CD 10 has been identified as the largest contributing source of total phosphorus (TP) to Lake Ann (5,676 lbs/year). This constitutes over 68% of the total TP load entering Lake Ann. The total TP load into Lake Emma is 5,676 lbs/year. Lake Emma will require a 2,224 total TP load reduction, with a 1761 lbs/year load reduction from Lake Ann specifically given it is located directly upstream. Projects that reduce the amount of sediment (and associated TP) entering CD 10 will address the load reductions called for in the Lake Ann and Emma TMDL Implementation Plan (Wenck Associates, 2012). Based on current landowner interest and project adoption from the JD 15 BMP Inventory Implementation MDM Grant (C16-1476), our goal is the implementation of six (6) grade stabilization structures, eight (8) WASCOBS, and one (1) grassed waterway. If this goal is met, approximately 94.3 tons of sediment and 148.61 pounds of phosphorus will be removed from the total load entering CD 10 in a year. This reduction would account for 2% of the total TP load reduction called for in Ann Lake and 4% of the total TP load reduction for Emma Lake as called for in the Lake Ann and Emma Excess Nutrient TMDL Report (Wenck Associates, Inc. 2011).","Completed the sediment basin as proposed, resulting in an annual reduction of 514 tons of sediment (TSS) and 271 lbs of phosphorus.","achieved proposed outcomes",53400,"LOCAL LEVERAGED FUNDS",213600,2,,,"Wright SWCD","Local/Regional Government",,,"In 2016, the entirety of County Ditch 10 (CD) was inventoried and a final report detailing the results was completed (link provided in the abstract).

The projects must use practices demonstrated to be effective, be of long-lasting public benefit, include a match, and be consistent with total maximum daily load (TMDL) implementation plans, watershed restoration and protection strategies (WRAPS), or local water management plans or their equivalents. A portion of these funds may be used to seek administrative efficiencies through shared resources by multiple local governmental units.","The primary measureable outcome of this project is the reduction of sediment transport within the watershed. This project will reduce an estimated 670 tons of sediment per year. Sediment reduction will result in lower turbidity and improved water quality within Trout Brook, a designated trout stream, and lower turbidity and improved water quality in the Cannon River, which is impaired for excess turbidity. This project will install approximately 20 practices throughout the watershed.","Grant funds funded this project to achieve 743 tons of sediment reduced/year, exceeding the proposed goal.

Sediment reduction strategies have been prioritized in local water management plans and through TMDL implementation plans for the Cannon River and Trout Brook. Specific BMPs have been targeted for this project based on a completed subwatershed analysis which evaluated potential practices that would yield the greatest sediment reductions. 346 projects were identified and ranked through the subwatershed analysis, and field reconnaissance has been completed for all identified practices to determine feasibility. A cost-benefit ranking was developed to prioritize projects based on the cost per ton of sediment reduction over the contract life of each practice. Of the 346 practices that were identified and ranked, efforts are already underway and funding has been secured to install many of the top 50 ranked practices. This project is Phase 2 of the Trout Brook Watershed Initiative and will focus on the next-highest ranked practices. This project specifically targets practices with an annualized sediment reduction cost of less than $30 per ton of sediment. Approximately 20 practices will be installed through this project which will reduce an estimated 670 tons of sediment per year.

A list of proposed land restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"A statewide review of Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) found that wetlands are one of the three habitat types (along with prairies and rivers) most used by these species. The 5,000 acres of wetland enhancement will provide wetland management actions identified to support SGCN, including reversal of wetland degradation and control of invasives. 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 undertaken through channel cleanouts or that will now be possible through because of newly installed wetland infrastructure projects.","A total of 5,024 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 5,024 in Enhance.",60000,PPJV,1653600,44300,,2,DNR,"State Government","Funding provided through this appropriation enhanced 5,024 acres of wetland habitat. Eight wetland and shallow lake infrastructure projects were competed that enhanced 1,643 acres of wetland. Cattail spraying using a helicopter outfitted with an OHF-purchased spray unit and impacted impacted 1,762 acres. Work by the Region 3 Roving Habitat Crew enhanced 1,619 acres of wetland. Finally, survey and design work was initiated on four projects to prepare for future construction.","ML2016 Accelerated Shallow Lakes and Wetland Enhancement Phase 8 entailed multiple components. * Engineering and Construction and Shallow Lake/Wetland Infrastructure Projects - Eight individual projects were undertaken with funding from this appropriation. One project, Moose/Willow in Aitkin County, entailed extensive cleanout of an outlet channels, plus a new water control structure leading to better water level management. Downstream channel work is necessary outlets become clogged with sediment and vegetation and water levels in shallow lakes become abnormally high. Specialized equipment known as a Cookie Cutter removed accumulated sediments and other obstructions to surveyed levels. The shallow lake returned to a lower levels with resulting habitat benefits. Seven projects - Plum Creek (Murray County), Gopher Ridge (Kandiyohi County), Sedan Pond (Pope County), Bradshaw Lake (Scott County), Rum River and Jones Pool (both at Mille Lacs WMA, Mille Lacs County), and Amiret WMA (Lyon County) - were completed and involved engineering and construction of wetland/shallow lake infrastructure such as dikes and water control structures. In all of these projects, engineering was done in-house (i.e. DNR engineers) and private contractors were used for the construction. Finally, four infrastructure projects were engineered only, with construction planned for the future. Doing this initial engineering allows us to determine project feasibility, identify construction obstacles, and obtain accurate cost estimates for materials and construction. These engineering-only projects were accomplished with in-house (i.e., DNR) engineers. *Cattail Spraying - A DNR helicopter has been equipped with an OHF-funded spray unit and avionics to allow it to spray invasive cattails - one of the most significant problems that impact wetlands statewide. Utilizing this helicopter, in conjunction with Roving Habitat Crew members working as ground support, significant acres of invasive cattail can be sprayed annually. Funding from this appropriation was used to purchase herbicide and pay helicopter expenses. 1,762 acres were enhanced. This operation is highly coordinated with project solicitation in late winter. Activities that have to occur before actual spraying occurs include landing site selection and mowing, ground crew (i.e. roving habitat crew members) training, herbicide purchase, coordination with DNR Law Enforcement (who have oversight of the helicopter and for whom the pilot works), permit applications, and public notice publication. * Roving Habitat Crews - Roving Habitat Crews are teams of DNR staff who are equipped and trained to perform habitat enhancement projects on public lands. Funding from this appropriation was provided to the Region 3 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 (FY18-FY20). Typical wetland enhancement activities undertaken by Roving Habitat Crews include prescribed burns of wetlands, removal of invasive species and trees from wetlands, and support of shallow lake drawdowns.",,2017-07-01,2022-11-04,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ricky,Lien,"MN DNR","500 Lafayette Road ","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5227",ricky.lien@state.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Aitkin, Anoka, Blue Earth, Cass, Chippewa, Grant, Kandiyohi, Le Sueur, Lyon, Marshall, McLeod, Meeker, Mille Lacs, Morrison, Murray, Nicollet, Nobles, Pennington, Pine, Pope, Renville, Roseau, Scott, Sibley, Stearns, Todd, Wabasha, Wadena, Washington, Wilkin, Winona, Wright","Northern Forest, Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/accelerated-shallow-lakes-and-wetland-enhancement-phase-ix,,,,

",,"Approximately 30 species of waterfowl are regular migrants through Minnesota. More than a dozen breed and nest in Minnesota. While each of these species has its own particular habitat needs the common bond is a dependence on wetland habitat for survival. Meeting the needs of these waterfowl requires a complex of wetland sizes and types ranging from temporary and seasonal wetlands to large permanent shallow lakes.  Habitat work accomplished with this OHF appropriation contributes to the needs of these waterfowl and other wetland-associated wildlife. Five wetland/shallow lake infrastructure projects were designed and completed (Carlos Avery WMA, Anoka County; Joe River WMA, Kittson County; Cornish Flowage, Aitkin County; Mille Lacs WMA, Mille Lacs County; and Dry Sand WMA, Cass County).  These projects improved or replaced dikes and water level control structures.  These projects enhanced 3,079 acres of wetland habitat.  In addition to these design and construct projects, another four projects were design only.  Because of the complexity of many shallow lake and wetland infrastructure projects, we sometimes begin by bringing in engineers to survey and design potential projects.  We can use this initial information to develop cost estimates, obtain permits, and determine if and when to move ahead with construction.  Because design-only projects do not entail construction, no acres are claimed for these projects, as is consistent with our past reports. These four design-only projects were at Spohn WMA, Quistorff WMA, Aurzada WMA, and Ruff-Nik WMA, all in Todd County. 6,068 acres of invasive cattails were sprayed statewide.  This work was done in both 2015 and 2018.  The work in 2015 was done using private contractors, but in 2018 we were able to do the work using a state-owned helicopter outfitted with an OHF-funded spray unit and using the OHF-funded Roving Habitat Crews as ground support personnel. The acreage of cattails sprayed includes 13.3 acres of a new invasive grass that was discovered at McCarthy Lake WMA.  We were able to effectively deal with this potential threat thanks to the equipment and personnel we now have available.  While aerial spraying of monotypic stands of cattails can't resolve the problem statewide due to the extent of their coverage, property managers are excited to have aerial spraying as a means to improve wetland habitat at select sites.   Finally, a major prescribed wetland burn was funded out of this appropriation which enhanced 10,200 acres.  This was one of the largest prescribed burns ever done in Minnesota.  The effectiveness of this burn and it's relatively low cost have property managers considering future large wetland burns. In total, 19,365 wetland acres were enhanced by this appropriation, well above the Accomplishment Plan goal.

Based on HAPET evaluation strategies, modeling predictions can be made on the numbers of nesting waterfowl, grassland nesting birds, and other wildlife the acres affected by this grant application will produce.  Besides the obvious wildlife benefits, once restored, the lands acquired through this grant will provide additional water quality, groundwater recharge, and flood abatement benefits. These strategies are well tested and are supported by the greater conservation community here in Minnesota. Hunting and fishing stakeholders are very interested in increasing opportunities for hunting and fishing public access and have used WPA’s extensively in the past. To address concerns related to the erosion of county tax revenues due to public land, the Service and PF will notify counties prior to acquisition of lands. Once acquired, the Service will make a one-time Trust Fund payment to the County where the property is located.  In addition, the Service will make annual Refuge Revenue Sharing payments for all fee lands within the respective Counties. Funding for restoration of the properties will be solicited from partners. If this funding is available, budgeted Outdoor Heritage restoration funds under this proposal would be able to accomplish additional fee title w/o PILT acquisition funds. Wetlands, on the properties acquired, will be restored by either surface ditch “plugs” or breaking sub-surface tile lines. Grasslands will be restored by planting appropriate native grasses and forbs to converted grassland habitats.

Projects were developed and selected in conjunction with local and regional DNR staff.  All projects will meet standards and requirements for inclusion into the WMA system and DNR Commissioner approval will be received for any project funded under this proposal.  In addition to meeting the minimum WMA standards, additional criteria were used to develop the potential project list including: Does the parcel contain habitat restoration potential that will result in an increase in wildlife populations? Does the parcel build upon existing investments in public and private land habitat (landscape scale significance)? Does the parcel contain significant natural communities or will it protect or buffer significant natural communities? Does the parcel have the potential and focus for habitat protection and restoration in the future? Does the parcel provide multiple benefits (recreation, access, water control, water quality, lakeshore, local community support etc.)? All acquired lands will meet the minimum initial development standards for WMAs.  In addition, providing high quality habitat and keeping future management concerns in mind, all acquisitions will be restored and/or enhanced to as high quality as practicable, with the belief that quality and comprehensive restorations utilizing native species result in lower management costs.  Acquired croplands will be permanently retired and restored to diverse grasslands and wetlands to the fullest extent.  Enhancement work may include undesirable woody vegetation removal, water control structure installation, inter-seeding to increase diversity and structure, managed grazing, invasive species control, or any other activity that improves the diversity and health of the prairie-wetland habitat complex.  Pheasants Forever’s network of 76 Minnesota chapters and 26,000 members have been actively involved in protecting and restoring lands in partnership with the Minnesota DNR for 27 years and will continue to be a priority.  WMA’s are an integral component to the comprehensive conservation strategy within the prairie region of the state.  The WMAs within this proposal will not only protect, increase, and sustain wildlife habitat and populations; they will provide access and recreational opportunities, including hunting, to ALL Minnesotans, so fundamentally important to our outdoor heritage.

Not only were the protection outcomes met but they were exceeded by 464 acres, for a total of 1,584 acres of prairie and grassland habitat protection.  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 environmental challenges facing Minnesota, over a dozen leading conservation organizations developed a blue print for moving forward – the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan. This plan calls for several outcomes, including the protection of all remaining native prairie and the protection other grasslands through conservation easements. The two primary, state administered easement programs identified to accomplish this are  Reinvest in Minnesota Program (RIM) and Native Prairie Bank Program (NPB). Between the historic priority lands for RIM and NPB enrollment lies a mix or restored grasslands and low diversity remnant prairies – without any protection from conversion. In order to achieve the Minnesota Prairie Plans goals this appropriation allowed RIM and NPB to re-tool to better address prairie, grassland and wetland threats.  Originally, this appropriation aimed to enroll 520 acres of RIM easements and 600 acres of Native Prairie Bank easements. These acres were to be focused on priority landscapes identified in the Minnesota Prairie Plan and Local Technical Teams, comprised of local conservation organizations, had already been assembled and eagerly awaited funding to deliver these programs to willing landowners. Ultimately, 8 high quality native prairie parcels for a total of 980 acres (380 acres more than initial 600 acre goal) were 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. Additionally, 8 RIM easements for a total of 604 acres (84 acres more than initial 520 acre goal) were acquired through this appropriation to protect key grasslands that help connect high priority conservation lands, thus working towards building the prairie complexes identified in the Minnesota Prairie Plan.  Grasslands protected were ecologically evaluated and recommended by Prairie Plan Local Technical Teams, which are made up of multiple conservation organizations.     ",2014-07-01,2019-10-30,"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",,,"Big Stone, Clay, Cottonwood, Lac qui Parle, Lincoln, Marshall, Otter Tail, Pipestone, Redwood, Swift, Wilkin","Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/accelerated-protection-grassland-and-prairie-habitat-reinvest-minnesota-rim-and-native-prai,,,,

",,,,,,,,,,,,"Acquiring Land and Creating Opportunities - A Parks and Trails Strategic Objective is a program area representing DNR's commitment to one of the four pillars identified in the 25 year Legacy plan. The Legacy plan identifies its purpose to create new and expanded park and trail opportunities to satisfy current customers as well as to reach out to new ones. The purpose of this program is to call attention to the pillar, but also to centralize and streamline reporting on other related programs within the pillar. Thus, this program captures all the information about what are known as direct and necessary administrative costs of managing the three other programs that make up this pillar, as well as all information on the number of full time equivalent (or FTE) positions supported by the Legacy funds allocated to DNR Parks and Trails under this pillar. Direct and necessary administrative costs include a wide range of activities, such as accounting and managerial expertise; a list of administrative activities has been compiled in Minnesota Management and Budget's Guidance to Agencies on Legacy Fund Expenditure. Other costs included in this program include direct, non-administrative costs of doing the work of acquiring land and creating opportunities that do not fall directly in one of the three related programs. This includes a range of professional staff or contractor services and materials needed to do the work.

The most received compliment of the system is the size of the monitor that came with it. The microfilm system was installed at the end of January, 2015. We had an open house for the Prairieland Genealogical Society in April, 2015. From April, 2015 to December, 2015, we have been keeping track of staff and volunteer hours using the microfilm system and visitors' use of the microfilm system. Our goal for staff and volunteer use was set at 30 hours a month. On average, the use came out to be around 22 hours a month. Our goal for visitors' use of the microfilm reader was 20 hours a month. On average, the use by visitors was only around 5 hours a month. One of our initiatives of acquiring the microfilm system was for visitors to use the system for their own research. We feel we need to market/advertise by getting the word out more that we have the microfilm reader system in our research center and that it is available for public use.

Dr John Nicols facilitated the event withi help from language specialist Alex Kmett. The language specialist team worked with elder speakers to create and record audio lists. They continue to receive training in language acquisition and Ojibwe grammar and structure, to continually improve the quality of their work. The community event titled, Nagaajiwanaang Waakanawendangig Anishinaabemowin Maawanji'idiwin (the gathering of the ones who are caring for the language at Fond du Lac) was held on the FDL reservation on March 7th, 2015. This all-day event featured a talk by the new Ojibwe language co-ordinator for the FDL reservation, Dr. Janis A Fairbanks, and an introduction by elder Waasobiik Anna Gibbs of our video completed with the support of this MIAC grant. The animated film, how the Bear Lost It's Tail is complete and the play is fully scripted. We have shown the film on two reservations and in urban areas as well as released to the public. Goal 1 Outcome: Students were able to network with each other and with Dr. John Nichols abou thte on-going need for community contributions to the Ojibwe People's Dictionary as well as other communtiy language projects inlcuding the Algonquin Atlas. Dr Nichols trained students in methods of eliciting language and recording techniques to be able to make contributions to both these online resources. As a result of the training he has received to work as a Language Specialist in Goal 2, Alex Kmett was asked to help co-facilitate the transcrition workshop by Dr. Nichols. Dr. Nichols has also recently hired Mr. Kmett through the University of Minnesota to work on the Ojibwe People's Dictioniary after working with him on our projects. The facility of our Language Specialists has improved at an impressive rate. Not only will recipients of the audioi lists be able to improve their language, but the process of creating the audio lists is improving the language specialists' skills as well. They are learning how to become effective immersion instructors. In addition to producing audio lists with the elders, the language specialists are also working with the program director and elders to facilitate language games in an immersion environment. They learned how to translate the vocabulary required to communicate successfully the object and rules of games to the students. They record and transcribe the elder's translation to study the grammar and practice thier own pronunciation. The result has been impressive as their language skills have improved immensley. The thirteen students who received training in the transcription workshop were served directly. In addition to the students themselves, their skills and knowledge will impact other with whom they work or students who study with them.",,,,,,,,,"Tribal Government ","There are many goals in this project, each building on the Ojibwe language program already established on the Fond du Lac Reservation. The first being, to train thirty students in transcription methods and techniques and complete follow-up transcription projects. This will be done by conducting transcription training weekends for Ojibwemotaaidaa students to learn accepted methods and techniques for transforming audio recordings into written texts. Through transcription training and follow-up practice, students will advance more rapidly in language proficiency. The second goal is to identify and train three language specialists to work with elders in developing and recording audio vocabulary for existing Ojibwemotaadidaa immersion curriculum. Thirdly, an Ojibwe language fair will be offered for two years. These fairs will provide an opportunity for teachers and members of the greater Fond du Lac community to increase their awareness of language learning tools and resources.

",,,,,,,,,,"Shell Rock River Watershed District","Local/Regional Government","The Albert Lea Lake Management project replaced the previous Albert Lea Lake fix-crest dam with a 3-in-1 structure that included a rock riffle dam, a lake level management structure, and an electric fish barrier. The benefits from this project include improved aquatic and waterfowl habitat, invasive species management, and improved desirable fish populations.","The Shell Rock River Watershed District (SRRWD) encompasses 246-square miles in Freeborn County. The District includes 11 lakes that drain to the Shell Rock River, which flows into the Cedar River. Among the District’s lakes are Fountain Lake and Albert Lea Lake, located within the City of Albert Lea. These lakes are central to Albert Lea’s tourism industry and its identity.The previous Albert Lea Lake outlet structure and access bridge, installed in 1922, was in need of repair. The Albert Lea Lake Management and Invasive Species Control Project replaced the fixed-crest dam with a rock-arch rapids feature to control water levels. A lake level management structure was also constructed, as well as an electric fish barrier to prevent silver, bighead, and common carp and other benthic feeding fish from entering the lake.The project is expected to result in improved aquatic habitat, improved waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, an increase in desirable fish populations, and improved water quality and clarity for years to come. Specific benefits are outlined below.1. Rock-Arch Water-Level Control: The SRRWD replaced the old fixed-crest dam with a series of rock arches to provide a naturalized outlet to Albert Lea Lake. The upper-most rock arch is controlling the normal water level with the help of metal sheeting. There are two more rock arches behind the first, totaling 3 rock arches. 2.  Lake Level Management Structure: The installation of the structure to facilitate lake-level management gives the SRRWD flexibility to take action benefiting the health of the lake. Periodic lowering of lake elevations allows maximum in-lake sediment compaction, improvement of water clarity due to reduction in wind-generated turbidity, and time for plant colonization of shoreline and shallow-water areas. The resulting improvement in aquatic plant health benefits the entire lake system.3.  Electric fish barrier:  An electric fish barrier was installed and is used to reduce the population of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in Albert Lea Lake and to prevent the introduction of Bighead and Silver (Asian) Carp. Common carp uproot and consume aquatic vegetation, disturb and re-suspend phosphorous-rich sediments. The resulting increase in turbidity reduces light penetration—discouraging rooted plant growth—and contributes to algal blooms responsible for oxygen depletion. The destruction of aquatic vegetation by large populations of foraging fish also impacts waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, shoreline and littoral habitat, and game fish spawning habitat.Design and engineering of the project started in late 2013. Contracts and associated agreements for the dam were made in early 2014. The order of operations for the construction of the project includes:•    Installation of the cofferdam•    Construction of the water diversion channel•    Removal of the old dam and bridge•    Installation of the metal sheeting that holds the lake level•    Placement of the first rock arch along the sheeting•    Installation of the footings for the concrete work•    Concrete work for the fish barrier•    Concrete work for the draw down structure•    Finalize/seal all concrete•    Placement of remaining rock arches•    Removal of the cofferdam and water diversion channel•    Installation and fine tuning of the fish barrier componentThe main construction of the projects where completed in the spring of 2015. At the end of 2015, some calibrations of the electric components were needed on the electric fish barrier. After the ice melt in the spring of 2016, those changes were made to fine tune the barrier. The Albert Lea Lake Management and Invasive Species Control Structure is now fully complete. The outlet, fish passage, and fish barrier worked in harmonization as part of the District’s overall management plan. Similar to the Wedge Creek, White Lake, and Mud Lake efforts, the anticipated outcome for Albert Lea Lake is restoration of rooted aquatic vegetation, fish and wildlife habitat, and enhanced water quality—all of which will serve to increase community use of this important recreational resource.   The existing Albert Lea Lake outlet structure and access bridge, installed in 1922, are in need of repair.The proposed project would replace the fixed-crest dam with a rock-arch rapids feature to control water levels and allow fish passage (see concept drawing). A lake level management structure would also be constructed, as well as an electric barrier to prevent silver, bighead, and common carp and other benthic feeding fish from entering the lake. This project is expected to result in improved aquatic habitat, improved waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, an increase in desirable fish populations, and improved water quality and clarity. It has been identified as a high priority in the SRRWD Management Plan, developed with public participation, and subject to public review and approval by the SRRWD Board. Specific benefits are outlined below. 1.  Rock-Arch Water-Level Control and Fish Passage: Replacing the existing fixed-crest dam with a series of rock arches will provide a naturalized outlet to Albert Lea Lake, with the upper-most rock arch controlling the normal water level. The arches will also provide fish passage, allowing northern pike to move upstream from the Shell Rock River to spawn in the lake. Northern Pike typically spawn in March and April, while carp spawning/movement typically does not start until May. A fish passage—in combination with an electric fish barrier activated in May to preclude carp—will increase the population of Northern Pike, natural predators of carp. Albert Lea Lake populations of Northern Pike and Bluegill (also a carp egg predator) are currently below Minnesota DNR norms for similar lakes. 2.  Lake Level Management Structure: Installation of a structure to facilitate lake-level management gives the SRRWD flexibility to take action benefiting the health of the lake. Periodic lowering of lake elevations allows maximum in-lake sediment compaction, improvement of water clarity due to reduction in wind-generated turbidity, and time for plant colonization of shoreline and shallow-water areas. The resulting improvement in aquatic plant health benefits the entire lake system. 3.  Electric fish barrier: An electric fish barrier will be used to reduce the population of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in Albert Lea Lake and to prevent the introduction of Bighead and Silver (Asian) Carp. Common carp uproot and consume aquatic vegetation, disturb and re-suspend phosphorous-rich sediments. The resulting increase in turbidity reduces light penetration—discouraging rooted plant growth—and contributes to algal blooms responsible for oxygen depletion. The destruction of aquatic vegetation by large populations of foraging fish also impacts waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, shoreline and littoral habitat, and game fish spawning habitat. Asian Carp multiply rapidly and are voracious eaters, depleting food resources. The leaping ability of the Silver Carp also poses a danger to boaters and skiers. According to a 2010 news story in the Cedar Rapids Gazette, Asian carp have migrated past the 5-in-1 Dam in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, moving up the Cedar River to Black Hawk County—where the Cedar and the Shell Rock River join. The distance from this point to Albert Lea Lake is only about 100 miles. While there is not general agreement about the threat posed by Asian carp in lake waters, if this does become a concern the barrier could be used year-round and an alternative fish management plan developed. The SRRWD has a proven track record of success with fish barriers. The fish barriers upstream of Albert Lea Lake—at Wedge Creek and White Lake (partially funded by 2009 Outdoor Heritage Funds) and Mud Lake—have improved habitat and water clarity in the upstream areas. Improved habitat is demonstrated by increased sightings of aquatic fur bearers and waterfowl, with 15 waterfowl species sighted during the fall migration. Improvements in water clarity are demonstrated by secchi disk readings on Fountain Lake (connected to these water bodies), which were the best on record in 2010. The proposed outlet, fish passage, and fish barrier will work as part of the District’s overall management plan. Similar to the Wedge Creek, White Lake, and Mud Lake efforts, the anticipated outcome for Albert Lea Lake is restoration of rooted aquatic vegetation, fish and wildlife habitat, and enhanced water quality—all of which will serve to increase community use of this important recreational resource. The strategy of carp/rough fish control and exclusion is known to be effective. This program is endorsed by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Fishery and Wildlife Divisions and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and conducted with their technical assistance and cooperation. This project is consistent with recommendations of the 2004 Shell Rock River Watershed Management Plan (Appendix B & J). It is also noted in the Albert Lea Lake Management Plan, as part of the Freeborn County Comprehensive Water Plan 2006-2015. Other applicable plans include the Minnesota Conservation and Preservation Plan Phase II provisions that address the control of invasive species, restoration of shallow lakes, water quality improvements in impaired waters, and  protection and enhancement of fish and waterfowl breeding habitat (pg. 30-96); and the 2009 Minnesota State Management Plan for Invasive Species. Activities are also within the goals of the Basin Alliance for the Lower Mississippi in Minnesota (BALMM). This project is a component of the 2011 Restoring Native Habitat/Water Quality to the Shell Rock River Project funded by the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Fund for the fee-title acquisition of the headwaters of the Shell Rock River. The land has been acquired and will be turned over to the DNR to be operated under an Aquatic Management Area Management Plan. There are no known opponents or anticipated barriers to project completion. These efforts will be highly visible and seen as a benefit to the entire region. They are endorsed by the local Chamber of Commerce, Convention and Visitors Bureau, Freeborn County, City of Albert Lea, DNR and Fountain Lake Sportsmen’s Club.  ",,2013-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Andy,Henschel,"Shell Rock River Watershed District","411 S Broadway ","Albert Lea",MN,56007,"(507) 377-5785",andy.henschel@co.freeborn.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Freeborn,"Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/albert-lea-lake-management-and-invasive-species-control-structure,,,,

The benefits from this project include improved aquatic and waterfowl habitat, invasive species management, and improved desirable fish populations.","The Shell Rock River Watershed District (SRRWD) encompasses 246-square miles in Freeborn County. The District includes 11 lakes that drain to the Shell Rock River, which flows into the Cedar River. Among the District’s lakes are Fountain Lake and Albert Lea Lake, located within the City of Albert Lea. These lakes are central to Albert Lea’s tourism industry and its identity.The previous Albert Lea Lake outlet structure and access bridge, installed in 1922, was in need of repair. The Albert Lea Lake Management and Invasive Species Control Project replaced the fixed-crest dam with a rock-arch rapids feature to control water levels. A lake level management structure was also constructed, as well as an electric fish barrier to prevent silver, bighead, and common carp and other benthic feeding fish from entering the lake.The project is expected to result in improved aquatic habitat, improved waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, an increase in desirable fish populations, and improved water quality and clarity for years to come. Specific benefits are outlined below.1. Rock-Arch Water-Level Control: The SRRWD replaced the old fixed-crest dam with a series of rock arches to provide a naturalized outlet to Albert Lea Lake. The upper-most rock arch is controlling the normal water level with the help of metal sheeting. There are two more rock arches behind the first, totaling 3 rock arches. 2.  Lake Level Management Structure: The installation of the structure to facilitate lake-level management gives the SRRWD flexibility to take action benefiting the health of the lake. Periodic lowering of lake elevations allows maximum in-lake sediment compaction, improvement of water clarity due to reduction in wind-generated turbidity, and time for plant colonization of shoreline and shallow-water areas. The resulting improvement in aquatic plant health benefits the entire lake system.3.  Electric fish barrier:  An electric fish barrier was installed and is used to reduce the population of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in Albert Lea Lake and to prevent the introduction of Bighead and Silver (Asian) Carp. Common carp uproot and consume aquatic vegetation, disturb and re-suspend phosphorous-rich sediments. The resulting increase in turbidity reduces light penetration—discouraging rooted plant growth—and contributes to algal blooms responsible for oxygen depletion. The destruction of aquatic vegetation by large populations of foraging fish also impacts waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, shoreline and littoral habitat, and game fish spawning habitat.Design and engineering of the project started in late 2013. Contracts and associated agreements for the dam were made in early 2014. The order of operations for the construction of the project includes:•    Installation of the cofferdam•    Construction of the water diversion channel•    Removal of the old dam and bridge•    Installation of the metal sheeting that holds the lake level•    Placement of the first rock arch along the sheeting•    Installation of the footings for the concrete work•    Concrete work for the fish barrier•    Concrete work for the draw down structure•    Finalize/seal all concrete•    Placement of remaining rock arches•    Removal of the cofferdam and water diversion channel•    Installation and fine tuning of the fish barrier componentThe main construction of the projects where completed in the spring of 2015. At the end of 2015, some calibrations of the electric components were needed on the electric fish barrier. After the ice melt in the spring of 2016, those changes were made to fine tune the barrier. The Albert Lea Lake Management and Invasive Species Control Structure is now fully complete. The outlet, fish passage, and fish barrier worked in harmonization as part of the District’s overall management plan. Similar to the Wedge Creek, White Lake, and Mud Lake efforts, the anticipated outcome for Albert Lea Lake is restoration of rooted aquatic vegetation, fish and wildlife habitat, and enhanced water quality—all of which will serve to increase community use of this important recreational resource.   The existing Albert Lea Lake outlet structure and access bridge, installed in 1922, are in need of repair.The proposed project would replace the fixed-crest dam with a rock-arch rapids feature to control water levels and allow fish passage (see concept drawing). A lake level management structure would also be constructed, as well as an electric barrier to prevent silver, bighead, and common carp and other benthic feeding fish from entering the lake. This project is expected to result in improved aquatic habitat, improved waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, an increase in desirable fish populations, and improved water quality and clarity. It has been identified as a high priority in the SRRWD Management Plan, developed with public participation, and subject to public review and approval by the SRRWD Board. Specific benefits are outlined below. 1.  Rock-Arch Water-Level Control and Fish Passage: Replacing the existing fixed-crest dam with a series of rock arches will provide a naturalized outlet to Albert Lea Lake, with the upper-most rock arch controlling the normal water level. The arches will also provide fish passage, allowing northern pike to move upstream from the Shell Rock River to spawn in the lake. Northern Pike typically spawn in March and April, while carp spawning/movement typically does not start until May. A fish passage—in combination with an electric fish barrier activated in May to preclude carp—will increase the population of Northern Pike, natural predators of carp. Albert Lea Lake populations of Northern Pike and Bluegill (also a carp egg predator) are currently below Minnesota DNR norms for similar lakes. 2.  Lake Level Management Structure: Installation of a structure to facilitate lake-level management gives the SRRWD flexibility to take action benefiting the health of the lake. Periodic lowering of lake elevations allows maximum in-lake sediment compaction, improvement of water clarity due to reduction in wind-generated turbidity, and time for plant colonization of shoreline and shallow-water areas. The resulting improvement in aquatic plant health benefits the entire lake system. 3.  Electric fish barrier: An electric fish barrier will be used to reduce the population of common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in Albert Lea Lake and to prevent the introduction of Bighead and Silver (Asian) Carp. Common carp uproot and consume aquatic vegetation, disturb and re-suspend phosphorous-rich sediments. The resulting increase in turbidity reduces light penetration—discouraging rooted plant growth—and contributes to algal blooms responsible for oxygen depletion. The destruction of aquatic vegetation by large populations of foraging fish also impacts waterfowl nesting, breeding, and feeding habitat, shoreline and littoral habitat, and game fish spawning habitat. Asian Carp multiply rapidly and are voracious eaters, depleting food resources. The leaping ability of the Silver Carp also poses a danger to boaters and skiers. According to a 2010 news story in the Cedar Rapids Gazette, Asian carp have migrated past the 5-in-1 Dam in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, moving up the Cedar River to Black Hawk County—where the Cedar and the Shell Rock River join. The distance from this point to Albert Lea Lake is only about 100 miles. While there is not general agreement about the threat posed by Asian carp in lake waters, if this does become a concern the barrier could be used year-round and an alternative fish management plan developed. The SRRWD has a proven track record of success with fish barriers. The fish barriers upstream of Albert Lea Lake—at Wedge Creek and White Lake (partially funded by 2009 Outdoor Heritage Funds) and Mud Lake—have improved habitat and water clarity in the upstream areas. Improved habitat is demonstrated by increased sightings of aquatic fur bearers and waterfowl, with 15 waterfowl species sighted during the fall migration. Improvements in water clarity are demonstrated by secchi disk readings on Fountain Lake (connected to these water bodies), which were the best on record in 2010. The proposed outlet, fish passage, and fish barrier will work as part of the District’s overall management plan. Similar to the Wedge Creek, White Lake, and Mud Lake efforts, the anticipated outcome for Albert Lea Lake is restoration of rooted aquatic vegetation, fish and wildlife habitat, and enhanced water quality—all of which will serve to increase community use of this important recreational resource. The strategy of carp/rough fish control and exclusion is known to be effective. This program is endorsed by the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Fishery and Wildlife Divisions and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and conducted with their technical assistance and cooperation. This project is consistent with recommendations of the 2004 Shell Rock River Watershed Management Plan (Appendix B & J). It is also noted in the Albert Lea Lake Management Plan, as part of the Freeborn County Comprehensive Water Plan 2006-2015. Other applicable plans include the Minnesota Conservation and Preservation Plan Phase II provisions that address the control of invasive species, restoration of shallow lakes, water quality improvements in impaired waters, and  protection and enhancement of fish and waterfowl breeding habitat (pg. 30-96); and the 2009 Minnesota State Management Plan for Invasive Species. Activities are also within the goals of the Basin Alliance for the Lower Mississippi in Minnesota (BALMM). This project is a component of the 2011 Restoring Native Habitat/Water Quality to the Shell Rock River Project funded by the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Fund for the fee-title acquisition of the headwaters of the Shell Rock River. The land has been acquired and will be turned over to the DNR to be operated under an Aquatic Management Area Management Plan. There are no known opponents or anticipated barriers to project completion. These efforts will be highly visible and seen as a benefit to the entire region. They are endorsed by the local Chamber of Commerce, Convention and Visitors Bureau, Freeborn County, City of Albert Lea, DNR and Fountain Lake Sportsmen’s Club.  ",,2013-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Andy,Henschel,"Shell Rock River Watershed District","411 S Broadway ","Albert Lea",MN,56007,"(507) 377-5785",andy.henschel@co.freeborn.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Freeborn,"Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/albert-lea-lake-management-and-invasive-species-control-structure,,,,

Native habitats have become rare and continue to be lost. Oak savanna and prairie - the characteristic habitat of the Anoka Sandplain - now persist over <1% of their historic range. Due to its proximity to the Twin Cities, the ASP is realizing immense development pressure on what native habitat remains. 2. Degradation of habitats on public lands and waters threatens associated wildlife populations. Reduction in habitat quality has had profound impacts on wildlife in the ASP. Minnesota’s CWCP identifies maintenance, enhancement and protection of oak savannas as its first priority in addressing the 97 Species of Greatest Conservation Need (SGCN) occurring in this ecological subsection. 3. Government agencies often lack sufficient resources/capacity to manage important lands. Inadequate funding/capacity for restoration activities on public lands has resulted in declines in the condition of Minnesota’s most important wildlife habitats. Scope of Work The following outcomes were realized: 1. Expansion of ongoing restoration/enhancement to 16 new project areas; 2.

We compiled 61 annual continuous water level records across 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.

The Board will hold a meeting within the month following the concert to focus on the finances of the event, performance satisfaction, the collaboration with area artists, and the feedback from an audience survey and a singer survey. All information gathered will be used to assist in future planning, collaborations with other area organizations and individuals, and continued relationships with area instrumentalists and soloists.","Goals: 1. Offering beautiful new choral repertoire to the audience and performers The choir of 28 singers offered an hour and a half of beautiful music focused on the concepts of the northern lights, light and dark, of love made visible in the universe, and of stars as symbols of hope and joy. The selections were enjoyed by both singers and audience members. 2. Creating an opportunity for local visual artists to collaborate in an exhibit/performance. A competition was held and three local photographers were chosen to exhibit at the concert. Their work was projected onto a large screen behind the choir as it sang, giving a visual emphasis to the music. This enriched the artistic experience for the audience. 3. Presenting 2 events that would enhance the understanding of the northern lights, both for audience and performers/artists. 2 concerts were held at Sacred Heart Music Center, with soloist, instrumentalists, and choir. Prior to Saturday's concert, local astronomy expert ""Astro Bob"" (Bob King) addressed the science behind the northern lights, which added an additional layer of enjoyment and understanding for the audience. 4. Including audience members from the visual arts community to this joint venture/performance.

A participant survey will be distributed to all cast and crew to solicit response on their experience in the production and if they felt their skill level had an opportunity to expand and grow. Success in this area will also be measured by the number of members that return for the fall 2018 play.

We wish to coordinate a fanciful procession including hundreds of local citizens, to accompany our giant Smelt Queen puppet on the Lakewalk. This will be a visual and musical spectacle, celebrating the extraordinary phenomenon of the smelt run. We will offer free workshops prior to the event, both in a visible public location and in area schools. We wish for the workshops and parade to be creative parties, both lighthearted and humorous. The key to our success will be to engage students, families, and a diverse community of volunteer participants. We intend to recruit perhaps 100 costumed and masked performers and puppeteers. Additionally, we expect to attract another couple of hundred spectators. Our parade is intrinsically a community event. People will come if they enjoy themselves. We make it easy for people to participate at their own level. We have worked with girl scouts making crowns and rod puppets, dads on stilts, and grandmas sewing costumes. We will continue to recruit citizens of all ages.","This was our 7th annual Smelt Run Parade. We presented parade workshops at the Aquarium and the West Duluth Library, before getting started at our primary location at the Duluth Art Institute Lincoln Center in Lincoln Park on April 28. We recruited approximately 60 masqueraders and puppeteers at the workshops. Some were repeat participants, and many were newcomers. In addition, anyone and everyone is invited to dress up in silver. Year after year, more and more individuals and families are creating costumes at home. The Duluth News Tribune (front page. May 14. see attachments) included an an interview with a Duluth mom who explained that her family has a bin in the basement for smelt costumes, right next to their Christmas bin! Parade day, May 13, presented lovely weather and approximately 350 people joined our procession on the Lakewalk. There are several partners and sponsors whose support helped make this year's event a success. These include the Park Point Community Club, the Army Corps of Engineers, Duluth Parks and Recreation, Zeitgeist Arts Café, Hoops Brewing, Bent Paddle, Whole Foods Co-op, the Red Herring, Global Village, Endion Station and Third St. Bakery. We are pleased to report that we picked up one new sponsor this year, the Greater Downtown Council. I'd like to also mention that Smelt Parade was cited at the GDC's annual meeting in January as a unique and vibrant cultural event. As intended, our final event was a visual and musical spectacle, celebrating the extraordinary phenomenon of the annual smelt run.

In terms of musicality vs technical prowess, I was very pleased with our performance.” “I thought we had enough [rehearsal] time, but barely.

Our two main outcomes from the event are to: 1. Attract (through marketing efforts, co-sponsorship by community organizations and relationships forged through our work during the past 12 years) community members from a diverse set of cultural communities and socioeconomic backgrounds to be energized and enriched by the performances. 2. Inspire future connections, conversations, and creative partnerships that continue to build toward a just, respectful, and sustainable future for our community. Our most straightforward criteria for the project's success are attendance numbers and a measure of the degree of diversity among our attendees. The next level of complexity will be captured through an electronic survey following the event and using the results to inform our future programming. In this evaluation we will assess how attendees' understanding of cultural values about environmental justice has been impacted. We will also ask respondents to share further actions they may take as a result of the event. We will also be alert to evidence of future collaborations that arise out of of the performances, which will demonstrate success in catalyzing cross-cultural partnerships.","Outcome 1: Attracting (through marketing efforts, co-sponsorship by community organizations and relationships forged through our work during the past 12 years) community members from a diverse set of cultural communities and socioeconomic backgrounds to be energized and enriched by the artistic performances. Results: We drew speakers and audience members from a broad array of organizations, congregations, and socio-economic backgrounds to our event, including members of Veterans for Peace, the St. Scholastica Monastery, the Duluth Branch of the NAACP, Temple Israel, Peace United Church of Christ, and our sponsoring organizations (AICHO, Community Action Duluth, CHUM, Zeitgeist, the City of Duluth, and Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light). While the artists and speakers of the event were a culturally-diverse group of people (Native American, African American, and White), and our audience included members of all groups just mentioned, our attendance was smaller and less diverse than we had hoped, perhaps in part because of our weather-related rescheduling and the fact that we had to relocate from St. Scholastica to Peace United Church of Christ. Outcome 2: Inspiring future connections, conversations, and creative partnerships that continue to build toward a just, respectful, and sustainable future for our community. Results: A truly unique and inspiring set of connections, conversations, and creative partnerships were forged through this work. A small creative team of artists helped formulate the questions posed to our speakers for the event, so that these questions informed both the discussion and the performance in meaningful ways. As a result, artistic performance was interwoven with discussion, and the performances provided profound commentary. Several speakers noted how moved they were by the synergy, and the artists repeatedly expressed their wishes to revisit the collaboration for the purposes of performing together again through this framework.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",5412,"Other,local or private",7980,,"Marianne Allen, Deborah Amberg, Steve Burgess, Bryan Chavez, Daniel Clay, Ed Crawford, Mary Dewitt, Christopher Dolan, Jessica Durbin, Colette Geary, David Herman, Mat Johnson, Gretchen Johnston, Beth Haenke, Melanie Mogg, Vincent Ohaju, Michael O’Keefe,",,"The College of Saint Scholastica","Private College/University","Art Project Grant",,"HARMONY: Environmental Justice, Community, and the Power of Art.",2018-04-02,2018-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Colette,Geary,"The College of Saint Scholastica","1200 Kenwood Ave ",Duluth,MN,55811,"(218) 723-6000 ",aabrahamson@css.edu,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"St. Louis",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-grant-143,"Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor UMD Music, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, and former Children's Theatre employee; Kayla Schubert: Native American craft artist, writer, employee at MacRostie Art Center; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor","Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist, Cultural Programming Coordinator at American Indian Community Housing Organization; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor UMD Music, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, and former Children's Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artists, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Kayla Schubert: Native American craft artist, writer, employee at MacRostie Art Center; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor; Emily Fasbender: student liaison, visual artist",,2

This will raise the quality of our actors' skills, making our pool more versatile. Designers will have an opportunity to set visuals and music into two competing formats; Chicago, jolly, 1920s and Germany, dark, 1930s and to learn what works, making them better designers. Audiences will get a novel and enriching experience, seeing a broadly-acted, funny, gangster show, learning its parallel to the rise of Nazism in Germany, seeing the impact costumes can have on productions, appreciating new acting styles. The Board will continue to embrace edgy play choices artistically and financially. Measuring acting growth is subjective, but the Players will attempt it using criteria of extended physical fluidity and versatility, greater vocal variety and improved timing. We always do an after action discussion with designers and crews to get their evaluations of the production's outcomes. For this show we'll also ask that a questionnaire be returned to the producer. At our regular Q and As, we'll ask pointed raise-your-hands questions about the audience's reaction to the play as parable, the effect of costumes and acting style, and are they likely to attend more edgy plays. Our Board reviews the play's impact artistically and financially. We measure audience size, attendees' zipcodes, profit/loss.","Many of the outcomes are only measurable subjectively, so the director used the opinions of several knowledgeable theatre people in the crews and from the audience, as well as her own; written surveys, and pointed audience responses to questions asked after three of the shows. Later, we all heard more specifics from people on the street in our small town. ACTORS: Wearing the exaggerated period costumes, most expanded their broad, physical acting style. They worked at it before the costumes arrived, but flourished once they were comfortable in them and saw what they looked like in them. DESIGNERS: Two of the ""designers"" (set and music director) had their visions fulfilled fairly well, as a result of knowing what the costumed look of the show would be. Certainly they grew in their art by seeing what worked and what did not as set pieces were built and incidental music and songs were integrated into the show. AUDIENCES: Some told us outright that the broad acting style took a few minutes to get used to, but then they appreciated that the ""clowning"", as one person called it, really fit to make the Fascists look foolish. There was no question about the power of the final moment, when the Ui/Hitler character does the Nazi salute, and the rest of the cast of 17 shouts, ""Heil."" It looked like 1930s Chicago/Germany. The house was silent for five long seconds before the blackout. We said that audiences would continue to appreciate our ""edgy"" plays, and they raised their hands to say they would. BOARD: They too stand and behind and support well-produced ""edgy"" plays for our community theatre group. And most objectively: Our audiences grew in size for each dress rehearsal and performance. After bills were paid, we had $1,200 to add to the match for our next production's grant application. And while we were, unfortunately, unable to get volunteers to capture zip codes, everyone working on the show (especially front of house), said that lots of new people attended.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",6131,"Other,local or private",8283,300,"Marcie Lindgren, Patricia Feld, Karen Ferlaak, Sandra LeBlanc-Boland, Kathy Champoux, John Hanson, Kim Powell, Dan King, Lynn Nachbar, Paul Kraska, Larry Salmela",,"Edge Center for the Arts","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project Grant",,"Costume rental for a production of The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui.

A seasoned actor, Raeanne Conat, will advance her dramatic skills by serving as a first-time director. New cast and crew members will be reached by advertising auditions in programs of our spring performances, social media, and recruiting rock-and-roll musicians, a change from previously used orchestra members. We will utilize box office income to determine if we increased attendance over previous productions. An audience survey and social media responses will gage satisfaction levels, quality of performance, and if we reached the desired age range. A participant survey will be distributed to all cast and crew to solicit response on their experience in the production and if they felt their skill level had an opportunity to expand and grow. Success in this area will also be measured by the number of new members gained, and those that return for our two spring 2019 performances. In addition, the production team, with focus on Ms. Conat and the new musicians, will be interviewed for their feedback.","Box office income measured whether or not attendance increased over previous productions. Income and ticket sales reflected a similar attendance level to the last full-length play (Anne of Green Gables) but a slight decrease from last year’s fall musical. We believe this decrease is due to the selection of production. Several troupe members commented they were not interested in performing in a ‘dark comedy’ and did not care for the storyline. We suspect previous audience members held the same opinion and chose not to attend this performance. A survey inserted in each play program measured the satisfaction levels of attendees. Eleven percent of audience members responded. All but three respondents commented on the high level of quality of the production. Comments from the other three included disappointment in the use of swear words and the level of violence within the script. Social media posts reflected a 100% satisfaction rate of the production. 29% of returned surveys identified themselves in the targeted age-range of 30-50. Five of these respondents attended their first Borealis Bards performance. The theatre troupe is very satisfied with this outcome. A post production cast and crew survey identified the development of several new skills. The lead actress shared the challenge she faced in developing an acceptable Brooklyn accent and maintaining that accent throughout the entire musical. Her goal was to use her own voice while staying true to the character’s stereotype. She felt it was a very large challenge she hadn’t faced performing roles in the past. Other new skills developed by cast and crew included increasing stage confidence, addressing time and stress management, and performing in the aisle. The musicians found the musical score challenging, but rewarding.","Achieved most of the proposed outcomes",6963,"Other,local or private",10549,,"Gail Rognerud, Tim Fairchild, Kay Arnold, Patti Ballan, Julie Bartkowski, Harry Batdorf, Carol Bryant-Bushinger, John Faith, Derek Foss, Sherrie Lessard, Beth Lowthian, Tracy Lunser, Diane Maxey",,"Citizens for Backus / Alexander Baker, Inc.

We seek funding to support new construction of the set, for costumes, and props. Sets must be constructed to travel to three locations: Aurora, Chisholm and Ely, each venue with a different size stage. Ours is a visual society, and in a community which sees little live opera or theatre, we believe that the production values need to be high to provide a high quality arts experience for the public. Sets will be designed by Bart Healy, and built by Aurora carpenters, Alvin Rintala and Arthur Cherro. Costumes will be rented. Building a new production requires good design, appropriate for the Stage Director's vision, and it needs to be built in a timely way, on schedule and on budget. Our design and building team has worked together for many years, and it is rare when there are cost overruns for this aspect of the festival. We try to maximize the production values, and still find a way to come in on budget. If the set and the costumes are beautiful, if the audience responds well to the production; if the set looks good in three different halls, and can be managed well by the crew in these various venues; and if it comes in on budget, we will feel we have been successful.","The opera was well-staged and well rehearsed. The cast was extremely strong and both the stage Director and the Music Director pulled together a fast and very funny show in three weeks. Ticket sales exceeded expectations by 30%. The set was constructed by Aurora carpenters, Arthur Cherro and Alvin Rintala, using the bus garage at Mesabi East as their workshop. The set came in at budget. The set was designed by Bart Healy to fit into three different theatres: Mesabi East's Veda Zuponcic Auditorium; Chisholm Auditorium, and Ely's Washington Auditorium. The set was built on time and was considered to be the best set we have had at Northern Lights Music Festival. It was colorful, fun, and worked well with the costumes we had rented from Malabar. A new costume mistress worked within budget and handled a big job competently, especially for her first attempt at this position.

Although there is a local art club, no visual arts programming currently exists to engage community members or local artists in public art in this community. 3) Instilling the arts into the community and public life in our region: The project implementation will create an art based community asset that will be appreciated regularly when people drive by or attend an event at the '52 Wing. 4) Supporting high-quality, age-appropriate arts education for residents of all ages to develop knowledge, skills, and understanding of the arts: This project will engage artists in the development and application of their own skills as part of a public art project. We intend to survey a variety of groups to determine the perceptions about the improvement and to gain suggestions for other community locations that could support public art. Surveys will be conducted with the City Council, Martinson Foundation, Appleton Community Foundation, and other local donors for this project. They will be asked if they believe their contribution resulted in a positive community improvement and if they would be receptive to funding future projects. They will also be asked for suggestions for other public art projects. A community survey will be made available on the city website and handed out to members attending the grand opening event asking for an evaluation of the beatification efforts and its value to residents.","We supported artists directly by engaging 12 different artists in a collaborative visual public art project that will be easily accessible to all people. The project allowed for artists to work together on a final project and many had never collaborated with any other artists before. It also created an opportunity to stretch their artistic skills in a way they hadn’t before. Some artists were graphic designers, others used different mediums but in the end they all had creative license to create a reproduction of an image using the same set of tools and parameters and the results were incredibly unique. Several artists reported that this project inspired them to work on other art projects or brush up on new skills. As part of the grant we surveyed the artists and the public. 94% of the public said it was fantastic and 88% said it added great value to Appleton.

One artist took seriously ill and was not able to participate at all. A second artist attended 2 design planning meetings, but did not participate further.

Goal #2: Five (goal=10) community adults participated in the mural painting and one took pictures (out of 50 engaged, remainder were bystanders). If the mural painting had taken the full 10 days, the goal may have been achieved. Goal #3: Twenty-seven (goal=20) community youth participated in the mural project (out of 30 engaged, remainder were bystanders). There were no Hispanic youth (goal 15% [3]) that participated. If the painting had lasted 2 weeks, it would have allowed for more effort to be put into having neighboring Hispanic family youth participate in the painting.

In regards to the musical talent aspect of the Market, the Market Committee works to ensure that residents not only become aware of the local talent that exists in Southwest Minnesota, but that they also grow in their appreciation of our local talent. The Committee would also like to work with musicians of different musical styles and backgrounds to generate interest in these different musical genres to attendees of Central Park Market. The Committee also wants to be able to support our local musical talent by showcasing them at the Market and reimbursing them for their participation. A measurable goal for the Market Committee this year will be to bring different musicians into the mix and promote their talent to area residents. We expect that this season, Market attendees will learn about musical talent that they were not aware existed in our area and grow to appreciate the different types of musical talent performed at the Market. The Central Park Market Committee will distribute a survey to participants towards the end of the Market season. The Committee will also post-a link on the survey and on the Central Park Market Facebook page that will allow participants to complete the survey and provide additional feedback on the musical talent at this seasons Market. The Market Committee will work to document if the Market attendees were familiar with the type of music that they experienced during the market season via the completion of an online or paper survey. In the survey, the participant will be asked if they are familiar with the musical talent that performed, what were their impressions of this talent, and if they would like this talent to perform again next year. After the Market season comes to a close, the Committee will evaluate the survey results and work to incorporate suggestions that fit with Central Park Market's mission.","From the survey responses that were revived, it was determined that most Market patrons are repeat attendees and come from less than 5 miles away.

We would expect to attract community members who have limited access to the arts due to their life situation, socio-economic standing, lack of transportation, weekday schedules, etc. We feel that the combination of performance arts, access to healthy and affordable produce and value added nutrition education will create a destination that the public will seek out on Saturday mornings. We also have the ability to assist with overcoming the barriers to accessing high-quality arts activities. Performances in the Market and the market itself are a wonderful destination located centrally in the community, free to all, accommodating to all cultures and a fun venue in general. Performances are accessible to those who would be unable to attend most other local performances. Our evaluation focuses on the collection of information and feedback from attendees and will take a two pronged approach. First, weekly interviews / surveys completed on site during performances by the market manager and our EBT volunteers. This information will be collected weekly which will allow for real time feedback on each artist. Contact information of market consumers is collected throughout the market season and an online survey will be conducted in October. Vendors are also surveyed at the end of the market season. In addition, attendance estimates will be recorded each week. Use of SNAP benefits will be correlated with attendance to provide knowledge regarding participation by the under-served.","We felt that instilling the arts in to the community and public life in our region was the main goal best aligned to our project. We feel we met this goal in several ways. Estimated (duplicated) attendance for 2018 was 62,000 which was almost double the attendance in 2017. This attendance demonstrates that Performances in the Market are reaching a broad array of citizens at a free public event. 67% of consumers surveyed indicated that the performances enhanced their experience and appreciation of the arts. Over 92% indicated that performances at the Market had a positive influence on their enjoyment and attendance. Here are a couple of quotes: Good family time with great entertainment and good foods!

Also, parking volunteers will work together to get a real audience count including counting adults and kids (under 18) separately. 2 and 3) Measuring visitor experience including awareness of pottery types and techniques: Our Survey Administrator is responsible for going around the festival to capture feedback. We created a quick worksheet to capture the responses and then every few hours the volunteer adds all the answers into the electronic survey for easy tabulation and analysis. 4) Measuring impact on exhibiting potters: Over the last three years, we gathered real sales and experience results from all participating artists. We will be able to use this data as a reference point to ensure that participating potters have increased sales year-over-year. 5) Diversify and Build Funding: In 2017, we held our first ever Preview Party to engage individual supporters, artists, sponsors, and funders in a dedicated fundraiser to further diversify and strengthen our funding sources. We plan to hold another one in 2018. We'll also strive to identify new institutional and corporate funding sources.","Measuring attendance: We handed out more than 2,100 stickers. Our 2018 audience engagement survey showed that 36% come from the Hutchinson and surrounding area (including Litchfield and Dassel), 24% came from the Twin Cities Metro Area, 7% came from Western Suburbs of the Twin Cities, 27% came from other areas of Minnesota and the remaining 6% came from out of state. Measuring visitor experience: According to our evaluation tool, the number one reason (36%) that people came to the festival was because they were invited by a friend. And the quality of the art came in second at 34%. When asked what they enjoyed most about the festival 68% says the pottery and meeting the artists, 7% said location, 17% said that they liked the interactive opportunities like the kid’s tent, the Olympics, and the demonstrations. And another 7% couldn't choose and like ""everything."" When it came to improvements, 56% said they had nothing they would change, the other suggestions were to provide more food options (16%) and more shade (8%). Other ideas shared included adding more interactive opportunities, paving the road, adding more potters, and having some sort of music. This was our third year collecting demographics. Key numbers of those surveyed were: 65% female compared to 70% female in 2017, 97% of were older than 18, and 96% of those surveyed were Caucasian. One note, we've noticed that our survey administrator plays a key role in who they interview. In 2018 we had intended to have two survey administrators on both days, unfortunately, due to illness we only had one survey administrator on Sunday, the shorter day. We still believe that the age and background of the administrator plays a role in demographics. In 2019, we intend to make some changes to the survey tool to encourage a larger variety of people to participate. Measuring impact on exhibiting potters: We were also able to survey the artists and find out their average sales, their personal impressions, and we were able to determine if they’d return. Of the potters in attendance in 2018, 94% say they plan to reapply in 2019 and if selected would attend (primary reasons for not returning include scheduling conflicts and distance from home), this was an increase from 91% in 2018. 87% of the artists also reported that the event met or exceeded their expectations. This year's average sales were $1,704 for a total of $53,000 in direct artist revenue, a 7% increase over 2017. The potters’ feedback is that this is one of their favorite events of the year because most traditional art shows don’t draw pottery focused audiences and tend to not foster opportunities for the potters to collaborate and share techniques. One of the feedback themes was how many new attendees there were and how they thought that the advertising was getting better each year.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",7729,"Other,local or private",12729,,"Betsy Price, Mandy Baldry, Morgan Baum, Kerry Brooks, Ernest Miller, Nate Saunders",,"Minnesota Pottery Festival","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project",,"2018 Minnesota Pottery Festival.",2018-05-15,2018-10-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Betsy,Price,"Minnesota Pottery Festival","17614 240th St",Hutchinson,MN,55350,"(320) 587-2599 ",info@mnpotteryfestival.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"McLeod, Meeker, Sibley, Renville, Kandiyohi, Wright, Carver, Hennepin, Scott, Nicollet",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-182,"Cheri Buzzeo: theatre, arts admin; Mary Gillespie: visual art, chamber; Dusan Milanovic, theatre; Kaia Nowatzki: visual art; Tom Wirt: visual art, arts/community boards; Brett Lehman: music, SMAC Board; Janet Olney: visual art, arts admin, SMAC Board.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Marilee Strom: musician, former art teacher, business owner; Kathy Fransen: musician, theatre, Rhythm of the River coordinator; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Pam Blake: retired art educator, visual artist, Tyler Arts Council, Lincoln County Art Fair, Southwest Minnesota Weaver's Guild; Michele Knife Sterner: theatre actor, SMSU 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; Cindy Reverts: visual artist, Rock County Fine Arts Association treasurer, Council for Arts in Humanities in Rock County; Brett Lehman: Worthington International Festival, 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.

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 NLMF has become a yearly tradition where people can come, 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 had some 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. 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 NLMF e-mail. The comments are very useful as they help give us a sense of what genres of music are interesting and valued by our audience and what new areas we might explore. We measure our success in terms of total attendance, attendance increases within the 25-50 age group, and increases in survey approval ratings from year to year, as well as specific comments made by our attendees.","Our attendance goal for the 2018 Festival was 400 attendees. We estimate that we had about 300 attendees which fell short of our goal. Each year we distribute a survey form to all attendees as they enter the grounds. We generally have a 25 - 30% response rate (the number of returned surveys as a ratio of total attendance). We once again had attendees (as reflected in the returned surveys) from 14 Minnesota counties. The percentage of attendees under 60 years of age increased 5% over 2017. One of our goals was to increase attendance among our ""younger"" audience. 30% of surveyed attendees were attending their first or second Festival. Another of our goals is to keep the price of a ticket affordable for our West Central Minnesota audience. We held ticket prices this year ($15.00 - $25.00 depending on when purchased plus a senior discount of $5.00 on the day of the Festival). 77% of those surveyed said that the ticket cost was ""just right"" and an additional 18% said that prices were ""a bargain"". Between 95% to 97% of those surveyed rated the musical groups, the musical variety, the location, and the food choices as either ""good"" or ""excellent"". 100% of those surveyed said that they planned to attend next year's festival.","Achieved most of the proposed outcomes",9490,"Other,local or private",14490,,"Steve Slominski, Mark Crellin, Rosemary Bentson, Abigail Duly, Bill Gossman, Bethany Lactorin, Kyle Jarius",,"New London Music Festival","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project",,"2018 Music Festival.",2018-02-15,2018-12-31,"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, Olmsted, Ramsey, Scott, Stearns, Stevens, Wright",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-183,"Joyce Aakre: visual art, writing; Mark Brodin: music, theatre, film; Maureen Keimig: theatre; Kristine Leuze: visual art; Joyce Meyer: visual art, education; Kathy Schaefer: music, visual art; John Voit: music, theatre.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Marilee Strom: musician, former art teacher, business owner; Kathy Fransen: musician, theatre, Rhythm of the River coordinator; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Pam Blake: retired art educator, visual artist, Tyler Arts Council, Lincoln County Art Fair, Southwest Minnesota Weaver's Guild; Michele Knife Sterner: theatre actor, SMSU Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Tom Wirt: artist, owner Clay Coyote Gallery, Hutchinson Center for the Arts, past member Hutchinson Public Arts Commission; 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; Cindy Reverts: visual artist, Rock County Fine Arts Association treasurer, Council for Arts in Humanities in Rock County; Brett Lehman: Worthington International Festival, 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

I also want to create at least one unofficial group with my friends. We can practice during free time and try to get faculty to coach us. As an individual artist, I am hoping to improve my chamber group ability. I want to come out of this camp with valuable knowledge and experience that I will be able to use for the rest of my life as a musician. To measure my success in my chamber group, I will listen to the recording of my chamber group and compare it to last year. If I can see noticeable improvement, I will know I have benefited from the camp. I will evaluate the success of the unofficial group I hope to create by whether the faculty allow the group to perform for the final concert. If they let us perform, I will know the group was a success.","I was satisfied with my learning progress, and felt that all three concerts were successes. I had audience members give me compliments to the group after a couple of the concerts. The masterclass was probably what I benefited from most. Mrs. Jarka helped me learn to relax certain muscles in the back, neck, and wrist, which has made practicing since them much more comfortable. The week after camp I practiced five hours a day to prepare for the All State Orchestra camp, and without the masterclass, I would probably not have had the physical endurance to practice for that amount of time. Also, releasing some of the tension in my wrist has allowed me to have a more precise bow stroke, and get clearer sound, especially on fast notes. I also learned a lot from the chamber group coachings. The group I was with was at a higher level than any I had played with before, and the coach was really able to zero in on some things I could do better as a chamber musician.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",100,"Other,local or private",600,,,,"Name of minor withheld due to MN Statutes 2018, section 3.303.10",Individual,"Art Study Opportunity for Youth",,"Southwest Minnesota String Festival.",2018-05-15,2018-07-28,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,,,"Name of minor withheld due to MN Statutes 2018, section 3.303.10",,,MN,,,,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,Lyon,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-study-opportunity-youth-8,"Michele Sterner: theatre, SMAC Board; Bobbie Alsgaard-Lien: visual art, education; Reggie Gorter: music, theatre; John Larson: visual art; Dana Miller: writing, visual art, education; Joyce Meyer: visual art, education, SMAC Board; Karen Pfeiffer, music.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Marilee Strom: musician, former art teacher, business owner; Kathy Fransen: musician, theatre, Rhythm of the River coordinator; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Pam Blake: retired art educator, visual artist, Tyler Arts Council, Lincoln County Art Fair, Southwest Minnesota Weaver's Guild; Michele Knife Sterner: theatre actor, SMSU 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; Cindy Reverts: visual artist, Rock County Fine Arts Association treasurer, Council for Arts in Humanities in Rock County; Brett Lehman: Worthington International Festival, 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

Longer-range outcomes for this project include a thriving arts scene on the Iron Range, greater interest in the study of music in our schools, growing audiences for orchestra concerts, and growing financial support for the Mesabi Symphony Orchestra.The board will assess whether the artistic goal has been achieved through consultation with the artistic director and conductor immediately following the performances. The Mesabi Symphony Orchestra board tracks orchestra membership and concert attendance on an ongoing basis. The financial results for this project will be collected by the Mesabi Symphony Orchestra board and evaluated at a board meeting. The board of Mesabi Symphony Orchestra will track audience size and financial support over time to determine whether the measurable long-term outcomes are being met.

One indication that the longer-range outcome will be met is that five teenagers have joined the Mesabi Community Orchestra, including one young man first exposed to the Mesabi Community Orchestra through this collaboration. Mesabi Community Orchestra included an audience survey in programs, and 43 surveys were returned. Of these, 19 people were attending their first Mesabi Community Orchestra concert. All respondents reported that they liked both the program and the orchestra's performance. These are a few comments received: *Bravo for bringing a symphony to Ely! * It was wonderful to see the students join the orchestra for a couple of pieces. Great way to encourage the youth to stay involved in music. * Loved Keiko's violin solo. And God Created Great Whales"" was spectacular! * I liked that they included the high school students. * Wonderful soloist. Unique whale piece and soothing first half. * Very unusual music - (the whales) - LOVED Blue Danube. Great Concert. * Easy to listen to.

Fourth, to preserve the history of our county and to open up a dialog about rural life in the 1920s, 30s and 40s and how that has shaped our county to-date and how understanding this history will impact our future.The Museum will use ticket sales and attendance counts to determine the access level of the project, along with a detailed survey that will focus on the impact that the performance had on them and the value and appreciation they had for having the opportunity to attend. The survey will also cover how they heard about the performance and if they are currently affiliated with any of the four art and history organizations involved. Future programming partnerships between the art and history organizations will also be recorded as an achievement of our goals. The Museum also hopes to promote sharing of stories of rural life in McLeod County by offering a blog site on their website and will challenge other organizations to do the same.

Festival attendance is important because we want to expose as many people and families to a high-quality arts experience as possible. It is also an indication of the overall success of our event—quality artists, successful advertising, attention to site details, and quality volunteers should all lead to increased ticket sales and attendance. Goal 2: Audience location range increases. We see a good mix of local and Twin Cities attendees. To grow overall attendance, we need to increase our reach to other areas of Minnesota and beyond to promote RiverSong and pull people to our community. Outside of the project goal, we feel it is important to note that we have an operational goal we will be working on during this time frame as well. Although not tied to this project specifically, this organizing goal will benefit our 2015 festival. Goal 3: RiverSong completes formal organizing process to add steering committee capacity and continue strategic planning, ensuring the festival is set up for future success.Ticket sales and total attendance will be tracked to measure the outcome and compare growth to previous years. Pre-sale and gate sales are recorded. Volunteers, artists and vendors are also tracked using passes. Children will receive wristbands to count them. We will track attendee residence using online ticket sale information and by requesting zip codes for on-site ticket sales. This will help evaluate the success of our marketing in different locations. The steering committee will review results and consider what factors we see as influencing attendance based on residence and survey results. Increased ticket sales will also drive on-site revenue, which helps the festival become more financially stable and less reliant on grants and sponsorships, without passing on the additional expenses to individual ticket buyers. As noted in our organizational goal three, internal structure is important in this stage of RiverSong’s growth. Tangible outcomes will include 501(c)(3) documentation, 3-year strategic plan and a steering committee succession plan. While not tied to this project, these items will benefit our 2015 festival.","1.

Ticket sales will measure our audience size. Qualitatively, artistic success will be based on audience engagement at the pre-concert lecture and the post-concert reception. The post-concert reception is an excellent way to gather informal and reliable feedback, and it allows audience members to interact with the musician.

Community familiarity with Shakespearean theater will be measured by the number of adult audience members to attend the evening performance of the National Players production of Midsummer Night's Dream. 2. High school student attendance at the play, followed by interactive workshops and evaluation surveys will indicate the level of engagement by high school students. 3. The goal to add new schools will be measured by the total number of schools participating in children's theater.","1. Increased student attendance by approximately 200 students from previous year. 2. High school students had a positive experience - both in workshops and performance - with a professional theater company. 3. For this first experiment in presenting Shakespeare, 128 adult audiences experienced professional theater in the Dawson Boyd Arts Association season. As a result of these experiences, Dawson Boyd Arts Association plans to expand its student performance options to provide more age-appropriate choices. As a result of the adult audience feedback, Dawson Boyd Arts Association will address the concerns of hearing the actors in future programming.

We hope that the round-table discussion will bring together neighborhood and food leaders with art advocates to discuss pathways to healthy communities through promoting local food and simply being good neighbors. Meanwhile, the intent of the larger exhibit is to promote discussion in the community at large surrounding sustainable cities and neighborhoods. We believe that this exhibit will provide an opportunity to consider important issues for those who have not already done so. We also believe that the experimental nature of the art and its presentation will provide a new perspective for those who already have. We plan to measure the immediate audience impact of the exhibit by counting attendees at the exhibit's opening reception, as well as visitors to the gallery for the duration of the exhibit, which will be open for viewing until the end of the month. We will also document any press or television attention that the event receives. Meanwhile, we hope to secure attendance at the round-table by various leaders in local sustainability. After the discussion and subsequent reception, we will follow up with them to assess their qualified view of the event's impact.","In addition to providing a sign-in sheet to encourage further involvement by attendees, event organizers encouraged each attendee of the dinner to introduce themselves to the room.

I can now organize, develop my work in Lightroom and build my own frames and my website will be up soon; my two-day Square Space workshop taught me the skills I need to produce and design my own website. 2: 400 Minnesotans engaged with my work during seven community events; most reported gaining new appreciation for the beauty and integrity of Minnesota bogs. I counted the audience at my shows, artist talks and the panel discussion. I provided guest books for the Marshall Area Fine Arts Council and Edge Center for the Arts shows. I gauged audience engagement by the questions asked. The Roseau audience stayed for an hour after the talk.

Specifically, it will accelerate the maturation of young people by providing an in-depth experience performing and studying brass chamber music as well as bringing a high-quality brass performance to Adrian. The goals of this residency are to: 1. Provide youth with the skills and tools to take music outside of the classroom and past the printed page. 2. Instill in young people an abiding love of music that results in lifelong engagement on many levels; playing, attending concerts, supporting the arts and teaching. 3. Increase each student's understanding and skill in music, and provide an opportunity to perform in public next to professional musicians. 4. Provide a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of instrumental technique for brass instruments. 5. Provide a chance for community members to experience live professional brass music. There are several benchmarks that myself and The CSB will monitor to know our project has successfully met the above goals, and to evaluate the success of the residency. They include: 1. Students who are engaged - asking questions, participating in activities, and volunteering to play. This is a strong indicator that kids are interacting with the material and processing the information in ways that will be retained. 2. Improved instrumental playing - band members will be more in tune, play together better, and use proper warm-ups prior to ensemble playing. 3. Concert attendance and crowd interaction with The CSB at their evening performance. The primary form of evaluation is from the students themselves both in the classroom sessions and afterwards. The CSB utilizes a feedback survey for me and other staff and volunteers to measure the overall reaction to the program, best and worst portions, and to solicit ideas for improvement. Additionally, we will ask the audience to do a brief survey at the evening performance for evaluative purposes. The CSB and I will also get verbal feedback from students in the classroom and from audience members at the concert. In addition to the surveys, the CSB also stays in the concert hall after the evening performance and makes a point to invite conversation from audience members. This informal audience feedback is an immediate and important reflection of their effectiveness on stage. In the context of a residency, it is also an opportunity to hear from parents and receive their perspective on the CSB's impact on their child from the residency.","I evaluated this project based on my students’ reactions and take-aways from the day. It was clear to me when Copper Street Brass was working with my students that this was an excellent opportunity for them. Most of my students don't have the opportunity to watch a professional group perform so this was an eye-opening experience for them. It also helped the non-music students in the elementary and middle school to gain a better appreciation of music, both traditional and modern. Talking to my students makes it clear to see that this project made a big impact on them, their learning, and their appreciation for music and music performance.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",,,4000,,"Ed Lenz, Chris Wolf, Robert Kunkel Jr, David Bullerman, Lisa Kruger, Les Madison, Chad Wieneke",,"Adrian Public Schools","K-12 Education","Arts in the Schools",,"Residency with the CSB.",2018-01-31,2018-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Vanessa,VanderWal,"Adrian Public Schools","415 Kentucky Ave",Adrian,MN,56110,"(507) 483-2232 ",v.vanderwal@isd511.net,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,Nobles,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-schools-66,"Mary Kay Frisvold: Music; Tamara Isfeld: Visual Art, Education; Candace Joens: Music, Theatre; Cindy Demers: Visual, Education; Brett Lehman: SMAC Board; Joyce Meyer: SMAC Board; David KelseyBassett: SMAC Board.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Marilee Strom: musician, former art teacher, business owner; Kathy Fransen: musician, theatre, Rhythm of the River coordinator; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Pam Blake: retired art educator, visual artist, Tyler Arts Council, Lincoln County Art Fair, South Dakota Arts Educators Association, Southwest Minnesota Weaver's Guild; Michele Knife Sterner: theatre actor, SMSU Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Tom Wirt: artist, owner Clay Coyote Gallery, Hutchinson Center for the Arts, past member Hutchinson Public Arts Commission; Joyce Aakre: visual arts, writing, Discover Dassel committee, Board member for Litchfield Community Education, Exhibit committee for Dassel Area Historical Society; Kelly Muldoon: graphic artist, Prairie Music Association, Prairie Oasis Players; Dan Wahl: writer, visual artist, director, adjunct English instructor SMSU; Anne O'Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Cindy Reverts: visual artist, Rock County Fine Arts Association treasurer, Council for Arts in Humanities in Rock County; Brett Lehman: Worthington International Festival, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association; Reggie Gorter: vocalist, theatre, voice, dance teacher; Dana Conroy: producer, filmmaker; Claire Swanson: visual arts, arts teacher, Meander Art Crawl Committee.",,2

We will work with the Rock County Fine Arts Association and the artists on the planning committee to finalize the design for the fiberglass nutcracker by working with the fiberglass manufacturing firm. This group will determine the shape, size, style and function of the blank form. We will work with businesses, organizations, individuals and public entities to determine the locations of placement of the nutcrackers. This will include getting written agreements with property owners as to the locations the nutcracker statues will be placed. We will work with the City of Luverne and the fiberglass company to identify and determine the process and materials needed to place permanent statues. We will get final written agreements as to who will be putting the statues in place. We will work on getting annual sponsors to support the creation of the final product. By receiving these annual pledges, we will ensure that the statues will be cared for in the long-term. Through this process we will also determine the schedule for the nutcrackers to be redone (every three to five years) and develop the annual budget for their maintenance and care. We will hold public meetings to gather input from the public on this project.

Outcome Two: The fine art nutcrackers have been on display at the History Center in downtown Luverne since the middle of June. The hosts at the History Center have asked people what they think of the ten art pieces on display. There have been approximately 1,000 guests at the museum over the last two months and they report that they see a variety of things. Some of the people say that they look like nutcrackers. Others say that they look like the prairie, painting, farm or interpretation of design. The mini-nutcrackers have given the committee the opportunity to see that things can be interpreted differently. Outcome Three: We have the 10 small nutcrackers on permanent display. Very occasionally do people ask to have us take them out and more closely look at them. The biggest hindrance to the public embracing them is that they are in a glass case and out of public reach. Outcome Four: At the beginning of the project, we thought we would have a lot of interest from artists to participate. We found out that there was quite a bit of skepticism about the concept of public art nutcrackers. It was harder than we thought to encourage artists to be part of the project.

STC is committed to providing high quality theatre programming that is accessible to all youth and families. Many greater Minnesota schools have self-identified as needing more arts integrated learning opportunities for students and embedded staff development; this project not only helps to meet those needs, but also introduces subject matter and arts learning opportunities not readily available to schools in greater Minnesota. The connection of arts integration in the classroom is simply not a resource within our region. Now that we've seen what can happen in those kinds of classes, we want to work to make sure all of our students get to experience at least once. 2) Supporting high-quality, age-appropriate arts education for residents of all ages to develop knowledge, skills, and understanding of the arts. Students learn how to creatively express their viewpoints and in the showcase each student has an opportunity to convey his or her unique perspective. Role-playing, team-building exercises, and creative expression offer learners tactics they can use in their daily interactions. Using creativity as a driver, teaching artists help develop students' and teachers' capacity to question, challenge, make decisions, and uncover solutions. PoP activities are helping to achieve the stated outcomes for students to learn how to become agents for peace in their communities through creative expression and collaboration and for teachers to learn arts integration strategies they can implement when teaching topics related to social issues and across curricula. A. Collaborative survey design to gather baseline data to measure objectives (previous arts experience, teachers' familiarity with theatre arts instruction) and inform instructional planning (student and teacher ideas of peace-related issues present at their school). B. Pre-project survey to assess student skills, knowledge, engagement, and changes in classroom culture; teacher surveys will document changes in teacher skills, knowledge, and comfort in using arts integration strategies in the classroom. C. Similar post-project survey to identify growth by students and teachers and gather feedback on project implementation D. Written report of survey findings presented to leaders and teaching artists and used to refine plans for subsequent residencies. E. Final report that includes data from all surveys, classroom and performance observations, artist reflections, and analysis of student work. In addition to measuring key objectives, surveys ask teachers for detailed feedback to help improve the program. Evaluator observations of classroom sessions, student journals, public showcases and reflections from artists also will be used to measure effectiveness. All surveys will be administered online.","Of the 65 kids who participated: Prior to the project, only 18 felt comfortable speaking publicly.

We'll track the number of inmates who have arts access for the first time, the number of inmates who attend readings given by peers, the number of peer-mentors that participate, and we'll administer evaluations to learners. 2: Previously underserved Minnesotans and their incarcerated peers will have greater access to art and peer groups within prison. Public will also engage in the work of incarcerated writers. Success is evaluated through discussions, written work and evaluations that assess workshops' impact on the students and students' audience. We'll track postcard responses to students' public readings.","Instructors taught creative writing to incarcerated Minnesotans in nineteen ten-week courses in under serviced state prisons. For each course, we administered beginning and end evaluations to students, and averaged their responses program wide. For audience feedback, we solicited responses to student work. The audience provided over 250 affirming and specific postcards of feedback and praise, which we were then able to share with each writer. Dr. Sharon Preves, a sociologist at Hamline University, redesigned our evaluations for 2015. These new evaluations greatly reduced the chance of error when filling out an evaluation and gave us new and clearer insight into our students’ experiences. 2: We were able to teach approximately 160 incarcerated Minnesotans who've never had a creative writing class in prison. We counted students in each class. We distributed evaluations in each class. In addition, we passed out hundreds of postcards throughout the night of the public reading. Audience members were instructed to raise their hands if they ran out of postcards, which many did, often. They were a generous group and filled their cards with specific, concrete feedback on both the writing and the experience of hearing the writing in a room full of DOC staff, writers, friends and family members of the incarcerated, and former students.

We will accomplish this goal by presenting concerts, artist workshops, a national keynote speaker, networking opportunities and one-on-one mentoring sessions with industry professionals as part of a 3-day free festival. With the addition of a high-profile national keynote speaker, the presentation of the Minnesota Music Supporter Award, we hope to boost attendance from about 600 people last year to more than 800 this year. Last year everyone who responded to our survey, said they thought the workshops were of good or high quality. We hope to have similarly great feedback on this year's programs.The Minnesota Music Summit was conceived and designed as a result of our first Caravan du Nord, in response to evaluation, feedback and successes of that endeavor. As we enter our fourth year of the Minnesota Music Summit, we continue to build on the program based on artist and participant feedback. The Minnesota Music Coalition will continue to evaluate the success of this project both qualitatively and quantitatively. To track attendance, we will do both a head count and an email sign-in at the networking events and workshops. The Amsterdam staff track total number of concert attendees that come through the door. We will provide written surveys to participating artists after the Summit is over, a method that has worked well in the past. We will also measure the quality of the event through comments on our social media as well as through informal conversations and post-event meetings with Minnesota Music Coalition staff, Board and partnering organizations.","As we had hoped, this year's Minnesota Music Summit drew over 800 people who came from all over Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa.

Given that 82% had never done any acting or theater, and 96% had never participated in a video project, we determined that we were pretty successful in achieving this outcome. 2: Arts learners engaged in video production and theater activities, and when necessary teaching artists used adapted techniques to mitigate communicative, sensory, and physical barriers. The interview questions were: what were the barriers the participant faced and do you feel we overcame those barriers? Also, rate the project’s success as either- not successful, somewhat successful, successful, or very successful. Of the fourteen staff, eleven rated the project very successful while three rated it successful. The data showed that based on their knowledge and experience working with them, staff felt that the majority (94%) of the participants’ barriers were mitigated.

Evaluation will occur through an audience and participant questionnaire, personal observation of activities, attendance numbers, and interviews.","95% of the children that are enrolled in Camp Art have never attended an art class taught by an artist outside of this activity. It is too time consuming and expensive for most families to drive kids to the closest art camp which runs for 5 days in Grand Forks. For many campers this is also their only exposure to the art forms that are taught during Camp Art. The camper each filled out a questionnaire rating Camp Art. Each family that attends the Art show fills out a questionnaire asking questions about scheduling, cost, and success of their child's experience at Camp Art. Every year that we have held Camp Art, I re-evaluate if running the camp is worth the amount of time that is spent getting it ready for the kids on the first day and running it. Every year I come back to the same conclusion. There is no way that I can not do this for the kids of the area! It is so much fun to see their questionnaires come back to me full of exclamation points! Both parents and kids will tell me that Camp Art is often the highlight of the summer. Every summer kids are exposed to more art, more ideas, more interesting people with interesting view point and every summer they surprise me when their love of art grows deeper still. How do you measure that? In hugs? In thank yous? In tears from parents when they see their child succeed or become a leader? In artists praise of a community that values its kids and kids who value art? The website designer/ graphic designer/photographer that works for Camp Art recorded the number of visits the site received. There were 812 page views by 118 different individuals.

A number of Minnesota's migratory bird species spend parts of their lives in the areas impacted by the spill and impacts on their populations in the state could become evident over time. Impacts could be from immediate losses of birds that were present at the time of the spill or from cumulative negative effects resulting from contamination of the food chain by petroleum chemicals and the dispersants used on the oil. The two Minnesota species that are potentially most vulnerable are the common loon and the American white pelican; some of their young would have been present in the Gulf at the time of the spill and their behavior and feeding patterns put them at greater risk of exposure to chemicals from the spill persisting in the environment. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is using this appropriation to continue efforts aimed at determining whether or not common loon or American white pelican populations in Minnesota have been impacted by the Gulf oil spill.

",," The History Center of Olmsted County (HCOC) is home to a large collection of analog audiovisual material from KTTC, a television station servicing southeastern Minnesota. The collection includes 534 U-matic tapes as well as 605 16mm film reel. The content of the tapes and films is exclusively news outtakes dating from 1976 to 1991.  While the media in this collection are relatively stable, small parts of the collection had been damaged by water and there was evidence of vinegar syndrome, both of which threaten the continued stability of the media. While they are housed in archival quality containers, they are still exhibiting signs of deterioration, which will only increase with time and result in an irreversible loss of information if reformatting was not completed.  All 534 U-matic tapes and 605 16mm film reels were digitized when physically possible. Five of the items could not be digitized because their condition was too poor, and one was not digitized because it was a duplicate of another reel. The digitizing vendor supplied the HCOC with a master copy and an access copy of each digital file once the material was digitized. These were inspected for quality control and then copied onto a set of master hard drives. Checksums were performed to ensure the copies were not corrupted or damaged. Then the files were copied to a second set of hard drives and checksums were performed for that set.  By taking steps to ensure the long-term viability of the material, we will ensure people have access to it for generations to come. The HCOC itself will likely use the footage in any number of future exhibits it creates. People and organizations outside of the HCOC will also be able to use it for their own research and presentation purposes well into the future, just as people now use photos and other archival material from generations long past.  ",2017-12-01,2018-12-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Krista,Lewis,"Olmsted County Historical Society","1195 West Circle Drive SW",Rochester,MN,55902,507-282-9447,archivist@olmstedhistory.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Historical Society",,Olmsted,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/audiovisual-conversion,,,,

The lake is 851 acres with a maximum depth of 58 feet, and has a watershed drainage area of 7,631 acres. Baker Park Reserve, owned and operated by Three Rivers Park District (TRPD), provides over 4,500 feet of publically accessible shoreline on Lake Independence, which includes two swimming beaches, a public watercraft access, an ADA-accessible fishing pier, numerous picnic areas, and a campground. The lake was listed as impaired for excessive nutrients by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) in 2002. The Lake Independence Total Maximum Daily Load study (TMDL) approved in 2007 identified phosphorus loads from the watershed as the main cause of the impairment. A total phosphorus load reduction of 1,081 lbs./yr. was identified in the TMDL in which 872 lbs./yr. (80%) of load reduction was to come from the watershed. Recent studies identified 2,200 feet of eroding channel within Baker Park Reserve that contributes in an average year 300 tons of sediment and 277 lbs. of phosphorus to Lake Independence. The most cost-effective approach to address the major source of pollutant loading from the ravine is to install a series of rock grade control structures throughout the main and two tributary channels to control the elevation grade as well as armoring the channel with rounded field stone/angular rip-rap to the expected 10-year flood elevation. Average annual phosphorus loads to Lake Independence would be reduced by an estimated 134 lbs. at a cost of $130/lb. of phosphorus load reduction based on a project life of 30 years. This reduction in annual phosphorus load would accomplish 15% of the total watershed phosphorus load reduction called for in the TMDL.",2018-04-19,2023-07-24,"Clean Water Fund",Completed,,,Amy,Juntunen,"Pioneer-Sarah Creek WMC","3235 Fernbrook Ln N Plymouth, MN 55447",Plymouth,MN,55447,763-479-1604,amy@jass.biz,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,Hennepin,,"South Fork Crow River",https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/baker-park-reserve-campground-ravine-stabilization-lake-independence-hennepin-county,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,https://www.bwsr.state.mn.us/board,"Annie Felix-Gerth",no

Furthermore, 2016 monitoring indicates that water now fails to meet the state standard by 2 ug/L for phosphorus and 4 ug/L for chlorophyll-a. The SWCD completed a Subwatershed Assessment (SWA) for the lake in 2016 primarily because the lake water quality was so close to exceeding standards. The assessment uses the standardized Metro Conservation District SWA protocol which targets and prioritizes projects based on cost effectiveness and pollutant removal. The assessment was broken into two components, one raking 12 projects in the direct watershed and the other ranking 97 projects in the rural watershed. This proposal will install six of the top projects identified for the direct watershed. These projects are two bioretention basins and a sump to treat runoff from right-of-ways in Spencer Brook Township, a gully and shoreline repair to treat erosion and runoff from a public access in Stanford Township, a sand filter to capture suspended particulate phosphorus released from a channelized wetland in the southeast (SE) inlet on private campground property, and approximately 10,500 square feet of near-shore stormwater reduction practices to treat runoff and erosion from high priority parcels. In addition to these projects, our staff plans to engage residents, officials and rural landowners in order to promote a sustainable culture of lake stewardship.

",,"The purpose of this initiative was to protect fish, migratory birds, big game, and oak habitat along the Crow Wing, Gull, Nokasippi, and Mississippi Rivers via conservation easements. These river corridors are very vulnerable to habitat degradation due to the potential for development. The Camp Ripley military training center is located immediately adjacent to the confluence of the Crow Wing and Mississippi Rivers. Camp Ripley contains 19 miles of Mississippi River frontage and 8 miles of Crow Wing River frontage that provide habitat for many species including 45 Species of Greatest Conservation Need. This project built upon past Camp Ripley partnership success with the Army Compatible Use Buffer program (ACUB). This federal program provided funds to protect adjacent lands from encroaching development and in the process protects the training center, water quality and wildlife habitat. Fifteen easements were secured totaling 946 acres which was 130% over our gaol of 720 acres. The largest easement was 278 acres with two others that were approximately 100 acres. The average easement size was 63 acres. These parcels are primarily forested with some wetlands. As of this writing the ACUB program has protected over 25,000 acres through conservation easements and fee title including 204 RIM easements totaling over 22,000 acres. In 2014 alone BWSR leveraged $1,000,000 in National Guard Bureau and Department of Army ACUB funds for easement acquisition. As of this writing, during the life of the ACUB program, over $33,000,000 from National Guard Bureau and Department of Army funds have been directed to BWSR for easement acquisition.  Camp Ripley is home to one of the southern-most wolf populations in Minnesota and 65 species of Greatest Conservation Need including the state’s highest population of red shouldered hawks. Red-shouldered Hawks are forest dependent species and the parcels protected in this grant help to ensure that a viable population remains in the Camp Ripley area. Likewise, wolves in Minnesota, are primarily forest species and need rather large areas to maintain pack integrity and reduce competition with neighboring packs and humans. Again, these parcels help to protect this species.       This project utilized Camp Ripley’s partnerships with the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR), MN Department of Natural Resources (DNR),The Nature Conservancy (TNC), Morrison Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) to solicit applications and to score and rank applications. The partnership uses a variety of methods to generate landowner interest and solicit applications including; mailings, open houses, direct contact with landowners and special Camp Ripley events. Applications are sorted into agricultural easements (Non-OHF) and riparian and forested lands easements (OHF). They are then scored and ranked against a GIS based system that ranks parcels based upon a number of factors including habitat quality and proximity to Camp Ripley. Applications are then funded in priority order from appropriate funding sources until all funds are used up. The application process is continuous and there is generally a considerable backlog of interested landowners at any specific point in time. Once a funding decision has been made Morrison SWCD and BWSR work together to accomplish the standard RIM easement acquisition process and the easement becomes part of the RIM portfolio.  ",2014-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Helen,McLennan,"Morrison SWCD","16776 Heron Rd ","Little Falls",MN,56345,"(320) 616-2479",helen.mclennan@mn.nacdnet.net,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Aitkin, Becker, Beltrami, Carlton, Cass, Clearwater, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, Morrison, St. Louis, Wadena","Forest Prairie Transition, Northern Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/camp-ripley-partnership-phase-iv,,,,

",,"The Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Complex Phase IV program acquired 287 acres of high-quality wetland, prairie, remnant Big Woods forest, and shoreline habitat for fish, game and wildlife in the Cannon River Watershed. The protection and creation of four large complexes - Circle Lake WMA, Big Woods Heritage WMA (Erin Township), Sunktokeca Creek WMA (Wells Township), and Trout Lily WMA provide new opportunities for public hunting, fishing, and wildlife observation. The Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Complex Phase IV program was designed to address the following problems: degradation and loss of quality and diversity of habitat in the prairie section of the State, degradation of water quality in the Cannon River Watershed; and lack of available public lands for hunting and angling opportunities, especially within an hour's drive for over half of the state's population. The Phase IV program is a part of a multi-year conservation effort, focusing on the Cannon River Watershed, that includes acquisition, protection, and restoration of core parcels of land that will contribute to a large complex of restored prairies, grasslands, wetlands, lakeshore, and river shoreline. The Phase IV acquisitions were prioritized toward protecting existing large wetland/upland complexes, rare communities (Big Woods forest, oak savanna, tamarack swamp), and shallow lakes. In addition, landowner willingness to sell and the threat of conversion were also taken into consideration. Protection of these lands provides critical habitat for game species, including migratory waterfowl (mallards, canvasback, wood ducks, hooded mergansers, pintails, lesser scaup), upland birds (dove, turkey, pheasant, and woodcock), white tail deer, and fish (northern pike, black crappies, bluegills, bullheads and walleye). Protection will also provide access for a diversity of recreational experiences including duck, pheasant, turkey and deer hunting, lake fishing, and wildlife observation. In addition, restoration work conducted by the MN DNR has been focused on the degraded portions of the lands acquired and has included restoration of agricultural fields near wetlands and lakes back to native habitat. Specifically, four acquisitions were completed with Phase IV funding: 1. Circle Lake WMA - Rice County: The Trust for Public Land acquired the Circle Lake WMA property on June 23, 2016 and conveyed the 166 acre property to the DNR on March 10, 2017 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. Located directly on the north shore of Circle Lake in Rice County, this new WMA consists of high quality emergent marsh habitat as well as upland grass knolls. This site protects habitat for a wide variety of waterfowl and wildlife, specifically including colonial waterbirds and Blanding's turtles. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $711,000 using $371,684 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase IV (ML 2014 OHF; allocated acreage 87), and also $339,316 from the Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III grant (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 79). 2. Big Woods Heritage WMA - Rice County: The Trust for Public Land acquired the Big Woods Heritage property on June 23, 2016 and conveyed the 130 acre property to the DNR on March 10, 2017 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. Located just north of Shields Lake, the headwaters of the Cannon River, this new WMA comprises both rolling upland mixed forest and wetland habitat. The native plant community of Southern Mesic Maple-Basswood Forest is found on this property and it will provide new publicly accessible outdoor experiences including ample hunting opportunities for waterfowl, deer, pheasant and turkeys. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $520,000 using $271,836 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase IV (ML 2014 OHF; allocated acreage 68), and also $248,164 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 62). 3. Sunktokeca Creek WMA - Rice County: The Trust for Public Land acquired the Sunktokeca Creek property on June 23, 2016 and conveyed the 199 acre property to the DNR on March 10, 2017 to be managed as a new Wildlife Management Area. Located just northwest of Faribault, this new WMA protects diverse, high quality emergent marsh habitat, supports a wide variety of waterfowl and wildlife, and provides new publically accessible outdoor experiences within an hour of the Twin Cities including quality hunting opportunities’ for waterfowl, deer, pheasant and turkeys. The Trust for Public Land purchased this property for a total of $1,040,000 using $543,673 in funds from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase IV (ML 2014 OHF; allocated acreage 104), and also $496,327 from Cannon River Headwaters Habitat Phase III (ML 2013 OHF; allocated acreage 95). 4. Trout Lily WMA - Rice County: On August 9, 2017, The Trust for Public Land acquired the 112 acre Phase I property and conveyed both the Phase 1 and Phase 2 properties to the Minnesota DNR on November 6, 2018 to create the new Cannon River Trout Lily WMA in Rice County. This new WMA is located directly on the Cannon River just northeast of Faribault, it currently consists of agricultural cropland and maple-basswood “Big Woods” remnants, and will be restored to prairie while conserving the federally-endangered dwarf trout lily habitat. Directly adjacent to The Nature Conservancy’s Trout Lily preserve and the DNR Trout Lily Scientific and Natural Area (SNA), this acquisition adds protection to this federally-endangered species that is only found on Earth in approximately 600 acres in this area of Minnesota. In addition to protecting the dwarf trout lily and other rare animals such as wood turtles, Blanding’s turtles, and red- shouldered hawks, this area is home to a major deer wintering complex. Cannon River Trout Lily WMA will provide much needed public access for dispersed wildlife-based recreation including hunting, fishing, trapping, bird- watching, general nature observation, and to provide a natural environment for the study of wildlife and their habitats. This acquisition used the remaining $148,679 of the Cannon River Phase IV acquisition funds and $453,321 of the Cannon River Phase V acquisition funds.

Subject to evaluation criteria in Minnesota Rules 6136.0900, priority must be given to acquisition of lands that are eligible for the native prairie bank under Minnesota Statutes, section 84.96 or lands adjacent to protected native prairie. A list of proposed land acquisitions must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan.",,"The areas protected through this appropriation were identified and prioritized through, state, regional and local natural resource plans due to their high biodiversity, connectivity and ability to preserve habitat for both game species and species of greatest conservation need. Specifically, the shoreline zones protected are one of the most essential, and one of the most threatened, habitat resources in the state. They provide a range of benefits for fisheries, migratory waterfowl and upland game species.","A total of 253 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 253 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",66900,Private,1383200,20500,,0.28,"The Trust for Public Land","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Through fee-title acquisition, Trust for Public Land permanently protected 253 acres (115% of our goal) throughout the Cannon River Watershed. This resulted in two additions to existing Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs). These now publicly accessible and protected areas include wetland, prairie, and Big Woods forest habitat. The permanent protection of these places has reversed habitat loss, allowed for habitat restoration, and increased access to public lands for hunting, fishing, hiking, and other outdoor recreation opportunities.","The Cannon River Watershed Habitat Complex Phase VII program acquired 253 acres of high-quality wetland, prairie, remnant Big Woods forest, and shoreline habitat for fish, game and wildlife throughout the Cannon River Watershed. The protection and expansion of two large complexes (Murphy WMA and Aurora WMA) provides new opportunities for public hunting, fishing, and wildlife observation. The Cannon River Watershed program was designed to address the following issues: the degradation and loss of diverse habitat throughout the Cannon River Watershed, and the lack of available public lands for hunting and angling opportunities, especially within an hour's drive for over half of the state's population. The Phase VII program is a part of a multi-year conservation effort, focusing on the Cannon River Watershed, that includes acquisition, protection, and restoration of core parcels of land that will contribute to a large complex of restored prairies, grasslands, wetlands, forests, and shorelines. The Phase VII acquisitions were prioritized toward protecting existing large wetland/upland complexes and rare communities (Big Woods forest, oak savanna, tamarack swamp). In addition, landowner willingness to sell and the threat of conversion were also taken into consideration. Protection of these lands provides critical habitat for game species, including migratory waterfowl, upland birds, white tail deer, and fish. Protection will also provide access for a diversity of recreational experiences including duck, pheasant, turkey and deer hunting, fishing, and wildlife observation. In addition, restoration work conducted by the MN DNR has been focused on the degraded portions of the lands acquired and has included restoration of agricultural fields near wetlands and lakes back to native habitat. Specifically, two acquisitions were completed with Phase VII funding: 1. Murphy WMA Addition - Le Sueur County: Trust for Public Land acquired and conveyed 72 acres to the MN DNR to be managed as an addition to the Murphy Wildlife Management Area. Located directly on the Cannon River just north of Waterville, this acquisition connects the two units of Murphy WMA, squares up boundaries, and provides improved public access for quality outdoor recreation and hunting opportunities within an hour's drive of the Twin Cities. Trust for Public Land purchased this property using funds from both the ML17 and ML16 Cannon River grants. 2. Aurora WMA Addition - Steele County: Trust for Public Land acquired and conveyed 260 acres to the Minnesota DNR as an addition to Aurora WMA in Steele County. Located southeast of Owatonna, this property is a mix of wetland and grassland habit, and much of the area was in agricultural row crop production. The acquisition of this land not only protects the existing wetland habitat, it protects the headwaters of Turtle Creek and allows for the restoration of the agricultural fields back into prairie grasslands. Permanently protecting this land provides additional public access opportunities. Trust for Public Land purchased this property using funds from both the ML17 and ML18 Cannon River grants.",,2017-07-01,1970-01-01,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Robert,McGillivray,"The Trust for Public Land","2610 University Ave. #300","St. Paul",MN,55114,651-999-5307,rjm@tpl.org,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Le Sueur, Steele","Prairie Region",,https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/cannon-river-watershed-habitat-complex-phase-vii,,,,

I would like to purchase silkscreens and other materials needed for producing a series of dishtowels, coin purses, pillows and toy birds for the Institute's store.

The two floral quilts will complete this series of quilted wall hangings and add to the exhibitions ambiance! My textile work is heavily influenced by my Nordic heritage, honors my Swedish mother and embraces the textile traditions of Scandinavia. Exhibiting at the American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis will carry my artistic voice to a larger audience. My aesthetics, bold color arrangements and sense of modern design resinates with many urban dwellers and I hope brings inspiration to all who view my work at the ASI. Launching a small series of merchandise at the ASI store will hopefully benefit me financially, allow me to put my foot in the door for some continual revenue and open up more opportunities. My first love is free creation. However, my ""free creations"" such as Rainbow Warrior costumes and hats (see work samples) are not ""quick"" sales, if at all. They add depth to my artistic expression and I will continue to play with costumes and large wall works. Adding screen printing to the mix will allow me to produce small series of functional work for consumers to purchase. The quilts I want to produce will be large, bold and hopefully travel to Scandinavian venues in the United States and abroad. I am exhibiting other textiles in Finland and Estonia this summer and hope to make additional contacts in Copenhagen, Denmark.

My desire to acquire a deeper understanding of watercolor painting techniques has been a hurdle for me due to time constraints for practice and money to seek professional instruction. With this grant I will attend a 5 day watercolor painting workshop taught by Tara Sweeney. By taking this workshop I will expand my watercolor skills by demonstrating subjects that move in the natural world. In the class I will plan compositions, be taught about values and color; and build confidence and control off the watercolor medium. I will practice with professional tools to master them as well as the techniques taught in class. After my class I will take time to work on the techniques and incorporate them into my work. I will work to develop my new skills and then I will demonstrate in a solo show at Art and Soul gallery in early winter (TBD). I paint watercolor and in acrylic and though I have skills in both mediums I have taken few formal classes which concentrate on either. Often I find myself without the resources and time to really concentrate improving my painting skills. By taking this time to participate in a 5 day class in watercolor,""Figures in the Landscape"", taught by Tara Sweeney, I will be taking steps to achieve the goals of allowing myself the time to practice to become a better painter. With the professional supplies needed for the class and for the work produced after the class, I will have better painting results. After this five day class, I will be more confident in my watercolor work and will be inspired to use my better understanding of composition and specifically movement in my future work. To measure my success and to keep to a realistic time schedule, I will make arrangements to have a solo show at Art and Soul gallery in early winter about 2 months after my class (date TBD). These new pieces produced for the solo show will be professionally framed and matted.

My goal is to create mixed media panels, primarily of beadwork, that stylistically represent the major methodological practices, seasonal times of year, and harvest exemplifications of Bullhead clan members. Four (2'x2') velvet-backed panels of stylistic Anishinaabe beadwork will mark the seasonal time, under which will be 4 panels (1'x1') that represent the major preparation steps and final results of a season's chosen harvest; winter - fish spearing, spring - maple syrup processing, summer - medicine foraging, autumn - wild rice harvesting. By measuring progress of the project by completing each season's panel set by season change, my goals of this project are to educate community members through gallery exhibitions and artist-in-residence opportunities on a state-wide level. My evaluation plan is calendar based, in line with the seasons and Ojibwe protocol regarding storytelling and experiential education. As a beadworker with over 20 years of experience, I am confident in the number of panels that can be done to document major points of each seasonal harvest. From conceptualization to completion of each seasonal scene, I will reference my work with my teachers of each harvest experience to ensure that I am following their cultural standards of knowledge transmittal. By December 2018, I will have a complete body of work that I will submit for the following year's regional galleries exhibition season, as well as present my work at local cultural dances, feasts, and schools, and residency programs throughout the process by means of being in the communities I am impacting through my harvest territory. I intend to collect my instructors and cultural leaders' progressive reviews of my work which I will submit in my final evaluation plan and as a part of exhibition opportunities to demonstrate my commitment to cultural protocol in my personal creative practice.

This year I have the opportunity to display my work at my own residence (in my pole barn), but I need to prepare it for visual and safety reasons. This is considered a major local art showing, premiering artists of the North Shore area at their residence and having some guest artists from outside areas.

They have become known in the area as major arts supporting venue and have featured artists of substantial quality.

Four large finished batiks at end of six months from start of grant. 2. Proposals out to appropriate venues for an exhibition. Batik is a slow art. It is a negative image process, somewhat related to woodblock printing. The complicated process keeps the image under wax and fugitive dyes until the end, when the batik is boiled several minutes. Boiling does two things. The image is revealed, and the boiling temperature alters the color of the natural dyes. Sometimes that's so nice. Not always though. I do stay intrigued with batik just because I cannot fully control the outcome. Either the alchemy works with full note or it does not. Like music that goes into the mind nicely, or sometimes just hits a wrong chord. Each finished piece has to be evaluated after the finishing boil. About 60% are successful.

Using nothing but materials I gather myself – birch bark, spruce root, pine pitch, and various species of wood – I will assemble them into the traditional tools used to harvest wild rice. As an artist and craftsman, I aim to not only create these tools, but to explore the beauty held in their function, to bring out the inherent elegance of the materials and transform them into works of graceful art. The measurable outcome will be a finished birch bark ricing canoe, paddles, knockers, and a push pole. The success of the project is based on the creation of traditional tools and equipment that are not only functional and historically accurate, but have been molded by the art of fine craft. An inspiration for me is in one of my mentors, Steve Cayard of Wellington, Maine, who builds birch bark canoes that not only work better than any others, but are so finely made that you can't help but feel a sense of awe when you sit in one. Through sophisticated design and detail, I am working towards creating wild rice harvesting tools that elicit that same sense of wonder and reverence in their use. For functional evaluation, I will be harvesting wild rice in the fall and seeing firsthand how the tools perform. For historical accuracy, Mark Hansen, founder of the North House Folk School and master craftsman, and Erik Simula, a long time demonstrator at Grand Portage National Monument and a maker of traditional wild rice harvesting equipment, will be advising me in the building of the canoe and in researching the traditional techniques of our region used to make the various implements.","Completed set of traditional wild rice harvesting equipment: birch bark canoe, cedar knockers, push pole, and paddles.",,1768,"Other, local or private",3000,,,,"Nate Johnson",Individual,"Career Development Grant",,"Traditional Wild Rice Harvesting Equipment",2015-07-01,2015-09-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Nate,Johnson,"Nate Johnson",,,MN,,"(218) 255-1345 ",theonestraw@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,Lake,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/career-development-grant-7,"John Gregor: photographer, art educator, community art advocate; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Ann Russ: music performer, community song leader, choir director, workshop leader, past director and founder of North Shore Music Association; Moira Villiard: visual artist and student of arts and communication at University of Wisconsin-Superior; Erling Ellison: jewelry designer and creator, speech coach and judge, director of Garrison Art Fair; Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist.","Erling Ellison: jewelry designer and creator, speech coach and judge, director of Garrison Art Fair; Ken Bloom: Director of Tweed Museum of Art, University of Minnesota-Duluth; Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist; Kate Fitzgerald: Program Director North Shore Music Association, writer; Peter Pestalozzi: furniture maker, wood worker; David Beard: Assistant Professor University of Minnesota-Duluth writing studies; Mark King: actor, theater reviewer, musician; Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; John Gregor: photographer, art educator, community art advocate; Ann Russ: music performer, community song leader, choir director, workshop leader, past director and founder of North Shore Music Association; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Dana Mattice: Development and Communications Director of The Art Institute Duluth; Moira Villiard: visual artist and student of arts and communication at University of Wisconsin-Superior.",,

This broadens my artistic achievements to make a weaving studio with a combination of looms. Handmade looms are especially intriguing as each one is different because immigrants made them the way they knew how “in the old country.” The Factory Made looms used in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s were built because of the need for cloth. The outcomes of this project will be 3-4 (or more) renovated looms that all have working parts. They will be ready for weavers to prepare for weaving by warping (putting on yarns). These looms will be ready for use in the Art Studio in Old School Lives in Cotton, Minnesota. An additional outcome is that an assistant will be working and learning alongside me. This provides me feedback that my skill and learning is being passed on to another weaver, who can then become a Weaving Studio manager herself. Three main things will be achieved. One is that there will be 3-4 restored looms. Secondly, an Assistant will have learned a great deal about the looms, and the functioning of those looms. Thirdly, I will have achieved learning about the many looms that are there, and very much about the ones we do restore. 1. Three to four (or more) looms must be assembled with all parts. 2. They must work correctly. To make them workable one must understand how a loom works, and know what parts are necessary to make it work. Furthermore, one must know how to balance the parts to make them work with the right tension on the warp threads so that weaving can proceed. 3. We might have to warp a loom to demonstrate tension issues, as well as how to balance pulleys and harnesses. 4. The Trainer (me) will have to choose which looms to restore. I will also have to visualize and determine how they can fit in to the space available. 5. The Trainee (Ginger) will have successfully begun to understand a loom and how it works. 6. Repaired parts and replacement parts are functional and provide the correct mechanics that are necessary to make them work. The woodworkers will know that their work was of high value. 7. An eclectic looking group of parts of looms now are working as a loom should. 8. My new skills are evidenced in the final product of old looms turned into “NEW” old looms.","1. Reinforce my reverence for Historic Looms: I am honored that I could rapidly interpret the needed repairs and adjustments for each loom. I am so excited that I was able to do this and feel so much more competent. 2. Learn more about how they were made: each loom had different types of brakes, harnesses were different from loom to loom, attached or unattached seats were different on each loom, one loom had so many bolts on it, it was just astonishing, and one loom used springs instead of pulley systems (wow!). 3. 3-4 looms will be restored; we overachieved this goal by restoring 8 looms! 4. They will be ready for use in the Textile Studio at Old School Lives: one needs to put the threads on the looms before they can actually be balanced with the right tension to weave. This will happen as warping techniques,"" a class to be scheduled. 5. Assistant will be working and learning alongside me: hand-made characteristics of each loom was reviewed and discussed with Ginger as we worked on them. 6. Provides me with feedback that skills are being learned and passed on to another weaver: we warped one loom to do a test run to get the thread tension right so weaving can happen. One rag rug is started on it as of this writing, and Ginger is just thrilled that this is working! Discussions with Ginger about the looms, loom parts, and how they work to make the loom function correctly gave me the feedback that she has learned a great deal about the looms and how to take care of them.""",,1709,"Other, local or private",2900,,,,"Barbara Leuelling",Individual,"Career Development Grant",,"Learn about and Restore Historic Looms for Weaving, Learning and Teaching Center in Cotton, Minnesota.",2015-07-01,2015-12-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Barbara,Leuelling,"Barbara Leuelling",,,MN,,"(218) 741-5299 ",barb2550@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"St. Louis",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/career-development-grant-14,"John Gregor: photographer, art educator, community art advocate; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Ann Russ: music performer, community song leader, choir director, workshop leader, past director and founder of North Shore Music Association; Moira Villiard: visual artist and student of arts and communication at University of Wisconsin-Superior; Erling Ellison: jewelry designer and creator, speech coach and judge, director of Garrison Art Fair; Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist.","Erling Ellison: jewelry designer and creator, speech coach and judge, director of Garrison Art Fair; Ken Bloom: Director of Tweed Museum of Art, University of Minnesota-Duluth; Janeen Carey: vocalist, retired Hibbing Community College librarian and information media specialist; Kate Fitzgerald: Program Director North Shore Music Association, writer; Peter Pestalozzi: furniture maker, wood worker; David Beard: Assistant Professor University of Minnesota-Duluth writing studies; Mark King: actor, theater reviewer, musician; Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; John Gregor: photographer, art educator, community art advocate; Ann Russ: music performer, community song leader, choir director, workshop leader, past director and founder of North Shore Music Association; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Dana Mattice: Development and Communications Director of The Art Institute Duluth; Moira Villiard: visual artist and student of arts and communication at University of Wisconsin-Superior.",,

The Minnesota Land Trust and Washington County will protect 369 acres of the Corridor's most threatened, high quality forest and aquatic habitat in this first phase of the project. This project represents a unique opportunity to conserve intact habitat of this magnitude within the LSOHC's Metropolitan Urbanizing Area, and includes nearly 5 miles of shoreline and supports 70 species in greatest conservation need.","The Carnelian Creek Conservation Corridor has long been a conservation target of Washington County, DNR, Minnesota Land Trust and other conservation organizations due to its rich forest habitat and its abundant clear lakes which are currently completely undeveloped—a rare feature in the Twin Cities Metropolitan area. The Minnesota Land Trust and Washington County have formed a partnership to complete this first phase of the Carnelian Creek Conservation Corridor Project by securing a perpetual conservation easement on 369 acres which forms the critical core of the larger 2,700 acre Corridor. We intend to complete the full 735-acre project as initially proposed through additional leverage from program partners and existing OHF grants to the Land Trust (Metro Big Rivers 5, 6 and 7), with outcomes split proportionately among this (369 acres) and these other associated grants (366 acres).This first phase of the Carnelian Creek Conservation Corridor Project, known as the “Terrapin Lakes Site”, will cover 369 acres of high quality habitat and more than 5 miles of shoreline that Warner Nature Center will own at the time of the easement. This project will ensure that the core wildlife habitat area of the Corridor will be protected forever from development, fragmentation and poor land management. This project represents a unique window in time due to having a motivated landowner in Warner Nature Center and to Washington County's commitment to dedicate funds from its Land and Water Legacy Fund. There is nothing that currently legally protects the property from development. The terms of the conservation easement will ensure the property's protection for generations to come. This first phase of the project at the Terrapin Lakes Site is specifically noted as having: • Oak and maple-basswood forest habitat identified as having high-quality biodiversity by the DNR due to its undisturbed canopy and significant age;• High biodiversity for species in greatest conservation need such as Blanding's Turtle, the Common Snapping Turtle and Eastern Fox Snake, the Red-shouldered Hawk, Bald Eagle, Rose-Breasted Grosbeak, and American Woodcock;• Nearly 5 miles of shoreline and riparian habitat on North and South Terrapin, Mays and Clear Lakes;• High quality water discharge and recharge areas which help maintain aquatic habitat and water quality; and• High quality undeveloped shallow (Upper Terrapin) and deep (Mays and Lower Terrapin) lakes.This project represents an urgent and important protection opportunity due to the landowner's current interest in conservation and to the commitment of Washington County to participate in funding the project through its Land and Water Legacy Program. We anticipate >50% of the easement's acquisition costs to be funded by non-state sources, making this a very high leverage project for the Outdoor Heritage Fund. And while the project will not specifically require public access, more than 15,000 children and adults experience the site's unique and abundant wildlife habitat each year through Warner Nature Center's programs.

The first short term target was ?improved knowledge of 350 items with direct relevance to our mission.? This goal was achieved and then exceeded because upon completion of the project a total of 394 objects were inventoried. Following our inventory procedure, identical duplicates of any object were documented together on the same catalog form, which meant a total of 354 new records were completed. Therefore, we were able to inventory an additional 44 objects and create 4 additional records above our original target. The second short term target was identified as ?increased public awareness of Hennepin County?s history of invention and innovation.? This was achieved through the completion of 35 blog posts about the objects inventoried. All of these blogs have been, or are schedule to be, published on our website. This target was also exceeded in that after each blog is published, they are linked to and promoted on our social media platforms which increases awareness further than the reach of the website alone, and allows us to measure audience engagement with each post. The immediate term impact was identified as ?improved quality of our upcoming Inventions & Innovations exhibition.? This was explained as the ability to create an exhibition that drew primarily from our own collection of cataloged objects, rather than relying on loans from outside institutions. This aspect of the target has already been achieved. The exhibition will display mainly objects that were inventoried and researched during this project. As the exhibition has not opened yet, we will revisit this target later to measure overall success. This evaluation will be done after the museum has a chance to gather visitor feedback during and after the run of the exhibit in order to determine if the audience was satisfied with the selection of objects displayed and information presented to them. In the long term, this project?s impact is that it has brought us closer to our final goal of having a fully inventoried collection that is accessible not only to staff and researchers, but also to the public. This progress is marked by the total number of objects cataloged, photographed, entered into our database; which equals more than 1.5% of the total collection. In conclusion, all targets set for this project were either achieved or exceeded. Ultimately, this project has made significant positive impacts on Hennepin History Museum by improving our knowledge of our collection, advancing the collections inventory, improving the quality of our upcoming exhibition, and increasing public awareness to the history of invention and innovation in Hennepin County.",,,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",9983,,"Cara Letofsky, Barbara Grahn, Shawn Hartfeldt, Becka Rahn, Kim Jeppesen, Kristen Perry, Amanda Norman, Kara O'Brien, Layne Johnson, Tina Sanz (Ex-officio), Debbie Goettel (Ex-officio)",0.33,"Hennepin History Museum","Non-Profit Business/Entity",,,"To provide better organization of the museum collections, allowing for greater public access to the community?s historic resources.",2018-03-01,2019-03-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Cara,Letofsky,"Hennepin History Museum"," 2303 Third Avenue South "," Minneapolis "," MN ",55404,"(612) 718-3495"," cara.letofsky@hennepinhistory.org ",Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Historical Society",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/cataloging-inventions-innovation-collection,"Visit https://www.mnhs.org/preservation/legacy-grants/advisory-committee","Visit https://www.mnhs.org/about/leadership",,No

Presently there are not cost-effective methods available to deal with these waste streams other than land application, which usually results in nutrient runoff into ground and surface water resources. Better treatment of these waste streams is necessary, but treatment alone is not only expensive but usually fails to capture resource values contained within these waste streams that could be put to other uses. Additionally, these two waste streams together contain complimentary nutrients needed for biological processes such as fermentation and anaerobic digestion. Researchers at the University of Minnesota Southern Research and Outreach Center are using this appropriation to develop, test, and evaluate technologies that utilize these two different agricultural waste streams containing complementary nutrients to produce value-added byproducts in the forms of bioenergy and fertilizer while reducing the negative impact of both waste streams on water quality.",,http://www.lccmr.leg.mn/projects/2014/work_plans/2014_08f.pdf,2014-07-01,2017-06-30,"Environment & Natural Resources Trust Fund",Completed,,,Shaobo,Deng,"U of MN","35838 120th Street",Waseca,MN,56093,"(507) 835-1495",dengx007@umn.edu,,"University of Minnesota ",,Statewide,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/clean-water-and-renewable-energy-beet-processing-wastewater-and-manure-0,,,,

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.

The long-term goal is to publish truthful, well-written stories about all facets of military life. This will help narrow the divide between civilians and service members (the “civilian-military gap""ť). This can be accomplished by publishing stories about the whole spectrum of military life: from home as a family member to combat and everything in between. Writers will be offered classes that support these goals: - Improving Writing Skills - Learning How to Get Published - Building Networks - Increasing Motivation. There are fifteen hours of lessons. A separate 2-hour event open to the public (Public Reading / Moderated Panel Discussion) is scheduled for the evening of the first day. Outcomes will be measured with pre- and post-workshop surveys. Fourteen of those hours will be devoted to Improving Writing Skills. One hour will be about Learning How to Get Published. The entire weekend will be spent Building Networks. Success will be a completed roster of contact information. Increasing Motivation will occur throughout the workshop, but especially during the public event. The Director of Bridging the Gap will maintain a record of workshop writers that get published.","5 of the 8 attending writers completed Workshop Surveys about Bridging the Gap. 100% answered yes to the following question: ""Do you think the workshop improved your skills as a writer?"" 100% also answered yes to this question: ""Should this workshop happen again?"" The four main short term objectives were: To teach classes in the craft of writing, motivation, networking, and lessons in how to get published. The survey self-reports success in the writing craft objective. Networking happened by default between the writers and lessons in how to get published were taught. Increased motivation was not measured, but I'm hopeful that these writers are more motivated to write. - The long term objective was to help these writers get truthful, well-written stories about military life published so they can narrow the divide between civilians and servicemembers.

Course development work will be evaluated by the completion of step-by-step tutorials and demo stories for each class session. A brief written evaluation form will be collected from participants at the end of each session to gauge effectiveness of written materials and face-to-face training and support and to gain details on needs. The course will be adjusted for continuous improvement. Completion and sharing of a digital story with AR by each participant based on their skills and interests will measure course success.

As a result of the grant-funded workshops, mobile stories were created by the eight course participants. Some are shared publicly on the website and in the Aris app. Through the grantee's participation at multiple events hosted by arts organizations in Spring 2018, including Lake Superior Writers and the Duluth Film Collective, approximately 60 local writers and filmmakers were introduced to mobile storytelling and viewed demonstrations of mobile stories with augmented reality.

(Did this project enhance your understanding of mural painting and the role of murals in our community? Please explain. Did the project increase your interest in public art? How/why? Will this experience encourage you to participate in future community art projects?)

Educators, musicians, clergy and the public will be invited to attend this event. During the concert, narrative will set context and history of the Requiem for the audience, from medieval times to the present. The concert features the area premiere of “Requiem for the Living""ť by Dan Forrest. This include organ, an orchestra of winds, violin, harp and percussion and two soprano soloists. This acclaimed new work has been performed multiple times at Carnegie Hall and on NPR's Performance Today. The emphasis in all of this is to offer hope in the human condition. The Chorale will evaluate the response of the audience to the symposium, and singer and performer satisfaction with repertoire and performance. The Board will hold a meeting within the month following the concert to focus on finances, performance satisfaction, the collaboration with our guest lecturer, and the feedback from an audience survey and a singer survey. All information gathered will be used to assist in future planning, collaborations with area organizations and individuals, and continued relationships with area instrumentalists and soloists. Evaluations on the value of the educational event will be assessed using feedback from those in attendance at that event in particular.","Because assisting both the artists and the audiences is part of the mission and goals of the Chorale, educational events are often a part of the concert season. We hoped that the outcomes would include: 1. 25+ people from various professions would attend the educational event 2. People who work with the dying would understand this art expression more fully 3. The Chorale would offer consolation through music to the audience 4. Performers would grasp the role of the Requiem as an art form as well as a religious event Evaluation included conversations with and a survey of our audience members, participating musicians and Board. Two extraordinary concerts were held, the educational successfully took place, and the response to both was both emphatic and enthusiastic. This was one of the most loved concerts that the Chorale has performed, according to feedback, and the educational event helped to convey the background, intent, and direction of the Requiem Mass for out audiences.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",9685,"Other,local or private",12555,2870,"Susan Masterson, Mary Pat Renaud, Rod Dahlquist, Rick Sailstad, Alisa Kiprof, Samuel Black, Nathaniel Winesett, Kim Keuning, Cecelia Riehl",,"Arrowhead Chorale","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts Learning Grant",,"Requiem Mosaic: History and use behind the music and the form.",2018-01-01,2018-05-15,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Susan,Masterson,"Arrowhead Chorale","506 Michigan St W",Duluth,MN,55802,"(218) 733-7521 ",arrowheadchorale@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"St. Louis, Carlton",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-learning-grant-13,"Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist, Cultural Programming Coordinator at American Indian Community Housing Organization; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor UMD Music, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, and former Children's Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artists, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Kayla Schubert: Native American craft artist, writer, employee at MacRostie Art Center.","Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist, Cultural Programming Coordinator at American Indian Community Housing Organization; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor UMD Music, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, and former Children's Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artists, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Kayla Schubert: Native American craft artist, writer, employee at MacRostie Art Center.",,2

In this way, learners reported, they gained an awareness of how the march towards human rights progress has relied on music to carry it forward.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",1768,"Other,local or private",6535,690,"Chel Anderson, Wayne Russ, Jane Alexander, Greg Tofte, Cheryl Larsen, Philis Anderson, Carl Solander, Tracey Cullen, Will Moore",,"North Shore Music Association","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts Learning Grant",,"Robert Jones and Matt Watroba: Musical duo teaches about cultural and racial diversity and tolerance.",2018-10-01,2018-12-15,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Kate,Fitzgerald,"North Shore Music Association","PO Box 1376","Grand Marais",MN,55604-1376,"(218) 387-1272 ",music@boreal.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,Cook,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-learning-grant-19,"Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Kathy Neff: musician, Director, Fine Arts Academy at the University of Minnesota-Duluth; Richard Hansen: Executive Director, Duluth Superior Film Festival; Kayla Schubert: Native American craft artist, writer, employee at MacRostie Art Center; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor; Karissa Isaacs: curator of Tweed Museum at the University of Minnesota Duluth.","Adam Guggemos: graphic designer, art events promoter; Michelle Ronning: jewelry designer and maker; Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Moira Villiard: visual artist, Cultural Programming Coordinator at American Indian Community Housing Organization; Jeanne Doty: Retired Associate Professor UMD Music, pianist; Amber Burns: choreographer, dancer, actor, middle school art teacher; Margaret Holmes: visual artist, poet, and former Children's Theatre employee; Tammy Mattonen: visual artists, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Kayla Schubert: Native American craft artist, writer, employee at MacRostie Art Center; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor; Emily Fasbender: student liaison, visual artist",,2

It has also established a pathway of priorities for improvements, tentative cost for those improvements, and possible funding sources. It lays the groundwork for immediate needs and the next goal of a reuse study for Coleraine?s city hall. An added benefit of the assessment report is it reinforced the citizen?s original thought that they were correct in assuming the building was important to the city for both its historical significance and usability, and their petition to the city council for preservation of some sort was justified. We obtained these results because of time spent researching other community approaches to similar circumstances and gaining from them knowledge and assistance in the process. Our approach also involved ing and researching a number of consulting firms, many of which asked for a tour of the building and gave us unsolicited, advantageous suggestions. Having community members involved in analyzing and reviewing these firms in the selection process was also instrumental in selecting the proper firm. The firm selected was extremely attentive to our concerns and wishes and, we feel, provided us with a quality report that addressed all our issues.

Of this amount, up to $2,660,000 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. CPL Administration Budget: Administration costs of $101,300 include salary/fringe, direct support services, travel, supplies, outreach, ongoing application system/database maintenance, and other professional services.

Close Encounters Close Encounters is an extremely popular special onsite Zoo program that allows Zoo staff to offer daily zookeeper-led interpretive talks involving guest “encounters” with Zoo animals. These animals are trained to be comfortable in public settings and therefore serve as ambassadors for their species in the wild. Legacy funding supports the staff and facilities needed for this program. Close Encounters staff also provide animal enrichment and behavior training activities throughout the day, involving Zoo guests in these activities whenever possible.

Stakeholders involved in this program include applicants, reviewers, and land managers. No opposition is known.  Grant activities include enhancement, restoration, and protection of forests, wetlands, prairies, and habitat for fish, game, or wildlife in Minnesota's municipalities and metro areas. Applicants will describe the project location, activity type and habitat, benefit to habitat, fish, game and wildlife, and duration of benefits. A 10% match from nonstate sources is required for all grants. Match may be cash or in-kind, and must be identified at time of application. The metro grant program will be managed alongside the traditional Conservation Partners Legacy Grant Program. All personnel costs will be provided through the traditional CPL admin budget. CPL Program Staff will develop a Request for Proposal (RFP)/ Program Manual incorporating LSOHC priorities. Staff will also solicit applications, work with applicants to submit scoreable applications, oversee grant selection, prepare/execute grant documents, review expenditure documentation ensuring 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 The RFP/Program Manual will be posted on the CPL website in August 2014. The metro CPL grant cycle will have one guaranteed grant round and a second round if more than $500,000 remains. Applications will be accepted online through mid-September for Round 1. The traditional CPL grant application system will be modified to include the metro cycle. Projects under $25,000 will have a simplified application. After two grant rounds, the Council may recommend the transfer of remaining funds to the Conservation Partners Legacy Grant Program ML2014. DNR may choose to make additional awards under this announcement, consistent with DNR and OHF policy and guidance, if additional funding becomes available or if a grantee cannot complete a project as planned. Grant Selection Process Metro CPL applications will be scored and ranked using a revised evaluation criteria based on the list below. CPL Grant Program Staff will review applications for completeness. Technical Review Committees, selected by the Commissioner of Natural Resources, will evaluate applications and a final score will be given to all applications. Committees may include representatives from local or county park districts, DNR, BWSR, the University of MN, state universities or private colleges, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, or other appropriate members from government, non-profit and business organizations. A final ranking committee comprised of directors of the DNR Divisions of Fish and Wildlife, Ecological and Water Resources, and Forestry will consider the TRC, Division and Regional DNR comments and recommend projects to the Commissioner. The Commissioner will make final funding decisions. CPL Grant Program staff work with grantees to complete financial reviews, grant agreements, and other paperwork. Work may not begin until grant is executed. Application Criteria  Applications will be evaluated on the following criteria:  Amount/quality of habitat restored, enhanced, or protected Local support  Degree of collaboration  Urgency  Multiple benefits  Habitat benefits  Consistency with current conservation science  Adjacent to protected lands  Full funding of project  Budget/cost effectiveness  Public access  Use of native plant materials  Applicants’ capacity to successfully complete, sustain work Project Reviews and Reporting Grantees submit annual accomplishment reports on forms provided by CPL staff, based on L-SOHC report forms. Reports account for the use of grant/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 Grant staff will submit accomplishment reports to L-SOHC as required and post reports on CPL website.  CPL Administration Budget Grant administration costs of $70,000 will be billed using actual costs. Costs include travel, equipment, supplies, and professional services for outreach, monitoring, application and database maintenance, and advertising. An internal Service Level Agreement (SLA) will be developed with DNR’s Management Information Systems to update/manage the online grant application system. Direct Support Services costs will be minimal as all salary costs for this program will come out of the Conservation Partners Legacy Grant Program ML2014 admin funds. The admin budget from the traditional CPL grant program will fund the three FTEs necessary to run this new program along with the ongoing CPL grant program with a cumulative budget of over $20 million. As of May 2013, there are 148 active CPL grants, and an additional 42 grants have recently been completed and closed. Having 3 FTEs will ensure that the CPL program is able to effectively promote the program, monitor grants, and meet all program requirements. 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 a reimbursement or “for services rendered” basis, meaning payment is made to the grantee after work has been performed or materials have been purchased, but before the vendor is paid by the grantee. Grantees must provide proof that work has been completed or a purchase has been made in order to receive payment. Proof that the vendor was paid must be submitted to CPL staff before additional grant payments are made. Funds may be advanced to acquisition projects to accommodate cash flow.

",,"Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) was founded in 1856 and is one of the oldest continuously operating entities in Minnesota's capital city. Twenty-six SPPS buildings, still in use, were built before 1930. As a result of the Baby Boom, the district has 22 schools built in the 20 years following WWII alone. Immigration brought an influx of new citizens to Saint Paul in the 1970s, another peak time for building schools in the city. Our public-school buildings represent many decades and styles of architecture and contain within them a history of changes in our society and education practice. This grant-funded a historic context of Saint Paul Public Schools, focusing on the period between 1890 and 1978. In-depth research on the district's development was conducted at various archives and repositories. The report identifies significant periods of growth, and the factors that influenced the design, construction, and closure of school properties. Notable architectural styles, features, and architects are also discussed. The report concludes with recommendations for a future intensive-level survey.

The MGS focuses on geology (Part A reports) and DNR focuses on groundwater (Part B reports). These provide useful information for projects completed by community planners, industry, agriculture, citizens and state agencies related to groundwater. The reports are routinely used to make informed decisions for projects related to water, natural resources, and land-use planning. Typical applications include long-term water supply planning and well construction design, wellhead protection planning, groundwater modeling, identification of valuable natural resources and planning for their use and protection, planning for landfills, septic systems, industrial sites and feedlots, emergency response to contaminate releases, and community education. When completed, the atlas is an economic benefit for a county and its communities. The DNR Atlas Program also completes specialty studies including groundwater dye tracing, monitoring sentinel springs, and projects to find the source of pathogens in groundwater and public water supplies. ","Approximately 75 percent of Minnesotans get their water for drinking and other needs from groundwater. A stable, long-term and reliable source of high quality groundwater is an economic benefit to communities. An atlas provides detailed information about an area's groundwater that helps communities find reliable water sources and manage them to maintain availability and quality for generations. Without informed water supply planning, groundwater pumping or land-use changes could impact public water quality and availability and degrade surface waters (wetlands, lakes, rivers, and unique resources such as trout streams and fens).

",,"The natural shoreline around Minnesota?s celebrated lakes and rivers comprises one of the most biologically important systems in the state for fish, game and wildlife and is also one of its most threatened. Phase 4 of the Land Trust's Critical Shoreland program preserved critical shoreland habitats in northeast Minnesota - an important component of the state's natural heritage. These habitats are essential to maintaining healthy populations of the region's fish and wildlife populations (trout and other fish, waterfowl, and Species in Greatest Conservation Need) and maintaining water quality of associated aquatic resources. The protection of these habitats has been identified in numerous plans as a conservation priority for Minnesota, including the Minnesota Biological Survey, the DNR?s Aquatic Management Area program, the State Conservation and Preservation Plan, Minnesota DNR Strategic Conservation Agenda, and the Outdoor Heritage Fund: A 25 Year Framework. The central goal of our Critical Shoreland program is to protect high-quality critical shoreland habitat by securing permanent conservation easements in strategic locations along priority lakes and rivers, leaving a lasting legacy of protected habitat complexes.","A total of 1,094 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 1,094 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",303900,"MLT and Private Landowners",1283500,34400,,0.28,"Minnesota Land Trust","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Through this grant, the Minnesota Land Trust protected approximately 8.25 miles of critical shoreland and 1,095 acres of high-quality fish and wildlife habitat in northeast Minnesota by securing four permanent conservation easements in strategic locations along priority lakes and rivers, exceeding our land protection goals by 332% and shoreland protection goals by 825%. Conservation easements secured under this program are perpetual and will prevent fragmentation and destruction of existing habitat. These easements ensure that sensitive habitat will remain ecologically viable and productive for fish, game, and other wildlife by prohibiting land uses that negatively impact important habitat values. ","The natural shoreland around Minnesota's lakes and rivers comprises one of the most biologically important systems in the state for fish, game and wildlife; due to the intensity of shoreland development and non-compatible management, it is also one of its most threatened. In order to preserve this important component of Minnesota's natural heritage, the Minnesota Land Trust implemented Phase 4 of its Critical Shoreland Habitat Protection Program to protect important lakeshore and stream-side habitat. This project built on the success of Phases 1-3 of this program and helped fulfill the goals of the DNR's Aquatic Management Area program, the State Wildlife Action Plan, and many other state priorities. Development and disturbance of the state's remaining sensitive shoreland habitat is a priority threat identified in many of the State's resource protection plans. Science conducted by the DNR and others indicate that the shoreland zone is one of the most biologically diverse and important habitat types for a variety of wildlife species. Landowner outreach conducted under Phases 1-3 of this program generated significant landowner interest; this Phase 4 provided additional resources to meet this demand. In Phase 4 of the program, the Land Trust strategically concentrated its activity on important aquatic resources and associated forest habitat within northeast Minnesota, including DNR-designated high priority trout streams along the North Shore, sensitive shoreline along the deep-water border lakes and other high-quality aquatic habitats in the region. Through the grant, the Land Trust protected 8.25 miles and 1,095 acres of threatened shoreline habitat through permanent conservation easements. Conservation easements secured under this program are perpetual and were drafted to further prevent the fragmentation and destruction of existing habitat. These easements will ensure that the sensitive shoreline habitat will remain ecologically viable and productive for fish, game and wildlife by prohibiting land uses that negatively impacts the important habitat values and requiring habitat management plans to maximize the benefits of the shoreland and associated forested uplands. Outcomes from this project included: 1) healthy populations of trout and other fish species, waterfowl, and other Species in Greatest Conservation Need; 2) maintained water quality of aquatic resources; 3) increased participation of private landowners in habitat projects; and 4) enhancement of prior state and local investments made in shoreland and forest conservation in the region.

These targets were achieved.1) We successfully laid out the site mapping grid to facilitate the systematic metal detector survey, archaeological shovel testing, and archaeological test units. 2) We successfully located ""positive"" metal detector hits indicative of possible artifacts, artifact concentrations, and features associated with the U.S. Military Post at Sauk Centre. 3) We successful excavated 2 archaeological shovel tests over suspected artifacts, artifact concentrations, and cultural features. This included the collection of all archaeological materials within shovel tests and the complete documentation of each fully excavated shovel test. We successfully excavated 4 test units to expose cultural features potentially associated with the U.S. Military Post at Sauk Centre. This included the collection of all archaeological materials within each test unit and the complete documentation of each fully excavated test unit. 4) We successfully transported all recovered archaeological materials back to the Archaeology Laboratory at SCSU. We successfully washed, sorted, and identified all recovered archaeological materials. Intermediate Term: Analysis of the metal detector and archaeological data recovered during Phases One, Two, and Three of the project in order to assess the findings of the investigations. This target was achieved. We believe we have successfully interpreted the metal detector and archaeological data and that these data indicate the presence of cultural deposits related to the U.S. Military Post at Sauk Centre. We believe that these data aid us in gaining a better understanding of the construction, layout, and use of the U.S. Military Post at Sauk Centre. For example, we believe we have successfully located activity areas associated with the barn/commissary and Officers' Quarters of the Sauk Centre Post. Long Term: 1) That the local community will derive ongoing educational and cultural benefits from the findings of this project. 2) That the project will result in long-term research (3 -5 years) at the site of the U.S. Military Post at Sauk Centre, including a possible NRHP assessment of the site. These targets have been partially achieved. 1) The local community does support future archaeological investigations at the site. We believe that the local community will continue to protect and preserve the cultural resources associated with the U.S. Military Post at Sauk Centre and that the local community will actively include the site in any efforts to promote the history and cultural heritage of Sauk Centre. 2) There are tentative plans to undertake additional and expanded archaeological investigations at the site, especially in areas where STP and test excavations have indicated the presence of archaeological features. Future investigations could include the teaching of an archaeological field school at the site and/or using the site as a basis for research topics and questions related to additional Master's thesis projects.

",,"Prairie habitats once covered one-third of the state but presently less than 2% remain. Native prairie, other grasslands that provides habitat for wildlife, and wetlands are key components of functional prairie landscapes that have the capacity to adapt to changing environmental conditions. While these appropriation only added 2,085 acres of grassland acres to the state through restoration, these funds enhanced a much larger area. Put in another fashion, we restored and enhanced 69.5 square miles with these funds. That's an area 8.3 by 8.3 miles in area. None of this work was targeted at a specific species of wildlife. We used that approach that diverse productive habitats benefit a wide variety of both game and non-game wildlife species as well as any threatened or endangered species. In our restorations, we use very diverse seed mixes. This is obviously beneficial for pollinators. However, all those insects also create a food base for a large number of wildlife species. The structural diversity all those plant species create in the habitat allow every species to find an ideal niche in the grass as well as accomodates different life history stages of wildlife.","A total of 40,539 acres were affected: 1,191 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 39,348 in Enhance.",,,3586000,190400,,7.5,DNR,"State Government","We restored and enhanced a total of 40,539 grassland acres with 446 activities on Wildlife Management Areas, Scientific and Natural Areas, Native Prairie Bank easements, Waterfowl Production Areas, and National Wildlife Refuges.","We select projects using a number of criteria and reviews to make sure the DNR and our federal partners, the USFWS, were spending these funds in the best and most productive ways.

Brome conversion 76 Interseeding 51 Grassland restoration 1,191 Prescribed Fire 36,079 Herbaceous Invasive Control 1,503 Goat Browsing - woody removal281 Woody Removal 1,358 TOTAL 40,539 This appropriation involved the Southeast 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 will be hosting a workshop later this fall to discuss the science and management behind seasonal burns so that all staff and partners can continue to learn new applications for old tools. This appropriation included a partnership with the USFWS. They were able to bring in 'detailers', federal crews from outside MN to dramatically enhance their capacity and ability to enhance wildlife habitat on WPAs and Refuges. The final acres reported here are reduced from our recent Status Updates. In further conversations with the USFWS, we calculated the number of detailers, number of in-state fire staff, and pro-rated the acres to account for this ratio. We were also able to experiment 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. 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.

This should in turn increase native plant diversity and increase pollinator habitat.   One area new for this appropriation is conservation grazing, although in this case much of it could be referred to as conservation browsing.  Goats were used in some cases for grazing prairie, especially on steep slopes.  These areas are often dangerous for equipment and the goats reduce reliance on chemicals.  Below is one description from DNR staff of this type of project.   ""At Mound Prairie SNA, west of Hokah, MN, goats have spent multiple seasons grazing two bluff prairies cleared of eastern red cedar trees and invasive brush, such as buckthorn and honeysuckle.  The goats were able to reduce the vigor of the woody vegetation, allowing native grasses and forbs an opportunity to grow.  Using goats reduced the amount of chemical needed to control the invasive woody brush! There is now a sufficient grass component to facilitate prescribed burning.""       A similar project in central Minnesota shows the benefits of cedar removal to prairie plants and wildlife.    ""Starting in 2016 and continuing into 2019 invading trees and brush were removed from about 25 acres of rock outcrop and wet prairie at Cedar Rock SNA in Redwood County.  The work was done in two phases; first large trees (mostly cedar) were cut, treated, piled and burned.  Two years later a follow-up pass was made to control buckthorn which had grown after the removal of the taller trees.  Although formal post-treatment surveys have not been conducted; previously undocumented rare plants are apparent and the area appears to harbor a broad array of both plant and animal species."" One area that gets little attention in habitat work is the ecosystem benefits of that work.  Again, numerous studies have shown that grassland restoration is a very good way to remove carbon from the air, helping to mitigate climate change.  Even prescribed burning, because it stimulates root growth will help remove carbon from the air and store the carbon in the soil.   As always, monitoring continues to be an issue with all these projects, both at the individual site and the larger landscape.  The conservation partners in the state, including DNR, FWS, TNC, and others, continue to work to develop statistically rigorous ways of addressing these questions.   Attached are a series of images from Mound Prairie SNA (word doc) and Cedar Rock SNA (indiv jpgs).  The Mound Prairie images show the impacts of cedar removal in the SE.  The Cedar Rock aerial images show how cedars were only scattered over the site in the 1930s, covered the site before this project, and how these funds help open up a large area to prairie.   For this final report, dollars for each project are pro-rated based on the acre percentage for each project relative to the budget.   ",2014-07-01,2019-10-31,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,"Greg ",Hoch,"DNR Wildlife","500 Lafayette Rd ","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5230",greg.hoch@state.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Anoka, Becker, Beltrami, Big Stone, Blue Earth, Clay, Clearwater, Crow Wing, Dakota, Douglas, Faribault, Fillmore, Goodhue, Grant, Houston, Kanabec, Kandiyohi, Kittson, Lac qui Parle, Le Sueur, Lyon, Mahnomen, Marshall, McLeod, Meeker, Norman, Olmsted, Otter Tail, Pine, Pope, Red Lake, Redwood, Rice, Scott, Sherburne, Sibley, Stevens, Swift, Todd, Traverse, Wabasha, Wadena, Washington, Wilkin, Winona, Yellow Medicine","Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Prairie Region, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/dnr-grassland-phase-vi,,,,

This appropriation funded five stream projects, several of which involved external partners. Individual project details are outlined below. - Sand Hill River Fish Passage Project: This project partnered with the Sand Hill River Watershed District and Army Corps of Engineers to restore fish passage on the Sand Hill River. The in channel portion of the project was essentially completed in 2017. Initial fish surveys have already documented restored fish passage upstream of the modified dams. Both this grant and an ML 2015 grant to the Sand Hill River Watershed District contributed to the local share of this project and were matched 3:1 by federal funds. Credits for habitat benefits were divided up between the two grants based on overall contribution to the project. - Knutson Dam fish passage- Construction of the project was finished in the spring of 2016. The dam, at the outlet of Cass Lake in Beltrami County, was modified into a rapids to allow fish movement upstream from the Mississippi River. This will allow free movement between habitats in the lakes upstream and the river downstream, facilitating access for fish to key habitats such those used for spawning. The project was done in conjunction with the US Forest Service, who owns the dam. The initial LSOHC grant spurred multiple other parties to invest in the project, totaling $660,000 in match. Partners included the US Forest Service, Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, US Fish and Wildlife Service, Upper Mississippi Headwater Restoration Fund, Chippewa Stewardship Fund, Otter Tail Wetland Mitigation, and Otter Tail Transmission Line Tribal Gathering Mitigation. - Long Lake fish passage- We worked with Itasca County to modify a small dam at the outlet to Long Lake into a rapids in January, 2016 in order to facilitate fish passage. - Straight River habitat enhancement: Several DNR divisions teamed up to improve aquatic habitat by installing 32 new tree structures on the Straight River, one of Minnesota’s premier trophy brown trout streams. DNR fisheries staff selected three sections of the river to place the structures to address an over-wide stream channel with little cover for fish. Due to the inaccessibility of this reach of stream for heavy equipment due to surrounding wetlands, a helicopter was used to lower about 150 trees into position to create the structures. A total of 4,180 feet of stream was enhanced by this project. - South Branch Root River: This project was funded by the ML2013 and ML2014 DNR Aquatic Habitat appropriation. A 450 foot reach of the river was experiencing severe erosion, with the streambank losing over 10 feet per year. A riffle was constructed at the upstream end of the reach to direct flow, and a bankfull bench was constructed along the eroding bank using toe wood to enhance stability and fish habitat. The bench was vegetated with a native seed mix and willow live stakes. Construction was completed in August of 2018. - AMA Enhancement: This appropriation includes funding for personnel tasked with assessing habitat needs on Aquatic Management Areas (AMAs), writing management guidance documents that outline projects, and overseeing project implementation. AMA Specialists completed nine new site assessments, bringing the total number of AMAs assessed since June 2014 to 138. To date, 109 Management Guidance Documents have been completed. An additional 29 Management Guidance Documents are in various stages of review. Staff also planned or oversaw enhancement project on 48 AMAs. These accomplished acres are reflected in the status updates for individual OHF appropriations that funded contracts and/or materials for the project.

These positions aided in public outreach, survey work, design, permitting, contracting, and coordination with project partners on these complex projects.  Five projects were completed during this appropriation. The coordinator was also responsible for moving 7 additional projects forward and assessing 10 potential projects for future LSOHC proposals.  The coordinator has collected monitoring data on two completed LSOHC projects.   The coordinator (with interns) collected culvert data on 4 watersheds, identified barriers and determined which barriers are among the highest priority.

Twenty acres of habitat were restored on two streams and three acres of stream habitat were enhanced with this appropriation. All of these projects will provide excellent opportunities to educate the public on the importance of lake and stream habitat restoration and enhancement.","Stream projects were prioritized based on the DNR's Stream habitat Priority List, where projects are ranked based on a number of criteria surrounding support and outcomes. This appropriation funded seven stream projects, several of which involved external partners. Individual project details are outlined below.Hallock Riffles - Construction of the project was finished in fall 2021. A total of 2 riffles were installed to stabilize the grade near the Hallock Dam project. Forty-three fish species will benefit from riffle habitat that is important for spawning. Funding was split between M16 and ML17. Mound Creek Dam Removal and Channel Restoration - Construction of the project was completed at the end of 2019. After a dam failure in 2016, the Mound Creek dam was removed and replaced with a rock arch rapids. Additionally, the reservoir was restored to a naturally flowing river with a connected floodplain. This is critical habitat for Topeka Shiner and 27 other species of other fish that will benefit not only from passage upstream but from 4200 feet of restored high quality river channel. This project is within the Blue Mounds State Park and is an easily visible example for the public to see the type of restoration efforts going on in the State of Minnesota. Fredenberg Culverts - Construction finished in spring 2022. Two undersized culverts were identified on Fredenberg Creek as barriers to fish passage. The culverts were replaced to improve fish passage and restore more natural sediment transport. Twenty species of fish have benefited from added passage in the watershed by accessing additional, high-quality habitat. Project partners included the Cook County SWCD. Matching funds for the project included $100,000 from Save our Great Lakes grant and $20,000 from Cliffs Foundation.Hockamin Culverts - Construction on the first Hockamin culvert was completed in 2022; construction on the second culvert is anticipated for 2023. Two undersized culverts were identified as fish barriers on Hockamin Creek. Improving fish passage at the culverts will open up 23 miles of stream for 26 species of fish including brook trout. This project was done in partnership with the Lake County SWCD. Matching funds were provided by Save Our Great Lakes $337,318 and Crystal Bay Township $10,000 Carlos Dam Modification - The Lake Carlos project finished construction at the end of 2020. After the dam failed multiple times, a rock arch rapids design was implemented to allow fish passage at the site. There are 38 species of fish that benefit from passage at this site. This project reconnected about 3 miles of stream and 4407 acres of lake habitat. The Glacial Lake Partnership contributed $30,000 towards the project. Funding was split between ML16 and ML17. Fish Creek Culvert - This project was completed in fall 2019. DNR worked with Todd County Highway Department to replace a culvert that acted as a fish barrier on CR 47. Crane Lake Culvert - This project was completed in fall 2018.

We frequently have youth visiting the club to see what it is about and we expect through continued recruitment to reach our goal. The intergenerational interactions between the members and their adult mentors has strengthened the experience for everyone associated as demonstrated by their regular attendance and continued expansion of youth experiences.4. The SSEP program was successful in engaging the required 300 youth from our region in participating in a rigorous student experiment process. The number of design experiments required by the external partner were achieved and the review process is currently underway to determine which experiments will be sent to the next level of review.

Over the years, the underlying ties had disintegrated and the track was buckling in front of the engine, jeopardizing its stability. This presented a safety hazard for visitors and staff. At some point, the locomotive could have potentially tip over, causing a dangerous situation and destruction of the artifact.

Each intern brought in energy and interests that made their internships unique to the individual. We had two women and four men ages 18 - 57. This was most enjoyable as far as grant work; wathing as they gained a higher level of knowing. We created public awaraeness of language throught print and radio with the 12 month of the monthly Ojibwe Language puzzle page for the local Tribal newspaper, the DeBahJiMon, which was done completely by the interns. All but two interns have completed their audios and the interns who did complete these audios have been airing regularly on our tribal radio station, KOJB 90.1 FM The Eagle. Poster for the bathrooms on campus and in community are complete. In January and February we held Traditional Stroytelling where well over 120 community members gathered in the Drum Room on campus to join us. Fluent speaking elders from Sugar Point, Ponemah, and White Earth shared Aadizookaanan (winter legends) and Debaajimowinan (stories from thier lives). People from all walks of life, babies to grandmothers were in attendance. This multi-generational setting is the tradtional learning and teaching setting that the Anishinaabe people have always functioned by. The gift and art of storytelling is one that the Anishinaabe peoplel have forever lived by. The stories teach us how to live, love, and help us view the world in an Anishinaabe way. We hosted the first annual Epiitendaagwak Ojibwemowin Quiz Bowl here at LLTC on Saturday, April 11, 2015. In attendance were; Bemidji State, University of Minnesota, Red Lake Nation College, and our college. We had a total of 7 teams, with four for Division I and three for Division II. We hired two fluent speaking grandmothers and a learned speaker to creat eh questions containing frequent vocabulary words. In addition to the quiz bowl, we had a very successful powwow that this grant sponsored. We hired 2 fluent speakers and a near fluent speaker to be our spiritual advisor, arena director, and master of ceremony so there was quite a lot of language being spoken at our powwow.

Without timely intervention, the use of Dakota and Ojibwe languages – like indigenous languages throughout the globe – will decline to a point beyond recovery. These languages embody irreplaceable worldviews. They express, reflect, and maintain communal connections and ways of understanding the world. Deeper than the disuse of vocabulary or grammar, the loss of an indigenous language is destruction of a complex system for ordering the relationships among people and the natural world, for solving social problems, and connecting people to something beyond themselves.  As languages are inherently inseparable from individual and communal identity, they are difficult to eradicate from a culture.  Severing the people from their lands, denying them sustenance, and forcing them into English-only boarding schools was not successful in destroying these languages.  For more than 100 years such assaults were aggressively pursued as the official policy of federal and state governments in the United States in attempt to eradicate the languages, and yet the languages of the Dakota and Ojibwe people survive.  The survival of Dakota and Ojibwe languages, however, remains threatened. Indigenous language revitalization now requires heroic measures in order for these languages to not only survive, but to thrive and to live on for future generations   ","LLTC intends to use this money to provide and expand opportunities for students interested in learning Ojibwe language through internships that involve tutoring, leading study groups, acting as language instructor’s teacher’s aide, creating public awareness and other activities that preserve Ojibwe language. An overarching goal is to create and execute an internship program for (4) students per academic year.

To support the actors with vibrant stage lighting to enhancing their performance experience. To heighten the audience experience with lighting that permits a more creative lighting design. An audience survey form will be included with the playbill measuring opinions on the new lighting and its effectiveness in adding to the mood and clarity of the production. A survey will be conducted with the actors measuring their satisfaction level performing under the LED system. An energy usage audit of the new lighting system will be conducted and compared against the energy usage of the old incandescent system. There will be a discussion group made up of the lighting master, lighting crew and project director at the conclusion of the run of each of the shows. The discussion will evaluate ease or difficulty of the system setup, how the system affected safety, performance of the system and what changes need to be addressed for the next show. The director will be asked to write a summation following the close of the show addressing his/her experience of the LED lighting systems effectiveness in supporting the creativity of their lighting design.","A random survey was conducted of audience members. There was limited response, however, those that completed the survey were very positive. On the questions of the lighting adding to the mood and themes of the work, enhancing the productions clarity and working with other design elements scored 5 on a scale of 1 - 5 as strongly agreeing. The question of the new LED lighting adding to the overall enjoyment as compared to the lighting of previous productions was 5+ on the scale of 1 - 5. Comments included appreciation of the seamless scene transition and the more comfortable temperature of the space. On the actor survey, the question of the new lighting offering less of a distraction scored an average of 3.5 on the 1 - 5 scale. On the comment section there was some issue of the intense white lighting from a couple of actors in the first production. There was a learning curve on the color wheel and intensity settings. On the questions of the lighting elevating the actor-audience relationship, supporting the style of the work and making the production a memorable experience the score was a 5. General comments included the smooth transition of colors and mood with the new lighting system. The three directors involved were thrilled with the versatility of the new system. Each had occasion to utilize the wireless control system to place special lighting effects in areas that would have previously been either difficult or not even possible. They were able to experiment with colors without being limited by gels which may have had on hand or had to purchase. They all look forward to the opportunity to explore what more the system has to offer. The tech crew was the most enthused. The set-up time is a fraction of the old incandescent system. They no longer have to search for circuits to run power for the previous large power draw. They no longer need to run power cords throughout the building. When a director asked for a fixture to be relocated it could be done without a huge time commitment.

We as the PPAC, believe that the continuous advancement of our lighting and sound technology, the upkeep of said technology, and the advancement of our current ticketing procedure not only carries out our mission locally, but fulfills a goal of Minnesota arts funding. This further advancement of equipment and technology supports not only our venue, but the two resident arts organizations who rent our facility on a regular basis, and the artists we contract with in creating, producing and presenting high quality arts activities. Our goal is to continue to provide a venue in which our community can experience the arts, as well as have easy, instant accessibility. The new ticketing system we are investing in (Vendini), allows us to document and evaluate through a box office agent software. Through this software, we are able to use marketing tools to connect with our patrons. Not only to market and advertise our presentations, but to cultivate and receive immediate feedback on what we are providing, and how we are doing. We continuously provide surveys to our patrons, because we are interested in their experience. To measure the goals of the new lighting technology, we will ask our technical staff to provide us interpersonal reflection on the effectiveness of the technology. For the new ticketing system, we will provide our patrons a survey detailing in how they purchased tickets, ease of access to the tickets, and if their purchasing of tickets was a positive experience.","The surveys we collected at the end of two events were overwhelmingly positive, especially when it came to us asking if purchasing tickets was a positive experience.

Expected changes from the addition of the lighting equipment: A. Improved reliability of equipment from upgrades and new board. B. Improved ease of use for volunteers doing lighting. C. Improved visibility and artistic control between and within scenes on stage. D. Increased support for added lighting upgrades. The Wilder Pageant will look at the four goal areas using surveys and focus group responses determine the impact of the updated and new lighting equipment. Written record of any light or board malfunction will be kept by the Light Board Operator for comparison. An online audience survey (Survey Monkey) will include a question about lighting, sound and other activities related to the production. This information will be shared with the committee at their September Board meeting. This will be a discussion topic at the September 2018 Wilder Pageant Board meeting. As a focus group, the considerations of cost, ease of use, reliability and future expenditures will point towards satisfaction and determination if these lighting upgrades have made for a higher quality production.","GOAL: SUPPORTING ARTISTS AND ARTS ORGANIZATIONS IN CREATING, PRODUCING AND PRESENTING HIGH-QUALITY ARTS ACTIVITIES. CRITERIA A. IMPROVED RELIABILITY OF EQUIPMENT FROM UPGRADES AND NEW BOARD – PARTIAL 85% In 2017, there were seven instruments needing lights replaced and two times that lights could not be shut off do to overheating in spite of fans. The light board was sent in once for repair due to erasing the cues. In 2018 there were four instruments needing lights replaced. The new ETC Console malfunctioned and was sent in for repair before the show started. No cues were lost, and a replacement arrived in one day. One of the 20-year-old Teatronics 6 by 6KW dimmers was still problematic with 2 of the 6 channels not functioning EVEN after repair. This may be due to damage in shipping but also there were errors in repair that were not a result of shipping damage. We have received parts and are ready to repair them when we are able to install the parts onsite for testing in the Spring. The ETC Source Four instruments and retrofit LED upgrades and Element 60 Console were great. Teatronics 6 by 6KW “makeover” by company was less than satisfactory. Considering the NASTY weather, this was a good season. CRITERIA B. IMPROVED EASE OF USE FOR VOLUNTEERS DOING LIGHTING. - YES 95% Definitely! The new and retrofitted instruments were easier to adjust and produced a good quality of even light output. Learning the new lightboard was a good challenge but using the online tutorials and trial and error produced good results. Cues were easy to adjust and sequence. USD storage provided a good backup in case of malfunctions that did occur the week before the show. Service from ETC was exemplary with an overnight shipment of a loaner board. We are aware of at least one ETC board at a nearby school that could have been borrowed, if needed. We also did have the Leprecon LP 1500 as an immediate backup with a set of cues that would be close to those in the Element 60 but not as flexible. Most of the effort at learning the system and inputting, adjusting and learning the cues was done by Steve Hanson who used the online tutorials and trial and error to set up the show. The Element 60 console is an extremely powerful and complete system. He feels he has just scratched the surface and there is much more to learn regarding setup and control. SCALE 1. [Old 4.3 to New 6 of 7] Ease of inputting and changing cues in the Light board. Board Operator Steve Hanson said that this was ten times easier than using the old Leprecon board, especially when adjusting or updating and adding cues. SCALE 2. [Old 4.67 to New 5.67 of 7] Simplicity of moving between scenes and changing lights during show. Again, the sequencer when set up automatically preps for the next light cue so that following the show and script is much simpler. SCALE 3. [Old 3.67 to New 6.33 of 7] Ability to correct or adjust cues on the fly. There is a manual override that allows adjustment by individual light or set of lights. CRITERIA C. IMPROVED VISIBILITY AND ARTISTIC CONTROL BETWEEN AND WITHIN SCENES ON STAGE. – YES 90% SCALE 1. [Old 3.33 to New 6.33 of 7] Light intensity compared to current instruments. The retrofitted Source Four instruments were brighter with whiter light using less power. They were adjusted in the console to balance with the tungsten fixtures. SCALE 2.[Old 5 to New 6 of 7] Reliability of instruments in varied weather conditions. YES. No fails using our “Weather Shield”. SCALE 3. [Old 3.17 to New 6 of 7] Evenness of light coverage of the area. There was good blending though we had to switch the use of some of the LED fixtures to compensate for the lack of two channels in the old Teatronics dimmers. CRITERIA D. Increased support for added lighting upgrades. YES The quality and reliability of the LED lights was impressive and opened the door to further purchases. Also, the repair and subsequent malfunction of the 20 plus year old Teatronics 6 by 6 KW dimmers points us towards the n","Achieved most of the proposed outcomes",2635,"Other,local or private",12435,,"Errol Steffen, Kerry Knakmuhs, Wendy Rogotzke, Julie Danielowski, Lowell Highby, Darul Hrdlicka, Ron Kelsey, Sam Malmberg, Ken Parker, Amy Ankrum",,"Wilder Pageant","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Equipment/Facilities Improvement",,"Wilder Pageant Light Upgrand.",2018-03-15,2019-06-28,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,William,Richards,"Wilder Pageant","PO Box 313","Walnut Grove",MN,56180,"(507) 828-6616 ",daprince2898@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Lyon, Cottonwood, Murray, Redwood, Nobles",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/equipmentfacilities-improvement-15,"Mark Brodin: theatre; Maureen Keimig: theatre; Brett Lehman: music, SMAC Board; Janet Olney: visual art, arts admin, SMAC Board; Erica Volkir: theatre, dance, arts admin, SMAC Board; Mark Wilmes: theatre, music.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Marilee Strom: musician, former art teacher, business owner; Kathy Fransen: musician, theatre, Rhythm of the River coordinator; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Pam Blake: retired art educator, visual artist, Tyler Arts Council, Lincoln County Art Fair, Southwest Minnesota Weaver's Guild; Michele Knife Sterner: theatre actor, SMSU Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Tom Wirt: artist, owner Clay Coyote Gallery, Hutchinson Center for the Arts, past member Hutchinson Public Arts Commission; 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; Cindy Reverts: visual artist, Rock County Fine Arts Association treasurer, Council for Arts in Humanities in Rock County; Brett Lehman: Worthington International Festival, 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

The school has a long history of providing quality silver classes. It is imperative that the quality of the equipment for use by students matches the quality of the classes provided by the instructors. Accessing silver classes privately is expensive. Milan Village Arts School creates an affordable and accessible environment for the study of the silver arts that is not readily available by students in our region. Measurable Outcomes--Classes: Most silver classes fill to capacity. The measurable outcome would include feedback from instructors and students. Milan Village Arts School is also hoping to develop new silver classes and introduce new instructors. Our ability to do this depends on the quality of the equipment at hand. Student and instructor feedback, the growth of classes on offer and overall student numbers are measurable outcomes. Silver Studio: The development of the Silver Studio is an ongoing program. Participants are attracted by the quality and scope of the equipment available. The Silver Studio was founded to give students the opportunity to develop the skills learnt in class while accessing financially prohibitive equipment. Some students will go on to develop their own studio. Many do not wish to make that investment and are content to attend studio sessions to make jewelry. Studio attendee feedback and attendance numbers are also a measurable outcome. The school has been steadily building both the number of classes on offer and the student capacity of each class. The school keeps a record of past classes and the attending students on its database. It is quite easy to compile data for measuring the success of the program. The school also sends out an email feedback form on a regular basis (See below). The feedback is compiled and forwarded to both the board and the instructor. Comments from the form have proven valuable in the past and have aided the school in making decisions that enhance both the quality of the classes and the experience of the students. 1. Did you enjoy the class? Why or why not? 2. Do you feel that the time allocated to the class was sufficient? 3. Do you think the instructor was well prepared and gave clear explanations? Why or why not? 4. How do you think the class could be improved? What could the instructor do differently? 5. Were you happy with the service the Milan Village Arts School provided? 6.

",,"Projects supported by LSOHC surfaced many innovative strategies for engaging citizens that have either historically been considered “disengaged” with traditional AIS prevention messaging (wakeboarders), are potentially “influencers” (teenagers that are both future recreationalists, and also highly effective at bugging their parents to engage in best AIS prevention practices), and users that recognize and value AIS prevention messages but have been too busy or cognizant of counter-veiling economic pressures (resort owners and tourism boosters). In the first two examples, we have no doubt that the videos produced by the Mississippi Headwaters Board to reach wakeboarders or the “Wipe Out Invasive Species” toilet paper (developed using private funds) which was part of the CROW programming were clever, reached new audiences, and changed knowledge, even if changes in behavior are difficult to document.  In contrast, the partnership on Lake Vermillion, Cass and Itasca Counties linked education (to resort owners and their guests) with direct action (sponsoring resort staff to help with inspections, etc.) and not only changed knowledge and behavior, but also forged lasting relationships between constituencies that have not always seen common interest.  The two “CD3” projects (hosted by Wildlife Forever) were somewhere between these examples – they explored innovative ideas (use of geo-fencing to deliver location specific information on fishing conditions and AIS risk or best practices; Wi-Fi stations to support videos at points of access or decontamination) and identified barriers. The self-contained boat cleaning stations now reflect designs most likely to be used, most resistant to vandalism and damage, and at a cost that local units of government and/or private resorts could consider deploying them without future state support.  Aitkin Soil and Water Conservation District addressed a recent and unpopular caveat of Minnesota law requiring the dumping of bait and prohibition on the transport of water on exit from a lake. They incentivized bait shops and fishermen by providing clean water in bags to save bait. In Cass County, AIS inspectors received “enhanced training” to equip them with knowledge and context for why inspections and decontamination are required, and in de-escalation techniques to manage conflicts with public access users. In addition to improving the quality of interactions inspectors had with access users, the County also found that they retained veteran, skilled inspectors that received enhanced training at a much greater rate, saving time and money. Five projects involved direct treatment of known aquatic invasive species (as a strategy to prevent spread to other waters), and each contributed significantly to greater knowledge and should inform future work or investments in this type of approach.  The Marine-Carnelian Watershed District has struggled with cost, ecological impact, and efficacy of treating Eurasian watermilfoil. Their pilot project (developed in close coordination with DNR Fisheries staff) resulted in several years of data that suggest that they have identified that split application of aquatic herbicide is highly effective at reducing EWM reproduction or spread and has fewer non-target impacts.  Two other treatment examples (of invasive cattails in Voyageurs National Park and Starry Stonewort in Lake Koronis) were pilot efforts to control species not previously successfully managed in the upper Midwest. The Koronis effort (as the first confirmed location of Starry Stonewort in Minnesota) has resulted in refined treatment of this invasive filamentous algae (even more important now that it has spread to over a dozen additional lakes within our state). Like the Vermillion/Cass/Itasca project, the Voyageurs project helped create or deepen relationships (with an adjacent Tribal nation).  The fourth effort of treatment was intense mechanical treatment at public landings in Carver County (in lakes with known infestations of invasive species) with the goal of reducing export of viable AIS. This program provided “inconclusive results” -- reducing vegetation near public accesses did not seem to impact the amount of vegetation (whether native or invasive) on boats exiting the lake.  An effort by the Lake County Soil and Water Conservation District to trap rusty crawfish in areas immediately adjacent to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness proved less successful as weather conditions, existing crawfish populations, and staff availability hindered ability to trap sufficient crustaceans to impact overall populations. Their crawfish boils, however, were very popular and an excellent educational vehicle. Efforts to improve the convenience or ease, cost, or efficacy of inspection and decontamination programs were the most difficult to assess. The Carver County effort to “tag” clean boats was intended to expedite re-entry, but DNR staff quickly expressed concerns about the quality of inspections and requested suspension of the effort.  Kandiyohi County sought to improve the speed and convenience of inspection by allowing for “reservations” (similar to a restaurant) so that recreationalists could be “in and out” quickly. Although this idea continues to hold appeal, limited marketing of the service, greater cost than anticipated, and turnover of paid county staff and of the County Board resulted in early termination without ever fully testing the concept.  At Lake Vermillion an effort was made to improve the accuracy of boat traffic prediction as a strategy to most cost-effectively allocate AIS inspection resources, but a primary conclusion was that boat traffic patterns vary so much (based on multiple variables) that a single algorithm or model is of limited value. Wright County attempted to explore the benefits and concerns associated with the first-in-Minnesota mandatory inspection program (similar to those in many western states), but found that the project experienced both regulatory barriers (particularly to scale the project so that is was cost-effective) and political opposition created a climate where the project proponents felt the idea was never given an opportunity to succeed. The Initiative Foundation recognized this strategy would generate controversy but hoped it would identify conditions in which it could be successful, even if modifications were required over time. The Citizens League’s Civic Governance Project’s project to increase coordination and collaboration between state/local governments and stakeholder groups revealed that a focus on Civic Leadership Development, while slow, is more sustainable than a simple civic engagement strategy. An organizing approach to water quality improvements shows some promise.   ",2014-07-01,2020-08-13,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Don,Hickman,"Initiative Foundation","405 1st Street SE ","Little Falls",MN,56345,"(320) 632-9255",dhickman@ifound.org,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,,"Forest Prairie Transition, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Northern Forest, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/evaluate-effectiveness-ais-prevention-strategies,,,,

State of Minnesota reports indicate this region could see 64% population growth by 2030. Protecting key parcels will help sustain both recreational and sport fisheries in North Central Minnesota. ",,"This project focused on fisheries habitat protection of “tullibee refuge lakes.” Tullibee require cold, well- oxygenated waters—a condition most common in lakes with deep water and healthy watersheds. Thirty-eight (38) of these refuge lakes are located in Hubbard, Crow Wing, Cass, and Aitkin counties. Minnesota DNR Fisheries research recommends that 75% of a lake’s watershed be in permanent protection to ensure sustained water quality. Tullibee refuge lakes near this threshold were the highest priority for protection. In addition, the DNR’s Sensitive Shoreland data were used to help identify priority lakes where conservation investments could be maximized. Landowner recruitment focused on parcels close to protected land and which had a high potential to expand upland and aquatic habitat complexes. Landowner applications were evaluated based on criteria established by the project’s technical team. To ensure the best conservation return on the state’s investment, landowner willingness to donate a portion of the easement value was a key component of the parcel evaluation. Best available data (state and county) was used to prioritize projects and maximize outcomes. The 2013 Minnesota DNR Fish Habitat Plan provided strategic guidance. NWLT’s role in the program was focused on targeted landowner recruitment, creation of an interactive online GIS- based Clean Water Critical Habitat map, facilitating the technical team, and administering the grant. MLT provided technical support and worked with landowners to secure conservation easements. Three properties were protected through conservation easements by MLT during this grant. The three are described below. Each is more thoroughly described and illustrated in the Project Summary Sheets uploaded into the final report: Star Lake (United Methodist Church) – Crow Wing County: This spectacular 383-acre property protects over 4.5 miles of shoreline on Star Lake (a lake of outstanding biological significance and tullibee refuge lake), Little Star Lake, Henry Lake, Duck Lake and a perennial stream. Uplands on the property contain high-quality Oak-Aspen Forest, a native plant community considered “vulnerable to extirpation” in Minnesota. Numerous rare wildlife, fish, and plant species have been observed on the property, including least darter, a Minnesota Species of Special Concern. Three Island Lake (Vogel-Knittle) – Cass County: This 347-acre property protects a sweeping landscape of including mesic hardwood forest, pine and hardwood forest, several types of swamp (ash, alder, and tamarack), wet meadow, and 1,214 feet of shoreline on Three Island Lake, a lake of high biological significance. These natural communities provide habitat for a variety of SGCN. Surrounded by Cass County, Chippewa National Forest, and tribal-administered lands, this property provides significant connectivity with surrounding natural lands. The property protects a mosaic of native plant communities. Cooper Lake (YMCA) – Cass County: This 39-acre property is part of a large complex of lands totaling 869 acres that are protected by permanent conservation easements held by MLT and Cass County. This property protects over 2,000 feet of natural shoreline on Cooper Lake, a lake of moderate biological significance and a tullibee refuge lake. The property features a variety of native plant communities. ",2017-07-01,2021-11-12,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Annie,Knight,"Northern Waters Land Trust","P.O.

The grant leveraged $1,119,000 through landowner donation of easement and fee value and other sources, exceeding goals by 134%. ","   ","The primary goal of this program was to ensure protection of coldwater fisheries associated with tullibee refuge lakes in north-central Minnesota. These lakes have the best biological integrity necessary for sustaining a sport fishery in the face of development and a changing climate.    Tullibee (also known as cisco) is the preferred forage fish for the production of quality walleye, northern pike, muskellunge, and lake trout. They require cold, well-oxygenated waters, conditions most common in lakes with deep water and functioning watersheds. Tullibee populations are the “canary in the coalmine” for three significant collective threats to Minnesota’s sport fishery: shoreline development, watershed health, and climate warming. As average summer temperatures have increased, tullibee declines have been observed in some lakes. Deep, cold water tullibee lakes that have high quality, well-oxygenated waters and natural, undisturbed land cover along the shorelines and within their watersheds will have the best chance to sustain tullibee populations in the face of these threats and will serve as a “refuge” for the tullibee if annual temperatures increase.    The program focused on land protection via fee title and conservation easement acquisition within the watersheds of 38 tullibee refuge lakes in Hubbard, Cass, Crow Wing, and Aitkin counties. A project team, including the MN DNR Fisheries Habitat Coordinator and county SWCDs, prioritized projects to maximize outcomes.   Through the Fisheries Habitat Protection on Strategic North Central Minnesota Lakes - Phase I grant, project partners Northern Waters Land Trust (formerly Leech Lake Area Watershed Foundation) and Minnesota Land Trust exceeded proposed goals, including: •    Protection of 765 acres of high quality habitat within priority Tullibee watersheds including both in fee (1 property of 105 acres) and via conservation easements (5 properties over 662 acres). Together, these properties protected 8.9 miles of shoreland. Project sheets summarizing each of these projects have been uploaded as part of this final report. •    Grant outcomes exceed by 151% the total acres and by 297% the total amount of shoreland proposed for protection under this grant.  •    The $2,130,000 grant leveraged $1,014,000 in easement value and $105,000 in fee value donated by landowners participating in the program, and raised through other sources. This amount exceeds that proposed by 127%. Protected Properties include: 1.    Woods Bay, Lake Roosevelt – a 105-acre fee purchase on Woods Bay in Lake Roosevelt (a tullibee refuge lake) that protects high quality habitat including intact old growth forest and the adjacent prime muskie spawning area. The property has been transferred to the MN DNR and is managed as the Roosevelt Lake State Aquatic Management Area. 2.    Whitefish Lake (Haddorff) – a 215-acre easement protecting a stunning stretch of natural habitat and 3,200 feet of shoreline along Whitefish Lake. The property also encompasses nearly all of Kutil Lake and its outflow into Whitefish Lake. 3.    Washburn Lake (Gouze) – a 23-acre easement protecting an important natural habitat corridor between Washburn Lake and Lake George. The easement protects extensive shoreland on both lakes and along Saggett Brook. Washburn Lake is a tullibee refuge lake. 4.    Leech Lake (Arnold) – a 45-acre easement protecting the southern tip of Minnesota Island in Leech Lake’s Steamboat Bay. The property contains abundant wetlands interspersed with small sandy and often forested ridges; wild rice beds are common. 5.    Borden Lake (Lavender Springs) – a 105-acre easement protecting heavily forested land with scattered wetlands at the headwaters of Black Bear Creek, a state-designated trout stream and tributary to Borden Lake (a tulibee refuge lake). 6.    Ten Mile Lake (Deer Lodge, LLC) – A 61-acre easement protecting forests and extensive shoreland wetlands adjacent to Ten Mile Lake, a tulibee refuge lake. In addition, project partners established important supporting procedures and practices that have played an essential part in sustaining the Fisheries Habitat Protection program through this and subsequent phases of funding. These included:  •    NWLT created its Clean Water, Critical Habitat program. This program was used to promote and educate landowners on the benefits of conservation easements and acquisitions, greatly facilitating the success achieved through our Phase 1 grant. •    NWLT engaged a University of Minnesota GIS graduate student through the CURA-CAP program to create priority parcel maps for all tullibee refuge lakes in Cass, Crow Wing, Hubbard, and Aitkin counties. The associated information was used to develop a mailing list used to promote the program to over 1100 landowners and to seek applicants interested in protecting their lands through conservation easements.  •    NWLT and MLT developed and launched an RFP process (modeled after a “reverse bid” approach pioneered by St. John’s University and MLT in the Avon Hills) to seek applications from interested landowners and encourage competition for limited funds.  •    Criteria for prioritizing parcels (including parcel size, shoreline length, sensitive shoreline designation, wetland area, known aquatic and wildlife habit areas, lake inlets and outlets, and adjacency to public and conservation lands) were established to evaluate prospective projects submitted by interested landowners. An interagency technical team was created to review and score applications to make final project selections. Technical team members represent staff from pertinent SWCD’s, Counties, DNR Fisheries and Wildlife, MLT, and NWLT. •    A scoresheet to assist in project selection was developed, along with associated criteria for scoring projects. GIS analyses using existing data, coupled with information stemming from field visits to potential projects, were used to score the projects. This scoring framework has evolved over time as more data has become available and the methodologies tweaked to better fit local circumstances, resulting in a more sophisticated and inclusive system. •    Outreach to landowners through a local organization has proven invaluable in building landowner recognition of the program and overall success. NWLT maintained contact with landowners—answering questions, publishing email newsletters, making site visits, and, if our program didn’t fit their needs, directing them to other conservation programs sponsored by DNR or SWCD’s.

These forests, which provide critical habitat for forest dependent birds, are under threat from invasive species like reed canary grass. Without active management these forests will continue to decline over time. Our program focused on controlling invasive species and regenerating a variety of tree and shrub species. We prepared sites for planting or natural regeneration using herbicide, disking, or mowing; planted tree seedlings, cottonwood cuttings, or direct seeded; protected trees from deer and voles; improved tree vigor and growth through selective thinning; and controlled weeds (herbicide, mowing) after planting. Our geographic scope included the Mississippi River from Hastings to the Iowa border, and the lower ends of major tributaries. Much of this area included state forest, Wildlife Management Areas, or National Wildlife and Fish Refuge lands. Our priorities were determined in cooperation with MN DNR, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and US Army Corps of Engineers. All projects were on public lands owned and managed by these agencies. Priorities were based on forest condition and threats, habitat needs, logistics, and access. Our goal was to prevent or control invasive species long enough to establish forest canopy and maintain a diverse forest structure that benefits birds and other wildlife. Our objectives were designed to utilize a variety of enhancement tools, monitor results, and apply that information to designing new projects. A description of each project is provided below. For several sites additional work will be completed with Phase 2 of our floodplain forest enhancement program. At Gores WMA, a 20-acre site north of Red Wing, we completed site preparation, planted bare root seedlings on 10 acres, and completed post planting weed control following tree planting on 10 additional acres that had been previously planted by US Army Corps of Engineers. At the Cannon River Collischan Road Willow Project, a 10-acre site near Red Wing, we treated reed canary grass and cut willow trees along strips to encourage aggressive expansion of willows to prevent reed canary grass encroachment into adjacent high quality floodplain forest. At Dukes Pond, a 22-acre site near Red Wing, we completed site preparation on 15 acres along the edge of existing high quality floodplain forest. Our intention was to plant trees the next fall on the treated area, but unusually high water prevented this from occurring. Bare root seedlings and potted trees had been purchased, so instead of planting the treated areas we planted 7 adjacent acres where DNR Forestry was planning a timber harvest. The planted trees will regenerate when the canopy opens up following harvest, and before reed canary grass can become established. At North Clear Lake, a 9-acre site north of Red Wing, bare root seedlings were planted in the understory of existing floodplain forest scheduled for harvest by DNR Forestry. The planted trees will give a head start to regeneration when the canopy opens up following harvest, and before reed canary grass can become established. At East Indian Creek Delta, a 55-acre site north of Weaver, site preparation was completed and tree and shrub seedlings were planted in an area dominated by ash trees. Shade tolerant seedlings will grow when the canopy opens up due to the death and decline of older trees. At Whitewater Delta, a 51-acre site near Weaver, buckthorn was removed and bare root seedlings and potted trees were planted in an area dominated by ash trees with pockets of reed canary grass. The seedlings will grow when the canopy opens up due to emerald ash borer impacts on the exiting trees. At Whalen Tract, a 55-acre site just north of the Iowa border, a variety of activities were completed including site preparation, tree planting, cottonwood cuttings, and post planting weed control. At Whitewater DNR, a 16-acre site approximately 5 miles upstream of the mouth of the Whitewater River, site preparation and direct seeding were completed. At Cannon River Bottoms State Forest, a 30-acre site near Red Wing, site preparation was completed and tree seedlings and potted trees were planted in open pockets of reed canary grass within existing forest scheduled for harvest. At Root River, a 93-acre site near La Crescent, a variety of activities were completed including site preparation, tree planting, cottonwood cuttings, direct seeding, and post planting weed control. At four of the above sites (Cannon River Collischan Road Willow project, Whitewater DNR, Root River, Whalen Tract) up to 8 acres within or near each site was also treated for reed canary grass and planted with different tree species and stock types. This was part of a LCCMR study evaluating reed canary grass control, and tree survival and growth. Evaluating success will take time. Because trees are slow growing, it can take a decade or longer for them to grow large enough to form a canopy, which will ultimately determine the success of these projects. Preliminary findings indicate initial survival of seedlings was variable. At some sites, post planting observations suggest low survival, however, small seedlings are difficult to locate in the forest understory. First year survival of bare root seedlings at the LCCMR study sites was 80-90%. Survival of potted trees at many sites was good, however there was some damage from deer. Other findings resulting from this grant included: post tree planting weed control and maintenance is essential for tree seedling survival; tree guards and deer repellent are effective at protecting trees from deer and voles; cottonwood cuttings were relatively easy to install and effective at establishing trees; swamp white oak were resilient, relatively fast growing, and resistant to deer browse making them a good choice for these sites; plantings on drier sites, with proper maintenance, take less time to establish than wetter sites; good natural regeneration can occur on some sites after exposing mineral soils; and back-up sites are needed to adjust to flooding situations which may prevent scheduled tree plantings. These findings have been incorporated into project management prescriptions. ",2014-07-01,2019-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tim,Schlagenhaft,"The National Audubon Society","2000 W.

This project will monitor the implementation of these forest management guidelines and BMPs on forested watersheds in MN. Additionally, this project will identify timber harvest frequency and distribution as well as significant change to forest area including conversion of forests to other land uses, large fires, and blowdown events. An evaluation of the guideline implementation rates, watershed characteristics, and the frequency and distribution of forest change will be used to identify risks to water quality as well as strategies to reduce these risks, with the goal of maintaining high quality forested watersheds in MN. Outreach programs will be developed for forest landowners, managers and loggers throughout the target watersheds aimed at mitigating these risks such as improved implementation of specific BMPs. ","Forested watersheds in MN generally produce an abundance of high quality water. Much of our forested landscape is managed as productive forest land providing timber products as well recreational opportunities and abundant wildlife. Sustainable timber harvesting in combination with application of voluntary water quality BMP's has helped to maintain water quality in Minnesota's managed forest lands. However, risks to water quality in these landscapes still remain, with rates of BMP implementation, harvesting patterns, and watershed characteristics influencing the potential for impacts to occur at any given time or place.

These documents will be necessary for the St. Paul HPC and SHPO review and approval process. 2) A project budget that will allow the GAI Board of Directors to evaluate its financial readiness and fundraising goals to be met before launching the construction phase. 3) A project manual to be used when the GAI is ready to solicit proposals from roofing contractors that includes preliminary bid documents. All of the above documents have been submitted in the subsequent MNHS Historic Properties large grant application.

A list of proposed land enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"The Goose Prairie Marsh is almost entirely contained within Goose Prairie WMA. The WMA is 490 acres and consists of approximately 318 acres of wetlands and 172 acres of upland grassland and forest. Native northern dry prairie has been identified on 23.5 acres of the WMA by MN DNR Division of Ecological and Water Resources. In addition, the Goose Prairie WMA is part of a large habitat complex in the general area. Within five miles of the Goose Prairie WMA, there are approximately 1,420 acres of WMA, 5,520 acres of WPA, and 120 acres of Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) easements. This project will protect approximately an additional 270 acres of wetland and upland habitats adjacent to the WMA. Goose Prairie WMA is rated a moderate biodiversity significance rating by the Minnesota Biological Survey meaning that the site contains occurrences of rare species and/or moderately disturbed native plant communities, and/or landscapes that have a strong potential for recovery.","A total of 490 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 0 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 490 in Enhance.",227000,"Wild Rice Watershed District",600000,,,None,"Wild Rice Watershed District","Local/Regional Government","The Goose Prairie Marsh Enhancement Project was completed to allow resource mangers the capacity to manage water levels in Goose Prairie Marsh through installation of a water control structure and a new outlet channel from the marsh to the control structure. The primary purpose of the project was to improve habitat conditions within the shallow lake and the associated upland habitats within and adjacent to the existing WMA. Secondary benefits included additional protections of lands adjacent to the WMA, improved water quality, and spring flood risk reduction downstream.","The Goose Prairie Marsh Enhancement project is located approximately 2 miles northeast of Hitterdal, MN in Goose Prairie Township, Clay County. The marsh is part of the Goose Prairie Wildlife Management Area (WMA). Clay County Ditch 18 (CD 18) was constructed through this area in about 1915. As a result, prior the project, water levels in Goose Prairie Marsh could not be managed to improve wildlife habitat using the lake's natural outlet. Since the early 1990's the lake had been at historically high levels due to above average precipitation and constricted flow through the historic outlet channel due to a buildup of sediment and cattails. These high-water levels resulted in substantially degraded habitat conditions in the marsh. The Goose Prairie Marsh Enhancement project consisted of three primary components: installation of a water control structure, realignment of the outlet channel from the marsh to the water control structure, and land acquisition adjacent to the existing WMA. Each are described in more detail in the following sections. 1) Water control structure - The water control structure was constructed of reinforced concrete with six, 5-foot stoplog bays to allow water level manipulation between from 1203.6 and 1208.5 feet (NAVD 88). The water control structure is located near the center of Section 22, T141, R44W adjacent to 115th Avenue North. A reinforced concrete outlet pipe was installed to convey water leaving the structure under the road. 2) Realignment of the existing outlet channel - The project constructed a new channel between the Goose Prairie Marsh and the water control structure. The new channel effectively conveys water from the marsh to the new outlet and will avoids future wetland impacts and habitat loss associated with cleaning out the previous channel (CD18).",,2017-07-01,2023-07-31,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tara,Jensen,"Wild Rice Watershed District","11 5th Ave E ",Ada,MN,56510,"(218) 784-5501",tara@wildricewatershed.org,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Clay,"Prairie Region",,https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/goose-prairie,,,,

Up to $15,000 to Dakota County is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. Lands acquired or lands with easements acquired with this appropriation may not be used for emergency haying and grazing in response to federal or state disaster declarations. Conservation grazing under a management plan that is already being implemented may continue. A list of proposed land acquisitions and restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Restored 696 acres, protected 14 acres in easement, enhanced 251 acres ",,480700,"Dakota County ",1190000,,,2.0,"Dakota County","Local/Regional Government","During this grant funding timeline, this project only protected one 14-acre, permanent natural area conservation easement; but was able to restore and enhance way more than the anticipated 178 acres and 157 acres, respectively, of wildlife habitat, by restoring a total of 696 acres and enhancing 251 acres prior to the funding deadline. ",,"Through the Dakota County Land Conservation Program, the County has been protecting high-quality natural areas for wildlife habitat and improved water quality, outside its regional park system, since 2003. As with many conservation acquisition efforts during the term of this grant, modifications were made to accommodate evolving circumstances. As a result, Dakota County acquired only one conservation easement that protected 14 acres of: wetlands (8.4 acres); a small portion of Chub Creek (145 feet); and 5.5 acres of cropland restored to natural vegetation. The County's voluntary program can be unpredictable. An application round is held each year to accept submittals for potential conservation easement projects. Project Prioritization Criteria are used to score and rank project applications.  Some projects move through the process to closing, and some stall-out or are withdrawn for a variety of reasons.  It's strange that only project was completed during the acquisition phase of this grant; which is why in future grants, the County extended the window of time to complete acquisitions, because sometimes it just takes more time to get to the closing. An extended acquisition timeframe will provide greater flexibility in completing projects. Regarding restoration efforts, the County successfully restored 696 acres, involving 15 parcels. The County requires not only Natural Resource Management Plans (NRMPs) for each natural area easement, but requires that landowners sign a Management Agreement (MA) that outlines restoration and maintenance activities, who is responsible for the work, and how each activity will be funded, using cost estimates from accepted contractor proposals. Restoration work involved enhancement of 251 acres of parcels that include 7 miles of shoreline. Restoration activities included: restoring agricultural land to natural vegetation; removing of invasive species, like buckthorn; establishing test areas to determine the most effective way(s) to remove invasive species; and forest and prairie seeding to re-establish or enhance native species diversity. Significant habitat restoration and enhancement occurred at Whitetail Woods-Vermillion Highlands in the central part of Dakota County. The largest, highest quality natural area within the Vermillion River Corridor is Vermillion Highlands. The 437-acre Whitetail Woods-Vermillion Highlands Habitat Project site is owned by Dakota County and is part of a larger landscape of protected lands encompassing more than 4,000 acres, including the adjacent Vermillion River WMA and AMA, and the Vermillion Highlands Research, Recreation and Wildlife Managment Area. This project restored or enhanced the following habitat types at the site: • Prairie: 117 acres restored and 37 acres enhanced • Forest:  113 acres enhanced • Wetlands: 11 acres restored and 101 acres enhanced  This site currently supports populations of Blandings turtle, eagle, sandhill crane, deer, eastern cottontail, wild fur-bearing game (fox, coyote, mink, and beaver), wild turkey, pheasant, wood duck, and other waterfowl. Restoration and enhancement activities anticipate an increase in the populations of these and many other species, which will augment populations on the adjacent WMA and AMA areas. In addition, the project anticipates more diverse populations of non-game species. Baseline populations will be monitored.

Contact","Three of the four identified short-term outcomes have been met: 1) Learn new information about the history and condition of the building. Architect Paul Ormseth conducted a thorough on-site investigation of the masonry facade, going so far as to use ropes to rappel down the exterior walls of the building. Paul used historic records to discover that the late-season construction of the building likely has contributed to the extreme mortar deterioration evident on the building, and which explains the mysterious piles of dust and debris on the third-floor window sills that have been observed for years. Paul drafted architectural plans to illustrate the existing floor plan, and developed conceptual plans for an elevator addition to improve circulation and access. 2) Study the decorative finishes and murals. Decorative finishes consultant Dan Tarnoveanu has researched the origin and symbolism behind the murals in the ceremonial Lodge room, and written a report that documents this information and identifies the artist. Dan also investigated and described other finishes in the building. Dan's on-site analysis revealed that the murals were covered over with linseed oil, which may prove challenging (and expensive) to remove. 3) Conduct community outreach. PAM helped conduct two large community meetings, which engaged Pipestone-area citizens in discussing reuse alternatives. Both meetings surpassed our expectations in terms of attendance; we estimate that 25-35 people were present at each meeting. Social media about the first meeting, on April 30, 2015, reached 520 people. June 4 posts about architect Paul Ormseth rapelling down the side of the Ferris Grand Block received 8 ""likes"" on the PCHS Facebook page, and 12 likes and 1 share on the Pipestone County Star Facebook page. Several articles were published in the Pipestone County Star about the project, which has a circulation of over 3,000. 4) Reuse study completed and distributed. While the reuse study has been completed, it has not yet been printed and distributed to stakeholders. The budget for printing and distribution ($450) has been held in reserve until the product has been reviewed and approved by MNHS staff.",,,"Available upon request.

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

Working to address these impairments, the Clearwater Soil and Water Conservation District will implement a pasture/hayland management program that benefits water quality and landowner alike.

To evaluate my plan and measure my outcomes, I will review records of my project budget and newspaper/individual reviews of my poetry and reading. I plan to record the number of people and demographics of those who attend the public reading. Also, I will organize a writing workshop, comprised of established poets and writers, to gain immediate verbal and written feedback about my manuscript: content, delivery, and impact. This workshop session will last approximately 1-2 hours in length. Lastly, I will record the number of pages/poems written and the publishing acceptance rate accrued during the grant period.","1) I took time off from work to write and revise poetry (3-5 poems per week). 2) I completed a full-length poetry manuscript for publication with Holy Cow!

Short Term Progress Indicator: A short term indicator that we will have been successful will be that we will be able to monitor an increase in the number of individuals coming to these locations to view the cultural items. (Achieved). Intermediate Term Expected Measurable Outcome: An intermediate expected impact will be that community members who do come to view these items (after the UV window film is installed) will be more comfortable in the viewing space due to the temperature controlling benefits of the UV window film. (In Progress). One thing that did happen was that when community members realized we were taking steps to protect the items with UV film several members of the community approached with the offers to display items made/held by members of their family. This was new as the current THPO had not been approached previously with such offers. Intermediate Progress Indicator: Those individuals who come to the space to view cultural items will indicate that they stay warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer when in these display areas. (Still in-progress as we are still securing funds to treat windows to the outside directly). Long Term Expected Measurable Outcome/Impact: Long term expected impacts will be that these irreplaceable cultural items will be better protected and available for generations to come due to the protection they will receive from the UV window film. In addition, Solar Energy Control indicated to the THPO that the savings from heating and cooling these display areas will be reduced due to the benefits of the UV window film and that within 5-7 years, the window film will have paid for itself with the savings from heating and cooling that will have accumulated. (In-progress as display cases are protected but we are still in the process of securing the funding to treat the windows directly which would lower heating/cooling costs) Long Term Progress Indicator: Long term indicators will be that the items will be better protected, and that any visible fading and damage will have slowed in progression.

It would have been nice to say we exceeded expectations, but the truth is that with any old building, changes happen, as you dig deeper into rehabilitation needs. The building is stable and safe for small group tours and events. This achieves one of our primary goals: the opportunity for people to visit and experience the vision the CCHS has for the farm. Both the physical building and the construction documents will be used for donor development toward the next phase of rehabilitation. The construction drawings provide the opportunity to continue work on sections of the barn as funding and time permit. Combined, the building and construction documents provide a solid measurement of achievement toward measurable outcomes. We were able to achieve a successful outcome due to the joint efforts of Hansen HomeTech, Miller Dunwiddie, the CCHS, SHPO, and Patrick Sieben. The team as a group is solid, knowledgeable, talented, and worked very well together. The CCHS is very much appreciative of the talents of the group.

Over time, however, the building underwent numerous remodels, and its historic character was hidden. This project aimed to return the building’s eastern facade to its original appearance. Plans for the restoration were developed based on old photographs of the building, as well as clues left behind on other parts of the structure. For example, while black-and-white photographs could not reveal what color the building’s windows frames ought to be, remnants of the original paint job proved that they were once a deep green. The revitalization of the building’s exterior ensures that its status on the National Register of Historic Places will be well understood by passersby, and allows the Opera House to remain an intriguing piece of the city’s changing downtown landscape.

Instream habitat and streambank stabilization was achieved by rehabilitating a 2200-foot stretch of stream utilizing Natural Channel Design methodology. This project reduced turbidity by stabilizing four slumping streambanks and creating instream habitat in two areas for adult trout spawning and two areas for 1+ juvenile rearing. Riparian plantings also occurred in this area. Riparian restoration was achieved in the West Branch tributary of the Knife River through several volunteer plantings and multiple large-scale Conservation Corps Minnesota plantings. ",,"The goal of PH II-Knife River Habitat Rehabilitation project was to improve instream habitat, stabilize slumping streambanks and restore the riparian tree canopy. Site Selection: The Lake Superior Steelhead Association (LSSA) conducted a rapid stream survey to determine the Knife River’s overall condition.  As stream impacts were identified during the survey, impaired stream reaches were photographed and mapped using a GPS unit.  The LSSA also monitored water temperatures to determine where trout survival is the highest.  Finally, biological data was collected to determine the quality of in-stream trout habitat.  This data was combined to rank and prioritize restoration areas where the worst stream impacts are restored, that reside in coolest water zones, within the best habitat corridors.  This data concluded that “first-priority reaches” were located in the upper main Knife River.  This also achieves our goal of a top-down restoration approach  Riparian planting sites were determined by site accessibility and stream assessment using procedures listed above.  Specified project riparian species were determined by the existing riparian habitat, upland or wetland conditions and exposure to sunlight. Restoration Techniques: Natural Channel Design (NCD) utilizes a science-based process to bring an unstable eroding stream reach back to a stable state.  This method surveys an impacted stream reach to collect data to compare it to several stable stream sections.  All survey work is performed using a geomorphic trained Stream Specialist.  The assessment data that is collected includes: stream width to depth ratios, floodplain elevation, erosion calculations, longitudinal profile, cross-section elevation and vegetation cover.  This assessment data is entered into a computer program called Geomorph to create plans and specifications that will redesign the impacted Knife River channel profile, dimensions and shape to mimic stable reaches within the Knife River Watershed. These plans create the basis for the construction project by depicting channel reconfiguration, placement of structures, location of streambed excavation, location and elevation of the floodplain and realignment of the channel.       The LSSA’s NCD process also features a top/down restoration approach.  This approach extends the habitat corridor downstream in three ways: •    Downstream habitats are protected because the upstream sediment load is reduced.   By stabilizing these upstream eroding banks, hundreds of tons of sediment will no longer discharge into the stream channel each year.  This discharged material will no longer fill pools and runs that are critical to rearing trout. •    Instream trout spawning success is more productive.  When trout spawn they discharge their eggs into the gravel.  When sediment discharges during high spring flood events, these eggs or newly hatched trout become covered by settling silts and suffocate larval trout.  By stabilizing these upstream banks sediment discharge is greatly reduced, which generally aids trout production. •    Newly constructed stream channels are reconnected to the floodplain.  These restoration projects reconnect the stream channel to the floodplains, which allows floodwaters to crest the bank and dissipate the current’s energy.  Floodwaters also become trapped and stored in associated floodplain wetlands.  This results in a lower velocity of floodwater and less volume of floodwater that discharges downstream.  This reduction of floodwater velocity and volume minimizes downstream erosion and habitat degradation.  Riparian Zone Planting Projects: •    The species of trees/shrubs being incorporated into the planting plan depends on the area to be planted.  Rehabilitating an abandoned beaver meadow will require species that can tolerate rather damp conditions and even periods of flooding.  The planting of higher elevations, which are not as wet and experience less flooding events, will utilize a wider array of species. •    Wet area species include: white spruce, tamarack, swamp white oak, river birch, silver maple and speckled alder. •    Higher elevation/dryer area species include: red pine, white pine, red maple, silver maple, bur oak, red oak, northern mountain ash and speckled alder. •    Shrubs/Pollinator Species That Are Utilized: viburnum, red twig dogwood, black chokeberry, snowberry, downy arrow-wood, sand bar willow. •    Several species listed above can be utilized in multiple planting locations. •    The LSSA uses locally procured stock for all of our plantings. Scope of Work: •    In stream Habitat Work Area: For PH II of the Knife River Habitat Rehabilitation Project, we restored approximately 2200 linear feet of stream on the main Knife River using the NCD processes.  Included in the area was the rehabilitation of largest slumping clay bank above Lake County Hwy 11.  This bank alone deposited tons of sediment downstream annually. •    Riparian Zone Work Area: We performed planting projects on the main stem of the Knife River and tributaries-the Main West Branch and Stanley Creek.  We planted both low areas and higher ground areas using the species mentioned above. Project Successes: •    In stream Habitat Work: Immediately following construction (and even during the project construction) trout were seen utilizing this stretch of river, ranging from young of the year to spawning adult ages.  Sediment being transported and deposited downstream or even out in Lake Superior has been lessened with the project. •    Riparian Zone Work: We planted many hundreds of trees in PH II creating a diverse riparian zone for years to come. Unique Aspects of the Project: •    Instream Habitat Work: One unique feature of our project is that we contracted with area loggers to bring in toe wood for areas where designated on the design plans.  Some groups prefer to take as much of the needed supplies from the work zone (toe wood, rocks, etc) but this increases the impact on the environment.  The LSSA tries to be as minimally intrusive on the stream and the riparian zone as possible in the project area.  All material that has to be removed for the project is 100% reincorporated back to the project area. •    Riparian Zone Work: The LSSA tried carrying in tree plugs to very remote areas in five gallon buckets.  We found that you could carry almost 50 plugs in one bucket to far removed planting sites much easier than individually potted trees.  This process worked best on areas that had recent beaver activity but the beaver had moved on and the dams had been breached.

The Minnesota Historical Society must administer these funds using established grant mechanisms, with assistance from the advisory committee created under Laws 2009, chapter 172, article 4, section 2, subdivision 4, paragraph (b), item (ii).","Available upon request. grants@mnhs.org","MHM's primary goal for the LMNA-S Project, a Phase 1 archaeological reconnaissance survey, was to determine the nature of specific anomalies?possible shipwrecks & other submerged sites - after conducting targeted sonar scanning of possible anomalies using new and improved sonar equipment - exceeded expectations and produced several positive outcomes. A major positive outcome of this project was the attainment of 8 Minnesota Archaeological Site numbers for 8 of the wrecks from the Office of the State Archaeologist (OSA). In time, the other 3 wrecks will get site numbers once they qualify for that status under OSA guidelines. The LMNA-S Project produced interesting and significant results, particularly identifying 10 new wrecks, 6 new maritime sites, 8 ?other? sites including 3 snowmobiles and 1 barrel, 2 trees, 2 big rocks, and questions about 1 known wreck are now answered. Further, as part of the research design for the LMNA-S Project, additional sonar surveys of targeted anomalies took place using new and greatly improved remote sensing equipment. The quality of the new data allowed MHM to determine the nature of 15 anomalies without conducting diving reconnaissance: A704 was identified as a tree and 14 others (A191, A214, A399, A400, A459, A470, A508, A580, A611, A673, A696, A701, A702, A703) were determined to be false targets (bottom contours or vegetation). Therefore, the final number of unknown anomalies identified during the LMNA-S Project is 43. Further, 9 of the 11 wrecks dove upon during the project were discovered using improved sonar equipment; previous sonar survey data was either ambiguous or objects were not recognized as submerged cultural resources. These wrecks and sites join dozens of other submerged cultural resources already identified in the lake. Comparing and associating these new sites with known sites increases our understanding of the historical context within which these cultural resources operated or were exploited by Minnesotans. Firstly, the Half-Decked Barge Wreck (21-HE-505) not only represents 19th Century transportation, but the commercial waterborne activities associated with bulk cargo carrying. Like the NRHP property the Wayzata Bay Wreck (21-HE-401) - an 85-foot barge owned and operated by J.J. Hill and his partners - the Half-Decked Barge Wreck probably transported cut wood and timber from the Upper Lake to Wayzata, transferring the cargo to Great Northern Railway trains headed to the Twin Cities. Beyond this association, the Half-Decked Barge Wreck is a tangible example of the skill and knowledge of Minnesota boat builders of the latter 19th Century. The heavy and well-constructed wreck was built with longevity in mind; MHM contends a probable working life of over 30 years is not unreasonable. Like the Wayzata Bay Wreck, 21-HE-505 is a rare example of her kind since work boats like barges were rarely preserved for future generations. The late 19th and early 20th Centuries saw the transition from the use of steam engines to the use of internal combustion engines to power watercraft. This change allowed for the widespread ownership of personal watercraft - gasoline launches, yachts, small craft - without the need to hire a licensed steam engineer to operate a boat?s power plant. Therefore, the survival of the gasoline launch Theta Wreck on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka greatly enhances Minnesota?s Maritime History - currently she is a one-of-a-kind nautical archaeological site in our State. MHM cannot determine - at this time - if Theta was constructed in Minnesota. However, MHM contends she was the creation of a local boat-builder such as Moore, Wise, Dyer, or Ramaley, and that her engine may have been fabricated by the Enterprise Machine Company of Minneapolis. While a few Minnesota-designed and constructed gasoline launches from the early 20th Century have survived - such as the Royal Moore-built Harriet - she is not of the same design or size as Theta. Surely Theta is a unique Minnesota nautical archaeological site but in a broader context, she is representative of wooden gasoline launches of her time that were constructed throughout the US. Her compromise stern in particular sets her apart from other Minnesota wrecks and the survival of her engine in situ is atypical in the State?s archaeological record. Lastly, the presence of Theta?s brass nameplate on both the starboard and port bow - also atypical - suggests that MHM should be able to research the complete history of the watercraft. To date, no mention of Theta has been located in the maritime historical record. The three small wooden wrecks identified during the LMNA-S Project - the Fisherman?s Friend Wreck 4 (21-HE-509) and the Wooden Motor Boat Wrecks 4 (21-HE-513) and 3 (21-HE-506) join a fleet of other wooden small craft on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka. The Fisherman?s Friend Wreck 4 is noteworthy because of its athwartships bottom planking and keel-less design, a construction method that required less skill to accomplish - but was nonetheless a sturdy design of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. Of the 18 small wooden wrecks identified on the lake bottom to date (Gideon Bay Wreck [21-HE-415], Wayzata Bay Wreck [21-HE-417], St. Louis Bay Wreck [21-HE-422], Crystal Bay Rowboat Wreck [21-HE-457], Wooden Motor Boat Wreck [Anomaly 467], Maxwell Bay Rowboat Wreck [21-HE-469], Fisherman's Friend Wreck [21-HE-485], Wooden Sloop Wreck [21-HE-486], North Arm Rowboat Wreck [21-HE-487], Flat Bottomed Rowboat Wreck [21-HE-488], Fisherman's Friend Wreck 2 [21-HE-489], Fisherman?s Friend Wreck 3 [21-HE-499], Wooden Motor Boat Wreck [21-HE-500], Hydroplane Wreck [21-HE-501], Hydroplane Wreck 2 [21-HE-502], Wooden Motor Boat Wreck 3 [21-HE-506], Fisherman?s Friend Wreck 4 [21-HE-509], Wooden Motor Boat Wreck 4 [21-HE-513]), this wreck ? along with the Fisherman's Friend Wreck (21-HE-485) and Fisherman?s Friend Wrecks 2 and 3 (21-HE-489, 21-HE-499), and the Flat-Bottomed Rowboat Wreck (21-HE-488) ? are the only small examples with athwartships bottom planking. For comparison, the Hopper Barge Wrecks (21-HE-441), two of the larger wooden wrecks in the lake, are also athwartships planked. These 2 large and sturdy work boats were constructed by master craftsman Captain John R. Johnson of Excelsior. These 7 examples of athwartships planked vessels, 2 large and 5 small, were similarly constructed. However, the skill level needed to produce them was vastly different; 4 of the small rowboats (21-HE-485, 21-HE-489, 21-HE-499, 21-HE-509) could have been constructed by a local boatworks or by an individual with minimal construction experience. The other small wreck (21-HE-488) and the Hopper Barges required more knowledge of watercraft construction and skill to produce. Further, the longitudinally-planked small boats identified during the LMNA-S Project - the Wooden Motor Boat Wrecks 4 and 3 were designed and built by skilled boatwrights - joining 12 other craft of similar construction that date from the early 1900s to the 1950s. This group of 18 small boats joins other small craft housed in museums and collections in Minnesota that MHM has and is documenting; together they form a significant historical legacy for all Minnesotans to learn from and enjoy. The 2 small metal wrecks identified during this project - the Steel Motor Boat Wreck (21-HE-510) and the Aluminum Motor Boat Wreck (21-HE-507) are the earliest examples of small metal boats on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka. With the possibility that 21-HE-510 may have been constructed by a Minneapolis boat-building company, she is an important link in the State?s metal craft production history. Further, the other 2 metal wrecks identified during the LMNA-S Project - the Crestliner Sportsman Wreck (Anomaly 722) and the Larson Game Warden Wreck (Anomaly 726) - are Minnesota-built watercraft. These 2 boats join 5 aluminum Lake Minnetonka wrecks constructed by Minnesota companies Alumacraft (Alumacraft Center Console Model R Wreck [21-HE-448], Alumacraft Model R Wreck [Anomaly 20.1], Alumacraft Model A Wreck [Anomaly 462], Lund (Lund Aluminum Fishing Boat Wreck, Anomaly 69), and Crestliner (Crestliner Admiral Wreck, Anomaly 689). All 7 small metal wrecks found on the lake bottom are different models from each other or carry different attributes from each other, supplying great variety in the nautical archaeological record. Likewise, the Wisconsin-built fiberglass Shell Lake Portager Wreck (21-HE-508) is historically significant due to her early date, rarity, and her apparent status as a short production vessel that was introduced back into the company?s line-up roughly 20 years later. Lastly, the Fiberglass Scow Sailboat Wreck (Anomaly 688) joins the Larson Fiberglass Sailboat Wreck (Anomaly 595) as the only vessels of this type yet identified on the bottom of the lake. The low freeboard of Anomaly 688 is similar to wooden scows found sailing on Lake Minnetonka, but her fiberglass construction suggests the design of a sailboard. These two aspects of Anomaly 688, a small and rather modern wreck in shallow water, raise many questions about her origins that have yet to be answered. As more Minnesota wrecks are documented, the changes in watercraft design and construction will more completely fill-out the maritime historical record. Many of the smaller craft on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka represent nearly 140 years of our relationship with historical personal watercraft. When the internal combustion engine began to replace steam-powered boats in the late 19th and early 20th Century, watercraft operation became possible for 1 person to do since a boiler operator was not longer necessary. The rapid development of the outboard motor set up the proliferation of personal watercraft, made of wood, steel, aluminum, and fiberglass. The higher speeds attained by internal combustion engines also led to changes in hull design. Other maritime sites identified during the LMNA-S Project, the Pontoon (Anomaly 737), Dock (Anomaly 736), Dock Canopy (Anomaly 721), Dock Ladder Slide (Anomaly 585a), Fishing Spot (Anomaly 680), and Drainage Infrastructure (Anomaly 719) represent part of a boat, a vessel mooring place with 2 attributes associated with it, an artificial reef for recreation, and a shoreline modification. The 3 snowmobiles - a Polaris, Rupp, and an unknown brand (Anomalies 660, 723, 738) - identified during this project join a Polaris snowmobile (Anomaly 289) recognized several years ago. MHM is confident that there are many, many more snowmobiles still sitting on the lake bottom. Miscellaneous objects such as the Shed Wall (Anomaly 708), Cable (Anomaly 718), Barrel (Anomaly 751), and possible wreck part (Anomaly 731) are among dozens of objects blown into the lake by strong storms or deposited there by the habit of disposing of unwanted objects on the ice or dumped from boats. The diversity of nautical, maritime, and underwater sites so far identified in Lake Minnetonka are tangible examples of the rich maritime history of the area. Through research, diving on wrecks and anomalies to collect pertinent data, and ensuring that the collected information is accessible by the public, MHM will continue to investigate Lake Minnetonka's submerged cultural resources into the future. As shown by the 9 new wrecks identified by MHM using new and improved sonar equipment during this project, the continued re-scanning of several sections of Lake Minnetonka is warranted. Comparison of sonar data recorded from different directions and during times of the year have revealed new sites as well as false targets that do not require reconnaissance using SCUBA. This new data allows MHM to produce smart and efficient dive plans; this will continue into the future. The results of the LMNA-S Project summarized above is connected to all the work that came before and that will come after its completion. It is clear that the types of sites that exist in Lake Minnetonka are diverse, archaeologically and historically significant, and worthy of great attention. To date, the watercraft located on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka represent nearly 1,000 years of Minnesota's maritime history and nautical archaeology. In the historic period, the known wrecks represented in the lake span over 140 years of local maritime culture. The data collected during the LMNA-1-8 Projects have been utilized to create the Lake Minnetonka Multiple Property Documentation Form, a guide that will be used to nominate Lake Minnetonka's submerged cultural resources to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). At this point, the Wayzata Bay Wreck (21-HE-401) has been successfully nominated to the NRHP by MHM. Lastly, the large and significant data produced during the Lake Minnetonka projects has and will be used for comparison purposes as MHM identifies wrecks and maritime resources on the bottom of other Minnesota lakes. To date, these bodes of water include White Bear Lake, Lake Waconia, Prior Lake, Lake Johanna, Medicine Lake, and Lake Pulaski. Additionally, MHM's vetting of volunteer divers ? choosing only ethical, responsible people who understand our Mission to locate, document, preserve, and conserve Minnesota's finite submerged cultural resources within a not-for-profit paradigm ? led to a productive and honest working environment in the field. Fundamentally, MHM conducted sound nautical and maritime archaeology, strong maritime historical research that produced trustworthy data for analysis and future use, and we chose a group of trustworthy volunteers to assist us with the fulfillment of this project's goals.",,1101,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",11097,,"Michael F.

Contact","MHM's short and intermediate term goals for this project were exceeded in every measurable way. MHM's primary goal for the Lake Minnetonka Multiple Property Documentation Form (LMMPDF) Project was to produce a detailed and useable document that will allow maritime historians and underwater/nautical archaeologists to prioritize and type submerged cultural resources identified in Lake Minnetonka. Additionally, the second goal of the LMMPDF Project was to produce a National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) From for the Wayzata Bay Wreck located on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka. MHM completed the draft versions of these documents and submitted them to National Register Archaeologist David Mather of the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for his review in early June 2015. When the review of the draft documents is complete, MHM will work with David to produce final versions of these documents that will be presented to the proper committees for approval at the State and Federal levels. MHM has gone through this process in the past, with the Andy Gibson Wreck Site NRHP nomination. The fieldwork for that nomination took place between 2008-2010, the report was completed in 2011, and the nomination was successful in 2012. MHM a proven ability to stick with this process to its conclusion, as will be the case with the LMMPDF and Wayzata Bay Wreck NRHP. The measurable outputs of this project are two versions of the LMMPDF - one for the general public that has been uploaded to the Internet Archive that contains images throughout and one to be submitted by the SHPO to the National Parks Service for review, in their required format. Other measurable outputs of this project are two versions of the Wayzata Bay Wreck NRHP - one for the general public that has been uploaded to the Internet Archive that contains images throughout and one to be submitted by the SHPO to the National Parks Service for review, in their required format. MHM's production (output) of these four documents will achieve several positive outcomes for the people of Minnesota. The amount of knowledge that will be gained by the readers of these documents, particularly when it comes to the diversity, importance, and significance of Lake Minnetonka to our shared history, will be measurable to some extent in consideration of data collected on the number of times the reports have been accessed on the internet. Further, informational discussions will take place on MHM's FaceBook page and in public venues that stress the legalities of protecting submerged cultural resources and education about the details and histories of the underwater and maritime sites identified on the bottom of Lake Minnetonka. Most of these goals and outcomes will be accomplished in the long term as MHM continues to work in Lake Minnetonka and inform the public through publications and programs, activities the organization has been participating in for the last 10 years. Lastly, the two most significant outcomes of the LMMPDF Project will be acceptance of the MPDF and NRHP by the NPS so that they become part of Minnesota's Maritime Historical and Nautical Archaeological legacy.",,,"Available upon request.

","In FY25 DNR staff will complete approximately 135 Fish Index of Biological Integrity (FIBI) surveys. FIBI surveys representatively sample entire lake fish communities, game and nongame fishes in nearshore and deep-water zones. DNR will also complete approximately 20 shoreline habitat surveys to evaluate the impact of shoreline activities on fish communities and approximately 100 coldwater, oxygenated habitat surveys to evaluate habitat availability for coldwater fishes. The survey data will be used to determine whether the lakes meet biological standards, to identify and evaluate lakes vulnerable to future impairment, and to identify lakes of exceptional biological quality. Survey data will be used in watershed assessments for about 101 lakes in three major watersheds following MPCA’s watershed schedule. Approximately six watershed stressor identification reports will be completed and submitted to MPCA for lakes designated as impaired or vulnerable to future impairment based on FIBI results. DNR will continue working with MPCA and other partners towards the implementation of new standards to protect coldwater fish habitat and exceptionally diverse and healthy fish communities. DNR will also continue work to expand the geographic scope of FIBI monitoring and assessment to include lakes in far northeastern Minnesota by increasing sampling in northeastern MN lakes and developing new models for the unique fish communities. FIBI survey data and reports, assessment results, and stressor identification reports will be updated annually on the DNR, MPCA, and Minnesota Water Research Digital Library websites, and as a criterion of lake health in the Watershed Health Assessment Framework online tool. FIBI and habitat data will be used for prioritization in Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategies and Comprehensive Watershed Plans. ",,,,,,,,,,,"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). Biological assessments are used on lakes to identify water pollution and habitat concerns based on the type and abundance of selected animals and their habitats. Certain species cannot survive without clean water and healthy habitat while other species are tolerant of degraded conditions. Species that fall into either of these categories are considered indicators of the health of a lake. An index of biological integrity (IBI) is a score that compares the types and numbers of fish, plants or other aquatic life observed in a lake to what is expected for a healthy lake. The DNR has developed fish-based IBI (FIBI) models for assessing lake condition in most Minnesota lakes. FIBI surveys sample the entire fish community, including non-game species which are often more sensitive to watershed and shoreline disturbance. In addition to FIBIs, DNR developed coldwater water quality standards for hundreds of lakes that support habitat for coldwater fishes, many of which are in decline. The FIBI and coldwater standards are used to help the MPCA assess the health of lakes and identify those lakes that may be impacted by nutrients or habitat degradation. The DNR participates in the MPCA watershed assessment process, using biological assessment data and interpretation to identify lakes as impaired or meeting standards, and to identify lakes of exceptional biological quality. We also use the biological assessment data to provide an analysis of the stressors contributing to lake impairments. ","Water pollution in lakes has traditionally been identified using water chemistry or water clarity samples, which give a brief snapshot in time for a limited number of pollutants. Biological standards are a measure of the biological community.

Certain species cannot survive without clean water and healthy habitat while other species are tolerant of degraded conditions.

An index of biological integrity (IBI) is a score that compares the types and numbers of fish, plants or other aquatic life observed in a lake to what is expected for a healthy lake.

FIBI surveys sample the entire fish community, including non-game species which are often more sensitive to watershed and shoreline disturbance. In addition to FIBIs, DNR developed coldwater water quality standards for hundreds of lakes that support habitat for coldwater fishes, many of which are in decline. The FIBI and coldwater standards are used to help the MPCA assess the health of lakes and identify those lakes that may be impacted by nutrients or habitat degradation.

Due to the secretive nature of the project and the legal status of some immigrants telling their stories, NHS did not inform the public that these interviews were taking place for fear that publicity would jeopardize the project or even the lives of those we were hoping to interview. The political climate has been too volatile toward immigrants to comfortably celebrate the small achievement NHS has had in collecting these interviews and preserving the voices of the voiceless. While we envisioned the Latinx community as benefiting from the project as we predicted our outcomes, we never considered the personal journey of growth that the contractors would take in facilitating the interviews. The contractors - who are part of the local Latinx community themselves - feel that they learned a great deal about the community. They plan to share their experiences with the public, and while they would not use names, they would share the themes that became universal in recording the stories. In addition, at least one article is being drafted on the understanding and empathy the contractors felt at being immigrants, themselves, and hearing the stories of those around them.

The goals of this residency are to: 1. Provide youth with the skills and tools to take music outside of the classroom and past the printed page. 2. Instill in young people an abiding love of music that results in lifelong engagement on many levels; playing, attending concerts, supporting the arts and teaching. 3. Increase each student’s understanding and skill in music, and provide an opportunity to perform in public. 4. Provide a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding of instrumental technique for brass instruments. 5. Provide a chance for community members to experience live brass quintet music. We will evaluate the residency in three ways: 1) in-class responses and observed engagement from my students, 2) online surveys (hosted by The Copper Street Brass Quintet) for school faculty/staff, parents, students, and community members upon the residency’s culmination and 3) attendance numbers at the evening concert.","I have never seen my band students so well behaved as they were listening to the Copper Street Brass Quintet both play and talk about music.

You could see some of them dancing around a bit to the music and answering questions as the quintet was interacting with them.

To maintain high artistic standards. To present culturally diverse and stylistically expansive programming. To showcase some of the best available national and international performers and productions. To educate and build audiences for the performing arts by reaching out to diverse constituencies. The goals of this project relate well to our mission. The project embodies cultural, stylistic and ethnic diversity, which fits the missions of reaching out to diverse constituencies and enticing new audience members through exciting, unexpected presentations. We include surveys in each event program to determine how many new audience members we have attracted, and to find out what kind of experience they had (we ask that of long-term audience members, too). We have included these in all programs for the past seven years. Questions are detailed, and help us determine which event(s) of the previous year might have spurred them to attend an event this year. Surveys also provide basic demographic information and tell us where our advertising dollars have the most effect. We will also, for the first time, employ surveys that will provide feedback about the educational activities presented by our guest artists. We will ask teachers who bring students to answer questions about the activity; we will also provide surveys to community members who participate. One thing we will try to find out is whether attitudes and ideas about an art form or performer were changed by the educational experience.","Evaluations revealed that all events were enjoyed. The surveys provided space for comments, and we got many rave reviews and praise for bringing in such a variety of performing arts over the past several years. We also learned that many in the audience had not experienced a particular art form before (Renaissance music, for example, by New York Polyphony; one-man vaudeville-type theatre by Robert Post).

",,"Minnesota has lost approximately 90% of Prairie wetlands, and many wetlands in other parts of the state, to drainage.  The prairie shallow lakes and wetland that remain are often those that were too deep to drain years ago, and they now function as the core of Minnesota’s remaining waterfowl habitat complexes.  However, these remaining wetlands now receive excessive water and nutrient runoff from a highly interconnected, drained landscape through which invasive fish have easy access.  As a result, most of our remaining wetland and shallow lake basins are turbid and degraded due to high, stable water levels in which nutrients collect, carp and other invasive fish proliferate. Natural water level fluctuations no longer occur, fish winterkill events are rare, and aquatic ecology functions stagnate.  The result is a lack of aquatic plants and invertebrates required to sustain migrating and breeding waterfowl and other wetland-dependent birds, especially those species such as diving ducks that exclusively rely on aquatic plant and invertebrate foods within wetlands and shallow lakes to survive. Nongame wildlife such as shorebirds and wading birds suffer too. As a result, ducks migrating through Minnesota on their way north in spring find sparse aquatic food resources, much to their detriment when they stop to breed further north due to the importance of nutrient reserves required for egg laying.  Those waterfowl that remain here to breed encounter poor brood-rearing habitat, as few shallow lakes and marshes here have high quality wetland habitat with abundant aquatic plants and invertebrate food resources on which young ducks rely.  These factors have contributed to a decline in Minnesota’s diverse waterfowl resources and, unfortunately, a decline in Minnesota’s rich waterfowling traditions. To remedy this situation, this grant helped fund the ongoing delivery of Ducks Unlimited's “Living Lakes Initiative” conservation program to provide bio-engineering services to assist the Minnesota DNR, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS), and private landowner partners to enhance, restore, and protect Minnesota’s shallow lakes and wetlands.  This Phase 4 program funded Ducks Unlimited bio-engineering staff that assessed, designed, and constructed water control structures and fish barriers to improve wetlands on public land.  DU biologists worked closely with Minnesota DNR Shallow Lakes Program biologists to assess wetland conditions and identify possible management solutions, and assisted DNR in garnering private landowner and public stakeholder support for project implementation, including permits and easements.  DU surveyed, designed, and constructed the infrastructure necessary to actively manage public water wetland water levels.  This grant also supported ongoing shallow lake technical assistance from DU staff and consultant biologists and engineers to assess, survey, and design future projects for implementation under future OHF appropriations for this ongoing, programmatic conservation initiative once permits and easements are acquired by DNR and FWS. Finally, this grant also paid for DU costs to administer this grant. Most wetland enhancements and restorations occurred in the Prairie Section and supported the state’s Prairie Conservation Plan, along with a couple projects in the Metro and Transition Sections too.  Water control structures will be used by agency managers to simulate natural temporary drought cycles in shallow lakes and wetlands that rejuvenate the aquatic ecological process that produce abundant aquatic plants and invertebrates for waterfowl and other wetland wildlife.  These structures last for 30 or more years and are generally used by agency staff every 5-7 years to conduct periodic temporary draw-downs that are key to enhancing and maintaining highly productive wetlands.  During draw-downs, mudflat conditions will provide critical habitat for migrating shorebirds, and shallow emergent marshes resulting from draw-downs will benefit many wading bird and tern species too. DU may also survey, design and restore smaller wetlands on public and other protected land near shallow lakes when opportunities to do so arise. Shallow lakes were selected for enhancement by DNR and FWS managers in consultation with DU field biologists, and generally enjoy strong support from the public for improvement.  Minnesota DNR held public meetings to share information on current conditions and management plans for shallow lakes designated for wildlife management purposes.  Every statewide conservation plan recognizes the need for improving and protecting Minnesota’s shallow lakes and associated wetlands for optimal wildlife habitat. The Minnesota DNR’s Duck Recovery Plan is the most specific, calling for the active management of 1,800 shallow lakes and adding 64,000 wetlands to Minnesota’s landscape.  DU’s Living Lakes Initiative supports this plan through a goal of improving 300 Minnesota shallow lakes in 10 years.  Shallow lakes and wetlands are identified as critical habitat for several “Species of Greatest Conservation Need” listed in Minnesota’s “Tomorrow’s Habitat for the Wild & Rare: An Action Plan for Minnesota Wildlife”, including lesser scaup, northern pintail, and trumpeter swan. Ducks Unlimited’s Living Lakes Initiative directly addresses Minnesota’s Statewide Conservation & Preservation Plan Habitat Recommendations #4 and #5 on pages 78 and 80, respectively, which calls for the restoration and protection of shallow lakes (page 78) and the restoration of land, wetlands, and watersheds (page 80).  Finally, the North American Waterfowl Management Plan’s Prairie Pothole Joint Venture prioritizes the restoration and management of wetlands and shallow lakes through goals and objectives for improved brood-rearing and migration habitat for ducks.  Many shallow lakes and wetlands prioritized for enhancement by DU are located within wetland habitat complexes identified by the US Fish & Wildlife Service’s Strategic Habitat Conservation model and are high priority basins for both FWS and Minnesota DNR wildlife managers.  Shallow lakes and wetlands which undergo temporary water level draw-downs will provide excellent mudflat habitat for shorebirds and excellent shallow water and emergent marsh habitat for non-game wading birds and terns as called for by national and regional shore and wading bird conservation plans, in addition to improving waterfowl habitat.  DU shallow lake and wetland enhancement work is performed in close coordination and collaborative partnership with the Minnesota DNR, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, other government agencies, and private landowners.

",,"The 12,000 acre St. Louis River Estuary, at the head of Lake Superior, is a unique Minnesota resource. It is the largest source of biological productivity to Lake Superior as well as the world?s largest freshwater shipping port. The combination of extensive wetlands, warmer waters and the connection to Lake Superior resulted in it becoming the primary source of productivity for the western Lake Superior fishery and a critical flyway for waterfowl and other migratory birds. Nearly two-thirds of the estuary?s native wetlands have been altered, eliminated or impaired as a result of historic impacts of dredging, filling and waste disposal associated with industrial activities. The St. Louis River Restoration Initiative Program targets locations for restorations that will directly benefit species of greatest conservation need, threatened/endangered species, and targeted species by improving habitat quality and extent in strategic locations to maximize benefits to populations. Completed restorations at Kingsbury Bay and Grassy Point target coastal marsh habitat which provides spawning and nursery habitat for target species such as muskellunge and walleye. Both project designs incorporated deeper habitat benefitting species like northern pike. The Interstate Island restoration project directly targeted and benefitted two threatened and endangered species by restoring and protecting nesting habitat for the Common Tern (threatened) and stopover habitat for Piping Plover (endangered). Restoring manoomin provides food and shelter for many fish and is one of the most important foods for waterfowl in North America.

MNDNR beneficially used clean sediment removed from Kingsbury Bay to remediate wood waste impairments at Grassy Point and establish open-water wetland. Legacy sawmill waste was excavated from the river, constructing an island complex to shelter the bay and support upland and littoral habitat. Project designs and specifications were completed by Barr Engineering in 2017-18. MNDNR awarded a construction contract was to Veit, Inc. in April 2019. Project construction began in June 2019 and required three seasons to complete. The project was deemed substantially complete in November 2021. MNDNR used ML2017 funds for project coordination, project design, construction, and construction oversight. The project was constructed with funds from multiple OHF appropriations and non-OHF leverage. Therefore, a portion of the total project acres will be reported with ML2017. Interstate Island: The project goal was to restore the largest Common Tern nesting colony in the Lake Superior watershed. Objectives included increasing the island's footprint and elevation to protect against flooding, enhancing the tern nesting area, and developing a long-term management plan. ML2017 funds were allocated to the Minnesota Land Trust and used to fund a contract with SEH, Inc. to develop the project design and long-term management plan. Final plans and specifications were completed in February 2020 and the long-term management plan was completed in December 2020. The project was constructed in 2020 using ML2018 funds and non-OHF leverage. Therefore, acres associated with this project will be claimed in the final report for ML2018. Manoomin: MNDNR works within a larger partnership using a 2014 plan to restore manoomin (wild rice) to the St. Louis River, where it was historically abundant. Using funds from ML2017 and ML2018 appropriations, MNDNR entered into a Joint Powers Agreement with the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa to restore manoomin in high priority bays. For reporting purposes, the 38 acres seeded using ML2017 and ML2018 appropriations will be reported proportional to funds spent, with 11 acres reported for ML2017 and 28 acres for ML2018. MNDNR continues to participate in the bi-state, multi-agency partnership restoring manoomin. Perch and Mud Lakes: Project objectives include restoring coastal marsh habitat by removing sediment and increasing the hydrologic connection between the two isolated bays and the St. Louis River. Using ML2017 and ML2018 funds, MNDNR established partnership agreements with the Army Corps of Engineers to develop designs for Perch and Mud Lakes, respectively. ML2017 funds were also allocated to MLT to manage the Perch Lake project and collect baseline data.

A 2015 WRAPs investigation has since found additional stretches of the river to be impaired for bacteria as well (507 Mayhew to Rice Creek, 548 St. Francis River to Orono Lake) A Phase I project, completed in 2017, addressed six projects within Tier 1 & Tier 2 Priority Zones in close proximity to the Elk River. This Phase II project would continue to implement BMPs such as livestock exclusion, pasture management, manure management, filter strips, and other practices within Priority Zones. It is anticipated that between 8 and 12 practices would be installed, resulting in a potential reduction of a 30% reduction from 2009 levels. Community engagement is built into this proposed project in a number of ways. A Small Farms Pasture and Manure Management Day would be held with assistance of UofM partners.

The purpose of this program is to call attention to the pillar, but also to centralize and streamline reporting on other related programs within the Maintain Existing Holdings pillar. Thus, this program captures all the information about what are known as direct and necessary administrative costs of managing the seven other programs that make up this pillar, as well as all information on the number of full time equivalent (or FTE) positions supported by the Legacy funds allocated to DNR Parks and Trails under this pillar. Direct and necessary administrative costs include a wide range of activities, such as accounting and managerial expertise; a list of administrative activities has been compiled in Minnesota Management and Budget's Guidance to Agencies on Legacy Fund Expenditure. Other costs included in this program include direct, non-administrative costs of doing the work of Maintaining Existing Holdings that do not fall directly in one of the seven related programs. This includes a range of professional staff or contractor services and materials needed to do the work.

The Minnesota Valley Trust acquired fee title to 32.4 acres for two high-priority additions to the Rapids Lake Unit, Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge. The Minnesota Land Trust and the Trust for Public Land were unable to finalize their easement and fee title acquisitions when landowners changed their minds. OHF grant funds spent were leveraged more than 110% with $1,343,128 in other funds. ",,"Friends of the Mississippi River (FMR) exceeded its acreage objectives by enhancing 90 acres at the W.H. Houlton Conservation Area (70 acres were proposed). This forest enhancement project at the confluence of the Elk and Mississippi Rivers in Sherburne County was on part of the land acquired with OHF funds by the Trust for Public Land (MBR Phases 2 and 3 / ML 2011 and 2012). A total of 90 acres were enhanced (exceeding the goal of 70 acres) through woody invasive species management, including forestry mowing, multiple herbicide treatments and native woodland grass and sedge seeding. These efforts dramatically transformed this site, which initially had such a dense sub-canopy of buckthorn that it prevented the regeneration of most other shrubs and trees. OHF funds were leveraged with $34,595 in other funds.  FMR is restoring and enhancing other parts of the Houlton Conservation Area through MBR phases 7 (restoration of 180 acre agricultural field) and MBR 8 (enhancement of 80 acres forest).     Great River Greening (GRG) exceeded its original goals by restoring and enhancing 187 acres total in Carver, Dakota, Hennepin and Ramsey Counties (159 acres were proposed). Leverage funds of $179,000 helped GRG enhance 30 acres of prairie and 157 acres, as follows:  •  Alimagnet Park - This forest enhancement project in Dakota County is complete and deliverables were met. A total of 20 acres of forest were enhanced through selective timber harvest, cutting of woody invasives, and multiple herbicide treatments on buckthorn and other invasive species. •  Carver Park Preserve - Goals were exceeded on this forest enhancement project in Carver County. A total of 90 acres of forest were enhanced (exceeding the goal by 20 acres) through woody invasive species management, including forestry mowing, herbicide applications and prescribed burning.   •  Pond Dakota Mission Park & Minnesota River Valley (City of Bloomington property) - This project along the Minnesota River in Hennepin County concluded in the spring of 2018 after crews completed a selective thinning of the forest canopy and removal of exotic tree and shrub species (buckthorn and honeysuckle).  Large material was hauled out of the valley while smaller material was piled and burned.  Over the course of the project, 22 acres were enhanced.   •  Terrace Oak Park - This forest enhancement project in Dakota County is complete and deliverables were met. A total of 19 acres of forest were enhanced through woody invasive species management, including forestry mowing and multiple herbicide treatments.   •  Trout Brook Nature Preserve - This prairie enhancement project in the Trout Brook Greenway in St. Paul was completed at the end of September 2017 and deliverables were met. 30 prairie acres were enhanced through woody invasive species removal, prairie establishment maintenance, woodland tree and shrub planting, and prairie pollinator nursery plot plantings.   The Minnesota Valley Trust (MVT) added 32.4 acres to the Rapids Lake Unit of the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refuge through two high-priority fee title acquisitions. Both parcels are adjacent to the Refuge and a DNR Wildlife Management Area that is managed by the USFWS.   These acquisitions protected significant oak savanna, remnant prairie, oak basswood forest and seasonal ephemeral wetlands from residential development. An initial BioBlitz in 2018 identified more than 200 species, including the endangered Henslow’s Sparrow, Bloodroot, Pasqueflower, Kittentail (a state threatened species), Buffalo Bean, Bergamot and Common, Whorled and Green Milkweeds. Bur Oaks with wide branching limbs are indicative of historic oak savanna.   The OHF grant of $600,000 was leveraged with (1) $679,863 in other, private funds to complete the 20.56-acre acquisition and (2) $449,345 in other, private funds to acquire the 11.83-acre parcel. Total leverage was $1,129,208.   Habitat restoration and enhancement will include removal of invasive woody species, seeding the former building sites and prescribed fire. After restoration, the property will be transferred to the USFWS and opened to the public for hunting and other wildlife-dependent recreational opportunities. The Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) and its partner, Washington County, were not successful in securing a conservation easement on property owned by the Manitou Fund at Terrapin Lake in Washington County. Discussions with the landowner took a step backward in fall 2017, prompting all parties to look for alternative ways to realize the mutual desires of ensuring long-term conservation of this important resource. In early 2018, the landowner approached MLT and Washington County with renewed interest but backed away again from the project. All of the funding through this grant to MLT was earmarked for this high-priority project. With the project not being finalized, we were unable to secure any deliverables for the grant and returned the majority of funding to the State.   The Trust for Public Land (TPL) was unable to spend most of this appropriation, as the owners of the prospective 194-acre addition to Bayport WMA unexpectedly changed their minds and signed a contract to sell the land to a developer. $20,000 in DNR Land Acquisition Costs was released to the DNR for their appraisal and administrative costs related to this project.

Ditching of the stream channel, loss of wetlands, bridge crossings and increased impervious surface have had a variety of negative effects on the ecological integrity of the creek: disrupted fluvial processes, increased runoff and pollutant loads, decreased infiltration, reduced baseflow, and fragmented and degraded in-stream and streambank habitat. As part of a larger comprehensive series of projects, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) made a strategic acquisition of land at 325 Blake Road, Hopkins MN, as part of a regional scale effort to establish to address the aforementioned surface water impairments and expand the Minnehaha Greenway - an area of restored stream, protected riparian area, community green space and vast trail network. The 325 Blake Road Stormwater Management Project is designed to manage area-wide stormwater runoff volumes from over 260 acres in a manner that addresses pollutant loading to Minnehaha Creek and downstream Lake Hiawatha, reduces peak runoff rates, and improves baseflow in an expanded and restored section of riparian greenway. The project included in this application is for construction of the final phase, the onsite treatment facility.

We adapting to challenging conditions caused by the pandemic by shifting budget from smaller projects using hand labor (which was largely unavailable for the past 3 years) to larger scale projects utilizing heavy machinery.","We enhanced habitat on 13 different stream reaches. The scope of work varied to match the site conditions, watershed characteristics, and address the specific population limiting factors. Severely degraded or unstable stream sections received comprehensive, large-scale habitat enhancements to restore stream function and in-stream trout habitat. These included intensive projects on the South Branch Whitewater River near St. Charles, West Indian Creek near Plainview, Rush Creek near Lewiston, and Keene Creek in Duluth. These projects required extensive grading and modification of stream channel patterns to create habitat-filled, stable channels and restored floodplains. Additional habitat enhancements were made on Hay Creek and Pine Creek, including restoring floodplain connectivity to increase resiliency to withstand the increasing severity and frequency of large flood events driven by climate change. The increased pool habitat created on Keene Creek is crucial to survival of native brook trout populations in northern Minnesota during critical low-water periods in late summer and winter. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted labor availability and prevented implementation of smaller scale projects around the state. However, we adapted and pivoted to other good habitat enhancement opportunities that could be completed with less DNR involvement and without crews using hand labor. Most of these opportunities were in southeast Minnesota. In southeast Minnesota, we also completed projects along approximately 4 miles of Trout Run Creek, Rush Creek, Ferguson Creek, Little Pickwick Creek, and the South Fork Root River. These project sites had very cold water temperatures and decent in-stream habitat but suffered from the negative effects of dense corridors of buckthorn, boxelder and other invasives. Here significant habitat gains were realized by removing these invasive trees and shrubs, which do a poor job holding streambanks. We removed invasive trees and shrubs and seeded corridors with grasses and forbs. This allowed native grasses and forbs, which better secure soils, to become reestablished and let beneficial sunlight reach the stream beds and boost stream productivity. By working with partners and tailoring the habitat enhancement methods to each project site we have maximized long term benefits to the wild trout populations at the lowest possible cost.",,2017-07-01,2023-09-18,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,John,Lenczewski,"Minnesota Trout Unlimited","P O Box 845 ",Chanhassen,MN,55317,,john.lenczewski@mntu.org,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Fillmore, Goodhue, St. Louis, Wabasha, Winona","Northern Forest, Southeast Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/minnesota-trout-unlimited-coldwater-fish-habitat-enhancement-and-restoration-phase-9,,,,

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

Up to $112,500 is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. Lands with easements acquired with this appropriation may not be used for emergency haying and grazing in response to federal or state disaster declarations. Conservation grazing under a management plan that is already being implemented may continue. A list of permanent conservation easements must be provided as part of the final report. ",,"Protected 303 acres (in easement) ",,2101100,"CleanWater Fund, Clean Water Fund ",2110800,,,0.85,BWSR,"State Government","The Clean Water Fund and OHF were used together to secure easements on buffer areas. Seven easements were recorded for a total of 606.5 acres. These acres represent 303.1 acres funded by OHF and 303.4 acres funded by non-OHF sources. Only the OHF acres are being reported in this final report to be consistent with the approved accomplishment plan. ",,"Minnesota's primary strategy to mitigate the loss of CRP contract acres is to target expiring contracts for enrollment into continuous CRP practices (like buffers) and permanent easements for the most beneficial practices (e.g. wetland restoration, grasslands, and buffers). This program model is a proven strategy to provide landowners with an option to keep targeted conservation on the land when economic incentives may lead to a switch to row crop production. This program established permanent buffers that provide both improved wildlife habitat and water quality. For example, a buffer of 100 feet generally serves to protect water quality, while an additional 100 feet for wildlife greatly enhances nesting opportunities for wildlife. Establishing  a minimum of 200 feet on each side of a stream for a total of 400 feet, plus the open water, creates a block of habitat for nesting birds and a critical link between other permanently protected habitats. Criteria used to evaluate and prioritize buffers funded under this phase of the program included building upon Clean Water Fund buffers, proximity to other permanently protected habitat, buffers within a designated shallow lake watershed, proximity to lands open to public hunting, plant diversity, overall size, and the type of water resource being buffered. A RIM Buffers application process for landowners was utilized for the program. The process built upon the established RIM Buffer enrollments supported by the Outdoor Heritage Fund and Clean Water Fund in the previous funding cycles. In future years, it is hoped that a broader buffer initiative (full field or all land within the floodplain of larger order streams) will create increased demand for this program as wider buffers provide better habitat. Further, buffers that are put in proximity to other grasslands also function at a higher level for grassland nesting birds and other wildlife. The $2.2 million from OHF was used for perpetual RIM easements that built upon RIM buffers funded through the Clean Water Fund allocation of $2.2 million. This creates an equal partnership of both programs to accomplish a single project with enhanced outcomes that could not otherwise be obtained with a single funding source.

Habitat enhancement methods:  Methods used on each project included one or more of the following techniques: (1) sloping back stream banks to both remove accumulated sediments eroded from uplands areas and better reconnect the stream to its floodplain; (2) removing undesirable woody vegetation (invasive box elder, buckthorn, etc.) from riparian corridors to enable removal of accumulated sediments, reduce competition with desirable plant and grass species, and allow beneficial energy inputs (sunlight) to reach the streams; (3) stabilizing eroding stream banks using vegetation and/or rock; (4) selectively installing overhead and other in-stream cover for trout; (5) installing soil erosion prevention measures; (6) mulching and seeding exposed stream banks (including with native prairie plant species where appropriate and feasible); (7) improving or maintaining stream access roads and stream crossings to reduce erosion; (8) fencing grassy riparian corridors, including in such a way as to facilitate managed grazing, in order to prevent damage from over grazing; (9) placing large logs in northern forested streams to restore cover logs removed a half century or more ago; and (10) in northern forested watersheds with little cold groundwater, planting desirable trees in riparian areas to provide shade for the stream channel, help cool the water, and provide a source of future cover logs. Agricultural area example:  Many streams in the agricultural areas of southern and central Minnesota have been negatively impacted by many decades of poor land management practices.  The projects in southeast Minnesota used the following approach to address this: Erosion has led to wider, shallower and warmer streams, as well as excessive stream side sediments which regularly erode, covering food production and trout reproduction areas.  In many cases shallow rooted invasive trees have taken over the riparian corridors, out competing native vegetation which better secures soils, and reducing energy inputs to the stream ecosystem.  To remedy this, a typical enhancement project will involve several steps.  First, invasive trees are removed from the riparian zone and steep, eroding banks are graded by machinery to remove excess sediments deposited here from upland areas.  Importantly, this reconnects the stream to its floodplain.  Since many of these agricultural watersheds still experience periodic severe flooding, select portions of the stream banks are then reinforced with indigenous rock.  In lower gradient watersheds, or watersheds where flows are more stable, little or no rock is used.  After enhancement work is completed the streams flow faster and become deeper, keeping them cooler and providing natural overhead cover through depth and the scouring of sediments deposited by decades of erosion. Second, overhead cover habitat is created.  Bank degradation and the removal of native prairie or hardwoods have dramatically decreased protective overhead cover in the riparian zone.  Two methods are used to remedy this situation:  increasing the stream’s depth, which alone provides natural cover to trout, and installing overhead cover structures in select stream banks.  Wooden structures or tree trunks are often installed into banks in hydraulically suitable locations and reinforced with rock as a way to restore or recreate the undercut banks which had existed before settlement and agricultural land use altered the more stable flows which had gradually created and maintained them.    Finally, vegetation is reestablished in the re-graded riparian corridor to further stabilize banks and act as buffer strips to improve water quality.  Depending upon the specific site conditions, landowner cooperation, and agricultural use, native prairie grasses may be planted along the stream corridors, although often mixed with fast sprouting annual grains to anchor soils the first year.  2019 flooding demonstrated that, due to the unique soils in southeast valley floors, indigenous rock often must be added at the toes of the stream banks.   Taken together, these actions directly enhance physical habitat, and typically increase overall trout abundance, population structure, the number of larger trout, and levels of successful natural reproduction.  In addition to the benefits to anglers of increased trout habitat and trout abundance, project benefits extending well downstream include reduced erosion and sedimentation, cooler water temperatures, improved water quality and numerous benefits to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife populations.

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.

This accomplishment exceeded the appropriation goal by over 200%. Fee-title acquisitions and RIM conservation easements adjacent to public land created or expanded large habitat protection complexes, including a new 232 acre WMA in Crow Wing County. The project is a partnership of the Mississippi Headwaters Board, Trust for Public Land, BWSR and 7 Headwaters county SWCD.","The Mississippi River is known as ""America's greatest river"", one of the largest in the world. It provides critical habitat for fish, wildlife and migratory waterfowl along its first 400 miles - its Headwaters that course through 8 Minnesota Counties from Itasca State Park to southern Morrison County. It also provides drinking water for St Cloud and the Twin Cities plus varied recreation opportunities for millions of people. Protecting the Headwaters' water quality and adjacent shoreland habitats through strategically placed permanent land protection is critical to maintaining fish, game, and non-game wildlife habitat as well as food and shelter for millions of migratory waterfowl annually on the Mississippi Flyway.This Project's funding has been expanded beyond the ML17 appropriation to funding through through Phase Six (ML 22) resulting in the cumulative protection to date of 6,356 acres and over 50 miles of shoreland on the Mississippi River, major tributaries, and contributing headwaters lakes ( continuing to exceed appropriation goals by over 200%).Public lands adjacent to the Mississippi River are increasingly in danger of losing habitat connectivity as private lands are under more development pressure potentially causing fragmentation of forests and critical upland and shoreland habitats. This Project's goal is creating or enlarging permanently protected upland habitat complexes to insure game and non-game wildlife have a secure place to raise their young, seek shelter and food, and move around without disturbance; the protection of water quality as a necessary fish habitat; and food and shelter for migratory waterfowl. At the same time, the Project opens up new opportunities for public recreation along the Mississippi Headwaters and within its major watershed. Fee-title acquisition with final public ownership (either the DNR or a Headwaters' county) and RIM conservation easements, held in perpetuity by BWSR, were the land protection tools used in strategic locations to create or expand permanently protected habitat corridors. (see answers to questions below for the scientific methodology used to select priority parcels for land conservation). The targeted geography for the project was the minor watershed corridor of the first 400 miles of the Mississippi River, its major tributaries, and headwaters lakes. Project partners (MHB, TPL, and BWSR) defined initial priorities for the project that guided the implementation of Phase III (ML17) and subsequent phases for the Mississippi Headwaters Habitat Corridor Project. A Technical Committee comprised of partner representatives, the DNR, and The Nature Conservancy reviewed proposed fee-title acquisitions and easements and approved those utilizing ranking criteria related to habitat quality, public access, location, size and supporting conservation. This process insures that critical habitat value was achieved with the funding appropriated.Completion of Phase III (ML17) resulted in the permanent protection of 1,674 acres and 14 miles of shoreland achieved through 7 RIM conservation easements with private landowners and four fee-title acquisitions that included one addition to a state forest, two additions to county forests, and the creation of a 232 acre DNR WMA (also utilizing ML16 funding).",,2017-07-01,2023-02-28,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tim,Terrill,"Mississippi Headwaters Board","322 Laurel St., Suite 11 ",Brainerd,MN,56401,"(218) 824-1189",timt@mississippiheadwaters.org,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Aitkin, Crow Wing","Forest Prairie Transition, Northern Forest",,https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/mississippi-headwaters-habitat-corridor-project-phase-iii,,,,

Contact:grants@mnhs.org","By the end of the grant period, the collaboration between the MHSL and Hamline archive departments had proceeded very well; the Committee had engaged actively and productively with Museology in developing the partnerships and exhibit planning; and alumni had begun to be aware of the History Center development. Artifacts and loan documents for the Preliminary Exhibit are in place through December 2021 and research access continues, with surprise discoveries shared with enthusiasm. The full committee or subgroups have had fifteen meetings with Museology, facilities, new partner prospects, Hamline representatives and the architect looking at the designated site in the MHSL building. The Committee:s steady work with Museology involved extensive engagement on the interpretive themes and script for both the Preliminary and Full exhibit planning while Museology:s outreach to potential new partners was reported to and followed up by Museology and a Committee subgroup working together. Initial Museology help with overview and thinking about the Hamline partnership was utilized by Committee members to further develop that collaboration directly with Hamline. In addition to the webpage that was being developed simultaneously, constituent groups (alumni, students, faculty and administration) were able to learn about the History Center through a well-attended and enthusiastically received program in April on the First Amendment entitled, :Freedom of Speech in an Era of Social Responsibility: The Near Injunction at Ninety.: Produced as part of a First Amendment Scholars Program, one goal was the recognition of the :emerging: History Center by highlighting the Minnesota Supreme Court:s seminal case on prior restraint and its continued relevance to :hate speech: and legal or social restraints. There was also a specific notice to alumni in June announcing the purpose and progress of the History Center development, featuring themes that bind them as the combined law school. Also alerting them to the intent to host events and add historical material to its website, the announcement encouraged the contribution of historical materials. As alumni and other constituents become more familiar with the History Center through the Preliminary Exhibit and partnership involvement, they will be surveyed for their views and engagement. With regard to the expected impact in the Intermediate Term, the cost for mounting the Preliminary Exhibit was calculated and shared equally by MHSL and Hamline University. This was an important step in working out mutual financial support for the initial development of the History Center. Similarly, the opportunity for alumni and others to share their stories is carefully integrated into the Exhibit Planning and design.",,4925,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",64926,,"Mitchell Hamline School of Law : Gregory L.

The combination agreement provided for the development of a history center to preserve each law school's rich legacy and the impact of faculty, staff, and over 19,000 alumni on Minnesota legal history. A new history center will help constituents, neighbors, and the broader Minnesota community understand Mitchell Hamline's colorful origins, community impact, and contributions to the ever-evolving world of legal education. Mitchell Hamline will take on the responsibility of lead partner; initial steps in the institutions' plan are: :The Hamline University president will invite faculty, staff, and alumni to join a history center committee and help shape the center's development, including thematic development, acquisitions, display, and preservation of materials. :Archivists at both institutions will develop a working relationship to handle artifacts and materials in compliance with collections management policy and procedures to enrich exhibits and programming. The grant will also operationalize content information collected in previous research efforts by developing an approved conceptual plan and making interpretive programs recommendations. This will be followed by planning a narrative for a preliminary exhibit and fundraising documents, including schematic drawings for the space. During this process, the History Center Committee will plan ongoing historical programming with possible topics, like the impact of faculty scholarship on Minnesota law; the law schools' renowned work in health law, dispute resolution, children and the law, and Indian law; the relationship of communities of color to the law schools; histories of unsung heroes; traditions and student life over the decades; and the law schools as parts of their neighborhoods.",2018-06-01,2019-07-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Marie,Failinger,"Mitchell Hamline School of Law","875 Summit Ave.","St. Paul",MN,55105,"(651) 695-7658",marie.failinger@mitchellhamline.edu,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Historical Society",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/mitchell-hamlinehamline-university-collaboration-permanent-mitchell-hamline-history-center,,"Visit https://www.mnhs.org/about/leadership",,No

Three additional families are in teh process of completing their applications with a astart date in January. We are licesned to serve twenty children and will continue to conduct outreach in the community, with the goal to have a full complement of 20 children by the fall of 2016. All seven (100%) of our children are exposed to Lakota on a daily basis as a living language and as part of the learning environment. The D/Lakota language teacher speaks only D/Lakota to the children throughout the day. We lost our Ojibwe speaker in February. While we do not have a fluent Ojibwe speaker in the classroom speaking only Ojibwe to the children, the children are exposed to the Ojibwe language throughout the day during presentations, circle time, stroy time, drum and visiting elders in the classroom. The symbolic level (animals, numbers, colors) continue to be taught by the Primary Guide during the day. We have been in operation less than a year and are still experimenting with the best method to measure D/Lakota and Ojibwe language acquisition for three and four year olds. The children as observed by the Lakota teacher can follow most directions/commands/requests and phrases offered by the D/Lakota language teacher. All of the phrases and commands are taught as a living language and relate to the children's work in the Montessori environment. Because of teaching languae and dculture to thte children, we are seeing tremendous growth in the children intellectually, developmentally, physically, and spiritually during the short time they have been with us.

Trees usually die as a result of infestation and an unprecedented outbreak in the west is currently decimating pine forests there. While mountain pine beetle is not presently believed to reside in Minnesota, there are risks posed by an expanding species range resulting from warming climate and the potential for accidental introduction via lumber imports from infested areas. It is estimated that Minnesota currently has about 200 million trees that would be susceptible to mountain pine beetle if it should become established here and loss of those trees would threaten wildlife habitat, water quality protection, and recreation. Researchers at the University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Department of Agriculture are using this appropriation to survey state locations for the presence of mountain pine beetle and to characterize the risk posed by the insect to Minnesota pine species.

Contact:grants@mnhs.org","This project succeeded in moving all three measureable outcomes forward, these are; (1) creation of products, (2) coordination, and (3) enduring relationships. 1.Through this project we conducted a significant original research, generating 4,100+ citations from almost 220 academic, Minnesota, and local history sources. This includes numerous previously unknown personal and family histories from Steele County families. The resulting script represents a fraction of the material we uncovered about the lives of Steele County children. In all, we completed approximately 500 pages of written material from which we have drawn our script. The remaining material will be drawn on to provide the backbone for community discussion. This will happen in both in person programming and via various media such as radio, television, and internet. We also completed the design of programming for both children and adults. During the project, one program being developed, :What do you want to be when you grow up: An Inventor!: was shared with a teacher. This program teaches about Ebenhard Gandrud, his new way to measure land and problems he faced. In one hour, students learn history, build a Gandy Wheel, measure classroom objects, and perform mathematical calculations. The teacher immediately booked the presentation and shared it with colleagues. The program was booked for seven classroom appearances within three days. We also designed two new types of family and adult programs, each with several themes. One of them, :Some Experience Required,: will be billed as an open mic roundtable. It will feature a 15 minute presentation from a community member, followed by 10 people who take tickets entitling them to three minutes of mic time. We are suggesting eight topics; one will be covered per evening. Topics include; rites of passage, extraordinary memories of daily life, and family struggles. Some examples include; prom, drivers exam, school days, and death of a (child) family member. We will encourage the public to come and get to know their neighbors better. 2.Despite significant attempts to balance the mood, period, and representation of populace in the script, we noticed several deficiencies. These stem from a lack of written/recorded primary sources on our (recorded history) silent community members, children. There have been significant changes to childhood in the last 50 years, and there is no local record of it. Among our concerns is the advent of the digital age. Will it render the few existing sources of information on childhood even more ephemeral: As such we have begun to draw up plans to continue our research over the coming years. Our hope is to gather enough data to tell the stories we need to bring balance. Specifically, the partners felt we need more modern and light-hearted stories. What may end up being most important, however, is the team effort to seek the information through community sessions, survey, and strategic online interactions. 3.This project strengthened our partnership. The follow-up work will give us focus and ensure that we continue to meet on a regular basis. At this time we plan to continue to meet bi-monthly to discuss our project, compare results, and set upcoming assignments.",,5977,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",66341,,"Kaye Fransen, Jerry Ganfield, Ryan Gillespie, Bill Hartle, Mike Jensen, Kirby Knutson, Matt Kottke, Stefan Langendam, Erik Larson, Jerry Lewison, Janet Mealey, Bob Nahlovsky, Paul Swenson, Autumn Van Ravenhorst, Diane Wilson, and Rick Gnemi",0.18,"Steele County Historical Society","Non-Profit Business/Entity","To research and write an exhibit script and programming to preserve and share changes in childhood history in Steele County.",,"Partners: Steele County Historical Society, Minnesota State School Orphanage Museum, Owatonna High School Museum, Owatonna Community Education This project aims to further the partnership between members of the Steele County History Keepers, a group formed through a 2015 cooperative project.

Lands acquired with this appropriation may not be used for emergency haying and grazing in response to federal or state disaster declarations. Conservation grazing under a management plan that is already being implemented may continue. A list of proposed land acquisitions must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan.","Protected, restored, and enhanced shallow lakes and wetlands - The amount of riparian wetland restored and protected will be measured and reported. .Expiring CRP lands are permanently protected - Several parcels along proposed corridor are currently enrolled in CRP. The amount of CRP converted to permanent protection will be reported..Water is kept on the land to reduce flood potential and degradation of aquatic habitat - Creating the 260 acre stream corridor will provide additional floodplain storage not currently present along the ditch. The amount of floodplain storage will be measured and the increase in stream habitats and stream stability will be assessed..Restored and enhanced upland habitats - The amount of riparian grassland acres restored and protected will be measured and reported. .Agriculture lands are converted to grasslands to sustain functioning prairie systems - Pre and post project amounts of agricultural lands will be measured and reported..Increased wildlife productivity - The project will restore and protect 260 acres of fish and wildlife habitat including conversion of a 5.5 mile ditch into 8-9 miles of meandering channel. Fish and wildlife use of these habitats will be monitored and reported..The enhanced stream channel and associated riparian wetland and grassland habitats will provide seasonal spawning and nursery habitat to a variety of fish species including northern pike and walleye and some of the other 30+ fish species that are found in the Lake Traverse watershed. This project presents the greatest opportunities that we are aware of in the prairie region of Minnesota at this time to convert a ditch back to a functional stream channel.  If funding for this corridor rehabilitation is not secured, the opportunity to rehabilitate this reach of the Mustinka River Corridor will be lost and it will remain a ditch. .",,,2090900,"Bois De Sioux watershed districtRed RIver Watershed Management BoardFlood Hazard Mitigation Program",2440000,,,,"Bois de Sioux Watershed District","Local/Regional Government","This habitat project presents a unique opportunity within the prairie region to convert 5.5 miles of ditched river to 8+ mile long stream channel within a 260 acre fish and wildlife habitat corridor composed of riparian wetlands and grasslands.","In the past 100 years, thousands of miles of rivers and streams in Minnesota were straightened and thousands of acres of riparian wetland and grassland habitat has been lost in the interest of improving drainage. The Mustinka River was first channelized as a state ditch in 1896 and again as an Army Corps of Engineers project in the early 1950’s. This channelization resulted in a direct conversion of about 43 miles of natural sinuous channel and floodplain corridor to about 25 miles of straightened channel without a functional riparian corridor. The Mustinka River (Judicial Ditch 14) currently provides little functional aquatic or riparian corridor habitat.  This stream corridor project will rehabilitate a 5.5 mile portion and directly provide both fish and wildlife habitat benefits in the prairie region. This stream corridor rehabilitation project will convert 5.5 miles of the upper reaches of the Mustinka River to a more functional 8 to 9 mile long meandering channel within a 300 foot wide, 260 acre floodplain corridor.  The stream rehabilitation will be based on the principles of natural channel design with an understanding of the hydrology and fluvial geomorphology at the site. The enhanced stream and associated riparian wetland habitats will provide seasonal spawning and nursery habitat to a variety of fish species including northern pike and walleye and some of the other 30+ fish species that are found in the Lake Traverse watershed.In addition to the fish habitat directly provided in the 8 to 9 mile stream channel, the associated floodplain grassland and wetland habitat elements in the restored and protected 260 acre river corridor will provide year-round wildlife habitat.  An estimated 90% of Minnesota’s prairie wetlands have been lost due to agricultural drainage and development. The land adjacent to the Mustinka river was historically wet prairie and wetlands but was converted to farmland more than 80 years ago.The Bois de Sioux Watershed District has led the development of this project through a “project team” process. This process has been a collaborative effort with members of the project team including the Traverse County Soil and Water Conservation District, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, MN DNR, MPCA, USFWS, conservation groups, and landowners. The Bois de Sioux Watershed District will continue to lead the project and the MNDNR, as a non-funded collaborator, will provide technical assistance during the structure design phase and the development of the operating plan as well as ongoing project monitoring and evaluation of the operation, outcomes, and user groups.The watershed district will be responsible for final design, engineering, and construction of the project.  Minnesota Department of Natural Resource stream habitat experts will be consulted throughout project development and implementation. If funding for this corridor rehabilitation is not secured, the opportunity to rehabilitate this reach of the Mustinka River Corridor will be lost and it will remain a ditch.",,2014-07-01,2019-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Jon,Roeschlein,"Bois de Sioux Watershed District","704 Highway 75 South ",Wheaton,MN,56296,"(320) 563-4185",bdswd@frontiernet.net,"Land Acquisition, Restoration/Enhancement","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Grant, Traverse","Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/mustinka-river-fish-and-wildlife-habitat-corridor-rehabilitation,,,,

The resulting conceptual exhibit plan has helped the NEC to move into other phases of exhibit development, as we had projected. We expected more preliminary audience engagement to be part of this project than we actually achieved. Some preliminary audience evaluation was done with NEC staff and volunteers. They were asked to comment on what information would be most interesting and valuable in an exhibit about the Refuge. Our initial target was to get formal visitor input prior to the start of this project, however, we did not find an effective way of reaching out to visitors about this future exhibit. Although no formal visitor input was gathered, NEC staff and USFWS gathered informal feedback from visitors. The preliminary input from volunteers informed the topics of interest and key questions people have about the Refuge, which in turn shaped some of the key messages and interpretive themes of the exhibit plan.

protect, restore and enhance 2,769 acres, primarily brushland, in northeastern Minnesota.  Habitat will be added to the WMA system and enhanced on existing public lands for species in greatest conservation need, outdoor recreation, and environmental benefits.","Problem and Scope:Until the 1880s, most of Minnesota was inhabited by sharp-tailed grouse where suitable open and brushland habitat, such as prairies, savannas, sedge meadows and open bogs, occurred.  This indigenous grouse was once one of Minnesota’s most abundant game birds, with over 100,000 harvested annually in the 1940’s.  Loss, degradation and fragmentation of open and brushland habitat within Minnesota due to natural succession and conversion to other land uses (cropland and tree plantations) has lead to a long term decline in this unique grouse’s population (estimated harvest of 16,800 in 2010), causing its listing as a species in greatest conservation need.  Today its remaining range in northern Minnesota, which is less than one-third of its historic range, is in jeopardy of additional fragmentation and degradation.      In east central Minnesota, research results have shown that genetic diversity of the sharp-tailed grouse population may be declining due to increasing isolation of subpopulations.  In nearby Wisconsin, genetic diversity has declined so greatly that Wisconsin DNR has translocated sharp-tailed grouse to create a genetic infusion to increase the likelihood of population persistence.  Increasing the amount of protected brushland habitat in northeastern Minnesota will be critical to the sustainability of the local sharp-tailed grouse population and gene exchange between Minnesota and Wisconsin populations.        Specific habitat that will be affected and how actions will directly restore, enhance, and/or protect them:Specific habitats to be affected will include up to 2,769 acres of openland, brushland, cropland and forest habitat.  Acquisition of the habitats and their transfer to MDNR for management as state WMA ,will protect them.  Natural habitats will include wet meadow, sedge meadow, shrub wetland, bog, grassland, and aspen and northern hardwoods forest.  They will be enhanced with prescribed burning, mowing, shearing, timber harvest, and possibly grazing, biomass harvest and occasional haying.  Other land includes hay, pasture and crop land that will be restored to open and brushland habitat through establishment of native vegetation, prescribed burning and natural succession. Multiple benefits: Multiple benefits of the above protection, enhancement and restoration actions will include increased plant and animal diversity, carbon sequestration, water retention and filtration, opportunities for biomass harvest, access to public lands for recreation, increases eco-tourism opportunities, economic benefits, and secure habitat for sharp-tailed grouse and other open and brushland species in greatest conservation need.  Wildlife species that will benefit: In addition to sharp-tailed grouse, several other species that use or depend upon open and brushland habitats are also in decline, listed as species in greatest conservation need, and will benefit from this project, including bobolinks, loggerhead shrikes, short-eared owls, yellow rails, eastern meadowlarks, American bittern, northern harrier, golden-winged warblers, Henslow’s sparrow, Le Conte’s sparrow, Nelson’s sharp-tailed sparrow, and American woodcock.  Six of these species are state listed as endangered, threatened or special concern.  Game species that will benefit include white-tailed deer, waterfowl (mallards, blue-winged teal, Canada geese, and more species during migration), wild turkey, American woodcock, common snipe, ruffed grouse, cottontail rabbit, snowshoe hare, fox, raccoon, and bobcat.  Many nongame species such as the Eastern bluebird, American kestrel, brown thrasher, gray catbird, common yellowthroat, sora rail, sedge wren, spring peeper and sandhill crane will benefit.     Urgency and opportunity:  If not acquired while the opportunities exist (i.e., willing sellers and funding opportunities), the chance to protect these priority tracts permanently from land practices incompatible as open and brushland wildlife habitat, and from fragmentation, parcelization and development may be lost.  Incompatible land uses, such as building sites, tree plantings, and uncontrolled natural succession, on a tract not only negatively impacts the tract directly, but also surrounding habitat by fragmenting the open character of the land and impacting area-sensitive wildlife species, such as sharp-tailed grouse that  are adapted to large open vistas.    How priorities were set / Parcel selection and scoring process:For consideration of protection and enhancement efforts by the partnership, open and brushland tracts must be located within or at the edge of an ECS landtype association identified as a priority open landscape through DNR’s SFRMP landscape planning process.  Further criteria to prioritize which tracts are most critical include a ranking system based upon county location, distance to active sharp-tailed grouse lek, tract size, and distance to protected brushland.  A sharp-tailed grouse habitat use model (attached) is being used to target brushland habitat for protection, restoration and enhancement.    Science-based strategic planning and evaluation: This proposal is based on science-based strategic planning and evaluation.   Biological planning, conservation design, delivery, monitoring and research, and adjustments in strategies as needed are used to maintain an adaptive approach. Sharp-tailed grouse leks (dancing grounds) are the essential hubs of subpopulations. Nesting and brooding rearing occur in suitable habitat within approximately a two-mile radius of leks.  All but one of the parcels proposed for protection have active leks either located on them or within ¾ mile away.  All tracts will be critical to sustaining nesting and brood rearing habitat for subpopulations of sharp-tailed grouse.  Research by Stanley Temple in Wisconsin suggests that suitable habitat patches of 4000 ha (roughly 10,000 acres, 15½ sq. miles, or a 2.2 mile radius circle) are needed for a sharp-tailed grouse population to survive.  A pilot study in Aitkin County was conducted in 2009 to examine habitat selection, nest success and survival of sharp-tailed grouse.  Data from this study and a two-year study currently underway will provide addition information for adaptive management. Annual spring surveys of sharp-tailed grouse leks allow for monitoring of local populations and the effect of habitat protection and enhancement and other land management activities on them.       Level of stakeholder opposition and involvement:No stakeholder opposition to proposed acquisitions has been encountered.  Proposals to protect land and manage them as public conservation lands are locally-driven by conservation groups, hunters, conservation agency staff, and willing sellers due to the multiple benefits such land protection and management can provide.  Local government has been or will be contacted and their support sought.",,2014-07-01,2019-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Ward,Julien,"Minnesota Sharp-tailed Grouse Society","644 - 107th Lane NW ","Coon Rapids",MN,55448,"((763)754) 8361-",wjulien@peoplepc.com,"Land Acquisition, Restoration/Enhancement","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Aitkin, Carlton, Kanabec, Pine, St. Louis","Northern Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/northeastern-minnesota-sharp-tailed-grouse-habitat-partnership,,,,

",,"The Council’s 25-Year Framework identifies protecting Minnesota’s remaining native prairies as a critical priority.  The Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan (Prairie Plan) describes the importance of preserving the cores/corridors/complexes where there are the greatest opportunities for the long-term conservation of these prairies.  The Northern Tallgrass Prairie National Wildlife Refuge Land Acquisition (NTP NWR) program shares these goals.  This program is a cooperative, multi-year effort of The Nature Conservancy and the US Fish and Wildlife Service to preserve and protect our remaining prairies and the surrounding habitat that buffers them.  With Outdoor Heritage Fund support, this partnership is working together to advance these goals.   This phase included the purchase of both fee title properties and permanent habitat easements.  The original targets for fee and conservation easement acquisition were 485 acres and 255 acres, respectively.  Both goals were exceeded - 520 acres of fee (107% of goal) and 367 acres of easements (144% of goal).  This program’s top criterion for selecting projects is the presence of remnant native prairie.  As noted above, 664 acres of remnant native prairie were permanently protected.  Another important goal is protecting lands in existing complexes of habitat and protected lands.  All of the acquired properties were in areas identified as a priority core/complex/corridor in the Prairie Plan.  We also target lands with high-quality habitat and the rare species this habitat supports.  Data from the Minnesota Biological Survey confirm the conservation value of the lands conserved.  553 acres were identified as having significant biodiversity, with 272 of these ranked as having high or outstanding biodiversity.  These lands support a wide-range of prairie species of concern, including Greater Prairie Chickens, Wilson's Phalaropes, Blandings's Turtles, and Regal Fritallaries.  Another highlight in this phase was the protection of several rare outcrops of Sioux Quartzite and the species that depend on these outcrops.  This program also includes a relatively small restoration/enhancement component.  The prioritization criteria favor parcels that are in good condition.    Because of the nature of parcel ownership, however, some properties included small areas of converted or degraded lands needing grassland or wetland restoration/enhancement.  This work is completed where needed to get these properties into a sustainable condition for future management.  Restoration/enhancement activity with this round of funding included 149 acres of grassland site preparation/seeding or interseeding/mowing, 6 acres of tree and/or dense vegetation removal, and 98 acres of scattered vegetation removal.  These acres are not reported as a separate outcome in the Output Tables in order to avoid any possible double-counting.   One thing to note when reviewing the attached Budget Spreadsheet.  The Request column in the Budget and Cash Leverage Table is out of date.  The figures shown are from the originally approved accomplishment plan.  It does not reflect any later amendments.  This discrepancy resulted from the shift from paper to online reporting during this phase.  See the final version of the Accomplishment Plan, approved in January, 2017, for the final figures.

These research reports will also be added to the Northfield Historical Society's general research files so that future researchers may benefit from the work that was done and follow the sources to find more information. Our intermediate outcome was that the online materials of the NHC would be interpreted within historic contexts and that we would create at least 10 primary source set drafts. During the writing phase, ten drafts were completed for the topics of Settlement & Immigration, the James-Younger Gang bank raid, Malt-O-Meal, Agriculture, Milling, Women, World War II, Architecture, Religion, and Entertainment. With the submission of the final drafts along with this final report, this benchmark will be made. Our long-term goal for this project was that these primary source sets will be shared with a wide audience once they are published as web pages. This goal will be met after the drafts are approved and reviewed, since we have web page templates ready to use on the NHC's website.

Measuring our patron's satisfaction will be evidenced in repeat attendance and if they join our membership once the program is established. Success will also be determined by the number of people served, and by our ability to meet our expenses and continue to make the necessary improvements to the facility.","Goals stated in the grant application: The funds will be used for wages for a part-time employee to carry out the tasks necessary to accomplish these 4 goals: increasing the volunteers, expanding our venue, attracting a loyal patron bases and maximizing our advertising dollars; and we have to reach these goals to stay in existence. INCREASE VOLUNTEERS: Recruit general volunteers: Laurel has secured a small pool of volunteers to sell tickets, concessions, and seat the public. Recruit major and alternate skilled production support: The skill required for these positions makes recruiting harder. Laurel is an actress, so she has contact with a wide range of people possessing these skills. Changes in our lighting technology is making the process more difficult, but this is an ongoing process. Add to our solid actor pool & create an engaging network to keep them informed of upcoming productions: Laurel is utilizing her actor network and media skills updating Facebook regularly. EXPAND THE VENUE: Expand the number of quality productions to 6 per year: We had 6 scheduled but had to drop one when we couldn’t get it cast. We also learned that with the unpredictable Minnesota weather it is financially wiser to limit our productions to summer months and scale it back. Continue to offer at least 6 concerts per year in 2018: We had 8 concerts. Expand educational and enrichment programming to 2 per year: This we did not accomplish. Expand the number of Story Show events and classic movies to 2 each: This was accomplished. Expand business support by featuring at least one style show per year: We had a production planned during the dates that the business owner requested.

Summer concerts averaged 80. Establish a membership program by 2019: We are still working on ideas for this.

At the end of each fiscal year, a determination will be made about funds to be designated to reserves. Goal three Method and Evaluation: During the grant period, collect audience surveys at least once each season; use online methods to capture input from attendees; dedicate discussion time with performing arts director, board and membership on audience development. Results of feedback will be shared with board to inform future programming.

The second goal was achieved through three unrestricted donations that were directed to operating reserves, more than exceeding the goal. Our third goal, to identify audience interests, gather feedback regarding programming, and expand the methods of communicating with audiences was intended to be achieved at one of the postponed concerts, but happened at the August 2 concert instead. We announced that a survey would be available in paper copy in the lobby and that an online survey would be live at the end of the concert on our website and through Facebook.

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. MVAS 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 is 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.","Goal 1: Some 60 classes will be on offer this year. More importantly the classes are filling well. The only class cancelled to date was a cooking class held 2 weeks after the new schedule launch. That class was rescheduled for later in 2019. Class schedules have been distributed throughout Minneapolis and St. Paul. All Twin Cities classes have filled to date. Goal 2: Previously, the largest number of attendees at the Spoon Gathering was 160. In 2018, there were 205 registered participants. 200 was our theoretical limit based on the facilities and staffing, however the school feels it can handle at least 225 for 2019. Goal 3: The Young Artist Scholarship Fund is up and running. The school has already had 2 successful applicants. One was a 22 year old female college student from St. Paul who has a passion for wood bowl turning and the other was a 15 year old local high school student with a interest in Norwegian knife making. Several of our past young students have taken our classes and now pursuing arts careers. One is currently at college studying art and the another is in Sweden studying metal working at a famous Swedish folk school. MVAS hopes the Young Artist Scholarship Fund will help to facilitate more of these successes. MVAS has never had the budget for wide scale media promotion. The partnership with Pioneer has enabled MVAS to reach a much wider audience. One of our challenges has been that students were not aware the school existed. Once a student takes a class a the school, more often than not they return to take further classes.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",73694,"Other,local or private",83270,,"Jon Roisen, John Larson, Kirstin Lindstrom, Jill Christie, Robin Moore, Jill Blom, Scott Wilson, Bob Kempe, Pauline Pate",,"Milan Village Arts School","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Operating Support",,"Operating Support FY18/19.",2018-01-01,2019-12-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ron,Porep,"Milan Village Arts School","PO Box 230",Milan,MN,56262,"(320) 734-4807 ",mvas@fedteldirect.net,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Chippewa, Swift, Lac qui Parle, Kandiyohi, Big Stone, Renville, Meeker, Stearns, Redwood, Lyon, Pope, Yellow Medicine, Stevens, Murray, Pipestone, Grant, Douglas, Otter Tail, Wadena, Traverse, Wilkin, Hennepin, Carver, Dakota, Todd, Rice, Wright, Wright",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/operating-support-1346,"Joyce Aakre: Visual Art, Writing, SMAC Board; Pam Blake: Visual Art, SMAC Board; Mark Bosveld: Theatre, Arts Admin; Steve Linstrom: Writing, Museum Admin; Anne O'Keefe-Jackson: Visual Art, SMAC Board; Liz Rackl: Visual Art, Arts Admin; Tom Wirt: Visual Art, SMAC Board.","John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor, director, teacher; Marilee Strom: musician, former art teacher, business owner; Kathy Fransen: musician, theatre, Rhythm of the River coordinator; Janet Olney: visual artist, Willmar Area Arts Council coordinator; Joyce Meyer: photographer, retired art teacher, Canby Arts Council; Pam Blake: retired art educator, visual artist, Tyler Arts Council, Lincoln County Art Fair, South Dakota Arts Educators Association, Southwest Minnesota Weaver's Guild; Michele Knife Sterner: theatre actor, SMSU Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Tom Wirt: artist, owner Clay Coyote Gallery, Hutchinson Center for the Arts, past member Hutchinson Public Arts Commission; Joyce Aakre: visual arts, writing, Discover Dassel committee, Board member for Litchfield Community Education, Exhibit committee for Dassel Area Historical Society; Kelly Muldoon: graphic artist, Prairie Music Association, Prairie Oasis Players; Dan Wahl: writer, visual artist, director, adjunct English instructor SMSU; Anne O'Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Cindy Reverts: visual artist, Rock County Fine Arts Association treasurer, Council for Arts in Humanities in Rock County; Brett Lehman: Worthington International Festival, Worthington City Band, Worthington Concert Association; Reggie Gorter: vocalist, theatre, voice, dance teacher; Dana Conroy: producer, filmmaker; Claire Swanson: visual arts, arts teacher, Meander Art Crawl Committee.",,2

The number of impressions does not include the Minnesota State Parks and Trails For Real Campaign 2015 (advertising interpretive/naturalist programs) as much of it occurred in Fiscal Year 2016. Many impressions cannot be measured for example commercials that stream on radio stations’ websites or other websites. There aren’t reporting services that measure these.

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.

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. Common compounds include pesticides applied in agricultural settings and those applied to lawns and gardens.The program is designed specifically to evaluate pesticides, however, analysis of nutrients and sediment is also considered.

A water and sediment basin is an earthen embankment built so that sediment-laden runoff is temporarily detained, allowing sediment to settle out before runoff is discharge. These are installed on agricultural cropland where erosion exceeds the allowable soil rate. Minimum detention time to store water is 36 hours for a 10 year, 24 hour runoff event. Starting in 2010, the District received dollars to assist landowners with flood-related projects. Some of these projects were water and sediment basins on cropland with slopes greater than 10%. The success of these Best Management Practices had landowners requesting more funding than what the district had money available. Because of this popular conservation practice, the district has landowners on a waiting list. Water and sediment basins are a practical practice landowners can install while at the same time addressing the impairments of the Sand Hill River. Phase IV will install an additional 50 water and sediment basins with estimates of sediment reduction of 966 tons per year; phosphorus reduction of 1033 pounds per year and soil saved of 1658 tons per year.

The successful outcome resulted from MSU,M and PAM leadership having worked together informally over the years; during the grant period holding many discussions, some facilitated; and timely, thoughtful work of the facilitator, lawyers, and MSU,M and PAM staff. Indicator 2, short-term progress indicator: Generate 15 ideas of possible curriculum changes to further develop and vet in Year Two. Grant work exceeded the target. Defining :curriculum: as the totality of student experience, grant work generated 27 suggestions/recommendations: one course alteration, four conceptual courses, five challenges to consider, six best practices for department administration and organization, seven student engagement ideas, and four community engagement ideas.

Again, this was a study and recommendations project. None of the recommended changes have yet been implemented at the MLCHS. After the recommended changes have been made, we expect to see results in the following areas: 1) With routine maintenance, we expect the durability of the lighting changes that this grant will initiate (likely including window coverings, lighting fixture updates and lighting controls) will last for several decades. This will extend the life of MLCHS photos, documents, clothing and other three dimensional artifacts on display and in our collection. 2) With regard to energy use, we expect the museum's consumption of electricity and energy costs will decrease due to the use of more efficient lighting fixtures, occupancy sensors and dimmers. 3) The museum's energy consumption may also be reduced by window treatments which in addition to excluding exterior UV light may also provide additional insulating value and reduced heat loss.",,,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",8164,,"F.

When combined with Phases 1-4 of the Prairie Recovery Program we have cumulatively protected 6,475 acres, enhanced 114,595 acres and restored 1,452 acres using Outdoor Heritage Fund dollars. We will continue to implement subsequent Phases toward meeting the conservation goals described in the MN Prairie Conservation Plan. ",,"Scope of work:With the requested funding the following actions and outcomes were achieved: Phase 5 built upon the success of the MN Prairie Recovery Project Phases 1-4 by continuing and expanding enhancement and protection work in 4 focal areas. Project partners, primarily through our participation in Prairie Plan Local Technical teams, helped us to prioritize and refine guidelines for protection, enhancement and restoration activities within priority landscapes. The Prairie Recovery Program utilizes a collaborative model for conservation and we regularly consult and work with a variety of entities including state and federal agencies, other conservation nonprofits, agricultural producer groups and local governments. 698 acres of existing and restorable grassland, prairie pothole wetland complex, and savanna were permanently protected within prairie core and corridor areas as defined in the MN Prairie Conservation Plan. Lands are held by The Nature Conservancy, subject to a recorded notice of funding restrictions pursuant to LSOHC requirements. All lands acquired in fee are FULLY open to hunting and fishing per state of Minnesota regulations. Basic developments have been, and will continue to be, implemented (boundary signage, habitat improvement, wetland restoration). Protection efforts were coordinated with other partner protection programs (e.g., DNR Wildlife Management Area and Prairie Bank programs), via interactions through Local Technical Teams. An internal fund has been established by The Nature Conservancy to cover ongoing land-management costs and property tax obligations. Income generated by agricultural leases (grazing, haying, and/or cropping) are held in this account and help offset property taxes. Coincidentally, exactly 698 acres of cropland and former foodplots were restored to diverse, local-ecotype grassland or grassland/wetland complex. Extensive effort was made to collect seed from local sources that cover the full season (early spring through late fall) needs of native pollinators. Seed sourcing included both mechanical and hand collection. 18,839 acres of grassland complex were enhanced on public lands and those purchased with OHF funds and held by the Conservancy (“protected conservation lands”) to increase native species diversity and improve critical wildlife habitat. Management techniques included prescribed fire (50 projects impacting 11,730 acres), removal of woody vegetation (40 projects for 3,048 acres), control of exotic species (70 projects - 3,930 acres), and inter-seeding of degraded grasslands (13 projects - 131 acres). Much of this work was accomplished by private vendors through contracts. We also extensively used Conservation Corps of Minnesota (CCM) crews and seasonal staff employed directly by TNC. On-the-ground Conservancy staff provided by this grant were co-located in DNR or US Fish and Wildlife Service offices and helped form and lead local coordination and implementation teams; identified protection, restoration and enhancement needs and opportunities within the focus areas; worked with DNR and USFWS staff to delineate conservation projects on public lands; coordinated deployment of contract and staff resources to protected conservation lands; contacted and worked with private landowners to coordinate agricultural activities/leases on appropriate protected conservation lands (e.g., haying, grazing, cropping in advance of restoration); educated lessees on appropriate conservation grazing/haying practices; supervised management of lands acquired above; planned and conducted prescribed burns; and other activities related to prairie conservation in the focus areas.  Contracts were let to provide a high level of enhancement activities to new and existing protected conservation lands, greatly expanding current capacity. These activities improved the habitat value of public lands that were not receiving adequate management treatment, while simultaneously providing local jobs through CCM and businesses. Activities included removal of undesirable woody vegetation, identification and treatment of invasive species infestations, removal of abandoned fences and/or other structures, and related restoration/enhancement activities. To ensure goals and outcomes are consistently achieved across all 4 project areas, a project coordinator oversaw implementation of the above activities and provided administrative support for budget monitoring and reporting. Significant marketing and media outreach was conducted by the Conservancy to highlight the goals and accomplishments of the project to local and statewide constituents, as well as elected officials. http://www.nature.org/ourinitiatives/regions/northamerica/unitedstates/minnesota/policy/minnesota-prairie-recovery-project.xml Temporary seasonal crews were employed by the Conservancy to provide additional capacity for public land management during critical periods like spring burn season. These crews helped create flexibility for enhancement projects and maximized the ability of specialized skilled personnel like burn bosses to increase the number of acres annually enhanced. 2. How priorities were set: Prioritization and prioritization criteria vary with the conservation tactic being employed (i.e., protection, restoration, enhancement). Focus areas were selected where there was overlap with MN County Biological Survey prairie “focus areas” and TNC portfolio areas. Each of the 4 project geographies directly correlate to core areas identified in the MN Prairie Conservation Plan. Because this project is a collaborative effort involving multiple partners, tactical priorities and criteria were established at both the state and local level by respective coordinating groups. criteria for each of these tactics include: a. Protection: location/proximity to other habitats, location/proximity to other protected lands, presence of rare/endangered species, imminence of conversion, ability to support grazing, size, cost, and likelihood for leveraged funding. A more robust listing of selection criteria can be provided upon request. b. Restoration: feasibility/likelihood of success, location, cost, availability of seed, and availability of restoration technical assistance, proximity to other habitats, and their ability to buffer or increase the conservation value of other protected lands. c. Enhancement: urgency/time since last enhancement, feasibility of success, accessibility, availability of enhancement technical assistance, cost, proximity to other habitats and partnership benefits.

The Crow Wing County Historical Society Museum and Research Library are housed in the former Crow Wing County Jail and Sheriff's Residence built in 1916. The property, along with the Crow Wing County Courthouse, is currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places Roof work consisted of repairs to the east side roof valley and a small area on the west side. Clay tiles were carefully removed to expose the damaged areas. The roof structure was reinforced and the original clay tiles were put back in place. A few broken tiles in different areas across the roof were replaced as needed. The majority of existing tiles were salvaged and reused, no new tiles were purchased for these repairs.  Tuckpointing and concrete repairs were completed on the building. Crumbled mortar and any broken brick were carefully removed and replaced. With the number of original stock bricks onsite, no new bricks were purchased to make these repairs.  The brown aluminum windows that were installed in 1980 were removed and replaced with a white double hung window, bringing the building back to its original look. Accessibility improvements on the interior of the building consisted of reconstructing the existing AV room to create accessible access between the archive room and the gallery, remodeling the lower level restroom, removing partitions and adding grab bars to create single-use accessible public restrooms, adding handrails in the identified locations and updating door hardware where needed. In the attic space, a new opening and ramp were successfully created and the original brick was salvaged and reused.  Other interior works consisted of gypsum board replacement in areas that had water damage and spindles were added in the gallery area to comply with the building code. In regards to the mechanical updates to the HVAC system, air conditioning units, two new fan coil units and a new air handling unit with automated controls were successfully installed. The HVAC system has been tested and balanced and is controlled by the campus automation system. With the building deficiencies addressed and the envelope of the building secured, they can ensure the protection of the artifacts and preservation of this 100+-year-old historic structure. Repairs to the roof, drainage system and exterior brick will prevent further deterioration of the building and maximize its life expectancy. Rehabilitation of the wood windows will extend the efficiency and lifespan by as many years as new aluminum windows would provide. Updating the mechanical equipment and automated controls will prove to be most valuable to the care and extended life of the irreplaceable artifact housed in the building. The Crow Wing County Historical Museum and Research Library will continue to be a place all ages can enjoy, learn and experience pieces of Crow Wing County history.

Following appraisal of the priority parcel it was determined that excess funding would be available to acquire additional lands.  This project includes acquisition of a 440-acre priority property containing an 80-acre lake, acquisition of 375 acres directly adjacent to the St. Louis River, acquisition of 236 acres with 2,000 feet along the St. Louis River, and 1504 acres of St. Louis County tax forfeit parcels. This project protects the water quality of the St. Louis River, provides expanded opportunities for public fishing and hunting, and prevents forest fragmentation. I.  Acquired the 440-Acre Priority Property:  Chi-wizo zaaga’iganing (Simian Lake) The priority for this project was the acquisition of a 440-acre property (“Priority Property”), which was one of the largest privately owned properties within the Fond du Lac Reservation and is being marketed by a real estate broker.  The Priority Property contains 83 acres of wetlands and an 80-acre lake, Chi-wizo zaaga’iganing (also known as Simian Lake), which is classified as a high-priority fishery and drains into the St. Louis River.  Preventing development of this lake will contribute to the restoration efforts of the St. Louis River by eliminating potential sources of sediment and nutrient loads. By purchasing the Priority Property in its entirety, the Fond du Lac Band will prevent fragmentation of the 194 acres of forest habitat on the Property.    II.  Acquired 611 Acres Along the Main Stem of the St. Louis River The Fond du Lac Band acquired 236 acres containing 2,000 feet of frontage along St. Louis River in one acquisition and 375 acres containing 3.7 miles of frontage along the St. Louis River in a second acquisition.  These acquisitions ensure public access ensure conservation of critical habitat along the St. Louis River. III. Acquired 1504 Acres of St. Louis County Tax Forfeit Lands This large acquisition of lands scattered throughout the Fond du Lac Reservation prevents future development of and further fragmentation of forested lands.

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

Title of lands acquired is held by Cass County in Fee.",,"Central MN, especially areas in Cass County from Brainerd/Baxter to 'walker, has and will continue to see some of the fastest human population growth in MN. This growth has lead to increased demands for use of this area, its natural resources and related public land base that are needed to support this growth. Development of these private industrial parcels has resulted in the loss of Jack Pine barrens in the landscape of southern Cass County. Industrial forest tracts held by Potlatch are currently being sold to private developers. These lands often provide access to existing public lands for resource management, are inholdings in otherwise unfragmented landscapes, create contiguous wildlife corridors, and protect larger blocks of land especially useful for stand level management of habitat. Key industrial forest tracts (i.e. inholdings in large public land tracts, management access issues) are being considered or currently being offered for sale by a large industrial forest owner (Potlatch Corp) in this area. Depressed market conditions and a willingness by this industrial forest owner to sell at this time is an opportunity that should be addressed now since it is narrow and may close at any time. The strategy was to acquire land that completes existing habitat corridors. The land acquired has existing forest access roads that have been used for management access for years. The sale of these lands to private individuals has already resulted in the loss of access for resource management on public lands and conversion from forest to agricultural use. The acquired lands were not being pursued for convenience of management. The acquired parcels play a key role in future management plans of the Jack Pine Barrens including the role of fire as a management tool. The loss of these parcels to private ownership would have resulted in lost access and possibly loss of forest land. Management of adjacent public lands would have been limited to frozen ground conditions. This would have eliminated management tools such as site preparation of Jack Pine plantings and aerial seeding as well as prescribed burns for Jack Pine regeneration. This type of management requires year round access. The acquired lands provide year round management access to existing public lands in the Jack Pine barrens landscape. The acquisition of these lands provided permanent year round access for forest management as well as protecting habitat in and around the surrounding areas. The Cass County Forest Resource Management Plan directs the County to acquire land of this nature whenever possible to protect our management access. The Cass County Comprehensive plan requires no new loss of acres of public land and local unit of government input on all purchases and land sales. This project met the requirements of both plans and required stakeholder input as part of the project. The local units of government with private industrial lands to be purchased have provided written consent for the purchase of each parcel.

The effort has included representatives from the Divisions of Fish and Wildlife, Ecological and Water Resources, Parks and Trails, and Forestry who have identified parcels containing high ecological, water, habitat, recreational, access and timber values. The process has included the participation of county boards, county staff and Potlatch representatives. One of the two parcels acquired is the new Badoura Jack Pine Forest SNA which benefitted from additional Outdoor Heritage Funding provided to the Division of Ecological and Water Resources and who also had funding provided by the Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund. The second parcel acquired will be added to the Badoura State Forest. Both parcels are located in southeastern Hubbard County adjacent to or in close proximity to other public lands and will be open for public access including hunting. The Badoura Jack Pine Forest SNA protects a rare jack pine woodland plant community which is considered Imperiled or Critically Imperiled (S1S2) by the DNR and Globally Rare (G2) by NatureServe and which also contains several populations of the State Special Concern plant species Hill’s thistle (Cirsium hillii). These jack pine woodland plant communities are characterized by a mix of prairie and northern forest plant species and this acquisition represents one of the largest remaining stands of jack pine woodland in this part of the state. The second parcel includes 420 acres of forestland that protects at risk pine and hardwood forest habitat. Forest lands acquired include those most at risk of near-term conversion to row crop agriculture, and parcels adjacent to already publically owned lands that would augment protection for the Pineland Sands aquifer. These parcels also provide habitat connectivity and management and public access to additional areas of state and county forest lands.

Bringing people from different areas/ backgrounds together to enjoy a fun afternoon. 4. Building social capital and community spirit. 5. Give opportunities to residents who would not otherwise have access to the arts Our goal is to have a successful festival that brings large numbers of the community together to learn about the sights, sounds and customs of Serbia and Slovenia through the joy of music and dancing. Social capital is an important factor to consider when making plans for events; we expect to see relationships being formed as people gather to experience something special. This as an opportunity for families to enjoy a day of music and fun at no cost. Opportunities are limited for those with limited budgets. Our goal is and always has been, to open vast opportunities to those who haven't had experiences such as this. This was a big reason for the redevelopment of the GND Recreation Area.

We will discuss our sales and the system we used in 2017 and determine our path for 2018 based on how things go. Learning will occur as we evaluate all that went well and those things which could be done better.

A TASCAM DR-100mkIII Handheld Recorder and 2 Rode NTG4+ Shotgun Mics will comprise the core audio portion of my Gig Media Kit. I will add these components to my existing Cannon VIXIA HF R50 full HD digital video camera, camera stand, two mic stands and cables to complete the kit. The hand held recorder and two shotgun microphones can be be setup within minutes and recording initiated. I know now that using video clips in my promotion has increased my audience. I want to continue this with a better sound quality. I believe the introduction of high quality sound in my video promotion this summer will further my career. The project plan consists of 3 preparatory steps before using in the field and then importing recorded audio to multi track recording and video editing software. 1) acquiring new equipment 2) integrating with existing equipment 3) testing 4) deployment and use 5) mixing final deliverables 1) After acquiring the recorder and microphones I will unpack it and 2) set it up with my existing equipment. 3) testing starts with understanding and being able to record high quality audio. When this is accomplished the audio can be exported in various digital formats (CDs) and/or use in videos. I will first set up the equipment and then make various trial recordings trying different recorder settings and mic placements to import the recorded audio into my multi track software (Cakewalk SONAR) until a sufficiently high fidelity is achieve and the process is well understood. 4) I will use the Media Kit to record performances. The kit will be contained in a single bag and is easy to transport and setup. I will record the performance. 5) The recorded audio will be mixed and used in CDs and mp3s to evaluate the performances. For video editing software I use MAGIX Video Pro X8.

This project commissions new works of art, poetry, and music, some that may happen in immediate response at a multimedia public performance to be held during Ely's Winter Festival on Sunday, February 4, 2018, at 2:00 pm in the Vermilion Community College Theater. Kenig will create artwork using collage and crayon drawings; Stouffer will use Kenig's art as inspiration for poetry; and Kenig, in turn, will compose acoustic guitar music in response to Stouffer's poems. There will be original poems created for the performance based on some of Stouffer's art or photography or written without visual prompt (solo on Stouffer's part) and original music from Kenig (solo on his part). The artists will create together one piece that combines everything: a piece of art that inspires a song written and performed together. We have two main goals in mind. First, this project will benefit two local artists. As a result of participation in this project, the artists will create new original art. This will be measured by the deliverables they produce. This project will also provide them an opportunity to expand and explore their artist boundaries; the depth of this growth will be measured through a post-project reflection. Secondly, this project will benefit our community as it will increase the propensity of our community members to participate in the arts. We will measure this by the number of participants at the performance. This project brings a new event to the Ely Winter Festival, enhancing the capacity of the Festival and Vermilion Community College. It fosters the image of Ely as an arts community, serves the need of locals for art-related events, and draws in tourists who might spend money at local businesses and on local art. This project helps fill a need on the VCC campus and in our broader community for arts-related activities that foster opportunities for self-expression. Importantly, this project invites an opportunity for children in the community and college students to participate in the arts. Students in K-12 and VCC students enrolled in a creative writing class will have the opportunity to engage with arts/writing, increasing their awareness. The attendance at the event and the work produced by students as a result of the rehearsal workshops held will measure its success.","The ARAC grant paid for commissioned art work created specifically for the Sebastian Project. The Sebastian project performance on February 4th, 2018 displayed original artwork of Joey Kenig visually, original poetry written and performed by Tim Stouffer and musical pieces created to accompany the poems by Joey Kenig. The performance also included two pieces that Kenig and Stouffer wrote and arranged together in the form of songs. The performance also incorporated not only collaboration between the two artists and three mediums, but the audience as a poem at the end of the performance was created with the artists and the audience. The college creative writing class, the Ely Tuesday group and the Ely Rotary as well as a group of 20 individuals took part in intimate workshop/rehearsals leading up to the event. The art made specifically for the event during the time of the grant exceeded the amount estimated in the original proposal. The art has inspired others to collaborate.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",670,"Other,local or private",1200,,,,"Timothy J.

Pauline Oliveros is an American composer and accordionist who is a central figure in the development of experimental and post-war electronic art music. She is an important influence on my work and on that of several of my collaborators. A second goal is to learn more about the science of acoustics and explore the rich possibilities for immersive sound environments using the advanced technologies available at the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center. The Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center is where the arts, sciences, and technology interact with and influence each other by using the same facilities, technologies, and by breathing the same air. The Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center is well known for their research into immersive, sensory environments. Conference participants have the opportunity to map their own compositions to this space. I have written work for this purpose. I will sharpen my acoustic impulse and build my technical skills.I have recorded sound experiments to test in that space. I will journal about this experience and will keep extensive notes from other conference presentations and performances. I will write and release online an essay summarizing my own sound practice. This will further integrate the conference experience and will help me develop language to describe my own practice. I will return to Duluth and record / mix one album-length sound study using new skills and inspirations from the conference. I will make connections with at least eight new long-term colleagues. The Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center has a residency and commissioning program.

The new art will immediately be exhibited in my local gallery and other local and regional exhibitions. The outcomes from this workshop are important to the materials, processes, and product necessary in my art. Materials: The fundamental nature of this workshop will teach me to improve techniques of peyote and brickwork stitches to create shapes and imagery. Materials: The accompanying conference is advertised as the largest bead consumer market in the world. I will learn about the materials that will best work with my art and have a place to purchase them. Processes: I will visit with other beaders and learn from their experiences and beadwork. The beadwork in various exhibitions at this conference will be inspiring. Product: My art will immediately show the results of this workshop. For example I am trying to make beaded shapes as elements in my designs and need one-on-one guidance how to make them. As a result my beaded shapes will look more like the images in my imagination. I punch holes in my copper shapes for threading beads. I will learn what threading materials work best with the sharp hard edges of copper.

Once out of the attic, each object was cleaned individually with a variable-suction vacuum cleaner to remove dust, broken feathers, and the remains of dead pests. About a dozen hats were found to have live infestations of carpet beetles. These hats were placed in polyester bags and have been set aside away from the remainder of the collection. As part of the cleaning process, each item was paired with an Initial Assessment Form made for this project. (See copies of the blank forms in the attachments.) These allowed us to quickly gather the object number (if known), brief description, condition, maker?s marks, and any other identification. The slip followed the hat throughout the process spelled out below. These completed slips have been retained for RCHS?s records. After cleaning, the hats were laid out on a series of tables, and a consultant went with the staff through each hat individually, and discussed the style, time period, and significance of each hat. Conversations were recorded, and this information was included on the slip, then integrated into the PastPerfect record. Hats were then sorted into boxes based on time period and style. The shoes were sorted by style. Each box was cataloged, photographed, and housed in turn. In addition to hats and shoes, this grant also covered the cataloging of hatboxes. Dozens of hatboxes, all of which were constructed of acidic materials and not suited for long-term museum quality storage, were stored in the attic, all containing hats themselves. Many boxes were duplicates ? including more than two dozen Dayton?s hat boxes ? or were in poor condition. These were all evaluated by staff and the RCHS Collections Committee. Over 40 hatboxes were deaccessioned, with 26 remaining in the collection. The retained hatboxes were cataloged and photographed. Of the 234 cataloged hats, about half needed to have object identification labels sewn into them. Most of those were FIC, but some were hats that needed replacement labels or that had been reunited with their numbers during the cataloging process. RCHS hosted a ?hat labeling party? at which seven volunteers sewed 135 labels into hats over the course of five hours. This project has long-ranging effects in a variety of ways. Many of these objects haven?t been evaluated in several decades. Some of the earliest bonnets may not have been looked at since the attic was built in the 1970s. Half of the hats and several of the pairs of shoes were unidentified. By recataloging these collections, they have brought more than 300 records up to RCHS?s current standards. The numbers on these objects were added when missing and refreshed when needed. Hats and shoes have been photographed to assist with identification and future collections care, and they have been safely housed to ensure longevity. The hats and shoes are valuable for more than just their physical presence. These artifacts represent a now-extinct business history of Rice County. According to RCHS?s written records, two of their 1920s and 30s cloche hats were made and sold in Mary Smisek Pexa?s millinery. One of the prominent names in Faribault?s millinery and clothing industries was Verna Love Ochs. According to her 1989 obituary, Verna graduated the U of M and the Minneapolis Business College and served on the advisory board of the Lowthian Fashion and Career College. After marrying Alfred Ochs in 1944, she was the vice-president of Ochs Department Store in Faribault, owned by Alfred and his brother. Ochs had its own millinery department and at least one of the hats in our collection was produced at Ochs, though many more were likely sold there. Verna was known to have a large and impressive collection of hats herself. According to anecdotal evidence, RCHS is in possession of many of her hats, as they were donated after her death before the rest were auctioned off.

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

Up to $190,000 to the Board of Water and Soil Resources is for establishing a monitoring and enforcement fund as approved in the accomplishment plan and subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 97A.056, subdivision 17. A list of permanent conservation easements must be provided as part of the final report. The appropriations in Laws 2012, chapter 264, article 1, section 2, subdivision 4, paragraph (a), and Laws 2013, chapter 137, article 1, section 2, subdivision 4, paragraph (a), may be used for the purposes of this appropriation.

",,"The RIM Wetlands Partnership Phase VI restored and protected almost 1,400 acres of previously drained wetlands and associated upland grassland wildlife habitat complexes via 15 permanent conservation easements.  The goal of the RIM Wetlands Partnership was to achieve the greatest wetland functions and values and optimizing wildlife habitat on acres enrolled. Wetlands and adjacent grasslands provide habitat for waterfowl, pheasants, deer and non-game species, some that are threatened or endangered.  Minnesota’s prairies once comprised nearly 20 million acres, extending from the borders of Iowa and Wisconsin in the southeast to North Dakota and Manitoba in the northwest.  Less than 1% of this native prairie remains.  Minnesota has lost an estimated 42 percent of its original 16 million acres of wetlands to drainage or fill activities.  The loss of wetlands is most severe in the prairie regions of the state.  Approximately 90% of prairie wetlands have disappeared and in the southwestern part of the state losses are as high as 99%. Prairie wetlands are particularly important for migratory waterfowl.  Although the North American pothole region contains only about 10% of the waterfowl nesting habitat on the continent (including a significant portion of Minnesota), it produces 70% of all North American waterfowl.  This extensive loss of Minnesota’s prairie and wetland habitat has lead to the decline of many wildlife and plant species originally abundant in the state.  Of the nearly 1,200 known wildlife species in Minnesota, 292 species, or approximately one-fourth, are at risk because they are rare. Their populations are declining or they face serious risks of decline due to loss of habitat.  The RIM Wetlands Partnership held meetings regularly to provide program oversight and guidance and to establish payment rates for upcoming sign-ups. The RIM Wetlands Partnership used the GIS Wildlife Habitat Potential Model developed by the USFWS Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET) to evaluate each easement application on its potential to restore wetland functions and values along with optimum wildlife habitat benefits.  A RIM Wetlands Partnership statewide sign-up was held in 2015. All applications were scored and ranked using the RIM Wetland Restoration Evaluation Worksheet.  The worksheet evaluated which projects provided the greatest wetland functions and values and optimized wildlife habitat on the selected and enrolled acres.  The highest scoring applications were selected for funding.

Case 1903 Steam traction engine. A leak in the mudleg area of the firebox must be repaired to preserve the historical integrity so it can be demonstrated for educational purposes. Escher Fenske, a Faribault County farmer purchased the engine new in 1903. In addition to purchasing the standard engine, he also bought two optional accessories, a canopy to protect it from the weather and a pull behind water and fuel tender. Both pieces remain with the engine today. In 2013 a water leak in the mudleg area of the boiler and firebox was discovered. The boiler is under tremendous pressure when the engine is fired. The metal separating the firebox and boiler must pass strict pressure test in order to be certified operational. An ultrasound test and a Borescope inspection a Minnesota Department of Labor Boiler inspector revealed that the left and back slant bottom of the mudlegs on the furnace box are thinning and must be cut out and replaced. The engine cannot safely be fired up and pressurized until the compromised area was replaced and the engine re-inspected. Technicians evaluated the problem and develop a repair plan with the stipulation any repairs that are done must not alter the exterior appearance or impact the historical integrity of the machine. The vintage Case steam traction engine has been restored to safe operating condition. It was demonstrated during the August 11-12 2018 Blackberry Farm show.

Since the mid-20th century, distinguished Black Minnesota scholars and researchers such as the late Walter R. Scott Sr., Dr. David Taylor, and Dr. William Green began documenting and publishing the historical accomplishments and contributions of Black Minnesotans that were thriving in the 19th and 20th centuries.

A restoration and enhancement plan and a list of proposed land restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Restored 25 acres and enhanced 259 acres for a total of 284 acres ",,70000,"County, County, County ",425000,,,.50,"Washington County","Local/Regional Government","This project restored and enhanced rare and unique plant and animal communities identified by the DNR's County Biological Survey. Over 293 acres of prairie, forest, wetland were restored and enhanced. Ultimately, the county was able to approach or exceed the goal of 20% increase in diversity across all three habitats based on plant surveys conducted. ","   ","This project focused on restoration and enhancement of native plant communities in Washington County’s last best public lands, as identified by the DNR’s County Biological Survey, the Metro Conservation Corridors program, and the County’s Top 10 Priority Conservation Areas (January 2012). The goal of the project was to establish a 20% increase in species diversity, resulting in higher quality and higher functioning habitats. This was accomplished utilizing a combination of contractors and internal staff to complete buckthorn removal and follow-up on re-sprouts, native plant seeding, controlled burns and reducing dominance of reed canary grass in wetlands to increase available wildlife habitat.  The restored and enhanced lands were selected strategically to connect existing managed native landscapes to previously isolated DNR identified rare and unique plant and animal communities. Ultimately, this has helped to create a mosaic of interconnected landscapes of sufficient size that will accommodate the greatest biological diversity. Overall, Washington County restored or enhanced 284 acres of habitat, a 8% increase (21 acres) over the original project goal of 259 acres. Restoration and enhancement activities took place at three locations: along the St. Croix River (St. Croix Bluffs Regional Park), within a major watershed of the Mississippi River (Cottage Grove Ravine Regional Park), and within a wetland dotted landscape that is characteristic of east-central Minnesota and the St. Paul Baldwin Plains and Moraines landscape subsection (Lake Elmo Park Reserve). Restoration focused on three habitat types: forest (154 acres), prairie (103 acres) and wetland (27 acres). Summary of the restoration/enhancement efforts and the evaluation efforts in each habitat type: Forest Oak forest habitat enhancement was completed in all three locations in Washington County, for a total of 154 acres, including oak forest, mesic hardwood forest and oak savanna where undesirable shrubs such as common buckthorn have been out competing the native plant communities. In these areas, a contractor removed buckthorn and honeysuckle using a combination of forestry mowing, chainsaw cutting and stump treatments and basal barking. Material was either mulched on-site or piled and burned. Following initial removal, buckthorn and honeysuckle re-sprouts were treated with foliar chemical spray for two years following initial removal.  In order to quantify the effectiveness of these approaches and the progress toward the goal of a 20% increase in species diversity, three plots were established at each location and surveyed each year from 2015 to 2018. The surveys showed that the work resulted in a significant decrease in buckthorn extent, height and density across all nine plots. As of 2018, Buckthorn extent was still below 25% in all but one plot, and below 10% in five plots. There was also an increase in native woody and herbaceous vegetation in all nine plots over the same time period. Native woody species increased from an average of 3.3 species/plot to 5.9 species/plot, and native herbaceous species increased from an average of 2.7 species/plot to 11.0 species/plot.   Prairie Stewardship work in the prairie included both 81 acres of enhancement and 25 acres of restoration at Lake Elmo Park Reserve. The tallgrass prairie enhancement was accomplished by interseeding native forbs into existing prairie restorations that were established in 1989. Prior to implementing, a pilot project was implemented to evaluate three different interseeding methods; the most successful method was determined to be a prairie burn, followed by discing and then broadcasting the forbs. A preliminary meandering survey of the prairie was used to identify species to interseed into the prairie and 51 forb species that were rare or absent were selected to be seeded in spring and winter of 2016. An average of 35% of the species seeded had established in a survey conducted in 2018, only 1-2 growing seasons post-interseeding. It is anticipated that more species will establish over time with continued management such as burning, grazing and or haying to reduce grass dominance. In addition to the enhancement, 25 acres of prairie were restored from cropland, 11 acres using OHF funds and an additional 14 acres leveraged by the County. The seed mix included a mesic prairie mix used for 18.5 acres and a wet prairie mix for 1.5 acres. In total 86 different species were seeded by Washington County staff in the fall of 2015 using a Truax seed drill for grasses and broadcasting forbs. In a survey three years after planting, 51% of the seeded species were identified (44 species, 10 grasses/sedges and 34 forbs). Similar to the prairie enhancement, it is expected that species will continue to establish and be identified with more time and management.  Wetland 27 acres of wetland, in 29 different wetlands, were enhanced at Lake Elmo Park Reserve, including seasonally flooded wetlands, mixed emergent marsh, wet meadow and littoral open water wetlands. A wetland management plan developed by Barr Engineering and Washington Conservation District detailed the control of reed canary grass as important to increasing wetland plant diversity. Enhancement methods included a combination of herbicide application and controlled burning, followed by seeding with a native wetland mix. Comparison of pre-enhancement and post-enhancement wetland surveys indicate an average reduction in Reed canary grass of 44%, as well as an increase in native dominant plant diversity in 22 of 29 wetlands surveyed (76%). Of the 43 species seeded by the contractors, 34 (79%) were identified in the 2018 post-enhancement survey. There are plans in place for continued follow-up on reed canary grass to ensure long-term persistence of the native plants.    ",2014-07-01,2019-11-01,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Dan,MacSwain,"Washington County","11660 Myeron Road North ",Stillwater,MN,55082,(651)430-4323,dan.macswain@co.washington.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Washington,"Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/restoration-and-enhancement-washington-countys-public-lands,,,,

RIM Buffers uniquely leverages the Clean Water Fund and the Outdoor Heritage Fund to expand basic water quality buffers into high quality wildlife habitat. Outdoor Heritage Funds will double the size of Clean Water Fund (CWF) easements to provide additional wildlife benefits on areas that are not required by law or rule to have buffers, enhancing protection values from a water quality focus to a multi-benefit habitat-oriented corridor. Due to the unique nature of the State's CWF/OHF match, each dollar of OHF is leveraged by 5:1, with five Federal & CWF dollars leveraged for each OHF dollar. OHF funded buffers, when linked to CWF buffers, will yield a total of 4,106 acres of buffers. Due to guidance from LSOHC, only the acres (2,053) and funding ($5,333,000) from OHF have been displayed in the Output Tables.Minnesota continues to see a net loss of grasslands and CRP acres each year. This exodus is being driven by high land prices, increased pressure for alternative uses, and declining federal budgets for conservation programs. Minnesota's primary strategy to mitigate the loss of CRP is to target expiring contracts for enrollment into Continuous CRP practices (like buffers) and permanent easements.RIM Buffer easements will be secured via Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) permanent easement acquisition, utilizing both a 15 year CRP contract and permanent RIM easement. This will be Minnesota's third CREP, and is able to offer a large-scale impact due to the unique opportunity to utilize a substantial federal match. Over the five year CREP period, we look to enroll permanently protected buffers using a combination of the USDA Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) and the Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) Reserve Program. RIM Buffers is a partnership delivered locally by Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) and at the State level by BWSR.

Local staff will promote CRP contracts and RIM easements, assist with easement processing and provide key essential technical assistance and project management services. Due to the reliance on local staff for implementation, the Farm Bill Assistance Partnership (FBAP) is included as a component in the RIM Buffers Program.

These acres provide a healthy and plentiful supply of habitat for fish, game, and wildlife, especially for waterfowl and upland birds. CREP utilizes both a 15-year CRP contract and a permanent RIM easement. RIM Wetlands Phase 8 was a local-state-federal partnership delivered locally by Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs) and BWSR. In addition, the CREP partnership is possible through collaboration among many local, state and federal partners including the USDA-Farm Service Agency (FSA), USDA-Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Pheasants Forever (PF), the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA), Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), and over 70 supporting organizations and agencies. BWSR staff coordinated with federal partners on the overall CREP process and program oversight. In addition, BWSR staff were responsible for the easement acquisition process. Local staff promote CRP contracts and RIM easements, assist with easement processing and provide key essential technical assistance and project management services. Some highlights of the easements funded through this project include: The largest easement funded in this project, 84-04-19-01 in Wilkin County, included 9 wetland basins on almost 50 acres and 150 acres of existing grasses established with CRP. The parcel had an existing USFWS easement that was not included in the CREP easement but the CREP easement created additional connected habitat expanding the protected area of the parcel from the USFWS easement. Three of the 5 easements in Carver County, for a total of 113 acres, are a joint restoration project on over 80 acres of wetland. There is an additional 56 acre easement to the east of this project that was paid for and restored using Clean Water Funds. The payment rates were consistent throughout this appropriation but CRP annual rental rates fluctuated, so the state's contribution to the overall easement cost varied in reaction to the CRP rate.",,2017-07-01,1970-01-01,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Sharon,Doucette,"Board of Water and Soil Resources","520 Lafayette Road N ","St. Paul",MN,55155,651-539-2567,sharon.doucette@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources",,"Blue Earth, Brown, Carver, Cottonwood, Freeborn, Grant, Martin, Meeker, Nicollet, Redwood, Renville, Rice, Steele, Swift, Traverse, Wilkin, Yellow Medicine","Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area, Southeast Forest",,https://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/rim-wetlands-phase-viii,,,,

The source of additional funds varies from project to project, but generally consists of federal, local and non-public sources. ",,,,,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources","State Government","This program is a part of a comprehensive clean water strategy to prevent sediment and nutrients from entering our lakes, rivers, and streams; enhance fish and wildlife habitat; protect groundwater and wetlands. Specifically the Riparian Buffer Easement Program targets creating buffers on riparian lands adjacent to lakes, rivers, streams and tributaries. Through the Reinvest in Minnesota Program (RIM) and in partnership with Soil and Water Conservation Districts and private landowners, permanent conservation easements are purchased and buffers established. In 1986, the Reinvest in Minnesota Resources Act was enacted to restore certain marginal and environmental sensitive agricultural land to protect soil and water quality and support fish and wildlife habitat. Utilizing the RIM conservation easement program, conservation easements on riparian lands are purchased. Lands that are targeted include new or existing USDA Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts with cropping history. Participating landowners receive a payment to retire land in agricultural production and to establish permanent buffers of native vegetation. Buffer strips of native vegetation will be established on the easement acres. The program is targeted to critical CRP acres so these areas would be permanently protected instead of enrolled in short-term contracts. These buffers slow and prevent sediment from entering lakes, rivers and streams, reduce hydrologic impacts to surface waters and increase infiltration for groundwater recharge. Minnesota currently has just over 200,000 acres of CRP in buffer practices at various stages of their 10-15 year contracts, some soon to expire. The buffer initiative compliments other programs, both existing and yet to be developed, over the next 25 years.

Activities will be concentrated in a 20 x 20' tent bump out to the Gnome Dome tent and presented by artists skilled in writing and illustrating. The bump out will be known as the ""Julenissen Klasser"" (Children's Christmas Class). GOALS are to: 1. Perpetuate the culture inherent in the Julebyen festival; Scandinavian arts, story-telling, myths, legends,skills, 2 Enable artistic interpretations and learning of Nordic history, mythology, culture and values. MEASUREMENT TOOLS: 1. The number of children (and their families) who partake in classes (as a guide, in 2017, 350 children participated in Nordic Christmas gift workshops. 2. The number of adults who judge the works of Klasser students and hear children read their stories. The initiative to add the ""Julenissen Klasser"" component began with Julebyen 2017. It marked the fifth successful year of Julebyen. At that point, the Julebyen committee critiqued all activities and concluded the obvious most popular were those directed to young families. For examples: 1. The Nordic Christmas gift workshop, which is offered every year, attracted 350 children and consumed about $1000 in craft supplies, all of which was uncompensated as Julebuyen is free to the public. 2. The ""Troll Train"" trip to Troll Canyon in partnership with the North Shore Scenic Railroad was initiated in 2016 and carried 164 passengers. In 2017 three excursions carried a total of 614 passengers. 3. In 2017, Julebyen doubled its footprint with the addition of ""Troll Village"" kitty corner from festival grounds. It offered additional attractions for children and featured an ""Artists Corner"" for authors and illustrators of books for both children and adults. Several children's authors sold out on the first day of and were forced to take books off their retailer's shelves for Sunday. Because of the unprecedented success of family activities, and festival-goers infatuation with Norwegian mythology, we are quite certain ""Julenissen Klasser"" will be another success. MEASUREMENT TOOLS: 1. The number of children who partake in classes (in 2017, 350 children participated in Nordic Christmas gift workshops. 2. The number of adults who view and judge the works of Klasser participants.","The most measurable outcome of the Julenissen Klasser (Christmas Santa Classes) component would be the number of students that partook in the story writing and illustrating classes, and the class in puppetry. Kelly Dupre, instructor of the writing and illustrating class, had one 90 minute class on both Saturday and Sunday. She had a total of 20 students for both days. Kimberly Baerg, puppet designer and builder of Joy Filled Puppets, held four one hour classes over the weekend. She had total of 15 students who demonstrated on stage how to manipulate a puppet and create a character voice - then present a traditional Norwegian folk tale puppet play to those attending Julebyen. We were disappointed in attendance and feel it may have been cannibalized by the children's craft workshop that took place nearby. The craft workshop attracted between 450 - 500 children over the weekend, and was free, as opposed to a charge of $10 for the writing and illustrating class and $5 for the puppetry classes. The Julebyen committee felt the cost of supplies for these classes necessitated the charges. We promoted the Julenissen Klassers on our web site and in our publicity. Others who benefited from Julenissen Klasser were those who were entertained by the new puppeteers who presented a Norwegian folk tale puppet play on stage. The stage backdrop designed and illustrated by Ann Gumpper, our third artist, was a great asset to the kids on stage who told their stories. Her backdrop of trees, mountains and fjords where enjoyed by many, and was a great backdrop for parents and grand parents to photograph their children and grand children. While Julenissen Klasser attendance was not as expected, we do realize this was a first year initiative and will hopefully improve in years to come. There were many pictures taken of the children who appeared on stage and we can hope they will appear in social media and help build future attendance.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",1418,"Other,local or private",5762,,,,"Knife River Recreation Council","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Rural and Community Art Project Grant",,"Create a cultural and artistic learning experience for children in a special ""Julenissen Klasser"" tent bump out during Julebyen 2018.",2018-11-30,2018-12-02,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Jacqulin,Sebastian,"Knife River Recreation Council","199 Alger Smith Rd PO Box 266","Knife River",MN,55609,"(218) 834-7138 ",vongoertzpaul@yahoo.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"Lake, St. Louis, Itasca, Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/rural-and-community-art-project-grant-45,"Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Tammy Mattonen: visual artist, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Johnnie Hyde: choreographer and dance teacher, publisher; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor; Keiko Williams: musician, Executive Director at Donald G.

We set as goals for the students are:exposure to professional musicians, enhanced vocal techniques, new friendships and a renewed enthusiasm for choral music. Our goals for the high school instructors include: to provide collaboration between teachers and Festival staff, to provide a round-table discussion to address concerns the teachers may have, and opportunities for the high school choral directors to observe and learn new teaching techniques from the Festival staff. Our goals for the communities involved are: To be able to attend a high quality choral concert, to take pride in their students and to witness what cooperation can achieve. Questionnaires will be available in the lobby for the audience. Questionnaires will be sent to each staff member, choral director, and students to evaluate what we can improve upon.We also provide a DVD of the Festival so each choir can critique their performance and the mass choir. The Festival staff also receives the DVD to evaluate the final concert with an eye for refinement. After each Festival I request feedback from the students, teachers and the Festival Staff. I love reading these comments. It lets me know what we are getting right (like the students use of the words: community, learning, sharing, appreciated and family) and what we can improve on. My favorite response this year (2018) was from a charter school in Tower, MN. ""We are a small choir and are all very close and are used to only having the 11 of us and hearing the same 11 voices every day. When we go to the Festival we feel comfortable because we are still with each other and DR. Olson, Prof. Mokole, Prof. Pierce, and Prof. Inselman are very welcoming to everyone and do their best to better us all. It is a new experience for the new members of our choir, at first they are usually nervous about it because there will be a lot of people but once we get there all the nerves go away and we have a blast.

Participants will have improved skills for appreciating art in various forms, deeper understanding its relationship to history and culture, and greater ability to make connections between art and disciplines and endeavors outside the arts. We will measure improved skills for appreciating the specific art form offered, deeper understanding its relationship to history and culture, and greater ability to make connections between the art form and disciplines outside the arts with before and after assessments. Participants' satisfaction will be measured by tracking willingness to refer others to future OACC events. We will also gather information about current volunteer activity, particularly in support of arts related projects in Carlton County. In addition to their survey responses, participants' advice and recommendations for strengthening OACC programs are gathered through frequent focus groups (also known as dinner, coffee, walks and other informal gatherings with neighbors and friends where we seek their candid advice and counsel). Because OACC makes extensive use of social media, participants' reviews will be continuously sought and gathered on various platforms. Because OACC is intensely focused on inclusion of diverse populations, data about race and ethnicity will be gathered as well. Results will be summarized for review with the OACC Board, and future programs will be adapted and designed based on this information.","Measurable outcomes were identified as 1) improved skills for appreciating the specific art forms offered; 2) deeper understanding of the art forms' relationship to history and culture; 3) greater ability to make connections between the art for and disciplines outside the arts.; 4) satisfaction with the artistic experience. Before and after assessments indicated positive changes in all participants' skills and understanding related to the first three outcomes, and positive responses to the question about willingness to refer others to the events provided positive data about all participants' satisfaction with the artistic experience. In addition, participants' advice and recommendations have been incorporated into the design of OACC's programs. Volunteers are now actively engaged in designing Cookin' at the O, Magnolia Salons, and Honey Bee Festival. Participants' advice was to discontinue Movies at the O; while it was a pleasant entertainment experience in a unique setting, it did not meet OACC's artistic success indicators.","Achieved most of the proposed outcomes",115156,"Other,local or private",119500,3500,,,"Oldenburg Arts and Cultural Community","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Rural and Community Art Project Grant",,"Oldenburg Arts and Cultural Community First Year Art Projects.",2018-07-06,2019-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Emily,Swanson,"Oldenburg Arts and Cultural Community","604 Chestnut Ave Oldenburg House",Carlton,MN,55718,"(218) 384-4835 ",emily@oacc.us,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"Carlton, Pine, Aitkin, Itasca, St. Louis",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/rural-and-community-art-project-grant-52,"Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Tammy Mattonen: visual artist, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Johnnie Hyde: choreographer and dance teacher, publisher; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor; Keiko Williams: musician, Executive Director at Donald G.

A secondary goal is to expand our participants' artistic skills. These are the measurable short-range outcomes: ň To maintain or increase artist participation ň To engage the public in the artists' work ň To create an atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork ň To be family-friendly These are the longerűrange outcomes: ň To provide rewarding experiences for audiences and increase appreciation for the arts ň To provide participants with opportunities for personal growth as artists ň To draw visitors to Ely to strengthen the local winter tourism industry The first outcome will be met if we have 40 or more participating artists and 14 or more snow sculptures in the park. The degree of engagement with the public is easily observed by EWF board members who will be in the park throughout the time when the carving is taking place. We will sponsor several group meals that are attended by artists and board members, and we will solicit feedback from artists informally at those events. Additionally, we will evaluate our success by soliciting feedback from other arts organizations (e.g., Northern Lakes Arts Association, Ely ArtWalk), the business community, and the general public. The first board meeting following the completion of the Festival is always open to the public for the express purpose of evaluation. We obtain lodging tax information from the Chamber of Commerce. Because lodging taxes are collected monthly, not weekly, it can be difficult to sort out the impact of the Festival itself, but year-over-year trends indicate a long-range positive impact.","Measurable outcomes were: - To maintain or increase artist participation - To engage the public in the artists’ work - To create an atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork - To be family-friendly - To provide rewarding experiences for audiences and increase appreciation for the arts - To provide participants with opportunities for personal growth as artists - To draw visitors to Ely to strengthen the local winter tourism industry Forty-five artists participated this year, which is down from the 2018 total of 53 snow carvers. There were 16 sculptures in the park, and seven more at Fortune Bay, the Grand Ely Lodge, the Front Porch (EWF headquarters), Art and Soul Gallery, and Veterans on the Lake resort. On the morning of Feb. 9, volunteers interviewed 51 people attending the initial days of the Winter Festival in Whiteside Park. Fifteen of these survey respondents reported that they “did talk with the sculptors,” and learned about the tools and techniques, how carvers grid a sculpture, how they develop their concepts, and how the snow varies from year to year and with the temperature. This indicates a high degree of engagement by the public. Twenty-eight of the people surveyed resided in Ely. Twenty-three people resided outside of Ely in California, Wisconsin, and cities across the state of Minnesota. Adventure Inn reported that they had “pretty much a no vacancy and reservations came in starting at the end of December. Many happy guests as winter was perfect this year.” Anecdotally, we have heard reports that the number of visitors may have been down in 2019 due to bad weather in the Twin Cities, but we do not have a way to measure overall attendance. EWF surveyed Symposium artists and learned that 89% of carvers felt welcomed and supported by the other artists, while 81% felt they had time to meet and connect with other carvers. Based on these results, we believe this year’s festival met all the goals except maintaining or increasing artist participation.","Achieved most of the proposed outcomes",14126,"Other,local or private",18470,1446,,,"Ely Winter Festival","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Rural and Community Art Project Grant",,"2019 Ely Winter Festival.",2018-09-01,2019-03-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Linda,Ganister,"Ely Winter Festival","423 Sheridan St E Ste 2",Ely,MN,55731,"(218) 365-7669 ",linda@elywinterfestival.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Arrowhead Regional Arts Council",,"St. Louis, Lake",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/rural-and-community-art-project-grant-53,"Tara Makinen: Executive Director of Itasca Orchestra and Strings, musician; Tammy Mattonen: visual artist, co-founder of Crescendo Youth Orchestra; Johnnie Hyde: choreographer and dance teacher, publisher; Ariana Daniel: mixed media artist, arts instructor; Keiko Williams: musician, Executive Director at Donald G.

Group practices will be held on a daily basis throughout the week for a Symphonia (less experienced players alongside professionals) and for the adult performing group. Also, throughout the week, sectionals will be held daily for each string category, e.g. first violin, second violin, viola, and lower strings sections. Sectionals will be led by the guest artists. Individual practice is expected. The week culminates in a concert performance open to the public. Tangible outcomes will be measured by number of participants attending as well size of audience. Area residents and tourists, as audience, will have the opportunity to hear a live orchestral performance of major string works. Local musicians, after a week of intense rehearsal and mentorship will improve their skills and creative thinking. The project will be evaluated by the number of camp participants, the size of the audience at the performance, as well as comments from the audience at the final performance at the end of the week. We project that we will have standing room-only at our final concert at the end of the week. It is anticipated that the musicians will be excited to perform and this special feeling will lead to rejuvenation for the 2017-18 season.

All participants were extremely enthusiastic and asked to come back next year. The audience was very appreciative of the final concert, with standing ovations, plus a special standing ovation for an Elegy with solo violin that was written by two of the participants to their Mom and Dad who passed away during the past year.

Measurable project outcomes are 80 or more adult artists, 80 or more student artists, 400 or more pieces of art on display, 40 or more participating merchants offering window display space, and art sales of $3,000 or more. Over the years, we hope the Ely ArtWalk will help strengthen the winter tourism economy and provide more opportunities for artists to live and work in the Ely area. Indicators of success will include growing lodging taxes collected in February, positive feedback from the merchants who provide display space, growing sales by artists during the event, and increasing numbers of artists participating each year. The Ely ArtWalk organizing committee routinely tracks the number of adult and youth artists, the number of artworks on display, the number of participating merchants, and total sales. It also conducts surveys of participating artists and merchants each year at the close of the event to collect feedback on several measures of satisfaction. Artist feedback is incorporated in the planning process for future events. Lodging tax collections are tracked and provided by the Ely Chamber of Commerce.","Measurable project outcomes were 90 or more adult artists, 80 or more student artists, 400 or more pieces of art on display, 40 or more participating merchants offering window display space, and art sales of $3,000 or more. Sixty-one individual adult artists participated this year, plus two group displays from Heart of the Woods Quilters and the Ely Photo Collaborative. This fell short of the 90 we had hoped to showcase. The number of participants has leveled off over time, as new artists join but other artists stop participating. Many of our participants work on their art part-time or occasionally, and do not have enough new pieces to show every year. The fact that we had so many new artists show that our event is healthy and meeting a need. We did succeed in having more than 400 pieces of art on display. There were easily more than 80 students participating in group shows from the schools, community education, and a local arts supply store. Forty-two merchants provided display space in their windows, meeting our measurable outcome.

These are the measurable short-range outcomes: -To place at least 16 snow sculptures in Whiteside Park. -To engage the public in the artists’ work. -To create an atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork. -To be family-friendly. These are the longer–range outcomes: -To draw visitors to Ely to strengthen the local winter tourism industry. -To provide participants with opportunities for personal growth as artists. -To provide rewarding experiences for audiences and increase appreciation for the arts. The number of snow sculptures is easily counted, and the degree of engagement with the public is easily observed by Ely Winter Festival board members who will be in the park throughout the time when the carving is taking place. We will sponsor several group meals that are attended by artists and board members, and we will solicit feedback from artists informally at those events. Additionally, we will evaluate our success by soliciting feedback from other arts organizations (e.g., Northern Lakes Arts Association, Ely ArtWalk, Greenstone Committee), the business community, and the general public. The first board meeting following the completion of the Festival is always open to the public for the express purpose of evaluation. We obtain lodging tax information from the Chamber of Commerce. Because lodging taxes are collected monthly, not weekly, it can be difficult to sort out the impact of the Festival itself, but year-over-year trends indicate a long-range positive impact.","These were the measurable short-range outcomes: To place at least 16 snow sculptures in Whiteside Park. To engage the public in the artists' work. To create an atmosphere for collaboration and teamwork. To be family-friendly. There were 16 snow sculptures in Whiteside Park, and another at the Headquarters operation. The public was clearly engaged in the artists' work, as we could see from the number of people in the park watching them carve. We sponsored several group social events for carvers, and received positive feedback on their ability to collaborate with each other. All sculptures were judged to be family friendly. These were the longerûrange outcomes: To draw visitors to Ely to strengthen the local winter tourism industry. To provide participants with opportunities for personal growth as artists.

Two reservoirs in the St. Louis River watershed where dioxins in bed sediments are a concern are Thomson and Scanlon Reservoirs near Cloquet, Minnesota. A history of industrial-waste-water discharges associated mainly with the municipal discharges, building materials manufacturing, and paper manufacturing has resulted in the accumulation of dioxins in the reservoir bed sediments. Knowledge of the bed-sediment characteristics, such as its composition and thicknesses, is needed to develop an effective remediation plan for the reservoir bed sediments. To address this issue, the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) and MPCA are undertaking a cooperative project to characterize the bed-sediment lithology, in particular sediment compositions and thicknesses, in Thomson and Scanlon Reservoir. Results from the project will be used by MPCA to design an effective remediation plan for the in-situ treatment of the dioxin-bearing sediments in the reservoirs.

DU engineers will survey and design wetland restorations, and contract with private sector firms for restoration construction and earth moving work. ",,"This Phase 6 of Ducks Unlimited's prairie land acquisition/protection program in Minnesota acquired and restored land with drained wetlands adjacent to existing public lands and shallow lakes for inclusion in the Minnesota DNR’s state Wildlife Management Area (WMA) system. DU focuses on the acquisition and restoration of lands with restorable wetlands and prairie adjacent to existing WMAs to create functioning prairie-wetland habitat complexes for wildlife and public use. This work addresses the habitat goals in Minnesota's Long-range Duck Recovery Plan, Minnesota’s Prairie Conservation Plan, and the North American Waterfowl Management Plan. This work is time- sensitive because farmland adjacent to state WMAs is rarely offered for sale for conservation, and tracts are only available for a short time. DU worked in close partnership with the Minnesota DNR Section of Wildlife to identify land tracts for sale of importance to DNR and of significance to wildlife, once restored and protected. DU then hired professional licensed consultant appraisers to determine fair market land value, and purchased land from willing sellers private landowners. In six of eight cases, DU secure bargain sale purchase donations totaling $56,832, and paid full appraised value for the other two parcels. In each case, DU provided written communication to county boards informing them of our land purchase plans at least 30 days before closing, and appeared before two county boards and one township board to further explain and discuss our conservation work. No formal objections were made, and all concerns resolved. Following acquisition, DU professional biologists and engineers worked closely with DNR field staff to plan and implement both robust prairie and wetland restorations, including diverse native forb/grass seed plantings and complex wetland restorations that required extensive drainage system modification and expensive sediment removal to restore functioning wetlands for prairie wildlife, especially on Indian Lake WMA in Sibley County, Tyler and Discors WMA in Lincoln County, and Goose Prairie WMA in Clay County. Private contractors were selected to perform restoration earth moving work to restore wetland hydrology, remove drainage tile and sediment, and invasive trees. A combination of private contractors and DNR field staff seeded uplands back to native prairie grasslands with abundant pollinator forbs. Each of the eight land tracts has been successfully transferred into the Minnesota DNR’s WMA system, and are fully open to public use, including hunting. This work was important because Minnesota has lost 90% of our prairie wetlands to drainage and 99% of our prairie uplands to cultivation. Acquisition and restoration of small wetlands and prairie is critically needed here, especially for breeding waterfowl in the Prairie Pothole Region of SW Minnesota where DU is focused. The few remaining prairie wetlands and shallow lakes contained within state WMAs or federal Waterfowl Production Areas rarely provide optimal wildlife habitat due to their small, fragmented size and isolated juxtaposition. Acquisition/restoration drained wetlands and cultivated prairie adjacent to existing public lands and public waters helps create functioning prairie-wetland complexes of habitat for wildlife that are open to public hunting too.

For the land acquisition project, the District worked with a willing landowner and entered into an option agreement to purchase the property. Once the option was signed, the District completed a survey and an appraisal of the property. The District had to have an appraisal review being that it was over the $500,000 threshold. The District then negotiated with the landowner an acceptable offer, executed the purchase agreement, and completed final closing requirements. The District closed on the property in 2020. This property included 80 acres of row-crop farm ground that the District planted into natives. Upcoming work for this site includes wetland restoration work that will be funded in a later phase of the Habitat Restoration Program. The restoration and enhancement projects in the Phase VI list include the IC&E Enhancement, the Headwaters Streambank Restoration and the Vandegrift Wetland Restoration. The IC&E Project partnered with the USFWS to seed fallow agricultural ground into native grasses and flowers. The District worked with the USFWS to source native origin seed and get the ground seeded prior to wetland restoration work. This project expands current restored parcels owned by the USFWS and will benefit pollinators, such as the rusty patched bumblebee, and songbirds. The Vandegrift Wetland Restoration was completed on a property that was purchased in Phase 4 of the Habitat Restoration Program. The District, following procurement procedures, hired a contractor to implement a wetland restoration. This restoration reconnected a historic floodplain that was disconnected from Wedge Creek when the railroad came through. The District worked with the DNR and neighboring landowners to complete this restoration. Project benefits include increased use days for waterfowl, reduced competition for feeding and nesting sites as well as improved habitat for the threatened Marsh Wren. The Headwaters Streambank was a project that the District partnered with the DNR to implement site specific habitat features in the Shell Rock River. Following procurement procedures, the District worked with DNR's engineers and river specialists to design and construct habitat features all along the Headwaters Aquatic Management Area.

While volunteers are still in the process of culling excess items from overcrowded exhibits and storing them in archival quality containers, our short term goal of re-housing improperly stored collections into archival quality containers is complete. Removal of additional excess items from exhibits will continue during the off-season this winter. Our intermediate goal of doing a complete inventory is well under way. The additional industrial shelving from Menards has increased that type of shelving storage space at the museum by 33%. WCHS has realized that having this additional storage shelving space as well as the archival quality containers has facilitated an inventory process which has been extremely efficient. The most positive outcome is that all of the items which were previously improperly stored have been now been placed in archival quality containers, inventoried, and cross-referenced. Completing the inventory has also had some unexpected surprises. For whatever reason, previous volunteers had ""tucked"" away some small treasures in the most of unlikely places. During the inventory process a volunteer came across an extremely small religious primer or catechesis book. Inside the front cover was the penciled autograph C. P. Ingalls. After cross-referencing the signature, it was discovered that the elementary text most probably belonged to the real patriarchal character from ""Little House on the Prairie"" fame. Lastly, the long term goal of ensuring that the collections held at the Wabasha County Historical Society Museum in Reads Landing are now safe and secure has become a reality. There are now hundreds of items, both artifacts and archival, which will be available for research and exhibit for many decades into the future.",,3,"Available upon request.

These plantings will consist of native perennials, trees, and shrubs where practical. In addition to the riparian plantings, this project will include fence exclusions for cattle and heavy use protections at cattle crossings in streams and ditches. The project will restore 10% of the riparian areas identified on the resource assessment and inventory maps developed for the WRAPS Report. A total of 41 Best Management Practices (BMPs) will be implemented, reducing phosphorus loading in the watershed by an estimated 1,230 pounds per year, which is a 6% reduction toward the goal of 19,050 pounds per year. The soil loss reductions from these BMPs will result in an estimated 123 tons per year, which is a 67% reduction from the reduction goal of 184 tons per year of stream bank erosion. These reductions of phosphorus and sediment in the Snake River Watershed and the St. Croix River Basin are consistent with the St. Croix Basin Total Maximum Daily Load goal of 20% reduction of phosphorus by the year 2020.

This includes over 7 miles of stream frontage. Three new Wildlife Management Areas (WMAs) were created around the fee acquisitions, opening up 1,505 acres of habitat to public recreation. Restoration or enhancement work was completed on 225 acres of bluff prairies and forests, much of it on lands protected through this program. ",,"In it's proposal, this project identified three primary components: 1) fee title acquisition of priority parcels, 2) restoration and enhancement of prairie and forest habitat in important complexes of protected habitat, and 3) the strategic protection of high-quality habitat on private lands through the acquisition of conservation easements. Work done using this appropriation accomplished all three of those objectives. The Nature Conservancy used funds from this appropriation in acquiring 1,505 acres of land in fee from three landowners. These acquisition have all been transferred to the MN DNR Division of Fish and Wildlife, creating three new management units know as 7 Springs, Rush Creek Woods, and Choice Wildlife Management Area (WMA). This new public land protects over 7 miles of trout stream frontage, along with important forest and bluff prairie habitat. TNC worked closely with DNR Wildlife in prioritizing and acquiring all three of these units, and performing important restoration and enhancement work after acquisition. The size and cost of these acquisitions and the time frames provided by the sellers, it was necessary for the Conservancy to use $2,106,000 of private funds to complete the largest acquisition.  Restoration and enhancement through this appropriation focused primarily on projects on acquired tracts, where TNC restored 44 acres of forest and enhanced 100 acres of forest and 81 acres of prairie. TNC worked with DNR staff, Conservation Corps MN, and local contractors to remove encroaching brush from large bluff prairies and oak savanna on Choice and Rush Creek Woods WMAs. We also treated invasive species in fire-dependent oak woods surrounding prairie areas, allowing prescribed fire in the future to manage larger areas and maintain the diverse transition zone that includes prairie, savanna and oak forest. One burn has already occurred at Rush Creek Woods, and another is planned for Choice WMA this spring to follow up on these enhancement projects. Several floodplain crop fields included on Choice WMA were restored to mesic hardwood forests. These fields were planted through direct seeding in order to provide the best chance of having sufficient seedlings survive the expected impacts of deer browsing.  The Minnesota Land Trust (MLT) used funds from this appropriation to acquire conservation easements from three landowners, totaling 630 acres. These protected acres include dry bluff prairie, oak savanna and woodlands, and mesic hardwood forests. A mile and a half of undeveloped shoreline was also protected along designated trout streams and tributaries. One easement in particular, East Indian Creek, was the key final piece to solidifying a protected corridor running from McCarthy WMA all the way through to Whitewater WMA, linking together over 28,000 acres of protected land.  MLT strategically concentrated its land protection activities on high priority upland habitats, including bluff prairies, forests, savanna and high quality trout streams. MLT targeted private lands that helped fill gaps in the existing protected land framework, contained the highest-quality habitat, and provided the greatest leverage to the state. The Land Trust sought donated easement value in these areas whenever possible but purchased easements that help complete key complexes as necessary. This was the first grant in Southeast Minnesota where MLT transitioned to a competitive, market-based approach to identifying and securing conservation easements. This approach proved to be effective, leveraging $138,800, or 14% of MLT's total appropriation. Working closely with partners was key to the success of this program. Both TNC and MLT worked with other local stakeholders including Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs), DNR staff from multiple agencies, local contractors, and landowners in identifying opportunities, prioritizing projects, and completing them effectively. The collaboration built through this effort continues to benefit ongoing work funded through LSOHC and helps inform other conservation initiatives, such as local water planning and habitat monitoring carried out by other entities. TNC and MLT are committed to staying engaged in Southeast Minnesota and continuing the successful work of this partnership.

To protect habitat, program partners worked collaboratively with DNR and Soil and Water Conservation District partners to identify priority parcels and contact landowners to discover and cultivate potential projects. Program partners also conducted direct outreach to landowners; for fee acquisition projects local real estate listings were monitored. Habitat restoration and enhancement sites were identified and prioritized in partnership with private landowners (for conservation easements) and DNR land managers (for fee acquisitions), with whom we worked collaboratively to develop project specifications. Enhancement projects in this phase primarily focused on brush management of bluff prairies where invasive shrubs like buckthorn and honeysuckle threaten the success of recent restorations. Prescribed goat grazing was the main tactic used on these sites, where the steep slopes make mechanical treatment impossible and hand treatment difficult and costly. This work was carried out by local contractors who managed goat herds through a rotation of paddocks at each site throughout multiple growing seasons. The Rush Creek fee acquisition parcel completed by TNC included several structures which required demolition to be transferred to MN DNR. TNC contracted with an environmental services company to inventory all potential hazardous materials in the buildings, and then hired a construction firm to demolish the buildings and properly dispose of all potentially hazardous waste.

",,,"General Fund ",410700,,,0.4,DNR,"State Government","This project will protect and enhance high priority habitat in fee for the Richard J. Dorer Memorial Forest in southeast Minnesota. This will include enhancing mixed deciduous forest lands through silvicultural practices and control of invasive species. The project will also provide additional opportunities for hunting in an area of the state where public hunting opportunities are limited. All projects will be done in accordance with the state forest land asset plans, RJ Dorer State Forest Plan and the SE MN Driftless Project Map. ",,"Working collaboratively with staff from DNR’s Wildlife and Ecological sections, and local conservation partners, DNR Forestry staff targeted acquisition opportunities in the Richard J. Dorer State Forest that best aligned with forest management objectives and DNR land acquisition goals. Parcels were selected from area land asset management plans, with priority focus on those that improved public access to state lands, consolidated fragmented ownership boundaries, and provided protection of critical forest habitats. Permanent protection of these parcels is more important now than ever, as they connect to larger forest habitat complexes, and provide a crucial buffer between existing forestlands and the increasing development pressures on adjacent agricultural lands. Although we were successful in acquiring over 100 acres of important forest habitat, this amounted to only a third of the lands we had sought to protect in this project. In total three new parcels were added to the Richard J. Dorer State Forest system, providing a variety of benefits as described briefly below: RJD Jefferson 6, Houston County – Acquired 40 acres of high quality mesic hardwood forest habitat; including a vulnerable dry bedrock bluff prairie outcrop that provides crucial habitat for a state listed threatened species of rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus). Protection of this parcel helps provide an important buffer to adjacent agricultural lands, and helps mitigate water quality issues from runoff entering Winnebago Creek, a designated trout stream, less than a mile down slope. RJD Arendahl, Fillmore County – Acquired 37 acres of valuable lowland hardwoods and forested wetlands situated below steep talus slopes in the Root River catchment basin. Protection of this site is important, as it includes a portion of a rare native plant community (southern dry talus cliff) that is ranked critically imperiled statewide (S1), and provides important habitat for many species of greatest conservation need. Acquiring this parcel also helps improve public access to another 360 acres of state forest land nearby along Torkerlson Creek (a designated trout stream). RJD Holt 2, Fillmore County – Acquired 28 acres of critically imperiled rare native plant communities (S1 and S2); including dry southern talus bluffs, and a valuable wet mesic blue beech forest along a seasonal tributary to the Diamond Creek (a designated trout stream). These forestlands provide important habitat for several state listed species; including eastern spotted skunk, timber rattlesnake, and the western prairie fringed orchid. The northern portion of this parcel sits adjacent to commercial agricultural lands, and had been managed as a buffer through the CRP program. Forest restoration efforts are underway to further enhance the ecological integrity of this area.

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.

Contact:grants@mnhs.org","We can approach our metrics by considering our to-date performance on; (1) short term, (2) intermediate and (3) long term goals. To an extent the goals set forth for this project reflect our continued involvement with the interpretive partners. However, there is a great deal of mutual benefit from continued involvement with the township governments as they are the caretakers of our official rural heritage. 1.We set three short term goals; (a) a federated collections inventory, (b) visibility and (c) capacity. a.The inventory is already proving valuable to several of the organizations. The sPs and OHSM are planning Legacy Grants to process portions of their collection. The inventory, along with minimal information from our experience, tells them nearly exactly how much labor the project will require. We were also able to use the inventory to locate numerous materials essential to completing both the exhibition and programming of this project. Additional opportunities have also been gleaned through dialogue. b.To date this project has yielded two feature newspaper stories, a story in an area magazine and reports in the newsletters of the partners. This has cross pollinated and expanded our constituencies, which benefits all partners. We anticipate this will magnify as we are now in the construction phase of the exhibition and firming up the planning for a selection of the recommended community events. With the exhibition deployed at six locations throughout the county, the visibility and visitation for all involved is certain to continue to increase. c.The project has increased the capacity of many of the interpretive partners. This has particularly been true for the smaller organizations that are dependent exclusively on volunteers : having access to paid professionals. Through our partnership we have assisted with numerous projects and planning meetings. Capacity for the SCHS should have probably been considered an intermediate or long term goal, however. While capacity has already been increased, it is probable that our involvement with the partners will continue to grow access to a much greater pool of talent. 2.We set two intermediate goals; (a) collections strategy and (b) sharing knowledge, skills and resources. a.The inventory has allowed the SCHS to begin more complete analysis of collections that may be deaccessioned. We are however waiting to attend the spring session of MAHLM which is hosting a presentation on deaccessioning before we begin casting off portions of our collection. For other partners, discussion of collections strategy has become an analog to review overall function of the group. This growth has just begun and is exciting for us. b.This benefit has largely been enjoyed by the smaller partners who have gained access to professional staff to assist with their projects or advise on planning. And this arrangement furthers the SCHS mission. By assisting these organizations we are directly impacting the preservation of Steele County History. Additionally, the SCHS anticipates that this will pay dividends in the long term transition : connecting us with more people : allowing greater partnership : connecting us with more people. 3.We set one long term goal, the building of enduring relationships. Long term goals should reflect consistent and continued effort. In this case we have defined success based on continued meetings/aid after the project ends. While we cannot predict the future, we are in a place for success. We are currently working directly with several of the organizations on a monthly basis. These are organizations we previously talked to, maybe, annually. With regards to our township partners, we will continue to attend the annual township association meeting as well as attending one meeting for each township annually. Additionally, we hold one collections workshop each year and the townships will receive an invitation, gratis. If this formula is followed, we will achieve our goal and will stay plugged into the heartbeat of rural Steele County.",,,"Available upon request, grants@mnhs.org",94816,,"Bev Falteysek, Kaye Fransen, Jerry Ganfield, Joanne Giga, Mike Jensen, Kirby Knutson, Patty Jessop, Jerry Lewison, Renee Lowery, Linda Shaw, Paul Swenson, Brad Vettrus, David Wavrin, Diane Wilson, Marilyn Witzel",0.26,"Steele County Historical Society","Non-Profit Business/Entity","To form a partnership in order to provide services to, and help coordinate preservation of historic resources for, the various historical organizations around Steele County.",,"Partners: Steele County Historical Society, Minnesota State Public School Orphanage Museum, Owatonna High School Museum, Little Theater of Owatonna, Ellendale Area Heritage Society, Medford Historical League This partnership of Steele County history organizations will commemorate the centennial of the entrance of the United States into the Great War (World War I).

Inventories assessing bank conditions were completed along 13.3 miles of the Mississippi River from the Coon Rapids Dam to Anoka County's western edge. These inventories identified 12,569 linear feet of river bank with severe to very severe erosion. Cumulatively, these sites contribute 10,368 tons of sediment annually to the river. Thanks to a FY 2017 Clean Water Fund grant we have begun to address active bank erosion throughout this stretch of river. A targeted mailing to 60 landowners of properties with severe erosion resulted in interest from over 30 landowners. Site visits confirmed the majority of properties need assistance with bank stabilization. The FY 2017 funding is estimated to assist up to five properties. Therefore, both significant stretches of erosion and landowner interest remain, warranting the pursuit of additional funding. We seek to continue the momentum created with the FY 2017 funds and are requesting funds to assist up to five additional properties with severely eroding river banks. Project sites will be prioritized and selected based on severity of erosion, accessibility to the site, and proximity to other stabilization projects. This project will stabilize approximately 500 linear feet of Mississippi River bank. The project designs will use bioengineering techniques whenever possible to create thriving near-shore habitat, naturalize the riparian zone, and complement the recently updated Mississippi River Corridor Critical Area (MRCCA) rules. This project will result in the reduction of up to 2,000,000 lbs-TSS and 1,000 lbs-TP over the ten-year lifespan of the projects.

The measurable outcomes of this technological update include a clearer, more accurately focused video because of the monitor's high-resolution daylight viewable screen and an increased level of consistency between scenes within a project because of the color accurate screen and exposure tools the monitor provides. Upon completion of my first project with the monitor, I will use a variety of methods to measure the outcomes and impacts of its use. First, I will view the daily footage and check to see if the focusing ability and accuracy has improved. There are specific times when I struggle with focusing and I will see if I was able to keep better focus in those situations because of the quality of the screen. The result will be more usable footage because of the increased frequency in which the subject is in focus. Secondly, I will bring the footage into DaVinci Resolve and view the footage while monitoring with an RGB (Red Green Blue) parade waveform.

One of the topics we studied was hand engraving and carving, an art that goes back (on metal) to the 1st Millennium B.C.E. Although it is a time-consuming process, I loved it. The finished pieces can be quite beautiful, but I also became enamored with the history of engraving, the origins of which can be traced back to the invention of the printing process. The tools are also unique and wonderful; they have not changed in 2000 years. The points themselves can be studied, as small variations in a point can lead to dramatic differences in the finished piece. I would like to buy a power-assisted hand engraver kit that would let me hand engrave and carve without the physical toll and time needed to do classic hand engraving and carving. I have a combination of tendinitis and elbow problems, and the kit would allow me to develop my work for many years to come. I intend for the art of engraving to be a major part of my jewelry-making repertoire. The power-assisted engraver will allow this to happen, will allow me to explore my artistic vision without restrictions. Therefore, if I'm still engraving years down the road, then that will mean the engraver did its job, and allowed me to continue creatively exploring this wonderful discipline in spite of some physical limitations.","I intended for the art of engraving to be a major part of my jewelry-making repertoire.

A dedicated central dust collector is designed to create suction moving large volumes of air that when connected to a woodworking tool, removes dust and chips as wood is cut or shaped. Without adequate dust removal, chips and dust may foul a blade or cutter resulting in unsafe operating conditions, or debris may accumulate in the workspace creating a safety hazard. Prolonged exposure to airborne wood dust has negative consequences for the respiratory system and has been linked to certain cancers. I would like to keep my shop a clean, safe space as I build banjos and an improved dust collection system is a key component to a building a better banjo and a healthier banjo maker. I will consider this project successful upon installation of a central dust collector. Building a banjo is a reductive process. Large pieces of wood are sawed, glued, resawn, carved, sanded and shaped with a myriad of tools that produce as a waste product large quantities of dust and woodchips. Without a method to collect this waste, sawdust ends up on the shop floor, in machinery, on the builder and everywhere else. My shop is located in the basement of my home and I often end up tracking sawdust throughout the house despite my best efforts. A central dust collector with the capacity necessary to collect dust from my tablesaw, bandsaw, planer and jointer will reduce the amount of unwanted sawdust in my shop. Upon installation of the collector I will evaluate the dust removal efficacy by machine and also the decrease in dust in the shop. Additionally, I will evaluate the time saving and quality improvement in my banjo building as a result of a more pleasant work environment.","Dust collection in shop has been much improved.

Our current 40 year old equipment takes a minimum of 4 hours to trim a slab of stone to size, grind it to shape, drill holes, and polish it. Speed is limited by the RPMs we can achieve in the current setup without exacerbating the amount of wobble inherent in the old technology. Even then, the quality is only ""fair"" to ""good"" (a subjective assessment). Our current equipment was hand-built with external electric motors driving exposed pulleys to turn the lap and saw, with poor coolant control, making them inaccurate and unsafe. Modern equipment would be safer, would allow us to complete a piece in half of that time, and increase quality to ""excellent"" (again, a subjective assessment). It will also reduce incidences of loss - projects that must scrapped and begun anew. While it is difficult to measure artistic productivity because each piece is unique, and different stones cut and polish at different rates according to the Mohs Hardness Scale, we will quantify the number of pieces produced per hour during the first 6 months of equipment use in order to provide a measurable outcome of productivity. We will photograph pieces and rate their quality for the final report, if required.","We purchased all of the equipment approved by the grant by 9/8/18. All was put into service.

I also intend to upgrade the intel processor and memory core from standard in order to assist in running my current drafting and editing programs more efficiently. This equipment upgrade would allow me to update my current drafting programs and eventually allow me to purchase the design software programs considered standard in the theater industry. My current laptop is inefficient due to aging hardware, slow processors, a low level of RAM, and a smaller display. The improvement in equipment would significantly impact my ability to be a more productive Scenic Designer and will also allow me to streamline all the major areas of my business: image rendering, 3D modeling, and drafting ground plans and elevations, as well as the management of my business website. These upgrades will also significantly improve my ability to communicate and transfer the elements of my designs to the other members of the production team. I will measure the success and improvements made to my business, with the assistance of the upgraded computer system, by carefully documenting and listing: the significant improvements that I am able to make to my website, the design software I am able to attain and/or update, the quantity of design tasks I am able to complete for each theatrical production I design, as well as the reach of their estimated audiences.","The new computer aided in my design process for the following productions put on by The Duluth Playhouse: - Guys And Dolls Jr. performed 5 shows on the Depot stage this June, reaching approximately 1,000 parents, grandparents and other children. This show was one of two junior summer theatre camps put on by the Duluth Playhouse Children's Theatre. - Peter Pan Jr. performed on the Depot stage for 5 performances this July, reaching approximately 1,000 parents, grandparents and other children. This show was the second of two junior summer theatre camps. - Toxic Avenger performed in the Underground Theatre for 3 weekends. In total this show was viewed by approximately 1200 adults, young adults and teenagers. - Dr. Dolittle opens October 25th, 2018 on the Depot stage and will perform for two weekends. Although the end of the allotted grant period ends before the closing of this show, the new computer aided me greatly in my scenic design. With the scheduled evening, weekend and school matinee performances approximately 1500-2000 parents, students, teachers, grandparents and siblings will see this production. - The computer also aided me in communications, scheduling, planning, and gathering research imagery for an exhibit I installed at the Red River Zoo in Fargo in July, as well as an additional exhibit at the Judy Garland Museum in Grand Rapids, MN in September.

My goal is to get ten four to five star (out of five) wildlife images on that trip. Within a year, have a wildlife portfolio of 20 to 30 unique, three to five star images, and to add this to my website. As a gauge, I take about 10 images a year that I consider five star. My current wildlife shots show animals in their environments. One of the reasons for that is the lack of a super telephoto lens. This grant funding will allow this portfolio to include close up images of the animals. I'll be able to get these images while keeping myself and the animals safe. Additionally, I'll use the lens to photograph the full moon rise behind the Grand Marais lighthouse for three months. I plan to use these images to support my new Shoot the Moon photography workshops. They will be used on my website and in the instructional slideshow.Because my measurable outcomes are based on numbers, the method of evaluating the outcomes will be to see if I achieve those numbers. The first goal is to get ten four or five star (out of five) wildlife shots on a December trip to the Badlands National Park. I will achieve that goal if I get ten shots of that caliber. At the end of the first year of owning the lens, I'll measure my wildlife portfolio to see if I have 20 to 30 three to five star images. The goal also requires me to add the portfolio to my website. I'm including in work samples my current wildlife style. The new look I'm trying for is close ups of animal. I'll have achieved my goal if the portfolio includes 60% of close ups of animals and 40% of animals in their environment. The final goal is measured by the number of times I shoot the moon behind the lighthouse, and how much larger it appears in the photos vs. my current shorter lenses. The goal is achieved when the images are added to my slideshow and website.","When I visited the Badlands, my goal was ten 4- to 5-star wildlife shots. The conditions weren't favorable, so I ended up with three 4-star wildlife shots. I have not owned the lens for a year, so I haven't been able to measure whether or not I have 20 to 30 three to five star wildlife images. I'm up to six 3- to 5-star wildlife images. For the Grand Marais lighthouse shots with the full moon, the conditions haven't been favorable. I managed to get the full moon at Split Rock. I've use the lens more often than I imagined that I would. Instead of just using it for wildlife, I've used it for landscape. I've used it to capture over 1,000 images that I considered good enough to keep in my catalog. Also, without this lens I wouldn't have been able to capture a once-in-a-lifetime shot of two ships going under the Duluth lift bridge with Bentleyville in the foreground.

Normal lenses do not allow perspective control and can alter the shape and direction objects appear when they are placed close to the edge of the frame.

High quality photographs of my work will strengthen my artistic professionalism and viability in the art world. Working with quality software to edit and resize those images will help produce a measurably more polished product. I will use a designated work computer during the most productive time of day for business related aspects of my art career. A computer will enhance and broaden my field of exposure to a wider online audience through an active, updated web presence. My work will be organized, tracked and managed through this computer. Other measurable outcomes include consistency in submissions, communicating with customers, and ongoing research. My website receives consistent, daily traffic.

Updating my computer is the first step to ensuring security of files and increased capacity to build these larger compositions. Increasing this capacity improves my ability to respond to the filmmaker's needs and crafting my own artistic vision in a short time frame. The addition of monitors that have a flat frequency response (i.e. no added bass or treble for home use) provides a better palette for sound production of a given project without running into the problem of, for example, too much bass on an instrument discovered after the fact, thus needing to be either reworked or rejected outright for a film project.

I think I will be able to start using the new equipment right away. My first initiative is to start taking online classes to better my drawing tablet skills. I am still adapting to the new format of working with such a tool. Working on a new, fast laptop will help me take these classes during EVERY FREE MOMENT. I can not only start playing around with creating art, but by practicing on show renderings. Every new project I have will offer opportunities to continue this practice. After I have finished the online classes, referencing my book on working in Painter, and practicing. I should be able to execute renderings more quickly, with more ease, and most importantly more professionally. The transition to digital drawings rather than watercolor will be instant. They may not be great at first, but I'm sure I will get the hang of it pretty quickly. If funded, I would be able and willing to commit to digital immediately.","The new technology has already helped me in the following ways: I am able to carry EVERY item I need for my work in a compact bag rather than giant loads of art supplies. The new tools allow me to stay connected and inspired to compile loads of research on the new hard drive. The books I received to learn the software have proven as valuable as the tools to learn new techniques. I am learning the Painter program slowly but surely - and realizing it will change the way I work forever.",,1458,"Other, local or private",2060,,,,"Sasha N.

As a result, a draft outline was available for the first peer review.

This would be measured by conducting research on regional newspapers, secondary sources, and visits to regional and state archives. All of the planned research was conducted. Dr. Talsma Gaul visited all the archival sites noted in the application, with the exception of the Lyon County Historical Society. This was not done because after visiting with the museum staff, it was determined that the Society's archives contained no information on WW1, so the visit was deemed unnecessary. Dr. Talsma Gaul also conducted all of the planned newspaper and secondary source research indicated in the application. The intermediate goal noted in the application was: ""Use resources and information gathered to begin writing an historical essay on local women's activities and contributions during WW1."" The indication of progress on this goal was the writing of three draft chapters of the essay. Dr. Talsma Gaul also completed this part of the project. The long-term goal listed in the application is to publish an historical essay titled ""The Women of Southwest Minnesota and the Great War"" as part of the Society for the Study of Local and Regional History's Rural and Regional Essay Series.

Many of these bacteria and the antibacterial substances ultimately make their way into the waste stream and are mixed together and concentrated at wastewater treatment plants, where they interact and can create further selection for organisms with antibiotic resistance to multiple antibacterial substances resulting in what are commonly known as “super bugs”. If these antibiotic resistant organisms are not entirely removed during the wastewater treatment process, these organisms then are released into the environment where they can eventually affect humans and other species. One antimicrobial substance of particular concern is triclosan, which is present in numerous personal care products, because it has been shown to help select for organisms that show antibiotic resistance not just to triclosan but also to a multitude of other antibiotics.

Our programming has increased significantly in recent years. LOON used to perform one fully staged opera each year. Now, a season includes two fully staged operas, a children's opera tour, a summer concert, and several smaller events throughout the year in pubs, livings rooms, and senior living centers. We have recently taken steps to increase our administrative capacity to support and expand our programming, increasing our General Director's salary, and adding part-time positions for specific tasks. Our goal with this increased capacity is to ensure best experiences for patrons and artists, and to allow our General Director to spend her time less on daily administrative details and more on serving LOON's mission, goals, and strategy as set forth by the Board of Directors. The two new part-time administrative positions that have been created are focused on specific projects or tasks. These include: 1. Assessing publicity (print, social media, tv, radio) opportunities and helping to develop a marketing and publicity strategy. 2. Project Manager/calendar coordinator for the Little LOON tour. 3. Orchestra manager and artist liaison for main stage productions. 4. Box office supervisor and front of house volunteer coordinator. Our goal is as follows: with dedicated attention to these tasks, our General Artistic Director can focus her time on strategic planning, artistic programming, and development. Development work often gets pushed aside for pressing daily tasks (flight and housing arrangements for artists, answering phones, making copies, running the box office, etc.). Our goal is for her to be able to focus on relationships, long-term programming goals, and development, which should result in better efficiency, better ticket sales, more grant applications submitted, more donor relationships established. Essentially,we are freeing her up to do Executive-level work. The addition of Kailyn Spencer (administrative assistant) and Heidi Lord (orchestra manager and artist liaison) will also result in better patron experience, and better experiences for artists and volunteers.

Additional outcomes include: increased efficiencies in accounting procedures and access to additional marketing analytics. Measurable outcomes for Goal 2: an increase in average per concert ticket sales to 225 in Yr 1 and retention of 50% of that increase in Yr 2; an increase in website traffic and social media followers by 100% over the course of the project. Successful implementation of the new ticketing process will assessed through online and written surveys as well as direct follow-up at the concerts with online purchasers. Web sales increases are available through the ticketing platform's real-time sales information.

Increased efficiencies in accounting will measured by the reduction in time spent by Board members analyzing information and preparing reports. Increases in ticket sales and retention rates will be quantified through accounting MM's procedures and increases in online exposure will be assessed through analytics available through the various online platforms (online advertising, Facebook, Twitter, the ticketing app). MM will create audience surveys tailored to gather data about marketing and get in person feedback from after concert receptions and other direct feedback from stakeholders to help in evaluating the success of the visibility/marketing effort.

Our second measurable outcome is to draw at least 10 percent new concertgoers to each concert—an average of 17 individuals who never attended a Matinee Musicale concert until the 2015-2016 or 2016-2017 seasons. Matinee Musicale will evaluate outcomes of Phase 2 of our Marketing/Branding Project by tracking ticket sales for each concert, a process which we currently undertake after each concert. The Matinee Musicale treasurer maintains an Excel spreadsheet mailing/membership list, which is updated during the season ticket sales period, and is also updated after each concert to reflect at-the-door ticket sales. We plan to provide a survey at each concert, with an opportunity to sign up for an email newsletter. This document could ask: “How did you hear about this concert?” “Are you a season ticket holder?” “Is this your first experience at a Matinee Musicale concert?” – to help us determine how well we are reaching potential audience members and aid us in capturing new names. (We may encourage signups by holding a drawing to give away a set of tickets for the next concert, or a music CD by that night’s artist.)

Many of the measurable outcomes can be measured on a yes/no or true/false scale. For example, if the board manual is compiled, the outcome will be met. Some of the measurable outcomes can be counted. For example, growth in orchestra membership from 44 to 48 will be measured by a simple count. Non-board committee participants will be counted. Audience growth will be measured in two ways: by a count of audiences at concerts, and by ticket sales, adjusted for any price changes. Progress toward achieving Charities Review Council certification will be measured by counting the number of standards met at the outset of the project, and counting again at the end of the first and second years of the project. We have not yet assessed our starting point, so it is difficult at this time to know whether we can achieve certification within the two-year timeframe of this project.

The purpose of this project was to edit RAW images of two USS Essex log books into .tif files and transcribe the type-written log book pages into searchable and accessible .pdf files. The 2 log books date from 1.3.1918-12.31.1918 (#60), and 1.1.1919-6.30.1919 (#61). During the image editing process that utilized Graphic Converter software with batch capability and Adobe LightRoom, metadata for each image was recorded in an Excel spreadsheet file, data easily obtained from the image file itself. The resulting .tif files were combined into .pdf files and uploaded to the Internet Archive for free downloading - the files are very large due to the size of the log books, even using compression. The individual .tif files for book 60 total 38 GB (879 files) and book 61 totals 17 GB (417 files). Project transcribers used the .tif files for reference to create transcribed versions of the log books using Miscrosoft Word, following the guidelines set forth in Transcribing Manuscripts: Rules Worked Out by the Minnesota Historical Society. The list of rules that were determined to fit this project and set forth in the grant proposal were followed throughout the transcription process of the two type-written log books. One set of transcriptions was required for this project, agreed upon by MNHS staff Joe Hooever. Project proofreaders proofread the transcriptions, making corrections and annotations where necessary. A final version of each transcribed log book was saved and uploaded to the Internet Archive, free for downloading (see attached files). A list of pertinent tags is connected to the Internet Archive versions of the two log books that includes other US Navy vessels the USS Essex encountered and other keywords that researchers, historians, and geneaologists would find useful. The target for this project - the editing and transcribing of USS Essex Log Books 60 and 61 and their uploading to the Internet Archive to ensure public access - has been achieved.

Specifically the Wellhead Protection Conservation Easement program is targeted to protect drinking water through the Reinvest in Minnesota Program (RIM). In partnership with the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and Soil and Water Conservation Districts, permanent conservation easements are purchased in areas where the vulnerability of the drinking water is designated as high or very high by MDH. In 1986, the Reinvest in Minnesota Resources Act was enacted to restore certain marginal and environmentally sensitive agricultural land to protect soil and water quality and support fish and wildlife habitat. Utilizing the RIM conservation easement program, this program focused on converting land presently in agricultural production to native grasslands and wetlands. Restoring native grasslands within wellhead protection areas improves water quality by providing greater distance between drinking water sources and agricultural chemical use. Changing land use from agricultural production to restored grasslands and wetlands has produced dramatic, measurable improvements in drinking water quality. Lands that are targeted are new or existing USDA Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts with cropping history. The easements funded under this program are permanent, whereas CRP contracts are for 10-15 years. Participating landowners receive a payment to retire land in agricultural production and to establish buffers of native vegetation. The drinking water and wellhead protection initiative compliments other programs, both existing and yet to be developed, over the next 25 years.

",,"Wild rice shoreland encompasses a complex of shallow lakes, rivers, and shallow bays of deeper lakes that support rice and provide some of the most important habitat for wetland-dependent wildlife species in Minnesota. Wild rice habitat is especially important to Minnesota’s migrating and breeding waterfowl and provides Minnesotans with unique recreation opportunities: hunting waterfowl and harvesting the rice itself for food. Wild rice is also spiritually important to Native Americans and is a part of Minnesota’s rich natural and cultural heritage. Historically, wild rice occurred throughout Minnesota and extended into northern Iowa. Wild rice has since been extirpated from most of its southern range due to human impacts including changes to water quality and chemistry, sedimentation, landscape drainage, flow alteration, boat traffic and competition from introduced aquatic invasive species. Today, the heart of the states wild rice acreage falls within this project work area comprised of eight counties Aitkin, Carlton, Cass, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, St. Louis, and Wadena. These counties also account for 70% of harvesting trips for state licensed harvesters. Shallow lakes and rivers in the forest are very susceptible to the impacts of shoreline development. The alteration of shoreline vegetation, construction of impervious surfaces, placement of in-lake structures, and increased boat and water based recreation can result in a reduction in emergent and floating plant abundance; mixing of bottom sediments, increased nutrient loading (including substantial changes in phosphorous) and shoreline erosion. Further, expectations of new shoreline homeowners may conflict with wildlife management strategies designed to maximize wild rice production and improve waterfowl habitat. The impact of development is cumulative, and over time, such changes can severely reduce wild rice production, water quality and waterfowl use of these important water bodies. Beyond public ownership, current shoreline protection on wild rice shoreland is limited to county shoreland ordinances and zoning, and limited conservation efforts by non-governmental organizations. Variances to land use rules aimed at preserving the state’s most valuable resource, our lakes and rivers, are at times allowed. Further, even the most stringent shoreland ordinances still allow for some subdivision and development, which is detrimental to the wild rice shoreland complex. Voluntary, incentive-based conservation protection program options for shoreland landowners are few. Unlike the prairie portion of the state where agency-backed easement options exist for conservation-minded landowners, private land protection options are limited for wild rice shoreland in the forest due to funding constraints. Further, many easement programs are targeted for restoration and not protection.  In the northern forest, there is much less need for restoration, thus this Phase III proposal was again focused on habitat protection. This proposal continued to fill a need for shoreland protection on key water bodies supporting wild rice in the Northern Forest Section. Phase I of this project began with 2012 Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council (LSOHC) funding by providing wild rice lake shoreline landowners with expanded protection options through permanent shoreland conservation easements and, where needed, fee-title acquisition. This successful effort exceeded project goals with 1,200 acres of important shoreland habitat proposed for permanent protection from development including 286 acres of new Wildlife Management Areas.  Phases II was approved in MN Laws 2013 and protected another 1,173 acres through permanent easements.  Utilizing permanent conservation easements and fee-title acquisitions, the Minnesota Board of Water & Soil Resources (BWSR), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources – Section of Wildlife (DNR Wildlife), and the eight local Soil and Water Conservation Districts (SWCDs)  offerd permanent shoreland protection on shallow lakes, rivers and shallow bays producing wild rice. The BWSR’s Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) program acquired 600 acres through permanent conservation easements and DNR Wildlife acquired 285 acres through fee-title acquisition. Through the local SWCD offices, BWSR purchased RIM easements using rates set by BWSR.  Tracts were selected based on the degree to which they help permanently protect all the land around a given wild rice water body.  The BWSR RIM easements were acquired through a sign-up process similar to BWSR’s other easement programs.  SWCD generated landowner applications were reviewed and parcels ranked by the project committee with guidance provided by the ""Wild Rice Shoreland Protection Criteria Sheet"".   Fee-title acquisition was used where land was suitable for public use   Fee-title acquisitions provide public access. Shoreland protection for wild rice lakes and rivers enjoys widespread support from tribal interests, SWCDs, and other habitat conservation partners.   ",2014-07-01,2018-06-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Dan,Steward,"Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources","1601 Minnesota Drive ",Brainerd,MN,56401,"(218) 828-2598",dan.steward@state.mn.us,"Land Acquisition",,,"Aitkin, Carlton, Cass, Crow Wing, Hubbard, Itasca, St. Louis, Wadena","Northern Forest",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/wild-rice-shoreland-protection-phase-iii,,,,

In 1983, an addition expanded the space without harming the original portion of the library. In 2012, a comprehensive site evaluation was completed by a library systems consultant. The evaluation showed that there were several deficits which needed to be addressed. A major item identified was the windows in the Carnegie section of the library. The preservation included re-glazing the glass, scraping and sanding the windows and trim, repairing wood rot, replacing broken panes, priming the sashes, casings, and trims, refurbishing/replacing weather stripping, adjusting the sashes for proper fit and rail alignment, and sealing the jambs. For the restoration portion, this involved custom building exterior wooden storm windows to replace the earlier aluminum replacements, as well as replacing two wooden storms- one that was rotted beyond repair, and one that was a poorly-made replica. A total of 40 interior windows were professionally preserved, and a total of 16 exterior storms were professionally preserved. A total of 24 exterior storms were professionally restored, replacing 22 aluminum storms, 1 original storm that was rotted beyond preservation, and 1 wooden storm that was a poorly-made replica.     The value of this project is in the restoration work on the historic structure ensuring not only its ongoing survival and viability but the preservation of the building in as historically accurate a manner as possible.

This project included habitat enhancement of woodlands and wetlands involving invasive species removal and planting of native species. This project benefits animal species including the pileated woodpecker and the threatened Blanding’s turtle. Primary outcomes include better quality plant communities, reduced fragmentation, and higher functioning wetlands. ",,"Theodore Wirth Regional Park was established more than 100 years ago to protect natural resources. Wirth's total 750 acres consist of wetland, woodland, savanna, shoreline and lake habitats. These habitats provide for a variety of wildlife including mammals, reptiles, amphibians, pollinating insects, fish, and migratory birds within a fully developed urban metro area.  The Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden and Bird Sanctuary, established in 1907 as a public wildflower garden to view Minnesota native plants and as a sanctuary for birds, is found in the southern portion of the park. A  tamarack bog, a wetland plant community that is rare for the southern part of the State, is also found in the southern portion of the park within the project area. The tamarack bog and the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden and Bird Sanctuary provide unique outdoor experiences for urban dwellers. Migratory birds use Wirth Park as a stopover on their migratory route the Mississippi flyway, just three miles to the east. Recently Wirth Park and Minneapolis Chain of Lakes Regional Park were designated an Important Bird Area by Audubon International for this reason.  When Wirth Park was established more than 100 years ago the land was not impacted by non-native invasive plants. Times have changed and Wirth park's oak forest is dominated by common buckthorn. Wetland areas as well have dense stands of both common and glossy buckthorn. Activities funded by the Outdoor Heritage Fund (OHF) included removal and control of invasive species in forest and wetland habitats and enhancement plantings with native plant species.  Since 2005, Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board's (MPRB) Citizen Advisory Committees have consistently listed natural resource enhancements as top priorities for Wirth park and are a key component of the Wirth Park Master Plan.  Contracted work for the grant occurred from 2015-2016 and included saw cutting and forestry mowing of woody invasive species. Control of buckthorn in the oak forest and wetland areas consisted of cutting down large mature buckthorn with a chain or brush saw and treating the stump with herbicide. Due to the density of mature buckthorn in certain areas, the resulting brush resulted in large quantities of cut brush littering the landscape, making these areas impossible to access.  In these situations the brush was chipped and left in place. Brush chipping allows for better access into the area for future control of invasive species and enhancement plantings.   In forested areas where there was low density of large mature buckthorn, forestry mowing was done through contracted services with a forestry brush mower.  Where there were steeper slopes that a forestry mower couldn't safely operate, a brush saw was used. In 2017, the MPRB  tried for the first time goat browsing to control invasive species through contracted services. The goat browsing occurred for three consecutive years (2017-2019) with one annual browsing occurring during the summer (June or July) in two locations in the oak forest.  Forestry mowing, brush sawing and goat browsing all served to control the seeding of woody invasive species. Oriental bittersweet has become an increasingly prevalent non-native invasive species in many park areas.  Oriental bittersweet was first found in Wirth Park by MPRB staff in 2013 and has been reported to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture through eddmaps.org.  It is found in the OHF project area and was part of invasive species control for this project. Control of mature Oriental bittersweet stems, where vines were entangled in the tree canopy, consisted of cutting the stem and treating the stump with an herbicide. Monitoring of the area occurred and any seedlings that sprouted were treated with herbicide to prevent maturation. The wetland areas to the south of Glenwood Avenue are a unique natural resource that are part of a groundwater system which once provided water for the Glenwood Inglewood spring water plant.  There is open water and seepage in this area throughout the  seasons, making work in this area difficult.  Common and glossy buckthorn are prevalent invasive species in this area as well as purple loosestrife. Purple loosestrife control through biological controls has been in place in Wirth park since the 1990s and is working well to control the plant in both the Glenwood wetlands and the wetland edges of Birch pond. Buckthorn removal occurred in the Glenwood wetlands during the winter and early spring months when the ground was more frozen. Buckthorn in these areas was hand cut and treated with an aquatic approved herbicide.  As much brush as possible was chipped and left onsite. Record snowfalls during the winter of 2018-19 and record rainfall in 2019 made this area very difficult to work in. The OHF project received assistance from the Conservation Corps Youth Outdoors (CCMI YO) program. CCMI YO adult and youth crews worked on invasive species control and planting enhancements from 2017 until the close of the grant in June 2019.  Adult crews hand cut mature buckthorn from woodland and wetland areas. The youth program participants helped by hand pulling invasive species and piling brush for later chipping.  Youth program participants also seeded in prairie grasses into areas that will be maintained as oak savanna.   ",2014-07-01,2020-01-30,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Cliff,"Swenson, PLA","Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Board","2117 West River Road N ",Minneapolis,MN,55411,"(612) 230-6466",cswenson@minneapolisparks.org,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,Hennepin,"Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/wirth-park-habitat-enhancements,,,,

The project was constructed in two phases. Phase 1 began in 2018 and was hampered by wet conditions. Phase 1 was completed in 2020. Phase 2 began in 2020 with some clean up in 2021.

The 18 interviews included stories of women with a wide range of political experiences and party affiliations such as township clerk, county attorney, judge, city council, mayor, or behind the scenes committee organizer. The standard requirement was that each had served in an elected position. The common thread among the women interviewed was they loved their job and felt they were making an essential contribution by doing them. Many stressed the importance of the vote. The children of women who served in politics also spoke about how exciting it was for them to accompany their mother to political functions. The narrators also came from a wide range of social backgrounds, from farmers to merchants, country-bred, or townies.

This exhibit, developed in cooperation with the West Central Minnesota Historical Association, tells the story of the first World War through the lens of its effects on West Central Minnesota. In this final step, the research conducted over the past several years was consolidated into one exhibit script. The exhibit was designed, and elements such as placards were produced and installed. Promotional materials were also made up. This exhibit was specifically designed to be adaptable so that it might appear in a variety of spaces. Exhibit elements are engineered to be movable, and the entire exhibit can appear in a relatively small space while still having the room required for wheelchair access. In addition to bringing big-picture historical events to a local level, the WCMHA hopes that this traveling exhibit will foster improved relations between its ten member counties, strengthening them all in their ability to relate Minnesota’s rich history.   ",2017-12-01,2018-12-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Jill,Wohnoutka,"Kandiyohi County Historical Society","610 NE Hwy 71","Willmar MN",MN,56201,320-235-1881,kandhist@msn.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota Historical Society",,"Big Stone, Chippewa, Kandiyohi, Lac qui Parle, Lincoln, Lyon, Redwood, Renville, Swift, Yellow Medicine",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/world-war-i-traveling-exhibit-implementation,,,,

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

Methods used included bird surveys, bird mist netting, insect hand netting, small mammal live trapping, trail cameras, and visual encounter surveys. Monitoring continues on an on-going basis.Project participants have included Zoo volunteers, area college students, boy scout troops, young professional associations, and more. In January 2014, the first public education program will take place.Public awareness of the program has included five presentations, including a Google+ hangout in partnership with Zoo Atlanta as well as presentations at the Minnesota School of Environmental Studies.  Social media pages for the BioDiscovery Project have been launched.Prairie Restoration Measurable OutcomesThe Zoo prairie was successfully developed in 2013. Featured plants included: black-eyed Susan, long-headed coneflower, pale purple coneflower, prairie phlox, spiderwort, prairie smoke, lobelia, pussy toes, fragrant giant hyssop, prairie onion, rattlesnake master, wild bergamot, white prairie clover, purple prairie clover, stiff tickseed, showy penstamon, hoary vervain, blue grama, side-oats grama, prairie June grass, wild Canada rye, and prairie dropseed.In 2013, the Zoo placed graphics adjacent to areas where the visitors congregate as they approach the entrance.  Visitors and zoo education program participants frequently visited the project by stopping to read the information. The signs discuss prairie ecology, certain species of plants and animals in the prairie, the status of today's prairie in Minnesota and the Midwest compared to their historical range, as well as discuss modern prairie conservation and the agencies/NGOs that are most active in this work.Over 169 hours of volunteer time were contributed to the project in 2013. Presentations were given in the field and classroom to the Minnesota Master Naturalist: Prairies and Potholes course, School of Environmental Studies, Great River Chapter of the American Society of Botanical Arts, Zoo staff, and Zoo Board of Directors.
