<br />001649 <br />Increased 319 <br />Funding for Tribes <br />and Lakes in FYOO <br />(continued) <br /> <br />Projects, and Phase 3 Post-Restoration Monitoring Studies. The guidance further points out that <br />Clean Lakes activities must be consistent with various aspects of the Clean Lakes regulations (40 <br />CFR 35.1605-3) and must be included and treated as part of the state's section 319 work program. <br />Finally, the guidance includes new data elements for Clean Lakes activities for the Grants <br />Reporting and Tracking System to enable EPA and states to track progress in responding to the <br />Senate Appropriation Committee's suggestion. <br /> <br />Other issues discussed in the Supplemental Guidance include: <br /> <br />. Using section 319 funds to support the EPNU.S. Department of Agriculture's 1999 <br />Unified Animal Feeding Operation Strategy. <br /> <br />. Using incremental 319 dollars for development and implementation of watershed <br />restoration action strategies. <br /> <br />. Prioritizing rivers designated as "American Heritage Rivers." <br /> <br />. Improving the tracking and reportirtg process. <br /> <br />In a memo to EPA regions and states regarding the new guidance, Robert Wayland, Director of <br />EPNs Office ofWedands, Oceans, and Watersheds, was very optimistic about the future of the <br />nation's lakes and other waterbodies, saying, "When we look at how much progress has been <br />achieved by states and their partners during the past 10 years, there is much to be proud of. I <br />believe that with states' renewed focus on solving priority problems with a broad array of effective <br />technical, programmatic, and regulatory tools, our accomplishments will accelerate during the <br />next 10 years and result in the restoration of many of our currendy impaired waterbodies, while <br />protecting those that may be threatened. This is indeed an exciting time for all of us who are <br />working to protect our nation's waters." <br /> <br />[For more information, please contact Oov Weitman, Chief.

Nominations for showcasing were <br />accepted during 1998, final selections were made in early 1999, and now a new web site spotlights <br />the hard work that the selected project teams have undertaken. The 12 sites were selected for their <br />ability to showcase the application of stream corridor restoration technology and for improving the <br />community, the environment, and water quality as endorsed in the Clean Wilter Action Plan. <br /> <br />The showcased watershed projects ate: <br /> <br />. Duck Creek Watershed (Alaska) <br /> <br />. Big Nance Creek Watershed (Alabama) <br /> <br />. Gila River Corridor Recovery Project (Arizona and New Mexico) <br /> <br />. Suwanee River Watershed (Georgia/Florida) <br /> <br />. Bear Creek Watershed (Iowa) <br /> <br />. Sun River Basin (Montana) <br /> <br />. Blackfoot Watershed (Montana) <br /> <br />. Carson River Watershed (Nevada) <br /> <br />. McCoy Creek Watershed (Oregon) <br />. Lititz Run Watershed Alliance (Pennsylvania) <br /> <br />. White River Partnership Watershed Restoration Project (Vermont) <br /> <br />. Duwamish-Green River Watershed (Washington) <br /> <br />The selected projects represent a variety of geographic locations and conditions; a balance of <br />management and design; strong local, tribal, and state leadership; public and private land use mix; <br /> <br />MARCH 2000, ISSUE #60 <br /> <br />NONPOINT SOURCE NEWS-NOTES <br /> <br />7 <br />
