The Blanchard River Watershed has received word that the U.S. EPA in Chicago has given final approval to the nine element non-point source implementation strategy plan (NPS-IS Plan) written for The Outlet-Blanchard River watershed in Hardin and Wyandot County.
The EPA requires that there be an approved NPS-IS Plan written for each 12-digit HUC watershed before that watershed can receive federal funding. There are 30 HUC-12 watersheds in the Blanchard River Watershed.
