Best Management Practices Implemented in Lower Bear River Presented by: Nour Atallah Nov. 2016

OUTLINE Introduction Study Area Watershed Delineation Watershed Characteristics GIS Application Water Quality Tracking

INTRODUCTION What are Best Management Practices and why we need them? Water Pollution Control – Clean Water Act! Types: Structural Non-Structural 

INTRODUCTION The Lower Bear – Malad River Watershed (LBMR) suffers from loads of Phosphorus and Sediments loads caused by point and nonpoint sources. The TMDL (2002) study recommended several BMPs action to reduce these loads.

INTRODUCTION Utilization GIS in BMPs evaluation! The spatial presentation can help the water managers in providing prospective vision and judgement of how effective was the implementation of BMPs within the watershed. [Targeting the critical areas (sources of pollution)]

STUDY AREA The LBMR watershed is located in Box Elder County in Northern Utah

WATERSHED DELINEATION
