The Upper Mississippi River Conservation Committee (UMRCC) is dedicated to promoting and preserving the natural and recreational resources of the Upper Mississippi River System through wise use, conservation, and management. With a focus on diverse habitats and wildlife, the UMRCC works to maintain the river as a critical natural resource, providing a home for a variety of species and offering iconic recreational opportunities for fishing, hunting, boating, wildlife observation, and outdoor adventures.
Comprised of natural resource managers from Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, and Wisconsin, the UMRCC was collaboratively formed in 1943 to coordinate preservation efforts and promote resource management through cooperative surveys, studies, and communication. Through partnerships with various agencies, the UMRCC continues to play a vital role in ensuring the long-term health and sustainability of the Upper Mississippi River ecosystem.
