Valley City Wetland Management District

The Valley City Wetland Management District is located in the U.S. state of North Dakota and consists of 76,000 acres (307 km2).

The wetland district is a substation of the Arrowwood National Wildlife Refuge Complex, overseen by the U.S.

The wetland district is in portions of 5 counties in the Prairie Pothole Region that was created by the retreat of glaciers 12,000 years ago, during the last glacial maximum.

Farming is widespread in the wetland district and the majority of the land managed is under private ownership.

Hundreds of small lakes and ponds as well as numerous streams provide abundant water sources for migratory bird species, white-tailed deer, beaver, pronghorn and other smaller mammals.
