The Watershed Project Management Guide, by Thomas E. Davenport
This book presents an approach to watershed management based
on a collaborative process that responds to common needs
and goals. This recommended process consists of a series
of four basic phases: assessment, planning, implementation,
and evaluation. The four-phase approach helps watershed
practitioners develop a plan consistent with the recently
released USDA-EPA Watershed Management Planning and Implementation
Process guide. The process can be used to implement a management
strategy to meet the load allocations required by an approved
TMDL, the goals of Source Water Protection Plan, USDA programs
such as EQIP, or Section 319 projects. To order, visit
www.crcpress.com or call 1.800.272.7737.
