Watershed Summary 

The Mitchell Creek Watershed (located in Grand Traverse county) was a 4 year project which dealt with problems of rapid urban development.  It was approved under the CMI administrative rules and was funded under section 319. Stream sampling and field surveys were conducted to determine the quality of the water.  Grand Traverse Bay Watershed Team meetings and educational activities were held to increase public awareness.
