Summit Geographic Scope
As defined in the 2005 MOU with Sand County Foundation, this initial Summit will include the geographic scope of the Mississippi River, its floodplains from its headwaters to its delta, and major tributaries and distributaries of exceptional ecological value within the geographic boundaries of MVD (for example, but not limited to, the Wisconsin River Basin, the Illinois Waterway, the Hatchie river and bottoms, the Lower White river and Basin, the lower Arkansas River, the Yazoo River and Basin, and the Atchafalaya River and Basin.
In the future, the effort will expand to include the entire watershed, such as the Missouri River and Ohio River basins and others.
