Lake Bronson Watershed Runoff Reduction Project - Phase III
Lake Bronson is the only major recreational lake in Kittson County. The project is a continuation project from FY2012 and will reduce runoff and decrease movement of sediment, nutrients and bacteria by targeting, prioritizing and installing vegetative practices and installing Side Water Inlets within the Lake Bronson watersheds. Emphasis will be placed on the South Branch of Two Rivers. There is a portion of impaired stream reach as identified by the Minnesota Pollution Control, which directly feeds Lake Bronson. State Ditch 90, 91 and 95, subwatersheds within the Two Rivers Watershed District, will also be targeted as they flow into Lake Bronson.
