[ARCHIVED] Pheasant Branch Creek — Where Does All That Water Come From?

Pheasant Branch Creek — Where Does All That Water Come From?

We hear the term “watershed” a lot in reference to water resources, but what does that term really mean? Focusing on Middleton’s beloved Pheasant Branch Creek, we’ll explore how water moves from the edges of the watershed all the way to Lake Mendota. We’ll also take a look at the famous (or infamous) rain event and flood of August 2018 to get a glimpse of how climate change is already impacting Middleton. 

Thursday, March 17, 2022 at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom

Sign-up is required. Register online at Middleton Public Library / Events.

This presentation will be a joint session of the Friends’ Conservancy Days and the Sustainability Committee’s “Sustainable U” series. 

The featured speaker will be Jim Bachhuber, a retired stormwater consultant who is an occasional instructor at UW-Madison. Jim also serves on the City of Middleton’s Water Resources Commission and has served on the Board of the Friends of Pheasant Branch Conservancy.
