" Targeting Conservation Practices to Reduce Sediment to the Whitewater and Zumbro Rivers","Olmsted Soil and Water Conservation District","Local/Regional Government","2012-12-10 13:35","The Whitewater River is one of Minnesota's most scenic and best loved rivers. The Whitewater's pools are home to brown, brook and rainbow trout, making the river one of the state's most popular trout fishing areas. Yet, water quality is of concern.  Abnormal rainfall events in Southeastern Minnesota have increased stormwater runoff which equates to increased flows, erosion and sedimentation into the Whitewater and other local streams like the Zumbro River.
Sediment has been the leading factor affecting the water quality of streams in Olmsted County. In cooperation with local landowners, this project will implement conservation practices such as terraces, water and sediment control basins and grassed waterways. These projects will reduce peak flows which will help mitigate down stream flooding and sediment delivery to local rivers to the Whitewater and Zumbro Rivers.

For example, students will explore the role of slavery in American history by examining historical newspapers, letters and laws and by watching a series of dramatic portrayals of Dred and Harriet Scott who lived at Fort Snelling in the 1830s. These projects will be made accessible to teachers around the state and around the country in 2013.","","The Minnesota Historical Societey is developing new curriculum materials for K-12 students and also making them accessible to teachers around the state and around the country.","","","","2013-06-30","20122013","$382757","","","Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund","Ongoing","","","Laws of Minnesota for 2011 Chapter 6, Article 4, Subdivision 5, Programs.","Kevin","Maijala","Minnesota Historical Society","345 Kellogg Boulevard W.","St. Paul","MN","55102","651-259-3442","","Education/Outreach/Engagement","Minnesota Historical Society","","Statewide","",""

In cooperation with funding from the Boy/Swft Lake Association and the Initiative Foundation Healthy Lakes and Rivers program, this project will result in Subsurface Treatment System (SSTS) compliance inspections on up to 290 properties on Boy Lake and 69 on Swift Lake. The project will also result in an SSTS record review and inventory of all properties on the two lakes. 
The Lake Association will provide volunteer coordination assistance for the project. A trained and certified SSTS professional inspector will be retained to conduct the inspections. Cass County Environmental Services Department provides logistical support, oversight and fiscal management of the project. Systems that fail to meet standards will be brought into compliance using procedures available in rule and ordinance.

	This grant application is being submitted for funding for the implementation portion of the Scott County Historical Society’s upcoming exhibit “Marking Time:  The Rituals of Life & Death”.  Virtually every society in the world practice rituals marking the significant transitions between birth and death.  Using artifacts, photographs, text, and hands-on interactives, this exhibit will examine those rituals within the historical context of Scott County (Christian and predominately Roman Catholic), new immigrants to the county (mainly Hispanic and Asian), and traditions we can easily find in the Twin Cities area (Judaism and secularism).

	The Minnesota Historical Society is developing an extensive, hands-on exhibit designed to bring the rich cultural tapestry of Minnesota into vivid focus.  Visitors to “Then Now Wow” (the exhibit's working title was ""Our Minnesota"") at the Minnesota History Center will explore the state’s distinctive places and meet the people who have made their homes here.

	Opening in late 2012, the exhibit will incorporate a wide range of engaging, interactive, story-driven features, supporting the state history standards and complementing the Northern Lights state history textbook. It will also have traveling exhibits to augment the Minnesota Historical Society’s onsite and distance-learning classroom programs.

	“Then Now Wow” is being designed primarily for schoolchildren visiting on field trips and for families with children. The exhibit is at the core of a major institutional initiative to reinvent the field trip for 21st-century learners.

	The exhibit’s themes and topics, as well as the methods designed to engage students in learning about them, are being developed to meet the needs of teachers who are facing dwindling resources for history education and of students who are coming of age in a time of rapid global and technological change.

	ACHF funding was appropriated to ""Then Now Wow"" for the 2010-2011 biennium but the funds are available until expended.  Private fundraising for “Then Now Wow” is underway. Fundraising efforts will continue in earnest until the exhibit opens in late 2012.
