Have you seen the recent water resource-related columns in the Anoka County Union Herald? The League of Women Voters has been working with local water experts to publish a series of monthly columns on local rivers and land use. This collaboration between the League of Women Voters Upper Mississippi River Region and other environmental groups in Anoka County has produced many columns already. Below are some that have been published and are available online:

• “Mississippi memoirs” by Chris Lord (Anoka Conservation District)

• “Work to preserve water resources continues” by Gretchen Sabel (citizen member of the Anoka County Water Resources Management Task Force)

• “River gets attention from local watershed organization, students” by Jamie Schurbon (Anoka Conservation District)

• “Who owns the water?” by Jamie Schurbon (Anoka Conservation District)

• “Who is responsible for overseeing the Rum River Watershed?” by Todd Haas (Lower Rum River Watershed Management Organization)

Be sure to keep an eye out each month for a new water-related column in the Union!
