Nonpoint Source Pollution
Nonpoint Source Program
Michigan's Nonpoint Source (NPS) Program assists local units of government, non-profit entities, and numerous other state, federal, and local partners to reduce nonpoint source pollution statewide. The basis of our program is watershed management and our program works with stakeholders to develop and implement plans to protect the watersheds of the state. We look forward to working with you to protect and improve Michigan's water resources.
