Water Quality
Clifty Creek Watershed Project
Our specific goals for this resource include:
Encourage stream bank clean-up activities
For the next four years increase buffers to 100% on both sides of Clifty Creek.
Promote additional buffers for all county watercourses.
Seek funding sources for water sampling and volunteer opportunities
Educate rural landowners about the importance of Nutrient and Pest Management Practices to both water quality and economics.
Promote fencing of livestock out of watercourses and forests through the promotion of the USDA EQIP Program
A perfect example of a riparian buffer
