DEP for Watershed Planning: Middle Cedar Watershed Management Plan

The Middle Cedar Watershed Management Plan outlines a 20-year strategy to protect water quality, reduce flood risks, and promote soil health across communities in the watershed through collaborative planning and public engagement. Led by Emmons & Olivier Resources, Inc., the plan uses technical analysis, public outreach, and hazard assessments to prioritize conservation efforts in both urban and rural areas. Focused subwatershed plans offer tailored approaches for high-priority landscapes and communities, guiding effective conservation actions at the local level. Tools like the Daily Erosion Project and the Conservation Pyramid Framework support data-driven decision-making and encourage ongoing stakeholder involvement for continuous improvement.
