Rainy River Headwaters Public Participation

The purpose of this project is for Cook County Soil and Water Conservation District to continue to assist with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's (MPCA) watershed approach and Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategy development process in the Rainy River Headwaters watershed. Working alongside other MPCA partners, Cook County Soil and Water Conservation District will provide guidance for the MPCA's watershed approach to address local needs through participation in technical, planning, and Core Team meetings as well as review of produced reports. Cook County Soil and Water Conservation District will also lead efforts to increase levels of civic engagement and community participation in support of the current WRAPS process. This project will provide local public participation work through the end of the first WRAPS cycle in the Rainy River Headwaters watershed.
