What we do
Mission Statement
The Muskrat Watershed Council’s mission is to use scientific knowledge to engage people and communities in identifying and reducing nutrient loading from all sources within the Muskrat Watershed. The organization aims to improve water quality for local communities and empower people to take action for healthier land and water.
Geographic Focus
The Council operates within the Muskrat Watershed, which spans more than 500 square kilometres in Renfrew County, Ontario. The watershed includes Muskrat Lake, the Muskrat and Snake Rivers, Lake Dore, Black Creek, Mink Lake, Olmstead Lake, and many creeks, streams, lakes, and wetlands. Activities are focused across five municipalities: North Algona Wilberforce, Laurentian Valley, Admaston/Bromley, Whitewater Region, and the City of Pembroke.
Program Highlights
Key programs include engaging the community in water quality improvement projects and offering educational events. Recent initiatives involve restoring Muskrat Lake’s shoreline with native plants to reduce erosion, slow runoff, and lower nutrient input. The Council partners with farmers to create vegetative buffer zones that help filter agricultural runoff and enhance habitat for wildlife and pollinators. Regular meetings and science nights promote public involvement and learning about watershed health.
