The DriversThe Drivers
• The WBD is a necessary conceptual framework for any watershed management work
• There is a great demand for the WBD by all levels of government
• Once completed it will be a component of a suite of Base Decision Support Layers that:– Can be vertically and horizontally integrated

• Agency support is highly variable
• Delineation methods vary state to state
• Addressing cooperators needs to preserve existing watershed boundaries
• Inconsistent funding
• Edge-matching

• Delineate to the 30 foot contour, (can use toe of shore face)
• Keep bays together as a classic, if possible
• Delineate to 10 foot contour in estuaries and bays
• Take classic watersheds in bay to 10 foot contour
