The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is encouraging the
development of rapid watershed assessments in order to increase the speed and
efficiency generating information to guide conservation implementation, as well
as the speed and efficiency of putting it into the hands of local decision
makers.
A Rapid Watershed Assessment (RWA) is a set of initial estimates of where
conservation investments might best address local resource concerns. The
information is intended to be used along with other relevant information to
assist individuals, communities, non-profits, local, state and federal entities
and others to evaluate future conservation activities on a watershed basis.
The assessments for each watershed are listed below. The assessments are
intended to be used for planning purposes only and can be updated as new
information becomes available. Clicking on the map below will enable access to
the individual resource maps used in the assessment.
