Washburn County Land & Water Resource Management Plan
The County Land and Water Resource Management Planning Program was created
through amendments to Chapter 92.10 of the Wisconsin Statutes in Act 27 of
the 1997-1999 Biennial Budget Bill. The goal of this planning process was
to develop a program that:
- Rely on a locally led process for plan development and implementation
- Allow for maximum flexibility with various program grants and funding sources
- Encourage comprehensive watershed based efforts without excessive planning
- Require the seamless integration of programs and funding sources
- Make use of a wide variety of implementation tools
- Ensure meaningful program evaluation and accountability
This process forged the way for the development of the Washburn County Land & Water Resource Management Plan.
The Washburn County Land & Water Resource Management Plan was developed to guide the Land & Water Conservation Department and other agencies that manage land and provide natural resources education in their efforts to protect water resources.
