Pomme de Terre River

Clean Water Fund

Clean Water Fund

After 2 straight years of Clean Water Fund awards, the Pomme de Terre River Association sought to continue the restoration and protection efforts in the watershed. 3 grant funds were applied for to implement BMPs, to characterize the watershed through mapping, and to begin a Conservation Drainage initiative. Though only one application was successful, the Pomme de Terre was awarded $480,000 in grant funds to continue the implementation momentum! Through the Clean Water Fund and BWSR, the Pomme de Terre is taking the lead role in conservation in the Upper Minnesota River basin. In 3 years of successful applications we've brought nearly $1.1 million dollars in tax generated grant funds back to rural Minnesota.
