this concept of lakeshore stewardship not only throughout Minnesota but also in adjacent states and as far off as Washington state and South Carolina. The book Lakescaping for Wildlife and Water Quality and the new on-line version of Restore Your Shore provide a continuing source of information for people to learn how to plan and install their own buffer zones. Also, the DNR Shoreland Habitat Program continues to offer on-the-ground assistance to local lakeshore associations, landowners, and local and county units of government to initiate lakeshore buffer zones throughout the state. The LCCMR deserves considerable credit for providing funding to help promote this essential concept for stewardship of privately owned lakeshore in Minnesota.

Invasive species control treatments were completed on a total of 113 acres, including 48 acres on SNAs and 65 acres on NPB lands. Invasive species treated include buckthorn, siberian elm, red cedar, knapweed, leafy spurge, and cow-vetch. Due to the availability of qualified contractors, many woody invasive species projects were contracted. One reconstruction project totaling 30 acres was completed on the Zilmer WMA, which is part of the larger Felton Prairie Complex. Seed for the reconstruction was collected from surrounding lands. In total, 679 acres of prairie habitat was improved during this project. Project Results Use and Dissemination Ecological and Water Resources invests considerable time in publishing and distributing results in a variety of formats for various audiences.

Additional details, beyond the short summary below, are found in the more detailed reporting provided for each project. Northern Tallgrass Prairie: Prairie was restored on 183 acres (88 acres-ENRTF; 95 acres-other funds) of TNC land on this key parcel for building connections within the Bluestem Prairie complex. Project activities included seed collection, site preparation, sowing, and follow work to control invasives in the restoration area. Western MN Invasives Control & Prescribed Fire: TNC accelerated management activities on 1,067 acres (798 acres-ENRTF; 269 acres-other funds) of TNC lands. Activities included planning/implementing prescribed fire on 1,060 acres, buckthorn removal, and a focused effort on controlling leafy spurge. Prairie Coteau Restoration: Prairie was restored on 84 acres (all acres-ENRTF) of TNC land in a key parcel for connecting remaining areas of native prairie in the Lac qui Parle complex. Completed work included preparing and seeding 71 acres, clearing trees, buckthorn removal, and fence removal. Prairie Forest Border Restoration: This project accelerated prescribed fire and invasives management on 2,091 acres (1,932 acres-ENRTF; 159 acres-other funds) of TNC and public grassland, wetland and forest at 7 sites in Central and Southeastern Minnesota. Individual activities included planning/implementing prescribed fire on 1,392 acres, invasive surveys/treatment on 560 acres, brush removal on 135 acres, and buckthorn removal on 19 acres. NE MN Conifer Restoration: 114 acres (all acres-ENRTF) of TNC and public land was managed to encourage the regeneration of conifers in Northeast Minnesota. Project tasks included installing exclosures and budcaps to prevent browsing and using brush saws, grass mats, and grubbing to control competing vegetation. Sand Prairie Restoration: Prairie was restored on 90 acres and existing habitat was enhanced on an additional 35 acres of TNC land buffering the outstanding native prairie on the adjoining Weaver Dunes SNA (102 acres-ENRTF; 23 acres-other funds). Project activities included seed collection, site preparation, three rounds of sowing with a high-diversity 115-species mix, brush clearing, and surveying/treating invasive species. One thing to note when reviewing detailed information on the individual projects: the completed acres shown for each project may be lower than the number of acres listed for the separate restoration activities. The lower total reflects the fact that multiple activities may have been done on the same acres. In this phase, The Nature Conservancy's (TNC) proposed acquiring fee title to 115 acres of habitat with Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF) and other funds. These projects would emphasize protecting and linking existing public and private conservation lands, helping to build larger, more sustainable areas of habitat. Using ENRTF and private funds, TNC purchased two parcels adjoining Weaver Dunes SNA. The Conservancy purchased the Cox tract (30.6 acres) on November 16, 2010 and the Carroll-Fitzgerald tract (21.7 acres) on December 10, 2010. Together, these parcels total 52.3 acres. Both parcels are located in an area identified as critical in both TNC's and the Habitat Conservation Partnership's planning processes. As part of the Conservation by Design process, The Conservancy develops a Conservation Area Plan (CAP) and Rapid Protection Plan (RPP) for each landscape where we are active. These plans define conservation objectives, management strategies, and areas targeted for action. Both parcels were identified as targets in TNC 's 2007 Conservation Area and Rapid Protection Plans for the Weaver Dunes-Zumbro Delta landscape. Purchasing these parcels protects the native prairie found on portions of both properties. These prairies were ranked as having outstanding biodiversity significance by the Minnesota County Biological Survey. The protection and restoration of the remaining areas of converted or degraded prairie on these tracts will provide a valuable buffer to the large areas of outstanding native prairie on the 6,000 acres of adjoining TNC-, state-, and federally-protected lands. The Conservancy will retain ownership and manage both properties as additions to the Weaver Dunes SNA. Funds for the continuing management of these acquisitions were ensured by placing 20% of the fair market value of the properties in a dedicated stewardship endowment. The income from this endowment provides the resources for approximately 50% of the ongoing costs of land management. The remaining 50% of future funding needs will be raised through private fundraising and private and public grants. TNC was unable to reach our original goal for acres protected. The relatively -high cost of land in Southeastern Minnesota where these tracts are located and the continuing state-wide escalation in rural land prices made this difficult to achieve. The Conservancy spent an additional $235,754.57 of its private funds in transaction-related expenses for these fee title acquisition projects. For more details on the purchases, the associated costs, and their conservation significance, see the Transaction Cost Reporting Guidelines memo submitted to LCCMR on January 14, 2011. Project Results Use and Dissemination All acquired or restored lands are open to the public. The Conservancy publicizes its work on these projects via press releases, membership publications, presentations and/or the Conservancy's website. TNC has also participated in publicizing the overall accomplishments of the Habitat Corridors Partnership project as it has reached significant milestones.TNC continues to coordinate with public and private partners to apply lessons learned from this project to work at these and other sites.

We initiated or continued contact with more than 50 landowners and completed five conservation easements. Collectively, these easements preserve 566 acres of land (508 acres-ENRTF; 58 acres-other funds)- exceeding our original goal of 300 to 500 acres - and protect nearly 17,000 feet of fragile shoreline. Two of the five easements completed involved significant bargain purchases, while the other three projects were donated easements: Rabbit Lake in Aitkin County: 171 acres (all acres-ENRTF) containing forest, wetland, grassland, and hay field being restored to prairie. Blackhoof River in Carlton County: 248 acres (all acres-ENRTF) containing a mix of forest, wetlands, grasslands, and woodlands. Encampment River in Lake County: 88 acres (40 acres-ENRTF; 48 acres-other funds) containing a mature conifer forest with black ash lowlands and wetlands along the Encampment River. Blacklock Nature Sanctuary along Lake Superior in Lake County: 11 acres (1 acre-ENRTF; 10 acres-other funds) containing forest and cobblestone beach along Lake Superior. Lake Elysian in Waseca County: 48 acres (all acres-ENRTF) containing oak savanna and big woods.   All five projects met the following selection criteria: Habitat: quality and quantity of existing habitat on site; protects riparian areas and buffers water resources Context: proximity and relationship to other protected lands Opportunity cost-benefit ratio: which landowners will participate now Other Benefits: meeting multiple objectives, including visual and physical access, forestry goals, water quality, etc. Additionally, the Land Trust prepared baseline property reports for each easement, detailing the condition of the property for future monitoring and enforcement. To fund this required perpetual obligation, the Land Trust dedicated funds to its segregated Stewardship and Enforcement Fund for several completed projects. For these projects, we estimated the anticipated annual expenses of each project and the investment needed to generate annual income sufficient to cover these expenses in perpetuity - all in accordance with our internal policies and procedures as approved by LCCMR. We will report to LCCMR annually on the status of the Stewardship and Enforcement Fund and the easements acquired with funds from this grant. The value is known for only one of the easements. The donated value of this easement is $515,000. The cost to the State of Minnesota to complete the five projects completed under this phase of the grant was just over $370 per acre. Cumulatively, across all phases of the HCP program, the Land Trust has protected 7,461 acres of critical habitat and more than 218,000 feet of shoreline, at a cost to the State of $283 per acre. The Land Trust's work on this project continues to demonstrate the cost effectiveness of working with conservation easements to protect natural and scenic resources along Minnesota's lakes, rivers, and streams, as the cost to the State was well below the cost to purchase land along our increasingly threatened shorelines. This grant continued to generate interest among landowners, and therefore, ongoing funding will be important to sustained success. Additionally, our experiences during this phase of the grant indicate that funds to purchase easements will be necessary in the future as work becomes more targeted, selective, and focused on building complexes of protected land. Project Results Use and Dissemination The Land Trust disseminated information about the specific land protection projects completed under this grant though our newsletter, email updates, web site, and press releases. The Land Trust also shared information about conservation easements generally and our experience with our partner organizations, other easement holders, local communities, as well as policy makers including members of the LCCMR and L-SOHC.

To protect shallow lakes, DU worked with private shallow lake shoreline landowners to secure permanent conservation easements on managed shallow lakes prioritized by DU for their importance to waterfowl and threat of development. The goal was to permanently protect at least 200 shallow lake shoreland acres. DU land protection staff worked with several private landowners on multiple shallow lakes over the course of this two year grant, and eventually began negotiations with five landowners on four different shallow lakes who expressed a desire to proceed with appraisals and discuss easement terms. Through that process, two of the five easement negotiations were successful and became viable land protection deals. DU subsequently proceeded to close on a fully purchased conservation easement on 76 acres on Fish Lake in Stearns County in February 2011. DU then proceeded to seek approval to split the cost of a second larger easement of 150 acres on Garden and Johnson Lakes in Crow Wing County using the remaining funds from this 2009 Trust Fund appropriation (60%) and a related 2010 Trust Fund appropriation (40%). Overall, DU successfully closed two conservation easements through this grant and permanently protected 226 acres in total, which was slightly more than our 200-acre goal. The total project cost to protect shallow lakes through conservation easements was $353,532, which includes reimbursement of $250,000 from the Trust Fund through this grant plus the expenditure of $61,532 in Other Funds by DU and $42,000 donated to DU for easement stewardship. Project Results Use and Dissemination This grant helped DU accelerate the protection of shallow lakes by working with private landowners to secure conservation easements and promote conservation easement concepts. Conservation easements with private landowners are sensitive land deals that don't lend themselves to widespread publicity, however, DU has recognized individual landowners and has publicized our work to protect shallow lake shorelines and shoreland locally through local conservation groups, soil and water districts, and tribal organizations supportive of our work to protect wild rice lakes. DU also informed the foundations supporting our Living Lakes Initiative of our conservation accomplishments. The accomplishment of securing two new permanent conservation easements through this grant has helped encourage other private landowners to consider working with DU to protect their shorelines, and news of our progress may be further disseminated through DU news releases and articles DU publications in the future.

The purpose of these contracted technicians was to provide technical assistance to private landowners and USDA - NRCS complete applications and enroll new lands into the WRP, and to help USDA-NRCS and private landowners plan, design, and implement restoration measures on lands previously enrolled in the WRP. The delivery goal for these technicians was to provide Technical Assistance (TA) to help NRCS protect 1,000 acres through new WRP easements and help restore wetlands and associated upland habitat on WRP easements in prairie Habitat Conservation Partnership (HCP) project areas at an estimated Other Funds cost of $1,500,000 to NRCS. During the life of this grant, the contract specialists made 275 landowner contacts, helped process 80 applications, developed 96 easement conservation plans, completed 21 wetland restoration designs, and managed construction of 55 wetland restoration projects. Overall, NRCS closed (purchased) 25 new WRP easements protecting 2,721 acres with the assistance of these six contracted wetland specialists funded through this grant, which exceeds the easement acre goal of this project. This includes WRP easements protecting 1,031 acres of wetlands and 1,690 acres of adjacent uplands. Other Fund expense incurred by NRCS to purchase these easements and by DU to hire and manage the contractors totals $3,923,321 in non-state funding, more than double our Other Funds expense pledge of $1.5 million. Project Results Use and Dissemination Information on the WRP signups has been publicized through news releases from the USDA's NRCS and local Soil and Water Conservation Districts, and through hundreds of individual landowner contacts made by DU wetland restoration specialists.

Project goals were to protect 120 acres (1.4 miles of lake and stream shoreline) with the help of partner and other state funding. Partner funding includes donations of land value and cash. This project resulted in the acquisition of four parcels with a grand total of approximately 54.2 acres and 1.3 miles of lake and stream shoreline. Because of the extreme variation in shoreline values it is hard to accurately predict a reliable acre benchmark. Most years, including the 2008 Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF) appropriation, we far exceeded our acres goal. For the 2009 ENRTF appropriation, we fell short of the acres goal, but nearly reached our ""miles of shoreline"" goal. ENRTF dollars directly acquired approximately 35.12 acres of the total, including 0.4 miles of lake and stream shoreline. Donations of land value (""other funds"" $396,600) and resulting Reinvest In Minnesota Critical Habitat match (""other state monies"" $165,000), leveraged with trust dollars, totaled $561,600. These contributions helped acquire the remaining acres of the grand total, including 4.0 acres and 0.2 shoreline miles using other state dollars and 8.5 acres and 0.4 shoreline miles from donations of land value. Preece Point was acquired jointly using both 2009 and 2010 Supplemental grants to Minnesota's Habitat Conservation Partnership - Fish and Wildlife Acquisition (4b). Results for Preece Point were proportionately distributed for each grant. As a result of this project, 54.2 acres, including 1.3 miles of critical shoreline fish and wildlife habitat are now permanently protected and open to public angling and/or hunting - as well as other light use recreational activities. Acquired parcels are now designated and managed as Aquatic Management Areas (AMAs).

Funds are being used to coordinate the partnership, guide strategic outreach and implementation efforts, manage project data, and provide reporting and mapping of accomplishments.PROJECT OVERVIEW With continued land use changes in Minnesota, areas that once served as important areas for fish, wildlife, and plant habitat have become fragmented and disconnected resulting in adverse impacts on these ecological communities. Strategic and coordinated efforts in protection, restoration, and enhancement of lands throughout Minnesota can create land and water corridors that reconnect remaining habitat areas and reverse some of the adverse impacts. This appropriation represents the seventh phase of an ongoing effort by a partnership of state, federal, and non-profit organizations, called the Habitat Corridors Partnership (HCP), to do such strategic and coordinated land protection, restoration, and enhancement. Earlier phases of this project have resulted in the protection, restoration, or enhancement of more than 100,000 acres throughout the state. Many of these projects matched Trust Fund money with non-state funds, stretching these dollars to provide a greater benefit to the state. This phase involves eight partners and is expected to result in the permanent protection of approximately 1,100 acres and restoration or enhancement of more than 630 acres. Projects from the individual partners are listed below.OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The coordination, mapping, and data management work plan provided for the timely, consistent, and accurate reporting of all Habitat Conservation Partnership accomplishments and expenditures during the project period. Duties the project coordinator included: coordinating partners, projects and cultivating partnerships; managing project data and contracting/coordinating mapping services; soliciting and compiling partner information and providing reports to LCCMR and partners; scheduling, coordinating, and chairing meetings & providing meeting minutes; coordinating public relations outreach to media; serving as primary contact for LCCMR; facilitating executive & full committee meetings and coordinating subcommittee meetings; and managing contract for administration and mapping components of the partnership. With this being the end of the formal Habitat Conservation Partnership, contracted mapping and website services were completed in November of 2013. This resulted in fewer ENRTF funds being required under this result, expending $16,503 of the budgeted $25,000. Additionally, as the partnership was winding down, less personnel time was required to conduct coordination among partners and projects, thus fewer ENRTF funds than anticipated were expended to provide the essential partnership coordination function.

Funds are being used to coordinate the partnership, guide strategic outreach and implementation efforts, manage project data, and provide reporting and mapping of accomplishments.PROJECT OVERVIEW With continued land use changes in Minnesota, areas that once served as important areas for fish, wildlife, and plant habitat have become fragmented and disconnected resulting in adverse impacts on these ecological communities. Strategic and coordinated efforts in protection, restoration, and enhancement of lands throughout Minnesota can create land and water corridors that reconnect remaining habitat areas and reverse some of the adverse impacts. This appropriation represents the seventh phase of an ongoing effort by a partnership of state, federal, and non-profit organizations, called the Habitat Corridors Partnership (HCP), to do such strategic and coordinated land protection, restoration, and enhancement. Earlier phases of this project have resulted in the protection, restoration, or enhancement of more than 100,000 acres throughout the state. Many of these projects matched Trust Fund money with non-state funds, stretching these dollars to provide a greater benefit to the state. This phase involves eight partners and is expected to result in the permanent protection of approximately 1,100 acres and restoration or enhancement of more than 630 acres. Projects from the individual partners are listed below.OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The coordination, mapping, and data management work plan provided for the timely, consistent, and accurate reporting of all Habitat Conservation Partnership accomplishments and expenditures during the project period. Duties the project coordinator included: coordinating partners, projects and cultivating partnerships; managing project data and contracting/coordinating mapping services; soliciting and compiling partner information and providing reports to LCCMR and partners; scheduling, coordinating, and chairing meetings & providing meeting minutes; coordinating public relations outreach to media; serving as primary contact for LCCMR; facilitating executive & full committee meetings and coordinating subcommittee meetings; and managing contract for administration and mapping components of the partnership. With this being the end of the formal Habitat Conservation Partnership, contracted mapping and website services were completed in November of 2013. This resulted in fewer ENRTF funds being required under this result, expending $16,503 of the budgeted $25,000. Additionally, as the partnership was winding down, less personnel time was required to conduct coordination among partners and projects, thus fewer ENRTF funds than anticipated were expended to provide the essential partnership coordination function. This work plan expended $1,286 of the budgeted $26,000 to coordinate the partnership. In total, this work plan turns back $33,211 to the ENRTF as the funds were not necessary for the completion of this work plan.

Conservation easements will be acquired on approximately 150 acres of privately owned shoreland and up to 60 acres of lands previously converted for cropping will be restored back to wildlife habitat. Lands being considered for permanent protection in this round of funding are located in Beltrami, Douglas, Freeborn, Grant, Meeker, Pope, Stearns, Swift, and Wright counties.OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Shallow lakes represent the core of Minnesota's remaining waterfowl habitat. Shallow lakes are defined by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) as basins 50 acres or larger with maximum depth of 15 feet or less. To help protect shallow lakes of importance to waterfowl, Ducks Unlimited (DU) works with private landowners to limit future subdivision and development of shoreland around shallow lakes by securing permanent DU conservation easements, and restores agricultural lands back to habitat where possible. Through this grant, DU conducted landowner outreach to promote conservation easements to private landowners on select shallow lakes of importance to waterfowl, and offered to purchase or accept donated permanent conservation easements on shallow lakes DU has prioritized for shoreland protection. These included Lake Christina in Douglas County, Fish Lake in Stearns County, Cedar Lake in Meeker County, and Geneva Lake in Freeborn County. This effort addresses the goal of protecting lands adjacent to shallow lakes as outlined in the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources' ""Six-Year Strategic Plan for the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund"" and in the Minnesota DNR's ""Duck Recovery Plan"". DU attempted to work with 12 landowners on these lakes to secure conservation easements. Most were either non-responsive or declined to consider conservation easements for various reasons, and none were willing to consider donating easements due to the impact on the value of their land. Five landowners agreed to consider selling conservation easements, and easements were appraised. Three of these landowners declined to proceed, whereas two ultimately agreed to sell conservation easements.

Conservation easements will be acquired on approximately 150 acres of privately owned shoreland and up to 60 acres of lands previously converted for cropping will be restored back to wildlife habitat. Lands being considered for permanent protection in this round of funding are located in Beltrami, Douglas, Freeborn, Grant, Meeker, Pope, Stearns, Swift, and Wright counties.OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Shallow lakes represent the core of Minnesota's remaining waterfowl habitat. Shallow lakes are defined by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) as basins 50 acres or larger with maximum depth of 15 feet or less. To help protect shallow lakes of importance to waterfowl, Ducks Unlimited (DU) works with private landowners to limit future subdivision and development of shoreland around shallow lakes by securing permanent DU conservation easements, and restores agricultural lands back to habitat where possible. Through this grant, DU conducted landowner outreach to promote conservation easements to private landowners on select shallow lakes of importance to waterfowl, and offered to purchase or accept donated permanent conservation easements on shallow lakes DU has prioritized for shoreland protection. These included Lake Christina in Douglas County, Fish Lake in Stearns County, Cedar Lake in Meeker County, and Geneva Lake in Freeborn County. This effort addresses the goal of protecting lands adjacent to shallow lakes as outlined in the Legislative-Citizen Commission on Minnesota Resources' ""Six-Year Strategic Plan for the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund"" and in the Minnesota DNR's ""Duck Recovery Plan"". DU attempted to work with 12 landowners on these lakes to secure conservation easements. Most were either non-responsive or declined to consider conservation easements for various reasons, and none were willing to consider donating easements due to the impact on the value of their land. Five landowners agreed to consider selling conservation easements, and easements were appraised. Three of these landowners declined to proceed, whereas two ultimately agreed to sell conservation easements. DU subsequently closed two purchased conservation easements permanently protecting 33 acres on Cedar Lake in Meeker County and 70 acres on Lake Christina in Douglas County. Of these 103.8 acres, 53 acres on Lake Christina were restored and the remaining 48 acres were intact natural habitats.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is using these funds to cover professional services costs associated with these property transfers.OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The purpose of this funding was to help cover the cost of professional services related to transfer of Wildlife Management Area (WMA) property to the DNR from Habitat Conservation Partnership (HCP) partners. Several HCP partners have received funding for WMA acquisition. The process of conveying title to this land from partner to DNR results in direct costs to DNR for things such as staff time for DNR Division of Lands and Minerals and the Attorney General's Office, survey costs, recording fees, abstracting fees, property taxes, and deed taxes. These costs can be considerable and often create strain on other DNR budgets. This funding has supported the conveyance of thirteen WMA parcels from three HCP partners. These thirteen parcels added over 840 acres to the WMA system to be permanently protected and open to public hunting, fishing, and trapping.

Evaluation results showed that 81% of program guests surveyed felt that these programs increased their knowledge of Minnesota history, places and culture. 71% of guests responded that these programs increased their personal connection to history. A new training program, ""Conversation as Interpretation,"" was developed to train staff for these new programs to make experiences more conversational and engaging, while preparing them to be more comfortable in discussing sensitive subject matter. The Alexander Ramsey House continued implementation of its popular new programs. The innovative programs include monthly History Happy Hours; a Ramsey After Dark series, where the secrets of Victorian life are exposed; Ramsey Time Capsule family days, including parlor games and other hands-on activities for children; and History Chef cooking classes, where participants use Ramsey family recipes to create authentic Victorian dishes in the Ramsey House kitchen. Program development areas also expanded to other areas of the state. Historic Forestville developed and implemented a new special event, Civil War Encampment Days of '63. As part of the commemoration of the Battle of Gettysburg's sesquicentennial, this experience included a recreated Civil War military camp, fire muskets, and special presentation of the Gettysburg Address by a costumed interpreter portraying Abraham Lincoln.

A Museum Theater will also be added in the Spring of 2020 to show screenings of classic Hmong documentaries including “Miao Year” (1968), Disappearing World (1972) and Becoming American (1982). Through enhanced marketing of our unique museum theater, Saint Paul and Minnesota residents will have greater opportunities to learn about Hmong heritage and culture in Minnesota. The proposed project to enhance marketing of our museum and library builds strongly on Hmong Cultural Center’s unique heritage over the past 27 years teaching the Minnesota public about Hmong culture and history. It is also strongly related to a key goal of the Legacy fund: “Arts, history and cultural heritage programs will engage our diverse communities from every corner of the state in celebrating the richness of our differences while building greater understanding and connection to the values that bind us together.” There are two central community needs that this project is intended to respond to in a substantive manner: Cultural heritage education for the Hmong Minnesotan Population Multicultural education for the broader Twin Cities and Minnesota Population ","In March 2020, we bought the large screen TV (Samsung Electronics 4K Smart LED TV (2018), 75"") for the museum.

Students will describe how much they know about a certain topic before reading through and interacting with Hmong Museum's website.

We were able to achieve that goal with the completion of the learnuake.org website. Our goal was to complete 15 articles along with 10 curriculum that would follow those articles. All of these were accomplished. Another goal was to work with a Hmong artist to create drawings that would engage and help illustrate the articles.

HSPF SAM derived outputs are also used in the MPCA hosted Watershed Pollution Load Reduction Calculator Tool (WPLRCT), which use is expanding to support state and local government watershed planning, strategy, and implementation efforts. HSPF SAM was developed in the 2010’s and will need to be maintained and enhanced in order for it to continue to be a viable application in MPCAs technology portfolio.  This work order will provide RESPEC staff time to assist in a parallel project with the University of Minnesota Bioproducts Bioengineering Department (U of M) who is investigating future needs and enhancements for HSPF SAM. RESPEC staff will help inform that work and also provide documentation on the past and current state of the software application. Additionally, RESPEC will update the HSPF SAM website with current watershed datasets and versions of the HSPF SAM software for download.

","Minnesota faces many water quality and quantity challenges. State, federal and local organizations are faced with understanding hydrologic and water-quality problems and targeting cost effective solutions that are based in science. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has standardized its modeling approach for the development of the Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategies (WRAPS) and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) reports required by state and federal law. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) uses the Hydrologic Simulation Program – Fortran (HSPF) model to provide a highly effective means to understand hydrologic and water quality processes over various land surfaces and water bodies. Because HSPF is a continuous model representing the complex physical and chemical processes and interactions, and because it is calibrated over extended time periods, it is conducive to understanding current watershed conditions. Through careful changes to model inputs, it may be used to evaluate impacts of potential watershed changes and/or the implementation of best management practices, helping pinpoint effective management approaches. However, the complexity of HSPF makes it difficult for non-modeling end users to quickly get the needed information from these models. The MPCA has funded the development and support of many different tools that facilitate the development, enhancement, and application of the HSPF modeling software.

Once in the environment, mercury can convert to a form called methylmercury where it bioaccumulates up the food chain from microscopic plants and animals to fish and then to humans and wildlife that consume the fish. The first step in solving the problem of mercury in fish is reducing the sources of mercury entering waters. Significant efforts are underway to reduce the amount of mercury released from human sources such as smokestacks and wastewater discharge, which will address the majority of the mercury entering the environment. However, there are a percentage of watersheds where mercury appears to have enhanced concentrations due to factors that are particular to the ecology of a watershed and not mainly driven by the amount of mercury entering the watershed. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is using this appropriation to better understand the probable causes of high mercury levels in fish in watersheds where atmospheric deposition alone does not account for the high mercury levels in order to determine what additional measures beyond source reduction can be taken to reduce mercury levels in those watersheds.",,http://www.lccmr.leg.mn/projects/2014/work_plans/2014_03j.pdf,2014-07-01,2017-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Bruce,Monson,"Minnesota Pollution Control Agency","520 Lafayette Rd","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 757-2579",bruce.monson@state.mn.us,,"Minnesota Pollution Control Agency",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/identifying-causes-exceptionally-high-mercury-fish-0,,,,

Audubon Minnesota is using this appropriation to develop a single, clear operational plan that provides specific guidelines for Minnesota bird conservation. The project will build upon existing efforts and employ an inclusive, consensus-based planning process to deliver a plan that identifies and begins implementing the most strategic and effective conservation actions for Minnesota's priority bird species at both the local and statewide level. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Many national, regional, and state conservation plans broadly address Minnesota birds, but a consolidated and focused state conservation agenda does not exist. The goal of this initiative was to develop a clear operational plan for Minnesota conservation organizations and resource agencies that builds on existing plans, establishes priorities to guide conservation actions, and identifies conservation targets. Plans were prepared for Minnesota's four ecological provinces: the Tallgrass Aspen Parklands, the Laurentian Mixed-Forest, the Eastern Broadleaf Forest and the Prairie Parkland. The bird composition of each province is sufficiently distinct to warrant a different approach and different priorities. Three tasks were implemented in each province:First Task: Delineated a pool of priority species and selected a subset of conservation target species.Second Task: Decided where, among the suite of Minnesota's 48 Important Bird Areas (IBAs), it is most important to work to protect and manage these species.Third Task: Developed a toolbox of conservation actions to insure these species maintain viable populations on the priority IBAs, as well as throughout Minnesota.Titled An Implementation Blueprint for Minnesota Bird Conservation, the operational plan's components include:Implementation Blueprints for Bird Conservation in each ecological province, which identify clear priorities to guide conservation actions;conservation accounts for 78 priority species;detailed Conservation Blueprints for nine target species;a database compiling critical information on 434 Minnesota birds;a publication that highlights twelve of Minnesota's stewardship species (species that have >5% of their global population in the state and >5% of their North American breeding range in the state); andmanagement plans for three of Minnesota's priority Important Bird Areas (Goose Lake Swamp IBA, the Twin Cities Mississippi River IBA, and the Vermillion Bottoms-Cannon River IBA).PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATIONThe Conservation Blueprints were used in the development of Audubon's recently completed Guide to Urban Bird Conservation (Spring 2012): http://mn.audubon.org/twin-cities-bird-conservation.A booklet, Stewardship Birds of Minnesota: Our Global Responsibility was published in June 2012.Findings were presented at nine workshops and eleven additional statewide and regional meetings.The Common Tern Minnesota Conservation Blueprint was used at a Structured Decision Making meeting to inform future Common Tern management at the Rice Lake National Wildlife refuge.Audubon is exploring ways to make all project data available to resource managers in a GIS format; in the interim Conservation Blueprints for the nine conservation targets and Implementation Blueprints for each ecological province will be available on the Audubon Minnesota website.Information is helping update Minnesota's Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy.",,"Final Report",2010-07-01,2012-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Lee,Pfannmuller,"Audubon Minnesota","2357 Ventura Dr, Ste 106","St. Paul",MN,55125,"(612) 810-1173",leepfann@msn.com,"Analysis/Interpretation, Assessment/Evaluation, Education/Outreach/Engagement, Planning, Technical Assistance","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/integrated-operational-bird-conservation-plan-minnesota,,,,

Through this appropriation, the Minnesota Department of Education is working to combat these trends while also improving the achievement of students in grades 7-12. Professional development and grants for innovative programs are being provided to help teachers use the environment and outdoors as a context for student learning in science, mathematics, social studies, and physical education. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS With research indicating that students are increasingly disconnected from nature, the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) in cooperation with the Department of Natural Resources was funded to hire a full-time coordinator to lead a project to train and support grade 7-12 teachers to integrate environmental and outdoor education (EOE) into the instruction of academic standards. Professional development and grants of up to $8,500 were provided to six pilot schools to support 50 teachers and administrators in their use of the environment and outdoors as a context for student learning, which resulted in engaging over 1,000 students in EOE on a regular basis. A full report of the project, including evaluation of the training and student learning and model lessons, was submitted to LCCMR. Beyond the original goals of the project, the project coordinator also developed partnerships with several EOE providers to coordinate and offer five, additional, day-long regional workshops at minimal cost that were attended by 108 additional educators not from the pilot schools. The project coordinator also developed and implemented Minnesota's participation in the first two years of the U.S. Department of Education's Green Ribbon Schools Program that recognizes schools for efforts to reduce their environmental impact and implement EOE throughout their curriculum. Minnesota led the nation with the most applicants in 2013 and seven Minnesota schools and districts were among 156 schools that received the national award to date. Workshops led by the coordinator at the sites of Minnesota's three 2012 national honorees were attended by over 100 people. A position at MDE to integrate EOE has provided credibility and prioritization of EOE at Minnesota schools and within the department. It has resulted in better coordination among Minnesota's many EOE providers and plans exist for future coordination with MDE standards and health program staff. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Information about the project, including the final report and model lessons, will be posted on the SEEK (Sharing Environmental Education Knowledge) website at www.seek.state.mn.us, hosted by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. In addition to the numerous EOE workshops and training led by the coordinator, the coordinator has directly reached over 2,300 other educators through technical assistance and teaching, including participating in several workshops, programs and events. The coordinator also made regular efforts to promote activities related to the project and the benefits of environmental and outdoor education whenever possible throughout the duration of the project. EOE information, resources and achievements, such as the Green Ribbon Schools honorees, were regularly shared through MDE's Superintendents mailings and department listserves, and newsletters and listserves by SEEK, Minnesota Association for Environmental Education, Minnesota Science Teachers Association, Green Schools Coalition, Children and Nature Connection, Minnesota Sustainable Communities Network and many others. The coordinator had occasional opportunities to do some media activities, including a 20 minute interview about the value of EOE on the April 1, 2013 show of the podcast, Mom Enough, which has a national following of several thousand listeners. The interview can be found at http://momenough.com/2013/04/lets-get-outside-tips-for-parents-and-teachers-from-an-environmental-educator-and-creative-dad. Local media from the communities of the pilot schools and Green Ribbon School honorees also developed news stories covering the value of EOE activities. The introductory EOE regional workshops developed with the DNR, Jeffers Foundation and other local partners have led to additional opportunities for coordinated workshops.

Over 100 artists whose performances are contained in these collections were contacted to request permission for enhanced accessibility by the public to some of the recordings. By the project's completion date 25 artists had responded giving permission to use recordings of their works for enhanced public accessibility to these collections. Since 12/1/15 more artists have granted permission and the total now stands at 34. Even if no other artists grant the requested permissions to stream some of their performances on line, use them in radio broadcasts and include them in future anthology releases, the current amount of material accessible for these purposes is more than enough to accomplish the intended outcome -- that of making the public more aware of the Folk Music Archive at Elmer L.

Both the physical building and the construction documents will be used for donor development toward the next phase of rehabilitation. The construction drawings provide the opportunity to continue work on sections of the barn as funding and time permit. Combined, the building and construction documents provide a solid measurement of achievement toward measurable outcomes.

We feel we can best explain the answer to this question in person and if possible would contend for that. ","Our project has been rolling out with the four outcomes in mind:Gather stories from Karen and Karenni elders in both Minnesota and our homelandUse these stories to build a youth centered, learning program where participants can connect with and explore their identity, history, heritage, and homeland.Learning through knowledge co-creation, storytelling circles, primary source panels and interviews, youth in this program will be empowered to drive the development of the first ever Karen and Karenni history archive.Preserve the learnings from this program to be archived and organized for all Minnesotans to access. A detailed and measurable plan was set by our team to make sure all outcomes are accomplished by June 30th. (See below) MILESTONESSeptember 2022 - January 2023 Focus on building the systems and planning for the archive Conduct listening and story circle sessions with youth and young adults in the communityGather initial stories, interviews and history about Karen and Karenni history, culture and heritage December 2022 - January 2023 will be spent in Thailand and Myanmar February 2023 - April 2023 Organize initial interviews and historical evidence into an online archive model Begin developing a pilot cohort of Karen and Karenni youth to engage with stories and interviews gathered This will include knowledge co-construction & story circle processes April 2023 - June 2023Offer opportunities for pilot cohort participants to research and participate in interviews to grow the development of the archive Gather feedback and make adjustments to launch a full year, cohort model youth program for the 2023/2024 school year This will give us a chance to grow and continue to develop the Karen and Karenni archive We are on track with our measured outcomes to date. If we accomplish the above four outcomes, we expect to see two measurable results by June 30th. The first result of this project will be the digital, online archive that consists of the interviews completed throughout the 9 months of the grant. These interviews are based on the information and knowledge we collected from stakeholders and community members in the Fall of 2022. The second result that we will have completed is detailed feedback and data from our pilot cohort that will help us plan next steps with the digital archive. We are excited to already have Outcome #1: Focus on systems and planning for the archive As a team, we met with local historians, archive experts & librarians to get feedback and ideas on how to best conduct oral interviews Notable Dates: October 26th - One day of work with Podcast/Blogger Joah McGee to discuss how to formulate questions and develop trust in interviews November 4th - Meeting with Saengmany (Director of East Side Freedom Library) NOTES ATTACHED We hosted 4 listening sessions with our local Karen community; this allowed us to practice the structure of story circles and provided data for what type of information we should gather in our interviews Dates of listening sessions: 9/29, 10/17, 11/15 & 11/29 Example of notes taken from a listening session **Changes based on outcome #1 results: A theme/pattern we continued to notice in our listening sessions was the desire from youth/young adults to capture cultural components of the Karen culture just as much as the history aspect. We decided to try to capture stories and information about history and culture based on this feedback Outcome #2: Use these stories to create a youth centered learning program This is slated to occur in February - April timeline, however, we have already created a youth cohort session that we believe will be where we pull from initially for the pilot cohort Outcome #3: Develop feedback and adjustments to launch a history, heritage, homeland cohort This will occur near the end of our archive project (May & June) Outcome #4: Archive development To date, we have curated interviews from community members both locally and abroad; please find attached an example interview We are researching various digital archives that currently exist to help determine how we want organize and set up the archive; the planning stages of the digital archive can be found here; Measurable Outcomes: Gather stories from Karen and Karenni elders in both Minnesota and our homelandThis can be tracked on our youtube page (@urbanvillage2279)Use these stories to build a youth centered, learning program where participants can connect with and explore their identity, history, heritage, and homeland.This was tracked on our After School Scholars program; Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout the school year Learning through knowledge co-creation, storytelling circles, primary source panels and interviews, youth in this program will be empowered to drive the development of the first ever Karen and Karenni history archive.Notes were taken at many of our story circle events and used to adapt and revise our interview questions and process as well as content collected from interviewees Preserve the learnings from this program to be archived and organized for all Minnesotans to access. Access to the digital archive can be found at www.theurbanvillage.com The outcomes of this project were completed and the product of a digital archive has now been created and ready to expand. Our work was achieved in large part to the commitment of youth in our community who attended our After School Scholarsmeetings on Tuesdays and Thursdays and shared consistently what was helpful and what was missing from our primary source interviews. Feedback from the community has been our driving force of measuring our goals and ensuring that our outcomes are achieved. We gained feedback predominantly through the story circle format to ensure all voices were heard and incorporated. We broke up our four outcomes into measurable timelines throughout the year to ensure we were on track to achieve our goals requested through the Humanities Grant.

These interviews are based on the information and knowledge we collected from stakeholders and community members in the Fall of 2022. The second result is detailed feedback and data from our pilot cohort that will help us plan next steps with the digital archive. Since the interim report, our need to prioritize funding staff grew larger. As we continued to gather interviews and resources for the archive, we discovered the importance of gaining community feedback and input. Therefore, our Program Director, Tu Lor Eh Paw, increased her hours to include a focused time each week where she shared our interviews with youth participating in our programs. This helped us discover what was working with the archive and what needed to be revised to become more user friendly and welcoming to our youth that we serve.

We took on a new task of determining which factors are contributing to fish IBI impairments on lakes; we drafted 9 stressor ID reports for the MPCA. Aquatic Plant IBI: In FY15 EWR biologists organized analyzed and delivered aquatic plant data on 152 lakes in priority watersheds. A variety of DNR programs collect lake plant data; we used these data for the plant IBI assessments. To help maintain this important data source we finalized survey protocols for aquatic plant IBI assessments wrote a manual of these standardized survey methods and held training workshops for 150 DNR Fish and Wildlife staff involved in lake plant surveys. In addition we did more detailed in-lake surveys on eight priority lakes in the Rum River Watershed where there was not enough existing plant data to calculate an IBI. Biologists surveyed shoreline habitat and/or delineated emergent plant stands on 25 lakes in the Rum River and Mississippi River-Brainerd watersheds We also made progress enhancing software to gather and manage data which will make it easier for more biologists from other DNR programs to survey shoreline habitat and/or delineate emergent plant stands.",,,,956280,96351,,14.1,,,"The Index of Biological Integrity (IBI) is a tool that can identify water pollution problems based on the type and abundance of selected plants or animals.

While originally we planned for 3 physical exhibits (or in the event of another pandemic or MN-specific emergency, online festival) community concerns obliged us to convene partial implementations at the Lao Center of Minnesota, the Lao Advancement Organization and the Forest Lake and Warroad communities. The primary concern came from recent elder-service programs where potentially having a high-number of strangers passing in and out of the shared common community space was a bit more high-risk with their recently expanded client rolls. There was also concern regarding the safety of many of the items we'd planned to display. Initial testing in the community spaces resulted in a few items being ""borrowed"" in a way that we had to revise some of our thinking on this matter. We scaled back with softer promotion and refocused on more online performances and presentations, in addition to socially-distanced pop-up shows. The online exhibit received excellent feedback and results, but current conversations are also looking for ways to improve presentation and to retool some poems to address a variety of post-exhibit questions that emerged.

This amount of fossil fuel use results in a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions, while the absence of fossil energy resources in the state means that these synthetic nitrogen fertilizers must be imported into Minnesota from other states and overseas. In response to this, researchers at the University of Minnesota West Central Research and Outreach Center are using this appropriation to conduct modeling and analysis of the viability of options for using different renewable energy technologies that could be implemented in Minnesota for generating nitrogen fertilizer. Findings have the potential to help reduce agricultural energy related production costs and make rural communities more energy independent.",,http://www.lccmr.leg.mn/projects/2014/work_plans/2014_08e.pdf,2014-07-01,2017-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Joel,Tallaksen,"U of MN","46352 State Hwy 329",Morris,MN,56267,"(320) 589-1711",tall0007@umn.edu,,"University of Minnesota ",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/life-cycle-energy-renewably-produced-nitrogen-fertilizers-0,,,,

Natural resource professionals use models and ""estimators"" to quantify these outcomes and benefits and guide future efforts. Over time, as conditions change and new information becomes available, estimators need to be revised or added to ensure outcomes and benefits are being accurately quantified. This appropriation is enabling the Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources to revise and create new estimators where needed, field verify the revised and new estimators, and provide local governments and other conservation professionals with training on how to use the revised and new estimators. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Accounting for on the ground outcomes and measureable environmental benefits to the quality of soil, water, and habitat is an essential component of implementing conservation projects. Local Government Units (LGUs), including Counties, Soil and Water Conservation Districts, and Watershed Districts, utilize pollution reduction estimators to quantify the outcomes of conservation projects. Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) currently utilizes models or 'estimators' to measure the pollution reduction benefits of installed Best Management Practices (BMPs). Estimators quantify the outcomes of conservation practices in terms of reduced soil erosion, sediment and phosphorus reduction, carbon sequestered, etc. In order to improve the accounting of conservation practices and measurement of environmental benefits, existing estimators must be revised and new estimators developed. Through a partnership with the University of Minnesota Department of Soil, Water and Climate, four new estimators were developed: Permanent Cover Erosion Reduction model, the Septic System Improvement Estimator, the Milkhouse Waste Practices Estimator, and the Hydrologic Soil Group - Knowledge Matrix tool. These estimators fill gaps where estimators did not exist previously. The existence of these estimators allows Local Government Units and other conservation partners to better quantify the environmental outcomes of conservation implementation. Training for LGUs and other conservation partners was conducted and made available in multiple formats (in-person, webinar, instructional videos). Many LGUs have already used the new estimators and we anticipate widespread adoption in the future.Additional results include development of a framework to model and track movement of endocrine disrupting compounds and a data quality analysis of pollution reduction reporting. Three reports resulted from the work in the project. The reports are listed and briefly summarized below.Modeling Soil Erosion with Caesium-137: This report explains the process of modeling landscape-scale soil erosion and provides instructions on using the model to estimate long-term average erosion rates.eLINK Data Quality Control Analysis: This report provides an overview of the pollution reduction estimates in eLINK and recommends actions to improve data quality and completeness.Endocrine Disrupting Chemical Retention Framework: This report explains the behavior of endocrine disrupting compounds in the environment and provides a framework for measuring the movement and transport of such chemicals.PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION< The estimators are used by LGUs and conservation partners to quantify outcomes of installed Best Management Practices. The measured outcomes are collected in BWSR's eLINK database. The associated eLINK Data Quality Control Analysis report helps BWSR improve reporting of conservation project outcomes by recommending actions for improving education and outreach and developing internal mechanisms for quality control.

Natural resource professionals use models and ""estimators"" to quantify these outcomes and benefits and guide future efforts. Over time, as conditions change and new information becomes available, estimators need to be revised or added to ensure outcomes and benefits are being accurately quantified. This appropriation is enabling the Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources to revise and create new estimators where needed, field verify the revised and new estimators, and provide local governments and other conservation professionals with training on how to use the revised and new estimators. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Accounting for on the ground outcomes and measureable environmental benefits to the quality of soil, water, and habitat is an essential component of implementing conservation projects. Local Government Units (LGUs), including Counties, Soil and Water Conservation Districts, and Watershed Districts, utilize pollution reduction estimators to quantify the outcomes of conservation projects. Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) currently utilizes models or 'estimators' to measure the pollution reduction benefits of installed Best Management Practices (BMPs). Estimators quantify the outcomes of conservation practices in terms of reduced soil erosion, sediment and phosphorus reduction, carbon sequestered, etc. In order to improve the accounting of conservation practices and measurement of environmental benefits, existing estimators must be revised and new estimators developed. Through a partnership with the University of Minnesota Department of Soil, Water and Climate, four new estimators were developed: Permanent Cover Erosion Reduction model, the Septic System Improvement Estimator, the Milkhouse Waste Practices Estimator, and the Hydrologic Soil Group - Knowledge Matrix tool. These estimators fill gaps where estimators did not exist previously. The existence of these estimators allows Local Government Units and other conservation partners to better quantify the environmental outcomes of conservation implementation. Training for LGUs and other conservation partners was conducted and made available in multiple formats (in-person, webinar, instructional videos). Many LGUs have already used the new estimators and we anticipate widespread adoption in the future.Additional results include development of a framework to model and track movement of endocrine disrupting compounds and a data quality analysis of pollution reduction reporting. Three reports resulted from the work in the project. The reports are listed and briefly summarized below.Modeling Soil Erosion with Caesium-137: This report explains the process of modeling landscape-scale soil erosion and provides instructions on using the model to estimate long-term average erosion rates.eLINK Data Quality Control Analysis: This report provides an overview of the pollution reduction estimates in eLINK and recommends actions to improve data quality and completeness.Endocrine Disrupting Chemical Retention Framework: This report explains the behavior of endocrine disrupting compounds in the environment and provides a framework for measuring the movement and transport of such chemicals.PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION< The estimators are used by LGUs and conservation partners to quantify outcomes of installed Best Management Practices. The measured outcomes are collected in BWSR's eLINK database. The associated eLINK Data Quality Control Analysis report helps BWSR improve reporting of conservation project outcomes by recommending actions for improving education and outreach and developing internal mechanisms for quality control. Work completed by the University of Minnesota has gained interest amongst the broader scientific community and has been presented at international conferences.

10013363,"MIGIZI Communications",2020,80600,"Minn. State Legislature Article 4, Section 2, Subdivision 8, (d)","$850,000 the first year and $850,000 the second year are for a competitive grants program to provide grants to preserve and promote the cultural heritage of Minnesota. The Minnesota Humanities Center must operate a competitive grants program to provide grants to programs that preserve and honor the cultural heritage of Minnesota or that provide education and student outreach on cultural diversity or to programs that empower communities to build their identity and culture. Priority must be given to grants for individuals and organizations working to create, celebrate, and teach indigenous arts and cultural activities and arts organizations and programs preserving, sharing, and educating on the arts and cultural heritage of immigrant communities in Minnesota. ","As a community radio station KFAI is proud to broadcast Native American current affairs and music programming to diverse audiences. KFAI’s MinneCulture has been making short and long form audio stories about Minnesota arts and cultural heritage for the past decade, and MinneCulture producers have won numerous awards for their work. KFAI MinneCulture subscribes to a human-designed centered model for creating new stories for radio and podcast. For this project we begin by asking, “What does my audience need in order to feel connected to topics and subject matter. For this project, editors and producers intend to focus on an appropriate theme for the year: Superpowers: Making Visible the Invisible. As audio story tellers, KFAI MinneCulture believes that when we meet the needs of our audiences to feel better connected to Minnesota arts and cultural heritage our listeners continue to tune in to our broadcasts, and continue to search out our content online. For this reason, KFAI MinneCulture will be collecting the number of streams and downloads for our social media sites and reporting it back to Migizi. We feel strongly that in a media saturated landscape collecting data on the number of streams and downloads is an important evaluation method. One important difference between broadcast formats and newer podcast platforms is that listeners seek out stories that are made available on digital platforms -- and so in this sense downloads and streams are an important data set because we recognize that we are fulfilling an audience’s need for more content related to subject matter that interests them, in this instance, American Indian art, history, and culture in Minnesota. Our project consultant will also work with KFAI editor to track the number of downloads on the Public Radio Exchange, the carriage reports of AMPERS community radio stations across Minnesota who broadcast our stories throughout the year, and comments on social media sites. We expect to reach 500-1200 listeners on the radio each month when our short stories are broadcast on Wednesday night at 7pm on MinneCulture presents, and an additional 500-1200 listeners when the stories are broadcast as interstitials (between the hour) on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8am and 4pm. We expect each of our stories on Soundcloud to reach between 250-400 listeners. We expect to stream each of stories between 100-200 each month on our digital platforms We will share our stories with all 18 of the AMPERS radio stations on PRX We expect that between 8-10 public and community radio stations throughout the United States will air our short stories in their respective markets. We expect to harvest 4-6 comments per story (including hashtags and/or tweets) from our social media sites Data on downloads helps us to continue to build our audiences by continuing to ask in this instance, “How well did our producers make the invisible visible?” KFAI will provide data to Migizi Communications and continue to discuss our theme and our stories throughout the year. KFAI’s MinneCulture already collects social media data and comments on an ongoing basis to evaluate its own programming. A sample of MinneCulture data reveals: In 2018, 17 different MinneCulture producers submitted 62 stories. On SoundCloud we reached 15.9K streams in 2018, and 21.2K in 2019. In 2018, 43 of our 62 short stories were licensed by eight stations: WAMC Northeast Public Radio, WDBM East Lansing, MI, PRX Remix, KBCS Bellevue, WA, KMUN Astoria, OR, KVSC St. Cloud, MN, KUMD Duluth, MN, Cards Against Humanity: The Good News Podcast. An internal look at the diversity in our programming reveals that in 2018 34 (of 63) short stories featured the voices of women as the primary interview subject; 20 feature voices of people of color; 8 feature stories about Minnesotan art pertaining to the LGBTQ+ community. In addition to the compliments posted in response to our stories on a rolling basis (“Wow” “Fascinating”), KFAI’s MinneCulture harvests comments from our social media sites. A recent story about a historical site in Minnesota yielded the following from one of our listeners in praise of the context our producer provided, “Few have a sense of even American history much less world history. Any event in history has to be evaluated within the CONTEXT of events that went before and after it. Myopia completely distorts one's perspective in evaluating any one event.” Another recent story we reported about public art at Bde Maka Ska related the impact of the story on educators, “Thanks for the post. Will share with my students.” KFAI editors will continue to harvest and report these to Migizi throughout the year. The results will be shared with Migizi staff to help tell the story of the archive as we move forwards with the larger goal of creating additional content. Understanding how to attract and grow our audience will aid Migizi and its media partners in seeking to create more content, including long-form multi-season podcasts and long form documentaries. Learning what our audiences need and how we work to make them feel better connected. Those comments will help our project to continue to delve into subject matter that is meaningful for listeners. We know we are successful when listeners consistently return to stream and download or broadcast our stories. ","In progress ","outcomes data not yet available",,,,,"Joseph A.

","The goals of this project were to: Begin the digitization of our audio archives with 24 pieces, to enable future use by Migizi and others; Teach two Migizi youth media interns basic audio skills and have them help create the sample rough cut. Create a 15-25 min Rough-cut of samples from each of the audio reels; Host two convenings/listening sessions and play samples and rough cut for community members and solicit feedback. ","Migizi followed the recommendations of community members and legacy producers, from archivists and audio professionals, and chose 24 pieces of reel-to-reel tape from the archive between the years 1978 and 1987. We have digitized these 24 pieces of audio material from the Migizi Legacy Radio archive, based on the priorities articulated by the community members who met in late January and the audio professional who helped us determine a method for assessing the state of the archive. We first convened a small group of original producers of the programs and formed an advisory committee. The community consultant, Melissa Olson, presented a ‘rough-cut’ of digitized material from these first three reels to the first convening of Migizi’s legacy radio archive on January 23rd. The rough cut is approximately 15-minutes in length and features the work of several of the original producers of The Native American Program. The producers of Migizi’s legacy programming who were in attendance at the Jan 23 convening spoke about their hopes for digitizing the archive. Producer Scott Raymond said he believed it was important to make the archival material available to producers, and especially Native producers, who might want to repurpose the archive to create documentary and/or reference work. Producer Janice Command spoke to her desire to see the material preserved as a part of a historical record that could be made available to scholars, researchers, and historians interested in the Red Power Movement of the 1970s. Executive Director Laura Waterman Wittstock, who had originally been responsible for the distribution of Migizi’s programming stated that she would like to see the archived preserved in a location where it would have the broadest possible availability to interested producers, researches, scholars, and historians. Based on all recommendations, the community consultant chose 24 pieces of archival material to be digitized and delivered them to John Miller, who not only digitized the tapes, but evaluated the archive and gave us specific recommendations for future preservation and conversion to digital format. After the convening and the digitization, we transcribed the programs. We chose two American Indian high-school students to listen to the recordings and read along through the transcripts and select certain sections they thought were of particular cultural and/or historical significance. Melissa Olson created an assignment for them and mentored them through this process of completing an assignment through to deadline. Both youth producers listened to hours of tape, read transcripts, and selected clips from those transcripts—learning how to build a radio or audio story in the same ways stories are created by professional journalists. One of our youth says he connected with the material in ways that surprised him. He says he was intrigued to hear stories about Native youth going back to the late 1970s that resonated with his experience of the world today, and says that material motivated him to choose clips that contained facts and data that helped to tell the story of the archive. We have begun to do outreach and publicize the existence and importance of the project. The clips chosen by the youth producers were compiled by the Community Consultant and KFAI Fresh Air Community Radio as a 24 minute Supercut that represents selections from each newly digitized recording. The Supercut is intended to be shared with community members and partners as an example of the Migizi Legacy Radio Archive through Migizi’s website and social media platforms.

A. Eight full-length unedited HD video interviews/oral histories with the following Minnesota architects and educators: 1. Vincent James, FAIA and Jennifer Yoos, FAIA, of VJAA architects. The firm, Vincent James Associates Architects, was founded in 1995 and was named National AIA Architecture Firm of the Year in 2012. Vincent and Jennifer are both Minnesota-born and children of academics. Writing and teaching have been important parts of their architectural careers. Significant award-winning commissions include the St. John's Abbey Chapter House and Chapel in Collegeville, MN; the Bruce and Judy Dayton house overlooking Lake of the Isles; the Rowing Club boathouse in Minneapolis; and the Charles Hostler student center at Tulane University. 2. John Lackens, FAIA, and Herb Ketcham, FAIA. After working at Cerny Associates, they founded the Architectural Alliance in 1970 with Bob Bell, based on a model inspired by the Bauhaus. The firm designed several corporate headquarters in the Twin Cities, including Land O'Lakes, which earned a 25-Year Award from AIA-MN, and developed a specialty in aviation architecture, starting with MSP, which has become a major part of the firm's work today. Herb and John developed an innovative fee structure and are proud of the transfer of ownership in the firm that has fostered new leadership. 3. Leonard Parker, FAIA, and AIA-MN Gold Medal winner, was born in Poland. His family escaped to the US in 1923 and Leonard grew up in Milwaukee, WI. A bicycle trip to Racine to see the Johnson's Wax headquarters, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, convinced Leonard that he wanted to become an architect. He was working for Eero Saarinen when he founded his own office, Leonard Parker Associates, in 1959 in Minneapolis. Important commissions include the Minnesota Judicial Building, the U of M Law School, and the Jewish Community Center in St. Paul. Leonard played a significant role in the creation of the Minnesota State Designer Selection Board. This was a posthumous interview with Francis Bulbulian, FAIA, and Gary Mahaffey, FAIA, partners in Leonard Parker Associates; and Aaron Parker, architect and Leonard's son. 4. Joan Soranno, FAIA, a design principal at HGA; and John Cook, FAIA, a senior project architect at HGA, together established a small in-house design studio within HGA that serves as an incubator for innovative design. The Lakewood Cemetery Garden Mausoleum and a new entrance pavilion for the Walker Art Museum are examples of their work. In the interview they speak of their complementary skills and how their collaborations work. 5. Dennis Sun Rhodes, Northern Arapahoe, founder of AmerINDIAN Architecture, grew up on the Wild River Indian Reservation in Wyoming. He is one of a very few Native American architects in the nation. Dennis brought Native American cultural identity and symbolism to the design of schools, colleges, public administration buildings and casinos. This interview included Dan Feidt, AIA, a co-founder with Dennis of AmerINDIAN and Great Horse architecture firms. 6. Edward Sovik, FAIA, was a towering figure in post-war church architecture and founder of SMSQ Architects in Northfield. Born and raised in China, the son of a missionary, Sovik believed church architecture should not be entrenched in the past, but reflective of contemporary life. This was a posthumous interview with Gary Johnson, AIA, and Pepe Kryzda, AIA. 7. Beverly Hauschild-Baron, Honorary AIA, was Executive Vice President of AIA-MN for more than 30 years. From this unique perspective, Beverly provided valuable insight into the profession of architecture and the many initiatives and causes in which Minnesota architects have been involved, as well as how the profession has changed over the years. 8. Val Michelson, FAIA, Russian born and trained architect, prisoner of war escapee, Michelson narrowly made it to the West. For Marcel Breuer, he supervised the complex construction of St. John's Abbey Church in Collegeville, and later founded his own firm, Val Michelson and Associates. This was a posthumous interview with John Yust, AIA, David Bowers, AIA, and Daniel Feidt, AIA. B. Eight edited 10-15 minute summary versions of each interview suitable for online viewing and public presentations. Each short version includes highlights of the full interview, enhanced with additional photography and graphics. They are produced at a professional level with custom lighting and sound recording. They are also available through MNSAH's website: http://www.mnsah.org/programs/modern-masters; and through MNSAH's Vimeo site: https://vimeo.com/mnsah. Northwest Architectural Archives will be the permanent home to edited and uncut digital videos of the interviews along with full transcripts. C. Full written transcripts of each interview for the historical record. To be available online from the MNSAH website and at the Northwest Architectural Archives. Copies are attached to this report. D. Presentation. A presentation of phase three of the project was given at the Annual Convention of the Minnesota Chapter of the American Institute of Architects (AIA-MN), November 15, 2019. There were roughly 250 attendees. A report was also given to the MNSAH membership, E. MNSAH-Minnesota Modern Masters (MMM) has been given a Special Award from AIA-MN. Tom Fisher, Professor and Director of the Minnesota Design Center at the U of MN, described MMM as ""one of the most important archival projects ever attempted in the history of Minnesota's architecture."" He further observed that through its documentation of Minnesota's leading architects, educators, and journalists, the MMM program underscores the important truth that ""buildings are not just created for people; they are also created by people and we can never fully understand the ideas that drive our architecture without also comprehending the ideas of the people who designed or critiqued it.""

More than 300 toolkits, exercises, and other resources also support inclusive understandings of civic education, democratic participation, and community development and change. The content and site structure reflect input from the CLIO advisory group, three focus groups, and other users. People using the site are encouraged to rate and comment on specific items as well. More than 4,500 teachers, civic engagement and youth development program leaders, and community stakeholders have received information about CLIO through email newsletters, direct messages, and handouts or discussions at events. It is harder to know the number of young people reached, in part because we do not require users to register (because that might discourage them from using the resources) and thus cannot track individual users, and also because a single user can show a video to a class or print out a document and share it with a group without any indication of that broader reach. The higher education institutions, youth development organizations, and others who received information about CLIO serve at least 480,000 young people across the state, so we likely met our goal in terms of reach. Trainings we offered definitely increased participants’ capacity to support civic education and engagement. The 75 people who attended the October 18, 2014, day-long “Developing Civic Leaders” event were split almost equally between educators and college students.

Statewide: Road test the Big Orange Dance Machine with an audience then deploy the machine across the state. We are excited to have an outdoor and hands free activity that we can use to promote the power of play during the pandemic. We will work with a contractor to capture photos and videos of people interacting with the machine to share on our social media platforms. ","SAA: Primarily this time period was focused on building the new permanent exhibit, Shipwreck Adventures. We have partially completed several areas of the exhibit and it will open in FY22. We launched a website to get visitors excited about the new exhibit (https://mcm.org/shipwreck-adventures/) that details our design process, interviews our designers and developers, and provides an overview/flythrough video of the space. The Studio: The joy of mark making and color mixing were explored through painting in The Studio. Visitors played collaboratively and individually with different paint experiences. A large-scale group painting activity included a small playhouse and a faux brick wall that were transformed over and over again. Our youngest visitors were invited to explore unique brushes and low paint easels. Imaginopolis: We reengaged the theater professionals to let them know the project will resume after Shipwreck opens. The other areas were completed during the first half of the year. Updates can be found in our interim report. The museum sparked unexpected joy and fun with the Big Orange Dance Machine, a highway message trailer that's been converted into an interactive dance experience. Kids and adults showed off their moves during the machine's appearances at Keg & Case in St. Paul, a community festival in Crystal, a family event at Mears Park, the museum's 40th anniversary block party and the Selby Avenue Jazz Festival. The dance machine helps the museum highlight the power of play beyond our walls. We will provide 2,000 free play kits to families in need. The kits feature tinkering materials such as cloth, springs, cups, a propeller, and include play prompts and tips for parents to support the child during the activity. The museum is working with partner organizations, such as Head Start providers and People Serving People, who are interested in receiving and distributing kits to families they serve.

Atlases are used to set conservation priorities, develop conservation plans, and guide habitat protection and restoration efforts. Minnesota is one of only seven states in the country that has yet to complete a Breeding Bird Atlas. Audubon Minnesota and the Natural Resources Research Institute at the University of Minnesota - Duluth will use this appropriation to continue development of the Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas and create related publications, including a book and online atlas with distribution maps, breeding status, and historical species information. PART 1: AUDUBON MINNESOTA OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas is a statewide survey of the breeding distribution of Minnesota's birds. The project combines efforts, coordinated by Audubon Minnesota, of volunteers and multiple partners to obtain detailed information on breeding status of Minnesota's birds, with systematic and habitat based abundance data, coordinated by the Natural Resources Research Institute at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. The combination of these two efforts represents a powerful addition to understanding the distribution, relative abundance, and habitat use by Minnesota's breeding birds. Over 800 volunteers have participated in the project and have reported over 22,000 hours of donated time. Twenty-nine individuals act as regional coordinators helping to recruit, train, and monitor volunteers. Our database has 207,000 observations on 245 species and confirmed breeding by 226 species around the state. Data has been reported from 5,596 blocks, including 2,166 priority blocks (there is one priority block per township) which gives us data from 92% of the state. Final products will include a book and on-line atlas, including distribution maps, species breeding status, and conservation and historical information. Products will be available to the public as well as conservation agencies and organizations. Information gathered during this project is at the sub-township level and will provide spatial detail more compatible with contemporary remote sensing imagery available for vegetation, water, and development. Data will be useful to a wide variety of organizations including federal agencies, many state agencies such as the MN DNR and MPCA, county land management agencies, and both regional and local organizations to highlight tourism opportunities. Data will also be of great utility for use in agency decision-making regarding the dedicated funding legislation associated with land acquisition and water quality protection. These types of spatially-intensive data sets are essential to make wiser decisions about land use allocations for energy development, transportation networks, and other residential or industrial development. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The primary form of information dissemination to date has been through the Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas website (mnbba.org).

The overall project is divided into two parts: 1) volunteer observations organized by Audubon Minnesota and 2) systematic surveys of Minnesota's breeding birds organized by the University of Minnesota (summarized here). Objectives were to gain uniform statewide coverage for all Minnesota's birds, estimate breeding bird populations by habitat type, and contribute to a nationwide network of bird atlases. Data gathering was primarily completed by graduate and undergraduate students at the University of Minnesota. All passed an aural bird identification test, verified their hearing ability, and participated in field standardization exercises. Over the two breeding seasons (2011 and 2012) of this project, the target of 40% of Minnesota townships (>920) was successfully completed. Currently, over 80% (>1,800) of the townships have been sampled, with over 230 species observed and over 160,000 individuals counted in over 2,800 individual point counts. Thousands of additional breeding observations were submitted by surveyors from this project to the volunteer database in the complementary study organized by Audubon Minnesota, including over 4,000 probable or confirmed breeding records for Minnesota birds. Over 70% of the data gathered during 2009-2012 have been entered, checked for errors, and briefly summarized. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The data gathered through 2010 have been downloaded to the Minnesota breeding bird atlas database and during the fall of 2011 through the Cornell University interface. All of these data will be incorporated into a comprehensive atlas of Minnesota's breeding birds that will be used as 1) a first-ever baseline on the current population status of this important Minnesota resource, 2) critical information for future conservation planning, and 3) as a guide for such activities as identifying important bird areas or for nature-based tourism activities. The ultimate dissemination of these data will be through an interactive data system and we anticipate the publication of a hard copy book assuming suitable funding can be obtained.",,"Final Report",2010-07-01,2012-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Gerald,Niemi,"UMD, NRRI","5013 Miller Trunk Hwy",Duluth,MN,55811,"(218) 720-4270",gniemi@nrri.umn.edu,"Analysis/Interpretation, Digitization/Online Information Access, Inventory, Mapping","University of Minnesota ",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/minnesota-breeding-bird-atlas-u-mn,,,,

This appropriation is available until June 30, 2013, by which time the project must be completed and the final products delivered.","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".",,,,,,,,"Board of Water and Soil Resources","State Government"," PROJECT OVERVIEW Many of the most experienced conservation practitioners at local soil and water conservation districts throughout the state are nearing retirement, and with their departure will go much of their practical, on-the-ground knowledge, experience, and skills. Meanwhile, college students seeking to be the next generation of conservation practitioners have knowledge of emerging technologies and other innovations that can improve and contribute to current conservation efforts. Through this appropriation the Minnesota Board of Soil and Water Resources will work with the Minnesota Conservation Corps to find and place a total of 60 students in apprenticeship positions with county soil and water conservation district offices throughout the state. This unique program will provide an opportunity for interns to gain valuable in-the-field experience from current practitioners while sharing their knowledge with those practitioners about the newest ideas and solutions for meeting today's natural resource challenges. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Many of Minnesota's conservation districts' most experienced conservation professionals and practitioners are nearing retirement age but due to budget constraints will not be replaced until they have left employment. Consequently, Minnesota is missing a great opportunity to transfer knowledge and experience to the next generation responsible for Minnesota's conservation. While college graduates with conservation-related degrees are knowledgeable in technology, theory, and research methods, their practical, on-the-ground skills need development. Communicating with landowners and adjusting designs for field nuances are vital skills for the success of conservation projects and are best learned from seasoned professionals. In turn, apprentices bring knowledge of emerging technologies and other innovations to improve the quality and productivity of current conservation efforts. This allows for a cross-pollination of ideas and solutions for natural resource challenges. From 2011 to 2012, 65 students were placed with 60 Conservation Districts. During this time, the apprentices planted 33,339 trees, took 5,219 samples to monitor water quality; provided environmental education to 1,495 people; conducted 1,372 surveys; restored 1,542 acres of habitat through invasive species removal; completed 466,773 square feet of rain garden planting and maintenance; 272,173 square feet of erosion control and shoreline restoration; and 12,933,645 square feet of seeding. Due to the 2011 state shut down, a shifting of allocated funds allowed for the placement of an additional 35 students with conservation districts in May of 2013. This program has benefits to both students and conservation districts. 100% of apprentices indicated the hands-on experience gained during the apprenticeship will enhance their future academic studies, and that they now have increased technical conservation skills and are more prepared for a future career in conservation. 98% of the Districts were satisfied with the work their apprentices completed, and 100% indicate they would participate in the program again. Managers also indicated that the work conducted by the apprentices increased the amount of conservation practices delivered by their districts during the program period. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION Information from the project has been disseminated through reports to LCCMR, press releases by BWSR and the Governor's Office, local press releases by SWCDs, and through the Conservation Corps newsletter and annual report. Information was used to recruit apprentices and increase awareness of the project. Communication and outreach activities include the aforementioned reports, press releases, and electronic newsletters. Additionally, BWSR and Conservation Corps staff conducted outreach to SWCDs to find optimal matches between districts and apprentices. Through the course of their work, the apprentices conducted significant outreach to land owners and residents in topics ranging from easement protection, to water quality education, to plant biodiversity.",,"FINAL REPORT",2010-07-01,2013-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Steve,Woods,"Board of Water and Soil Resources","520 Lafayette Rd N","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 297-7748",steve.woods@state.mn.us,,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/minnesota-conservation-apprenticeship-academy,,,,

This appropriation is available until June 30, 2013, by which time the project must be completed and final products delivered.","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".",,,,,,,,"International Wolf Center","Non-Profit Business/Entity"," PROJECT OVERVIEW Wolves are an important part of Minnesota's ecosystems and natural history. Minnesota is one of the only places in the lower 48 states where wolves were not completely eliminated by the 1970's and the state has been at the center of wolf population recovery and range expansion ever since. Because of people's widespread interest in wolves, they also provide an important vehicle for educating about nature and the environment. The International Wolf Center in Ely will use this appropriation to expand an educational program to an additional 2,500 students that utilizes wolves as an interdisciplinary educational tool for K-12 students, their teachers, and others throughout Minnesota. The program uses live, interactive distance learning through video conferencing in conjunction with on-site kits to bring wolves directly into the classroom. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOMES AND RESULTSThe project funded:118 live interactive video broadcasts from the International Wolf Center in Ely, Minnesota to inner-city, suburban and rural schools throughout Minnesota.Two new loan boxes. These boxes are shipped to schools in advance of the broadcast. Each box contains: Wolf pelts, claws, teeth, scat, bones of the wolf prey, wolf related books, ink stamps, projects that they can work on and keep and lesson materials in English, Spanish, Hmong, Somali, and Braille.New video broadcasting equipment. It will provide quality broadcasts for many years.A portion of an educator wages and benefits. The educator has a master's degree and many years of wolf exposure and training.The creation, printing and mailing of promotional materials and some promotional travel expenses.The original goal was to offer 100 WolfLink programs reaching 2,500 students and teachers along with the wolf loan boxes to educate, engage, and promote future stewardship of the state's environmental resources. To provide translation for three languages and braille to the classroom educational materials. Also, to provide improved broadcasting technology by acquiring new technology. International Wolf Center was able to reach 118 schools and 3,804 students, exceeding the original goal by 18 schools and 1,304 students. The 2 additional loan boxes were added and much needed due to the frequency of programs. One Minnesota school was able to be included in a broadcast with schools from Canada and Mexico, making their wolf education also a multi-cultural event with the ability to interact with these foreign students. The lesson materials are translated and opened the education to children where English is their second language. There were several schools that were not aware they possessed the necessary technology to receive the live interactive broadcasts. After the wolf broadcasts those schools were open to Internet broadcast learning opportunities. Minnesota tourism increased somewhat as many children brought home their souvenirs and other lesson materials from the wolf loan boxes and requested their family make a trip to Ely, where many families visited the International Wolf Center and viewed in person the same live wolves seen in their WolfLink program. The advanced technology made available by this grant will continue to serve well for many years. The question may be asked why this education is important and even relevant today. It is best answered by the enthusiasm displayed by the children's faces when the wolves howled or showed other wolf behavior. They learned all about wolves based on scientific based research. They were able to figuratively leave their school, via the internet broadcast, to experience the great outdoors of Minnesota, all the while learning about taking care of Minnesota's natural resources. By involving children in this educational process it is preparing our next generation to be stewards of Minnesota resources. The facts are taught in the hopes that a better informed public can be involved in making better informed public policy relative to wolves and other Minnesota natural resources. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The WolfLink programs reaching out to 118 schools has been spread by word of mouth. The original plan of having 100 interactive broadcasts was an aggressive goal at the time of grant application. Having exceeded it has shown how successful the new technology presents the materials. When a teacher in a school completed a program, they naturally shared their enthusiasm with their fellow teachers. This led to other teachers within the same school to request programs for their classroom. Part of the marketing plan included printing of postcards which were done for less money than originally planned. The Internet and emails, which were not funded by this grant, were also used effectively to market the WolfLink programs to Minnesota schools. In all the communications credit was given to the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund for making these free programs possible.

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).

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 understanding of constitutional government under the rule of law. "," In regard to the first project, Respectful Conversation in Schools, research has long indicated that discussion is an under-utilized teaching method in P-12 education, especially in high-minority, low-income schools. Yet studies indicate that discussion, particularly in a classroom climate conducive to students sharing their ideas, is associated with positive outcomes, such as skills in perspective taking, communication, group membership, and conflict resolution; and sense of political efficacy and expected electoral participation. It is our hope that training teachers in the RCS protocol provides them with an effective discussion tool that allows students to achieve the positive outcomes listed In regard to the second project, the civic education assessment, we hope to aid in the evaluation of civic education curriculum and extracurricular activities so that schools can develop steps to take to improve the civic education of their students. ","For RCS, our presentation at the MN Council for the Social Studies conference open a new door. Going in, our goal was to recruit a new cohort of teachers to train in the RCS protocol. After, only two teachers came forward with a request for additional support -- BUT they asked if we would train all 280 of their eighth grade students in the protocol. In the past, we had trained 5-6 students in each class as table facilitators. These two teachers made the case that every student deserved a leadership training opportunity. Upon further reflection, we agreed! To help determine long-term value of this approach, we decided to develop a pre- and post-survey to evaluate student learning. The teachers agreed to teach a ""pre-lesson"" about Respectful Conversations and then on a day in late March, a colleague and I spent one whole day -- leading each class for two teachers -- training 280 eighth graders at HighView Middle School in Mounds View. I will include the preand post surveys as attachments. Unfortunately, the two teachers were supposed to send me the results before the end of the school year and that didn't happen. Also, based on feedback from the previous pilots and from teachers attending the workshop in March, we created two training videos -- one for teachers which showed an actual Respectful Conversation in a classroom and one for students illustrating a key component of the protocol. The significant outcome of the second project -- the civic survey -- was detailed responses by 1 school district administrator, 2 district curriculum coordinators and 83 teachers (only 60 completed the full survey) about when and how civics courses are taught in highs school in their district, how they prepare for, administer and record the required MN Civics Test, as well as additional best practice civic opportunities they provide for their students.

A list of proposed permanent conservation easements must be provided as part of the final report. The accomplishment plan must include an easement stewardship plan. Up to $90,000 is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17.

This program enrolled a total of 1,336.7 acres of enhanced wildlife and water quality buffers in partnership with private landowners on 29 easements. With 1337 acres (all sources of funding) protected and restored in this phase, we exceeded the original goal of 400 acres of OHF funded buffers and 400 acres of CWF funded buffers. Bonding dollars were used to fund the remaining 537 acres. ",,"  The Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council provided a recommendation to fund the first phase of RIM Buffers, which provided $2,249,000 and played a part in securing 1,595.4 acres of permanent protection. This second phase of RIM Buffers built upon the successes and momentum of that first phase, securing 1,336.7 acres of permanently established buffers that will continue to provide critical water quality improvements and improved nesting habitat.  This partnership program permanently added grassland habitat and reduced fragmentation by combining the efforts of the Outdoor Heritage Fund, Clean Water Fund, and bonding to secure buffers adjacent to public waters. Building upon the 100-foot RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund, we added an additional buffer width (up to NRCS 393 standard for CRP buffers) to make clean water buffers more attractive and productive for wildlife. This program contributed toward the development of new habitat complexes and enhancement of existing habitats by expanding the size of narrow corridors and connecting them to large, permanently protected grasslands, wetlands, and shallow lakes. Furthermore, these wildlife buffers were targeted for landscapes with existing permanently protected habitat to accelerate progress toward achieving minimum thresholds of grass habitat required by waterfowl and other Species of Greatest Conservation Need. Many Species of Greatest Conservation Need benefit from large habitat patches and some require a minimum threshold of grassland habitat within a landscape.  Buffers are commonly viewed as simply a water quality practice, but buffers have notable positive impacts on wildlife due their unique upland and riverine habitat interaction. Not only are upland grasslands protected or restored, but detrimental impacts to stream-reliant biota is reduced. Many species of amphibians, such as southern MN's Northern Cricket Frog (endangered) rely on aquatic habitat during the breeding season and then spend most of their lives in upland habitat. In Southeastern MN, reptiles such as the Blanding's Turtle (endangered) rely on meandering streams, rivers, and adjacent lands.  A scoring mechanism was employed to fund high quality wildlife buffer enhancements and target these funds. Buffers for wildlife under this program were prioritized based upon their ability to enhance public land habitats (e.g., WPA’s or WMA’s), protect expiring CRP lands, add key nesting cover to wetland/upland complexes, provide maximum water quality benefits, and enhance shallow lakes.  At the time this appropriation became available, Minnesota had just over 200,000 acres of Conservation Reserve Program in buffer practices at various stages of their 10-15 year contracts, some soon to expire. The RIM Buffer program served as a complement to other programs to secure some of those expiring acres.     ",2012-07-01,2014-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tabor,Hoek,BWSR,"1400 Lyon Street, PO Box 267",Marshall,MN,56258,"(507) 537-6368",tabor.hoek@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Statewide,"Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/minnesota-buffers-wildlife-and-water-phase-2,,,,

January 2012: SWCDs requested local project areas, which determined where eligible projects could occur. February-March 2012: First landowner signup period was held. SWCDs marketed the program to landowners, completed an initial review of eligibility and scoring, and submitted applications to BWSR for funding consideration. Subsequent signups were announced and held to fund additional easements, which followed a similar process of screening committee review and allocation of funding to funded applications. Summer 2012: BWSR completed first funding allocations to applications. Applications first underwent an eligiblity review and confirmation that sites met appropriation guidelines. Applications were funded if they met the minimum wildlife benefits score. Those that did not meet this minimum score were not eligible and were either directed to secure a standalone CWF buffer, or to enroll in a different program. A total of 46 easements were funded and acquired. 2014: Last easements acquired with these funds were recorded. 2014-Onward: Restorations occurred.

At the time this program was implemented, Minnesota had just over 200,000 acres of CRP in buffer practices at various stages of their 10-15 year contracts, some soon to expire. The RIM Buffer program served as a complement to other programs to secure these expiring acres.

The effort identifies significant natural areas and collects and interprets data on the status, distribution, and ecology of plants, animals, and native plant communities throughout the state. Through July 2011, surveys have been completed in 81 of Minnesota's 87 counties and have added nearly 17,000 new records of rare features to the DNR's information systems. MCBS data is used by all levels of government in natural resource planning and use decisions, including prioritization of protection of park lands and scientific and natural areas. This appropriation will permit continuation of the survey in Lake, St. Louis, Clearwater, and Beltrami counties and begin initial surveying in Koochiching and Lake of the Woods counties. Additionally one book will be published: a natural history guidebook of the Aspen Parkland-Red River Valley region of MN. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The need to protect and manage functional ecological systems, including ecological processes and component organisms continues to accelerate with increased demands for water and energy, continued habitat fragmentation, loss of species and genetic diversity, invasive species expansion, and changing environmental conditions. Since 1987 the Minnesota County Biological Survey (MCBS) has systematically collected, interpreted and delivered baseline data on the distribution and ecology of plants, animals, native plant communities, and functional landscapes. These data help prioritize actions to conserve and manage Minnesota's ecological systems and critical components of biological diversity. During this project period baseline surveys continued, focused largely in northern Minnesota (see map). One highlight was data collection in remote areas of the patterned peatlands that included three helicopter-assisted field surveys coordinated with other researchers to increase the knowledge of this ecological system and to continue long-term collaborative monitoring. Another goal was to begin monitoring to measure the effectiveness of management and policy activities. For example, prairie vegetation and small white lady's slipper monitoring began in western Minnesota sites in response to ecological measures identified in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan 2010. MCBS also provided data and interpretation related to the DNR's forest certification goals and began monitoring activities in selected sites in the Aspen Parkland and in southeastern Minnesota. Since July 2011 new records of 929 rare features were added to the Rare Features Database. Since 1987, MCBS has added a total of 20,018 new rare feature records. Statewide 10,192 MCBS sites of Biodiversity Significance and 63,232 polygons of native plant communities are now publically available on the DNR's Data Deli. Since 1987, MCBS has contributed 4,972 of the 9,467 Minnesota vegetation plot records in the DNR's Releve (vegetation plot) Database. Since 1987 botanists documented 1,194 rare aquatic plants during targeted aquatic plant surveys of 1,872 lakes. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION< Results and interpretation of data included web-delivery, technical assistance and publications that are identified in more detail in the final report. For example, in 2013 MCBS reports of vegetation observed in 1836 lakes were added as a link in the Lakefinder application Native Orchids of Minnesota was published that included substantial new distributional information from survey botanists.

10031110,"Minnesota African Action Coalition: Arts-based Community Engagement, Leadership & Network Building",2022,90000,"MN Laws 2021, First Special Session Chapter 1, Article 4, Section 2, Subdivision 8 (d)","2022-2023 Cultural Heritage and Community Identity Grants - Winter 2021","Through community conversations and networking, the activities involved in our proposed art and the culture-infused coalition-building process will achieve several interrelated and mutually-reinforcing outcomes for African Minnesotans and the broader Minnesota community. AEDS' mission is to economically empower African Minnesotans. We are the only African-led organization that intentionally uses African art and cultural assets to drive local economic development, support African entrepreneurs, and build family and community wealth. AEDS will commission African immigrant artists as partners in all project activities, helping to boost their income and sustain them in their practices as cultural creators and evolvers. One artist will kick off each community conversation and networking event with a performance; 3 - 5 artists will present work at each annual leadership conference. AEDS' network of artists includes Ethiopian vocalist Genet Abate, the Somali Museum Dance Troupe, the Ethiopian Eritrean Students Association, and Afrocontigbo, an African-women dance group that draws audiences to join energetic, spirit-lifting dances. The project will also provide platforms to lift and promote African food, jewelry, apparel, and other cultural vendors and small businesses to grow their base of customers and income. The project creates venues and economic opportunities for African immigrant artists to share and showcase their talents, thus supporting the development of diverse humanities programming by individual Minnesotans of African heritage. Community conversations and leadership conferences will support African Minnesotan professionals representing a range of sectors and organizations, with honorariums. Their commissioned participation in these activities acknowledges the value of their expertise, lived experiences, and skills; raise their visibility to a broader professional network; and uplifts their confidence to challenge negative narratives about our cultures and communities. AEDS will work with African and other ethnic-led media organizations such as Oromia 11, Mshale, and the Sahan Journal to promote the events and participating artists and speakers to millions of statewide, national, and global audiences. By providing African immigrant artists, vendors, professionals, and leaders with financial resources and significant media exposure, the project will better preserve and honor African cultural heritage and identity in Minnesota. Proposed activities will also increase the depth and breadth of Minnesotans who will connect with our state's African arts, culture, and heritage and provide education on African cultural identity. The project will unite Minnesotans representing Minnesota's growing and increasingly diverse African diaspora to experience and learn about each other's art, culture, histories, and heritage in more significant ways. In addition to being audiences of diverse African cultural performances and other art forms, integrated into project activities, African Minnesotans will engage in thoughtful and evocative dialogue to broaden and deepen their understanding of each other's heritage, cultural identity, and experiences. Through these discussions, they will build relationships, find commonalities, and be empowered to co-create a shared cultural identity inclusive of their various experiences as African Minnesotans and to take action through the emerging coalition.","In 2022, AEDS made significant progress in supporting the development of diverse humanities programming by individual Minnesotans of African heritage to preserve and honor African cultural heritage and identity in our state. We planned, produced, and offered three online forums, the festival, and parade, and the 3rd annual leadership conference to lift and provide education about dynamic and intersecting African cultural identities, increasing the depth and breadth of Minnesotans to connect with the state's ever-diversifying and evolving African art, culture, and heritage African heritage artists and cultural practitioners were commissioned to share their talents at these events, earning income and growing their audiences while raising awareness of African contributions to MN's art, culture, and economic landscape. Community Conversations and Listening Forums April 6, 2022: Cultural Asset Tools for African Business Development This first forum started with a poem by MN-based, Sagirah Shahid, a Black American African Poet. AEDS' Director of Small Business Development, Homeownership, and Workforce Programs, Idris Mohammed, was joined by three other African immigrant panelists from across the US to share their insights and expertise about innovative art and culture-based strategies deployed by African immigrant entrepreneurs to start and grow microenterprises and small businesses. Moderated by Nigerian-born dance artist, Korma Aguh-Stuckmayer, of AfroContigbo, the event highlighted the resources available for artists and entrepreneurs to build a successful business with African cultural asset tools. June 29, 2022: A Lived Experience of African Artists and Cultural Creators in Preserving, Honoring, and Transforming African Cultural Heritage and Identity MN-based journalist, Artist/Poet, and Diaspora Engagement Artist, Lolla Mohammed Nur, facilitated a panel of four African immigrant artists, cultural creators, and nonprofit leaders. Nimo Farah, Bush Fellow and co-founder of Somali Arts Language and Leadership Institute, was among the panelists who explored how she and others on the panel use their creative vision and skills to preserve, honor, and transform African cultural heritage and identity across Minnesota and the US> September 28, 2022: African Cultural Health and Wellness Virtual Forum The last community conversation of 2022 featured two St Paul-based African immigrant healthcare professionals, Dr. Florence Njoyi DBH, LICSW, MSW, and Dr. Richard B. Oni, and Dr. Milkeeso H. Foge, a healthcare professional from Minneapolis. The session, moderated by Dr. Gemechu A. Kurfessa, examined how Africans use their diverse cultural traditions and practices to support health and wellness, and navigate the impacts of the pandemic on the medical, mental, and socio-emotional health and well-being of African immigrants, refugees, and second-generation youth. Little Africa Festival and Parade: August 7, 2022 This year's event featured about 19 visual and performing artists, an African designer fashion show, and nearly 60, mainly African Minnesotan, vendors selling food, beverages, apparel, jewelry, books, and professional services. The event included an all-nations parade that all audience members were invited to join. National Leadership Conference: December 8 & 9, 2022 The 2023 event, produced as a hybrid live and online event, was an incredible success with keynote speakers, PLO Lumumba, direct from Kenya, and dynamic author and inspirational speaker, Dr. Verna Price. Plenary panels and break-out sessions focused on creative placemaking, art-based healing and cultural identity, and African women and youth leadership. The event featured art and cultural performances from African artists that included singers, Addisu Fergassa and Genet Abate, and performances by West African dancers with Afrocontigbo and the Somali Museum Dance Group. MAAC Coalition Building Activities: Ongoing 2022 forums and the year-end 3rd annual Conference facilitated ongoing cross-ethnic coalition-building activities among African leaders across MN and connected them with African leaders across the country. A five-member national coalition board comprised of AEDS' President and CEO, Dr. Gene Gelgelu, as the coalition Chair and Grace Mbosi-Enwesi, President of the MN Institute for Nigerian Development (MIND MN), serving as the Vice Chair, has formed. The board joins four African immigrant and refugee leaders who include Twin Cities-based leaders, Mr. Mohamed Ahmed, Founder and CEO of the MN-based, Kayed Foundation, and Mr. Jude Nnadi, Founder and CEO of the MN African Coalition. AEDS is currently seeking funding to subcontract Bo Thao, Co-Founder of the Coalition of Asian American Leaders (CAAL), to facilitate the coalition planning and building process. ; During the final reporting period of 2023, AEDS leveraged our remaining MHC grant funds to organize and produce a series of community conversations and engagement activities with ethnically diverse African Minnesotans - immigrants, refugees, and US-born and raised young adults and youth. These activities fostered and facilitated dialogue about issues of most concern for participants, their families, and the broader African Minnesotan communities they represent while helping to develop their leadership, networking, public speaking, and cross-culture and cross-sector communication skills. Community Conversation 2023 Virtual Forums Building on the success of the 2022 Annual National Leadership Conference, we partnered with African Minnesotan leaders representing various sectors to host three forums in 2023 year-to-date. Moderators and panelists were paid honorariums to share their subject matter expertise and facilitate and engage in meaningful and rich discussions.February 22, 2023: Weaving Connections, Building Community, and Celebrating DiversityThis forum celebrating Black History Month featured an all-African immigrant and refugee woman panel of presenters, including Dr. Artika R. Tyner, a Minnesota-based Motivational and Social Change Speaker. The session opened with poetry from Twin Cities artist Sagirah Shahid to spur dialogue around Black History, cross-cultural relationship building between African immigrants and African Americans and harnessing cultural assets to start, grow, and build thriving businesses and create wealth-building pathways. Approximately 74 individual leaders, mainly Minnesota-based African immigrants and refugees, registered, with about 50 participating in the virtual forum. April 5, 2023: Culturally-specific Business Development Strategies for African Immigrant CommunitiesModerated by Jamie (Schumacher) Kalakaru-Mava, Minneapolis-based artist and author, this session featured a panel of African immigrant cultural business development professionals, including AEDS' Director of Small Business Development and Homeownership Programs, Idris Mohammed. The session explored strategies employed by African immigrants and refugees to translate their cultural assets, such as food, apparel, designs, jewelry, stories, and healing practices, to start and operate businesses that preserve and reinforce African cultural identity and meet the needs of African Minnesotans for cultural goods and culturally-grounded professional and other businesses services delivered in their languages by entrepreneurs from their communities. These businesses also help immigrants and refugees transition to life in Minnesota and the U.S., making the neighborhoods where they live and work more welcoming. On average, the first two forums drew an average of 90 participants, were viewed on AEDS' social media over 500 times, and reached over 1,000 individuals statewide and nationally. September 20, 2023: African Cultural Healing Practices and Lessons to Be LearnedHanna Getachew Kreusser, Executive Director of Face to Face, moderated the session focused on traditional African cultural health practices and how these practices are being integrated into medical and mental health services for African Minnesotans. Over 40 individuals participated in the forum, which reached 220 people as a live broadcast forum. Over 100 Minnesotans participated in the forum, mainly African immigrants and refugees. The event was well received, with Africans viewing the discussion from the US, the UK, Europe, several African nations, the Middle East, and India. 2023 Little Africa Creative Placemaking AEDS partnered with the Minnesota Humanities Center to offer a Little Africa Business and Cultural District tour on July 27 from 11 am to 1 p.m. MHC and AEDS staff were joined by 40 Minnesotans, mainly non-Africans, on the tour, which included snacks and beverages at the Snelling Caf', where participants were introduced to the district as AEDS' creative placemaking initiative. The tour proceeded with a visit to several African cultural-themed exterior murals on district businesses. The tour participants split into groups to visit Ethiopian and Ghanaian-owned hair braiding and beauty salons, Ethiopian and Somali markets, and a traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony at Sabrina Caf'. AEDS staff shared information about the businesses and the ceremony and its cultural and business significance. The tour group returned to Snelling Caf' where they enjoyed traditional Ethiopian food for lunch, viewed a documentary about the district, and shared feedback about their experiences. The 2023 Little Africa Festival and Parade were tremendously successful, with an intergenerational, cross-ethnic audience of nearly 10,000 Minnesotans experiencing African art, food, and cultural products from over 100 performing artists and 65 vendors. At the end of 2020, we purchased a building on Snelling Avenue to anchor our Little African creative placemaking efforts amongst Midway-Hamline's African immigrant residents and entrepreneurs, with the goals of redeveloping this building into the Little Africa Plaza with an African halal grocery store, spaces for cultural businesses, and the Little Africa Museum and Gallery. To date, we have secured capital grants to support its redevelopment and transformation. We anticipate completing work and opening the space to the public in April 2024. As the space is being redeveloped, we will engage African Minnesotans and others in planning, designing, and developing a Little Africa Museum and Gallery as a new art and cultural institution and destination to center our creative placemaking work in the district.

This analysis can be repeated on a defined frequency to assess progress toward narrowing the difference between applied nutrients and crop nutrient needs across the State. The work conducted will provide an improved nutrient budget assessment, maps to use when looking at nutrient balance results in watersheds around the state, and a framework from which future nutrient budget assessments can become more accurate. The spatial framework will provide a platform for integration with other data layers, water quality monitoring, and nutrients models. The analysis can be used as one measure of gauging room for improvement with fertilizer and manure management across the state. The results can be used to improve watershed models and best management practice (BMP) estimation tools, which can then be used for improved conservation practice and nutrient management analysis. Additionally, the results can help inform where to prioritize watershed monitoring, conservation funding, landowner outreach, feedlot inspections, and BMP implementation. The nutrient balance spatial framework can also be used to determine where more study is needed when considering adding large numbers of livestock.

OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS A metagenomics-based sequencing approach was utilized to characterize the bacterial community at sites along the Mississippi River in Minnesota to understand how these communities were influenced by or indicative of water quality. Results of this study revealed that the bacterial community throughout the river primarily consisted of a small number of highly abundant species that comprise a ""core microbial community"" that was stable both in terms of community membership and inferred functional traits. Variation in community membership and species abundances were primarily influenced by physicochemical parameters (e.g. pH and temperature) rather than spatial distance, and a reproducible community structure occurred annually toward the late summer. Furthermore, specific bacterial orders were related to chemical concentrations that co-varied with surrounding land use, suggesting that increases in abundance of these orders may be indicative of specific types of contamination throughout the river. Therefore, assessment of the total bacterial community provides more information about water quality and contamination sources than could be previously gleaned from traditional enumeration of indicator bacteria like Escherichia coli. In addition to these findings, construction of fosmid libraries to assess resistance of the bacterial community to antibiotics and heavy metals revealed that levels of resistance to both were low throughout the river. Municipal wastewater treatment was not associated with increased antibiotic resistance, but proximity to agricultural wastewater increased the frequency of resistance to the antibiotics kanamycin and ampicillin. Furthermore, the resistances to the heavy metals Cd and Cr were significantly elevated in primarily developed (urban) areas.

This appropriation is available until June 30, 2013, by which time the project must be completed and final products delivered.","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".","Click on ""Final Report"" under ""Project Details"".",,,,,,,,"U of MN","Public College/University","PROJECT OVERVIEW A class of insecticides known as systemic neonicotinyl insecticides have been identified as a potential factor in recently observed declines in pollinators - the beneficial insects that carry pollen from plant to plant - including the phenomenon amongst honeybees known as Colony Collapse Disorder. But only preliminary investigation into this potential link has been completed to date. This appropriation is enabling the University of Minnesota's Department of Entomology to conduct additional research needed to determine what impacts systemic neonicotinyl insecticides may be having on the health, behavior, and mortality of honeybees and other pollinators. Findings could be used to help mitigate pollinator decline and identify alternative approaches for managing pest insects. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The commonly used systemic neonicotinyl class of insecticides (imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, clothianidin, and dinotefuran) is implicated in bee decline since insecticide residues accumulate in pollen and nectar. These residues can kill foraging bees and decrease pollination, seeds, and fruits of native plants and crops. Neonicotinyls are applied in numerous methods (seeds, soil drenches, and tree trunk injections). Of the 442 million acres of U.S. cropland, 143 acres are treated with over 2 million pounds of neonicotinyl insecticides. In Minnesota in 2009, 46,766 pounds of imidacloprid and 19,347 pounds of clothianidin were applied. These research objectives were to understand the effects of imidacloprid residues on bee health. This research found that a standard, label rate of imidacloprid applied to soil of potted plants produced imidacloprid residues of 1973 ppb in mint and 1568 ppb in milkweed flowers. A residue in flowers of 185 ppb imidacloprid kills a bee. Research on greenhouse colonies of bumblebees showed that 20-100 ppb imidacloprid or clothianidin provided in sugar syrup for 11 weeks increased queen mortality and decreased consumption, sugar syrup storage, colony weight, and male production. Consequently, 20 ppb had detrimental effects on bumblebees and will reduce pollination of native plants. Research on field colonies of honey bees showed that only 33% of the imidacloprid was stored in colony cells. At 200 ppb there was less brood, fewer returning foragers, and higher amounts of distorted wing virus, which can cause colony death. This research demonstrated that applications of imidacloprid and clothianidin insecticides to soil result in high residues in nectar and pollen that will kill bees. Studies on bees showed how colonies died from these insecticides. An 11 part website for outreach education in Minnesota on pollinator conservation was developed. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The purpose of the research was to supply data to protect pollinators to ensure future seeds and fruits for wildlife and people. These research data are very important to groups trying to understand the impact of systemic, neonicotinyl insecticides on bee colonies and individual foragers. These data are used by bee keepers, advocacy groups, state agencies, and the US EPA for discussion on whether neonicotinyl insecticides are affecting bee health and whether their use needs to be restricted. In June 2013 The European Union's Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has restricted the use of neonicotinyl insecticides for 2 years on all flowering plants that bees utilize. The reports and discussion are on the LCCMR sponsored ""Pollinator Conservation"" website. This is a remarkable proactive decision to ensure the safety of pollinators. An 11 part website on bee pollinator conservation was developed for outreach education in Minnesota. The website contains research results, manuscripts, workshop, bulletin on insecticides and bees, bulletin on pollinator conservation, and poster on bee plants. We will produce 4 manuscripts from these data and 3 are already in final form and available on the website. These research data have been requested by groups that need to understand more about the risk of neonicotinyl insecticides to bees: US EPA, Center for Food Safety, PANNA (Pesticide Action Network), Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation, Washington State Department of Agriculture, Pesticide Research Institute, MN Honey Producers, Boulder County Bee Keepers, and Colorado State Beekeepers. The lab was interviewed by TV and radio many times: MN Public Radio (3), Harvest Public Media, Iowa Public Radio, WCCO, Kare 11 News, KSTP, Pioneer Press, Star Tribune, and the Minnesota State Fair.

Additionally the specific causes of increased mortality amongst individual moose remain under investigation. Scientists at the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources are using this appropriation to help understand how air temperature affects moose habitat use and behavior, reproductive success, and survival in order to determine if, when, and how moose are able to successfully modulate internal body temperature.

At the time of our proposal, this project was conceived as a celebration of Tamil (Southeastern Indian) culture an aspect of Indian culture not often featured in the U.S. Through dance, dialogue, film, and food. Our intent was to connect past and present and explore how immigrants can draw on our cultural archetypes to inform a better, more just, and more inclusive future. For the past several months we have been planning and shaping the project and expanding it into a six-month series which will include virtual and in-person events throughout the spring. The festival will include: * A film screening of Sthree :Ragamala's contemporary interpretation of Silappathikaram. Sthree's roots are in classical Tamil literature, yet its themes of duty and fate, justice and retribution, power and transcendence illuminate our present moment. Through evocative Bharatanatyam (South Indian classical dance) choreography and English narration, Sthree makes the epic accessible to a wide audience. * Free, Participatory Experiences for the Community: * Ragamala Company members will lead free classes at various locations in St. Paul. We are currently in conversation with the Children's Museum and St. Paul Conservatory of Performing Arts. The classes offer students an introduction to Ragamala's signature style of Bharatanatyam and the opportunity to learn more about the mythologies and epic narratives that inspire Ranee, Aparna, and Ashwini Ramaswamy's choreographic works. * Sacred Geography Hands-on Activity: Sacred Geography is rooted in the South Indian folk visual art form of kolam. Each morning before dawn, women in southeastern India undertake the silent ritual of kolam, making rice flour designs on the ground as mindful offerings to Mother Earth. This daily ritual creates a sacred space and becomes a link between the intimate home and the vastness of the outside world. We are coordinating with partners from different faith organizations in order to share this programming with a wide array of people, and communities new to Ragamala's work. * Moderated Talks, Panel Discussions, and PresentationsA series of in-person and virtual events that incorporate the perspectives of multiple Humanities disciplines including History, Religion, Anthropology, Art History, and Literature. * Bringing Stories to Life through Different Media : This conversation between Ashwini Ramaswamy (Ragamala Dance Company) and Kate Nordstrum (Great Northern Festival) will be held virtually in February 2023. * Author Talk with Keerthik Sasidharan: This virtual event planned for April will give attendees the chance to learn about Sasidharan's approach to writing and his book Dharma Forest. * Alarmel Valli Talk: This event will celebrate Legendary Bharatanatyam dancer Alarm'l Valli 's decades-long relationship with the Twin Cities South Indian community. The talk will be presented virtually in May. * Performance: Students from the Ragamala Training Center will present a public showcase at The Landmark Center Auditorium on June 4th, showcasing the next generation's immersion in the cultures and traditions of our South Indian heritage.; SUMMARYRagamala Dance Company received support from the Minnesota Humanities Center to develop and present Mythology Makes Us: The Kannagi Festival. At the time of our proposal, this project was conceived as a 2-day celebration of Tamil (Southeastern Indian) culture - an aspect of Indian culture not often featured in the U.S. through dance, dialogue, film, and food. Our intention was to connect past and present and explore how immigrants can draw on our cultural archetypes to inform a better, more just, and more inclusive future. As the project was formally designed and implemented, we ultimately expanded it into a multi-week series entitled Mythology Makes Us, that included virtual and in-person events at multiple partner sites. As noted in our interim report, we adjusted the project dates and expanded it into a six-month series stretching throughout the spring. We expanded the project, incorporating diverse immigrant narratives and broadening the scope of our partnerships. However, our core intention was preserved throughout the process. We were able to secure excellent partners and locations for activities, and the resulting events were a resounding success. WORK ACCOMPLISHED Mythology Makes Us was a celebration of Tamil (SE Indian) culture - an aspect of Indian culture not often featured in the U.S. Through dance, dialogue, and food, we connected past and present, and explored how immigrants can draw on our cultural archetypes to inform a better, more just, and more inclusive future. As South Indian-American artists, the Tamil epic Silappathikaram is infused into our marrow. With this project, we illuminated our cultural narratives for diverse audiences - both as a window into Tamil culture and as a launching point for intercultural conversations, honoring the epics of our ancestors, their ongoing relevance in today's world, and what they tell us about ourselves in the present moment. Held over several weeks between February and June 2023, activities included: Presentations and artist talks featuring Ragamala's Ranee, Aparna, and Ashwini Ramaswamy alongside iconic Bharatanatyam dancer/choreographer Alarmel Valli (of Chennai, India); second-generation immigrant American dancers/choreographers of various backgrounds including Phil Chan, Alanna Morris, MN JoeTran, and Berit Ahlgren; author Will McGrath; and Syrian-American visual artist Kevork Mourad, co-presented by The Coven, Northrop, Green Card Voices, Magers and Quinn bookstore, Natyakala, and others (both in person and virtually on Zoom) Presentations and hands-on workshops in Bharatanatyam and the Tamil folk visual art form of kolam at the Flint Hills Family Festival, Somali Museum of MN, St. Paul Conservatory for Performing Arts, MN Children's Museum, MSS (serving people with disabilities), libraries, Stafford Library, and others, exploring how our culturally rooted art forms and traditions, handed down across generations, inform our contemporary lives A culminating performance featuring the next generation of Ragamala, followed by a community meal at Landmark Center in St. Paul GOALS ACHIEVED This project furthered Ragamala's mission to use our art to: Foster listening, understanding, and empathy through shared cultural narratives Inspire new ways of thinking about ourselves, our community, and our place within it Amplify unheard voices & shape new paradigms of how we see one another To measure our goals and outcomes, feedback was collected via e-surveys, livestream chats, dialogue with attendees, and email/social media response. Diversity was assessed via conversation and observation. Data was evaluated by Ragamala staff/board. Using these practices, we are proud to say that we met or exceeded all our major goals for this project, as follows: Quantitative Outcomes (recorded based on guest counts and survey data collected in partnership with presenting venues): 14 days of activities over the course of six months, offered in-person and via Zoom 14 artists (dancers, choreographers, visual artists, authors, and speakers) performing and presenting live 16 partner organizations and venues hosting elements of the Festival and/or promoting it to new constituencies 2,077 in-person attendees 30 virtual attendees via Zoom Meeting or exceeding 100% of our diversity targets on metrics of race, ethnicity, faith, neighborhood, age, and gender Qualitative Outcomes (measured through written comments by attendees and post-event dialogue, collected during & after events and reviewed by our staff): At least 60% of attendees experienced underrepresented aspects of Indian culture - specifically, the Tamil traditions surrounding the Kannagi Festival At least 60% of attendees learned about art forms, epic narratives, traditions, histories and perspectives with which they were previously unfamiliar At least 60% of attendees felt empowered to embrace, define and share their own multi-hyphenate, intersectional identities At least 60% of attendees were motivated to understand, feel empathy for, and think expansively about their neighbors At least 60% of attendees gained a deeper understanding of the ways in which the performing arts in India are multidisciplinary and intersect with multiple Humanities disciplines At least 60% of attendees thought expansively about how immigrants can bring distinct histories, cultural archetypes, and perspectives to the work of cultural/societal transformation",,,"City of St. Paul Cultural STAR $25,000 F.R.

Thirty-three applicants applied and it became very apparent that there are many Native writers that have need for a program such as this. We juried the applicants and narrowed down 12 writers: An Garagiola, Chloe Allyn, Deanna StandingCloud, Nicolas DeShaw, Kyle Hill, Melissa Olson, Emmy Her Many Horses, Gillian Joseph, Emily Poupart, Tara Widner, Tara Perron, and Sarah Wheelock were selected. The authors began meeting in September of 2022 and met monthly where they peer reviewed each other's work, provided feedback, developed relationships with each other, and learned from invited guests and speakers. Periodically throughout the duration of the program, Art Coulsen, program facilitator, invited mentor visitors who are established, published authors, agents, editors, and others relevant to the field to meet with the writers. Marcie Rendon, Cynthia Leitich Smith, David Treuer, Heid Erdrich, Jacqui Lipton, and Stephanie Strachan were invited mentors who took time out of their busy schedules to offer insights and wisdom to the writers. In June 2023, the Walker Art Center partnered with AMRA to host a reading of alumni writers and Art Coulsen to read excerpts of their work at the Walker's Green roof Poetry series. This event allowed AMRA to introduce the new cohort to the community. Following that event, AMRA planned an hosted 3 public reading events with 4 writers per event sharing excerpts of their work with the community. The first event was held at the Brichbark books new event space, Birchbark Bizhew in June, followed by 2 additional events held at All My Relations Arts gallery in August, and September of 2023. Native photographer Nedahness Greene, attended each public reading and was able to provide professional headshots of each writer to have access to use for business purposes. In January 2024, we hosted a meeting for feedback from the writers about their experience in the program. We learned the writers were reaffirmed that other Native writers experienced the same struggles and creative practices, they appreciated hearing feedback from the other writers, and the character development support they were provided. There was strong agreement with the appreciation of not having to explain culture related references with this group of Native specific writers. An initial change to the timeline was in regards to the facilitator. Initially we had planned on Diane Wilson again leading the facilitation and mentorship, however, since she had lost her husband, Jim Denomie, she pulled back from her commitments and we needed time to find a replacement. Art Coulsen was recommended and after meeting and discussing the program, he enthusiastically agreed to lead as the program facilitator. This set us back by about 3 months from when we had planned to launch the call for writers but once we had Art on board, the program ran smoothly. AMRA checked in often with Art on how he felt the program was operating and any support needs he had. The second delay we had was in thepublication of the anthology. The first Native Authors program was in partnership with the Hennepin County Library and so the library took on the responsibility of publication of the anthology so this cohort was the first time that AMRA lead the work and we should have begun planning the anthology in November to be completed in time for the grant schedule, however, we did not begin the planning of the anthology until the last month of programming. This allowed the writers focused time without distraction and once the program was completed, then we shifted to a capstone project of the anthology. The writers needed to submit works and Art agreed to lead the editorial review of the submissions. Overall, this program once again has shown the need for a native specific writers group where culture is known and understood and not needed to be explained.. We are excited to report that Nicolas DeShaw has been picked up by an agent and is on his way to having his work published. Emmy Her Many Horses and Chloe Allyn have completed works while in the program. The diversity in stories has been uplifting and rewarding to hear. The work that the writers have been developing have left us hungry for the finished, published work.",,,"We receive a general operating grant from the MN State Arts Board.

Today less than 1% of that native prairie remains, and about half of those remaining acres are in private landownership without any formal protection currently in place. Through this appropriation the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources will work with private landowners of high quality native prairie sites to protect remaining native prairie using a variety of tools. Approximately 200 acres are expected to be permanently protected through Native Prairie Bank conservation easements. A variety of restoration and enhancement activities will be implemented on a total of about 900 acres. Additionally, education and technical assistance will be provided to interested landowners to help them improve the management and stewardship of native prairie sites they own. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS A total of 183 acres of native prairie was enrolled in the Native Prairie Bank easement program and permanently protected. The newly acquired easements included 6 easements in the Counties of Redwood, Brown, Pope, Traverse, Swift, and Renville. In total, 22 baseline property reports were written, including 6 baselines for the newly acquired easements. In addition to baseline reports, 22 existing Native Prairie Bank easements were monitored and data entered into the DNR's Conservation Easement Monitoring database. SNA prairie specialists have completed 20 prescribed burns for 1,268 acres, 1 prairie reconstruction on 17 acres, and 61 invasive species control projects on 813 acres. 50 of these 82 projects involved Conservation Corps of Minnesota (CCM) crews. Boundary signing has been completed on the 6 NPB easements acquired with this appropriation. As part of the SNA Program's adaptive management efforts, management practices at 5 NPB sites were evaluated to determine if initial objectives were met. SNA staff participated in 6 different events aimed at getting prairie stewardship information to landowners. Both SNA field specialists and acquisition staff engaged 76 different priority prairie landowners to discuss prairie protection and management options for their property. Over 290 landowners who potentially meet eligibility for Prairie Tax Exemption received mailings with Prairie Tax Exemption application forms. These mailings resulted in the certification of 204 new applications and the enrollment or re-enrollment of 6,936 acres in Prairie Tax Exemption. With the assistance of professional consultants, 20 landowners have received comprehensive Prairie Stewardship plans. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION< As part of the landowner outreach efforts in project activities 1 and 3, the Native Prairie Bank brochure was updated and re-printed. The new Native Prairie Bank brochure is being made available at public events that target prairie landowners. Over 290 letters were mailed to native prairie landowners informing them of their potential eligibility to participate in the Prairie Tax Exemption Program. Local Technical Teams (LTT's) have been forming in southern and western MN in an effort to coordinate implementation of the MN Prairie Plan (include SWCD, NRCS, USFWS, TNC, BWSR). SNA Prairie Specialists have been working with these LTT's to ensure landowners approached directly by these LTT's are made aware of their prairie stewardship options available through the SNA Program. In total, SNA field specialists have proactively engaged 76 different priority prairie landowners to discuss prairie protection and management options for their property, as well as provide native prairie stewardship information at 6 public events.",,"FINAL REPORT",2011-07-01,2014-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Jason,Garms,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Rd, Box 25","St Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5130",jason.garms@state.mn.us,"Inventory, Land Acquisition, Monitoring, Planning, Restoration/Enhancement, Technical Assistance","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/native-prairie-stewardship-and-native-prairie-bank-acquisition,,,,

A variety of restoration and enhancement activities will be implemented on a total of about 900 acres. Additionally, education and technical assistance will be provided to interested landowners to help them improve the management and stewardship of native prairie sites they own. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS A total of 183 acres of native prairie was enrolled in the Native Prairie Bank easement program and permanently protected. The newly acquired easements included 6 easements in the Counties of Redwood, Brown, Pope, Traverse, Swift, and Renville. In total, 22 baseline property reports were written, including 6 baselines for the newly acquired easements. In addition to baseline reports, 22 existing Native Prairie Bank easements were monitored and data entered into the DNR's Conservation Easement Monitoring database. SNA prairie specialists have completed 20 prescribed burns for 1,268 acres, 1 prairie reconstruction on 17 acres, and 61 invasive species control projects on 813 acres. 50 of these 82 projects involved Conservation Corps of Minnesota (CCM) crews. Boundary signing has been completed on the 6 NPB easements acquired with this appropriation. As part of the SNA Program's adaptive management efforts, management practices at 5 NPB sites were evaluated to determine if initial objectives were met. SNA staff participated in 6 different events aimed at getting prairie stewardship information to landowners. Both SNA field specialists and acquisition staff engaged 76 different priority prairie landowners to discuss prairie protection and management options for their property. Over 290 landowners who potentially meet eligibility for Prairie Tax Exemption received mailings with Prairie Tax Exemption application forms. These mailings resulted in the certification of 204 new applications and the enrollment or re-enrollment of 6,936 acres in Prairie Tax Exemption. With the assistance of professional consultants, 20 landowners have received comprehensive Prairie Stewardship plans. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION< As part of the landowner outreach efforts in project activities 1 and 3, the Native Prairie Bank brochure was updated and re-printed. The new Native Prairie Bank brochure is being made available at public events that target prairie landowners. Over 290 letters were mailed to native prairie landowners informing them of their potential eligibility to participate in the Prairie Tax Exemption Program. Local Technical Teams (LTT's) have been forming in southern and western MN in an effort to coordinate implementation of the MN Prairie Plan (include SWCD, NRCS, USFWS, TNC, BWSR). SNA Prairie Specialists have been working with these LTT's to ensure landowners approached directly by these LTT's are made aware of their prairie stewardship options available through the SNA Program. In total, SNA field specialists have proactively engaged 76 different priority prairie landowners to discuss prairie protection and management options for their property, as well as provide native prairie stewardship information at 6 public events.",,"FINAL REPORT",2011-07-01,2014-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Jason,Garms,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Rd, Box 25","St Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5130",jason.garms@state.mn.us,"Inventory, Land Acquisition, Monitoring, Planning, Restoration/Enhancement, Technical Assistance","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/native-prairie-stewardship-and-native-prairie-bank-acquisition,,,,

And each represented a different aspect of PACER's founding, e.g. seven were parents of children with different disabilities and each told his/her personal story of challenges and joys in changing the educational system in MN. One, male Hispanic, told about working with Latino families over the years as this population has increased in MN. Another, an African American woman, told about raising a child with disabilities during the civil rights challenges of the 1960s, '70s and '80s. Another African American woman talked about working regionally and nationally, often being the only black woman among many white males in power positions.

Cable broadcasts and word of mouth publicity about the project have inspired the Northeast Library Friends group to plan a page celebrating Northeast writers, as a prelude to a larger documentation of Northeast artists. The initial gathering session for that project has been tentatively scheduled for Dec. 5, 2014. Because most of the interviews have not yet been uploaded to the project website, we do not yet have viewing and download data. However, based on the popularity of the Southwest Minnesota Food Stories page, we anticipate a significant response to these interviews in the near future. IAS hosted two public programs featuring discussions about interviews with two Twin Cities artists, exploring their creative process. These will serve as a model for 2014-15 programs featuring interviews from this collection. Peter Shea reports that people who were interviewed have recommended other plausible interview candidates, and those people will be interviewed in the course of regular Bat of Minerva production and added to the archive.

Grants shall not be made for activities required to fulfill the duties of owners of lands subject to conservation easements. Grants shall not be made from appropriations in this paragraph for projects that have a total project cost exceeding $475,000. $319,000 of this appropriation may be spent for personnel costs and other administrative costs. Grantees may acquire land or interests in land. Easements must be permanent. Land acquired in fee must be open to hunting and fishing during the open season unless otherwise provided by state law. The program shall require a match of at least ten percent from nonstate sources for grants of $100,000 or less and a match of at least 15 percent from nonstate sources for grants over $100,000. Up to one-third of the match may be in-kind resources. For grant applications of $25,000 or less, the commissioner shall provide a separate, simplified application process. The criteria for evaluating grant applications over $25,000 must include the amount of habitat restored, enhanced, or protected; local support; encouragement of a local conservation culture; urgency; capacity to achieve multiple benefits; habitat benefits provided; consistency with current conservation science; adjacency to protected lands; full funding of the project; supplementing existing funding; public access for hunting and fishing during the open season; sustainability; degree of collaboration; and use of native plant materials. All projects must conform to the Minnesota statewide conservation and preservation plan. Wildlife habitat projects must also conform to the Minnesota wildlife action plan. Subject to the evaluation criteria and requirements of this paragraph and Minnesota Statutes, the commissioner of natural resources shall give priority to organizations that have a history of receiving or charter to receive private contributions for local conservation or habitat projects when evaluating projects of equal value. If acquiring land or a conservation easement, priority shall be given to projects associated with existing wildlife management areas under Minnesota Statutes, section 86A.05, subdivision 8; scientific and natural areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 84.033 and 86A.05, subdivision 5; and aquatic management areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 86A.05, subdivision 14, and 97C.02. All restoration or enhancement projects must be on land permanently protected by a conservation easement or public ownership or in public waters as defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 103G.005, subdivision 15. Priority shall be given to restoration and enhancement projects on public lands. Subdivision 9 applies to grants awarded under this paragraph. This appropriation is available until June 30, 2015. No less than five percent of the amount of each grant must be held back from reimbursement until the grant recipient has completed a grant accomplishment report by the deadline and in the form prescribed by and satisfactory to the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council. The commissioner shall provide notice of the grant program in the 2011 game and fish law summaries that are prepared under Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.051, subdivision 2.",,"43,525 acres protected, restored or enhanced",,1689500,"Local match",4776300,12000,,2.5,"MN DNR","State Government","The Conservation Partners Legacy Grant Program is managed by the Department of Natural Resources to provide competitive matching grants to local, regional, state, and national non-profit organizations, including governments.",,"The Conservation Partners Legacy Grant Program (CPL) is managed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) to provide competitive matching grants of up to $400,000 to local, regional, state, and national non-profit organizations, including governments. Grant activities include the enhancement, restoration, or protection of forests, wetlands, prairies, and habitat for fish, game, or wildlife in Minnesota. A 10% match from non-state sources is required for all grants. Match may be cash or in-kind resources. All match must be identified at the time of application. CPL Program Staff developed a Request for Proposal and Program Manual that incorporated the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council’s (LSOHC) priorities, solicited applications and worked with applicants to submit scorable applications, oversee the grant selection process, prepare and execute grant documents, review expenditure documentation to ensure recipients are only reimbursed for allowable expenses, make reimbursement payments, monitor grant work, assist recipients with closing out their agreements, and prepare reports as required by the LSOHC. MS 97a.056 Subd. 3a directed the LSOHC to establish a conservation partners grant program to encourage and support local conservation efforts. Subsequent session law established additional guidelines and criteria for this program and authorized the DNR to administer it. Applicants describe the location of the work (county and ecological subsection), activity type, and habitat in their application. They also describe how their actions benefit habitat and fish, game and wildlife. For acquisition projects, applicants describe their parcel selection process. All projects address the priorities in the Minnesota Statewide Conservation and Preservation Plan, and Tomorrow's Habitat for the Wild and Rare. Funds for projects under this appropriation were available until June 30, 2015. In administering this program, the DNR complied with the Department of Administration- Office of Grants Management policies. Stakeholders were involved in this proposal as applicants or reviewers (if no conflict of interest exists). There was no known stakeholder opposition to this program. Grant Application Process A Request for Proposal (RFP) and Program Manual (PM) were posted on the CPL website in early August, 2011. These documents contained grant program information, application requirements and scoring criteria, grant reporting requirements, and state agency contacts. The RFP, PM, and all grant agreements incorporated appropriate principles and criteria from the LSOHC’s Call for Funding Requests – 2012 Appropriations and associated legislation. CPL Program Staff explored ways to reduce any real or perceived barriers in the application process. This included a survey(s) and/or discussion groups involving previous applicants and applicants to similar grant programs, and exploring the use of a pre-application system. The results were incorporated into the FY12 application process. Applications were submitted electronically using CPL’s Online Grant Application System (OLGA). All project sites were mapped using OLGA’s mapping tool. OLGA accepted applications beginning in August, 2011, until the deadline for the first round of grants in mid-September, 2011. The application system did not accept applications during the review process. Grants were selected for funding twice. Ungranted funds from the first cycle were available for use in a following cycle, or were distributed to current grantees to assist approved projects. DNR reserved the right to make additional awards under this announcement, consistent with DNR and Outdoor Heritage Fund policy and guidance, if additional funding became available, or if a grantee could not carry out their project as planned. Grant Selection Process CPL Grant Program Staff reviewed applications to make sure they were complete and met grant program requirements. Technical Review Committee(s), selected by the Commissioner of Natural Resources, reviewed and scored applications based on criteria established by the LSOHC, MN State Legislature, and DNR. These committees included representatives from DNR, BWSR, the University of MN, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, and other appropriate members from government, non-profit organizations, and private businesses. A final ranking committee made up of the Directors of the DNR Divisions of Fish and Wildlife, Ecological Resources/Waters, and Forestry considered TRC, Division and Regional DNR comments, and recommended projects and funding levels to the Commissioner of Natural Resources. The Commissioner made the final decision on the projects funded and funding levels. Projects could be fully or partially funded. Every effort was made to evenly distribute the selected grants by geographic location, activity, and funding level, with an objective of granting 50% of the funds to projects above $125,000, and 50% of the funds to projects below $125,000. CPL Grant Program staff worked with grantees to ensure financial reviews, grant agreements, and any other necessary paperwork was completed. Work did not begin until the grant was executed. Project Reviews and Reporting Project reviews were completed as required by Office of Grants Management Policy 08-10, Grant Monitoring. Grantees submitted 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 included an evaluation of these results. A final report was required by all grantees within 30 days after the project was complete. CPL Grant Program staff submitted accomplishment reports to the LSOHC as required. Accomplishment information was also posted on the CPL website. CPL Administration Budget Grant administration costs were billed using actual costs. These costs included salary and fringe for grants staff, direct support services, travel, supplies, and expense. An internal Service Level Agreement (SLA) was developed with DNR’s Management Information Systems to update and manage the online grant application system. DNR Land Acquisition Costs Grantees were required to budget for DNR Land Acquisition costs that were necessary to support the land acquisition process for parcels to be conveyed to the DNR. These costs were billed to the grantees on a professional services basis and were paid with either grant or match funds. DNR Technical Support The Division of Fish and Wildlife estimates it provided $70,000 of ongoing technical guidance from Division field staff. This technical guidance helped grantees meet requirements for working on state lands. Grantee Match Grantees were required to provide a 10% match from non-state sources.

","The measurable outcomes each of the core activities in our Amplifying Minnesota American Indian Voices in the Arts project are described below. “Reunion of the Buffalo Herd” CD Release Party Special Event. The key measurable outcomes for this activity will be the number of CDs sold, the total dollar value of CD sales, and the number of people who attend the event. Our original plan was to draw a live audience of 250 people and we have scheduled this event later in calendar year 2021 in the hope of being able to host this event live. However, we are also making plans to livestream the event if restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic are still in place. If the event is virtual, we anticipate that the audience could be far larger than our initial estimate of 250 people. Even if we host the event live, we may put some segments online, enabling us to reach a larger audience even for a live show. This staged release of our CD, using a live event as a promotional vehicle, is intended to become a model for future revenue-generating work, helping us create a reliable income stream for artistic investments.   Video Production of Tatanka. The key measurable outcomes for this activity will be the completed video of the production and our documented outreach to at least one government or community-based organization and at least one tribal entity by the end of the calendar year, with the intent of gaining a commitment from the organization to present our production to an identified audience for educational purposes in 2022 and beyond. In addition, once the video is completed, we will upload a link to our Oyate Hotanin YouTube channel and make the video available to our community network through Facebook and an “Opening Night” online event, track the number of people who access the video online.   RedTalks Facebook Live/Zoom Symposium Series. The key measurable outcomes for this activity will be the size of the live or virtual audience. Our original plan was to draw a live audience of 125 people at Metro State. However, we are making plans instead to livestream the event because the COVID-19 pandemic We will also conduct a survey of participants, and track the number of respondents who report that, in watching the RedTalks, they encountered ideas that are new to them and that impact their thinking or make them want to learn more about American Indian perspectives, values, worldviews, and experiences.   Voice of the People Series. The key measurable outcomes for this activity will be the six completed interview sessions, which we anticipate will reach total audience of at least 10,000 people. We will also explore ways to determine what attracted the audience to the interviews: Were they most drawn to the conversation topic? The interviewee? The format? We will track the audience for each interview in the series in an attempt to determine if there is a pattern to participation: does each interview reach a similar-sized audience or are differences evident across interviews?   American Indian Artists Hub (Customer Relationship Management Platform). The key measurable outcome for this activity will be the number of profile materials created for artists, with at least 10 completed and featured on the hub by the end of the calendar year.

Monitoring information is used to characterize and assess the extent of pesticide impacts to Minnesota's water resources. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) has been monitoring the state's water resources continuously for more than 25 years. With over two decades of monitoring data, the MDA operates one of the few programs with sufficient long-term data to evaluate changes in water quality over time. Clean Water funding has allowed the MDA to increase the number of detectable pesticides, increase the sensitivity of detection of certain pesticides and increase the overall number of samples that can be analyzed on an annual basis. As a result, Minnesota’s pesticide water monitoring program is one of the most comprehensive programs in the country and is regarded as a national leader. The MDA increased the number of detectable pesticides from 44 in 2009 to 185 in 2022. Pesticides on the new method are now being quantified at a parts-per-trillion (ppt) level, which is a shift from the previous parts-per-billion (ppb) level. Approximately 1600 pesticide samples were submitted for analysis during 2010, an increase of 600 samples compared to 2009. This increase of 600 samples should be maintained, but may be lower if dry weather conditions persist. To learn more about our monitoring program, please visit MDA's Clean Water Fund website or the MDA's pesticide monitoring website.

Clean Water Funds have supported an increase in the number of detectable pesticides from 44 in 2009 to 185 in 2022. The most significant advancement of the new methods is the ability to quantify concentrations for many of these chemicals at much lower levels.

Since European settlement the once vast expanses of Minnesota prairie covering 18 million acres have been reduced to small remnants totaling about 235,000 acres. With this decline has also come a drastic reduction in the genetic diversity of the various species typical of Minnesota prairies. This has resulted in inbreeding of remnant species populations, which reduces the robustness of plants and can result in yet further population decline. Researchers at the University of Minnesota are using this appropriation for efforts aimed at protecting the long-term health and sustainability of remaining prairie in the state by collecting prairie plant genetic material for long-term preservation, collecting and studying microbes that promote prairie plant health, and examining the capacity for prairie plants to adapt to changing conditions.

As the demand for bioenergy feedstocks increases in Minnesota and elsewhere, land use changes could impact wildlife. However, with proper management strategies it is possible that bioenergy production could actually improve conditions for wildlife rather than make them worse.

OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Many wildlife areas and conservation lands were formerly marginal agricultural fields that have been converted into rich habitats of grasses and flowering plants. That habitat traditionally required maintenance by prescribed burning. However, mowing can be more feasible and can provide future commodity incentives through a carbon-negative energy source. Our prevailing question was how grassland areas could be harvested annually without upsetting their ability to support wildlife. We organized over 1,000 acres into 60 production-size, 20-acre plots spanning the temperature gradient in western Minnesota. The plots were harvested in prescribed intensities and patterns each fall from 2009-2012 after plants had senesced and migratory wildlife left. Each year, surveys of songbirds, gamebirds, small mammals, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and plants were conducted and bioenergy potential calculated. Our results showed that bioenergy can be harvested sustainably without harming resident wildlife by following simple protocols developed during the project. Specifically, leaving unharvested refuges of 5-10 acres rotated annually in a 20-acre plot minimized significant impact on wildlife, and we recommend such refuges as best practices. Harvesting without any refuge negatively affected some wildlife, specifically prairie and meadow voles, a shrew, sedge wren, common yellow throat, clay-colored sparrow, swamp sparrow, waterfowl nesting, and potentially native bees. Deer mice, grasshopper sparrows, common grackles, spiders, flies and beetles increased with harvest. Plant cover and biomass did not change significantly during our harvesting tests. We cut and analyzed over 3,000 tons of biomass with yields ranging from 0.6-1.8 tons/acre and projected ethanol yields averaging 108-gallons/ton. Recommendations for best harvesting equipment are low weight-to-tire-width ratio, easily repaired, and readily cleaned between fields. The broad consensus among wildlife experts is that diverse ecosystems offer habitat that is superior for a spectrum of wildlife, The overall significance of this project is that it identified and tested better methods for maintaining such habitat on public and private grasslands of Minnesota.

"," Finish statistical analysis for data. Present study results at state and national conferences. Publish two journal articles, one is accepted for publication in Groundwater journal in March 2018. "," Results of the statistical analysis are as follows: Filtering can make a significant difference in samples that were elevated then reduced in arsenic concentration a year later. Arsenic concentrations stabilize 3 to 6 months after well construction. Collecting samples at least 6 months after the well is drilled will give a more representative result of the long-term concentration. Collection of samples from plumbing rather than from the drill rig will give a more representative result.  Arsenic concentrations will not necessarily decrease with time, half the time it may increase a year later. Recommendation is for the homeowner to collect one more arsenic sample in the life of the well to verify the arsenic result, once the well has stabilized, at least 6 months afterward.

Resonance inspires inner/outer connections to create sustainable impacts. A. NEEDS. An increasing number of people of Asian heritages in Minnesota, and more broadly, in many other parts of the U.S. have reported experiencing racism over the past few years as COVID-19 virus spread across the world. Because COVID-19 was unknown to the public until the outbreak in Wuhan, China, some Americans feel justified in spreading xenophobic messages that blames Asian-identifying people for this deadly virus. The anti-Asian racism we face is only escalating, as national leadership continues to use the term like China Virus,such xenophobic language against Asians. Racist actions ranging from using xenophobic and racial slurs, to refusing customer service, to outright physical attacks have also increased. To combat the racial hatred, Artists from Pan Asian Arts Alliance come together to create a new Dance Drama - Project Resonancethat showcases the cross-cultural beauties. Project Resonanceis a collaboration between African American and Asian American artists to jointly create diverse music and dance pieces to reflect COVID-19 impacts on the BIPOC communities, and to organize the ""Resonance"" dance drama, to support cross-cultural understanding and appreciation, in order to mitigate the pandemic conflicts and support intercultural harmony.

As a journey going through the Pandemic, the composer Jarrelle Barton has composed new music, to highlight the pandemic impacts on families, and incorporated 3 new Guzheng music in reflecting the composer's experience with COVID: from just learning about COVID, not paying much attention, to realizing the disaster it created; to feeling angry and frustration; then learning to adapt, and end with appreciation and hope for all of us. Then the Choreographer XueFeng Lee has taken the music and choreographed multiple dances to thread a dance drama together, to better reflect different stage of struggles among BIPOCs, and end with a positive note - as a unified message - wearing the mask to protect yourself and protect the community. Not only was the music were beautifully played, and the 22 dancers' ensemble from the Unity Dance Company clearly illustrated how pandemic progressed as virus evolved, along with sacrifices of many, to where we are now - a new normal.

Restoration of healthy prairie ecosystems requires both protection and reconnection of remnants to create prairie-dominated landscape areas of 10,000-50,000 acres. However, it is unlikely such aims can be achieved without balancing desired conservation goals with an ability for local communities to utilize prairies for generating sustainable income. Through this appropriation the Nature Conservancy will work with the University of Minnesota and the local communities of two prairie landscapes in order to develop a framework for how prairie-based economic uses that balance with prairie conservation goals could provide sufficient return on labor and investment to sustain rural families and communities. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan calls for protecting native prairie and restoring connectivity to prairie core areas using grass-based agriculture as a conservation tool. To provide information and techniques needed to meet these goals, we studied two prairie landscapes in western Minnesota: Agassiz Beach Ridges (127,000 acres) and Glacial Lakes (169,000 acres). Using GIS analysis and field survey, we developed a current land use/land cover map that revealed that even in high-quality prairie landscapes, over 25% was cropland and 31% was invasive dominated or mixed native-invasive grassland. To guide conservation activities, we identified conservation targets and specified methods for measuring progress. To rebuild functioning prairie systems, we identified all parcels containing native prairie for possible management and protection, as well as tracts that if restored, could buffer and reconnect prairie. A social analysis using interviews with local constituencies revealed support for conservation if it were tied to working grasslands that promoted rural socio-economic vitality. To facilitate needed restoration, we developed a state transition model that identified feasible restoration transitions from common ""start states"" (based on current land cover) to conservation and utility prairie and meadow ""end states"". We developed restoration plans including techniques, seed mixes, and estimated costs for twenty transitions. To make the expansion of grass-based agriculture feasible, landowners will need assistance with the restoration costs. As land use decisions are driven not only by financial returns but also potentially by the value of ecological services, ongoing InVest modeling will highlight land use patterns where the provision of public and private benefits in future scenarios is optimized. These scenarios are designed to reflect the goals of the Prairie Plan, as well as social and economic constraints. This comprehensive approach provides resources for implementing prairie conservation in western Minnesota and could serve as a model for conservation planning elsewhere. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION The primary purpose of this project was to provide information and techniques for the implementation of the Minnesota Prairie Conservation plan in two prairie landscapes in western Minnesota. The primary audience is individuals and organizations interested or involved in prairie conservation, especially the Prairie Plan Local Technical Teams. Some parts of the final report, including the prairie conservation planning maps and the social analysis, have already been shared with the teams. Information from the report has also been included in presentations to the teams and other local groups including the County Board of Commissioners. Parts of the report will be available on Conservancy or University websites. Over the next year, information from the report will form the basis for several planned publications in scientific journals.Project Publication: Implementing the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan in Landscapes of Western Minnesota (PDF - 11 MB)",,"FINAL REPORT",2010-07-01,2014-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Steve,Chaplin,"The Nature Conservancy","1101 W River Pkwy, Ste 200",Minneapolis,MN,55415,"(612) 331-0750",mcornett@tnc.org,,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/reconnecting-fragmented-prairie-landscapes,,,,

So far through this project, 1,082 objects were safely rehoused. Intermediate-term goal: We achieved our goal that researchers and M staff will have more access to the collection. M's staff were able to easily pull out 30 objects for guest curators to view at the end of June 2018. Placing them back to their location was also easy. The tall ladder slides between the shelves to reach items. And it is safer for the objects to be moved around by the new design because there is less crouching, less reaching, and wider aisles. In addition to this, this past year, the M has allowed more guests than ever to have access to the space because viewing objects has become easier. Without objects in aisles, objects and guests are safe walking through the space. (Only guests with special permission and who have signed our non-disclosure agreement are allowed to storage, as it is a discreet location. These include curators and art donors.) Before the rehousing project, simple processing and cataloging was a difficult and cumbersome task. Now with more shelving space, M staff can store their in-between projects in temporary locations, works can be pulled out to view and placed back in its home location. It has become a much more pleasurable place to work. The rehousing project has also been an enormous positive step for the M as it prepared for its Phase 1 open and preparing for future exhibitions. Without this rehousing project, locating and pulling numerous objects for these future projects would have been nearly impossible. In the past month, we have been able to create a space for temporary storage of outgoing, incoming, research, and current acquisitions all at once because of the free space from the rehousing.

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

The goal of the RIM-WRP Partnership was to achieve the greatest wetland functions and values, while optimizing wildlife habitat on every acre enrolled in the partnership. The RIM-WRP partnership combined Minnesota's RIM Reserve conservation easement program and the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP). Combining RIM Reserve and WRP allowed OHF to leverage Federal Farm Bill conservation dollars to Minnesota. Utilizing both programs resulted in competitive payment rates to landowners and sharing of the costs associated with perpetual easement acquisition and restoration by both the federal and state programs. The RIM-WRP Partnership held one to two joint meetings per year to provide program oversight and guidance and to establish payment rates for upcoming sign-ups. Specifically, the RIM-WRP Partnership used the USFWS Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET), located in Fergus Falls, to develop a GIS Wildlife Habitat Potential Model that was used with the WRP and RIM Reserve programs’ environmental evaluation. In addition, the RIM-WRP Partnership developed the Minnesota Wetland Restoration Evaluation Worksheet which was used to evaluate each easement application on its potential to restore wetland functions and values along with optimum wildlife habitat benefits. RIM-WRP was offered statewide but had a priority focus in the ecological provinces of the state that have experienced significant losses of wetland and associated prairies. It was delivered by local NRCS staff, local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) staff and assisted by program staff from both NRCS and the Board of Water andSoil Resources (BWSR). Since the SWCD is responsible for the local delivery of the RIM Reserve program to private landowners on behalf of the State of Minnesota, they were ideally suited to work in concert with their local NRCS staff to efficiently and effectively deliver the RIM-WRP partnership. Once an easement is acquired NRCS is responsible for maintenance, inspection and monitoring during the life of their 30-year WRP easement. The state of Minnesota assumes sole responsibility via its RIM Reserve easement once the 30-year WRP easement has expired. BWSR partners with local SWCDs to carry-out oversight, monitoring and inspection of its conservation easements. The RIM-WRP Partnership demonstrated that the State of Minnesota can cooperatively work with a federal partner (NRCS) and through a local delivery system (SWCD, NRCS, and DU) to implement a permanent easement protection program that yielded thousands of acres of permanently protected wildlife habitat. Significant leverage obtained was due to the amount of easement payments, conservation plan payments, and other costs the NRCS contributed to this partnership. The NRCS made the bulk of the easement payment portion through 30-year WRP Easement acquisition, while BWSR paid an additional portion for the Permanent RIM Easement. NRCS paid a high percentage of the restoration costs for these easements, with RIM picking up the remaining costs. The use of NRCS Practice Standards, along with BWSR's Native Vegetation Guidelines led to very high diversity mixes being seeded. The level of wetland restoration was dependent on restorable extent that would not impact lands outside the easement area. BWSR & NRCS evaluated restoration extent during our scoring review to ensure restoration was actually feasible, then followed up with site analysis and surveys. We enrolled 60 permanent conservation easements totaling 5,559 acres of wetland grassland wildlife habitat complexes. These restored wetlands and native grassland complexes will provide critical habitat for migratory waterfowl and other wetland dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wetlands and adjacent grasslands provide habitat for waterfowl, pheasants, deer and non-game species, some that are threatened or endangered. As of 8/21/18 42 easements have been restored and 18 are in the restoration process. BWSR and the NRCS are committed to seeing all restorations through to ensure all sites provide beneficial habitat. Due to delays with easement processing, restoration was also delayed in several cases. BWSR is held to the statutory requirement that requires restoration of the easements we acquire. This restoration includes establishment of acceptable vegetation, if the current cover does not adequately meet site goals.

The restoration evaluation program intends to increase accountability and transparency in the use of Legacy Funds by formalizing and elevating the process of assessing project performance and reporting findings to stakeholders. Site assessment teams will use project appropriate assessment measures to ensure established science based best practices are being applied on the ground in selected Legacy Fund restoration projects. This level of assessment goes beyond standard reporting requirements and exceeds operational capacity of most programs.

This appropriation helped create the new Mille Lakes Moraine SNA and Badoura Jack Pine Forest SNA. Additions were acquired to Blanket Flower Prairie and St. Wendel Tamarack Bog SNAs. Two NPB easements were acquired in the Correll Working Lands area. Seventeen NPB easement baseline property reports were completed. Restoration and enhancement accomplishments on over 4,000 acres included: native seed collection from 186 acres (16 sites) and seeding of 68 acres (11 sites); invasives species control on 1,175 acres (about 73 sites), invasive species inventory on 2,646 acres (36 sites), and 4 invasives boot brush kiosks installed (3 sites); prescribed burning of 3,733 acres (54 sites); new interpretive signs for 5 SNAs and installation of other signs (31 sites); 4.3 miles of fence removed, repaired or built; and 6 sites cleaned up. About 84 of these projects involved CCM. Twenty-six adaptive management plans were completed by primarily by contractors (covering 5603 acres) all or in part with this appropriation. Ecological prairie monitoring has been conducted on pollinators at 14 SNAs, snakes at 1 SNA, birds at 2 SNAs, and prairie vegetation at 6 SNA and 6 NPB sites. Improvements to the Adaptive Management Spatial Database were implemented. Prairie stewardship work was comprised of two prairie landowner workshops, three prairie practitioner forums, presentations at an environmental fair, and direct technical assistance to 75 native prairie landowners. Contractors prepared 36 Prairie Stewardship Plans and staff have completed 2 Prairie Stewardship Plans.

These events have brought together diverse communities in Minneapolis, including the African American, Asian, Native American, Pan African, and Scandinavian communities. The outcomes achieved through these events are as follows: Community Event Dinner:The community event dinner served as a platform for fostering intercultural connections and understanding among different communities in Minneapolis. By bringing together various cultural groups, the dinner created opportunities for dialogue, shared experiences, and appreciation of diverse traditions and heritage. Flag Song Recording: Collaborating with local Somali artists and youth, the Somali Museum recorded a flag song. This initiative aimed to celebrate Somali culture, promote artistic expression, and provide a platform for young talents to showcase their creativity and passion. The recording serves as a tangible outcome of the collaboration and cultural preservation efforts.

The timeline was revised as follows: May- June: Stakeholder interviews and needs analysis, June- August: Develop content and narratives, develop contact and interview list, July- Nov 30th: Filming begins with identified community members and background footage. We are on schedule with our milestones to date. To begin the project, we interviewed community members and community partners with a focus in Rice County. Our community partners included: Healthy Communities Initiative, Workforce Development, Metro Youth Diversion, Jennie-O Turkey, and others. As we progressed, we identified common themes that arose in our conversations. The interviews revealed a need for a greater understanding of Somali culture in the following three areas: Somali youth engagement, Somali culture in the workplace, and Somali women in their community. Through referrals from our community partners and our own networks, we developed a list of people whom we'd like to interview. Poet Nation Media developed a list of questions related to our narratives and began interviews. In December, the Program Team was shown a preview of the content thus far. Our filmmaker has called his work 'edutainment.' Through this approach, we strive to address misconceptions and ignorance with humor and art, using video as our medium. We believe the videos, when complete, will be useful in many sectors: from business HR departments, workforce development partners, community health professionals, and community organizations such as the Rotary and local churches. The need for this work to be presented to businesses in Rice County is great. ; The funding provided through this grant has yielded substantial and impactful results, greatly advancing our mission to enhance understanding and support for the Somali community. Through careful planning, dedicated execution, and rigorous evaluation, we have achieved significant milestones. Work Accomplished: Local communities had the opportunity to learn about Somali culture and heritage. Also, many second-generation Americans with Somali parents were able to gain an understanding of their ancestral backgrounds that they hadn't had before. This has inspired conversations for the younger generations to take pride in their culture and act as a bridge between both sides. Video Series Production: Poet Nation Media and the Somali Community Resettlement Services collaborated to produce a comprehensive video series that delves into key topics relevant to organizations working with Somali communities. Among the segments, there are explorations of Somali youth, Somali women, Somalis in the workplace, and the integration of Somali youth born and raised in America into their cultural heritage. The series provides insight into changes within the Somali community as it adapts to new surroundings. Expert Interviews: Working in collaboration, Poet Nation and the Somali Community and Resettlement Services conducted a collection of in-depth interviews with experts. The interviewees consisted of both Somali Americans and recent arrivals who possessed extensive knowledge of Somali culture, tradition, folklore, language development, evolving communities post-resettlement to different parts of the world, and many other topics. These interviews offered valuable insights into various aspects of Somali life such as unique cultural practices and challenges encountered during the immigrant experience when settling in Minnesota. Scripting and Storyboarding: Developed meticulous scripts and storyboards for each video segment, ensuring a clear, cohesive, and culturally sensitive narrative. This process involved careful consideration of the information to be conveyed and its resonance with the intended audience. Filming and Production: Filmed interviews at SCRS's offices, providing a conducive environment for experts to share their knowledge. Poet Nation Media's expertise in video production ensured high-quality recordings with professional visuals and audio. Post-Production and Editing: Engaged in thorough post-production and editing, seamlessly integrating graphics, visuals, and overlays to enhance the overall viewing experience. The final product is a polished, informative, and engaging video series. Achievement of Goals: The goals set forth in the training units have been effectively addressed through the video series. These include: Understanding Somali Culture: The videos offer comprehensive insights into Somali culture, covering topics such as cultural and religious distinctives, communication styles, and diverse cultural facets. This information serves as a foundational resource for organizations working with Somali communities. Navigating Challenges and Opportunities: By addressing challenges faced in the immigrant experience, including issues related to youth, mental health, language, and racism, the videos equip organizations with a nuanced understanding of the unique hurdles Somali individuals may encounter. They also highlight opportunities for building stronger connections within the community. Thriving in Organizations: The videos shed light on how Somalis have not only adapted but thrived in Minnesota. This includes discussions on faith, cultural celebrations, and practical considerations like prayer spaces and communication pathways within organizations. The collaboration with Poet Nation Media and the creation of these training videos represent a significant step forward in providing valuable resources for organizations working with Somali communities. These videos are poised to serve as a vital tool in enhancing cultural competence and improving the effectiveness of services provided. We look forward to the positive impact this initiative will have on the community and the organizations involved.",,,"No other funds were leveraged for this period. .

A number of Minnesota's migratory bird species spend parts of their lives in the areas impacted by the spill and impacts on their populations in the state could become evident over time. Impacts could result from immediate losses of birds that were present at the time of the spill or from cumulative negative effects resulting from contamination of the food chain by petroleum chemicals and the dispersants used on the oil. The two Minnesota species that are potentially most vulnerable are the common loon and the American white pelican - some of their young would have been present in the Gulf at the time of the spill and their behavior and feeding patterns put them at greater risk of exposure to chemicals from the spill persisting in the environment. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is using this appropriation to determine whether or not common loon or American white pelican populations in Minnesota have been impacted by the Gulf oil spill. Besides population declines in the two species, other impacts that could occur as a result of chemical contamination in the food chain include changes in behavior, migratory abilities, reproductive success, or longevity. If a link is documented Minnesota may be eligible for remediation funds from the Federal Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) process currently underway, and those funds could be used to help restore the populations of these two species. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS - PART A: Minnesota Common Loons and American White Pelicans Concerns about impacts of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill on Minnesota loons and white pelicans led to the need for an assessment of the extent to which pelicans and loons were exposed to impacts by PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) petroleum contaminants, which are carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic, and DOSS (dioctyl sodium sulfosuccinate) contaminants that cause respiratory, nervous system, liver, kidney, and blood disorders, cancer, and hormone disruption. A statewide pelican count in 2012 showed an increase of 16-19% since 2010 to a level of 22,000 nesting pairs. Pelican egg and bill knob analysis revealed that 58 of 99 pelican eggs had PAH. For bill knobs, 29 of 37 had PAH. DOSS was found in 27 of 48 eggs in 2011 but no DOSS was found in 2012. Fourteen of 37 bill knobs had DOSS. In Phase 2 of this project, pelican eggs will continue to be tested, and a statewide pelican survey in 2015 will include population trend analysis and determination of the ratio of young birds to adults as an indicator of reproductive success. Loon research included satellite telemetry on 13 loons and geolocator research on 42 loons. This work revealed migration phenology and routes, wintering sites, diving behavior, and on the extent to which PAH and DOSS have been accumulated by loons. Loon eggs (6 of 27), fat (5 of 29), blood (20 of 52), and feathers (5 of 35) had PAH present. PAH and DOSS contaminants picked up in the Gulf of Mexico could cause long-term sublethal effects. Phase 2 of this project will involve assessment of egg hatchability and chick survival. This information will be used to develop a federal NRDAR court case to recover damages to Minnesota loons from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. LCCMR-funded research (phase 2 and 3) will continue through 2017. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION - PART A: Minnesota Common Loons and American White Pelicans In summer of 2012 Ron Schara's photography team covered the capture and banding with geolocators the loons on Lake George in Anoka County. That story was featured on Minnesota Bound on September 1 and 7, 2013 on KARE-TV. An article was published in the 2013 January-February issue of the Minnesota Conservation Volunteer magazine. Editor Kathleen Weflen devoted two pages of introduction to this study and reflecting concerns for protecting Minnesota's loons and water quality. The 12-page article ""Flying with the Loons"" by Adele Porter covered the work by Kevin Kenow and his staff from the US Geological Survey as they have studied Minnesota's loons over the past two years, and cited credits to the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund for financial support of this work. Outdoor reporter Dennis Anderson accompanied the loon capture crew on July 16 and wrote an article in the Star Tribune on July 21, 2013, about this loon research project. We have received recent requests from the media for updates on this study, but we have been deferring response until we have a more comprehensive analysis of the project results. We are also reluctant to release too much information at this point because BP has hired a person from Maine to find out what we are doing in regard to the loon study. Subsequently, their lawyers may try to use that information to minimize concerns or effects on Minnesota loons and pelicans related to the future NRDAR settlement from BP to the State of Minnesota for damages to the state's loon and pelican population due to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Part B: Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas - PROJECT OVERVIEW A state Breeding Bird Atlas is a comprehensive systematic field survey of the occurrence, distribution, diversity, and breeding status of bird species within the state. Atlases are used to set conservation priorities, develop conservation plans, and guide habitat protection and restoration efforts. Minnesota is one of only seven states in the country that has yet to complete a Breeding Bird Atlas. Audubon Minnesota will use this appropriation to complete the Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas and create related publications, including a book and online atlas with distribution maps, breeding status, and historical species information. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS - PART B: Breeding Bird Atlass The Minnesota Breeding Bird Atlas project represents the most detailed, comprehensive assessment of the breeding distribution of Minnesota's birds ever undertaken. It is a multi-partner project which included: Audubon Minnesota, MN DNR, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Minnesota Ornithologists' Union, individuals from the University of Minnesota, and many others. Representatives from these organizations made up a Steering Committee which helped oversee and advise the project. All field data collection was completed in August 2013 with incidental reports from volunteers coming into the database through September. The project recorded 372,172 bird sightings during the 5-years from 2009 - 2013 all of which are in our database. These sightings report 250 species, 232 of which we consider confirmed breeders. Data was collected from each of the 2,339 priority blocks which represent every Township in Minnesota. Additional point count data was collected from 99.5% of the Townships in Minnesota. Following the completion of our field data collection we reviewed, and reformatted 24 external datasets representing 20,000 records which were added to the database. An extensive quality control program was applied to the data involving species experts, regional reviewers from around the state and a verification committee. The number of registered volunteers in the project totaled 1,144 and they reported driving over 100,000 miles and spending 33,000 hours of contributed effort, which is an underestimate of their contribution since our data relies on self-reporting and we know many volunteers did not report this information. Our website, mnbba.org, which allowed volunteers to report their findings, provide county and species maps and a searchable database continues to provide information to the public. Data analysis and results dissemination will occur over the next 2 - 3 years. PROJECT RESULTS USE AND DISSEMINATION - PART B: Breeding Bird Atlas Preliminary data has been available on the mnbba.org website since the first year of the project. This website provides general information on the project, its methodology, and purpose. Through it data on specific species can be queried and mapped. We will continue to use this url as we migrate data analysis and information to a new format over the next 2 years. We are developing plans to store the data in the Avian Knowledge Network. Publications using BBA data have included the Minnesota Conservation Volunteer and presentations at the Midwest Bird Conservation and Monitoring Network meetings, the Minnesota Chapter of the Wildlife Society, and the Minnesota Ornithologists' Union meetings.","The 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico had widespread impacts on resident wildlife in the affected areas, many of which will not be fully understood for many years to come. In particular is the potential loss or long term impact on migratory bird populations from central and eastern North America that spend part of their life cycles in the affected areas. In addition to the immediate impacts on birds that were in the Gulf at the time of the spill, there are also long term impacts to consider, such as impacts on behavior, migratory abilities, reproductive success, or longevity from contamination of the food chain by petroleum chemicals or derivatives of the dispersants used on the oil. The two Minnesota species identified to be the most potentially vulnerable to impacts from the oil spill are the Common Loon and the American White Pelican. Long term monitoring is needed to determine if population levels of these two species in Minnesota have declined since the spill and if any declines are attributable to the spill.","FINAL REPORT",2011-07-01,2014-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Carrol,Henderson,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Rd, Box 25","St Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5104",carrol.henderson@state.mn.us,"Analysis/Interpretation, Inventory, Mapping, Monitoring, Research","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources","2011-3p-14, 2011-3p-9, 2011-3p-4, 2011-3p-8, 2011-3p-3, 2011-3p-13, 2011-3p-12, 2011-3p-11, 2011-3p-2, 2011-3p-1, 2011-3p-7, 2011-3p-6, 2011-3p-10, 2011-3p-5",Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/species-concern-investigations,,,,

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is using this appropriation to acquire 87 acres in the Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area, located northeast of Brainerd, and 17 acres in Whitewater State Park, located between Rochester and Winona. Overall Project Outcome and Results The Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund funding allowed for the following: Ownership of approximately 87 acres in the Cuyuna Country State Recreation Area. Acquisition of this parcel provides for unified ownership of park-managed land and includes a key access point into the recreation area. This parcel also has over one mile of water frontage on three lakes within the recreation area. Ownership of a 17-acre parcel in Whitewater State Park. Acquisition of this parcel provides protection on the Whitewater River and adjacent to the park visitor center. The current trail system lies close to the boundary and could now be extended for additional river resource interpretation. The parcel also provides a natural buffer between the visitor center and private development. Ownership of approximately 20 acres of land in Nerstrand Big Woods State Park due to partially funding from the Trust Fund. This property is identified by Minnesota County Biological Survey as having outstanding biodiversity significance and has not been logged in over 100 years. The spring ephemerals prevalent in this area of the park are now protected. The site is also key to maintaining the closed canopy and diverse understory characteristic of 'big woods' in Nerstrand Big Woods State Park.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is using this appropriation to install photovoltaic energy generation equipment and solar-powered water wells, rehabilitate stormwater collection and storage systems, repair and stabilize stream bank erosion, and construct rustic camper cabins. A number of parks are slated for improvements, including St Croix State Park near Hinckley, Soudan Underground Mine State Park near Ely, and Split Rock Lighthouse State Park and Tettegouche State Park along the north shore of Lake Superior. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The purpose of this project was to focus on renewable energy improvements, water quality enhancement, and attracting new users at Minnesota State Parks and Recreation Areas. This project consisted of installation of photovoltaic solar generation facilities at Tettegouche State Park, the construction of 4 rustic camper cabins at Lake Bemidji State Park, and the major rehabilitation of the storm water management system and repair of an eroding river bank at St. Croix State Park. The first activity was to install photovoltaic solar panels at Tettegouche State Park. This allows us to showcase renewable energy at one of our busiest parks. There were 24KW of pole-mounted photovoltaic generating equipment installed. The system has 96 panels and each panel has a nameplate power rating of 250 watts. These panels will generate power for the brand new visitor center that will open to the public in the spring of 2014. Any excess power is exported to the electrical grid. The Utility, MN Power will credit any net excess kWh generation on the meter's monthly invoice. Annual saving are $3,200. The second activity was to rehabilitate storm water collection and storage systems at the St. Croix State Park Visitor Center and repair and stabilize river bank erosion on the St. Croix River. Storm water treatment and storage facilities were lacking. The original storm water management system was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930's. A 20 car parking lot was re-graded and repaved with historic features such as stone curbing preserved. Best management practices are now demonstrated including natural treatment systems such as rain gardens, grassy swales and infiltration pipes were used to redirect storm water from the parking lot away from the river. The hillside that had eroded into the St. Croix River has been stabilized. It was re-graded and restored with native vegetation. The delta of sediment has been removed from the river. The third activity was to construct 4 rustic camper cabins at Lake Bemidji State Park. They are well insulated to exceed the energy code by 30% and they exceed Minnesota Sustainable Design Guidelines. FRC sustainably grown lumber was used. Camper cabins have been found to attract new users who may not have camping equipment or feel comfortable sleeping out in a tent. These cabins are open for use year round.

This includes unique landforms, fossil remains, plant and animal communities, rare and endangered species, or other unique biotic or geological features. These sites play an important role in scientific study, public education, and outdoor recreation. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is using this appropriation to conduct restoration activities on approximately 600 acres in existing SNAs and to acquire an additional 100 acres to be added to the SNA system. Overall Project Outcome and Results Acquisition and SNA designation of five properties at three SNAs was completed permanently protecting and providing for public use of 207.32 acres (pro-rated as 106.4 acres with this appropriation). Acquisitions include the following: A new SNA was established with acquisition of the 14.72-acre Morton Outcrops SNA - the heart of a 65-acre exceptional and geologically significant Minnesota River valley rock outcrop site with seven rare species - located in Renville County. Two additions totaling 105.7 acres (pro-rated as 50.3 acres for this appropriation) to the Hastings Sand Coulee SNA were acquired; along with a 78-acre adjoining tract transferred from DNR Wildlife, these acquisitions mean that 267 acres is now protected as SNA out of the ~500-acre sand coulee area which is the largest remaining sand prairie complex in Dakota County and is home to 14 rare species including three snakes and two butterflies. Two native prairie sites were added to Blanket Flower Prairie SNA in Clay County which now protects about 430 acres of habitat for 106 bird species including the greater prairie chicken: a 14-acre addition was acquired with this appropriation; and the 135.9-acre Ole Huseby Homestead addition to Blanket Flower Prairie SNA was acquired in part with this funding (pro-rated as 27.4 acres for this appropriation). A total of 563 acres at 27 SNAs across the state received restoration and enhancement work, plus development projects were completed at 17 SNAs, thus increasing the native habitat quality and public use of these SNAs. In summary: One 11-acre prairie reconstruction project was completed. Woody invasive/non-native species were removed on 202 acres at 11 SNAs and herbaceous or seedling invasive species were removed at another 44 acres at four SNAs. Prescribed burning was completed on 317 acres at nine SNAs. New Adaptive Management Plans were completed for two sites. Conservation Corps Minnesota (CCM) was involved in these projects at ten SNAs. Project Results Use and Dissemination Information about Scientific and Natural Area (SNA) sites, including those SNAs with new acquisition, restoration, enhancement and development activities through this appropriation, is available on the DNR website (www.mndnr.gov/snas).

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.

As the artificial watersheds move excess water into the natural watershed the water also delivers contaminants, including excess nutrients, estrogenic compounds, pharmaceuticals, and other synthetic chemicals. Once in the natural watershed these contaminants pose threats to the health of animals, humans, and the environment. Through this appropriation, scientists from the University of Minnesota's Department of Soil, Water, and Climate are using specialized technologies to identify specific, on-the-ground efforts that can be implemented to help protect Minnesota's natural watersheds by ""disconnecting"" them from the artificial watersheds through a variety of practices. Findings will be used to guide strategic installation of wetlands, riparian buffer strips, and perennial vegetation in agricultural areas of the state that can help manage excess flows and contaminants, thereby reducing water quality impairments. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS Artificial watersheds have significant areas that are drained using ditches and/or buried perforated pipes, leading to hydrologic characteristics that differ from natural watersheds. Water and pollutants from artificial watersheds often disturb the hydrologic regime and impair water quality in natural watersheds. This project aims to protect Minnesota's natural watersheds by disconnecting them from the artificial watersheds. High resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) from LiDAR and corresponding digital orthoquad photos were obtained in Beauford Creek, Seven Mile Creek and Elm Creek Watersheds. These data were used along with GIS databases for land use, soils, and hydrologic networks to predict the locations of renewable wetlands. In the Beauford watershed (5,500 ac), logistic regression was able to accurately identify 69% of the potentially restorable wetland locations. Most of the error was due to very small wetlands that are difficult to identify using GIS techniques alone. In the Seven Mile Creek watershed (23,500 ac), logistic regression was able to accurately identify 70% of the potentially restorable wetland locations. In Elm Creek (186,600 ac), 94% of the potentially restorable wetlands were identified. These results show that it is possible to quickly and accurately identify a large proportion of larger restorable wetlands over large areas in Minnesota using straightforward terrain analysis techniques, soil databases and logistic regression. The optimum locations for restoring wetlands were determined based on factors that included the location and extent of subsurface tile drains, the contributing area to the wetland, the distance between the potential wetland and nearby streams, ditches or county tile mains, the amount of discharge from subsurface tile drains to wetlands, and the ratio of drainage flow to wetland storage capacity. Using these criteria, 44 optimal sites for wetland restoration were identified in Beauford Creek watershed, while 75 sites were identified in Seven Mile Creek watershed. Placing wetlands at these locations is optimal in terms of intercepting, treating and reducing the effects of subsurface tile discharge to nearby drainage ditches. More efficient approaches for processing LiDAR DEMs were developed using a supercomputer. The new methods run much faster than conventional methods for processing LiDAR DEMs on a personal computer. Terrain attributes for DEMs (e.g. slope, flow accumulation, stream power index, compound topographic wetness, etc) were calculated for all 42 Minnesota counties that have LiDAR data. We are exploring the possibility of using the Minnesota Geospatial Information Office web site to disseminate these LiDAR based terrain attributes.",,"Final Report",2010-07-01,2012-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,David,Mulla,"U of MN","439 Borlaug Hall, 1991 Upper Buford Cir","St. Paul",MN,55108,"(612) 625-6721",mulla003@umn.edu,"Analysis/Interpretation, Assessment/Evaluation, Inventory, Mapping, Modeling, Planning","University of Minnesota ",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/strategic-planning-minnesotas-natural-and-artificial-watersheds,,,,

Precision, efficacy, and cost efficiency of numerous types of natural resource management activities can be greatly enhanced by use of this data. Potential users include natural resource professionals at all levels of government and in the private sector. However, most potential users have not yet had experience using this type of data because it's a relatively new technology. Through this appropriation the University of Minnesota's Water Resources Center is developing and implementing a training program that will enable natural resource professionals throughout the state to effectively employ this data in a variety of different applications in natural resource evaluation, management, and protection. OVERALL PROJECT OUTCOME AND RESULTS The State of Minnesota, in 2013, completed acquisition of high resolution digital elevation data using LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging). Full use of the data can greatly enhance natural resource management and protection, however, most natural resource managers did not have experience using this very dense data or its applications.The goal of the project was to enable natural resource managers with GIS skills to effectively use LiDAR data in restoring, protecting, and managing natural resources.The methods used were to develop six teaching modules focused on major application areas, deliver the modules as hands-on workshops in computer laboratories around the state, and then enhance the modules for web-based self-learning. An additional set of four webinars was delivered, recorded, and posted to the web to supplement the workshop modules. An on-line user Forum was established to provide answers to questions about using LiDAR data and its applications.The module subjects are Basics of LiDAR, Terrain Analysis, Hydrology Applications, Engineering Applications, Wetland Mapping, and Forestry Applications. The on-line materials for the modules include lectures and exercises in Powerpoint slide, text, and video formats.The module workshops were delivered in 34 sessions at eight locations across the state, with a total attendance of 558, (226 individuals in one or more modules).Post-workshop surveys enabled workshop presenters to make adjustments to the workshop materials and presentations as the workshops progressed.The webinars addressed the use of hydrology tools recently developed in Minnesota, hydrology applications in the Red River Basin, and LiDAR for non-technical managers and staff. Total webinar participation was 437.The user Forum currently has 24 topic areas and 121 posts answering questions from technicians employing LiDAR data.Post-workshop surveys indicated that participants increased field work efficiency and area covered, performed analyses not previously possible, better targeted practices and resources, and improved visualization of projects and communication with clients.

To manage effectively for these changes it is important to understand how the state’s many lakes respond to these stressors. This includes knowing baseline habitat conditions, observing long-term changes to the baseline, and developing models that can forecast the risks posed and expected impacts of various stressors. In 2009 the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) began an ambitious long-term monitoring effort of 24 “sentinel” lakes throughout the state specifically identified to represent the breath of basic conditions (e.g., water chemistry, habitat conditions, fishery types, surrounding ecosystem types) present in Minnesota’s most common aquatic environments.

Outcomes: - Partners from the Dakota, Ojibwe, Hmong, Mexican, and Somali cultural communities will have shared elements of their cultures and made connections with The Works Museum’s family and school audiences. - The project team will have developed two new workshops that support Minnesota teachers in implementing the Science Standards and will have created an associated interactive station for our museum gallery. - The Works Museum will have demonstrated the ability to successfully co-create programming with members of communities who are historically underrepresented in STEM, document the co-creation process, and establish partnerships with representatives from these five cultural communities. - The Works Museum will have increased our capacity to co-create programs, providing an important foundation for incorporating the diverse Minnesotan community in our work long-term. 2) Goal: To create authentic, meaningful primary resource experiences that allow children to explore the Dakota, Ojibwe, Hmong, Mexican, and Somali cultures through the lens of engineering and that allow kids from non-dominant cultures to see themselves represented in STEM. Outcomes: - Students from non-dominant communities will see their cultures represented in The Works Museum’s programs, feel welcomed at the museum, and engage more meaningfully in STEM experiences. - Workshop participants and museum visitors will interact with and gain a better understanding of engineering contributions from Minnesota American Indian and other non-dominant Minnesota cultural communities. 3) Goal: To provide opportunities for children from the five cultures represented in the project, for children from under-resourced schools, and for all museum visitors to engage with these cultures through hands-on exploration and play. Outcomes: - The Works Museum will deliver new workshops to all 2nd and 4th grade students at each of the six partner schools, selected for their high percentages of students representing the five cultures, reaching an estimated 1,000 students. - An estimated 1,000 children from under-resourced schools will participate in the new programs with subsidized bus and program fees. - In addition to the 2,000 students served through program delivery to partner and under-resourced schools, we estimate that an additional 45,000 museum visitors will engage with these cultures through hands-on exploration and play in the museum gallery during the grant period.

Dr. Eric Ostermeier. It is expected that Minnesota journalists, as well as national journalists covering high profile Gopher State electoral races, will make extensive use of the comprehensive, user-friendly Archive to incorporate historical information and data into their reports on present-day campaigns and elections as well as for stand-alone pieces about Minnesota?s political history. In addition to continued use of web analytics, intermediate-term metrics documenting use of the Archive will include tracking media coverage of the Archive and journalistic use of its information and data using a combination of Google Alerts and various search engines. Dr. Ostermeier will also track interviews and historical information requests he receives from journalists as well as data requests from academics to assist with their scholarly work. Looking to the long-term, it is expected the Archive will not only sustain interest in Minnesota?s political history in future election cycles as a trusted, comprehensive resource users return to visit, but perhaps also a pilot program that will generate interest in the creation of similar Archives in other states. In addition to continued, long-term media and public use of the Archive, it is also projected that academics will utilize the Archive as a source for journal articles and books on Minnesota political history. Finally, it is expected that Minnesota students will gain a greater knowledge of Minnesota political history as educational institutions incorporate the Archive, and the associated writings produced at Smart Politics, into their curriculum in courses on politics, civics, and Gopher State history. The creation of comprehensive, user-friendly historical election archives for other states, whether built through the Smart Politics platform at the University of Minnesota Libraries, state governments, or other data curators, is another indicator to track this project?s long-term influence in shaping public education on state political history. The impact within educational institutions will be measured by tracking on-line syllabi and coursework that links to the Archive. Academic use of the data will also be determined through tracking citations in journals and books.",,3289,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",138411,,"David J.

A list of land acquisitions must be provided as part of the final report. The accomplishment plan must include an easement stewardship plan. Up to $180,000 is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. An annual financial report is required for any monitoring and enforcement fund established, including expenditures from the fund and a description of annual monitoring and enforcement activities. ",,"Protect in easement 1,151 acres of wetlands and 2,234 acres of prairies ",,4517500,"Federal WRP dollars ",13810000,,,6.75,BWSR,"State Government","Eight RIM Wetlands applications were selected for funding on 1146.2 acres from this appropriation. In addition 19 RIM-WRP easements, totaling 2,239 acres were funded. Thus a total of 3,385 acres were protected and restored to wetland and grassland habitat. All easements have been recorded. Leverage from other sources of funds was a little over $4.5M. ",,"  The RIM Wetlands and RIM-WRP  Partnership accelerated the restoration and protection of 3,385 acres of previously drained wetlands and associated upland native grassland wildlife habitat complexes via permanent conservation easements. The goal of RIM Wetlands and the RIM-WRP Partnership was to achieve the greatest wetland functions and values, while optimizing wildlife habitat on every acre enrolled in the partnership.  The RIM-WRP partnership combined Minnesota's RIM Reserve conservation easement program and the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP). Combining RIM Reserve and WRP allowed OHF to leverage Federal Farm Bill conservation dollars to Minnesota. Utilizing both programs resulted in competitive payment rates to landowners and sharing of the costs associated with perpetual easement acquisition and restoration by both the federal and state programs. Unfortunately, circumstances beyond our control such as staffing and other issues at NRCS severely limited the agencies ability to close easements and implement restorations, and BWSR was obligated to restructure the RIM-WRP Partnership into RIM Wetlands in November of 2014. The inability of NRCS to follow through on commitments, dramatically increasing crop and land values and reduced federal leverage resulted in fewer acres being accomplished than originally proposed. These changes are reflected in the 11/18/14 Accomplishment Plan Amendment and testimony provided by BWSR staff at that time.  The RIM Wetlands Program and RIM-WRP Partnership held one to two joint meetings per year to provide program oversight and guidance and to establish payment rates for upcoming sign-ups. Specifically,both programs used the USFWS Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET), located in Fergus Falls, to develop a GIS Wildlife Habitat Potential Model that was used with the WRP and RIM Reserve programs’ environmental evaluation. In addition, the Minnesota Wetland Restoration Evaluation Worksheet was used to evaluate each easement application on its potential to restore wetland functions and values along with optimum wildlife habitat benefits. Both programs were offered statewide but had a priority focus in the ecological provinces of the state that have experienced significant losses of wetland and associated prairies. It was delivered by Ducks Unlimited (DU) staff, local NRCS staff, local Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) staff and assisted by program staff from both NRCS and the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR). Since the SWCD is responsible for the local delivery of the RIM Reserve program to private landowners on behalf of the State of Minnesota, they were ideally suited to work in concert with their local DU and NRCS staff to efficiently and effectively deliver the RIM-WRP partnership. In the case of RIM-WRP once an easement is acquired NRCS is responsible for maintenance, inspection and monitoring during the life of their 30-year WRP easement. The state of Minnesota assumes sole responsibility via its RIM Reserve easement once the 30-year WRP easement has expired. For RIM Wetlands the state assumes responsibility for monitoring and enforcement as soon as the easement is recorded. BWSR partners with local SWCDs to carry-out oversight, monitoring and inspection of its conservation easements.  Throughout its  history the RIM-WRP Partnership demonstrated that the State of Minnesota can cooperatively work with a federal partner (NRCS) and through a local delivery system (SWCD, NRCS, and DU) to implement a permanent easement protection program that yielded thousands of acres of permanently protected wildlife habitat. Significant leverage obtained was due to the amount of easement payments, conservation plan payments, and other costs the NRCS contributed to this partnership. The NRCS made the bulk of the easement payment portion through 30-year WRP Easement acquisition, while BWSR paid an additional portion for the Permanent RIM Easement. It is most unfortunate that this partnership had to end after conserving nearly 20,000 acres cumulatively. NRCS paid a high percentage of the restoration costs for these easements, with RIM picking up the remaining costs. The use of NRCS Practice Standards, along with BWSR's Native Vegetation Guidelines led to very high diversity mixes being seeded. The level of wetland restoration was dependent on restorable extent that would not impact lands outside the easement area.  BWSR & NRCS evaluated restoration extent during our scoring review to ensure restoration was actually feasible, then followed up with site analysis and surveys. Eight RIM Wetlands applications were selected for funding on 1146.2 acres with this appropriation. In addition 19 RIM-WRP easements, totaling 2,239 acres were funded.  These restored wetlands and native grassland complexes will provide critical habitat for migratory waterfowl and other wetland dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wetlands and adjacent grasslands provide habitat for waterfowl, pheasants, deer and non-game species, some that are threatened or endangered. As of 8/21/18 9 easements have been restored and 17 are in the restoration process. BWSR and the NRCS are committed to seeing all restorations through to ensure all sites provide beneficial habitat. Due to delays with easement processing, restoration was also delayed in several cases.  BWSR is held to the statutory requirement that requires restoration of the easements we acquire. This restoration includes establishment of acceptable vegetation, if the current cover does not adequately meet site goals. Note that due to LSOHC database architecture and migration of this old project into the ""new"" LSOHC database amended goals are not reflected in the ""original"" budget and output columns of this final report.     ",2012-07-01,2014-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tim,Koehler,BWSR,"520 Lafayette Rd.

10031112,"The Hmong Minnesota Veterans of the Secret War Preservation Project",2022,79140,"MN Laws 2021, First Special Session Chapter 1, Article 4, Section 2, Subdivision 8 (d)","2022-2023 Cultural Heritage and Community Identity Grants - Winter 2021","The stories of 70 Hmong veterans will be formally documented with accompanying archival materials.The finished contents in the form of completed documentation will be developed into educational materials and archived in order to be available and accessible to the Hmong community and to mainstream audiences of students, educators, researchers, and the general public. Knowledge of Hmong people plays an integral part to understanding the diverse social, cultural, and identity that defines Minnesota. This Project will serve as an ideal, grassroots model for new Minnesotans to collect, record, and preserve their stories. ","In this Interim Report, The Hmong Minnesota Veterans of the Secret War Preservation Project is still an ongoing project. In March 2022, our SGU veteran's organization received notification from the MN Humanities Center (MHC) for being a recipient of the $75,000. In our application, we had identified our start date for the Project as early as April/May 2022. Although we completed the necessary paperwork, the MHC funding did not come to the SGU veteran's organization until August 2022. A second payment was delayed until Jan. 2023. These delays have significantly affected the desired goals (and outcomes) as outlined in SGU's proposed timeline. In June 2022, we had scheduled several Hmong SGU veterans to be participants in the Project. Our organization did not receive the funding from the MHC for SGU to contract with the 3HmongTV studio to conduct the interviews (as outlined in the application). As a result, their scheduled interviews were canceled. We did not schedule any interviews or attempt to schedule any interviews for fear of more cancellations without financially securing the studio. These cancellations were already detrimental; further cancellations would affect the overall trust of the community and the integrity of the Project. Since receiving the grant from the MHC in August 2022 until now, SGU has completed the following: We have conducted more than 17 interviews and intend to wrap up the remaining 8 (total 25) interviews by the end of April 2023. The contracts for transcribing of the interviews and for curating the exhibit developed as a result of the Project are in progress. We contracted a local musician to compose music and soundtrack for the Project exhibit.; The Hmong Minnesota Veterans of the Secret War Preservation Project was the first work of its kind for the SGU organization to collect and preserve the stories of at least 30 Hmong veterans and their widows. In this respect the Project has preserved and honored the cultural heritage of Minnesota and simultaneously empowered the Hmong community in strengthening its identity and culture. Plus, this growing archive will provide educational resources on cultural heritage and support future development of culturally diverse humanities programming here in the state and abroad. Originally, this Project was to document and archive 70 participants with the specific funding SGU requested from the MHC in its application. This number was reduced to 30 due to the changes in the funding amount and a shortened grant period that were established through this grant. Also, this Project encountered difficulties in completing the original goal of videotaping 30 stories. The challenges involved the unpredictable health issues and aging of these veterans, extensive time required to arrange, organize, and complete filming of each of the Project's interviews, including and associated tasks of rescheduling. Despite these challenges, SGU was able to create a substantial body of work of 21 stories that inspired the initial audience and raised expectations for further sharing and additional documentation and production. These collected oral stories provided tangible and inspiring evidence of the contributions, courage, and sacrifice of generations of Hmong fighters during the Secret War. In so doing, through the initiation of this archive, SGU was able to increase the morale and pride of the Hmong veterans, their families, and members of the organization. For example, at the final program, there were more students than veterans and elders in attendance. Two new generations of Hmong Minnesotans have been born since 1975. They and many members of the general public still know very little about the Hmong and Hmong history, including the contributions that Hmong veterans made to the U.S. prior to their arrival in this country and following their resettlement. The reasons are obvious. The Secret Warwas not well known in the U.S. when the Hmong first arrived. Survival and the task of raising families in the new society consumed the first generation of Hmong. Traumatic memories are overwhelming and personal. They are painful to relive in their retelling. Thus, these stories from the Secret War'' have remained largely untold for over 45 years. As a result, the younger generations of Hmong often are unaware of their cultural history and the ramifications of war and resettlement that affect the community even today. At the conclusion of the program, two middle school-aged Hmong students described their take awayas being proud to learn the sacrifices their grandfather had made that brought them to Minnesota. Another veteran brought his two adult children to the program. They expressed admiration and appreciation for their father's service during the war. Acknowledging the great sacrifices and trauma experienced in the Secret War is a critical step in helping the Hmong community heal from the intergenerational trauma that continues to this day. SGU saw the human value of this work. The SGU Board and Advisors that were present at the final program were inspired by the attendees' aspiration to learn more about their history and stories. An attendee, who lost his father in the war, conveyed to the organization his willingness to help. He stated that these stories are important to educate future Hmong students about their past . Although smaller similar archives of recorded SGU veterans' stories exist, this work has contributed significantly to this larger humanitarian cause. Additionally, the oral stories that were able to be preserved through this Project represented a fraction of the stories of veterans and widows that still exist in the community. SGU board members expressed their desire that the organization must do more to collect, preserve, and record these stories. MN State Representative Leon Lillie, chair of the House Legacy Committee who attended the program, shared that he and his colleague at the MN Legislature are open to supporting such projects. Furthermore, at the final program, there were small conversations among the participants and attendees. Several of the Hmong, who were born and grew up in MN, at the program learned that some participants in this Project are life-long public servants and community, clan, and church or spiritual leaders.

Contact: grants@mnhs.org","The early response to ""The Breeding Birds of Minnesota"" has been overwhelmingly positive. I have been told by many bird lovers (individual donors and contributing photographers with whom I've personally shared the book) that they are ecstatic about its beauty. The metrics bear this out. Since its release in April 2024, the book has sold 1,320 copies, approximately 1/4 of the print run. The book launch event at Bell Museum in May 2024 was attended by approximately 165 people, and a Duluth event later in the month was filled to capacity (75). The book has also received extensive press coverage in the Star Tribune (""a huge, gorgeous look at where Minnesota birds like to hang out ... Given the wealth of detail offered about each [bird], it reads almost like a hook-up site for our feathered friends""), MPR, the KAXE Morning Show, Northern Naturalist, Minnesota Conservation Volunteer, Laura Erickson's For the Birds radio program, the Duluth News Tribune (this piece was re-run in the Pioneer Press), Agate Magazine, WTIP radio, the Minnesota Ornithologist Union Newsletter, and elsewhere. The positive reception of the book has resulted from years of work by the authors and their assistants, the generosity of contributing photographers who donated their work to the project, the copyeditors and University of Minnesota Press staff who worked on the project, and before that all of the partners and volunteers who worked on the survey project. Audubon Minnesota, a partner on the survey project and the book, was also a key factor in the book's early success, as they promoted the book to their mailing lists and presented a webcast with authors Pfannmuller and Niemi in June 2024.

He has diligently identified and contacted African Americans who played baseball in Minnesota and the nearby states in the first half of the twentieth century or their descendants and interviewed them. In addition, he has received from these participants photos, game score cards, and other baseball memorabilia that document who played Minnesota Black Baseball, where the games were played, how the teams were organized, and how they did on the diamond. Many of these photos and artifacts have not been shared outside these families and will be a significant contribution to the public record of Minnesota Black Baseball when the book is completed. Mr. White has also scoured the microfilm files of the African American newspapers published in Minnesota during these years to piece together more information on these many little-known African American ballplayers. The short-term objective of completing a manuscript was only 71% complete during the grant period. However, at the time of this writing it is clear that this objective will be 100% complete in the very near term. Mr. White is in high demand as a speaker and consultant on the history of Black Baseball. This reality has brought him into contact with additional resources but has also slowed the writing of the manuscript. As of 1/1/14 two chapters remained incomplete. He is, however, committed to doing the work of writing these chapters and as of the submission date of this report has completed acceptable drafts of those two chapters. All expenses and time incurred after the end date of the grant period is being contributed by Mr. White and is not reliant on grant funds.

CECs can cause adverse ecological and human health impacts, and occur as complex mixtures in the environment. One of the greatest barriers to addressing the problem of CECs is a lack of understanding of where these compounds come from and which sources dominate in different locations and at different times. We hypothesize that different land uses result in the presence of unique marker compounds, relative concentrations of compounds, and temporal occurrence patterns that will differentiate agricultural sources (crop and livestock production) from non-agricultural sources (residential septic, wastewater treatment effluent). These markers can be used to determine the comparative load of CECs to water, which can in turn be used to help policy-makers and stakeholders develop strategies to reduce their occurrence. The Zumbro River watershed in southeastern Minnesota provides a unique opportunity to study CECs because each of its sub-watersheds has a single dominant land use. We will use field data collected from each sub-watershed to develop a suite of markers for source discrimination and load determination. Ultimately, this “source signature” will be applied to other water bodies in the state for similar source characterization. This project will address three major objectives: - Determine what CECs are associated with specific land-uses - Identify indicator compounds to be used as a monitoring tool to determine sources and loads of CECs - Work with policy-makers to develop science-based recommendations for prevention, reduction, and remediation strategies",,"Work Plan",2010-07-01,2013-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund","In Progress",,,Deborah,Swackhamer,"U of MN","Water Resources Center, 173 McNeal Hall, 1985 Buford Ave","St. Paul",MN,55108,"(612) 625-0279",dswack@umn.edu,,"University of Minnesota ",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/understanding-sources-aquatic-contaminants-emerging-concern,,,,

This study had two objectives: 1) to document genetic diversity of wild rice populations; and 2) assess the usefulness of genetic information for the conservation of this important wild species in Minnesota. Results showed that genetic diversity of the populations in Minnesota is relatively high with a range of 0.37 to 0.73 in heterozygosity and a mean of 0.54. Hetereozygosity can range between 0.0 to 1.0 indicating that genetic diversity among wild rice populations is reasonably high.

Recent variable climate (dry periods, intense storms and floods) have brought heightened awareness by farmers, engineers, cities, and water managers of rainfall intensity (how fast) and duration (how long). Up to now, available summaries (done in the early 1960's) were based on relatively crude analyses of rainfall data collected through the 1950's. This project has updated precipitation intensities based on the compilation of hundreds of rainfall monitoring locations in and around Minnesota (including our neighboring Canadian and adjacent state partners) with continuous data collected through 2009 via a partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, National Weather Service (NOAA/NWS). State-of-the-art computer-based statistical procedures have generated summary information and maps with a resolution of 4 km by 4 km (or about 2.5 miles by 2.5 miles). NOAA required one contract with all 11 Midwest states (Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Iowa, Missouri, Colorado, Nebraska, and Kansas) with pass-through funding via the Pooled Highway Fund. All Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund dollars were expended by June 30, 2011 with additional funding provided by the Minnesota DOT being used to complete the final work components. This study has generated rainfall frequency estimates for durations from 15 minutes to 60 days and for average recurrence intervals from 1 to 1,000 years along with trend analyses. Final web-based products will be available in early 2012 due to delays associated with reducing huge amounts of data from about 1/2 of the contiguous United States. The results of this work are required for standard engineering practices associated with runoff routing, flood prevention and safe road & culvert designs - and will become part of our daily forecasts (""today's storm is called a hundred year event""). Project Results Use and Dissemination Precipitation frequency information is required for standard engineering practices for building new roads, highways, bridges, and developments so as to minimize flooding and for water quality treatment, agricultural and other watershed management purposes. This study has resulted in rainfall frequency estimates from 15 minutes to 60 day durations and for average recurrence intervals from 1 to 1,000 years. Data has been summarized in NOAA's nationally recognized standard engineering tables. New products have been developed for inclusion in GIS formats for a wide variety of computer-based applications and website distribution for watershed management purposes. Regional patterns and comparisons to old TP-40 rainfall frequency data will also be available. Project products will be freely available from the NOAA website www.nws.noaa.gov/ohd/hdsc, including reports, maps and spatial data with precipitation frequency estimates and downloads of digital files.

Measuring progress on this outcome proved challenging. Informal conversations with visitors indicated some progress toward this outcome. The race boats rather than the signage initiated the majority for these conversations. Demonstrated articulation of increased understanding of the significance of wood boats and racing came in the form of probing questions from visitors seeking more information. Questions often focused on hull design, how engines operate, advancements in engineering, and the races these boats competed in. These provided insights into the selection of boats for the 2020 exhibit and topics for gallery talks. Intermediate Term: Leadership at the museum begins to properly allocate time, budget, and staff resources to exhibits. This outcome was achieved. This is demonstrated by the museum?s reorganization of financial management tools to more accurately document exhibit expenses and provide a more solid basis for funding future exhibits. The 2020 Exhibits and Education budget is $20,000. The individual hired to fill the Director of Communications and Programs position has her Master?s degree in History with an emphasis in public history and museum studies as well as several years of experience working in museums. Hiring an individual with this educational background and museum experience was a priority for the Board of Directors. The benefits of this hiring decision, along with committee growing exposure to standard museum practices, are being realized in early exhibit planning for the 2020 and subsequent seasons. Long Term: Minnesotans have a better understanding of the history and significance of wooden boats and wooden boat racing association in our history. Visitors have increased trust in our museum as a professional institution and credible source of information. Working in cooperation with the Antique Boat Museum and the Land-o-Lakes Classic Boat Club, Dixie Baby, the race boat in the exhibit on loan from the Antique Boat Museum, was displayed at the Minneapolis Boat Show in January 2020. This collaborative effort exposed hundreds of Minnesotans to the history of race boats and the engineering and technological advancements they embody and the opportunity to visit Legacy of the Lakes Museum to learn more. We anticipate this public exposure and LOLM?s collaboration Land-o-Lakes Club will increase museum attendance in the coming season and beyond. The Land-o-Lakes Boat Club is a multi-state organization that featured the Golden Age Race Boats exhibit in their publication and promoted it through social media. Members? piqued interest in the exhibit and race boats as well as their pride in the Club?s affiliation with a museum with high quality exhibits will fuel word-of-mouth recommendations, which is how most visitors learn about and visit our museum.",,,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",9805,,"Dave Bortner, Elliot Christensen, Jack Driscoll, Dennis Gimmestad, Kevin Kopischke, Lowell Pickett, Bruce Pohlig, Terry Quist, Rose Shorma, Jon Steinbring, Sharon Stephan, Russ Sticha, Ben Vangsness, Jill Wagner, Carol Swenson, Fred Bursch, Jim Eidsvold, and Carl Mammel."," ","Minnesota Lakes Maritime Society","Non-Profit Business/Entity",,,"To conduct and prepare research for an upcoming exhibit on the history of wooden racing boats in Minnesota.",2018-12-01,2019-12-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Carol,Swenson,"Minnesota Lakes Maritime Society"," 205 3rd Avenue W, PO Box 1216 "," Alexandria "," MN ",56308,"(320) 759-1114"," carol@legacyofthelakes.org ",Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Historical Society",,"Statewide, Douglas",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/wooden-boats-exhibit-research-and-planning,"Visit https://www.mnhs.org/preservation/legacy-grants/advisory-committee","Visit https://www.mnhs.org/about/leadership",,No

This was accomplished because she had the experience with Word software, without extra training, to organize the information into sections of a book, e.g. Preface, Table of Contents, formatting, End Notes, Bibliography, and Index as she wrote the document. This greatly saved time. Also her career long experience in special education helped to quickly identify those facts that impacted this history, though time was taken to verify and source each one. And the previous oral histories helped to provide stories of personal interest pertinent to a period of time/change during the history. She did struggle with charts and tables because the information was so complex and interrelated. Taking the complex historic information and visualizing it succinctly into one page graphics continues to be a challenge. She subcontracted with Dr. Sharpe at the UM to assist as he has expertise in this area which was helpful. The charts still need further design - perhaps a professional layout designer can address this challenge in a future phase. Searching for appropriate early administrator/educator photos took extra time, though the end results exceeded her expectation. She found most photographs at the History Center by searching online, through numerous boxes by hand, and the newspaper archives. Others were obtained through Institution libraries and associations, e.g. the State Academy for the Blind and the Minnesota Administrators of Special Education.",,,"Available upon request.
