A $17 million project to repair stream erosion is nearing completion in Polk County. Why it matters: The investment could serve as a blueprint for the rest of the state's waterways if researchers can demonstrate measurable water quality improvements. Catch up quick: Polk County launched the initiative in 2024, with the first restoration projects starting in 2025. It covers 11 stream restoration projects spanning nearly 10 miles in Ankeny, Altoona, Mitchellville, Des Moines and Pleasant Hill.
