Growing Green Communities is strongly committed to improving the quality of Camp Creek and its watershed by reducing soil loss, which will benefit landowners by preserving their topsoil and improve the water quality of Camp Creek by reducing sediment loading of the creek. To accomplish the goal of reducing soil loss and improving water quality, Growing Green Communities has worked with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources to identify areas of concentrated flow paths (CFPs) within the Camp Creek Watershed using LiDAR topographic mapping technology. A goal of this project is to identify sites expected to have the greatest impact in reducing soil loss and to install Best Management Practices (BMPs) at these sites. Landowners and other project partners will work to develop the most effective BMPs for each site. After the BMPs are designed and constructed, a conservation easement will be recorded to protect the BMPs. GGC plans to record 40 acres as easements. The easements will be purchased by Growing Green Communities and donated to a qualified conservation organization for long term management and maintenance.

The Iowa Watershed Improvement Review Board (WIRB) was created by the Iowa Legislature and signed into law by the Governor in 2005 as Senate File 200. This statute is now codified in Iowa Code Chapter 466A. The fifteen-member Board conducted eight meetings throughout the year in-person or via teleconference. Meetings were held January 24, February 27, March 13, May 15, August 7, September 20, October 6, and December 18. Attachment 3 lists the board members and their organization affiliation. The Board appointed a five-member subcommittee to review and revise the Request For Applications (RFA) documents and submit recommendations to the full Board.
