Featured Projects.....
Biochar- and Iron- Enhanced Pond Filter Benches
The Shingle Creek and West Mississippi Commissions are in the midst of a research project aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of stormwater ponds and other features. This grant-funded project is field testing a concept that has been successful in the lab: adding biochar and iron filings to sand filters. This augmentation can eliminate over 95% of bacteria in stormwater as well as dissolved and particulate phosphorus.

Crystal Lake Management Plan
Crystal Lake in Robbinsdale is a popular lake in the heart of the City. Three parks, a fishing pier, and a boardwalk provide public access to enjoyment of the lake by boaters, anglers, cyclists, and walkers. But water quality in the lake could be better. Starting in 2021, the Watershed Commission and City will partner on several actions to help restore not only water quality but also the ecologic integrity of the lake.
