Apply Now for DNR Grant to Help Improve Your Local Lake, River or Stream
Posted 20 January, 2012
The
DNR is now accepting applications for a grant designed to help
locally-led groups develop water quality improvement efforts in Iowa
communities.
Groups can request Watershed Planning Grants from
$10,000 to $50,000 to develop plans to improve a local river, lake or
stream on the state’s impaired waters list. Offered by the DNR’s
Watershed Improvement Program, the grants help local groups passionate
about improving water quality create a Watershed Management Plan, which
identifies problems in the watershed and proposes solutions for better
water quality. Making changes in the watershed (the land that drains to
a lake, river or stream) can reduce pollution reaching our waters.
“The
first step in applying for one of our grants is to give us a call, so
we can discuss your group’s vision for water quality and talk about the
resources available to you, as well as answer your questions about the
grant application process,” said Steve Hopkins, who coordinates DNR
Watershed Improvement grants. “Call your basin coordinator to get
started.”
Basin coordinators include:
Adam Kiel, Upper Des Moines and Raccoon River basin
515-242-6149 or Adam.Kiel@dnr.iowa.gov
James Martin, south central and southeast Iowa
641-472-8411 or James.Martin@iowaagriculture.gov
Jeff Tisl, northeast Iowa
563-422-6201 or Jeff.Tisl@iowaagriculture.gov
Bob Waters, western Iowa
712-243-2913 ext. 207 or Bob.Waters@iowaagriculture.gov
Applications
for Watershed Planning Grants and Watershed Implementation Grants are
due April 2, 2012 by 4:30 p.m., Central time. For application forms,
contact information and additional details, visit here or contact Hopkins at 515-281-6402 or Stephen.Hopkins@dnr.iowa.gov.
The
Section 319 program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
provides DNR funding for nonpoint pollution programs, including
Watershed Planning Grants.
