		Watersheds range in size from under a square mile to hundreds of thousands of square miles (the Chesapeake Bay watershed, for example, has an area of 66,388 square miles).
		But a watershed is more than a collection of streams and adjacent land areas--it is a natural resource system in which humans and other organisms interact with the land and its associated resources for sustenance, shelter, and security.
		A watershed is the area drained by a stream and all of its tributaries.

	About the Santa Ana River Watershed
		The EPA identifies the San Jacinto watershed as a separate watershed; for SAWPA's purposes, the San Jacinto watershed is considered to be part of the Santa Ana river watershed.
		The watershed is bounded on the south by the Santa Margarita watershed, on the east by the Salton Sea and Southern Mojave watersheds, and on the north/west by the Mojave and San Gabriel watersheds.
		Groundwater in the watershed is highly controlled by the geology of the area, both the configuration of bedrock and by the extensive faulting.

	TDEC: Water Pollution Control
		The Watershed Approach is a decision making process that reflects a common strategy for information collection and analysis as well as a common understanding of the roles, priorities, and responsibilities of all stakeholders within a watershed.
		The Watershed Approach is based on the concept that many water quality problems, like the accumulation of pollutants or nonpoint source pollution, are best addressed at the watershed level.
		Watersheds are appropriate as organizational units because they are readily identifiable landscape units with readily identifiable boundaries that integrate terrestrial, aquatic, and geologic features.

	NJDEP New Jersey Division of Watershed Management - Basic Information
		A watershed is the area of land that drains into a body of water such as a river, lake, stream or bay.
		How the land in a watershed is used by people, whether it is farms, houses or shopping centers, has a direct impact on the water quality of the watershed.
		As a watershed becomes developed, trees, shrubs and other plants are replaced with impervious surfaces (roads, rooftops, parking lots and other hard surfaces that do not allow stormwater to soak into the ground).

	Recommended Watershed Terminology
		The term "watershed" is commonly used to refer to an area; specifically, the area in which all surface waters flow to a common point.
		Use of the term "watershed" to describe the area drained by the Columbia River as well as the area drained by the Deschutes River is technically correct - it just does not provide insight to the fact that the Deschutes is one small tributary to the Columbia River.
		While this is technically appropriate for a specific watershed, the term causes problems when we try to use the term to compare or equate, even on a relative scale, the size of different watersheds.

		The erosive zone is the part of the watershed where typically the majority of the water and sediment for the river originate.

	Adopt-a-Watershed
		The goal is to assist the students in learning science skills while developing a sense of stewardship towards our local watersheds and the fish and wildlife resources within them.
		For example, if the first grade is required to learn about life cycles, then that may be used as an opportunity for that class to incubate steelhead eggs in their classroom, learn about anadromous fish life cycles, and take part in a fisheries restoration project.
		The program gives students a chance to observe up to thirteen years of change in one watershed and to develop their ability to recognize the effects of these changes in their own lives.
