The Munuscong River Watershed
The Chippewa East Mackinac Conservation District has received a grant from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment to perform a planning study for the Munuscong River Watershed. The project began in February 2010.
The Munuscong River Watershed project is located in central Chippewa County in Michigan’s Eastern Upper Peninsula. The Munuscong Watershed consists of approximately 149,000 acres, dominated by forest (56%) and
agriculture (34%) with 10% consisting of urban, surface water, and fallow areas.
The watershed includes tributaries: Little Munuscong River, and School, Desormeaux, Fletcher, Taylor, Hannah, Rapson, and Parker Creeks.
