Title
State Funded Best Management Practices - BWSR (eLINK) [Minnesota]
Description
This layer represents locations of best management practices (BMPs) reported to the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) via the eLINK grant reporting system from 2003 to present. This dataset includes all mapped BMPs associated with completed and closed grants. Practices connected with open grants considered “in progress” are included here only if an installed date has also been reported. Please be advised, any practice(s) associated with open grants are subject to change until all grants have final reports submitted, approved and grants are closed. The attribute HAS_OPEN_GRANTS_YN can be used to determine if a practice may be subject to change in the future. The eLINK data represents BWSR grants funded through BWSR via the State General Fund, Clean Water Fund, and Bonding funds. Practices funded through the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) Clean Water Partnership and 319 programs and Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) well sealing grants are also included. This data set does not include BWSR Reinvest in Minnesota (RIM) easements, which are collected in a database outside of eLINK. BWSR RIM easement data is provided through a separate dataset on the MnGEO Commons., BWSR is responsible for managing a wide range of grant programs that help conserve, protect, and restore Minnesota’s soil, surface water, and groundwater resources. These data have been collected as part of BWSRs statutory responsibilities for managing these grant programs through BWSRs eLINK grant reporting system. This dataset is the largest publicly available Statewide collection of BMPs. These data are used by local governments to track progress towards planning goals over time and also used by BWSR and partner State agencies to report progress towards state goals via the Clean Water Accountability Act Report, Clean Water Performance Report, and the Minnesota Nutrient Reduction Strategy. For more information on BWSR’ eLINK grant reporting system, see: https://bwsr.state.mn.us/elink, BMP data collected on closed grants between 2003 and the current date. Data is updated daily.
