On February 28, the Livingston County Commissioners met with the Executive Director of Green Hills Regional Planning Commission to discuss the watershed planning for the Thompson River Watershed. In 2022 The Thompson River, Weldon River, and No Creek in Livingston, Grundy, Daviess, Harrison and Mercer counties were put on Missouri's 303 (d) list of impaired waters for E.coli. A local watershed group led by Green Hills Regional Planning Commission Executive Director with the support of the Livingston County Commissioners has been meeting with county Soil and Water Conservation District boards in order to gain their perspectives on reducing E-coli contamination in these watersheds and to ask them for letters of support for a 9-Element Watershed Plan which if approved would fund voluntary practices that cans reduce pollutant loading in watersheds. Support for nonpoint source pollution reduction plans is generated through education and outreach activities designed to inform the public and stakeholder groups about water quality issues and what can be done to reduce pollutant loading in watersheds.
