The Iowa Economic Development Authority and Department of Natural Resources today announced funding for six Watershed Management Authority (WMA) applications. Each recipient of the seed money will form a WMA to reduce future flood risks and improve water quality in a watershed. The recipients include Story County, which received $25,060 to work on Squaw Creek, and Dallas County which received $29,350 to work on the Middle-South Raccoon River. The funding was provided through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Disaster Relief allocation.
