These areas have seen the greatest decline in upland and wetland habitats.","Pressures from development, industry, and agriculture continue to mount on wildlife habitat within the farmland regions of Minnesota. Despite our collective investments in conservation, many of the agricultural counties in Minnesota are continuing to experience a net loss of wildlife habitat. This unfortunate reality is exacerbated by the conversion of lands expiring out of CRP. In the next five years, Minnesota's agricultural landscape is set to experience a loss of 549,185 acres due to expiration out of CRP. In 2018 alone MN will lose 201,294 acres of CRP that are set to expire. This equates to roughly a 20% loss of our grassland habitat necessary for pheasants, ducks, and the suite of grassland species that call Minnesota home. Now, more than ever, is the time to accelerate our investments in permanently protected high-quality habitat complexes that will protect, sustain, and increase Minnesota’s wildlife populations. Providing public habitat for Minnesotans to hunt, trap, fish and otherwise recreate in the outdoors are urgent needs for Minnesota's growing citizenry. Access to the outdoors is fundamental to ensuring Minnesota’s outdoor heritage is passed on to future generations.PF and our partners will protect (fee acquisition from willing sellers) 1,073 acres of high priority grassland (native prairie if available), wetland, and wildlife habitat as WMAs throughout the pheasant range of Minnesota. PF is striving to protect strategic tracts that build landscape level habitat complexes. Many of the potential projects are additions to existing WMAs which were originally acquired in partnership with MNDNR, local PF chapters, and conservation partners. Projects were developed and selected in conjunction with local and regional DNR staff. All projects will meet standards and requirements for inclusion into the WMA system and DNR Commissioner approval will be received for any project funded under this proposal. In addition to meeting the minimum WMA standards, additional criteria are used to develop the potential project list including: 1) Does the parcel contain habitat restoration potential that will result in an increase in wildlife populations? 2) Does the parcel build upon existing investments in public and private land habitat (landscape scale significance)? 3) Does the parcel contain significant natural communities or will it protect or buffer significant natural communities? 4) Does the parcel have the potential and focus for habitat protection and restoration in the future? 5) Does the parcel provide multiple benefits (recreation, access, water control, water quality, wellhead protection, riparian protection, local community support, etc.)?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.

All acquisitions will occur in the prairie, prairie/forest transition, or metro regions. ","The loss of grassland and wetland habitats in Minnesota is well documented. In the agricultural region of Minnesota over 90% of our wetlands and 99% our prairie grasslands have been converted for other uses. This proposal aims to slow or reverse this downward trend by strategically acquiring and restoring previously converted wetland and grassland habitats to be permanently protected as WPAs. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and their partners have been employing this strategy for over 50-years through the Small Wetlands Acquisition Program (SWAP). This eleventh phase of the WPA acceleration program builds upon past work of the USFWS SWAP as well as the previous ten phases of this effort by strategically acquiring 1,003 acres (241 acres of wetlands and 762 acres of grassland habitat) for the benefit of upland species and recreational opportunities of the public. Strategic properties will be identified by using landscape level planning tools [e.g. Thunderstorm Maps produced by the USFWS’s Habitat and Population Evaluation Team (HAPET)]. Based on HAPET evaluation strategies, modeling predictions can be made on the numbers of nesting waterfowl, grassland nesting birds, and other wildlife the acres impacted by this grant application can produce. In addition to wildlife benefits, the lands acquired and restored through this grant will provide improved water quality, groundwater recharge, and flood abatement benefits. These strategies are well tested and are supported by the greater conservation community 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 USFWS and PF will notify counties prior to the acquisition of lands. Once acquired, the USFWS will make a one-time payment (called a Trust Fund payment) to the county where the property is located. In addition, the USFWS will make annual refuge revenue sharing payments for all fee lands within the respective counties.Additional funding for restoration and development 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. All wetlands, on the properties acquired, will be restored by either surface ditch “plugs"", breaking sub-surface tile lines, or other best practices for wetland restoration. Grasslands will be restored by planting site-appropriate native grasses and forbs following known best practices for the establishment. Grassland restoration on individual tracts may take three to five years, involving one to two years of post-acquisition farming to prepare the site for seeding (e.g. weed management issues, chemical carryover, other site-specific issues).

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).

MVCCA provides access to national and international musical talent in a local setting. Membership in this concert series provides four affordable concerts in Montevideo at a similar cost to what one concert would cost in the metro area, without travel costs or other travel-related constraints. With reciprocity to the three other concert series within 40 miles, there is access to an additional 12 concerts at no additional cost. Complimentary tickets are provided to the area high schools to entice students to attend with the hope of cultivating a life-long love of the performing arts. 9: ""Regional residents gain awareness and appreciation for a variety of artistic disciplines and mediums."" A broad range of live performances is chosen in an attempt to appeal to all cultures. Though musical arts is the primary mission of MVCCA, there are also live performances of dance, magic, and other family-friendly variety shows to broaden appeal. It is our hope that these performances unify our community through an appreciation of musical or performing arts. It is critical to have opportunities where community members of any age can interact and collectively share in an event that enriches our awareness of international talent. At each concert, MVCCA ushers will record the number of attendees that arrive from concert associations in our reciprocity circle in order to gauge the interest level for a particular performance. We will also be tracking the number of free student tickets used at each concert. In addition, audience surveys will be passed out upon entrance to the auditorium. Attendees will be encouraged to complete and hand in during intermission with the incentive of a gift card drawing. Before the second half of the performance begins, one or more surveys will be drawn from the collection and awarded a gift certificate from a local business. The results of the surveys will be documented. For each successive performance in the season, the survey may be adjusted slightly to reflect the type of performance or additional information of interest.","Despite the disappointment of Covid-19 shutting the 2020-2021 concert season down, it was evident by attendance that concert members were willing to wear masks and social distance in order to be able to come together and enjoy the variety of artists' talents that were presented in our 2021-2022 season. It was evident that people of the community look forward to the opportunity of being exposed to artistic talent of this caliber without having to travel miles to a larger city and pay a much higher admission fee. For all the concerts, there were a total of 16 students that attended through the free concert tickets provided at their high school. Student involvement was disappointing despite expanding our free ticket reach to more schools.","Achieved some of the proposed outcomes",16293,"Other,local or private",19643,,"Nicholas Krueger, Keith Olson, Carol Westberg, Carol Grau, Donna Krueger, Beth Hampton, Dan Hampton, Bruce Olson, Ingrid Larson",0.00,"Minnesota Valley Community Concert Association","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project",,"Concert Series 2020-2021",2020-05-01,2022-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Carol,Grau,"Minnesota Valley Community Concert Association","PO Box 493",Montevideo,MN,56265,"(320) 269-6391",cjane56265@yahoo.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Chippewa, Yellow Medicine, Lyon, Swift, Lac qui Parle, Kandiyohi, Lincoln, Anoka, McLeod",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-234,"Jeff Iverson, music, theater, education; Georgette Jones, theater, education, SMAC Board; Maureen Keimig, theater, Michele Sterner, theatre, SMAC Board; Sheila Tabaka, theater, education; John Voit, music, theater, education; Erica Volkir, theater, SMAC Board.","Cheri Buzzeo: theater, music, The Barn Theatre administration, Willmar Main St participant; Lauren Carlson: poetry, film, COMPAS roster artist, Dept. of Public Transformation board; Carisa Clarke: graphic design/web development, arts volunteer, board member DAC of Murray County; Lisa Hill: musician, Crow River Singers, attorney; Greg Jodzio: photography/design, Hutchinson Center for the Arts board, Hutchinson Public Arts Commission; Anna Johanssen: fiber artist, art teacher, Remick Gallery board, president of Windom Women's Investment group, treasurer of Cottonwood County Animal Rescue, officer of Cotton Quilters; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor/director/teacher; David KelseyBassett: visual artist, musician, Hinterland Art Crawl board; Shawn Kinsinger: theater director, actor, musician, Palace Theatre executive director, Green Earth Players vice president, Luverne Street Music board member, Luverne High School Theater artistic director; Kristen Kuipers: musician, private lesson and K-12 classroom music instructor, theater, writing, volunteer with Jackson Center for the Arts; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker; Alison Nelson: art, music, and dance teacher, KMS Community Ed director, Kerkhoven Fire Department Auxiliary fundraiser; Anne O'Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Betsy Pardick: musician, actor, Dept. of Public Transformation committees; Michele Knife Sterner: theater (actor), SMSU Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Louella Voigt: music, fiber art; Blue Mound Area Theatre board; Erica Volkir: performing arts, Pipestone Performing Arts Center board, Pipestone Area Chamber of Commerce and CVB director; John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Mark Wilmes: Lake Benton Opera House board president, actor/director, musician, reporter;",,2

The CAIR project will invite local residents to engage with the arts on a personal level through radically inclusive programming that places the community's needs and active civic participation at the forefront of high-quality artistic collaboration, creation, and exhibition. Residents of Granite Falls who don't necessarily self-identify as artists or art-lovers -- including folks of all ages, women, people of color, our new American community members and our Indigenous Dakota neighbors, and those struggling financially -- will be affected by the deep and intentional inclusivity of the CAIR program and its artistic projects. 2: ""Regional residents experience a change in knowledge, attitude, behavior or condition due to public art, arts festivals or arts events."" Residents will recognize that the arts have the potential to drive community engagement, civic participation, and economic growth, leading to higher quality of life for the entire community. Every resident of Granite Falls has the potential to be affected by this change, from the current decision-makers to the deeply underserved and underrepresented. 3: ""The capacity of those providing arts experiences is increased or strengthened by changing, expanding, or enriching the ways in which they connect to their communities through the arts."" Artists selected as CAIRs will explore the power of collaborative work that's driven by a community's articulated needs. DoPT will continue to nourish the positive feedback loop of hearing a community's voices with equity, supporting practicing artists, and developing creative solutions to complex, long-standing challenges. The immediate effect will be felt by DoPT artists and collaborators, the selected CAIRs, Granite Falls City Staff, and local residents, students, businesses and community groups. However, artists and arts organizations in rural settings across the country have the potential to be affected as our replicable model and CAIR Resource Guide is shared widely. Once the CAIR and other programs are underway, we plan to collect and assess data about their effectiveness under the guidance of an Evaluator, Rachel Engh with Metris Arts, a consulting organization whose mission is to ?improve and measure cultural vitality? and who has extensive experience working in the field of creative placemaking. To establish a baseline for this evaluation, we plan to work with Granite Falls officials to distribute a survey to all town residents in early 2020 to assess their current feelings about their community, including sentiments about the town's overall potential, sense of promise, economic and social viability, and long-term livability, as well as the connectedness residents feel to their neighbors and to city processes. As the CAIR program matures over the next five years, we will ask the same questions periodically to identify any collective shifts in perception that may have been spurred by our work. With our first City Artist in Residence on site by fall 2020, we will have collected our baseline data as well as participant numbers, geographic reach, and representative demographics by mid-2021. Our organization is also committed to documentation and evaluation - including surveys and participatory evaluation strategies at all of our events. We will continue this practice with our CAIR program, especially as it relates to sharing out our findings with the broader region and field through our CAIR Resource Guide. Additionally, we plan to distribute the CAIR Resource Guide to other rural areas across the country in spring 2021; data about adoption / adaptation, implementation, and effects of this resource in other communities will be collected in the years to come, to establish the applicability and effectiveness of our community-designed CAIR process in other contexts.","CAIR contributed to greater connections between people from different political, cultural, geographic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. The CAIR program helped community members see arts and culture as an avenue for addressing community challenges, resulting in activities like enhancing public safety through the Creative Crosswalk project and using sidewalk art to communicate voting locations. CAIR brought in guest artists and lifted up community organizations and artists as local treasures. Granite Falls is becoming a place known for its vibrant community arts that engages younger families, businesses, and all community members who wish to be involved. The community of Granite Falls is primed for more civic engagement and artistic, creative strategies that will continue to showcase the community as a model for creative placemaking.","Achieved proposed outcomes",73001,"Other,local or private",98001,,"Ashley Hanson, Jenn Lamb, Mary Welcome, Rachel Schwalbach, Lauren Carlson, Molly Johnston, Farhia Ali, Tamara Isfeld, Hannah Holman, Jessica Huang, Hearther McDougall, Rachel Engh, Leu Solomon, Cassie WIlliams, Melissa Wray, Courtney Bergey Swanson, Anna Clauson, Randi Carlson, Bethany Lacktorin, Leah Cooper",0.00,"Department of Public Transformation","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Art Project Legacy",,"Granite Falls City Artist in Residence",2020-05-01,2021-10-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ashley,Hanson,"Department of Public Transformation","726 Prentice St","Granite Falls",MN,56241,"(952) 486-0533",publictransformation@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Yellow Medicine, Chippewa, Renville",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-legacy-24,"Kathy Fransen, music; Mary Kay Frisvold, music; Beth Habicht, music; Anna Johannsen, visual art, education, SMAC Board; Joyce Meyer, visual art, education; Kaia Nowatzki, visual art, music, theater; Jessica Welu, writing.","Cheri Buzzeo: theater, music, The Barn Theatre administration, Willmar Main St participant; Lauren Carlson: poetry, film, COMPAS roster artist, Dept. of Public Transformation board; Carisa Clarke: graphic design/web development, arts volunteer, board member DAC of Murray County; Lisa Hill: musician, Crow River Singers, attorney; Greg Jodzio: photography/design, Hutchinson Center for the Arts board, Hutchinson Public Arts Commission; Anna Johanssen: fiber artist, art teacher, Remick Gallery board, president of Windom Women's Investment group, treasurer of Cottonwood County Animal Rescue, officer of Cotton Quilters; Georgette Jones: literature teacher, theatre actor/director/teacher; David KelseyBassett: visual artist, musician, Hinterland Art Crawl board; Shawn Kinsinger: theater director, actor, musician, Palace Theatre executive director, Green Earth Players vice president, Luverne Street Music board member, Luverne High School Theater artistic director; Kristen Kuipers: musician, private lesson and K-12 classroom music instructor, theater, writing, volunteer with Jackson Center for the Arts; Brett Lehman: musician, social worker; Alison Nelson: art, music, and dance teacher, KMS Community Ed director, Kerkhoven Fire Department Auxiliary fundraiser; Anne O'Keefe-Jackson: human resources director, bead and quill work; Betsy Pardick: musician, actor, Dept. of Public Transformation committees; Michele Knife Sterner: theater (actor), SMSU Associate director for Access Opportunity Success program; Louella Voigt: music, fiber art; Blue Mound Area Theatre board; Erica Volkir: performing arts, Pipestone Performing Arts Center board, Pipestone Area Chamber of Commerce and CVB director; John White: writer, photographer, retired journalist; Mark Wilmes: Lake Benton Opera House board president, actor/director, musician, reporter;","Southwest Minnesota Arts Council, Nicole DeBoer (507) 537-1471",1

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. Artists also were enthused about the project and its impact.","Achieved proposed outcomes.",5500,"Other,local or private",19565,,"Kerry Kolke-Bonk, Dawn hegland, April Ehrenberg, Sydney Massee, Leslie Ehrenberg, Roman Fidler",,"City of Appleton","Local/Regional Government","Art Project Legacy",,"Appleton '52 Wing Collage Mural.",2018-02-15,2018-12-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Kerry,Kolke-Bonk,"City of Appleton","323 Schlieman Ave W ",Appleton,MN,56208,"(320) 413-0492 ",klpabonk@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Southwest Minnesota Arts Council ",,"Swift, Lac qui Parle, Chippewa, Big Stone",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/art-project-legacy-18,"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

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"".

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.

Of this amount, up to $2,660,000 is for grants in the seven-county metropolitan area and cities with a population of 50,000 or greater. Grants shall not be made for activities required to fulfill the duties of owners of lands subject to conservation easements. Grants shall not be made from the appropriation in this paragraph for projects that have a total project cost exceeding $575,000. Of the total appropriation, $634,000 may be spent for personnel costs and other direct and necessary administrative costs. Grantees may acquire land or interests in land. Easements must be permanent. Grants may not be used to establish easement stewardship accounts. Land acquired in fee must be open to hunting and fishing during the open season unless otherwise provided by law. The program shall require a match of at least ten percent from non-state sources for all grants. The match may be cash or in-kind resources. For grant applications of $25,000 or less, the commissioner shall provide a separate, simplified application process. Subject to Minnesota Statutes, the commissioner of natural resources shall, when evaluating projects of equal value, give priority to organizations that have a history of receiving or charter to receive private contributions for local conservation or habitat projects. If acquiring land in fee or a conservation easement, priority shall be given to projects associated with or within one mile of existing wildlife management areas under Minnesota Statutes, section 86A.05, subdivision 8; scientific and natural areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 84.033 and 86A.05, subdivision 5; or aquatic management areas under Minnesota Statutes, sections 86A.05, subdivision 14, and 97C.02.

In it's first 7 years of funding, the CPL program has provided 410 grants totaling $37 million to 133 different grantee organizations, positively affecting over 220,000 acres of habitat. Demand for CPL grants has continued to grow each year as new grantees hear about the program and successful grantees return. ",,"The CPL program fulfills MS 97a.056 Subd. 3a, directing LSOHC to establish a conservation partner’s grant program encouraging/supporting local conservation efforts. $8,660,000 was available for grants. 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.

Submittals come both from MNDNR staff and from partner organizations. Projects are prioritized based on scale-of-impact, urgency, local support, and critical habitat for rare species. Based on this list, MNDNR and our partners originally proposed three fish passage projects and four channel restorations. Based on allocated funds, we plan to complete our two highest priority projects in need of funding. These projects are modifying the dam on the Otter Tail River at Phelps Mill to allow fish passage, and restoring the stream channel on Stony Creek. Projects will benefit fish such as walleye, smallmouth bass, and northern pike present in these rivers, as well as five mussel species classified as threatened or special concern. If cost savings or other circumstances allow, we will use available funds for our next highest achievable project on the priority list.The modification of the Phelps Mill Dam was previously funded by the Outdoor Heritage in the ML2016 appropriation. However, the dam owner (Otter Tail County) is now willing to adopt our preferred option of a full modification of the dam rather than the previous option of a partial fishway. The bigger project will make for better fish passage, and will create additional spawning habitat within the created rapids. However, the cost of such a project is higher. An additional $800,000 from this appropriation will be used to complete the project, allowing us to take full advantage of a $300,000 US Fish and Wildlife Service grant. The project will create access to eight miles of upstream habitat, and 96 acres of lake habitat. We will not claim those acres as outputs, but instead will claim only 1 acre of direct habitat created.Stony Brook was straightened over four miles prior to the 1930s to facilitate drainage.

This proposal will enhance and restore grasslands on parcels that are permanently protected and most open to public hunting. These include DNR WMAs, SNAs, AMAs, Native Prairie Bank (NPB) easements, State Forests, as well as federal WPAs and NWRs. ","A drive through northern Minnesota takes you through forests or oak or aspen or pine of different age structures, bogs, sedge meadows, and brushland. Each of these is habitat for a wide range of species. A drive through southern Minnesota, especially in the winter finds mowed ditches and disced fields. There is little food and less cover. In many farmland counties less than five percent of the area is in public wildlife lands, often much less. Since 2007, Minnesota has lost nearly a million acres of CRP. This fall, another 203,000 acres will expire from the program. The nine county area of southwest Minnesota has lost 52 square miles of CRP since 2007. They will lose another 50 square miles in the next three years. Minnesota is scheduled to lose another 865 square miles of CRP enrollments over the five year period of this request. Wildlife and pollinator populations are a fraction of what they were even a decade ago. Water quality, especially nitrate contamination, is a human health and wildlife issue. Restoring and enhancing grasslands are one of the most effective ways to improve all of these issues. Because of the losses of grassland and wetland habitat across western Minnesota both historically and in recent years, it is that much more important that the public grasslands in Minnesota are as productive as possible for wildlife and pollinators. This programmatic request seeks funding to enhance grassland habitat on permanently protected grasslands and prairies, most of which are open to public hunting. Without periodic management to simulate historical disturbance patterns, grassland lose diversity and productivity. Invasive species may increase and woody vegetation will encroach into the grasslands, changing their very character and the species that inhabit the area.

WMAs protect lands and waters which have a high potential for wildlife production and develop and manage these lands and waters for public hunting, fishing and trapping, and for other compatible outdoor recreational uses such as wildlife watching and hiking. While highly successful, the current WMA system does not meet all present and future needs for wildlife habitat, wildlife population management, hunter access, and wildlife related recreation. This is notably true in the Prairie Ecological planning section where public ownership in many counties is 2 percent or less. DNR Section of Wildlife uses a GIS-based tool to identify the highest priority tracts for potential WMA acquisitions. This quantitative approach scores and ranks acquisition proposals based on a set of weighted criteria and creates a standardized method for evaluating proposed acquisitions on a statewide level.Criteria and weights are periodically reviewed and adapted to changing conditions and priorities. This ensures that funds are used to acquire available lands consistent with the statutory purpose of WMAs. The WMA acquisition program is guided by the 2002 Citizens' Committee report developed with a diverse group of eleven major stakeholder groups. Potential acquisition opportunities from willing sellers are coordinated with stakeholders and partners to eliminate duplication and identify concerns and support. Coordinating with partners has been successful to ensure we are working cooperatively and on priority parcels. Scientific & Natural Areas. The SNA Program will increase public hunting and fishing opportunities while protecting sites with outstanding natural values. Protection is targeted at high priority areas identified in the SNA Strategic Land Protection Plan with emphasis on prairie core areas identified in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan. A quantitative system scores and ranks acquisition proposals based on a weighted set of six criteria. Priority is given to sites of high and outstanding biodiversity significance by the Minnesota Biological Survey, high quality native plant communities and habitat for endangered and threatened species.

For example, candidates for WMAs score higher with a prairie grouse lek, presence of shallow lakes, and occurrence of species in greatest conservation need; and candidates for SNAs score higher with high quality native plant communities and habitat for rare species. Both programs also give priority to parcels that adjoin existing units or other conservation lands.","A total of 964 acres were affected: 0 Restored, 964 in Fee Title, 0 in Easements, 0 in Enhance.",227900,"Surcharge and RIM",4228000,20000,,0.33,DNR,"State Government","Work resulting from this appropriation resulted in the acquisition, development, and inclusion of 964 acres into the state Wildlife Management Area (WMA) system by way of five acquisitions. The acres acquired met the accomplishment plan goals of 960 acres, and spent 96% of the budget. The acquired acres compliment the WMA program by adding habitat function and natural resource ecosystem services.","Through this appropriation the MN DNR protected lands in the prairie ecological section. The MN DNR prioritized our acquisitions to focus on parcels with an existing habitat base, acquisition opportunities that provided connectivity and worked toward building habitat complexes, and opportunities that allowed us to maximize habitat benefits. All acquisitions were a result of a relationship with a willing seller. We scored them using a GIS tool that assigns points based on the natural resource attributes along with other ecological and management criteria. We then ranked them in importance based on their score and input from local DNR land managers. All acquisitions where then subject to County Board review and approval. Five WMA parcels totaling 964 acres are now permanently protected as a result of acquisitions funded by this program.

A list of proposed land restorations and enhancements must be provided as part of the required accomplishment plan. ",,"Prairie habitats once covered one-third of the state but presently less than 2% remain. Native prairie, other grasslands that provides habitat for wildlife, and wetlands are key components of functional prairie landscapes that have the capacity to adapt to changing environmental conditions. While these appropriation only added 2,085 acres of grassland acres to the state through restoration, these funds enhanced a much larger area. Put in another fashion, we restored and enhanced 69.5 square miles with these funds. That's an area 8.3 by 8.3 miles in area. None of this work was targeted at a specific species of wildlife. We used that approach that diverse productive habitats benefit a wide variety of both game and non-game wildlife species as well as any threatened or endangered species. In our restorations, we use very diverse seed mixes. This is obviously beneficial for pollinators. However, all those insects also create a food base for a large number of wildlife species. The structural diversity all those plant species create in the habitat allow every species to find an ideal niche in the grass as well as accomodates different life history stages of wildlife.","A total of 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. We can summarize our results in the following table. 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. Staff funding was combined into one value.

Performances staged in The YES! House's theater space will explore the power of collaborative work that's driven by a community's articulated needs. DoPT will continue to nourish the positive feedback loop of hearing a community's voices with equity, supporting practicing artists, and developing creative solutions to complex, long-standing challenges. The immediate effect will be felt by DoPT and local residents and businesses. However, artists and arts organizations in rural settings across the country have the potential to be affected as the replicable YES! House model is shared widely. 7: ""Minnesota's Arts Sector grows in reach and impact through programs and strategies that improve the health and operations of regional arts organizations."" The community-driven performing arts projects at The YES! House will deliberately engage artists from underrepresented demographics and non-traditional arts audiences, highlighting the viability of arts as drivers of economic, social, and community wellness in rural towns. The immediate effect will be felt by residents and businesses in Granite Falls and nearby towns. However, artists and arts organizations in rural settings across the country have the potential to be affected as the replicable YES! House model is shared widely. From the beginning of our community-engaged design process a year ago, in anticipation of assembling the resource guide for other communities to use, we have been documenting our approach, our collaborations, our successes, and our failures. We track these and other moments of engagement through quantitative, qualitative and participatory evaluation strategies, including photo, video, interviews, story circles, sharebacks, surveys (in person and online) and non-traditional approaches (games, storytelling, poetry, drawings, etc.) at and following each of our public events. Because of these diverse metrics, we have a well-established starting point to which we frequently compare our progress. Once the renovation of The YES! House is complete and our diverse programs are underway, we plan to collect and assess data about their effectiveness under the guidance of Metris Arts, a consulting organization whose mission is to ?improve and measure cultural vitality? and who has extensive experience working in the field of creative placemaking. To establish a baseline for this evaluation, we plan to work with Granite Falls officials to distribute a survey to all town residents in early 2020 to assess their current feelings about their community, including sentiments about the town's overall potential, sense of promise, economic and social viability, and long-term livability, as well as the connectedness residents feel to their neighbors. As our programs mature over the next five years, we will ask the same questions periodically to identify any collective shifts in perception that may have been spurred by our work. With the facility slated to open and by fall 2020, we will have collected our baseline data as well as participant numbers, geographic reach, and representative demographics by mid-2021. Data about adoption / adaptation, implementation, and effects of this resource in other communities will be collected in the years to come, to establish the applicability and effectiveness of our community-engaged creative design process in other contexts.","We were able to purchase all the necessary equipment for the performance venue, and we look forward to utilizing the equipment when we are able to complete the build-out of the space (delayed due to COVID-19, but still on track for completion.) Our ability to provide high-quality arts experiences has expanded now that we have the necessary equipment to support artists and impact audiences.

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.

(2) Of this amount, $250,000 the first year is for a grant to one or more community organizations that provide arts and cultural heritage programming celebrating Somali heritage. ","Ka Joog and AADA propose to measure qualitative and quantitative outcomes for each goal as follows: Goal 1: Somali American youth build their knowledge of traditional Somali art forms and increase their capacity to use Somali arts as a communication tool Outcomes of Goal 1: 20-25 Somali American youth participate in monthly art clubs 100 Somali American youth use Somali art to present their ideas in a public forum 90% or more of youth participants self-report an increase in knowledge of Somali art after participating in workshops To assess whether these activities achieve their intended impact, AADA and Ka Joog will use post-art club surveys distributed to participating students and artists to help us determine how we can continuously improve our approach and instruction quality. Learning from art clubs will culminate in public presentations, implemented quarterly. At the conclusion of each presentation, we will request youth and participating artists to self-assess what they learned, how they have grown, and what support they would like Ka Joog and AADA to offer to deepen their learning and enhance their practical application of their new artistic skills.   Goal 2: Public presentations change community perceptions and increase dialogue within the Somali American community in the Twin Cities and Moorhead. Outcomes of Goal 2: At least 130 individuals attend public presentations (this indicator is the same for Goal 3) 70% of Somali American attendees indicate they have new knowledge or understanding after participating in the presentation To measure these outcomes, Ka Joog and AADA will distribute post-presentation surveys to each attendee and we will collect their feedback when guests exit the venue. After each presentation, our team will also facilitate conversations to allow attendees to share their impressions verbally. We will document this feedback as qualitative information to complement data collected through surveys.   Goal 3: Public presentations change intercommunity perceptions and increase dialogue between the Somali and non-Somali communities in the Twin Cities and Moorhead. Outcomes of Goal 3: At least 130 individuals attend public presentations 30% of public presentation attendees will identify as non-Somali At least 50% of non-Somali attendees report improved intercultural appreciation after participating in a public presentation Like Goal 2, Ka Joog and AADA will use post-presentation surveys to assess the outcomes of our presentations. We will measure positive changes in perceptions of the Somali American community by non-Somali attendees to determine if our program has positively impacted intercultural perceptions.   To further the impacts of goals 2 and 3, Ka Joog and AADA intend to document the public presentations and share them widely through our websites, YouTube channels, and social media platforms.

",,,,,,,,,,,,"Maintaining Existing Holdings - 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 calls this Take Care of What We Have, and identifies its purpose to provide safe, high-quality park and trail experiences by regular re-investment in park and trail infrastructure, and natural resource management. 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. FTEs reported here are consistent with the guidelines provided by the Legislative Coordinating Commission.

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

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

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

"," 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.

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.

Since 2000, the Refuge has protected 4,970 acres in Minnesota with funding from non-OHF sources. This falls far short of landowner interest.Funding from the Outdoor Heritage Fund will allow The Nature Conservancy and US Fish and Wildlife Service, in partnership, to significantly accelerate this progress. TNC and USFWS will protect approximately 770 acres of native prairie and associated habitat in the 49 Minnesota counties within the Refuge boundary. This will include approximately 385 acres of fee acquisition and approximately 385 acres of permanent habitat easements.This program targets high-quality native habitat in areas with existing concentrations of native prairie, wetlands, and protected lands. The majority of protected lands will be native prairie and associated habitats including wetlands, streams, and lakes.Potential acquisitions are reviewed using the following criteria:1) Is there native prairie on the tract? If not, is it adjacent to native prairie?2) Is the property in a priority area identified in the Minnesota Prairie Conservation Plan (Prairie Plan)?3) Is it adjacent to an existing complex of protected land?4) Was it identified by Minnesota Biological Survey as having concentrations of threatened and endangered species and communities?5) Is it suitable for public recreation?Because of the nature of parcel ownership, some properties acquired through this program will likely include small areas of converted or degraded habitat needing restoration/enhancement. Restoration/enhancement will be completed where needed.Previous OHF support has allowed us to make significant progress towards protecting and buffering our remaining native prairie. Since 2013, 3,800 acres have been added to the Refuge. 2,470 acres are classified as native prairie. Additional habitat includes 410 acres of wetlands and 11 miles of stream/lakefront. Landowners have committed an additional 294 acres, including 159 native prairie acres. Negotiations are ongoing with a long list of interested landowners.The Nature Conservancy (the Conservancy) may be reimbursed for salary and fringe benefits based on a provisional fringe benefits rate consistent with federal regulations and negotiated annually with the Conservancy's cognizant agency. Within 180 days of the end of each Nature Conservancy fiscal year, the Conservancy will provide MN DNR with the actual fringe benefits rate for the prior year and reconcile any overpayment made by the State. This approach is consistent with ML 2016, Ch. 172, Art. 1, Sec. 2, Subd. 8 (Payment Conditions and Capital Equipment Expenditures).

Staff have been affected in many positive ways through salaries to having access to updated software and computers and outsourcing of skills. 3: ?The capacity of those providing arts experiences is increased or strengthened by changing, expanding, or enriching the ways in which they connect to their communities through the arts.? The organization of MVAS is a facilitator between those wishing to study the arts and those willing to teach and pass on their knowledge. The more adept the organization becomes as a facilitator, the more the organization will grow and therefore its ability to enrich the region's communities through traditional, contemporary and folk arts. Art is not for everyone, but MVAS is striving to make art as accessible to all those in the community that wish to make this journey. 9: ?Regional residents gain awareness and appreciation for a variety of artistic disciplines and mediums.? Our mission to accept all art forms is evident in the classes taught on any given year. Fine arts, silversmithing, carving, Scandinavian arts, culinary and fibre arts are all taught which opens the community up to a variety of artistic disciplines and mediums. As an art school, MVAS does not wish to be pigeonholed in one art genre. The funding gives us the scope to grow and expand our offerings. Regional students will benefit the most as they will have more offerings and will have greater access to art choices. Classes on offer: MVAS loses some classes each year, but adds more than is lost. 2019 had a record number of classes and 2020 has more than 2020. Information is available on our class and student database. Student numbers: Student numbers are up significantly in 2019.

Information is available on our class and student database.Revenue from classes and events: Revenue is up 20% over 2018. This is expected to continue.

Goal one Method and Evaluation: Build on the success of the current fiscal year's fundraising experiment by planning another large event fundraiser that will net at least $6,000 each of the next two years. Goal two Method and Evaluation: Through regular budget review, the board will evaluate the ability to to dedicate surplus funds to reserves. 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. Use multiple electronic methods to reach potential audiences with more Facebook posts, more fans, more new material on the website.","We essentially reached our first two goals of sustaining net fundraising income at least $6,000 during to support partial funding for a director position, and budgeting for reserves equal to 5% of our budget, despite losing income from two concerts that were postponed this past season. 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. Because we did not hand them out with the programs, we only received 20 paper copy surveys back. The online survey ran for about a week following the concert and elicited 54 responses.

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

State Legislature Article 4, Section 2, Subdivision 8, (c)","$625,000 each year is for grants to other children’s museums to pay for start-up costs or new exhibit and program development. Funds are to be distributed through a competitive grant process. The Minnesota Humanities Center must administer these funds using established grant mechanisms. ","Our Proposed Measurable Outcomes are as follows: - Having a visitor return rate of 70% by the end of the first year. - Have a membership renewal rate of 85% by the end of the first year. - Engage 40% of licensed daycares in Otter Tail county in membership opportunities. - Have four free admission Saturdays during our first calendar year where Otter Cove becomes available and accessible to anyone and everyone. - Have six low sensory events, outside of normal museum hours, where children can engage with our exhibits who may not normally visit during busy times. ","Otter Cove Children's Museum was ready for its grand opening when COVID struck in March 2020. Our team immediately went into survival mode and began fundraising to pay for our rent, unsure how long we would have to remain closed. It was a painful feeling, knowing how isolated everyone was and that we had a fully completed, state-of-the-art children's museum in the heart of downtown, just waiting for visitors to come play. Starting in July 2020, we began hosting private rentals with no more than 40 people at a time. We also gave private tours to our amazingly supportive donors who were anxious to see the completed space. The response was incredible. Friends would join together to rent the space just so their kids could play. We started tracking zip codes and realized how far people were traveling to play at Otter Cove, even during a pandemic. We held a series of open-air art classes in the Maker Shop; these were some of the only children's and adult programs available during the summer and fall of 2020. We are proud that we could offer creative opportunities for our community while following COVID safety protocol. Despite the pandemic, we achieved our goal of becoming a regional gathering ground for children and families. We are also proud of Otter Cove's impact on the local economy. Often when guests leave the museum, they ask staff for recommendations of great local restaurants. If a child is having a difficult time leaving Otter Cove, caregivers will often tempt them with a trip to Uncle Eddie's Ice Cream, just down the street from Otter Cove.

Otter Cove was started and driven by a group of moms but the actual place, Otter Cove, is for children and the ""critters"" who live there; the otter in the Otter Romp Playground, the fox at the cafe, the beaver at the dentist office, the raccoon at the grocery store, the swan on the stage, the mice at the bookstore, and the skunk at the veterinarian. Every detail at Otter Cove is designed to look and feel like a true destination that guests are transported into as they walk through the door. Furthermore, the region's landscape, agricultural influence, businesses and art scene are visible as the actual exhibits and core components of the museum's play structure, miniature downtown, farm and field, and art and maker space. The beneficiaries of the museum will be the young people visiting the museum who lack imaginative, creative, educational and physical play options in the region. Families and caregivers will appreciate a place where connections and community foster, especially in the winter. Family connections will grow, as the museum is an experience that will have impacts across generations - parents and their children, grandparents with their grandchildren, families and caregivers across the spectrum. It's exciting that Otter Cove will be the only children's museum with an indoor play structure in a 180 mile radius, ultimately helping increase traffic for local businesses from the additional visitors in town. We have heard countless employers donate to the project because they are excited to attract and retain young talent with this unique amenity. Childcare providers and school groups will also benefit from having an educational destination for field trips that is local.

Select Roundtable members will combine resources and grow a collective capacity to support the ongoing research, identification, protection, development, and eventual designation of historic resources. Working with Rondoites, students, scholars, and consultants, partners will: 1) align the stories identified in the African American Historic and Cultural Context Study and the Archival Project to the proper locations within the footprint of Historic Rondo and; 2) develop a mapped database of historically significant sites. The mapped database will advance the secondary goals of a) informing the restoration efforts that could take shape along a proposed land bridge and throughout the Historic Rondo Neighborhood; b) calculating the lost wealth experienced by the families inadequately compensated at the time by the I-94 construction; c) identifying original Rondoites and their descendants to collect artifacts and target future wealth-building opportunities; d) prioritizing historically significant sites to inform resource allocation better; e) recognizing what should be preserved, restored, replicated or historically marked; and f) investigating and enabling the design of tours, placemaking, digital interpretative tools or historically inspired business models. From the recent Green Line light rail installation to the State Department of Transportation ReThinking of the I-94 corridor, the Rondo community has at its feet a catalytic moment to harness the revitalizing energy currently taking shape within the area.

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.

We also knew that to be able to scan the photographs that we uncovered would help to build a cohesive photograph collection. What we did not anticipate was the excited reaction of so many people to the opportunity to share in the workload and to see what the collection is really about. We are now able to compare the collection we have recorded to the 1983 list to know what pieces are missing, and how many copies of each photograph are there as well as where each is located. We have uncovered another 5,000 images yet to be cataloged and integrated into the collection formally, vastly enhancing the life of Ernest Oberholtzer as photographer, conservationist, canoeist, and friend to so many.

Practices to be implemented include those listed as enhancements in addition to re-seeding with native species and restoration of original wetland hydrology.Results to date - Through Phases 1-8 we have protected 6,490 acres of prairies, wetlands, and grasslands and have enhanced more than 100,000 acres of permanently protected grasslands. The protected acres span our priority geographies. In all cases parcels werepurchased that were directly adjacent to, or contributed to, the functional integrity of existing habitat complexes. Average per acre cost for acquired properties has averaged around $1,720 per acre. Our enhancement projects have focused on accelerating the implementation of prescribed fire, extensive woody vegetation removal, building the infrastructure for conservation grazing systems and mechanical and chemical treatment of invasive species. Costs for enhancement and restoration work vary depending on the practices being implemented but have averaged around $80 per acre.",,2019-07-01,,"Outdoor Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Neal,Feeken,"The Nature Conservancy","1101 W River Parkway Suite 200",Minneapolis,MN,55415,"(612) 331-0738",nfeeken@tnc.org,,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Becker, Big Stone, Chippewa, Clay, Cottonwood, Kandiyohi, Kittson, Lac qui Parle, Lincoln, Lyon, Mahnomen, Murray, Nobles, Norman, Pennington, Pipestone, Polk, Pope, Red Lake, Rock, Roseau, Stearns, Swift, Traverse, Wilkin, Yellow Medicine","Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/mn-prairie-recovery-project-phase-ix,,,,

It builds upon the successful model established in Phases 1 - 6 and seeks to protect 200 acres in fee without PILT obligations to be held by The Nature Conservancy, protect an additional 100 acres with PILT for inclusion in the State's Wildlife Management or Scientific Natural Area systems, enhance 7,500 acres of permanently protected grasslands, and restore 100 acres of prairie habitat. ",,"Phase 7 built upon the success of the MN Prairie Recovery Project Phases 1-6 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. 450 acres of existing and restorable grassland 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. 329 acres of cropland 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. 5,469 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 (9 projects impacting 858 acres), removal of woody vegetation (40 projects for1,723 acres), control of invasive species (58 projects - 2,880 acres), and inter-seeding of degraded grasslands (6 projects - 169 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.   ",2017-07-01,2021-08-10,"Outdoor Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Neal,Feeken,"The Nature Conservancy","1101 W River Parkway Suite 200",Minneapolis,MN,55415,"(612) 331-0738",nfeeken@tnc.org,"Land Acquisition","Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Becker, Big Stone, Clay, Kandiyohi, Kittson, Lac qui Parle, Marshall, Polk, Pope, Red Lake, Stearns, Swift, Yellow Medicine","Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/mn-prairie-recovery-project-phase-vii,,,,

The first phase of this project has preserved important repertoire and legendary performances from a pivotal and highly active period in the Minnesota Orchestra’s life that is rich in material of artistic and historical value to our own community and the nation. In addition to the musical record, most of these broadcast concerts also feature intermission interviews with guest artists, guest conductors, and other notable personalities that may be a rich source of information for researchers and others. The digitized and preserved concert recordings from this project are now being held in the archives of the Minnesota Orchestra’s library, Minnesota Public Radio’s Digital Media Archive, and the University of Minnesota Performing Arts Archive.

","This project funded implementation of 180 grade control structures (side water inlets and rock-drop grade stabilization) and stabilized 1,450 linear feet of waterway in the Red Lake River Watershed. The work resulted in a reduction of 593 tons/year of sediment. Discrepancies between proposed and actual measurable sediment reduction outcomes are due to new an improved sediment estimator tool that was refined between grant start and close. Funds covered the costs of staff to design and engineer projects and work with landowners, including targeted outreach to landowners in priority areas. All projects were in priority areas identified in the plan, and addressed sediment reduction, which was identified as a major issue. All work was completed on time and on budget. Clean Water Funds provided leverage for the partnership to pursue and secure additional federal funds totaling $380,362 from the Regional Conservation Partnership Program. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency also selected the partnership for the Section 319 small watersheds focus program.","Achieved proposed outcomes",105908,"LOCAL LEVERAGED FUNDS",677551,36443,"Members for Red Lake WD are: Allan Page, Brian Dwight, Dale Nelson, Gene Tiedemann, LeRoy Ose, Terry Sorenson, Tom Anderson",1.4,"Red Lake WD","Local/Regional Government","Impaired waters in the Red Lake River 1W1P are categorized into management classes to target impaired waters that are closest to meeting water quality standards and to protect unimpaired waters close to becoming impaired.

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.

The proposal is comprised of four components: (1) projects to engineer and construct or renovate wetland infrastructure and to enhance wetlands; (2) funding to continue wetland habitat enhancement work by the existing Roving Habitat Crew in Region 1; (3) continued funding of three Shallow Lakes Program specialists, and; (4) creation of a new Prairie Wetland Initiative to address unmet management needs of small wetlands in Minnesota prairies.","Minnesota wetlands, besides being invaluable for waterfowl, also provide other desirable functions and values - habitat for a wide range of species, groundwater recharge, water purification, flood water storage, shoreline protection, and economic benefits. An estimated 90% of Minnesota’s prairie wetlands have been lost, more than 50% of our statewide wetland resource. In remaining wetlands, benefits are too often compromised by degraded habitat quality due to excessive runoff and invasive plants and fish. This proposal will accomplish needed wetland habitat work throughout Minnesota, with a focus on the prairie region.ROVING HABITAT CREW - Numerous plans pertaining to wetlands and shallow lakes call for effective management of existing habitat to provide maximum benefits for wildlife. Past Outdoor Heritage Fund (OHF) monies were used to establish regional Roving Habitat Crews to address needed upland and wetland habitat management work on state wildlife properties. We have seen remarkable recoveries of both habitat quality and wildlife use of wetlands when we have invested in active management. The funding requested in this proposal will be targeted to continuing the wetland habitat work of the existing Region 4 Roving Habitat Crew. Crew work will include, but not be limited to, managing water levels, maintaining fish barriers and other wetland infrastructure, inducing winterkill of fish, and and controlling invasive plants and fish. SHALLOW LAKES / WETLAND PROJECTS -The habitat quality of the shallow lakes/wetlands still on the landscape can be markedly improved by implementing active management to bring about habitat objectives. This proposal seeks to engineer and construct wetland infrastructure such as dikes, water control structures, and fish barriers, and to implement management techniques such as prescribed burns, rough fish control and water level manipulation. The shallow lake and wetland projects identified in this proposal for enhancement were proposed and reviewed by DNR Area and Regional supervisors. Projects, as shown in the accompanying parcel list, include engineering feasibility and design work, replacement/renovation of wetland infrastructure to bring about habitat enhancement, and direct wetland management activities.SHALLOW LAKES PROGRAM - Shallow Lakes specialists perform critical roles in assessing shallow lakes and initiating needed management. Many shallow lakes projects currently being implemented or completed in the past are the result of work by the shallow lakes program Requested funding will continue OHF funding for three shallow lakes positions. PRAIRIE WETLAND INITIATIVE - Only 1 of 5 Minnesota prairie wetlands is in good condition. While we have a highly successful Shallow Lakes program that assesses and initiates management on shallow lakes, similar attention is needed for smaller wetlands. This component of the proposal seeks funding to place two wetland specialists in the prairie to assess small wetlands and implement management. These specialists would work with Area wildlife staff, roving habitat crews, and private contractors to initiate needed management. Such management could include vegetation control, water level manipulation, and the removal of undesirable fish.",,2019-07-01,,"Outdoor Heritage Fund","In Progress",,,Ricky,Lien,"Minnesota DNR","500 Layette ","St. Paul",MN,55155,"(651) 259-5227",ricky.lien@state.mn.us,Restoration/Enhancement,"Minnesota Department of Natural Resources",,"Big Stone, Cass, Chippewa, Chisago, Hubbard, Lyon, Polk, Rice, Sibley, Wadena, Wright","Northern Forest, Forest Prairie Transition, Prairie Region, Metropolitan - Urbanizing Area",,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/shallow-lakes-and-wetlands-enhancements-phase-11,,,,

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.

","Outcomes for We Are All Engineers are aligned with the three project goals: 1) Goal: To successfully implement The Works Museum’s first co-creation model to develop two new 90-minute workshops that support Minnesota teachers in implementing the Science Standards and an associated interactive station for our museum gallery. Outcomes: - Partners from the Dakota, Ojibwe, Hmong, Mexican, and Somali cultural communities will have shared elements of their cultures and made connections with The Works Museum’s family and school audiences. - The project team will have developed two new workshops that support Minnesota teachers in implementing the Science Standards and will have created an associated interactive station for our museum gallery. - The Works Museum will have demonstrated the ability to successfully co-create programming with members of communities who are historically underrepresented in STEM, document the co-creation process, and establish partnerships with representatives from these five cultural communities. - The Works Museum will have increased our capacity to co-create programs, providing an important foundation for incorporating the diverse Minnesotan community in our work long-term. 2) Goal: To create authentic, meaningful primary resource experiences that allow children to explore the Dakota, Ojibwe, Hmong, Mexican, and Somali cultures through the lens of engineering and that allow kids from non-dominant cultures to see themselves represented in STEM. Outcomes: - Students from non-dominant communities will see their cultures represented in The Works Museum’s programs, feel welcomed at the museum, and engage more meaningfully in STEM experiences. - Workshop participants and museum visitors will interact with and gain a better understanding of engineering contributions from Minnesota American Indian and other non-dominant Minnesota cultural communities. 3) Goal: To provide opportunities for children from the five cultures represented in the project, for children from under-resourced schools, and for all museum visitors to engage with these cultures through hands-on exploration and play. Outcomes: - The Works Museum will deliver new workshops to all 2nd and 4th grade students at each of the six partner schools, selected for their high percentages of students representing the five cultures, reaching an estimated 1,000 students. - An estimated 1,000 children from under-resourced schools will participate in the new programs with subsidized bus and program fees. - In addition to the 2,000 students served through program delivery to partner and under-resourced schools, we estimate that an additional 45,000 museum visitors will engage with these cultures through hands-on exploration and play in the museum gallery during the grant period.

During the grant period, these new programs will provide a projected 47,000 children and families with culturally authentic experiences that engage them meaningfully in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) while highlighting the engineering contributions of Dakota, Ojibwe, Hmong, Mexican, and Somali cultures.

",,,,,,,,,,,"The Watershed Health Assessment Framework (WHAF) is a web-based tool for resource managers and others interested in the ecological health of Minnesota's watersheds. The framework uses five ecological components to organize and deliver information about watershed health conditions in Minnesota. The five components are hydrology, connectivity, biology, geomorphology, and water quality. Statewide GIS data from DNR and partner agencies are used to calculate health scores that reveal similarities and differences between watersheds. Patterns at the major watershed and sub-watershed (catchment) scale help resource managers identify vulnerabilities and target efforts for the greatest benefit. The WHAF website provides details about each health score and key concepts for understanding watershed systems. The WHAF Watershed Map makes complex issues easier to visualize. Developed in 2012, this interactive map now delivers 41 health scores organized by the five components of watershed health, together with over 200 related data layers. A matrix tool summarizes the health scores as an interactive table, and a land cover tool summarizes landscape and water use change over time.The WHAF also delivers downloadable Major Watershed reports; the Watershed Context Report, Watershed Climate Summary, and Watershed Health Report Card. The Stream Protection Priorities for WRAPS data layer (an interagency product) is now updated annually in the WHAF Map. A new WHAF for Lakes application provides health scores, maps, and data summaries for different aspects of lake health. WHAF trainings, presentations, online use guides and a quarterly newsletter support those working in the evolving field of watershed science. WHAF Watershed Health Scores and WHAF Lake Health Scores are also available through Minnesota's GeoCommons for use in GIS analysis. ","The DNR and agency partners have been charged with creating Healthier Watersheds for Minnesota.

This project may lead to improvements in determining the benefits and impacts from drainage and who should pay for maintenance of drainage systems and drainage system improvements that may benefit others than the landowners where the improvements are made.","In FY14 the DNR continued to work with the Army Corps Of Engineers and other partners involved in the Minnesota River Integrated Watershed Study (MRIWS). DNR’s three modeling case studies in the Shakopee Creek watershed were not completed. Instead effort was focused on stakeholder meetings and MRIWS team meetings to identify the specific series of landscape conditions (model scenarios) that need to be evaluated. Because improved soil health management will be a critical component of water restoration and protection strategies existing research on soil physics was carefully reviewed to insure that our models accurately represent those processes. Significant effort was also invested in FY14 to improve how climate and rainfall data are incorporated into our models. Climatic parameters are key drivers of how water (and pollutants) moves across and through landscapes. Accurately incorporating this information is critical if our modeling efforts are going to simulate physical processes in the landscape and provide reliable decision-support guidance. A guidance document on radar precipitation estimation was prepared. The DNR’s Drainage Engineer continued to provide expert technical input into the effort being led by the Board of Water and Soil Resources to review Minnesota’s drainage policy and code. Input was provided to both the Drainage Work Group (DWG) and the Drainage Management Team (DMT). The DNR continued to participate on the Interagency Clean Water Research Sub-Team led that prioritizes and guides research studies paid for by the clean water fund. These studies are designed to improve understanding of BMP effectiveness and develop guidance for targeting and installation of these beneficial practices. The Cannon River/Straight River GSSHA pilot study with the MPCA and Cannon River stakeholders is on hold after the lead modeler left state service.

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,,,,

During the January 2020 conference, the following delegations either fully participated for the first time or participated in a new program that they had not been involved with before: Carlton High School (Carlton, MN) – 3 students CHOICE Technical Academy (Owatonna, MN) - 3 students Cologne Academy (Cologne, MN) – 3 students Eagan YMCA (Eagan, MN) – 5 students Faribault High School (Faribault, MN) – 4 students Cook County YMCA (Cook County, YMCA) – 5 students Academy of Holy Angels (Minneapolis, MN) – 7 students Itasca County 4-H (Grand Rapids, MN) – 3 students Mesabi Area YMCA (Virginia, MN) – 2 students Parnassus Prep (Maple Grove, MN) – 12 students St. Anthony Village High School (Minneapolis, MN) – 5 students   The program director for outreach also successfully completed a Model UN Sampler experience for five young people from Kandiyohi County Family YMCA. In January 2021, we hosted a virtual conference for more than 500 young people, led by 48 delegation directors, to whom we paid a stipend that was determined by the number of students in their delegation (the spreadsheet with details will be included as backup documentation). We considered this outcome to be a tremendous success given the challenges circumstances students and teachers were experiencing due to COVID.
