Capitol Region Watershed District (District) is a special purpose local government unit that manages water resources within portions of Ramsey County. It covers 40.6 square miles of Saint Paul, Falcon Heights, Lauderdale, Maplewood, and Roseville. The District was established in 1998 by the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources and is governed by a five-member Board of Managers. The District seeks to achieve its vision of: Cleaner waters through innovative, resilient, effective and equitable watershed management in collaboration with diverse partners.
To achieve its vision, District staff implement a range of programs, projects, and capital improvements designed to protect, manage, and improve the resources within its jurisdiction, including creeks, wetlands, lakes, natural areas, and the Mississippi River.
