Purpose

SEWRPC Contract - Supplemental funds for water quality planning in designated management areas; expedite updates for additional urban service areas with intense development pressures; contract with Southeast Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission.

Objective

The Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission would pass through the 604 (b) funding to the consultant doing the Kinnickinnic River Watershed Restoration Plan for the Southeastern Wisconsin Watersheds Trust (SWWT). The consultant would also provide the information to Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District to incorporate into their Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Flood Control Study. 1) To integrate the use of non-structural best management practices widely known as green infrastructure into the planning and implementation process of the Kinnickinnic Watershed Restoration Plan (WRP) process for two subwatershed: Villa Mann Creek and Holmes Avenue Creek. 2) To model using the “blanket approach” of green infrastructure for the two subwatersheds showing where implementation of practices would benefit water quality and quantity in the stream. 3) To integrate the use of green infrastructure practices into the Kinnickinnic Watercourse Flood Study for the two subwatersheds. 4) To identify areas in the two watersheds where the “blanketing” approach of green infrastructure would benefit water quality and water quantity goals.

Outcome

1) Completion of the green infrastructure practices “blanketing” modeling results for Villa Mann and Holmes Avenue Creek subwatersheds. 2) Incorporation of the green infrastructure practices “blanketing” modeling results into both the Kinnickinnic River WRP and the Kinnickinnic River Watercourse Study 3) Identification of green infrastructure practices by area in each of the subwatersheds that show the greatest water quality and water quantity benefit for the stream 4) Summarize results in a report on the effectiveness of using a blanket green infrastructure practices approach. 5) Recommend a green infrastructure pilot project (if benefits are found through this analysis) to the Southeastern Wisconsin Watershed Trust for implementation.
