Project Overview
The Minnesota Waterfowl Association will be purchasing the Sieg Slough in Watonwan County. MWA will work with the DNR Lands and Minerals to follow the required steps to obtain a proper appraisal for the property. Following the appraisal and subsequent acquisition of the property, MWA will then donate it to the DNR to become the Sieg WMA. The property consists of 65 acres, of which 12 are CRP, 18 acres are cropland and 36 acres of lake. This property will provide public access and control over the outlet channel for a future control structure site.
