The Upper Wakarusa River Watershed (UWW) and Clinton Lake have been identified as high priority areas by KDHE for restoration and protection through implementation of Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) goals. The watershed has a TMDL for fecal coliform bacteria and total suspended solids. The lake has a TMDL for eutrophication caused by excess nutrients.
A Watershed Restoration and Protection Strategy (WRAPS) was developed by the Kaw Valley Heritage Alliance and released in February of 2003. The report provides a studied compilation of UWW research and conservation efforts and establishes water quality objectives for the entire watershed. Subwatersheds have been prioritized for goal implementation.
