The Drainage Work Group was first established by the Legislature as a stakeholder group to advise
the preparation of the Public Drainage Ditch Buffer Study, which was published by the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) in February 2006. This Study Work Group has discussed a range of
topics regarding buffer strips and drainage and developed a number of consensus recommendations. Following the initial study, they agreed to continue meeting to aid the legislature as a consensus group for future issues.

THE LICA CREED
Land, the foundation of the nation,
the basis of all wealth,
the heritage of the wise, the thrifty and prudent,
the poor man’s joy and comfort,
the silent partner of man,
the producer of food, fiber and fuel,
the basis of factories,
the foundation of banks.
All that man builds is from the land.
We often take it for granted, or even abuse it,
and yet many unthinkingly and unknowingly pass the land by.
What man finally does with the land
will be the deciding factor in his survival.
