Protecting the midwest's environment and natural heritage

We’re fighting to protect some of Iowa’s most pristine lakes and streams, and we need your help. Iowa’s legislature and the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) are considering a rule that would protect the 6 Iowa Great Lakes, including Lake Okoboji and Spirit Lake, 29 cold water trout streams and 3 warm water streams in Northeast Iowa. These lakes and streams would be classified as "Outstanding Iowa Waters," a designation that would strictly regulate pollution and ensure that these waters remain clean, world-class destinations for tourism and recreation.
