Opportunities for Expanding Watershed Management in the Sierra Nevada
Publication: Watershed Management and Operations Management 2000
Abstract
Following a comprehensive evaluation of environmental conditions in the Sierra Nevada in the mid-1990s, several watershed management strategies have begun that seek to improve water quality and aquatic habitat. Although these different approaches by federal agencies, state agencies, local jurisdictions, and citizens groups are proceeding independently, these various efforts may converge in part and should ultimately improve conditions in the streams of the Sierra Nevada. This paper explores the potential of watershed management in the highlands of California.
