Project Details

There has been a lack of maintenance on CD 10, a 16 mile long ditch in Wright County, since its establishment in 1906. A system wide repair is planned for 2021. The CD 10 drainage system constitutes the headwaters for several impaired waterbodies. The goal of this project is to implement 34 alternative side inlet control structures in conjunction with the system wide repair that will reduce downstream sediment and phosphorus loads. Sediment and phosphorus reductions are estimated to be 43 tons/year and 73 pounds/year, respectively. Other eligible practices will be considered depending on site specific information obtained during project development.
