Ranking System for Prioritizing the Implementation of Restoration Projects across Three Streams in Central Minnesota
Maxwell,Joshua, Weiss,Jeff, Sobiech,Scott, Braun,Shanna, Blese,Clair, and Jordan, Michelle. October 2018. Ranking System for Prioritizing the Implementation of Restoration Projects across Three Streams in Central Minnesota. Watershed Science Bulletin. Center for Watershed Protection, Ellicott City, MD. 16 pages. Stream, restoration, Minnesota, creek, CRAS Prioritizing creek restoration projects can be challenging, especially when reaches span multiple and/or interacting waterbodies. The Creek Restoration Action Strategy (CRAS) is a tool for identifying stream sections in greatest need of restoration, beginning with consistent assessment of creek conditions. In developing the CRAS, eight prioritization categories were identified and grouped into two tiers: Tier I—infrastructure risk, channel…

The Effectiveness of Stormwater BMPs in Reducing Toxic Contaminants in Urban Runoff
Schueler, T., Youngk, A., Williamson, L. 2017. The Effectiveness of Stormwater BMPs in Reducing Toxic Contaminants in Urban Runoff: A Literature Review for the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. Watershed Science Bulletin June 2017. Center for Watershed Protection, Ellicott City, MD. 19pp. Toxic contaminants, such as pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and metals, are of interest to many watershed managers who want to safeguard aquatic and human health. This article summarizes literature findings on the degree to which structural urban best management practices (BMPs) that are currently intended to decrease nutrient and sediment pollution can also reduce toxic contamination of waterways. Such multiple benefits could…
