TEAM MEETINGS:
Locations and agenda for team meetings will be listed here as the information is available. |
Custodian: NRCS
Goal: This team will revise a grouping of four NRCS Conservation Practice Standards (CPS) related to stream restoration projects: CPS 395 Stream Habitat Improvement and Management, CPS 580 Streambank and Shoreline Protection, CPS 582 Open Channel, and CPS 584 Channel Bed Stabilization. Specific objectives to revise these NRCS state technical standards include the following:
The standard revisions will identify procedures for stream assessments and establish the hydraulic criteria for proportioning a stable stream channel, floodplain, and planform system. Revisions will be based on proven scientific methods that will improve waters of the state, protect private interests, and conform to applicable state laws and regulations. Initial Review Anticipated: Late 2020 Broad Review Anticipated: Early 2021 Publication Date: 2021 Work Team Status: This stakeholder team will begin meeting in March 2020 and meetings will be held approximately monthly until the standard is completed. Details on meetings, including agendas and meeting notes, will be available on the left side of this website as the work develops. Team Resources: Federal Conservation Practice Standards:
