Watershed Restoration Coalition's Implementation of the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program
The Watershed Restoration Coalition of the Upper Clark Fork (WRC) is a nonprofit organization founded in Deer Lodge in 1999 with membership from conservation districts, local governments, and landowners. WRC is a primary contractor to the Montana Natural Resource Damage Program (NRDP) for oversight of restoration of priority tributaries and terrestrial areas in the Upper Clark Fork River Basin.
This year, the WRC is partnering with the USDA Farm Service Agency and the NRDP in implementing a voluntary Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) to enroll up to 66,400 acres in the upper Clark Fork River Basin. The CREP is intended to improve water quality, reduce soil erosion, reduce the amount of sediment, phosphorous, and other pollutants entering waterbodies, restore wetlands, maintain and enhance grasslands on uplands associated with adjacent riparian areas and create and improve habitat for terrestrial and aquatic wildlife.
