The South Branch Little Wolf River watershed drains portions of the planning area generally to the north and east of the city of Waupaca and contains the South Branch Little Wolf River as the major water feature. Drainage generally flows northeastward through small tributaries to the Little Wolf River and eventually drains into the Wolf River and the Lake Winnebago/Fox River/Green Bay system. This watershed ranks high for lakes and groundwater and low for streams according to the WDNR's draft Upper Fox River Basin Plan (1997). No point-source dischargers are contained within the Planning Area for this watershed.
