The Red River Retention Authority is a joint organization comprised of members from the Red River Joint Water Resource District and the Red River Watershed Management Board. Their main objective is to coordinate and implement retention projects in the Red River of the North watershed, with a focus on flood protection and damage reduction. They actively seek federal funding and serve as advocates for local projects in the regulatory process.
The Authority conducts surveys to gather insights from producers and landowners regarding flood control in the Red River Basin. They also organize events and tours to educate participants about biomass harvesting and flood control initiatives. Recently, Brian Fuder was appointed as the Executive Director, bringing with him a wealth of experience in emergency management, civil engineering, and community resilience. He is committed to building upon the progress made and strengthening efforts to mitigate flood-related challenges in the Red River Valley.
