Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix Watershed District recognized as 2023 Watershed District of the Year
In 2023, CMSCWD launched a comprehensive lakeshore protection and restoration program for the ten most popular lakes in the watershed district, developed stormwater treatment projects for Big Carnelian and Big Marine Lakes, and began planning for a future restoration project on Mill Stream in Marine on St. Croix. The lakeshore program, in particular, illustrates the importance of working collaboratively and building relationships with landowners.
