The Watershed Protection
Program at the C~ty of Denton
· The C~ty and LINT c,o wrote a Erant to FPA
to provide $$ to fund per"-onnel for one
year Expires September 2001
· Phase I of the Program started m January
2001
· H~red one spe,aahst (Ph D ) and two
interns (1 $ years oomblned field
expmen~ MS students at UNT IA$)
What is Non-Pmnt Source Pollut~on*
· Today non pmnt source
(NPS) pollution remmns
tho Natmn's largest somce
of water quahty problems
It*s the mmn reason that
approximately 40 pere, ent
of om surveyed rivers
lakes and estuaries are not
clean enough to meet basic
uses such as flslung or
swimming
How to deal with NPS Pollutlon'~
· Our approach is to work with
neighborhoods, l~'oups and the general
pubhc
· City provides protection and serv~e~
However, cannot solve NPIi poilutmn
without public's active role
· WPP can dotermme problem areas and
sul~est BMPs that make $$ go htrther
with more success

Goals of Watershed Protection Program

ooncht~ons that oan be used to
understand trends relahng to t~me

ne~ghborhoods/landuses)
· Deterrmno areas of greatest concern
fi'om sub-bas~ns to watershed scales
· Bnng relevant mfo~ii-mtion to pubhc vm
