About URRWMO
The URRWMO is a joint powers organization including the Cities of St. Francis, Oak Grove, Nowthen, Bethel, and portions of the City of East Bethel. A small corner of the City of Ham Lake also falls within the URRWMO. The WMO Board is made up of representatives from each of these cities and townships.
This organization seeks to maintain the quality of area lakes, rivers, streams,
groundwater, and other water resources across municipal boundaries. Resources
of particular importance to the URRWMO include the Rum River, Seelye Brook,
Ford Brook, Cedar Creek, and numerous ditches that drain to the Rum River. This
stretch of the Rum River is designated as a state Scenic and Recreational Waterway.
Lake George and East Twin Lakes, the primary recreation lakes in the watershed
are also of high priority, in addition to many smaller lakes and wetlands.
