Watershed Stewardship Toolkit
CWC’s Stewardship Toolkit is designed to help individual homeowners/renters and small business owners learn about steps they can take to reduce runoff impacts from their properties, and improve the hydrologic functioning of their local watersheds. The Toolkit is organized into these main categories:
I. Stormwater Runoff Reduction
II. Stormwater Runoff Quality Improvement
III. Stormwater Runoff Quantity and Quality Improvement
IV. Integrated Stormwater Management Case Studies
V. Large-Scale Stormwater Management
For each section, specific alternative stormwater management measures are outlined, with basic installation techniques and a list of resources for additional information and technical advice. For each alternative measure, the format of the Toolkit is organized as follows:
- Basic description and image of alternative stormwater management measure
- Associated stormwater management benefits
- General installation procedure
- Considerations
- Resources
The Stewardship Toolkit is also available as a single PDF with background information and discussion by the authors.
