Water Patrol Funding

DNR State Boat & Water Safety Grant Program

The Douglas County Sheriff's Office Water Patrol receives grant funding dollars from the State of Minnesota Department of Natural Resources to aid in our water patrol enforcement and safety activities. The monies received are directly used to off-set Deputie's salaries.

In accordance with State grant funding guidelines, Counties receiving State boat & water safety grant funding are required to display grant information. This also applies on other DNR state grants as well. Please see Water Patrol Grant Information under Resources to view funding information that was utilized by the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.
