To facilitate the development of a common agenda, we are conducting a survey of the stakeholders, including landowners, business owners, residents, visitors, and other parties with an interest in the watershed. The survey lets us understand the desires of the watershed community and incorporate them in the plan.

We are conducting the development and implementation of the Little Manistee River Watershed Management Plan through an open, inclusive process that includes representation of all interests in the watershed. The Plan should involve area citizens; year round and seasonal residents and youth; schools, community colleges and universities; riparian owners; landowner associations; businesses and business groups; agriculture; all forms of government; including Tribal government; citizens and civic groups; students of all ages; recreators; conservation organizations and others.
We expect to hold Public Meetings of Watershed Stakeholders in May and June of 2018. Please watch for notifications and plan to attend.
Participants in the plan are encouraged to work at the most engaged level they are interested and able to participate at. This can range from communicating by email with the contacts below to attending steering committee meetings or sitting on the steering committee and/or subcommittees and participating on specific tasks you are interested in.
