The Yahara-Monona Priority Watershed Project plan assesses the nonpoint sources of pollution in the Yahara-Monona Watershed and guides the implementation of nonpoint source control measures. The quality of water resouces in the Yahara-Monona Watershed is degraded from rainfall and snowmelt washing pollutants off various urban and rural land surfaces. Because of this and concerns expressed by local units of government, the watershed has been targeted for detailed management planning, educational activities, and water quality practices that can be implemented with financial assistance available through the Wisconsin Priority Watershed Program. The purpose of this project is to reduce the amount of pollutants originating from nonpoint sources that reach surface water and groundwater within the Yahara-Monona Priority Watershed Project area.
