Brown's Creek Watershed District has partnered with Oak Glen Golf Course to restore 1,300 linear feet of Brown’s Creek as it flows through the golf course adding more than two acres of native buffer along the stream bank. This project began in 2011 with a $210,000 Clean Water Fund grant. After the project is complete in June 2012, Brown’s Creek will be six degrees cooler on the warmest days, bringing the water temperature from lethal to tolerable and thus increasing the stream’s ability to support trout reproduction.
