Several Watershed District programs are specifically required under MN Rule 8410 and the District’s Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit. While the District takes seriously its general roles and responsibilities, it tailors those programs to first address priority issues identified through a public process. The following programs reflect that commitment and are intended to establish the programmatic framework to facilitate a community response to issues currently identified in the SWWD Watershed Management Plan and others that emerge during the course of implementation. That focus is reflected in theDistrict’s mission statement. “To manage water and related resources of the District in cooperation with our citizens and communities.”
