Project Overview

The District is seeking to further its goals of meeting multipurpose drainage management requirements under its obligations as a 103E drainage authority. Judicial Ditch 1 is the largest system in the District, and proportionally one of the largest contributors of sediment and nutrients to the downstream reaches of the North Fork Crow River. The goal of this project is to target opportunities for projects and practices in the Judicial Ditch 1 watershed that provide measurable improvements to the public drainage system management by reducing peak flows, erosion and sediment, and nutrient loading.
