The Urban Sub-Watershed Restoration Manual Series Is Now Here!

The Center for Watershed Protection has spent the better part of the last year developing the Urban Sub-Watershed Restoration Manual (USRM) series, a practitioner's guide to restoring urban watersheds.

Presented in a series of 11 manuals, the USRM presents practical and useful information on the actual techniques of watershed restoration that can be conveniently accessed and used by planners, engineers, stream biologists and municipal officials. Each manual is profusely illustrated and presents detailed field methods, practice specifications, costs, applicability and tips on implementation.

Together, the USRM manuals introduce an integrated framework for urban watershed restoration, outline effective techniques for assessing urban watersheds, and provide a comprehensive review of watershed restoration techniques.

Thanks to a grant from the EPA Office of Water Management, you can download these manuals in .PDF format for FREE from our website at: http://www.cwp.org/USRM_verify.htm

through September. Color hard copies are also available for a nominal charge.
