The Dakota County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) provides technical assistance and distributes Clean Water Funding (CWF) to leverage local funding through its time-proven Stormwater Retrofit Partnership (Partnership) cost share program. Between 2010 and 2012, eight LGUs in Dakota County used CWFs through this successful program to install 44 retrofit BMPs in 12 projects that provided treatment for 140 acres of urban drainage to reduce sediment by 10 tons, phosphorus by 64 pounds and stormwater volumes by 52 acre-ft. In this project, the Partnership will target additional retrofit projects using proven methods that match local water management plan priority sites with effective BMPs using ranking criteria that includes pollutant load modeling, benefits to receiving waters, cost benefit ratios, and site suitability. Based on documented past performance, target goals are to install up to 20 retrofit BMPs that provide treatment for at least 100 acres of urban drainage to reduce sediment by 6 tons, phosphorus by 40 pounds and stormwater volumes by 30 acre-ft. Priority will be given to target projects in areas with completed Total Maximum Daily Load studies and identified local water plans, and those identified using subwatershed analyses.

Over the course of the appropriation, we acquired 11 parcels for a total of 1,484.05 acres which exceeded our total acre goal of 1,220 acres by 264.05 acres.  Breaking down acres by ecological section we acquired 876 acres in the metro, 152 acres in the forest/prairie, and 456 acres in the prairie.  We have a balance of $52,798 that will be returned to the Fund despite exceeding our acre goals. In total, we under spent on our budget, over delivered on acre goals, and over delivered on match leverage received while using less personnel costs than proposed. ",,"The pressures from development, industry, and agriculture continue to mount on wildlife habitat within the farmland regions of Minnesota.  In fact, despite our collective investments in conservation, it is believed that many of the agricultural counties in Minnesota are continuing to experience a net loss of wildlife habitat.  This unfortunate reality is currently being exacerbated by conversion of lands expiring out of CRP.  Now, more than ever, is the time to accelerate our investments in permanently protected high quality public habitat complexes that will protect, maintain, and increase Minnesota’s wildlife populations.  In addition, being able to provide public areas for Minnesotans to hunt, trap, fish and otherwise recreate in the outdoors are urgent needs and is fundamental to ensure Minnesota’s outdoor heritage and appreciation of the outdoors is passed on to future generations. To help slow and reverse the loss of habitat and declining wildlife populations, Pheasants Forever (PF) and our partners have protected (fee acquisition from willing sellers) 1,484.05 acres of high priority grassland (native prairie if available), wetland, and wildlife habitat as state Wildlife Management Areas (WMA) throughout the pheasant range of Minnesota.  Striving to build landscape level habitat complexes that will protect and sustain wildlife populations, many of the potential projects are additions to existing WMAs or WPAs, many of which were originally acquired in partnership with MNDNR, local PF chapters, and conservation partners. Projects were developed and selected in conjunction with local and regional DNR staff.  All projects will meet standards and requirements for inclusion into the WMA system and DNR Commissioner approval will be received for any project funded under this proposal.  In addition to meeting the minimum WMA standards, additional criteria were used to develop the potential project list including: Does the parcel contain habitat restoration potential that will result in an increase in wildlife populations? Does the parcel build upon existing investments in public and private land habitat (landscape scale significance)? Does the parcel contain significant natural communities or will it protect or buffer significant natural communities? Does the parcel have the potential and focus for habitat protection and restoration in the future? Does the parcel provide multiple benefits (recreation, access, water control, water quality, lakeshore, local community support etc.)? All acquired lands will meet the minimum initial development standards for WMAs.  In addition, providing high quality habitat and keeping future management concerns in mind, all acquisitions will be restored and/or enhanced to as high quality as practicable, with the belief that quality and comprehensive restorations utilizing native species result in lower management costs.  Acquired croplands will be permanently retired and restored to diverse grasslands and wetlands to the fullest extent.  Enhancement work may include undesirable woody vegetation removal, water control structure installation, inter-seeding to increase diversity and structure, managed grazing, invasive species control, or any other activity that improves the diversity and health of the prairie-wetland habitat complex.  Pheasants Forever’s network of 76 Minnesota chapters and 26,000 members have been actively involved in protecting and restoring lands in partnership with the Minnesota DNR for 27 years and will continue to be a priority.  WMA’s are an integral component to the comprehensive conservation strategy within the prairie region of the state.  The WMAs within this proposal will not only protect, increase, and sustain wildlife habitat and populations; they will provide access and recreational opportunities, including hunting, to ALL Minnesotans, so fundamentally important to our outdoor heritage.  ",2013-07-01,2017-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Eran,Sandquist,"Pheasants Forever","410 Lincoln Ave S.","South Haven",MN,55386,763-242-1273,esandquist@pheasantsforever.org,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Brown, Carver, Cottonwood, Jackson, Le Sueur, Lincoln, Martin, McLeod, Mower, Murray, Pipestone, Renville, Stearns, Stevens","Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/accelerating-wildlife-management-area-program-phase-5,,,,

",,"The loss of grassland and wetland habitats in Minnesota is well documented.  One of the primary ways to reverse this downward trend is to permanently acquire and restore previously converted wetland and grassland habitats on those properties. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and their partners have been employing this strategy for over 50-years with the Small Wetlands Acquisition Program (SWAP). This acceleration program acquired and restored 205.77 acres of wetland and 1,035.02 acres of grassland habitats which are now permanently protected as Waterfowl Protection Areas managed by the Service. Using landscape level planning tools [e.g. Thunderstorm Maps produced by the Service’s Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET)], Pheasants Forever (PF) has acquired these strategically identified properties. Based on HAPET evaluation strategies, modeling predictions can be made on the numbers of nesting waterfowl, grassland nesting birds, and other wildlife the acres affected by this grant application will produce.  Besides the obvious wildlife benefits the lands acquired through this grant will provide additional water quality, groundwater recharge, and flood abatement benefits. These strategies are well tested and are supported by the greater conservation community here in Minnesota. Hunting and fishing stakeholders are very interested in increasing opportunities for hunting and fishing public access and have used WPA’s extensively in the past. To address concerns related to the erosion of county tax revenues due to public land, the Service and PF notified counties prior to acquisition of lands. Once acquired, the Service will make a one-time Trust Fund payment to the County where the property is located.  In addition, the Service will make annual Refuge Revenue Sharing payments for all fee lands within the respective Counties.   ",2013-07-01,2017-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,"Eran ",Sandquist,"Pheasants Forever","410 Lincoln Ave","South Haven",MN,55382,763-242-1273,esandquist@pheasantsforever.org,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Big Stone, Blue Earth, Clay, Jackson, Kandiyohi, Lac qui Parle, Lyon, Mahnomen, Murray, Rice, Stearns, Wright","Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/accelerating-waterfowl-production-area-program-phase-5,,,,

We will identify barriers to participation in high quality art activities, describe our tools to overcome the barriers, and include a written survey to assess. The barriers to citizens in our region include the following: distance, access, cost, quality, isolation, time, and feeling not invited/not involved. Our tools to combat these complex and real issues are the following: Distance—hold workshop where people live and make it possible and reasonable to attend and return home at night or stay overnight (60 mile radius). Access—advertise to a varied group of potential participants including using local newspapers, local radio stations, Minnesota Public Radio (aimed at a different level of literacy), on-line regional writing groups, previous participants (past 3 years), direct invitations, Facebook, Big Stone Arts website, and Big Stone Art Council one on one invitations. Registration will be on-line, phone, and snail mail to accommodate the comfort level of potential participants. Quality—we have two high quality presenters who will address writers at the level of ability they designate. Students will have access to both presenters at the final presentation on Sunday as well as at the informal dinner on Saturday evening and the free public reading on Friday evening. Cost—charge a very reasonable fee for 1.5 days of instruction and guided practice as well as 3 meals, 2 light breakfasts, and two coffee breaks. Provide discounted rate for traditional student age (22 and younger) and senior citizen age (65). Isolation—build relationships at all the events with special emphasis on how do we continue to stay connected and write and share writing? We plan to organize scheduled gatherings during the year and make available participants emails and phone numbers to the group if they choose to engage in that exchange. Survey as a tool to empower participants—we will ask for anonymous input as well as suggestions for future workshops and ask for new volunteers to step forward to continue to keep the annual writer's workshop a reality.","There was 80-100% agreement that the instructors and their topics were thorough and useful and appropriate. 50% indicated need for space that was warmer and less noisy, and 100% liked the beautiful setting. 15 participants said they would help with the next workshop. 1 person asked for more scholarships next year. The distance from Ortonville ranged from 0-140 miles with several at 20 miles and 90 miles. There were many excellent ideas suggested for future workshops.

The achievement of goal one (1) will be self-evident. To measure goal two (2) we will provide a sign-in sheet for those in attendance at the Dakota Women’s Gatherings so that we may have a record of attendance. After sharing the CD and allowing an opportunity for those in attendance to hear the CD, we will have an evaluative discussion about the project, recording the results of those for inclusion in the final report to Southwest Minnesota Arts Council. Questions we might ask include: What is your response to hearing these songs? What do they bring to mind? Why are these songs important? How might they help you? And, how might you use them in the future? To measure goal three (3), we will include an evaluative survey in CDs we send out to organizations, institutions, libraries, and individuals outside the Dakota community. That survey is attached below.","For the community responses provided during the CD-Release events, we took notes of the feedback as each individual spoke. This allowed us immediate feedback from everyone in attendance and was extremely useful and uplifting to know that this project was having a positive impact on people in our communities. Those who took the time to respond to the CD evaluation survey believed it to be of great value and benefit. For example, one treatment center believed that using the CD to help ground one of their Native American female clients in her culture helped to alleviate her cravings, triggers, and stress. Libraries in Madison, Dawson, and Minneota felt the project would give their patrons an introduction to music they had not heard before and that it would open doors to understanding and appreciation of Dakota culture.

26270,"Artist in Residency",2014,2735,"Laws of Minnesota 2013, Chapter 137, Article 4, Section 2, Subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access ACHF Arts Education","The children will learn types of lines that make a drawing (straight, curved, angled) and recognize elements of circles and dots then use these art words in creating 3 specific drawings. By thinking of the types of lines they will learn an approach to the challenge of putting marks on their paper to represent something that they see and know but that they may not have attempted to draw before. Opposite concepts that the preschool teachers have previously taught during the year will be included (ex above/below, up/down, big/small, far/near, in/out) in the drawings then the children will identify the parts of their drawings that illustrate this. A drawing of a turtle character from the preschool social emotional curriculum will support teachers work with the children and motivate children to try a familiar fun subject. The children will have experienced an effective problem-solving technique of breaking down a large project into smaller pieces so the task does not seem as daunting. This will happen at every stage as we look at smaller parts of the drawing to see how the lines were made, and see that thinking of it as little bits at a time will calm worries they may have that the drawing may be too hard. Success will be evident in the completion of each drawing, as children will be able to point to straight lines, curved lines, etc., as well as things that are opposites that were included in their work (inside/outside, above/below etc.). Their work creating drawings that closely resemble the animal and surroundings will also be a strong measure of their success learning the concepts presented. Each teacher will have her unique input for other concepts to be included in the four drawing lessons which will match her particular class curriculum plan.Pairing drawing with the different curriculum areas naturally lends itself to survey and observation of the children's work to determine if learning has taken place. There will be many samples of student work that will point to a successful project and goals met. The children will be asked to show the things they have drawn that are opposites: above/below, inside/outside, etc. the primary focus of their drawings. They will be able to describe their choices of appropriate additions to the drawings and why they were chosen and drawn. They will choose their two favorite pieces of work to exhibit at a Student Art Gallery, and they will be able to tell why the pieces are their favorites, and to point to specific areas and describe what is important about them. This will also give the students a chance to talk about their work to their parents, as it is important to them when they have their work displayed in a careful manner, as grown up artwork would be also. Another impact of this residency will be that the 5 Early Childhood Family Education Preschool teachers will learn from Mary Ellen the resident artist, how to teach preschool children how to draw in developmentally appropriate ways using the methods Mary Ellen presents with children. See supporting material pdf of child showing his drawing from spring 2013 TARP drawing lesson where you can see how he drew the arm of the animal inside the body shape and another arm outside; also the panda subject matches the class' focus on a field trip to a Zen Shorts play, hearing the Zen Shorts stories read in class previously, using bamboo blocks, seeing panda and bamboo pictures in the classroom, and watching a panda cam live video of pandas etc. This shows how the drawing lessons can accomplish the goals planned by extending and enriching the teacher planned curriculum.","All children were taught drawing concepts that included ""lines: thick and thin, angled, dots and circles,"" positions of ""above, below, next to,"" they had 4 drawing lessons and drew animals based on their preschool field trips or social emotional curriculum ex sheep from the farm or ""Twiggles the turtle"" then had an art gallery for families and friends where they exhibited their ""best"" drawing.

This has reversed habitat loss, improved watershed function, and increased access to public lands. ",,"The Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Complex Phase III program acquired 496 acres of high-quality wetland, remnant Big Woods forest, and shoreline habitat for fish, game and wildlife in the Cannon River watershed located within Rice County. Protection of four large complexes - Koester Prairie (Prairie Creek WMA), Circle Lake (Circle Lake WMA), Erin Township (Big Woods Heritage WMA), and Wells Township (Sunktokeca WMA) provide new opportunities for public hunting, fishing, and wildlife observation. Located just south of the Twin Cities metro in an area that has seen development pressure due to the close proximity of the Twin Cities, I-35 and the Upper Cannon Lakes, the Cannon River watershed has already suffered fragmentation and habitat loss. Historically inhabited by Big Woods, the landscape is now dominated by agricultural fields and, to a lesser extent, development. Agricultural practices and shoreline development are also the major contributors to the impaired status of stretches of the Cannon River and its associated lakes and streams. The Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Complex Phase III program was designed to address the following problems: degradation and loss of quality and diversity of habitat in the prairie section of the State, degradation of water quality in the Cannon River Watershed; and lack of available public lands for hunting and angling opportunities, especially within an hour's drive for over half of the state's population. The Phase III program is a part of a multi-year conservation effort, focusing on the Cannon River watershed, that includes acquisition, protection, and restoration of core parcels of land that will contribute to a large complex of restored prairies, grasslands, wetlands, lakeshore, and river shoreline. The Phase III acquisitions were prioritized toward protecting existing large wetland/upland complexes, rare communities (Big Woods forest, oak savanna, tamarack swamp), and shallow lakes. In addition, landowner willingness to sell and the threat of conversion were also taken into consideration. Protection of these lands provides critical habitat for game species, including migratory waterfowl (mallards, canvasback, wood ducks, hooded mergansers, pintails, lesser scaup), upland birds (dove, turkey, pheasant, and woodcock), white tail deer, and fish (northern pike, black crappies, bluegills, bullheads and walleye). Protection will also provide access for a diversity of recreational experiences including duck, pheasant, turkey and deer hunting, lake fishing, and wildlife observation. In addition, restoration work conducted by the MN DNR has been focused on the degraded portions of the lands acquired and has included restoration of agricultural fields near wetlands and lakes back to native habitat. Four acquisitions were completed with Phase III funding: 1. Koester Prairie (Prairie Creek WMA)  (Rice County) The Trust for Public Land acquired Koester Prairie and conveyed this 460 acre property to the DNR on December 20, 2013 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. This property contains approximately 327 acres of rolling grassland, prairie, and oak savanna that are associated with Prairie Creek and its tributaries and that directly buffer approximately 133 acres of rare and highly significant native prairie. Over forty native upland prairie species have been documented here as well as a number of sedge meadow and wet prairie species. The dry oak savanna found on the property is also extremely rare, with only 13 occurrences of this type documented in the state. The site is known to locals as being the biggest and best birding area in the county. Bird Species in Greatest Conservation Need utilizing this site include: Swainson’s Hawk, Upland Sandpiper, Red-headed Woodpecker, Grasshopper Sparrow, and Bobolink.  The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $1,885,000 using $1,032,507 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase II (ML 2012 OHF; allocated acreage 200), and also $652,493 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 127), and RIM funding of $200,000 (133 acres). 2. Circle Lake (Circle Lake WMA) (Rice County) The Trust for Public Land acquired the Circle Lake property on June 23, 2016 and conveyed the 166 acre property to the DNR on March 10, 2017 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. Located directly on the north shore of Circle Lake in Rice County, this new WMA consists of high quality emergent marsh habitat as well as upland grass knolls. This site protects habitat for a wide varietly of waterfowl and wildlife, specifically including colonial waterbirds and Blanding's turtles. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $711,000 using $339,316 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 79), and also $371,684 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase IV (ML 2014 OHF; allocated acreage 87). 3. Erin Township (Big Woods Heritage WMA (Rice County) The Trust for Public Land acquired the Big Woods Heritage property on June 23, 2016 and conveyed the 130 acre property to the DNR on March 10, 2017 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. Located north of Shields Lake, the headwaters of the Cannon River, this new WMA comprises both rolling upland mixed forest and wetland habitat. The native plant community of Southern Mesic Maple-Basswood Forest is found on this property and it will provide new publicly accessible outdoor experiences including ample hunting opportunities for waterfowl, deer, pheasant and turkeys. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $520,000 using $248,164 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 62), and also $271,836 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase IV (ML 2014 OHF; allocated acreage 68). 4. Wells Township (Sunktokeca Creek WMA) (Rice County)  The Trust for Public Land acquired the Sunktokeca Creek property on June 23, 2016 and conveyed the 199 acre property to the DNR on March 10, 2017 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. Located just northwest of Faribault, this new WMA protects diverse, high quality emergent marsh habitat, supports a wide variety of waterfowl and wildlife, and provides new publically accessible outdoor experiences within an hour of the Twin Cities including quality hunting opportunities’ for waterfowl, deer, pheasant and turkeys.  The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $1,040,000 using $496,327 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 95), and also $543,673 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase IV (ML 2014 OHF; allocated acreage 104).

It seeks to increase its audience base, to strengthen its board and organizational structures, to improve and launch a fund-raising initiative, and to continue growing artistically. An award of Community Arts Support funds from the Central Minnesota Arts Board would help Great River Chorale achieve the following specific, measurable outcomes in the 2014-15 concert season: participation in two performances of choral-orchestral music as the principal choral partner of the Saint Cloud Symphony Orchestra; a collaborative holiday concert with two area youth choirs and guest instrumentalists; a collaborative concert with members of a regional dance company in a spring concert; presentation of an outreach concert for members of a central Minnesota community that may not otherwise have access to Great River Chorale's regular season programming; a fall 2014 professional recording and CD production project to promote awareness of Great River Chorale through radio airplay and sales to the public; increased and improved member and community participation in fundraising efforts; heightened public awareness of Great River Chorale through improved use of social, for profit, and public media outlets; implementation of an email marketing service to create a newsletter and to improve communications with members, former members, patrons, donors, advertisers, and supporters; to purchase a data maintenance software program; to recruit skilled singers and attract audiences from central Minnesota through continued programming of high quality music of varying styles and genres from different eras and cultures, and by providing a satisfying artistic experience of the highest caliber.We will evaluate the broad community success of Great River Chorale’s two public concert productions for the coming season by measuring the following: income generated from multiple sources (tickets sales, concert sponsorship, grant awards, program advertisements sales, Great River Chorale holiday albums sales); media coverage from multiple sources (articles, interviews and radio airplay); and verbal and written feedback from our patrons and collaborative participants. Individual revenue areas will be reviewed and compared to data from the previous three seasons to determine if there was an increase in ticket sales, corporate sponsorships, program ad sales, and holiday album sales, and thus an increase in community engagement. A similar comparison will evaluate whether media coverage is increasing, thereby increasing recognition and enhancing the ensemble’s reputation. Great River Chorale will continue to explore and refine data capturing methods in order to increase measurable data collected from our patrons, members, donors, collaborative partners and the larger community. This will include physical surveys, electronic surveys, personal interviews, and direct requests through e-newsletters and the Great River Chorale website. As we move forward in our plans for growth, we will review all available data periodically in order to make informed decisions for our future. In addition, Great River Chorale will continue to review constructive, qualitative feedback from our patrons and artistic collaborators in order to provide a narrative for our data that demonstrates the merit of our programming in terms of quality of musical performance. The proposed professional recording project and CD production is intended to increase revenue through sales to the public and recognition through track selection for radio airplay. Analysis of CD sale revenue and media coverage will measure the success of this endeavor. The success of Great River Chorale’s additional fund raising efforts will be measured through increased member participation in fundraising campaigns, an increase in individual, corporate and member donations, increased advertising sales, and an increase in donations on Minnesota’s Give to the Max Day 2014. Efforts to improve communications with our community will be measured through analytics provided by an email marketing service, social networks, and public media outlets where applicable. The purchase of a software program designed for nonprofit organizations will provide improvement in data management. Success will be measured in time saved by a significant simplification of processes for data projects (freeing up more time for other goals) and a decrease in returned mail.","Two fine collaborative concerts and one outreach concert were produced.

The expanded audience for these concerts plus the nursing home concerts and high school outreach concerts should reach multiple demographics--elderly, who enjoy our concerts because the concerts stir fond memories, as well as their children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren who may be exposed to wind ensemble music for the first time and hopefully creating memories to pass on to future generations. We have also been attracting people of non-European heritage to concerts, and hope to expand the race and ethnic origins of our patrons as well. Having celebrated the 125th Anniversary of the Saint Cloud Municipal Band two years ago, we hope to continue to cultivate and expand community pride, which can be measured via attendance estimates as well as positive survey results. We strive for an average of 95% participation of musicians willing to play concerts, which demonstrates the enthusiasm that our musicians feel for the repertoire as well as for the conductor.To measure audience satisfaction, we include surveys in the programs provided at the Paramount, and pass them out during summer concerts and the nursing home concerts. Survey questions ask for zip codes to help estimate the market area of our patrons. We also ask musical preferences, success of marketing strategies, Contingency Valuation questions to try to determine the value the patrons place on the concert, as well as their potential ability to pay. The difference in these figures generally shows that the patron values the concert at a greater amount than they are willing or able to pay for the tickets, and this suggests that our music is indeed a local public good, and that tax funds are well spent to support this activity. Finally we ask demographics such as age and gender as well as comments. With such surveys, we can do cross-tabulations and using Chi-Square tests and other nonparametric statistical analyses, we can determine if there are statistically significant differences between the audience demographics and answers to the other questions. We not only take attendance at each practice and concert, but informally, we experience the excitement and buzz at the recital hall as the numbers of musicians staying after the concerts to chat with audience members expands.","Fiscal Year 2014 goals were to expand our audiences and to demonstrate performers' enthusiasm for our repertoire and conductor. Surveys of attendees suggested we met these goals. We notice audiences of non-white concert goers, young attendees, and families. Solid retention rate of performers for each concert, as well as feedback from surveys suggest enthusiasm for the repertoire and conductor.

Fifty (50) Central Minnesota high school and middle school choral directors will be reached with new audition materials for themselves and their school choirs in anticipation of our annual spring auditions which we hope will bring in more singers. Because of an improved recruitment campaign, seventy-five (75) copies of a new promotional video will be made and will be expected to reach the 50 area middle school and high school choral directors as well as prospective corporate and private donors in order to fulfill board goals of marketing and development. Two outreach sessions will be conducted with current choir members to elicit viewpoints on community outreach and ways of increasing visibility in the community. With these grant funds, the Artistic Staff will also look to increase the number of singers in the Leadership Team groups from four (4) to six (6). Adding an office intern to help with smaller day-to-day office tasks will help the Executive Director reduce the amount of hours spent on administrative tasks like creating labels mailings, and focus more on larger, strategic activities.Conducting a Women’s Choir Festival will meet a need in the community as there are currently no all-day women’s choir festivals for high school girls in Central Minnesota. We will evaluate the success of this festival by singer attendance, participation in sectionals and group rehearsals (both directors and singers), size of audience and ticket sales at the end-of-festival concert, and using online and paper formats to survey festival participants. We can continue to evaluate our two ensembles by the number of registered auditions. As our current singers have positive experiences while being a part of the Youth Chorale, they are ambassadors to others in their schools, all while promoting an interest in Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota. Middle School and High School directors will receive updated audition materials to distribute to their choral programs. Our new promotional video will be distributed with these packets and will also be used for Development purposes such as for a speaker’s bureau and when meeting with potential private and corporate sponsors. We can evaluate the effectiveness of this video by the number of new sponsors. Singers have expressed an interest in more outreach opportunities during the season. These outreach sessions will give the Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota Board and Staff and idea of what our singers would like to do in the community, from singing at local nursing homes to collecting food for the local food shelf. The Board and Staff will discuss what options are viable and proceed with making connections based on singers’ viewpoints. Evaluation of this process will include interviewing singers beforehand, surveying them afterwards, and observing whether our goal for outreach and more visibility elicits more collaborations and/or gain audience recognition. The Artistic Staff will establish a clear structure for the Student Leadership Team that meets regularly, is sustainable, and assists in organizational development. Increased interaction and shared experiences between all members of varied singing abilities will take place. The primary focus of the Student Leadership Team is to assist the conductors in making sure that their peers (singers) are satisfied with how the choir is functioning, as well as making sure that the choirs are operating cohesively. At the end of the season, we expect an increase in the number of Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota singers who wish to be a part of the Student Leadership Team. By adding a student intern to the office staff, the Executive Director will be able to focus on larger responsibilities that require more time. Also, the student intern can take on some concert preparation responsibilities like mailings or concert set-up, freeing up the Executive Director to spend more time getting volunteers settled or even greeting concert patrons without having to be spread thin at the events. At the end of the season, the Board and Executive Director will evaluate the time spent on projects compared with the past two years of not having extra help.","Choral Festival reached 85 female singers, 50 middle/high school choir directors, success evaluated by attendance, participation, audience size, online survey; DVD yielded 32 new singers, 3 corporate sponsors; Student Leadership Team grew to 5 members per choir; 200 in assisted living communities reached/large donations to food shelf as part of Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota outreach; student office assistant with leadership qualities helped manage concert logistics, allowed Executive Director to focus on larger-scale projects.",,,,10000,7263,"Joann Weber, David Tilstra, Mary Jo Bot, Chad Armstrong, Jennifer Butkowski, Karen Cash, David Paulson, Kara Rysavy, Andrew Walesch, James Wiant, Ethan Wittrock, Tammie Yapp",,"Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Art Support",,"Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota is a non-profit chorus for students in grades 9-12 from the Central Minnesota area, representing 21 different high schools and 21 communities.",2013-07-01,2014-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Paula,Heydman,"Youth Chorale of Central Minnesota","913 St Germain St W","St Cloud",MN,56301,"(320) 281-9226 ",pheydman@youthchorale.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Central Minnesota Arts Board",,"Stearns, Benton, Sherburne, Wright",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-art-support-14,"Chris Rasmussen: Minnesota Citizens for the Arts Board Member, College of Saint Benedict/Saint John's University Fine Arts Programming Advisory Council Member; Mike Carlson: Art Teacher, Fall Musical Director, Potter; John Stander: active in Minnetonka Center for the Arts; Janice Courtney: Arts Adviser/Assistant Director of the Saint Cloud State University Program Board; Helene Woods: Board Member of the Monticello Arts Council; Leslie Hanlon: Director of Fundraising and Marketing for the College of Saint Benedict/Saint John's University Fine Arts Series; Doug Lien: Watercolorist, Member of the Central Minnesota Watercolorists, Member of Artists of Minnesota, Community Education Art Class instructor.","Chris Rasmussen: Minnesota Citizens for the Arts Board Member, College of Saint Benedict/Saint John's University Fine Arts Programming Advisory Council Member; Mike Carlson: Art Teacher, Fall Musical Director, Potter; John Stander: active in Minnetonka Center for the Arts; Janice Courtney: Arts Adviser/Assistant Director of the Saint Cloud State University Program Board; Helene Woods: Board Member of the Monticello Arts Council; Leslie Hanlon: Director of Fundraising and Marketing for the College of Saint Benedict/Saint John's University Fine Arts Series; Doug Lien: Watercolorist, Member of the Central Minnesota Watercolorists, Member of Artists of Minnesota, Community Education Art Class instructor.",,No

20707,"Dakota County Habitat Protection/Restoration Phase 4",2014,4100000,"ML 2013, Ch. 137, Art. 1, Sec. 2, Subd. 5(b)","$4,100,000 in the first year is to the commissioner of natural resources for an agreement with Dakota County to acquire, restore, and enhance lands in Dakota County for fish and wildlife management purposes under Minnesota Statutes, section 86A.05, subdivision 8, or aquatic management area purposes under Minnesota Statutes, sections 86A.05, subdivision 14, and 97C.02, and to acquire permanent conservation easements and restore and enhance habitats in rivers and lake watersheds in Dakota County. Up to $60,000 is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund, as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. A list of proposed land acquisitions and permanent conservation easements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Restored 392 acres, protected 197 acres (in fee with state PILT liability), protected 214 acres (in easement) for a total of 803 Acres ",,2222200,"County ",4100000,,,1.3,"Dakota County","Local/Regional Government","During this grant time frame, Dakota County was able to protect habitat through acquisition of seven parcels, totaling 409 acres.  The fee title ownership of three of the parcels, totaling 197 acres, was transferred to the Minnesota DNR as part of establishing the new Hampton Woods Wildlife Management Area in Hampton and Castle Rock townships. Another notable acquisition was that of a 109-acre easement on a portion of the Grannis property in Inver Grove Heights, which when added to the original 17-acre easement, totals 126 acres that includes the southernmost and highest quality lake of the Marcott Lakes Chain. Additionally, when combined with the adjacent 103-acre Lindberg easement, provides a total protected area of 229 acres in Inver Grove Heights. As is typical for a voluntary land protection program, landowners don't always move forward with their projects for a variety of reasons; and eight projects that staff worked on were either withdrawn by the landowner, or the County completed them with Outdoor Heritage funding from another grant. Dakota County also completed a significant amount of restoration work within a variety of habitats, totaling 392 acres.  Restoration work was completed in areas including: the new Hampton Woods WMA; on the Grannis easement; and at three locations along the Vermillion River, among other locations.  This restoration work is ongoing. Dakota County's commitment to land conservation is reflected in one of four County Board Strategic Plan Goals: A healthy environment with quality natural areas. This commitment is recognized through annual County Board support (e.g., funding and staff resources) for land conservation programs, other environmental health and protection programs and initiatives, as well as the County Board's commitment to not only establish regional parks and County park preserves, but its commitment to restoring habitat within its park system. Through this commitment, County Land Conservation staff work with confidence and were able to achieve greater grant match support than anticipated, providing County grant-match funding and in-kind staff time totaling $732,300, $444,300 more than the original estimate of $288,000.  The extended length of time afforded to expend grant funding, per Section 2.1 of the grant agreement contributed greatly to this level of County grant-match. ",,"Through the Dakota County Land Conservation Program, the County has been protecting high-quality natural areas for wildlife habitat and improved water quality, outside its regional park system, since 2003. As with many conservation acquisition efforts during the term of this grant, modifications were made to accommodate evolving circumstances. As a result, Dakota County acquired four conservation easements that protected 212 acres of: wetlands (5 acres); Forest/Woodland (49 acres); Grasslands (24 acres); Cultivated land that was restored to natural vegetation (100 acres); Habitat (12 acres); and Open Water (22 acres). The County's voluntary program can be unpredictable. An application round is held each year to accept submittals for potential conservation easement projects. Project Prioritization Criteria are used to score and rank project applications. Some projects move through the process to closing, and some stall-out or are withdrawn by the landowner for a variety of reasons. The common, uncertain nature of a voluntary conservation program is why in future grants, the County extended the window of time to complete acquisitions, because sometimes it just takes more time to get to the closing. An extended acquisition timeframe will provide greater flexibility in completing projects. The County also successfully completed three natural area fee title acquisitions totaling 197 acres, establishing the first protected land within the new Hampton Woods Wildlife Management Area in Hampton and Castle Rock townships.  This historic woodland has stood for centuries and was used by settlers as a woodlot as surrounding areas were cultivated.  The County transferred ownership and management of the 197 acres of land to the Minnesota DNR.  More acquisitions are planned, with subsequent ownership transfer to the DNR within this new WMA. Regarding restoration efforts, the County successfully restored 390 acres, involving 16 parcels. The County requires not only Natural Resource Management Plans (NRMPs) for each natural area easement, but requires that landowners sign a Management Agreement (MA) that outlines restoration and maintenance activities, who is responsible for the work, and how each activity will be funded, using cost estimates from accepted contractor proposals. Restoration work involved parcels that include over 1 mile of shoreline. Restoration activities included: restoring agricultural land to natural vegetation; removing invasive species, like buckthorn; establishing test areas to determine the most effective way(s) to remove invasive species; and forest and prairie seeding to re-establish or enhance native species diversity.  The parcels restored supports populations of eagles, sandhill cranes, deer, eastern cottontail, wild fur-bearing game (fox, coyote, mink, and beaver), wild turkey, pheasant, wood duck, and other waterfowl. Restoration activities anticipate an increase in the populations of these and many other species, which will augment populations on the adjacent land. In addition, these restoration efforts anticipate more diverse populations of non-game species. Baseline populations will be monitored into the future.

Four fish passage projects opened up access to 180 miles of river and 13,521 acres of lake and wetland habitat. We enhanced habitat on 39 Aquatic Management Areas, totalling 1440 acres, through the efforts of four positions funded by this appropriation. It also funded two stream habitat positions that oversaw the completion of 23 DNR projects and over 50 partner-lead projects funded by various OHF sources. ",,"Stream projects were chosen based on the DNR's Stream Habitat Priority List, where projects are ranked based on a number of criteria surrounding support and outcomes. This appropriation funded nine stream projects, several of which involved external partners. Individual project details are listed below. - Solid Bottom Creek: This project addressed a steep, eroding stream bank along 500 feet of a designated trout stream.  The stream bank was a primary source of sedimentation within the stream, and likely contributed to a delta that is forming at the outlet of the stream in Elbow Lake.  Construction was completed in the spring of 2016, relocating the stream away from the tall eroding bank, stabilizing the toe of that bank by installing toe-wood structures, and enhancing pool habitat for trout that are stocked into the stream. - Whisky Creek: OHF funding from DNR was combined with a CPL grant to the City of Barnesville to fund the project.  Bids for the work came in under projected costs, which allowed the City to also remove another dam within city limits on Whisky Creek that was underneath a railroad bridge.  Work has been completed in 2015 on the modification of the dam at Blue Eagle Lake and the removal of the dam underneath the railroad bridge. This project restored fish passage to 31 miles of upstream habitat. -Minnesota River at Granite Falls: Construction of a riffle in the Minnesota River at Granite Falls was completed in December 2017. The project modified the remnants of an old dam made of rock into a riffle, enhancing spawning habitat that will be used by numerous fish species including lake sturgeon, walleye, and sauger. -Red Sand Lake outlet: The outlet structure on Red Sand Lake was modified to allow fish passage, with construction completed in June of 2018. The former drop structure within a culvert was replaced by a larger culvert with an arch-rapids upstream and downstream, and with natural substrate within the culvert. Fish passage between White Sand Lake, which lies downstream, Red Sand Lake, and wetlands in between will benefit Red Sand Lake, especially in the occasional year that it experiences a partial fish-kill due to low oxygen conditions. -South Branch Root River: This project was funded by the ML2013 and ML2014 DNR Aquatic Habitat appropriation. A 450 foot reach of the river was experiencing severe erosion, with the streambank losing over 10 feet per year. A riffle was constructed at the upstream end of the reach to direct flow, and a bankfull bench was constructed along the eroding bank using toe wood to enhance stability and fish habitat. The bench was vegetated with a native seed mix and willow live stakes. Construction was completed in August of 2018, with ML2013 funds only used for work completed prior to July 1, 2018. -Turtle River: DNR partnered with the US Forest Service, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and Beltrami County to replaced an undersized culvert that blocked fish passage. The project opened up 13,000 acres of lake and wetland habitat and 30 miles of river that was formerly inaccessible to fish downstream of the project. -Mississippi River at Weaver Bottoms: Former deepwater habitat in Goose Lake, a former floodplain lake on the Mississippi River had been filled with silt over several decades. This project dredged 9 acres back into deepwater habitat, and was completed in the fall of 2017. Dredge spoils from project excavation were stockpiled on land for drying and eventual spreading and revegetation on private land. The deepwater habitat is becoming rare on the river due to sedimentation, and is critical for over-wintering habitat for bluegill, crappies, and other fish species. This project was split between the ML2012 and ML2013 DNR Aquatic Habitat appropriations, and accomplished acres split proportional to the total cost contributed by each. -Middle Fork Zumbro River/Lake Shady: This appropriation funded a portion (along with the DNR's ML2013 Aquatic Habitat) of the restoration of the Middle Fork of the Zumbro River through a former impoundment known as Lake Shady. The dam had washed out in a 2011 flood, leaving behind an eroding mud flat that threatened to harm downstream reaches as it eroded, and contained poor habitat in the channels that had cut through the mud. The former dam site's grade was stabilized by creating a rapids of stable rock material, and within the former reservoir new stream channels with appropriate dimensions were constructed. Habitat in the new channels was restored to include woody material as well as rocky riffles. Re-vegetation of the surrounding reservoir sediments with native plant species will provide quality riparian and upland habitat as well. The project was completed in partnership with Olmsted County ($125,736), the city of Oronco ($83,824) and DNR Dam Safety bonding funds ($1,000,000) all contributing funding. An additional $236,540 of in-kind staff time was contributed by Olmsted County.  In addition to the 147 acres of habitat restored, the project opened up access to 119 miles of stream. Accomplished acres are split between the two OHF appropriations proportional to funds contributed. -Middle Branch Whitewater River: Construction began on this project in September of 2016. At that time, the new channel and floodplain were shaped prior to the end of the construction season. However, this project has run into issues with design that have prevented its completion to date. An outside consultant has been hired by DNR to provide a final design, with a new construction period in the summer of 2019 to complete the project. DNR received approval for an amendment that added this project to our ML2015 Aquatic Habitat appropriation, which will be used to pay for the remaining design and construction of this project. -Aquatic Management Area enhancement: Enhancement work on 39 different AMAs such as prescribed burns, riparian plantings, and invasive species control were done on 1440 acres of habitat. Locations were in all four LSOHC planning regions. This work was made possible by the four AMA habitat positions funded by this appropriation. AMA staff assessed habitat needs at 106 AMAs, and developed management guidance that identifies enhancement needs for those parcels. In addition to the 39 projects done using this appropriation, AMA staff were involved with 106 other Outdoor Heritage-funded AMA enhancement projects, and provided guidance for 23 similar projects being lead by external partners who were using OHF money. -Stream Habitat Specialist positions: Two specialists were hired to coordinate statewide stream habitat worked that was funded by OHF. These positions were responsible for both DNR projects, and assisting partner organizations with their projects. These positions upped the capacity for DNR to undertake multiple larger stream habitat projects, and to increase the quality of projects being done by partners. During the life of this appropriation, specialists participated in the design and construction oversight of 23 DNR stream projects, and provided assistance to over a dozen local partners on over 50 stream habitat projects funded by various OHF appropriations.   ",2013-07-01,2017-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Brian,Nerbonne,"Mn Dept of Natural Resources","500 Lafayette Road ","Saint Paul",MN,55155,651-259-5205,brian.nerbonne@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Aitkin, Becker, Beltrami, Big Stone, Blue Earth, Cass, Chippewa, Clay, Cook, Cottonwood, Crow Wing, Dakota, Douglas, Fillmore, Hubbard, Itasca, Jackson, Le Sueur, Lincoln, Martin, Meeker, Morrison, Otter Tail, Polk, Renville, Rice, Rock, St. Louis, Wabasha, Winona","Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Northern Forest, Prairie Region, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/dnr-aquatic-habitat-phase-v,,,,

The prescribed burn on Benderberg WMA triggered an excellent response in the native wet prairie remnant.  It was largely an after-thought at this was former pasture, but the presence of fire really benefitted the native plant community.  There was even some hand- harvest opportunity for species like wood lily.  Without the roving crew and the MarshTracker, an Rx burn on this site would not have been possible.  This was the first time much of this ground had seen a fire in over 4 decades.  The plan is to periodically maintain this WMA with fire going forward and to maintain/enhance the wet prairie community that so wonderfully responded to it the first time around. These funds were used to complete more than 50 acres of woody control projects on the Lake Bronson and Two Rivers Aspen Parkland Scientific and Natural Areas.  These projects were part of an ongoing multi-year strategy to combat the encroachment of woody vegetation into high quality native prairies.  In addition to setting back encroaching willows and aspen, the Lake Bronson SNA project appeared to have positive impacts on the sites population of western prairie fringed orchids (a Federally threatened species) as the second highest number of orchids ever recorded on the site were counted the spring following the project.   One untold stories is the cooperation between conservation agencies and NGOs in Minnesota.  In some states, feds don’t like the state, and the NGOs fight among themselves.  In Minnesota, we all get along really well.  This is evidenced in partnership efforts that developed the Prairie Plan and Pheasant Plan.  One early fear with OHF is that this would cause these groups to start bickering over the resource.  In fact, the exact opposite has happened.  It has pulled us together and increased cooperation.  One example of that is our collective seed harvest and grassland restoration efforts.  In at least two areas, most notably Detroit Lakes and the Glacial Lakes area, multiple agencies/NGOs are coordinating their seed harvest and restoration efforts.    Partners are looking 1 to 3 years ahead on restoration efforts.  Seed production is best on burned sites.  Partners are determining what units and what soil types they want to restore each year.  Then they find native tracts or high diversity restorations with similar soil types.  These sites are prioritized for burning in the spring.   Once the site is burned, partners again work together to harvest and store the seed in the fall.  The seed is then distributed to the DNR, USFWS, TNC or other partners.  The seed is spread on the sites in the late winter or early spring.  In some cases, agency/NGO staff are harvesting the seed.  In other cases, they work with local contractors to harvest the seed.   Harvesting local seed is both cost-effective and when harvesting native tracts ensures we, collectively, are using a diverse mix of local ecotype seed.   Again, the OHF has helped developed new partnerships and projects that would not have happened or that would have happened at a much smaller scale with these critical funds.   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.  In the same way, we proportionally assigned dollars to personnel based on FTEs.     ",2013-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Greg,Hoch,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Road ","St Paul",MN,55155,651-259-5230,greg.hoch@state.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Becker, Beltrami, Big Stone, Blue Earth, Brown, Clay, Cottonwood, Douglas, Faribault, Fillmore, Goodhue, Grant, Houston, Jackson, Kandiyohi, Kittson, Lac qui Parle, Lyon, Marshall, Martin, Nobles, Norman, Otter Tail, Polk, Pope, Redwood, Renville, Rice, Roseau, Sibley, Stevens, Swift, Traverse, Wabasha, Winona, Yellow Medicine","Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Prairie Region, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/dnr-grassland-phase-5,,,,

Additionally, twenty five Ojibwe and Dakota Elders Speakers will be engaged in the development of the curriculum ","Minnesota’s most enduring languages are in danger of disappearing. Without timely intervention, the use of Dakota and Ojibwe languages – like indigenous languages throughout the globe -- will decline to a point beyond recovery.These languages embody irreplaceable worldviews. They express, reflect, and maintain communal connections and ways of understanding the world. Deeper than the disuse of vocabulary or grammar, the loss of an indigenous language is destruction of a complex system for ordering the relationships among people and the natural world, for solving social problems, and connecting people to something beyond themselves. ","The project has two objectives that flow from the goals. Objective (1): to produce 2 Ojibwe and 2 Dakota interdisciplinary curriculum units for K-3rd grades that are aligned with Minnesota State Academic Standards for literacy/reading, numeracy/math and science by the end of the project year; Objective (2): to engage a minimum of 25 Ojibwe and Dakota Elder Speakers in all facets of the project over the course of the year from the development of the curriculum frameworks, to the ongoing review of written and digital curriculum, and final validation and endorsement of the curriculum prior to publication/release.

However, risks to water quality in these landscapes still remain, with rates of BMP implementation, harvesting patterns, and watershed characteristics influencing the potential for impacts to occur at any given time or place. Also, recent trends in forestland development and loss in Minnesota has increased the risk of impacts to water quality in forested landscapes. Evaluation of BMP implementation and quantification of risk factors by watershed, combined with effective outreach programs, will allow for continued utilization of working forests while maintaining functioning, healthy watersheds that produce clean water.

DNR formed a project advisory team (PAT) for each of these areas to provide advice and feedback during the GWMA planning process. The project advisory team includes cities permitted users business people conservation districts and other state agencies. DNR completed preliminary assessments of technical information and shared that information with the PAT’s over a series of monthly meetings. Discussions about potential actions are ongoing and will inform plan development. For complete information see the GWMAs webpage at http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/gwmp/areas.html ",,,,267151,62179,,2.5,,,"Minnesota’s use of groundwater has increased over the last two decades. An increasing reliance on groundwater may not be a sustainable path for continued economic growth and development. The DNR is establishing three pilot groundwater management areas (GWMA) to help improve groundwater appropriation decisions and help groundwater users better understand and plan for future groundwater needs associated with economic development. The three areas include: the North and East Metropolitan Region, which includes all of Ramsey and Washington Counties, and the southern portion of Anoka County; the second area includes the Straight River, near Park Rapids; and the third area includes portions of Pope, Stearns, and Kandiyohi counties, known as Bonanza Valley, which includes the towns of Glenwood, Brooten, Belgrade, Elrosa and other communities. Clean Water Funds are used to hire project managers, meeting facilitators and support stakeholder engagement to inform and advise the planning process.","Water is crucial to Minnesota’s economies and ecosystems. Minnesota has a well-deserved image of having abundant water resources, nevertheless, water is not evenly distributed across the state. Despite our popular image, water is becoming scarce in parts of Minnesota. Unprecedented water use conflicts are arising between businesses, towns, and residents. In most areas of the state, we are not yet in “crisis” mode when it comes to water availability. We have time to address these issues and ensure that Minnesota’s economies and ecosystems have adequate water supplies in the future. Each of the selected pilot Groundwater Management Areas has been experiencing increased use and reliance on groundwater to meet public or private needs. The purpose of a groundwater management area is to organize resources and people to better understand the risk of overuse and contamination in these areas, and to develop a plan that the Department of Natural Resources can implement to ensure sustainable use of water.

28531,"Lake Minnetonka Nautical Archaeology 2",2014,9245,"Laws of Minnesota for 2011 Chapter 6, Article 4, Subdivision 5, Statewide Historic and Cultural Grants.","Statewide Historic and Cultural Grants. $5,250,000 the first year and $5,250,000 the second year are for history programs and projects operated or conducted by or through local, county, regional, or other historical or cultural organizations; or for activities to preserve significant historic and cultural resources.","MHM short and intermediate term goals for this project were exceeded in every measurable way. MHM's primary goal for the Lake Minnetonka Nautical Archaeology 2 (LMNA-2) Project, a Phase 1 archaeological reconnaissance surveyer, was to examine specific wrecks and anomalies recognized through a sonar survey and determine their significance as submerged cultural resources. Of the 24 anomalies investigated, 11 were cultural resources and 13 were not. Of these, 1 wreck was understood to be a wreck but her identity as a capsized pontoon boat was confirmed, 9 new wrecks were confirmed, 4 wrecks were designated as archaeological sites-including 1 wreck discovered in MHM's LMNA-1 Project earlier in 2013-and 2 maritime cultural resources were identified. Of these two resources, 1 of them was designated as an archaeological site. All the resources were rudimentarily documented for future study and where appropriate, for possible designations as nautical archaeological sites in the future. One significant outcome is the ability to keep re-prioritizing the remaining nearly 100 anomalies left to investigate on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka. Based on the negative results produced from diving on Anomalies 3, 102, and 103 during the LMNA-1 Project, and Anomalies 10 and 58 during this project specifically, MHM now has new short, intermediate, and long-term priorities for future diving in the lake. This knowledge also extends to anomalies located in Lake Waconia and White Bear Lake. The goal of educating volunteer divers on proper search techniques was exceeded-the amount of data collected during the diving, the great attitudes of MHM's volunteers about the sites investigated, and the eagerness to investigate more anomalies to learn about them is very rewarding. MHM's attempts to educate the general public through social and professional media have also met with great success. In Minnesota, MHM sought the input of an online historic Crestliner boat forum in an attempt to determine the make of a wreck. In doing so, the forum members learned about the importance of keeping submerged cultural resources unspoiled and about the impressive maritime history of Minnesota that MHM in continually uncovering. MHM also went national to consult with a large group of wooden boat restorers and enthusiasts on the Century Boat Club forum with great results; 1 wreck's make and model was determined and the group steered MHM in the correct direction on another wreck. Both of those wrecks are now recognized numbered archaeological sites with the Office of the State Archaeologist. MHM exceeded expectations and produced great results from this project due to sound fieldwork planning, the solid methodology employed during the fieldwork, the previous systematic methodology employed during the remote sensing surveys that provided good data, and knowledge gained from the LMNA-1 Project. Additionally, MHM's vetting of volunteer divers - choosing only ethical people instead of the other 20 divers who express interest in diving for the wrong (treasure hunting) reasons, led to a great fieldwork environment. Basically, MHM did sound nautical and maritime archaeology, and strong maritime historical research that produced trustworthy data for analysis and future use. MHM's information about the sites located and documented has not always been met with favor by a small minority of the local recreational diving community. In the past they have expressed hostility toward MHM's efforts at site documentation and conservation; it was our hope that this group has begun to recognize the importance of site integrity and preservation. Throughout the LMNA-2 Project, MHM has not received one negative comment on social media or on an often monitored online SCUBA forum. MHM considers this progress, but the attitudes towards site conservation may not have changed; the looters might just be keeping quiet about their activities and opinions. It is an on-going issue. Through the free and easily accessible LMNA-2 Project report-dowloadable from the Internet Archive through various sources, including MHM's web site and Facebook page-it is hoped the divers prone to looting will read the report and recognize the need for preservation and documentation, not illegal destruction. Lastly, MHM was pleased to learn through a volunteer that Minnesota Historical Society Director Steve Elliott referenced MHM and its work as a leader in Nautical Archaeology in Minnesota during his keynote address at the 2013 Gales of November Conference in Duluth. This recognition is meaningful to MHM, and is an indicator that our continued research into Minnesota's maritime history is significant and must continue.",,,747,,9992,,"Mikael F.

MHM's project targets were achieved in that the 10 anomalies investigated during were identified but unfortunately, they were not identified as submerged cultural resources. MHM achieved these results because we are knowledgable and qualified to dive on anomalies and determine their nature. The fact that we only came up with negative results is due to the nature of the bottom of Lake Waconia and how the sonar unit records inconsistencies on the bottom. Fortunately, there are still 36 anomalies located during the LWS Project that require investigation and identification.

Of this amount, $450,000 is for an agreement with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to enhance aquatic habitat in the lower Mississippi River watershed. A list of proposed land restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Healthier populations of endangered, threatened, and special concern species as well as more common species. Remnant goat prairies are perpetually protected. Rivers, streams, and surrounding vegetation provide corridors of habitat. Improved aquatic habitat indicators.   ",,530000,"USFWS, USACE ",1549600,,,2.03,"DNR and USFWS","State Government","The Lower Mississippi River Habitat Partnership included three distinct project components. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service enhanced 700 acres of wetland and bottomland forest habitat on the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge’s (Refuge) Root River Tract in Houston County. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) restored 112.7 acres of bluff prairie in Houston County; 8 acres of deep water habitat in Goose Lake (navigation pool 5 of the Mississippi River) and enhanced 200 acres of secondary channel and backwater lake habitat in North and Sturgeon Lakes (navigation pool 3 of the Mississippi River). ",,"Root River Tract (RRT):  Project planning and design included site elevation surveys, development of hydrologic models and analysis of restoration alternatives.  Recommended features to restore hydrologic connectivity included: removal of existing water control structures, installation of ditch plugs and breaching of existing low level levees and dikes.   A public informational meeting to seek input on a preliminary project plan was held and feedback from that meeting used to refine project alternatives.   A draft Environmental Assessment (EA) which evaluated four alternatives for restoring/enhancing the RRT was completed and released for a 30-day public comment period in September 2015.  A public meeting to discuss the proposed project and draft EA was held in October 2015.  Responses to comments received were provided in the final EA.  A Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the preferred alternative was signed by the Regional Director, Region 3 of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in January 2015.   Restoring natural topography and drainage patterns required removal of existing dikes/levees; construction of ditch plugs using fill materials excavated from existing dikes/levees; removal of existing water control structures; and filling of an existing fish pond with materials excavated from existing dikes/levees.  Plans and specifications for completing this work were developed and local, State and Federal permits were acquired.  Work was accomplished through a combination of contracts and skilled hired labor workers in the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.  Heavy equipment (track trucks, backhoes, skid steers, etc.) was used to accomplish the work.  Large rainfall events in the watershed of the Root River created several floods in 2016 which affected project completion.  In September 2016, flooding on the Root River resulted in a levee breach that brought large amounts of floodwater from the Root  into the project area.  While this flooding delayed completion of some of the project features, it created a unique opportunity to observe how the project would function under flood conditions.  As a result of first-hand, on-site observations of flood waters entering and exiting the project site, project features were modified to enhance the overall hydrologic function of the project. In 2017, installation of low water crossings at locations where trials/roads traveling through the project area crossed restored river channels, oxbows and sloughs, finishing ditch plugs, native seeding, forest enhancement (planting of hard mast trees and flood plain species) and final grading of the project was completed.  Wet conditions and high Mississippi and Root River levels delayed completion of final project features in 2017.   The original goal for wetland and forest enhancement was to restore or enhance 700 acres.  That goal was achieved on time and under budget.  Approximately $299,612 was expended on the Root River project.  The cost of this project component was estimated at $450,000.   Bluff Prairie Restoration:  Bluff prairies, also known as “goat prairies” are a unique and rare habitat in southeastern Minnesota.  Goat prairies are found typically on south or west facing slopes.  Many if not most of these prairies are negatively affected by the invasion of tree species, in particular, red cedar trees.  Removal of red cedar trees as well as other trees from these prairies enhances light penetration to the vegetative layer under the trees and invigorates dormant/shaded prairie plants and seeds.  Restoring a natural fire regime through controlled burning on these sites further enhances prairie development.  Selection of prairies for restoration was based on public ownership and/or willingness of private landowners to have worked completed on their property.  Work was accomplished by contract to businesses familiar with goat prairie restoration techniques.  The original goal for bluff prairie restoration under this grant was to restore 70 acres.  The final bluff prairie acreage restored was 112.7 acres on 8 sites.  This project component was completed, on time, on budget ($150,000 spent) and exceeded the project acreage objective. Pool 3 (North and Sturgeon Lakes) – Pool 5 (Goose Lake):  This project component initially involved multiple habitat restoration/enhancement objectives using established large river restoration techniques such as water level management, channel modifications, island building and dredging. A “cost-share partnership agreement” between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Minnesota DNR was needed to fully execute the project, however, the federally funded portion of the project was placed in deferment until the language associated with partnership agreement and future project management could be amended to satisfy legal requirements. Based on these challenges, an amendment to the accomplishment plan for Pool 3 was approved on July 10, 2015 which reduced the dollar amount of leverage expected from the Federal Government and the potential scope of the project. An additional amendment was submitted and approved in March 2016 which added Goose Lake (Pool 5) as a project site and defined that portion of the Pool 3 project to only include a channel modification at the Brewer Lake inlet. Approximately $500,000 Federal dollars were leveraged and spent on planning and development of preliminary project specifications and Environmental Assessment (EA) for the larger project. Products from this planning effort were used to develop final plans and specs and to obtain the necessary permits for the LSOH funded channel modification project.  In 2016, 8 acres of Goose Lake was dredged to a depth of 7 feet to restore fisheries habitat. Backwater habitats are declining as a result of sedimentation. Dredging to restore depth in backwaters benefits many aquatic species by providing habitat suited for overwintering.  Permits were secured and a contract for the channel modification project at Brewer Lake inlet was awarded in April 2017. Placement of a rock channel liner and shoreline protection was performed from barge mounted heavy equipment. Construction was completed in the spring of 2018. Pre-project monitoring of habitat conditions, fish populations and freshwater mussel populations was completed before construction. The project has achieved the desired outcome of reducing Mississippi River flows and sedimentation rates in Brewer Lake, Buffalo Slough and Sturgeon Lake. The physical and biological response expected would improve aquatic habitat conditions for fish and mussels and protection of floodplain forest communities for a variety of bird and mammal species.  ",2013-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tim,Yager,"U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service","51 E. 4th Street",Winona,MN,55987,507-494-6219,timothy_yager@fws.gov,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Dakota, Goodhue, Houston","Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/lower-mississippi-river-habitat-partnership,,,,

The easement partner (MLT) exceeded goals and permanently protected 131 acres under two conservation easements in Washington County. The fee title acquisition partners (MVT and TPL) were unable to complete the major acquisition they pursued together for the MN Valley National Wildlife Refuge due to landowner change of mind. The OHF grant funds spent were leveraged almost 1:1 with $800,350 in other, mostly non-state funds. ",,"Metro Big Rivers partners’ Phase 4 accomplishments, process and methods are described below. Additional information, photos and site maps are provided in attachments about each project accomplished. Friends of Mississippi River (FMR) enhanced forest and prairie habitat on 54 acres in Dakota and Washington Counties. These sites are situated within the Mississippi River corridor and provide important habitat for a variety of wildlife. Over 320 species of birds use the corridor for spring and fall migration, and need stopover sites like these two natural areas for refueling. In addition, with populations of pollinator species declining, there is need to  increase the quality and quantity of pollinator-friendly habitat, even with small habitat patches, to prevent further declines. These sites are also near or adjacent to other protected natural areas, adding important benefits of habitat linkages for wildlife. FMR’s work included $31,400 in leverage funds and in-kind support from local partners and high school students to complete the following activities: ·       Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park - FMR enhanced 35 acres of oak forest, 3 acres of remnant bluff prairie, and 1 acre of prairie at this natural area in Cottage Grove. Activities included forestry mowing and hand-cutting invasive woody vegetation, foliar treatments for re-sprouting stems, broadcasting native seed and conducting prescribed burns.  ·       Vermillion Linear Park - FMR enhanced 6 acres of riparian forest and 9 acres of prairie at this natural area on the Vermillion River in Hastings. Activities included hand-cutting invasive woody vegetation across the entire project area, foliar treatments for re-sprouting woody stems and herbaceous invasives, broadcasting native seed, and planting native trees, shrubs, wildflowers, and sedges. Additional prairie-specific activities included grassland prep (sprays, burn, tilling, and harrowing), native seeding, mowing, spot treatments and a prescribed burn.  Great River Greening (GRG) exceeded its original goals by restoring and enhancing 76 acres total in Anoka and Ramsey Counties (66 acres were proposed). Leverage funds of $131,950 helped GRG restore 32 acres of prairie, enhance another 5 acres prairie and enhance 39 acres forest, as follows:    ·       Martins Meadows - GRG enhanced 39 acres of forest habitat on this City of Andover Open Space site situated  on the Rum River (29 acres were proposed).  Activities included removal of woody invasives (common buckthorn, honeysuckle, amur maple), tree thinning, woody encroachment removal, mowing, seeding and planting.  The improved habitat will benefit Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN), including red-shouldered hawk, blanding’s turtle and gopher snake, all of which have documented occurrences just up and down stream of the site. ·       Trout Brook Nature Sanctuary (Trillium Nature Preserve) - This former rail yard on St Paul’s east side was transformed through a major restoration effort into a new naturalized area that reflects its original state.  Over the course of the project, 32 acres were restored to prairie and an additional 5 prairie acres were enhanced through woody invasives removal.  Activities included mowing, herbicide application, tree thinning, tree planting and prairie seeding. The restoration of this site presented unique challenges because removal of contaminated soil required use of heavy equipment, thereby compacting the soils and requiring additional seeding preparation work to establish vegetation. The nature sanctuary is a refuge for wildlife in an otherwise urban complex.  It also offers residents who are otherwise underserved in this part of St Paul access to natural space and wildlife. Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) exceeded its goals by closing on two perpetual conservation easements within the St. Croix River corridor in Washington County. In total, 131 acres of high-quality habitat were protected by permanent easement under MBR 4, surpassing the 120-acre goal. MLT leveraged $637,000 in donated value across both easement acquisitions, a 2:1 ratio relative to acquisition funding provided by the OHF grant. The two properties protected under permanent conservation easements are:   ·       Old Mill Stream (Kingston) -- This 44-acre easement protects high-quality wetlands, forest and grasslands along 5,920 feet of Old Mill Stream, a state-designated trout stream in Washington County with a viable population of brook trout. The easement is abutted by William O’Brien State Park on three sides. Approximately 22 acres of the property are characterized as a Site of Moderate Biodiversity Significance by the DNR due to the presence of rare species and moderate quality natural communities, which provides key habitat for a variety of Species in Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN), including red-shouldered hawk, northern long-eared bat and least weasel.  This property is located within the Audubon Society’s St. Croix Bluffs Important Bird Area (IBA), which functions as a vital migratory corridor. In particular, it is important nesting grounds for great blue heron and bald eagle. ·       St. Croix River (Docksteader Trust) -- This 87-acre easement protects high-quality mesic hardwood forest along the bluffs of the St. Croix River Valley in Washington County.  The protected property is directly adjacent to a scenic easement held by the National Park Service, which is part of a connected corridor of scenic easements extending 11 miles along the St. Croix River north of Stillwater.  The protected property lies within an Important Bird Area (IBA) of global importance identified by the Audubon Society, and provides important habitat for a variety of Species in Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN).   Minnesota Valley Trust (MVT) & Trust for Public Land (TPL): MVT and TPL were unable to acquire a large, high-priority property in Hennepin County for the Upgrala Unit of the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. Unfortunately, negotiations that were moving forward ended when a member of the landowner group (a hunting club) changed their mind about selling. Club rules required two-thirds of shareholders to agree to the sale and did not allow the property to be divided. Consequently, MVT and TPL did not expend funds from this appropriation.   ",2013-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Deborah,Loon,"MN Valley Trust (Metro Big Rivers)","3815 East American Boulevard ",Bloomington,MN,55425,"(612) 801-1935",DebLoon@comcast.net,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Anoka, Carver, Chisago, Dakota, Ramsey, Scott, Sherburne, Sibley, Washington","Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/metro-big-rivers-phase-4,,,,

Leveraging other funding and efficiently contracting projects allowed us to add habitat projects and adjust to changing conditions.  ",,"Using FY2014 funding from the Outdoor Heritage Fund (“OHF”), Minnesota Trout Unlimited (MNTU) completed sixteen projects enhancing fish habitat in and along the following public waters (in these counties): 1. Spruce Creek (Cook); 2. Split Rock River (Lake); 3. Miller Creek (St. Louis); 4. Coffee Creek (St. Louis); 5. Garvin Brook (Winona); 6. Trout Brook (Dakota); 7. Blackhoof River (Carlton); 8.

Trout Run Creek (Winona). These projects were completed used methods similar to those used on projects completed by MNTU chapters in the past several years and also incorporated new research to improve project designs and fish and wildlife benefits.    The specific methods used on each stream varied depending upon the distinct natural resource characteristics of each watershed and ecological region, the limiting factors identified for each stream, and the variations in the type and magnitude of poor land uses practices within each watershed.  Methods were tailored accordingly, using the best available science, in close consultation with resource professionals within the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MNDNR).  Purposes:  Each project was designed and completed using techniques selected to accomplish one or more of the following purposes:  (a) increase or maintain adult trout abundance; (b) reduce stream bank erosion and associated sedimentation downstream; (c) reconnect streams to their floodplains to reduce negative resource impacts from severe flooding; (d) increase natural reproduction of trout and other aquatic organisms; (e) increase habitat and biodiversity for both invertebrates and other non-game species; (f) be long lasting with minimal maintenance required; (g) improve angler access and participation; and (h) protect productive trout waters from invasive species. Habitat enhancement methods:  Methods used on each project included one or more of the following techniques: (1) sloping back stream banks to both remove accumulated sediments eroded from uplands areas and better reconnect the stream to its floodplain; (2) removing undesirable woody vegetation (invasive box elder, buckthorn, etc.) from riparian corridors to enable removal of accumulated sediments, reduce competition with desirable plant and grass species, and allow beneficial energy inputs (sunlight) to reach the streams; (3) stabilizing eroding stream banks using vegetation and/or rock; (4) selectively installing overhead and other in-stream cover for trout; (5) installing soil erosion prevention measures; (6) mulching and seeding exposed stream banks (including with native prairie plant species where appropriate and feasible); (7) improving or maintaining stream access roads and stream crossings to reduce erosion; (8) fencing grassy riparian corridors, including in such a way as to facilitate managed grazing, in order to prevent damage from over grazing; (9) placing large logs in northern forested streams to restore cover logs removed a half century or more ago; and (10) in northern forested watersheds with little cold groundwater, planting desirable trees in riparian areas to provide shade for the stream channel, help cool the water, and provide a source of future cover logs. Agricultural area example:  Many streams in the agricultural areas of southern and central Minnesota have been negatively impacted by many decades of poor land management practices.  The projects in southeast Minnesota used the following approach to address this: Erosion has led to wider, shallower and warmer streams, as well as excessive stream side sediments which regularly erode, covering food production and trout reproduction areas.  In many cases shallow rooted invasive trees have taken over the riparian corridors, out competing native vegetation which better secures soils, and reducing energy inputs to the stream ecosystem.  To remedy this, a typical enhancement project will involve several steps.  First, invasive trees are removed from the riparian zone and steep, eroding banks are graded by machinery to remove excess sediments deposited here from upland areas.  Importantly, this reconnects the stream to its floodplain.  Since many of these agricultural watersheds still experience periodic severe flooding, select portions of the stream banks are then reinforced with indigenous rock.  In lower gradient watersheds, or watersheds where flows are more stable, little or no rock is used.  After enhancement work is completed the streams flow faster and become deeper, keeping them cooler and providing natural overhead cover through depth and the scouring of sediments deposited by decades of erosion. Second, overhead cover habitat is created.  Bank degradation and the removal of native prairie or hardwoods have dramatically decreased protective overhead cover in the riparian zone.  Two methods are used to remedy this situation:  increasing the stream’s depth, which alone provides natural cover to trout, and installing overhead cover structures in select stream banks.  Wooden structures or tree trunks are often installed into banks in hydraulically suitable locations and reinforced with rock as a way to restore or recreate the undercut banks which had existed before settlement and agricultural land use altered the more stable flows which had gradually created and maintained them.    Finally, vegetation is reestablished in the re-graded riparian corridor to further stabilize banks and act as buffer strips to improve water quality.  Depending upon the specific site conditions, landowner cooperation, and agricultural use, native grasses and forbes are planted along the stream corridors, although often mixed with fast sprouting annual grains to anchor soils the first year.  Unusual conditions in 2019 caused severe flooding in southeast MN which demonstrated that, due to the unique soils in southeast valley floors, more indigenous rock was needed on the toes of the stream banks on some projects.  These changes were made where needed, while staying within original budget.     Taken together, these actions directly enhance physical habitat, and typically increase overall trout abundance, population structure, the number of larger trout, and levels of successful natural reproduction.  In addition to the benefits to anglers of increased trout habitat and trout abundance, project benefits extending well downstream include reduced erosion and sedimentation, cooler water temperatures, improved water quality and numerous benefits to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife populations.   ",2013-07-01,2020-03-03,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,John,Lenczewski,"Minnesota Trout Unlimited","P O Box 845 ",Chanhassen,MN,55317,"(612) 670-1629",jlenczewski@comcast.net,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Carlton, Cook, Dakota, Fillmore, Lake, Olmsted, St. Louis, Winona","Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Northern Forest, Prairie Region, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/minnesota-trout-unlimited-coldwater-fish-habitat-enhancement-restoration,,,,

Very little stormwater infrastructure currently exists in the 573 acre Oak Glen Creek subwatershed, and it discharges 147,519 pounds of sediment and 353 pounds of phosphorus to the Mississippi River annually. Thanks to a previous Clean Water Fund grant, a project to stabilize a quarter-mile section of creek immediately downstream of this project will be substantially complete by the end of 2013. This stretch of creek was severely deteriorated due to extreme stormwater flow volumes and rates. The increased stormwater storage from this project will complement the stabilization efforts by providing a 51% reduction in peak flow rates. Additionally, the pond retrofit project is ideally located to treat 520 acres (90%) of the highly urbanized subwatershed fully developed prior to modern stormwater treatment practices. It will reduce annual sediment discharging from the site to the Mississippi River by 33% and total phosphorus by 31%.

Through our partnership, young people were treated and acknowledged as emerging artists with value and professional potential. The series provided a weekly practice space, where youth received constructive feedback on finished and developing work from their peers and professional performance artists. Youth progressed quickly, showing noticeable improvement in technique and quality after just one session. In addition, we created a safe environment where these young artists felt comfortable to participate in new practices and share authentic expression. Individual critique was given after each performance, and was valued as nourishing feedback that supported growth. As a result, significantly more young people participated than we originally planned, and that word-of-mouth is one of the best possible outcomes. 2: YouthLink and Kulture Klub Collaborative share many goals, including building healthy relationships with youth and the community -- opening doors of opportunity for futures of empowerment, connectedness and self-reliance. Specifically, this program addressed our service goal of connectedness. Homeless youth experience many barriers to connecting with supportive adults in our communities. This program fostered deep relationships with professional artists and among youth participants.

A list of proposed land restoration and enhancements must be included as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"A network of natural land and riparian habitats will connect corridors for wildlife and species in greatest conservation need. Core areas protected with highly biologically diverse wetlands and plant communities, including native prairie, Big Woods, and oak savanna. Improved aquatic habitat indicators. ",,50000,"Ducks Unlimited ",1999000,16000,,1.6,DNR,"State Government","Construction was completed in 2018 on the three components that made up the major infrastructure project at Pelican Lake - construction of a gravity outlet, water control structure, and pump lift station.  This work will allow for a drawdown and enhancement of Pelican Lake to return it to what was once one of the region's premier waterfowl and wetland wildlife habitats.  Ducks Unlimited provided the engineering and construction oversight of this significant project. ",,"Pelican Lake, located in eastern Wright County within ½ hour of the Twin Cities metro area is a shallow lake known statewide for its waterfowl production, migration, habitat, and hunting opportunities and is a state-designated wildlife lakes in Minnesota. This shallow lake basin has no natural watercourse inlets or outlets. Since the late 1950s and particularly, since the late 1970s, Pelican Lake has experienced a decline in water quality and a loss of the extent and quality of aquatic plant communities that once supported wetland wildlife habitat. This decline in water quality and loss of plant communities is associated with high lake levels and watershed land uses that increase water runoff. Agricultural land uses such as tiling and ditching within the Pelican Lake watershed have altered the natural hydrology and contributed to the decline in water quality. High water levels in Pelican Lake have contributed to persistent and increased rough and game fish populations, as well as a shift from rooted aquatic plants (macrophytes) to algae-dominated (plankton) communities. Increased turbidity due to re-suspension of bottom sediments and algae has resulted in the absence of rooted macrophytes from large areas of the lake.  These macrophytes, when present, moderate wave action, stabilize bottom sediments, uptake nutrients, and provide habitat for invertebrates. These factors have resulted in Pelican Lake changing over time from a “clear water state” to a “turbid state"" and caused negative effects on lake productivity for waterfowl and shorebirds that historically used Pelican Lake as a migration stopover destination. The loss of important food sources associated with diverse macrophyte and invertebrate communities was the primary factor associated with declining use of the lake by waterfowl and shorebirds. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) cooperated with Ducks Unlimited to install the significant infrastructure needed to enhance Pelican Lake through managed drawdowns. In 2012, Ducks Unlimited completed bioengineering designs and preliminary construction plans for the Pelican Lake project and oversaw all subsequent construction.  The project focused on the construction of a variable crest outlet weir and pump lift station which would allow for the gradual dewatering of the basin through an outlet (also developed as part of this project). The outlet was completed in 2014 and was followed by construction of a stoplog weir structure.  A pump station was constructed at the existing edge of the eastern-most bay of Pelican Lake. A 24-inch intake pipe was installed from this point for 900 feet into the lake The intake pipe involved placement of a structure within the lakebed to support the intake pipe at the proper elevation. The pump allows lower drawdowns than are possible with the weir structure alone.   The water level management that this project makes possible is guided by the Pelican Lake Management Plan (2012), which details habitat objectives for the lake and defines triggers that determine what and when management actions are taken.  Pelican Lake is currently in the middle of a multi-year drawdown. The DNR plans to develop a parking lot and lake access point in 2019 to give hunters and visitors better access to Pelican Lake.   ",2013-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ricky,Lien,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources","500 Lafayette Rd Box 20","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5227",ricky.lien@state.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Wright,"Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/pelican-lake-enhancement,,,,

With Perpich Center facilitation, teacher teams develop and implement arts-integrated lessons and units. PAINT program components include:Professional Development and Facilitation: PAINT teachers work together to develop and implement arts-integrated lessons that are student-centered and standards-based. They learn strategies for integrating the arts with other content areas in meaningful, engaging ways; aligning standards, learning goals, and assessments; and reflecting on and learning from student work. Professional development opportunities include multi-day workshops in summers, several 1-day network meetings throughout the school year, and meetings with Perpich facilitators on-site and online.Professional Network, Online and In-Person: Building bridges across disciplines involves tearing down silos and making connections—between content areas, within school teams, and across the region. Teachers network in two different spaces: in person at workshops and meetings, and in an online community of practice. Together, school teams share expertise, solve problems, build arts integrated curricula, assess student learning, and reflect on professional learning. Documentation and Technology: PAINT is an arts integration laboratory to create, test, and refine lessons. School teams contribute to the big picture of arts integration in Minnesota by digitally documenting and sharing those exemplary lessons and practices. Standards and Assessments: So what are students actually learning in arts-integrated lessons? Teachers want to know that too. While constructing arts-integrated lessons, teachers work together to address standards, build assessments that accurately reflect student learning, and review the arts-integrated student work to improve instruction and student learning.",,,2011-07-22,2015-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Pam,Paulson,"Perpich Center for Arts Education","6125 Olson Memorial Highway","Golden Valley",MN,55422,763-279-4187,pam.paulson@pcae.k12.mn.us,Education/Outreach/Engagement,"Perpich Center for Arts Education",,"Aitkin, Anoka, Becker, Carlton, Carver, Cass, Clay, Cook, Dodge, Douglas, Fillmore, Freeborn, Goodhue, Grant, Hennepin, Houston, Itasca, Lake, Mower, Olmsted, Otter Tail, Ramsey, St. Louis, Steele, Stevens, Wabasha, Wilkin, Winona",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/perpich-arts-integration-project-fy12-fy15,,,,

This event will provide an opportunity for residents of Big Lake and many surrounding communities, including all age groups, to get engaged with their neighbors, outdoors, parks and lakes. It will provide an opportunity to not only listen to the great artists, but also to sing and dance. This will be such a fantastic event for families to come out and enjoy together, no matter what financial constraints may exist in a struggling economy. At the end of the season it will be very rewarding to hear from the local communities that this was a wonderful event which brought many families, neighbors and communities together, and they can’t wait to attend next year. Artists will perform at Lakeside Park in Big Lake, Minnesota. This park provides a great atmosphere and will create long-lasting memories. Lakeside Park will provide a stage for the artists to perform on, many mature trees to provide shade and a woodsy atmosphere, picnic tables, grills, shelters, a large grassy area to set up chairs and blankets for people to view the stage, and a large grassy area for audience participation and dancing. Lakeside Park also provides a park where the grass is mowed and always kept green by irrigation, contains permanent restrooms with hot and cold water, a beautifully maintained swimming beach, boat launch and beach area where boats passing by can pull up to shore and listen to the music. Lakeside Park has a large parking area that can park up to 500 vehicles, food stands, and Farmers Market. The outcome of this event has already been successful in 2013. In the spring of 2013 a group of individuals and the City of Big Lake volunteered their time and organized the first Music in the Park event for the summer of 2013. All the costs to hire the musicians to perform were paid for by donations solicited by the volunteers. The first Music in the Park was held Thursday, June 6, 2013 and every Thursday evening thereafter, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. through August 29, 2013 (excluding the 4th of July, 2013). Up through the last performance on August 29, 2013, the feedback from the community has been overwhelmingly positive and participation has been very successful. Adults, children, and a group of local disabled adults all have been singing and dancing to the music. There even have been visitors from out of the United States enjoying Music in the Park. On average, approximately 600 people each Thursday evening have enjoyed this Music in the Park event in 2013. To experience and see firsthand how the surrounding community has come together at all of these musical performances is very gratifying and is a clear indicator that it is very important that this Music in the Park event must continue. Additionally, as this Music in the Park continues, this will eventually lead into other opportunities for other artisans to display their crafts, i.e. paintings, drawings, pottery, carvings, weavings, etc. In working together, the City of Big Lake and Legacy Foundation of Big Lake want to continue to provide an opportunity for artists and musicians to perform in Big Lake. It is difficult for local businesses to continue their generosity with donations to this Music in the Park event. This is why funding assistance is critical to keep this extremely successful event continuing into the future.Music in the Park will be evaluated by conducting a vehicle count at each performance. We are able to conduct a vehicle count as there is only one entrance/exit to Lakeside Park. Also a head count will be conducted at each performance. In addition to the head count, Legacy Foundation of Big Lake and the City of Big Lake will have a Facebook page for the audience to comment. The City of Big Lake also has a website where people can leave their comments.

This event will provide an opportunity for residents of Big Lake and many surrounding communities, including all age groups, to get engaged with their neighbors, outdoors, parks and lakes. It will provide an opportunity to not only listen to the great artists, but also to sing and dance. This will be such a fantastic event for families to come out and enjoy together, no matter what financial constraints may exist in a struggling economy. At the end of the season it will be very rewarding to hear from the local communities that this was a wonderful event which brought many families, neighbors and communities together, and they can’t wait to attend next year. Artists will perform at Lakeside Park in Big Lake, Minnesota. This park provides a great atmosphere and will create long-lasting memories. Lakeside Park will provide a stage for the artists to perform on, many mature trees to provide shade and a woodsy atmosphere, picnic tables, grills, shelters, a large grassy area to set up chairs and blankets for people to view the stage, and a large grassy area for audience participation and dancing. Lakeside Park also provides a park where the grass is mowed and always kept green by irrigation, contains permanent restrooms with hot and cold water, a beautifully maintained swimming beach, boat launch and beach area where boats passing by can pull up to shore and listen to the music. Lakeside Park has a large parking area that can park up to 500 vehicles, food stands, and Farmers Market. The outcome of this event has already been successful in 2013. In the spring of 2013 a group of individuals and the City of Big Lake volunteered their time and organized the first Music in the Park event for the summer of 2013. All the costs to hire the musicians to perform were paid for by donations solicited by the volunteers. The first Music in the Park was held Thursday, June 6, 2013 and every Thursday evening thereafter, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. through August 29, 2013 (excluding the 4th of July, 2013). Up through the last performance on August 29, 2013, the feedback from the community has been overwhelmingly positive and participation has been very successful. Adults, children, and a group of local disabled adults all have been singing and dancing to the music. There even have been visitors from out of the United States enjoying Music in the Park. On average, approximately 600 people each Thursday evening have enjoyed this Music in the Park event in 2013. To experience and see firsthand how the surrounding community has come together at all of these musical performances is very gratifying and is a clear indicator that it is very important that this Music in the Park event must continue. Additionally, as this Music in the Park continues, this will eventually lead into other opportunities for other artisans to display their crafts, i.e. paintings, drawings, pottery, carvings, weavings, etc. In working together, the City of Big Lake and Legacy Foundation of Big Lake want to continue to provide an opportunity for artists and musicians to perform in Big Lake. It is difficult for local businesses to continue their generosity with donations to this Music in the Park event. This is why funding assistance is critical to keep this extremely successful event continuing into the future.Music in the Park will be evaluated by conducting a vehicle count at each performance. We are able to conduct a vehicle count as there is only one entrance/exit to Lakeside Park. Also a head count will be conducted at each performance. In addition to the head count, Legacy Foundation of Big Lake and the City of Big Lake will have a Facebook page for the audience to comment. The City of Big Lake also has a website where people can leave their comments.

For the Pat Hazell writing residency activity, one major outcome will be that participants are able to use creative writing as a way to help give voice to their stories using writing genres of their choice (humor, creative fiction, nonfiction, etc.). It is not the intent to use this session as a way of fleshing out stories of war, but using the experience and learned skills as ways of encouraging participants to begin truthful writing and artistic expression. Given the output from the Pat Hazell workshop in February, veterans may opt to have their own selections from the writing workshop read aloud by company members of Griffin Theater, which will take place in April. Following the writing session, a feedback session with the staff will be held, as well as a train-the-trainer session with Pat Hazell. The therapists of the VA will also have an expanded skillset in creative writing techniques following the training activities, which will help them implement new writing therapy programs at the VA into the future. Since this is an area of arts therapy without trained staff at the VA, Saint John’s University designed this session with the intent of laying a foundation for sustainability of creative writing and performance. Saint John’s University staff members expect that these activities will also strengthen the relationship with our residency partner, which in turn will facilitate future activities.Saint John’s University is working with residency partner, Saint Cloud VA, to outline specific desired outcomes. Following the residency activities, Saint John’s University will gather feedback responses from workshop facilitators to find out if the activities met the intended goals and/or expectations for each group of veterans served. These will be narrative responses, giving partners a chance to provide more meaningful feedback. Saint John’s University has also set up post-activity meetings between Saint John’s University staff and VA facilitators to discuss outcomes of the residencies and goals for future partnerships. The easiest and most often used measure of success will, of course, be attendance numbers at residency activities and at the public performance. Saint John’s University will track ticket sales and participation numbers at residency events as well as survey the public performance audience to find out if this performance attracted new audiences to each performance as anticipated and if each performance was successful at changing attitudes and/or perceptions of the particular genre.","Saint John’s University presented 3 performances and 9 residency activities with Pat Hazell of the Wonder Bread Years, Take 6, and Griffin Theatre Company’s Letters Home.

This concept has led to some incredible partnerships for this concert--the collaboration of the 34th Infantry Division Red Bull Army Band and the Stearns History Museum. This will be a rare opportunity for Great River Chorale to perform with our own state national guardsmen and women. We expect this will be a powerful experience for all performers and make for an exceptional experience for the audience. The concert experience will be augmented by photographs and historical information in our concert program printed with permission from the Stearns History Museum. Thoughtfully selected with the help of museum staff, these photos and related historical information will depict the St Cloud area during World War II and resident servicemen and their families from that time period. This will provide context for performers and audience members about that era—we will gaze through this window at the pride, the struggles and sacrifices of central Minnesotans who served during World War II and the families they left back home. The power of music will transport our audience back to the 1940’s through thoughtfully chosen World War II era popular songs performed by both choirs and the band. Randall Thompson’s The Testament of Freedom, a beautiful setting of patriotic texts written by Thomas Jefferson will be performed as the concert finale. This musical tribute will at once provide a great artistic challenge for all performers involved, and, as it will be performed en masse with both choirs and the army band, have a profound impact on the audience in the context of this concert. We will also include a medley of all the branches of the military’s songs and recognize veterans from each branch throughout the performance. We expect that the theme of this concert and the popular location (the historic Paramount Theatre in downtown St Cloud) will draw a large audience and many first time attendees to a Great River Chorale concert. We also expect that the theme of the performance will attract veterans and families of veterans. We are already experiencing an increase in community support through the participation of the Stearns History Museum and the 34th Infantry Division Red Bull Army Band, but expect community support to continue through the acquisition of a concert sponsor and concert program ad sales. Great River chorale will underwrite 20 tickets to this concert to be distributed to veterans and their families through the Saint Cloud VA Medical Center. Great River Chorale will also perform an outreach concert at the Saint Cloud VA Medical Center Chapel the week after the performance at the paramount. We know this will be truly appreciated by patients and staff while being a great opportunity for Great River Chorale members to give back to the community through our music. Quantitative outcomes: We expect at least 400 attendees at this concert, but hope that more will attend. We expect at least half of our attendees to be veterans or family members of veterans. We anticipate acquiring at least one sponsor for this concert. Due to the popular location and what we believe to be an attractive theme for the concert, we expect to attract several first time attendees to a Great River Chorale concert. We expect to sell at least 500 dollars of advertising space in our program for this concert.A questionnaire/survey designed to capture feedback about concert programming and our audience will be provided to audience members in the concert program. In addition to the questionnaire, Great River Chorale members will be asked to report the verbal feedback they receive from participants and audience members after the concert. Through these methods we will identify the proportion of veterans and family members of veterans at the concert and the general age breakdown of our audience. We expect to hear whether the audience found the content to be an appropriate musical tribute for the commemoration of D-Day. We will ask whether they felt that the addition of non-musical content in the concert program (historical information and photos) served to give them a better picture and transport them back to a bygone era. We are interested in knowing whether the audience appreciates the addition of non-choral elements in the concert, both the Red Bull band and the program content, and whether they think Great River Chorale should continue to include this variety in our programming. Great River Chorale performers will be asked for feedback about their personal artistic growth and the merit of the experiences of the large performance at the Paramount Theatre and the outreach concert at the VA Medical center. This will be done through an electronic questionnaire. All of the directors involved will be interviewed concerning the effectiveness of the collaboration. We will review ticket sales breakdowns and advertising sales breakdowns to verify that we have met or exceeded our goals. All of the information mentioned above will be compiled into a concert success summary that will be discussed with the artistic director and the board of directors as part of the planning for our next collaborative event.","Great River Chorale presented Salute to Freedom, a concert commemorating the 70th anniversary of D-Day.

All easements have been recorded. $35,000 of funds from other sources were also used.   ",,"The RIM Wetlands Partnership Phase V accelerated the restoration and protection of 2,041 acres of previously drained wetlands and associated upland native grassland wildlife habitat complexes via permanent conservation easements.  The goal of the RIM Wetlands Partnership was to achieve the greatest wetland functions and values, while optimizing wildlife habitat on every acre enrolled in the partnership.   Twenty-three permanent conservation easements were recorded, protecting 2,041 acres in permanent RIM easements. These protected wetland and grassland complexes will provide critical habitat for migratory waterfowl and other wetland dependent wildlife species in Minnesota.   The RIM Wetlands Partnership utilized a local-state-federal partnership, delivered by Soil and Water Conservation Districts and the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR).  In addition, the project included collaboration with Ducks Unlimited, the Minnesota Waterfowl Association, Pheasants Forever, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and the United States Department of Interior - Fish and Wildlife Services.  Ducks Unlimited (DU) was a full partner in the RIM Wetlands Partnership.  DU promoted RIM easements, and provided engineering services, technical assistance and project management services through DU specialists.  RIM Wetlands Partnership statewide sign-up was completed in early 2015. Applications were scored and ranked using the RIM Wetland Restoration Evaluation Worksheet.  The worksheet determined which restoration projects provided the greatest wetland functions and values and optimized wildlife habitat.  The highest scoring applications were funded.

Ten of these small communities will be the target of the technical assistance provided by this project. These communities have community or individual straight pipes which are discharging raw sewage directly into the environment, surfacing sewage, or have sewage contaminating groundwater. Working closely with county staff and local elected officials, two staff will provide a wide range of technical assistance to help these small communities follow the many steps needed to upgrade their sewage treatment systems. These steps include forming community task forces, studying the large number of sewage treatment system options, applying for and pursuing funding, forming sewer districts, preparing ordinances, and developing operation and management plans. With the assistance provided by this project, a goal of six communities will construct new community sewage treatment systems, which will eliminate approximately 152,550 gallons of untreated sewage per day from entering the Lower Mississippi River and Cedar River Basins (55 million gallons per year). These projects will make significant progress towards the achievement of the Lower Mississippi River Basin Total Maximum Daily Load for Fecal Coliform Bacteria.

These areas will then be targeted for future resource management efforts, Clean Water Fund projects, and additional conservation activities. Project deliverables include: summarizing physical and socioeconomic characteristics of the area of interest, evaluation of land use trends and potential effects on water quality, stream power index, digital analysis of shoreline erosion potential, distributed soil loss (RUSLE) calculations, developing sediment delivery budgets and creating nutrient delivery indices. These products will improve the targeting strategies for conservation practices and better evaluate the potential impacts of such measures. The stormwater assessment and design will define catchment areas and identify potential treatment opportunities in cities and towns adjacent to surface waters in the member counties. Site visits by local staff will be conducted to verify information used to complete modeling and initial design. The resulting cost/benefit analyses of the potential stormwater treatment practices will be delivered to the community and incorporated into local water management plans.

Up to $280,000 is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund, as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. A list of proposed land acquisitions must be included as part of the required accomplishment plan.",,"Protected in easement 1,962 acres ",,1209700,"Donated easement value",1965700,,,1,"MN Land Trust","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Fourteen conservation easements were completed by this program resulting in the protection of 1,962 acres of high quality wetland and associated upland habitat complexes and 78,596 feet (approximately 15 miles) of shoreland along priority lakes and rivers in west-central Minnesota. This program exceeded by 862 acres the amount proposed for the grant. Total leverage through donated easements by landowners is estimated at $1,209,700, all in excess of that proposed.",,"Of all of Minnesota’s wildlife habitat types, wetlands and shallow lakes provide the essential backbone for the survival of waterfowl and other important wildlife species. In fact, more than 50% of the amphibians and birds listed in Minnesota’s Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy as species in greatest conservation need (SGCN) use wetlands during their life cycle.  Most of the plans developed to protect Minnesota’s wildlife—including Minnesota’s Comprehensive Wildlife Conservation Strategy, the Statewide Conservation and Preservation Plan, Minnesota Prairie Plan and the Long Range Duck Recovery Plan—cite the protection and restoration the state’s remaining wetlands as one of the top priorities to achieve the State’s conservation goals.  Moreover, these plans cite the use of conservation easements on private lands as one of the primary strategies to protect important wetland and shallow lake habitat. In this first phase of its Wetland Habitat Protection Program, the Land Trust concentrated its activities toward protecting through conservation easements the important wetland and associated upland habitats within its Edge of the Prairie Critical Landscape. This landscape, which extends from Meeker County northwest to Becker County, is located at the edge of the once vast prairies of western Minnesota as they transition to the woods and forests that dominate the eastern portion of the State.  The prairie pothole lakes and associated wetlands within this landscape form the backbone of one of the continent’s most important flyways for migratory waterfowl. Through this grant, the Land Trust protected 1,962 acres of high priority wetland and associated upland habitats and nearly 15 miles of shoreland along lakes, streams and rivers by acquiring conservation easements from willing landowners. This exceeded the proposed target output by 862 acres. The program targeted projects that helped fill gaps in existing public ownership, contained the highest-quality habitat, and provided the greatest leverage to the state. The Land Trust accepted three fully donated easements, negotiated bargain sale purchases for an additional ten easements, and purchased one at full appraised value. Total leverage from donated value of the easements is placed at $1,209,705, all in excess of that proposed. This value was substantiated in all fourteen easements through appraisals. The success of the program in producing high levels of donated value was due in part to both the high levels of interest among landowners in participating in the program, and the use of a novel ranking system and market-based approach for purchasing conservation easements. This market-based approach was developed through the Land Trust's work with St. John’s University in the Avon Hills.  Under this system, potential parcels for easement purchase were prioritized based on their value to wetland protection, proximity to other protected parcels, MCBS data and other appropriate criteria while allowing targeted landowners to select the price necessary for them to protect their property with an easement. Those properties with the best ratio of environmental benefits to easement cost became the highest priority for acquisition.  Through this grant, the Land Trust has significantly built on its past 15 years of conservation impact in protecting important wetland complexes in this landscape. This work continues through Phase 2 of this program, with funding from the Outdoor Heritage Fund to continue our work in building on the successes of this initial phase, and to secure an additional 750 acres of wetland habitat in west-central Minnesota.
