Study Submitted to MPCA

Posted by Nat Kale - May 29, 2013 - Lower Prior Diagnostic Study

The past year has seen a lot of activity with the Lower Prior Diagnostic Study, including two public meetings and a lot of revision to the report; now the final document is out!  I’m pleased to say that our revising has been completed, and we have submitted the report to the MPCA for approval.  We’re due to hear back from them by the end of June, and we’re hopeful that the report will be accepted.

Once the report is approved, the watershed to Lower Prior Lake will be moved forward in line for any future grant requests.  We have a lot of great implementation projects to stabilize and improve the quality of water in Lower Prior, and this is an exciting step toward putting them in the ground.
