This Project Grant award from the Department of Agriculture National Resources Conservation Service under the Wetland Mitigation Banking Program (CFDA 10.933) provides $684,338.00 to Iowa Agricultural Mitigation Inc., a non-profit organization, to close the last seven remaining agricultural drainage wells (ADWs) located in Wright County, Iowa. This public-private partnership project is being conducted in collaboration with IAMI, IDALS, and several area farmers and landowners. The project aims to close these final ADWs, which will help producers meet their wetland conservation compliance responsibilities needed to maintain eligibility for many USDA programs. The project is expected to be completed by September 29, 2025.
