Project Funding
Yahara WINS supports new, innovative projects that help reduce phosphorus runoff into local waterways in the Yahara Watershed.
Yahara WINS is soliciting ideas for projects ideal for collaboration and support that positively impact waterways in the Yahara watershed.
Proposed projects can target either urban stormwater or agricultural runoff, the two primary contributors of phosphorus to waterways. Project ideas should have a modeled phosphorus reduction.
Submissions are accepted at Anytime
