Property owners in the 68 square mile Dick's Creek Little Muddy watershed area may be notified by letter of their property assessment. The plan, backed by Butler and Warren counties, would make the watershed a sub district of the Miami Conservancy District with public hearings before nine county judges. Local funding would cover most of the $1,347,000 project, with $147,000 to be raised locally, and federal funds anticipated if the sub district is approved.
