Oregon Watershed ProfilesOregon Watershed Profiles

The Natural Resources Conservation Service in Oregon has produced Subbasin Profiles to provide a natural resource snapshot and overview of each Oregon 8-Digit Hydrologic Unit. The Subbasin Profiles organize into one document a wealth of information that local conservationists, landowners and others can use to: identify conservation opportunities and direct technical and financial resources to the appropriate subbasins. They provide a concise description of each subbasin’s natural resources, resource concerns, conservation needs, and ability to resolve natural resource issues. These profiles organize into one document what most local conservationists and landowners already know about their watersheds. Click here to access the Watershed Profiles.
