The Star Tribune published a piece by Joseph Barisonzi, Lower Minnesota River Watershed District (LMRWD) Board of Managers President, highlighting the Minnesota River's urgent need for basin-wide protection. Read the full opinion exchange here: startribune.com/minnesota-rive…
Newsworthy! Read about Lower Minnesota River Watershed District (LMRWD) in Eden Prairie Local News: bit.ly/49hVBPQ The latest story highlights the importance of community involvement from Board of Managers volunteers like Jesse Hartmann, who served from 2018-2023.
In December 2023, Manager Jesse Hartmann ended his service of nearly eight years. The LMRWD extends its appreciation and best wishes to Jesse for sharing his talents on the Board of Managers. To learn more, visit: lowermnriverwd.org/news.
The @LowerMinn had a great 2023. We hope you did too!
Check out this great video from our friends #WashingtonConservationDistrict about how excessive salting harms our waterbodies—and what you can do to help. bit.ly/3CDppIk
Ready for snowshoeing or skiing? DYK you can also find areas for snowmobiling in the @LowerMinn? Get out and enjoy your local Minnesota River watershed! Tag a friend and have some winter fun! How do you connect to the Minnesota River? bit.ly/LMRWDTrails #FirstDayOfWinter
Chloride from deicing salt is polluting our local waterbodies at increasing rates. Just 1 teaspoon of salt is enough to permanently pollute 5 gallons of water. Learn steps to use less salt and be salt smart this winter. lowermnriverwd.org/makeadifferenc…
Join @LowerMinn for its upcoming Board meeting. Meetings are at the Carver County Government Center on the 3rd Wednesday of the month at 7pm unless otherwise noted. Can’t make it in person? You can join virtually by using the link on the meeting page. bit.ly/40afXYj
Remember, ice is never 100% safe. Check ice thickness frequently this winter. bit.ly/3VymZDl lowermnriverwd.org/recreation/wat…
Even in the winter, remember to pick up after your pet. Pet waste contains bacteria that can make animals and people sick and pollute local water, whatever the temperature outside. bit.ly/3hCGCdN poopfairy.university #ThereIsNoPoopFairy Twin Ports RSPT
@LowerMinn works to address chloride concerns in the #TwinCities. As part of the @Hennepin Chloride Project a chloride reduction grant was created to help reduce salt loading to local water with our partners @RPBCWD #9MileCreekWD #RichfieldBloomingtonWMO. bit.ly/4144rhy
We want to thank our fantastic group of citizen advisory committee members. This year our CAC volunteered at community events, advised on our mini-grant program, took time out of their days to engage and learn with us, and so much more! Thank you! bit.ly/3MYcXJ5
