Watershed

Watershed analysis includes evaluation of:
  1. Potential for landslides (mass wasting).
  2. Potential risk of soil movement from roads or exposed forest soils (surface and point erosion).
  3. Improving watercourse crossings and road drainage (road conditions).
  4. Shade cover and tree size near streams (riparian function).
  5. Large logs, spawning gravel, and deep pools in streams (stream channel condition).
  6. Habitat and distribution of fish (fish habitat condition).
