Find My Watershed
Everyone lives in a watershed.
Find yours.
On a large scale, the Greater Lansing area falls within the Grand River Watershed which eventually drains into Lake Michigan. The urbanized area around the City of Lansing lies within a portion of the Upper Grand River Watershed which has been broken into three smaller watershed areas to aid in analysis.
-Grand River Watershed
-Looking Glass River Watershed
-Red Cedar River Watershed
Since watersheds cross political boundaries, seventeen of the communities that fall within these defined local watersheds are a part of a cooperative effort and have formed the Greater Lansing Regional Committee for Stormwater Management (GLRC) to address water quality in our lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands.
