Success Criteria Near Term (1-5 years) Eliminate Blight Eliminate Invasive Weeds Increase Aquatic Invertebrates Mid Term (3-7 years) Lower Water Temperature Reduce Turbidity Increase Salmon Population Long Term (7-10 years) Increase Native Fish and Wildlife

Conclusions 1)Communities manage watersheds 2)Community involvement, watershed scale assessment and consensus planning generates commitment to science-based and community- supported action.
