Pollution study links farm runoff to Chippewa River pollution
The DNR 208 plan on the lower Chippewa River basin assigns agriculture as the major nonpoint pollution source. Meetings drew few farmers, though findings stress erosion control and nutrient management. A state cost sharing program for best management practices aims to fund conservation measures locally with public hearings planned in August.
