The mission of the Lincoln SWCD is:

  •  to identify existing and potential problems and opportunities for the protection, management and development of water and related land resources; and

  •  to develop objectives and carry out a plan of action to promote sound hydrologic management of water and related land resources and effective environmental protection.


Priority Concerns:

  • Ground Water Protection for the Verdi Well Field.

  • Surface Water Quality Deterioration priorities being Nutrients and Bacteria focusing on two identified TMDL sites: Lake Shaokatan and the South Branch of the Yellow Medicine River.

  • Erosion and Sediment Control on agricultural land primarily gully erosion and concentrated flow with several priority areas being the South Branch of the Yellow Medicine River Watershed, Norwegian Creek, Coon Creek, Lake Benton Lake and Dead Coon Lake.

  • Lake Management Improvement (water quality) and Recreational Opportunities targeting Lake Benton, Lake Shaokatan and Lake Hendricks.

  • Surface water runoff and Drainage addressing runoff volume and water quality through drainage management.

    The plan also addresses the following:
