Watershed Districts

logo-capitol-watershedCapitol Region Watershed District

Watershed districts are local units of government that work to solve and prevent water-related problems. Because water doesn’t follow political boundaries, the boundaries of CRWDs follow those of a natural watershed. Working with local partners, CRWD strives to protect, manage and improve the District’s water resources by monitoring stormwater quality, issuing erosion control and permanent stormwater management permits to development sites, installing permanent stormwater best management practices (BMPs) that reduce stormwater runoff and remove pollutants, providing water quality improvement grants to residents, supporting citizens who engage in water quality protection practices, and more.
