RCWD Drainage System Information
Portal
Background
In 2009 the Rice Creek Watershed District received a grant from
the Board of Soil and Water Resource to aid in the completion of a
drainage records modernization project. The project involved
three primary components. 1) To scan and inventory the
available historic records for each drainage system 2) To create GIS
layers from the information 3) To make the information accessible
through a website. The RCWD has completed 27 drainage systems
and the results are accessible through this portal.
