Permanent acquisition and restoration of grasslands and wetlands is one of the major tools we have for reversing this trend. This seventh phase of the WPA acceleration program acquired and restored a total of 1,506.35 acres of grasslands and wetland habitat as permanently protected WPA’s managed by the USFWS. Pheasants Forever and USFWS staff collaborated to generate a list of parcels with landowners who had the desire to sell. The parcel’s ecological impact was evaluated using landscape level planning tools developed by the USFWS Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET). These tools utilize Thunderstorm Maps to predict productivity of breeding waterfowl, grassland birds, and other wildlife species for the potential parcel and surrounding area. By utilizing these tools, we were able to focus efforts in areas where acquisitions and restorations will make the greatest impact on the landscape and thus these additional acres of WPA are very beneficial to wildlife and public recreation. Pheasants Forever notified counties prior to acquisition of lands. Once acquired, the UFWS will make a one-time Trust Fund payment to the County where the property is located. Additionally, the USFWS will make annual Refuge Revenue Sharing payments for all fee lands within the respective counties. Once acquired, wetlands on each parcel were restored by installing surface ditch “plugs” and or breaking subsurface tile. Some wetlands may also have had sediment removed to create proper substrates for wetland function and vegetative growth. Grasslands were restored by planting a high-diversity native seed mix of grasses and forbs that are regionally appropriate to the area. As with all restoration work there are challenges that come from weather and working with private contractors but we did not face any major issues.

",,"The loss of native prairie and associated grassland habitat is arguably the greatest conservation challenge facing western and southern Minnesota. This appropriation aimed to protect 760 acres of native prairie habitat by accelerating the enrollment of Native Prairie Bank easements. Not only were the prairie protection outcomes met but they were exceeded by 582 acres.  Acceleration, such as this, is necessary to address the loss of native prairie and associated grasslands. Today, only about 1.3% of Minnesota’s original 18 million acres of prairie remains. The few remaining acres of native prairie once were thought of as unsuitable for crop production, however with advancements in technology and equipment, in addition to growing competition for tillable acres, this is no longer the case.  Unfortunately, grassland-to-cropland conversion is not the only impact to native prairie, significant degradation and loss is also occurring due to property development, mineral extraction and lack of prairie-oriented management. If the current trajectory of grassland and prairie loss continues it will be devastating to grassland dependent wildlife populations. Recognizing that protecting grassland and wetland habitat is one of the most critical conservation challenges facing Minnesota, over a dozen leading conservation organizations have developed a road map for moving forward – the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan. This plan calls for several outcomes, one being the protection of all remaining native prairie, largely through conservation easements. One of the primary easement tools for native prairie protection in Minnesota is the DNR administered Native Prairie Bank easement. Native Prairie Bank was established by the 1987 legislature to protect private native prairie lands by authorizing the state to acquire conservation easements from willing landowners. Native Prairie Bank targets the protection of native prairie tracts, but can also include adjoining lands as buffers and additional habitat.  Originally, this appropriation aimed to protect 760 acres of native prairie through Native Prairie Bank easements. Eligible tracts were to be located within priority landscapes identified in the Minnesota Prairie Plan and prioritized based on several evaluation factors including:     1) Size and quality of habitat, focusing on diverse native prairie communities that have been identified by the Minnesota Biological Survey    2) The occurrence of rare species, or suitability habitat for rare species    3) Lands that are part of a larger habitat complex Ultimately, 10 native prairie parcels for a total of 1,342 acres (582 acres more than initial 760 acre goal) were perpetually protected through this appropriation via Native Prairie Bank Easements.  These now protected native prairies are unique natural resources that consist of thousands of different organisms, plants, animals, bacteria and soil fungi.  Their complex interactions provide the food, water and shelter required by many of Minnesota’s rare, threatened and endangered species. These prairies house a wide variety of pollinator species, some of which often cannot survive in other habitats, including prairie restorations.  ",2015-07-01,2019-10-23,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Judy,Schulte,"MN DNR","1241 E Bridge Street ","Redwood Falls",MN,56283,"(507) -637-6016",judy.schulte@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Big Stone, Clay, Kittson, Lac qui Parle, Polk, Redwood, Wilkin, Yellow Medicine","Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/accelerated-native-prairie-bank-protection-phase-iv,,,,

",,,,1889400,77000,,4,DNR,"State Government","This proposal will address a backlog of shallow lake and wetland habitat work that will otherwise go unfunded. These projects will address work called for in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan, Long Range Duck Recovery Plan, and Shallow Lakes plan. ",,"Engineering and construction of major shallow lake and wetland infrastructure includes work on water control structures, dikes, and fish barriers to improve wetland habitat management. Five major infrastructure projects were constructed with funding from this appropriation. The five (Carex Slough/Freeborn County, Mahlke Marsh/Lyon County, Hovland/Mahnomen County, Roseau River WMA Pool 2/Roseau County, and Staples/Todd County) all began with property manager submission of the projects into an annual Section of Wildlife project solicitation process. All projects undergo Regional and Central Office review, with wetland and shallow lake projects receiving additional review by Wetland Habitat Team members. Suitable projects are selected for inclusion in OHF proposals. Given the complexity of major wetland infrastructure projects, OHF project lists in Accomplishment Plans undergo continual adjustments based on engineering assessments, budget projections, and to seek efficient use of appropriation funds. Reflective of the expense often incurred in major wetland infrastructure projects, expenditures for these five projects accounted for 43% of the total expenditures for this appropriation. Four major shallow lake/wetland management actions were implemented to enhance habitat - Simon Lake Drawdown and Fish Treatment/Pope County, Raguet WMA Wetland Tree Removal/Carver County, a major wetland prescribed burn at Roseau River WMA/Roseau County, and a channel cleanout at Moose-Willow Flowage/Aitkin County. Both projects were initiated, reviewed and selected for inclusion in an OHF appropriation by the aforementioned process and both projects presented unique challenges that are typical of complex wetland projects. Water levels at Simon Lake were reduced by gravity drawdown as much as possible, then was supplemented by pumps. When reduced as much as practical, a private company was hired to apply rotenone to remove unwanted fish. Unfortunately, the private company quit only hours after beginning the rotenone application. In an amazing move, the DNR Shallow Lakes Program immediately began work to undertake the rotenone application in-house. One year after the private company quit the treatment, a highly coordinated operation involving DNR Shallow Lakes and Roving Habitat Crew staff successfully implemented the treatment. Follow up assessments reported a successful fish treatment and a subsequent improvement in habitat quality at Simon Lake. Tree removal at Raguet WMA in Carver proved challenging as well. Existence of a high quality fen in the project area prohibited the use of large equipment. Instead, cut trees were removed by pulling them offsite with cables and winches to protect the fen. The prescribed burn of a wetland occurred in August 2019 at Roseau River WMA and involved 7,350 acres. The project ""burn boss"" said the burn was done to set back brush encroachment and cattails in a sedge meadow. One month after the burn, significant rainfall at the site raised water levels and flooded the burned cattails. Thick beds of wild rice were reported in areas in which cattails had previously been dominant. Finally, a channel cleanout was conducted in the downsteam channel of the Moose- Willow Flowage in Aitkin County. Channels often become shallower as sediment is deposited. The shallow channels can be more conducive to growth of cattails. The double-whammy of shallower channels and cattails can result in higher water levels in upstream basins. The Moose-Willow Flowage had declined as habitat due to the described sedimentation and cattail growth. A specialized piece of equipment known as a Cookiecutter was utilized to cleanout the channel is what will be a two phase plan to improve Moose-Willow. Phase I was the channel cleanout. Phase II will see installation of a new water control structure. An exciting activity undertaken with this appropriation is the outfitting of a DNR helicopter with equipment to all annual spraying of invasive cattails. Credit for initiating this goes to DNR Pilot Brad Maas, who saw the potential to add spray equipment to an existing under-utilized helicopter. OHF funding was used for a capital equipment purchase of both a aerial spray unit and new avionics for the helicopter. This new equipment allows for annual spraying of approximately 2500 acres of invasive hybrid cattails. A standardized process has developed for the annual work. Early in the calendar year, the supervisor of all DNR Roving Habitat Crews puts out a call for potential cattail spray sites. The combined list of projects is mapped and projects to be treated are selected based on property manager ranking of needs and proximity of projects to each other and their statewide location. Helicopter landing sites are chosen and property managers are responsible for mowing the landing sites and proving proper public notice. Specially trained staff from Roving Habitat Crews are utilized as ground support for the helicopter. Thirty-five individual parcels were treated in the first year of utilizing the DNR helicopter. Prior to obtaining the ability to use the DNR helicopter to spray cattails, three parcels were sprayed by contracted companies, also with this appropriation. Direct comparison of these two spray methods (private company vs. DNR helicopter) shows that the DNR helicopter allows us to get this work done at less cost and with more control over the timing of the treatment and size of the treated areas. Funding from this appropriation was utilized for wetland enhancement work by two Roving Habitat Crews, the Region 3 crew based out of Vermillion and the Region 4 crew based out of Lac qui Parle. Wetland habitat enhancement conducted by Roving Habitat Crews can include tree removal from wetlands, small scale spraying of cattails and other invasive vegetation, seeding wild rice, conducting drawdowns, sediment removal from small wetland basins, and actual construction of small wetland infrastructure projects. Roving Habitat Crew Leaders are constantly receiving submissions from DNR property managers for potential habitat projects and develop priorities based on Department priorities and the need to address requirement imposed by funding rules. Thirty- two individual wetland enhancement projects were reported by the two Roving Habitat Crews. Of the 28,101 wetland acres impacted by this appropriation, the reported wetland enhancement work done by Roving Habitat Crews accounted for 11,056 acres at a cost of just over $35/acre.

These Crews allow the DNR to be very flexible. While they have a list of projects to work on, they can also respond fairly quickly if there's an enhancement opportunity shows up. For instance, a short dry period in a part of the state may allow them to conduct a late summer prescribed fire which was not in any of the original work plans. Roving Crews have begun experimenting with different burn seasons. Typically, we burn in the spring before the nesting season. However, this can stimulate the warm-season grasses and begin to crowd out forbs, lowering plant diversity. Burning in the late summer, after birds have fledged but with enough time for some late summer regrowth, has shown to increase both plant diversity as well as structural diversity in the habitat. Just as important, it can knock back the dominant grasses such as big bluestem and Indian grass just enough for forbs to express themselves the following year. Although 23,247 acres appears to be a large number, we feel the actual acres benefitted may be much larger. For instance, we know nest predation of grassland birds is higher near woody vegetation and some birds just won't nest near woody veg. By removing trees, we are impacting both the footprint of where those trees were but also the surrounding grassland where nest success should now be higher. Esthetically, it creates a more open landscape visually which is usually appreciated by grassland enthusiasts. Especially when near ungrazed grassland, grazing can have larger benefits. Birds used grazed areas primarily during the summer when birds are young. Having ungrazed grassland, good nesting cover, next to grazed grassland, good brood rearing cover, should increase overall number of birds that survive into the fall. I have personally visited a number of public lands grazing sites in western Minnesota and have always been impressed with what I've seen. Although grazing is a summer activity, I've flushed a number of birds, both pheasants and songbirds, from these areas in the fall. Often the biggest benefit to grazing comes in the first couple years after grazing as the habitat is regrowing. Although there is still much to learn, we have learned a lot in recent years about restoration techniques. We still use several methods for restoring prairie and there's probably no one perfect way of doing it. It's very clear to even someone without botanical training when they are walking through a recent restoration and an older restoration. Even if they can't identify every plant, the diversity people see is striking. This in comparison to older restorations which are strongly dominated by only a couple species of grasses. The DNR has traditionally focused on game species such as pheasants. However, there is more and more interest in pollinators and biodiversity. Fortunately, just about every study out there shows that management and restoration for pollinators and songbirds often creates the best habitat for game species. Diverse, healthy, productive habitat is good for a wide range of species. As we continue to use these funds, costs for projects will probably increase. In the early years of these funds, we completed a number of simpler or easier projects, the low-hanging fruit. Now we are left with the larger and more challenging projects. While they are good habitat projects, they will probably increase in costs over time. In our budget table, we prorated our budget for individual projects by the acres accomplished. Staff funding was combined into one value. Identifying funding for each position would be an accounting challenge.

Lifelong Learning The Minnesota Zoo is not just for children! Legacy funding supports a number of programs aimed at supporting and expanding Zoo programs for adults. This includes a recently introduced adults only program, “Adult Night Out.” These age 18+ evening events offer an after-hours experience for working and older adults who might not otherwise visit the Zoo. This program also incorporates the Our World Speaker Series designed to engage guests in conservation issues. These lectures are offered free of charge to all attendees, ensuring access for all interested guests. The Zoo is also offering a number of adult education programs that focus on special interest areas such as Zoo horticulture and wildlife photography. These programs serve a range of adult audiences including seniors, corporate groups, and young adults. Strategic Communications In an effort to help Zoo guests care more and do more for conservation, this project was designed to test and implement zoo-based conservation messaging that would encourage people to act for wildlife. The Zoo began implementing its new brand strategy “Where Amazing Lives. Every Day.” This campaign creates a consistent story throughout the Zoo. Expanded Zoomobile Geography can be a barrier to accessing high quality environmental education programs. The Zoomobile program exists to serve people who cannot visit the Minnesota Zoo by bringing the Zoo to them, regardless of where they live in Minnesota. Trained interpretive naturalists travel with animals to all corners of the state and deliver programs at schools, libraries, community centers, children’s hospitals, senior centers, and more. Zoomobile participants experience live animals up close and learn about the ecological principles that connect all living things to one another. Legacy funding makes it possible to expand the service and reach of Zoomobile by sending more staff and more animals throughout the state.

We are working with our agency partners to develop statewide systems for entering managing and sharing water and climate data for Minnesota’s state and local governments that generate and use this data. With Clean Water Funds we developed a new quality assurance process for our groundwater level data and transferred it to a cooperative DNR/MPCA database and we launched a new cooperative groundwater monitoring website which provides access to all available groundwater level data from over 950 DNR- operated observation wells. We worked to develop groundwater sustainability thresholds which will be used to identify problems that could be caused by groundwater pumping for certain lakes rivers and wetlands that depend on groundwater. We also worked with 24 communities to develop or review and approve water supply plans. We provided training for soil and water conservation district staff across Minnesota. This training significantly increased local government’s knowledge and understanding of groundwater and highlighted the need for more resources to manage groundwater at the local level. We conducted eight aquifer tests (focused investigations that help estimate the potential impacts from high capacity pumping from water supply wells) to learn more about regional water sustainability issues. We are also creating an interagency aquifer test database in cooperation with the Minnesota Department of Health which uses aquifer tests to evaluate and establish drinking water wellhead protection areas.

We seek to stage an event that represents the diverse ethnic and cultural arts traditions represented in this region. Change Expected: As a result of the project we expect there will be a new intent and motivation to participate in groups like this. Goal 3. We want to tell the Chord-Ayres story to a large regional audience and record the history of the group for posterity. Change expected: Our group will learn something new about the effective use of television and a highly produced recording that will increase our capacity to sustain our work through more contributors and members. The Chord-Ayres have a long history or eliciting emotional responses to our performances. On dozens of occasions we have brought audiences of vets to tears, brought them to their feet and received thunderous applause. We will have a audience survey at the September 14, 2019 event to gauge reaction and we will tabulate the response. We will work with Ashley Hanson to develop the survey. Hanson is an Obama Fellow and a Granite Falls Resident Artist who has extensive experience in designing evaluations for Legacy funded performances. We will measure the number of students and Senior Citizens who come to the performance and participate in it in order to evaluate how we do on representing the diverse elements of our community.","Many of the responses indicated that they learned something about the history of the Chord - Ayres. Many of the comments were in regards to the audience learning about our history and them learning how dedicated this group is. The majority of responses indicated they see more of a value to having a men's chorus than before the concert. This will hopefully lead to more participating from younger men in the region to join our group. One of the best parts of the show is when we had the 5th and 6th grade students join us in singing a couple of songs. One of the students stood by his grandpa when they sang with us. More importantly it showed the audience in attendance and the televised audience that we involved a lot of students from the Micronesian community that is very prevalent in Milan.","Achieved proposed outcomes",8445,"Other,local or private",15445,,"Wes Anderson, Dick Jepson, Stanley Knudson, Carmen Fernholz, Dick Hauck",0.00,Chord-Ayres,"Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project",,"Chord-Ayres 50th Anniversary Concert and Documentary Project.",2019-03-05,2020-06-29,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Richard,Jepson,Chord-Ayres,"10253 850th Ave","Granite Falls",MN,56241,"(320) 981-0363",jeps53@me.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Lac qui Parle, Big Stone, Big Stone, Swift, Chippewa, Yellow Medicine, Lyon, Renville, Redwood",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-208,"Anne Dybsetter: visual art, writing; John Ginocchio: music, education; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council Board; Jane Nygaard: arts advocate; Michele Knife Sterner: theater actor, Southwest Minnesota State University associate director for Access Opportunity Success program, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council Board; Tom Wirt: visual art.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Anna Johanssen: fiber artist, art teacher, Remick Gallery board, president of Windom Women’s Investment group, treasurer of Cottonwood County Animal Rescue, officer of Cotton Quilters; Kristen Kuipers: musician, private lesson and K-12 classroom music instructor, theater, writing, volunteer with Jackson Center for the Arts; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Michele Knife Sterner: theater actor, Southwest Minnesota State University Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Lisa Hill: musician, Crow River Singers, attorney; Joyce Aakre: visual arts, writing, Discover Dassel committee, Board member for Litchfield Community Education, Exhibit committee for Dassel Area Historical Society; Emily Petersen: visual artist, art teacher; David KelseyBassett: visual artist, musician; Anne O’Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Scott Wessels: theater actor, director, writing, media, communications, board member for Green Earth Players; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association; Erica Volkir: performing arts, Director of Pipestone Area Chamber of Commerce and CVB; Claire Swanson: visual arts, arts teacher, Meander Art Crawl Committee.",,2

We will measure our success in meeting each of these goals through our evaluation tools. This project directly connects to three of the five Main Goals of Minnesota funding in the following ways: 1) Supporting artists and arts organizations in creating, producing and presenting high-quality arts activities - We will achieve this by engaging professional artists working with PlaceBase Productions, and by engaging and paying local artists as performers and musicians. 2) Overcoming barriers to accessing high-quality arts activities - We will achieve this by bringing a high-quality, original musical written and directed by professional artists to our region. And, we will include two free public performances to reduce barriers created by ticket costs. 3) Instilling the arts into the community and public life in our region - We will achieve this by integrating theater into the existing landscape and community events, and by including more partners in this initiative. PlaceBase Productions will engage an evaluator who will conduct qualitative, quantitative and participatory evaluation strategies throughout the project, involving the perspectives of all stakeholders – including the cast, story swap participants, and audience members. The final act of the play will be at Bluenose Gopher Public House and include one free beverage. The survey will act as the beverage coupon and will be required to complete before collecting the free drink. One month following the final performance, PlaceBase will conduct an Evaluation Session. The cast, partners and stakeholders will be invited to evaluate the ripple effects of the project and discuss next steps. All information gathered will be compiled and presented to the stakeholders in an Evaluation Report completed by PlaceBase Productions. PlaceBase Productions will also engage a videographer / photographer who will document elements of the process, prepare a short video documentary, and capture the performance, which will be made available to the cast, partners, and community following the production.","The production attracted a regional and intergenerational audience including many who do not typically attend arts events in our region. Many also expressed being surprised by the level of talent and quality of the production - especially the music and singing; they enjoyed moving from scene to scene and experiencing the different scene locations; they appreciated learning about the history of the area in a new way; and they were impressed by the level of participation from both audiences and cast. Audience members expressed the power of using art to share history and stories, and a desire to bring a show like this to their community. Approximately 60% of our audience left feeling more connected to Granite Falls history and/or Granite Falls as a place to experience the arts.","Achieved proposed outcomes",5754,"Other,local or private",28604,,"Terri Dinesen, Kyle Klausing, Melanie Gatchell, Barb Benson, Doug Bengston, Cathy Anderson, Mary Gillespie, Crystal Johnson, Tamara Isfeld, David Smiglewski",0.00,"Granite Falls Historical Society AKA Andrew Volstead House Museum","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project Legacy",,"Big Ideas from a Little Town.",2019-03-01,2020-01-15,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Mary,Gillespie,"Granite Falls Historical Society","163 9th Ave","Granite Falls",MN,56241,"(320) 309-0092",gfheritage@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Yellow Medicine, Chippewa, Renville, Kandiyohi, Lac qui Parle, Lyon",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-legacy-20,"Anne Dybsetter: visual art, writing; John Ginocchio: music, education; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council Board; Jane Nygaard: arts advocate; Michele Knife Sterner: theater actor, Southwest Minnesota State University associate director for Access Opportunity Success program, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council Board; Tom Wirt: visual art.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Anna Johanssen: fiber artist, art teacher, Remick Gallery board, president of Windom Women’s Investment group, treasurer of Cottonwood County Animal Rescue, officer of Cotton Quilters; Kristen Kuipers: musician, private lesson and K-12 classroom music instructor, theater, writing, volunteer with Jackson Center for the Arts; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Michele Knife Sterner: theater actor, Southwest Minnesota State University Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Lisa Hill: musician, Crow River Singers, attorney; Joyce Aakre: visual arts, writing, Discover Dassel committee, Board member for Litchfield Community Education, Exhibit committee for Dassel Area Historical Society; Emily Petersen: visual artist, art teacher; David KelseyBassett: visual artist, musician; Anne O’Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Scott Wessels: theater actor, director, writing, media, communications, board member for Green Earth Players; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association; Erica Volkir: performing arts, Director of Pipestone Area Chamber of Commerce and CVB; Claire Swanson: visual arts, arts teacher, Meander Art Crawl Committee.",,2

We will distribute a paper survey and conduct interviews at the project site to get feedback on the project. We will ask questions such as “What do you think about the painted staircase?” and “What other public art projects would you like to see?” We will post-on Facebook and track number of views and shares.

10009156,"Art Project",2019,6000,"Laws of Minnesota 2017 Regular Session, chapter 91, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","One of our goals, as outlined above, is to help our community overcome geographic the economic barriers to accessing high-quality musical performances close to home. We can provide high-quality entertainment and musical education to our community members, many of whom might not be able to see and hear, in person, this quality of music and performance in different genres. Another goal is to play our part in instilling the arts into our community and the public life of our region. The New London Music Festival has become a yearly tradition where people can come to enjoy the day and experience the rich, live-music tradition of our region and our country. We feel that this is very much in tune with a civic goal of the city of New London: to make the arts an everyday part of community life. We have consciously attempted, over the past several years, to involve even more local businesses and organizations with the festival, whether in sponsorships, donations in kind, or as part of the group of vendors who provide food for the festival. We want to make the Festival, as much as possible, a completely local event celebrating the arts in New London. We have continued to have success in the past two years and will continue to pursue our goal of increasing the number of attendees between the ages of 25-50, who have been historically under-represented in our audiences. Each year the Festival Committee reviews survey forms, which are given to each attendee. Attendees are given an incentive to return the forms by the award of a cash door prize given to a randomly selected person who has filled out and returned a survey form. The results of this survey tell us a lot about the demographics of our audience, what they liked and disliked about the music and the artists, and what we can do better for next year. We also closely review attendance based on ticket sales and monitor comments left on our Facebook site, Website, and New London Music Festival e-mail. The comments are very useful as they help give us a sense of what genres of music are interesting and valuable to our audience and what new areas we might explore. A committee meeting is held following the Festival day each year to read, analyze, and discuss the results and plan for the coming year. We measure our success in terms of total attendance (although we need to factor in local weather conditions on Festival day), attendance increases within the 25-50 age group we have targeted to build up and increases in survey approval ratings from year to year, as well as specific comments made by our attendees.","96% of survey respondents rated the musical artists and variety/quality of the music as ?excellent"" or ?good."" When asked about the cost of tickets for this day of music, 72% said that the ticket cost was ?just right"" and 17% rated the ticket cost as ?a bargain"". We hoped to achieve an attendance level (tickets sold) of 275 people. We fell short of this goal as we sold 169 tickets. With promotional tickets counted in, our total was 210. With the pressure on local businesses to support myriad local causes and projects, only those projects that are perceived to be important to the community receive support. This year over 30 local businesses provided the festival with monetary or in-kind support.","Achieved some of the proposed outcomes",8709,"Other,local or private",14709,,"Steve Slominski, Mark Crellin, Rosemary Bentson, Abigail Duly, Bill Gossman, Bethany Lactorin, Mateo Mackbee",0.00,"New London Music Festival","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project",,"2019 New London Music Festival.",2019-02-15,2019-12-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Steve,Slominski,"New London Music Festival","PO Box 35","New London",MN,56273,"(320) 295-1615",newlondonmusicfestival@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Anoka, Chippewa, Douglas, Hennepin, Hubbard, Kandiyohi, Le Sueur, Lyon, Meeker, Olmsted, Ramsey, Redwood, Renville, Scott, Stearns, Stevens, Swift, Wright",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-216,"Anne Dybsetter: visual art, writing; John Ginocchio: music, education; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council Board; Jane Nygaard: arts advocate; Michele Knife Sterner: theater actor, Southwest Minnesota State University associate director for Access Opportunity Success program, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council Board; Tom Wirt: visual art.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Anna Johanssen: fiber artist, art teacher, Remick Gallery board, president of Windom Women’s Investment group, treasurer of Cottonwood County Animal Rescue, officer of Cotton Quilters; Kristen Kuipers: musician, private lesson and K-12 classroom music instructor, theater, writing, volunteer with Jackson Center for the Arts; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Michele Knife Sterner: theater actor, Southwest Minnesota State University Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Lisa Hill: musician, Crow River Singers, attorney; Joyce Aakre: visual arts, writing, Discover Dassel committee, Board member for Litchfield Community Education, Exhibit committee for Dassel Area Historical Society; Emily Petersen: visual artist, art teacher; David KelseyBassett: visual artist, musician; Anne O’Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Scott Wessels: theater actor, director, writing, media, communications, board member for Green Earth Players; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association; Erica Volkir: performing arts, Director of Pipestone Area Chamber of Commerce and CVB; Claire Swanson: visual arts, arts teacher, Meander Art Crawl Committee.","Southwest Minnesota Arts Council, Nicole DeBoer (507) 537-1471",1

Our band has improved under the direction of Brock Duncan, and we hope that we not only increase our audience attendance, but also the number of musicians in our ensemble. We have seen a small increase in the number of musicians in our band. We are proud that we draw musicians from at least eleven cities in our area. In addition to recruiting new members via word-of-mouth, we hope increasing our advertising efforts alerts potential band members to learn about us. We contact area band directors to let them know that we welcome any of their advanced students to join us. Performing our spring concert at the NLS Performing Arts Center, with NLS student musicians, is another way we hope to recruit new band members. It is important to note that no one is turned away from playing in our band. There is a certain amount of self-selection that occurs because of the difficulty level of much of our music, but we have a core belief that as long as members come to rehearsals and bring their music home to practice, there is a place for them. Our spring concert featured 48 musicians, this fall we had 44 musicians playing, and in summer we average about 30 performers. Our goal would be to have at least 58 different band members play with us in 2019. Besides traveling to the New London-Spicer High School to perform this spring, we also want to continue to perform for our sizable summer audiences, and at community celebrations like the tribute to our local veterans at the Kandiyohi County Fair. Hearing live music in a concert hall and at a park adds to the richness of life in a rural community. For the first time, we will use an audience survey at our indoor concerts. The surveys will be placed in the programs, and we will ask people to leave them outside the concert hall. We looked at a few surveys from other music organizations and compiled our own. A board member will tabulate the results, and the board will discuss how to respond to the feedback, especially regarding advertising and repertoire. It would be very difficult to distribute surveys at our outdoor concerts in the park since there are no programs, ticket takers, or ushers.","We included audience surveys for the first time (only at indoor concerts), and the feedback was very positive. We had about 50% of audience members return the surveys, and over 95% of them wrote that they enjoyed the variety of music we played. It was particularly gratifying to learn that a large majority enjoyed the serious music, with its challenging rhythms, notes, and interpretations. Quite a few wished the concerts were longer. More than a few wrote that we reminded them of their pleasure at playing in their school band when they were younger. Not surprisingly, the average age of our audience members was over 40 - and especially over 55. That's why it is very encouraging that we have so many young people in our band.

By using creativity, problem solving and math concepts, 3rd grade students will create physical representations of the animals that they are learning about in science. For the fourth grade, social studies standards will be addressed, and students will use communication, creativity, and problem solving to create physical representations of state birds from the states that students are learning about. The residency will be considered successful if the following criteria are met: 1. Students are able to use and incorporate polymer clay, armatures, color mixing and millefiori/caning techniques to make a 3-dimensional form. 2. Students are able to successfully create unique 3-dimensional representations of predator and prey animals and state birds. 3. Students are able to talk about their use of elements and principals of art to represent the unique qualities of their animals or birds. We will also know that we have achieved our goals by documenting the end products from each residency with photographs.

The change we expect as a part of the project is to successfully complete our Capital Campaign to launch two prototype projects that we believe will have a regional and national impact: 1) The YES! House is a creative economic development concept; transforming an underutilized, Main Street, historic building into a multi-use facility for local residents to connect and create with each other. Through contributions from individuals and local businesses we have now stabilized the building, repaired the roof, and gutted and cleaned the main floor and basement. The next phase of the process will be to bring the community in on the physical design of the space, and finally, on the actual build out of the space. To that end, we are launching SAY YES! Capital Campaign to complete the fundraising needed to finish the space. 2) The Small-Town City Artist in Residence program: The YES! House will also be home to an artist residency program embedding artists in the City of Granite Falls to collaborate with city departments on projects that address city-related initiatives, engage residents in planning processes, encourage active participation in civic life, inform the public on inner-workings of the City, and energize locations around Granite Falls with creative activity. To ensure that we are meeting our goals, we will conduct a pre and post-survey with our board and committee members that helps us measure the skills and tools gained from participating in these trainings.

We will know that we have been successful if we see an increase in knowledge and skills from the board and committee members that participated in trainings provided by Vela and when we have successfully completed Phase one and launched Phase two of our Capital Campaign.

The information gathered during the pilot year will be compiled into a complete, multi-media report that will be shared with primary partners. This report, once approved by partners, will be shared on a national level as a replicable model of innovative creative community and civic engagement. We will utilize many creative strategies for evaluation that will be developed with Springboard for the Arts and Art of the Rural artists.

They will also write AP style essays in preparation for the Advanced Placement Literature and Composition Exam in May at a passable level.

In the evaluation survey, I will collect data on the number of students who see professional theater for the first time, the number of students who would attend a theater event in the future, etc., and I will solicit personal reviews to include in the community involvement piece. 2) I will hold informal conversations with students on the bus ride home, in school the next day, and thereafter to elicit personal responses to having seen professional theater and encourage them to become lifelong theater attendees. Further, I will encourage my colleagues to ask the seniors about their field trip experience (in classes other than English).","Very few (22%) of the students had even a small amount of previous experience watching live theater.

As part of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) part of the goal is to show students how to go through the artistic process. It is important for students to go through the various stages of Ask, Imagine, Plan, Create, Test, Improve, and Share. Too often the idea of creating art is looked at as magic instead of an evolution of creative thought and process. Students will be documenting the process of creating their puppets. There is a daily data sheet that will be collected for the artist and teachers to review. This will help to make sure the students are grasping the concepts, show where they are struggling and help plan for the next day. Goal #2: Completed parade puppets will be used in a performance for the middle/elementary school. In most parades in our area, they do not have an artistically designed float or characters that walk in the parade. This residency will provide an opportunity to share with the community our parade puppets. Going through this process and seeing how it can be achieved and hopefully will inspire students and others in the community to take on more artistic endeavors. Goal 1: There will be a data sheet collected from the students each day. This will give the insight into how well they understand the project and who is doing what part of the project. It will also help the artist guide the students for the following day. Goal 2: Students will perform with the puppets at school and in summer parades for the community to enjoy. At the end of the residency, the students will rate the quality of the artist residency on the evaluation form. They will be reflecting on their participation as well as the artistic residency by Christopher Lutter Gardella.","Students thought experience was fun and thought the artist was knowledgeable, gave clear instructions, taught them new skills, and helped them individually.","Achieved proposed outcomes",,,4000,,"Dawn Odegard, Sharon Rupp, Steve Rupp, Jeremy Corner, Amanda Lecy, Susan Bones, Sonja Pederson",0.00,"Yellow Medicine East School District","K-12 Education","Arts in the Schools ",,"Yellow Medicine East School District Puppet Residency.

Students will be able choose and draw a spirit animal and make at least one spirit animal sculpture. 4. Students will have an enjoyable and worthwhile arts experience that includes learning, creating, collaborating, and sharing of their art. 5. Teachers, parents and our community will develop an increased awareness of the power that art and arts programs have to positively influence our students and communities. Our youngest students will be asked about their thoughts and feelings about their experience with John, and their responses will be recorded and tallied. Older students will be asked to fill out a short survey about their experience, and the artist, teachers, and administrators will fill out more detailed surveys that will ask for specific thoughts about what went well and what areas we need to work on for future artist in residency experiences. Attendees at the Art Show will be encouraged to fill out a very short survey about their responses to the student artwork at the show.

Additionally, with the Omeka website, we are receiving more requests from other Museums, curators, researchers, and estates than before. Much of it is because the form makes it easier for staff to be accessible and because there is information about the pieces readily available online. We anticipate that with more artworks online, we will be able to reach more people and provide the access to the collection in a way that we haven't been able to for decades. The intermediate term is we hoped that the images would be a good tool for educational staff. Programs are still being created for the next year and in relation to new exhibition. There hasn't been an educational program created with the images yet. However, some images were used on out mobile platform during previous exhibitions. The M has a mobile platform that is an extension of the interpretation in the exhibitions and visitors can learn more about the piece, artist, or something related to the piece in the exhibition. We anticipate that when the M's permanent collection is on exhibit in the future that the website and digitization of the collection will be an essential asset to the interpretation. For the long term, we hoped that this process would become a model for us to use going forward as we digitize the 4,500 works in the collection in the future. The digitization instruction manual that was created a through a Legacy grant in 2016 is being used today as a reference for defining metadata fields and standardized language. This grant has set a great precedent for our best practices of processing digitized images and metadata.

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

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

Improve the existing diversity percentage of the Internship Program student interns by 5% to 45% in FY16. The Diversity rate for FY15 was 40%. This was a decrease from FY14, however, our rate increased because of the We Are Hmong exhibit, placing a large group of interns to assist us with this project. This percent does not include the returning interns. In FY16 we have a 34% diversity rate however, we expect this to grow over the summer semester. We hope to reach a 40% diversity rate. These figures do not include returning students. Of those interns who returned to do multiple internships, the diversity rate of returning students was 57%. This tells us that interns from diverse communities are doing multiple internships that increase their skill level and make them more marketable in the workplace. 2. Have over 90% of interns state that the internship met their expectations, in a post survey conducted at the end of their internship. We have changed our survey tool in the past year. Instead of measuring intern expectations, we are using a Net Promoter Score. This adapts to our new evaluation system. We have an average Net Promoter Score of +54 for FY16; which we are very happy with. For FY16, 97.5% of interns surveyed said their internship increased their knowledge of current issues in the public history field. 95% said their internship increased their interest in working in a cultural institution. 86% said they would apply for a job at MNHS. The number of interns who rated their job skills as above average or higher increased from 35.5% at the beginning of their internship to 86.5% at the end of their internship. 93% of interns said their experience increased their interest in history. We are seeing a number of our intrns being hired. We are working with HR to try to measure this. 3. Interns will contribute approximately 9,000 hours across at least 20 departments. College interns worked in 19 departments/programs in FY15 totaling 18,400 hours. So far in FY16, college interns have worked over 8,000 hours in 15 departments.

Of this amount, up to $2,567,000 is for grants in the seven-county metropolitan area and cities with a population of 50,000 or greater. Grants must not be made for activities required to fulfill the duties of owners of lands subject to conservation easements. Grants must not be made from the appropriation in this paragraph for projects that have a total project cost exceeding $575,000. Of the total appropriation, $536,000 may be spent for personnel costs and other direct and necessary administrative costs. Grantees may acquire land or interests in land. Easements must be permanent. Grants may not be used to establish easement stewardship accounts. Land acquired in fee must be open to hunting and fishing during the open season unless otherwise provided by law. The program must require a match of at least ten percent from nonstate sources for all grants. The match may be cash or in-kind resources. For grant applications of $25,000 or less, the commissioner must provide a separate, simplified application process. Subject to Minnesota statutes, the commissioner of natural resources must, when evaluating projects of equal value, give priority to organizations that have a history of receiving, or a charter to receive, private contributions for local conservation or habitat projects. If acquiring land in fee or a conservation easement, priority must be given to projects associated with or within one mile of existing wildlife management areas under Minnesota Statutes, section 86A.05, subdivision 8; scientific and natural areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 84.033 and 86A.05, subdivision 5; or aquatic management areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 86A.05, subdivision 14, and 97C.02.

Of this amount, up to $2,567,000 was used for projects in the 7-county metro area and in cities with a population of 50,000 people or greater. This is a stand-alone program, but depends on support/technical advice from public land managers and habitat and acquisition specialists. Grant activities included enhancement, restoration and protection of forests, wetlands, prairies, and habitat for fish, game, or wildlife in Minnesota. A 10% match from non-state sources is required for all grants, and may be in-kind or cash. Applicants described the project, location, activity, habitat, benefit, etc. For acquisition projects, applicants described the parcel selection process. CPL Staff developed an RFP incorporating LSOHC priorities. Staff worked with applicants to submit applications, oversaw grant selection, prepared/executed grant documents, reviewed expenditures, approved payments/reports, monitored work, and assisted recipients with close-out. Staff complies with Office of Grants Management policies. The CPL program has 3 annual grant cycles- Traditional, Metro, and Expedited Conservation Projects (ECP). The Traditional and Metro cycles had one grant round beginning August 2017. Projects under $25,000 will have a simplified application. The ECP grant cycle had two rounds of funding. CPL staff reviewed applications for completeness. Technical Review Committees, comprised of habitat experts across the state and approved by the DNR Commissioner, reviewed and scored Traditional and Metro applications based on evaluation criteria (see attached). The DNR Directors of Fish and Wildlife, Eco Waters, and Forestry reviewed the committee?s recommendations and provide a final ranking to the Commissioner. Funding decisions were made by the Commissioner?s office. ECP grants are reviewed by CPL staff and DNR habitat experts using established criteria. The Director of Fish and Wildlife made final funding decisions for ECP. Grantees were required to submit annual and final accomplishment reports. Grantees were paid on a reimbursement or ?for services rendered? basis, meaning payment is made to the grantee after work has been performed. Proof that the vendor was paid must be submitted to staff before additional payments are made. Funds were advanced for acquisitions to accommodate cash flow needs.

Of this amount, $3,692,000 is for grants in the seven-county metropolitan area and cities with a population of 50,000 or greater. Grants shall not be made for activities required to fulfill the duties of owners of lands subject to conservation easements. Grants shall not be made from the appropriation in this paragraph for projects that have a total project cost exceeding $575,000. Of this appropriation, $596,000 may be spent for personnel costs and other direct and necessary administrative costs. Grantees may acquire land or interests in land. Easements must be permanent. Grants may not be used to establish easement stewardship accounts. Land acquired in fee must be open to hunting and fishing during the open season unless otherwise provided by law. The program must require a match of at least ten percent from nonstate sources for all grants. The match may be cash or in-kind resources. For grant applications of $25,000 or less, the commissioner shall provide a separate, simplified application process. Subject to Minnesota Statutes, the commissioner of natural resources shall, when evaluating projects of equal value, give priority to organizations that have a history of receiving or a charter to receive private contributions for local conservation or habitat projects. If acquiring land or a conservation easement, priority must be given to projects associated with or within one mile of existing wildlife management areas under Minnesota Statutes, section 86A.05, subdivision 8; scientific and natural areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 84.033 and 86A.05, subdivision 5; or aquatic management areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 86A.05, subdivision 14, and 97C.02. All restoration or enhancement projects must be on land permanently protected by a permanent covenant ensuring perpetual maintenance and protection of restored and enhanced habitat, by a conservation easement, or by public ownership or in public waters as defined in Minnesota Statutes, section 103G.005, subdivision 15. Priority must be given to restoration and enhancement projects on public lands. Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 13, applies to grants awarded under this paragraph. This appropriation is available until June 30, 2018. No less than five percent of the amount of each grant must be held back from reimbursement until the grant recipient has completed a grant accomplishment report by the deadline and in the form prescribed by and satisfactory to the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council. The commissioner shall provide notice of the grant program in the game and fish law summary prepared under Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.051, subdivision 2.

Over 24,000 acres were enhanced, 2,500 acres were restored, and 386 acres protected through these 70 projects. Thirty-eight counties had CPL projects completed in them through 47 unique organizations. The average project for the ML 2015 grants was $96,000, with few exceptions most projects were completed on time and many were under budget. Additionally, the awarded grant partners contributed over $1.7 million in in-kind or cash match, far exceeding the 10% requirement.  ",,"The CPL Program fulfills MS 97a.056 Subd. 3a, directing LSOHC to establish a conservation partners' grant program, encouraging and supporting local conservation efforts. $7,844,000 of the appropriated funds was available for grants. This is a stand along program but depends on the support and technical advice of local land managers, habitat and acquisition specialists, and support staff.  Grant activities include: enhancement, restoration, and protection of forests, wetlands, prairies, and habitat for fish, game, and wildlife. A 10% match from non-state sources is required for all grants. CPL staff develop a Request for Proposal and Program Manual incorporating LSOHC priorities, solicit applications, work with applicants to submit scorable applications, oversee grant selection, prepare/execute grant documents, review expenditure documentation, ensure financial integrity, make payments, monitor grant work, assist recipients with closing out agreements, and prepare required reports. CPL staff complies with the Department of Administration- Office of Grants Management policies. Application process:  A Request for Proposal/Program Manual was posted on the CPL website in August 2015. Document contains all grant program information.  Applications are submitted on the online grant application system. Applicants use the mapping tool in the application to map project sites. Applications are accepted until September 2015 for round 1 of all grant cycles. Expedited Conservation Project (ECP) applications and applications for less than $25,000 have a shorter application form. The application system accepts ECP applications until funding runs out, but is designed for 5 rounds of applications. Traditional (statewide) applications were accepted once, Metro applications were accepted twice, and ECP applications were accepted three times.  Grant Selection Process:  Cpl Grant Program Staff review applications for completeness. Technical Review Committees, selected by the Commissioner of Natural Resources, evaluate applications based on criteria below. A final score is given to all applications. Committees include representatives from the DNR, BWSR, UMN, USFWS, USFS, counties, and other local government and non-profit organizations. A final ranking committee of Directors of the DNR Divisions of Fish and Wildlife, Ecological Resources/Waters, and Forestry consider the technical review committee, division and regional DNR comments, and recommend projects and funding to the Commissioner. ECP grants are reviewed by CPL staff, using criteria established for each type of project, and make recommendations. Division of Fish and Wildlife leadership make final decisions. CPL Grant Program Staff work with grantees to complete financial reviews, grant agreements, and other paperwork. Work may not begin until grant contract is executed. Applications are evaluated on these criteria:  Amount of habitat restored, enhanced, or protected Local Support Degree of collaboration Urgency Multiple benefits Consistency with current conservation science Adjacent to protected lands Full funding of project Budget/cost effectiveness Public access for hunting and fishing Use of native plant materials Applicants' capacity to successfully complete and sustain work Project Reviews and Reporting:  Grantees submit annual accomplishment reports on forms provided by CPL staff, based on LSOHC report forms. Reports account for the use of grant and match funds, and outcomes in measures of wetlands, prairies, forests, and fish, game, and wildlife habitat restored, enhanced, and protected. The report must include an evaluation of these results. A final report is required by all grantees 30 days after project completion. CPL Administration Budget: Grant administration costs total $144,000, include salary/fringe for grants staff, direct and necessary costs, travel, supplies, and expenses. An Internal Service Level Agreement (SLA) is developed with MNIT to update/manage the online grant application system.  DNR Land Acquisition Costs:  Applicants are required to budget for DNR Land Acquisition costs that are necessary to support the land acquisition process for parcels to be conveyed to the DNR. These costs are billed to awarded grants on a professional services basis DNR Technical Support:  The Division of Fish and Wildlife provides ongoing technical guidance, helping applicants prepare grant proposals and meet requirements for working on state lands. Project development and oversight is provided by area managers and additional guidance is provided for land acquisitions.  Grantee Payment:  Grantees are paid on reimbursement basis, meaning payment is made to the grantee after work has been performed or materials purchased, but before the vendor is paid by the grantee. Grantees provide proof that work is completed or a purchase made to receive payment. Proof that the vendor was paid must be submitted to CPL staff before additional grant payments are made. Payment advances may be made for acquisitions with a signed purchase agreement. Partial payments are allowed. Funds are built into grants for required Legacy logo signage and forms of acknowledgement/notification including, but not limited to, local news advertisements announcing completion of grantees projects.   ",2015-07-01,2019-11-18,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,"Kathy ",Varble,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Road Box 20","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5216",kathy.varble@state.mn.us,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Becker, Brown, Carlton, Carver, Cass, Dakota, Douglas, Fillmore, Goodhue, Grant, Hennepin, Itasca, Kanabec, Kandiyohi, Kittson, Koochiching, Lake, Lake of the Woods, Martin, Meeker, Mille Lacs, Murray, Nobles, Olmsted, Otter Tail, Pine, Pipestone, Polk, Pope, Ramsey, Rock, Sherburne, Sibley, St. Louis, Stevens, Washington, Wilkin","Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Northern Forest, Prairie Region, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/conservation-partners-legacy-grant-program-statewide-and-metro-habitat-phase-vii,,,,

This project will digitize the surveyor's field notes from January 21, 1862, and a herbarium specimen book of local Winona flora compiled in the 1890s by a student attending Winona State Teachers College (now Winona State University). The surveyor's field notes provide a record of the Winona area as it appeared in the middle of the 19th century, including landmarks and natural resources. The herbarium specimen collection seems to have been compiled under Dr. John M. Holzinger, a faculty member in the late 1890s until the 1920s at Winona State Teachers College and an internationally renowned botanist. The items to be digitized are held by WCHS and housed at their main museum facility in the Laird Lucas Library and Archives. WCHS will grant WSU permission to make items publicly accessible through its digital repository, OpenRiver. In addition to the digitized materials, this project plans to construct a digital map from the 1862 surveyor's field notes. This map will reconstruct the mid-19th century Winona landscape, showing the vegetation, landmarks, and waterways as detailed in the field notes.

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

A list of proposed land restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Prairie habitats once covered one-third of the state but presently less than 2% remain. Native prairie, other grasslands that provides habitat for wildlife, and wetlands are key components of functional prairie landscapes that have the capacity to adapt to changing environmental conditions. While these appropriation only added 838 acres of grassland acres to the state through restoration, these funds enhanced a much larger area. Put another way, we restored and enhanced 24.3 square miles with these funds. That would be a strip of grassland habitat that would equate to a quarter mile wide stretching from Moorhead to Alexandria. None of this work was targeted at a specific species of wildlife. We used that approach that diverse productive habitats benefit a wide variety of both game and non-game wildlife species as well as any threatened or endangered species. In our restorations, we use very diverse seed mixes. This is obviously beneficial for pollinators. However, all those insects also create a food base for a large number of wildlife species. The structural diversity all those plant species create in the habitat allow every species to find an ideal niche in the grass as well as accommodates different life history stages of wildlife.","A total of 15,577 acres were affected: 838 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 14,739 in Enhance.",,,3632700,198500,,13,DNR,"State Government","We restored and enhanced a total of 15,577 grassland acres with 239 projects on Wildlife Management Areas, Scientific and Natural Areas, and Native Prairie Bank easements.","We select projects using a number of criteria and reviews to make sure the DNR were spending these funds in the best and most productive ways. We can summarize our results in the following table. Brome conversion 6 Interseeding 60 Grassland restoration 838 Prescribed Fire 10,550 Herbaceous Invasive Control 346 Goat Browsing - woody removal 71 Woody Removal 3,492 TOTAL 15,577 This appropriation involved the Southwest Roving Crews. These Crews allow the DNR to be very flexible. While they have a list of projects to work on, they can also respond fairly quickly if there's an enhancement opportunity shows up. For instance, a short dry period in a part of the state may allow them to conduct a late summer prescribed fire which was not in any of the original work plans. Roving Crews have begun experimenting with different burn seasons. The DNR and partners continue to host field days each summer to learn about management practices such as prescribed fire, conservation grazing, etc. We also regularly review the scientific literature to make sure we are applying the most up to date techniques in our management. We were also able to continue our experimenting with goat browsing in the SE to control buckthorn. SNA staff will monitor these sites over the coming years. This may provide a way to reduce chemical use and integrate some new and emerging agricultural practices, goats, into habitat management for the benefit of wildlife and the agricultural economy. The DNR has traditionally focused on game species such as pheasants. However, there is more and more interest in pollinators and biodiversity. Fortunately, just about every study out there shows that management and restoration for pollinators and songbirds often creates the best habitat for game species. Diverse, healthy, productive habitat is good for a wide range of species. These projects can also increase the amount of carbon absorbed and stored by the plants and soils on these sites. All of these projects, directly or indirectly, fit within the state's Climate Action Framework and other climate related activities. As we continue to use these funds, costs for projects will probably increase. In the early years of these funds, we completed a number of simpler or easier projects, the low-hanging fruit. Now we are left with the larger and more challenging projects. In our budget table, we prorated our budget for individual projects by the acres accomplished.

",,"Working with area managers at both MN DNR and USFWS, Pheasants Forever requested proposals to complete wetland restoration, invasive tree removal, prairie seeding, and prescribed fire on existing WMA's and WPA's in the Prairie zone. Projects were then ranked based on priorities including, T&E species, Conservation Plan Focus Areas (e.g. the MN Prairie Plan), size of the complex area, water quality benefits, and overall cost to complete. Once projects were selected for funding, Pheasants Forever restoration staff worked closely with area managers in order to develop restoration/enhancement plans. Once those plans were developed they were written into a statement of work that was sent to numerous contractors in order to solicit competitive bids following PF's procurement policy. Once a contractor has been awarded the contract, PF and agency staff monitored the restoration/enhancement work to ensure it was completed adequately. Pheasants Forever had proposed to enhance 7,800 acres of uplands and restore 45 acres of wetlands. We did fall short of our upland goal by enhancing 7,275 acres, as we gave priority to wetland restoration projects. This, however, caused us to far exceed our goal and restore 952 wetland acres, thus over-achieving our total acre goal by 382 acres. Additionally, due to the value of these wetland restoration projects, PF was able to bring more than $156,000 of federal match, specifically from the North American Wetlands Conservation Act, to this proposal.

Clean Water Legacy funding is being used to significantly increase (more than double) the number of lakes and rivers that are assessed for mercury contamination on an annual basis. Fish are collected during DNR fishery surveys, processed for laboratory testing, and analyzed for contaminants.

","Many outdoor recreationists enjoy fishing and eating the fish they catch. Unfortunately, much of the fishery is contaminated with chemicals, primarily mercury. This has resulted in the issuance of a number of fish consumption advisories. Fish contaminant data provide the basis for these advisories. They also provide some measure of the threat to other fish-consuming species, including mink, otter, and loons. In addition, the measurement of mercury levels in fish provides an important indicator of progress in attempts to decrease the release of additional mercury into the environment.

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) used fish IBI survey information in their watershed assessments for 81 lakes in four major watersheds. Based on the fish IBI lakes were determined to be impaired or meeting standards. We also made a list of lakes of exceptional biological quality which is being used to identify protection priorities in MPCA’s Watershed Restorations and Protection Strategies. We took on a new task of determining which factors are contributing to fish IBI impairments on lakes; we drafted 9 stressor ID reports for the MPCA. Aquatic Plant IBI: In FY15 EWR biologists organized analyzed and delivered aquatic plant data on 152 lakes in priority watersheds. A variety of DNR programs collect lake plant data; we used these data for the plant IBI assessments. To help maintain this important data source we finalized survey protocols for aquatic plant IBI assessments wrote a manual of these standardized survey methods and held training workshops for 150 DNR Fish and Wildlife staff involved in lake plant surveys. In addition we did more detailed in-lake surveys on eight priority lakes in the Rum River Watershed where there was not enough existing plant data to calculate an IBI. Biologists surveyed shoreline habitat and/or delineated emergent plant stands on 25 lakes in the Rum River and Mississippi River-Brainerd watersheds We also made progress enhancing software to gather and manage data which will make it easier for more biologists from other DNR programs to survey shoreline habitat and/or delineate emergent plant stands.",,,,956280,96351,,14.1,,,"The biological communities present in a lake are the result of cumulative effects of natural and human-caused influences within the entire area of land and water that flows into the lake (i.e., the watershed).

Laws, Chap. 2 Art. 4 Sec. 2 Subd. 8","$150,000 each year is for grants to the Minnesota Civic Education Coalition: Kids Voting St. Paul, the Learning Law and Democracy Foundation, and YMCA Youth in Government to conduct civics education programs for the civic and cultural development of Minnesota youth. Civics education is the study of constitutional principles and the democratic foundation of our national, state, and local institutions and the study of political processes and structures of government, grounded in the under-standing of constitutional government under the rule of law. ","1.  Complete the redesign of the teachingcivics.org website, adding student and teacher engagement tools such as polling, forums, conversations, and data collection which will help build stronger civic education efforts throughout the state. 2.  Add 100 lessons to teachingcivics.org and continue to update content and links. 3. Enhance student programs by (a) increasing the number of students and schools participating in grant supported civic education student programs with particular focus on high needs schools; (b) updating programs by integrating technology when appropriate; (c) providing professional development for teachers; (a)promote student programs such as We the People and Project Citizen in communities that currently are not participating on either a local or state level. (b) In some cases, the use of technology to connect students in different communities with statewide events will help expand program participation and will be pursued by using technology already available in communities. (c)Teachers will be supported in their efforts to implement high quality civic education using proven practices through professional development experiences. This programming will be co funded by grants from the Minnesota Department of Education and others (currently the federally funded James Madison Legacy Project). For example, the Legacy grant will provide critical resources to support LLAD's Update Institute which focuses on Minnesota and federal civic knowledge content and current issues. 4. Help partners conduct high quality civic education programs through activities such as professional development support, program design consultation, and stronger civic education partnerships.

A. Eight full-length unedited HD video interviews/oral histories with the following Minnesota architects and educators: 1. Vincent James, FAIA and Jennifer Yoos, FAIA, of VJAA architects. The firm, Vincent James Associates Architects, was founded in 1995 and was named National AIA Architecture Firm of the Year in 2012. Vincent and Jennifer are both Minnesota-born and children of academics. Writing and teaching have been important parts of their architectural careers. Significant award-winning commissions include the St. John's Abbey Chapter House and Chapel in Collegeville, MN; the Bruce and Judy Dayton house overlooking Lake of the Isles; the Rowing Club boathouse in Minneapolis; and the Charles Hostler student center at Tulane University. 2. John Lackens, FAIA, and Herb Ketcham, FAIA. After working at Cerny Associates, they founded the Architectural Alliance in 1970 with Bob Bell, based on a model inspired by the Bauhaus. The firm designed several corporate headquarters in the Twin Cities, including Land O'Lakes, which earned a 25-Year Award from AIA-MN, and developed a specialty in aviation architecture, starting with MSP, which has become a major part of the firm's work today. Herb and John developed an innovative fee structure and are proud of the transfer of ownership in the firm that has fostered new leadership. 3. Leonard Parker, FAIA, and AIA-MN Gold Medal winner, was born in Poland. His family escaped to the US in 1923 and Leonard grew up in Milwaukee, WI. A bicycle trip to Racine to see the Johnson's Wax headquarters, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, convinced Leonard that he wanted to become an architect. He was working for Eero Saarinen when he founded his own office, Leonard Parker Associates, in 1959 in Minneapolis. Important commissions include the Minnesota Judicial Building, the U of M Law School, and the Jewish Community Center in St. Paul. Leonard played a significant role in the creation of the Minnesota State Designer Selection Board. This was a posthumous interview with Francis Bulbulian, FAIA, and Gary Mahaffey, FAIA, partners in Leonard Parker Associates; and Aaron Parker, architect and Leonard's son. 4. Joan Soranno, FAIA, a design principal at HGA; and John Cook, FAIA, a senior project architect at HGA, together established a small in-house design studio within HGA that serves as an incubator for innovative design. The Lakewood Cemetery Garden Mausoleum and a new entrance pavilion for the Walker Art Museum are examples of their work. In the interview they speak of their complementary skills and how their collaborations work. 5. Dennis Sun Rhodes, Northern Arapahoe, founder of AmerINDIAN Architecture, grew up on the Wild River Indian Reservation in Wyoming. He is one of a very few Native American architects in the nation. Dennis brought Native American cultural identity and symbolism to the design of schools, colleges, public administration buildings and casinos. This interview included Dan Feidt, AIA, a co-founder with Dennis of AmerINDIAN and Great Horse architecture firms. 6. Edward Sovik, FAIA, was a towering figure in post-war church architecture and founder of SMSQ Architects in Northfield. Born and raised in China, the son of a missionary, Sovik believed church architecture should not be entrenched in the past, but reflective of contemporary life. This was a posthumous interview with Gary Johnson, AIA, and Pepe Kryzda, AIA. 7. Beverly Hauschild-Baron, Honorary AIA, was Executive Vice President of AIA-MN for more than 30 years. From this unique perspective, Beverly provided valuable insight into the profession of architecture and the many initiatives and causes in which Minnesota architects have been involved, as well as how the profession has changed over the years. 8. Val Michelson, FAIA, Russian born and trained architect, prisoner of war escapee, Michelson narrowly made it to the West. For Marcel Breuer, he supervised the complex construction of St. John's Abbey Church in Collegeville, and later founded his own firm, Val Michelson and Associates. This was a posthumous interview with John Yust, AIA, David Bowers, AIA, and Daniel Feidt, AIA. B. Eight edited 10-15 minute summary versions of each interview suitable for online viewing and public presentations. Each short version includes highlights of the full interview, enhanced with additional photography and graphics. They are produced at a professional level with custom lighting and sound recording. They are also available through MNSAH's website: http://www.mnsah.org/programs/modern-masters; and through MNSAH's Vimeo site: https://vimeo.com/mnsah. Northwest Architectural Archives will be the permanent home to edited and uncut digital videos of the interviews along with full transcripts. C. Full written transcripts of each interview for the historical record. To be available online from the MNSAH website and at the Northwest Architectural Archives. Copies are attached to this report. D.

There were roughly 250 attendees. A report was also given to the MNSAH membership, E. MNSAH-Minnesota Modern Masters (MMM) has been given a Special Award from AIA-MN. Tom Fisher, Professor and Director of the Minnesota Design Center at the U of MN, described MMM as ""one of the most important archival projects ever attempted in the history of Minnesota's architecture."" He further observed that through its documentation of Minnesota's leading architects, educators, and journalists, the MMM program underscores the important truth that ""buildings are not just created for people; they are also created by people and we can never fully understand the ideas that drive our architecture without also comprehending the ideas of the people who designed or critiqued it.""

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

Through its innovative and nationally recognized process of identifying and mitigating agricultural risks to water quality, the MAWQCP delivers on-farm conservation that helps protect and restore Minnesota’s lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater. The MAWQCP is a national demonstration project that is operated as a federal-state partnership between the State of Minnesota, the United States Department of Agriculture, and Minnesota’s 88 soil and water conservation districts (SWCDs). The certification program has also partnered with industry leaders including Land O’ Lakes Inc., Hormel Foods, and Central Farm Service to promote the program and enroll additional acreage. Farmers and landowners who treat all risks to water quality on their operation are certified and are deemed to be in compliance with any new water quality laws or rules for 10 years. Certification gives farmers and the public greater certainty about regulatory standards and assures the public that Minnesota’s farmers are doing their part to protect water quality.

Those who implement and maintain approved conservation practices will be certified and in turn obtain regulatory certainty for a period of ten years. This program will help address concerns about changing regulatory requirements from multiple state and federal agencies. Certainty is a commitment provided by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA), the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR), and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR). For more details about  the program, please visit the Ag Water Quality Certification Program webpage on the MDA's website. ","The Minnesota Agricultural Water Quality Certification Program began certifying farms in pilot watershed areas in June of 2014, and began certifying farms statewide in July 2015. As of February 3, 2025, there are 1,583 certified farms that represent 1,103,811 current acres. An additional 2,968 new conservation practices are being adopted as a result of this program. Over the lifetime of the program 1,115,572 acres have been certified.   ","The Minnesota Agricultural Water Quality Certification Program (MAWQCP) is a first of its kind, voluntary program that supports the implementation of conservation practices on a field-by-field, whole farm basis. Through its innovative and nationally recognized process of identifying and mitigating agricultural risks to water quality, the MAWQCP delivers on-farm conservation that helps protect and restore Minnesota’s lakes, rivers, streams, and groundwater. The MAWQCP is a national demonstration project that is operated as a federal-state partnership between the State of Minnesota, the United States Department of Agriculture, and Minnesota’s 88 soil and water conservation districts (SWCDs). The certification program has also partnered with industry leaders including Land O’ Lakes Inc., Hormel Foods, and Central Farm Service to promote the program and enroll additional acreage. Farmers and landowners who treat all risks to water quality on their operation are certified and are deemed to be in compliance with any new water quality laws or rules for 10 years. Certification gives farmers and the public greater certainty about regulatory standards and assures the public that Minnesota’s farmers are doing their part to protect water quality.

A new feature, This Day in Minnesota History, a Minnesota book of days, was added. The online newspaper MinnPost published MNopedia articles weekly. MNopedia partnered with the MNHS's Press, Education, and Public Programs departments to actively reach out to 7,800 visitors at 28 events, including visits to historic sites, History Center public programs, teacher workshops, and the Minnesota Library Association and Minnesota Educator Academy conferences. MNopedia's return visitation has increased by 4.9 percent for the period Jan. 1-Nov. 15, 2015, over the same period the previous year, while still reaching a high percentage of new users. MNopedia is commissioning new content on American Indian topics and overviews of Indian Americans and Latinos in Minnesota.

This work leads to more enduring water quality and other environmental outcomes. Conservation planning assistance: We advised 5 One Watershed One Plan pilot projects supplying often substantial technical data on request. We led communities in using the Zonation conservation planning model to identify priorities in 3 watersheds where invited by LGUs or the MN Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). Connecting water quality and land use: We started developing several new products: Tools to help LGUs and the MPCA add local land use ordinance information and strategies to watershed restoration and protection strategy (WRAPS) reports; an inventory of local ordinances with beyond-minimum standards that protect water quality; a model ordinance that includes some of these higher standards; and a fact sheet for permit applicants about designing culverts that protect floodplains. Forest Stewardship Plans: We worked with landowners Soil and Water Conservation Districts and consultant foresters to write 42 forest stewardship plans covering 3 743 acres in targeted watersheds with lakes that are home to tullibee—an important prey fish that needs cold clean water to survive. We also targeted plans to forested watersheds in parts of southeastern MN to improve water quality in streams and rivers.

The school is currently going through a transition with a number of older artists retiring. Replacing them will be a challenge and takes time. The board has started its class selection process early this year with the hope of acquiring a new batch of teachers and classes in 2018. Milan Village Arts School prides itself in the quality of its classes and is not intending on adding classes simply to expand offerings. It is important the new classes are a good match for the school, our curriculum, and our students. This takes time. We are also hoping to attract more instructors from our region. Our goal is to add a further ten - fifteen classes by 2019. Goal 2) Originally a one-day event, the Spoon Gathering has now grown into a full week of carving, demonstrations, workshops, presentations and pre-event classes. Every year is a growing challenge. While interest grows, we plan to keep improving the event and make it as successful as possible. Our goal is to keep growing the Spoon Gathering while branding Minnesota as the center of green woodworking in the US. Goal 3) After a year of consolidation and planning, 2019 will be a time to launch new initiatives. Our goal is to implement at least one new major project in 2019. Goal 1) A review of the classes on offer in the 2019 Class Schedule will be the best way of evaluating the growth of classes. Goal 2) We actively seek feedback from event attendees though a feedback form and consultation. There is a lot of energy from a lot of people that contribute to the success of the Spoon Gathering. The interest and support are not waning. In fact, it is growing. Goal 3) Late 2018 and 2019 represent the beginning of a new phase with unlimited growth possibilities for the school. What we implement will be the evaluation.","MVAS has a record number of classes for the 2019 - 2020 teaching year. We expect to teach some 70 - 80 classes for the year ranging from one to five days.

Measurement would be based on the increase in classes offered, so would be easy to monitor progress and success for this goal.","The goals of the Organization as indicated in the original grant application were successfully met. The Organization was able to hire a part-time employee later in the year, which was one of the goals. Although the position is very part-time, it still allowed for progress in that direction with the plan to increase hours in the future. Another goal was to be able to repay one half of the private loans received by the Organization, which allowed for the purchase of the Arts Council’s building in 2013. This goal was successfully accomplished without compromising the financial integrity of the Organization or depleting needed reserves.

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

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

Clean Water funding has allowed the MDA to increase the number of detectable pesticides, increase the sensitivity of detection of certain pesticides and increase the overall number of samples that can be analyzed on an annual basis. As a result, Minnesota’s pesticide water monitoring program is one of the most comprehensive programs in the country and is regarded as a national leader. The MDA increased the number of detectable pesticides from 44 in 2009 to 185 in 2022. Pesticides on the new method are now being quantified at a parts-per-trillion (ppt) level, which is a shift from the previous parts-per-billion (ppb) level. Approximately 1600 pesticide samples were submitted for analysis during 2010, an increase of 600 samples compared to 2009. This increase of 600 samples should be maintained, but may be lower if dry weather conditions persist. To learn more about our monitoring program, please visit MDA's Clean Water Fund website or the MDA's pesticide monitoring website. ","In 2011, the MDA laboratory purchased equipment for a liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analytical methods. This switch to new methods has greatly expanded the MDA's monitoring capability. Whereas in 2009, MDA routinely analyzed for approximately 44 chemicals requiring three different analytical procedures. Clean Water Funds have supported an increase in the number of detectable pesticides from 44 in 2009 to 185 in 2022. The most significant advancement of the new methods is the ability to quantify concentrations for many of these chemicals at much lower levels. ","In general, the MDA looks for pesticides that are widely used and / or pose the greatest risk to groundwater or surface water. The MDA follows a pesticide selection process which prioritizes the specific compounds to be tested.

Monitoring information is used to characterize and assess the extent of pesticide impacts to Minnesota's water resources. The Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) has been monitoring the state's water resources continuously for more than 25 years. With over two decades of monitoring data, the MDA operates one of the few programs with sufficient long-term data to evaluate changes in water quality over time. Clean Water funding has allowed the MDA to increase the number of detectable pesticides, increase the sensitivity of detection of certain pesticides and increase the overall number of samples that can be analyzed on an annual basis. As a result, Minnesota’s pesticide water monitoring program is one of the most comprehensive programs in the country and is regarded as a national leader. The MDA increased the number of detectable pesticides from 44 in 2009 to 185 in 2022. Pesticides on the new method are now being quantified at a parts-per-trillion (ppt) level, which is a shift from the previous parts-per-billion (ppb) level. Approximately 1600 pesticide samples were submitted for analysis during 2010, an increase of 600 samples compared to 2009. This increase of 600 samples should be maintained, but may be lower if dry weather conditions persist. To learn more about our monitoring program, please visit MDA's Clean Water Fund website or the MDA's pesticide monitoring website. ","In 2011, the MDA laboratory purchased equipment for a liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analytical methods. This switch to new methods has greatly expanded the MDA's monitoring capability. Whereas in 2009, MDA routinely analyzed for approximately 44 chemicals requiring three different analytical procedures. Clean Water Funds have supported an increase in the number of detectable pesticides from 44 in 2009 to 185 in 2022. The most significant advancement of the new methods is the ability to quantify concentrations for many of these chemicals at much lower levels. ","In general, the MDA looks for pesticides that are widely used and / or pose the greatest risk to groundwater or surface water. The MDA follows a pesticide selection process which prioritizes the specific compounds to be tested.

Serving approximately 7,000 students annually, Play the Past demonstrates how museums can use technology to create self-directed, personalized, responsive field trip experiences that deepen students' connection to history while honing their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Upon entering the museum's Then Now Wow exhibit gallery, students receive handheld devices pre-installed with the mobile application. The application enhances students' experiences and promotes interaction with the physical exhibit by encouraging them to answer questions, solve problems, and collect digital artifacts related to the exhibit and items in MNHS's vast collections. This ""digital backpack"" of collected artifacts is then accessed back in the classroom by teachers and students, further expanding on the field trip experience and enhancing student learning. MNHS recently added a new tool for Play the Past teachers while at the museum. MNHS now provides teachers with iPads to access their students' digital backpacks while in the gallery, allowing teachers to see students' progress in real time and students to explore the resources of the digital backpacks before reaching home. Over 90 percent of teachers reported that this new tool helped them to understand what their students were doing during Play the Past. Over 95 percent of teachers reported that their students were either extremely or very engaged with Play the Past. MNHS is also working with Dakota artists and activists to add more American Indian content to Play the Past, layering on quests that explore Dakota art, language, and food in the tipi area of the Then Now Wow exhibit. Based on the overall success of the program, Play the Past was recently awarded a grant in March 2015 for $199,936 from the National Endowment for the Humanities to expand the program from the Then Now Wow exhibit to also include the Minnesota's Greatest Generation exhibit.",,,2015-07-01,2016-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,MNHS,Legacy,"Minnesota Historical Society","345 Kellogg Blvd. W","Saint Paul",MN,55102,651-259-3105,,"Assessment/Evaluation, Digitization/Online Information Access, Education/Outreach/Engagement, Grants/Contracts","Minnesota Historical Society",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/play-past-field-trip-21st-century-learner,,,,

",,"78 Wetland acres and 650 Prairie acres (for a total of 728 acres) Restored.  265 Wetland acres and 220 Prairie acres ( for a total of 485 acres) Protected in Easement.  95 Wetland acres and 1,500 Prairie acres (for a total of 1,595 acres) Enhanced.  A total of 2,808 acres impacted. ",,187100,"Audubon Funds, Landowners ",1730000,,,0.89,"Audubon MN and MLT","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Protect and restore 590 acres of significant wildlife habitat through conservation easements and restoration projects on private lands within Important Bird Areas with an emphasis on those located in within priority areas identified in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan. ",,"Audubon and Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) designed the Protecting and Restoring Minnesota's Important Birds Areas Program to provide solutions to declining grassland and waterbird populations due to habitat loss in western Minnesota. This program is unique for several reasons: 1) the emphasis on Important Bird Areas, which are essential to maintaining healthy and diverse bird populations in Minnesota; 2) a commitment to protecting and restoring working grasslands, remnant prairies and threatened wetlands within these IBAs; 3) the utilization of the cost- effective, reverse-bid model of evaluating and paying for conservation easements. In the Tallgrass Aspen Parklands, Audubon utilized a GIS analysis which found that within these IBAs, there are a total of 339,616 acres of private lands. Of those, 105,000 acres (31%) could be considered wildlife habitat worthy of conservation (e.g., wetlands, grasslands or woodlands). More specifically, private lands that are both within an Important Bird Area and a Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan core area total 195,480 acres, of which 51,576 (26%) could be considered of conservation value. It is this 26% of high priority private lands that this project targeted for protection, restoration, and enhancement in the Tallgrass Aspen Parklands. Specific tracts for easements were identified through a targeted application process as part of this Program’s innovative scoring system. The evaluation and payment strategy was based on MLT’s successful Avon Hills and the Wetlands Protection Initiative, which both used a science-based ranking system and reverse-bid model to leverage the State’s investment on these high-value wildlife lands. Audubon and MLT focused restoration/enhancement efforts on IBAs and the Prairie Plan’s priority areas within western and northwestern Minnesota where these efforts would most benefit target species. Restoration/enhancement work occurred on public lands and private lands previously protected by MLT under this grant and existing USFWS conservation easements. Easement lands, although permanently protected, often have a significant need for habitat restoration and enhancement. In addition, program partners restored and enhanced 524 acres of habitat within Glacial Ridge National Wildlife Refuge, as part of the largest tallgrass prairie restoration projects in North America. These acres enabled MLT and Audubon to further increase the value of these respective lands for focal species by targeting priority lands prioritized by the USFWS. Using this model, Audubon Minnesota and MLT protected four properties totaling 485 acres through perpetual conservation easements and restored and enhanced 2,323 acres of habitat on permanently protected public lands and private lands protected through publicly funded conservation easements by the USFWS and MLT. Properties protected through conservation easements under this Program: Skull Lake (Peterson) – Kittson County. 80 acres The property falls within the Kittson-Roseau Aspen Parkland Important Bird Area and within the Aspen Parklands Core Area. The property protects portions of two rare wet prairie native plant communities and is within 3.5 miles of a 7,000+ acre unit of Skull Lake Wildlife Management Area and four miles of The Nature Conservancy’s Wallace C. Dayton Conservation and Wildlife Area. The property supports sharp-tailed grouse and their courtship leks. Skull Lake (Pines Land) – Kittson County. 105 acres The property lies within the Kittson-Roseau Aspen Parkland Important Bird Area and within the Aspen Parklands Core Area. The property is located within a complex of natural habitats that provide habitat for elk, moose, gray wolf and black bear. Skull Lake WMA, which is identified by MBS as being of outstanding biodiversity significance, is located less than two miles to the south of the property. Skull Lake (Paine-Smude) – Kittson County. 160 acres This spectacular property lies within the Kittson-Roseau Aspen Parkland Important Bird Area and within the Aspen Parklands Core Area. The property borders the 7,000+ acre Skull Lake Wildlife Management Area to the north and 230-acres of land owned by The Nature Conservancy to the east. The property consists of five native plant communities, some of which are considered rare or imperiled in Minnesota, including Northwestern Dry- Mesic Oak Woodland, Bur Oak- (Prairie Herb) Woodland and Dry Barrens Prairie (Northern). The property is located within a site of high biodiversity significance, as ranked by Minnesota Biological Survey. Gilchrist Lake (Mulvaney) – Pope County. 140 acres The property lies in close proximity to over 6,000 acres of existing protected lands that are located within five miles of the Property. The wetlands and lakes in this area form the heart of Minnesota’s prairie pothole ‘Duck Factory’ that is of continental significance for waterfowl reproduction. The rolling terrain found on the property con¬tains a mosaic of mesic hardwood forests, a variety of wetlands, and remnant native prairie. It also contains 4,588 acres of undeveloped shoreline on a bay of Gilchrist Lake, a popular recreational lake. A wide variety of wildlife frequents this property, including many species of migra¬tory waterfowl and Species in Greatest Conservation Need. For this Program, MLT: 1) identified, contacted and negotiated with interested landowners; 2) completed four perpetual conservation easements totaling 485 acres; 3) documented property conditions and developed habitat management plans for; 4) dedicated funds for the perpetual monitoring and enforcement of those easements; 5) managed restoration/enhancement of 1,580 acres of private lands protected through publicly funded conservation easements held by MLT and USFWS. Audubon Minnesota: 1) served as Program Manager and local point of contact; 2) assisted with landowner identification and easement site assessments; 3) managed habitat identification and prioritization on the conservation easements; 4) managed the restoration/enhancement of 743 acres of lands which are protected through publicly-funded conservation easements or in public ownership; 5) managed the restoration/enhancement of 524 acres of lands funded through MLT's appropriation through a subcontract from MLT (those acres are attributed to MLT above); and 6) enhanced an additional 48 acres on Minnesota Land Trust easements conserved under this Program which are not included in any deliverable totals since they fall within the already acquired conservation easement.

In the Minnesota County Biological Survey description of the marsh community, special attention is given to two issues faced in Minnesota marshes - stable high water levels that reduce species diversity, often to a point at which a monotypic system evolves, and the ""invasion of marshes by the non-native species narrow-leaved cattail"" and its hybrids. Both of these issues were directly addressed by the major cattail control activities involving the Roving Habitat Crew, along with water level management that will now be possible through because of newly installed wetland infrastructure projects.","A total of 4,745 acres were affected: 50 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 4,695 in Enhance.",,,2357300,105900,,3,DNR,"State Government","Funding through this appropriation enhanced 4,745 acres of wetland habitat.

Work by the Region 3 Roving Habitat Crew enhanced 1,678 wetland acres through work on prescribed burns, drawdowns, herbicide applications, and removal of woody vegetation. Finally, survey and design work on 16 projects gathered information for possible future construction.

Engineering and Construction Projects - Projects were undertaken to provide shallow lake and wetland enhancement totaling 1,020 acres through the engineering and construction of a water control structure replacement at Albion WMA in Wright County (300 acres) and another water control structure at Carlos Avery WMA Pool 9 (400 acres), a fish barrier at Shakopee Lake in Wright County (200 acres), and work at Lac qui Parle WMA to improve water management at the Killen Moist Soil Unit (120 acres). Fifty acres of wetlands were restored in Cottonwood County. Stand-alone Engineering - Shallow lake and wetland projects can be complex and require detailed surveys and engineering. Stand-alone engineering projects provide the initial work to guide future construction, establish detailed cost estimates, and identify potential issues. Sixteen projects had stand-alone engineering and ranged from simple feasibility studies to in-depth surveys and plan development. Nine of these projects were in the Prairie Ecosection, 2 in the Forest-Prairie Ecosection, 2 in the Metro Ecosection, 2 in the Northern Forest Ecosection, and 1 in the Southeast Forest Ecosection. Management Actions - A drawdown of Gilfillan Lake in Blue Earth County enhanced 210 acres. The property manager reported a very positive vegetation response following this drawdown. A large prescribed burn of wetlands at Beaches WMA in Kittson County resulted in 1,766 acres of enhancement. Burns of this size are possible through the use of aerial ignition (lighting fires with helicopters). In Washburn Lake in Aitkin County 21 acres were enhanced through the seeding of 1,064 lbs. of wild rice. Roving Habitat Crews - Roving Habitat Crews are teams of highly trained staff who are equipped to perform habitat enhancement projects on public lands. Funding from this appropriation was provided to the Region 4 Roving Habitat Crew to enable it to perform wetland enhancement activities through the addition of two roving crew members and their associated costs for three fiscal years. Typical wetland enhancement activities undertaken by Roving Habitat Crews include prescribed burns of wetlands, removal of invasive species and trees, and support of shallow lake drawdowns. Work by this Roving Habitat Crew directly impacted 1,678 acres. Shallow Lakes Program - The Shallow Lakes Program is a high-visibility program that uses single-focused Shallow Lakes Specialists to (1) perform standardized assessments of shallow lakes and (2) to bring about needed management or infrastructure changes where needed to enhance shallow lake habitat. Work by these Specialists guides shallow lake work by both DNR Wildlife staff and NGOs. Funding from this appropriation allowed the addition of a Shallow Lake Specialists at Windom.

This funding has been used to evaluate the effectiveness of conservation practices, share information from research and demonstration sites and enhance outreach and education to the agricultural community and local government partners. The MDA technical assistance staff support the Impaired Waters Process in Minnesota. Staff attend meetings and provide input for Watershed Protection and Restoration Strategies (WRAPS) and other planning documents. The MDA provides advice about the implementation of best management practices and supports on-farm evaluations. The MDA is also represented on multiple interagency teams to ensure consistency and coordination on research and demonstrations across state agencies. Through outreach efforts, the MDA ensures that agricultural issues are represented during scientific discussions that focus on water quality. Evaluating the Effectiveness of Agricultural BMPs: In many areas of the state, the MDA uses on-farm evaluations to help farmers compare different management practices and use the results to update knowledge and inform future management decisions. The MDA uses on-farm, edge-of-field monitoring to assess sediment and nutrient loss at the field scale and to evaluate the effectiveness of conservation practices. The MDA works with many partners including universities, crop consultants, soil and water districts, farmers, and other state agencies. Technology Transfer: The MDA works with many partners to share information about research and emerging technologies. The MDA provides in-field technical assistance, project coordination and technical advice. The MDA convenes technical advisory committees to share information about projects and gather input from subject matter experts. The MDA also meets regularly and provides technical advice to project partners including commodity groups, local SWCDs, non-profits and other state agencies. The MDA works directly with farmers and local government units to disseminate information and to ensure that scientific information gets in the hands of the end user. Outreach and Education: The MDA works with many partners to ensure that Clean Water Fund information is accurate and easily accessible. Brochures, fact sheets, videos, web pages, field days, presentations and meetings are used to deliver information to individuals and organizations.

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

The first press release announcing the launch of the Archive will be issued after the Independence Day holiday weekend on July 6, 2020. The Archive is published by the University of Minnesota Libraries at the following URL: https://mn.electionarchives.lib.umn.edu In the coming weeks, months, and years the P.I. will be able to track the various short-, medium, and long-term measurable outcomes as detailed below. The depth and breadth of the data collected, the unique features of the database, and the user-friendly responsiveness of the Archive website ensures this project is well-situated to realize these outcomes. The launch of the Archive is expected to generate an increased public and journalistic interest in and knowledge of Minnesota?s political history and elections. The number of visitors to and searches conducted via the website will be tracked daily using web analytics software. Media coverage of the launch will also be tracked by Archive director and P.I. Dr. Eric Ostermeier. It is expected that Minnesota journalists, as well as national journalists covering high profile Gopher State electoral races, will make extensive use of the comprehensive, user-friendly Archive to incorporate historical information and data into their reports on present-day campaigns and elections as well as for stand-alone pieces about Minnesota?s political history. In addition to continued use of web analytics, intermediate-term metrics documenting use of the Archive will include tracking media coverage of the Archive and journalistic use of its information and data using a combination of Google Alerts and various search engines. Dr. Ostermeier will also track interviews and historical information requests he receives from journalists as well as data requests from academics to assist with their scholarly work. Looking to the long-term, it is expected the Archive will not only sustain interest in Minnesota?s political history in future election cycles as a trusted, comprehensive resource users return to visit, but perhaps also a pilot program that will generate interest in the creation of similar Archives in other states. In addition to continued, long-term media and public use of the Archive, it is also projected that academics will utilize the Archive as a source for journal articles and books on Minnesota political history. Finally, it is expected that Minnesota students will gain a greater knowledge of Minnesota political history as educational institutions incorporate the Archive, and the associated writings produced at Smart Politics, into their curriculum in courses on politics, civics, and Gopher State history. The creation of comprehensive, user-friendly historical election archives for other states, whether built through the Smart Politics platform at the University of Minnesota Libraries, state governments, or other data curators, is another indicator to track this project?s long-term influence in shaping public education on state political history. The impact within educational institutions will be measured by tracking on-line syllabi and coursework that links to the Archive. Academic use of the data will also be determined through tracking citations in journals and books.",,3289,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",138411,,"David J.

MPCA and partners use this information in several parts of the WRAPS process especially stressor identification to better understand biological and water quality impairments improve pollutant load calculations and identify solutions. • Used the above information to recommend enduring multiple-benefit solutions that address root causes and promote watershed health and resilience in 40 of the 47 watersheds noted above. (See Nonpoint Source Restoration and Protection.) Participated in WRAPS meetings in most of the watersheds and reviewed several draft WRAPS reports. • Continued an effort begun in FY18 to streamline and enhance the hydrology and geomorphology information we contribute by developing consistent processes for evaluating hydrologic change at the major watershed scale and identifying subwatersheds where intensive stream stability and sediment supply studies would be worthwhile. • Continued developing regional curves for Minnesota to enable certain stream characteristics to be inferred based on drainage area and ratings for similar streams. Regional curves are used to validate stream analyses and help design stream restoration projects. In FY19 this involved stream surveys ongoing coordination with the US Geological Survey on sediment sampling in streams and new collaborative work to develop data collection standards for regional streambank erosion curves.

A needs assessment of the WCTSA identified an estimated 156 CNMPs that will be needed over a 3 year period. Of the 71 SWCD employees in the WCTSA, only 1 SWCD staff member is dedicated to nutrient management planning. Currently, there are approximately 1,450 miles of impaired stream and 132 impaired water bodies (covering 86,660 acres) in the WCTSA. This proposal will address this impairment by providing technical assistance for Comprehensive Nutrient Management Plans (CNMPs). A CNMP contains records of the current activities on a livestock operation, an evaluation of the existing environmental risks, and proposals to reduce the risk of negative impacts to the environment. A nutrient management plan is part of a CNMP. A completed CNMP will accelerate waste storage facility and feedlot BMPs by making farmers eligible for federal funding for implementation and the lack of technical assistance for CNMPs has slowed progress for implementation. This accelerated technical assistance will improve water quality through the implementation of BMPs. To accelerate this process, this grant will fund a Regional Planning Specialist (RPS) to address local resource concerns. The new position will be incorporated into the existing successful WCTSA conservation delivery partnership, which includes dedicated WCTSA engineering staff, local SWCD technical assistance, and NRCS partners. A CNMP and waste storage project would result in a significant reduction of phosphorus, nitrogen, and bacteria to these impaired waters and protect those waters that are not impaired. The RPS will work to eliminate the backlog and SWCD staff will receive training to ensure that a similar bottleneck does not return in future years doe to the need for accelerated technical assistance for CNMPs.

Jones perfected the quintessentially suave and wisecracking Bugs Bunny, the perpetually exasperated Daffy Duck, the hapless but optimistic Elmer Fudd, and created the incurably romantic Pep_ Le Pew and the eternal antagonists Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner. What's Up, Doc?, opening April 30, 2016, examines Jones' development as a filmmaker and visual artist and showcases many of his most significant films, which come to life through original sketches, animation cels, scripts, and on-screens.

Measuring progress on this outcome proved challenging. Informal conversations with visitors indicated some progress toward this outcome. The race boats rather than the signage initiated the majority for these conversations. Demonstrated articulation of increased understanding of the significance of wood boats and racing came in the form of probing questions from visitors seeking more information. Questions often focused on hull design, how engines operate, advancements in engineering, and the races these boats competed in. These provided insights into the selection of boats for the 2020 exhibit and topics for gallery talks. Intermediate Term: Leadership at the museum begins to properly allocate time, budget, and staff resources to exhibits. This outcome was achieved. This is demonstrated by the museum?s reorganization of financial management tools to more accurately document exhibit expenses and provide a more solid basis for funding future exhibits. The 2020 Exhibits and Education budget is $20,000. The individual hired to fill the Director of Communications and Programs position has her Master?s degree in History with an emphasis in public history and museum studies as well as several years of experience working in museums. Hiring an individual with this educational background and museum experience was a priority for the Board of Directors. The benefits of this hiring decision, along with committee growing exposure to standard museum practices, are being realized in early exhibit planning for the 2020 and subsequent seasons. Long Term: Minnesotans have a better understanding of the history and significance of wooden boats and wooden boat racing association in our history. Visitors have increased trust in our museum as a professional institution and credible source of information. Working in cooperation with the Antique Boat Museum and the Land-o-Lakes Classic Boat Club, Dixie Baby, the race boat in the exhibit on loan from the Antique Boat Museum, was displayed at the Minneapolis Boat Show in January 2020. This collaborative effort exposed hundreds of Minnesotans to the history of race boats and the engineering and technological advancements they embody and the opportunity to visit Legacy of the Lakes Museum to learn more. We anticipate this public exposure and LOLM?s collaboration Land-o-Lakes Club will increase museum attendance in the coming season and beyond. The Land-o-Lakes Boat Club is a multi-state organization that featured the Golden Age Race Boats exhibit in their publication and promoted it through social media.
