We invite you to comment on the draft 401 Water Quality Certification for DNR Fisheries S Branch Root River Bank Stabilization in Fillmore County

DNR Fisheries proposes a mix of grading and toe stabilization with native seeding to reinforce 390 linear feet of South Branch of the Root River providing fish habitat and angler access.

No mitigation is required for this project.

A 401 Water Quality Certification is required when an individual, business, or property owner proposes construction-related activities near a navigable lake, river, stream, or adjacent wetland. The MPCA reviews projects to ensure they will not violate Minnesota's more protective water quality standards. The 401 certification becomes an enforceable component of the associated federal license or permits issued under the Clean Water Act.
