Because a water body receives water from a <br />large area, management of that water body needs to focus on the entire watershed. Poorly managed <br />land or increased development pose serious threats to the healthy function of the watershed. <br />Goal: Maintain or improve the current hydrologic regime of the Valley Creek <br />watershed. <br />Current Valley Creek is a world class trout stream with good water quality and <br />Conditions: physical habitat. Hydrologic changes cycle within the watershed will impact <br />the creek. <br />Threats and Development pressures threaten the continued healthy function of the <br />Opportunities: watershed.

The plan will also identify responsible parties for <br />implementing the recommended actions.
