Project Overview

The Middle Fork Zumbro River Critical Source Area Restoration Clean Water Fund grant will focus on the implementation of six to eight of the 23 identified and ranked sediment reducing conservation practices identified in two targeted sub-watersheds of the Middle Fork Zumbro River. These six to eight projects will work towards achieving an estimated 49-96 tons of TSS to the impaired Middle Fork Zumbro River and are imperative to the health of the Middle Fork Zumbro River and Lake Zumbro. Partnering with the Dodge Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) is the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), and the Zumbro Watershed Partnership (ZWP).
