2021 Metro WBIF - MN River South -(Dakota SWCD)
This project will protect and improve surface waters that receive stormwater discharge from urban land that does not have adequate stormwater treatment. The project will provide needed technical assistance and cost share funding for landowners to design and implement medium sized water quality BMPs. BMPs may include gully stabilizations, infiltration basins, bioretention basins, hydrodynamic separators, other stormwater runoff controls and streambank and shoreline protections. Depending on the size and scale of the projects, 2 to 3 mid-sized stormwater BMPs will be installed through this project.

(Watershed Based Implementation Funding)(a) $13,591,000 the first year and $13,375,000 the second year are for performance-based grants with multiyear implementation plans to local government units. The grants may be used to implement projects that protect, enhance, and restore surface water quality in lakes, rivers, and streams; protect groundwater from degradation; and protect drinking water sources. Projects must be identified in a comprehensive watershed plan developed under the One Watershed, One Plan or metropolitan surface water management frameworks or groundwater plans. Grant recipients must identify a nonstate match and may use other legacy funds to supplement projects funded under this paragraph.
The proposed BMPs will result in an estimated 1.0 lb of phosphorus reduced annually and 40,000 cubic feet per year of volume reduced annually.
