Livingston Watershed Advisory Group (WAG)

General Information

The Livingston Watershed Advisory Group (WAG) is a collaborative membership group that was originally formed to develop watershed management plans for the Huron Chain of Lakes and Upper Shiawassee River watersheds in Livingston County.  The plans describe current conditions of natural resources and land use impacts, explore existing and future threats to the river systems, and prescribe actions for protection and restoration.  The WAG now meets to discuss ways to implement activities that were recommended by those plans.  They are also interested in adding the Red Cedar River watershed.

For more information, see the WAG’s FAQ.  Additional background information on the WAG can be found on the Livingston County Drain Commissioner’s site.
