GRAND MARAIS CREEK WRAPS: 
- Technical Advisory Committee (TAC)

The TAC is formed with members representing expertise needed to ensure a proper technical review process and to aid in the collaborative process of the WRAPS. TAC Committees are required to meet periodically to review stages of the WRAP during its multi-year process.  Project managers (PMs) from the MPCA, RLWD, and EOR attend all TAC Meetings.

Thanks to the Clean Water Land and Legacy Amendment, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has been able to provide the Red Lake Watershed District and other organizations with funding for watershed restoration and protection (WRAP) projects. The Clean Water Land and Legacy Amendment has also recently funded the collection of additional data to guide assessment, restoration, and protection efforts through the surface water assessment grant (SWAG) for water quality monitoring projects.  See MPCA's Watershed Approach to Restoring and Protecting Water Quality.
