The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District is the regional governmental unit responsible for managing and protecting the Minnehaha Creek Watershed's water resources, including and immediately west of Minneapolis, Minnesota. The District was established in 1967 under the Minnesota Watershed District Act, which recognizes that hydrologic boundaries rarely match political boundaries. The 1955 act established watershed districts to integrate water management efforts between city, county, and state agencies.
The District covers approximately 178 square miles that ultimately drain into Minnehaha Creek, which then enters the Mississippi River. The watershed includes natural treasures such as Minnehaha Creek, Lake Minnetonka, The Minneapolis Chain of Lakes, and Minnehaha Falls. There are eight major creeks, 129 lakes, and thousands of wetlands within the MCWD.
