This powerpoint presentation contains a description of a modelling
methodology which was used in New Castle County, DE to identify
priority natural resource areas which need protection during
the watershed build-out process. GIS tools and impervious surface
cover overlays were used to identify wetlands, forested tracts,
riparian buffers and open spaces areas that needed to be protected
through zoning and plan review mechanisms in order to preserve
or restore the subwatershed as the watershed. |
