Project Title: Building Wisconsin Watershed Organizations' Ability to Protect their Waters from Conservation Activities
Fall Grant Award: $6000
Project Summary:
This project will 1. develop and pilot a training module to help citizens advocate for better erosion control and stormwater management in particular construction projects, and 2. publish a guide to help them get stronger local protections from construction projects generally (i.e. by making systemic changes rather than by focusing on one project's impact). There is currently much confusion on the part of interested citizens for how to advocate for development that is less damaging to local water resources. We will build stronger advocates by helping them work more effectively with developers, state agency staff, and local officials.
