New Watershed Initiatives Report

March 1, 2001

A useful report entitled "Toward understanding New Watershed Initiatives", co-authored by Steve Boren and Kenneth Genskow, of the University of  Wisconsin in Madison, has just been published and is available for downloading through "Library" at www.tu.org

 The report focuses on the "new watershed approach".  It details how the "new approach" evolved and what makes it different from other watershed approach  initiatives in the past.  The report also includes a section on how to evaluate new watershed initiatives as well as descriptions of the key factors in achieving success. This report is a great tool for groups that are starting new projects or are interested in evaluating current projects.
