Conservation in Action
RED DEER COUNTY NEWS OFFICIAL NEWS FROM RED DEER COUNTY CENTRE JULY 2015 CONSERVATION IN AcTION COUNTY HELPS LANDOWNERS CONSERVE 70 ACRES By Ken Lewis, Conservation Coordinator On June 24, 2015, Red Deer County viewed three new conservation projects: a riparian management fence, a watering system to help conserve wetlands, and a watering system to help conserve a creek. For local landowners like Audrey Daines, wetlands have always been an important feature in providing clean water and a healthy landscape. By fencing off their wetland, it will remain a vital place for local wildlife and ground water. Henrik and Jeralyn Rasmussen rent the pasture where they installed their portable watering system. They made sure to purchase enough waterline and wiring, so that they can move the system around to WHAT’S INSIDE: multiple paddocks and water sources as part of their grazing rotation. The creek that Conservation Partners is helping conserve with an off-site watering system is part of the Transit Use on the Rise...........Pg. 2 Waskasoo Creek watershed, which flows right through the City of Red Deer before joining the Red Deer River. So, the connections between these pastures and the perceptions that the general public has about Air Quality Response Plan ....Pg. 8 agriculture in Red Deer County are very direct. Home Safety Quiz ................Pg. 20 These three new projects are just three of the 33 plus projects that Red Deer County landowners have done or are planning to do this year with funding support from Conservation Partners and/or the Alternative Land Use Services program. -
