Small Scale Lake Planning

2017
Complete
It describes projects completed over more than two decades. Our focus is to gain control of critical lands for the purpose of reducing runoff of nutrients and sediment that flows from agricultural areas to Deer Lake. We have purchased properties and then converted eroding cropland to prairie, restored wetlands, cleaned up old gravel pits and disposal areas, and created sediment basins to
hold dirty water and release it slowly.
