Blanchard River Watershed Partnership involved in two Riley projects

The Blanchard River Watershed Partnership is currently involved in two Riley Creek projects, according to Phil Martin, director.

• The BRWP has two Great Lakes Basin grants in the Allen County portion of Lower Riley Creek and in Middle Riley Creek watersheds this year. Both grants are for Best Management Practices with the farmers. Martin said that there is still funding available and persons with questions should call him

• BRWP will conduct water quality monitoring during late June and September.

“We will again monitor 21 sites on the Blanchard River, Lye Creek, Riley Creek and Little Riley Creek,” said Martin. Volunteers are needed to help. Call Phil Martin at 419-422-6487 if you would like to help.

In one addition partnership news item, Bluffton Mayor Judy Augsburger became a board member of the partnership this winter.
