Watershed Surveys and Planning Program

The purpose of the Watershed Surveys and Planning Program, is to assist Federal, State, local agencies, local government sponsors, as well as program participants to protect and restore watersheds from damage caused by erosion, floodwater, and sediment, to conserve and develop water and land resources, and solve natural resource and related economic problems on a watershed basis. The program provides technical and financial assistance to local people or project sponsors, builds partnerships, and requires local and state funding contribution.

Resource concerns addressed by the program include watershed protection, flood prevention, erosion and sediment control. Both technical and financial assistance are available. After approval, technical and financial assistance can be provided for installation of works of improvement specified in the plans.
