Welcome!
 
CARCD's Guide to Watershed Project Permitting, formerly titled the Guide to Stream Project Permitting, was originally published in 1996.  The guide is used by Resource Conservation Districts, watershed groups and partners to assist with the basics of the permitting process.  Revised in 2002 and almost double the number of pages, the new "Guide" now includes new sections, updated information and web resources.  The guide is organized into eight sections.  An explanation of the contents of each section is listed below.
