Table 4 <br />Multiobjective Approaches to River Corridor <br />Management: <br />Keys to Success <br />Planning <br />Goals <br />• Involve the full range of actors critical to ultimate multiobjective implementation in original <br />goal setting and planning. Look for common denominator interests among these actors. <br />• Establish clear, multiobjective goals from the outset through consensus-building <br />processes. <br />• Identify the full range of problems needing to be addressed early in the process and make <br />multiobjective problem solving efforts. <br />• Initially consider the broadest possible range of options and approach any stereotypical <br />approach or solution cautiously. <br />Approach <br />• Proceed with the assumption that local and landowner support is key to assessment, <br />planning, and implementation; it often will be for regulation, acquisition, projects, etc. <br />• Approach river and stream channels, adjacent bank areas, and adjacent floodplains and <br />wetlands as hydrologically, geomorphologically, and ecologically interrelated units. This <br />approach is taught in basic hydrology and ecology courses, but rarely implemented. <br />• Disturb natural flow regimes, sediment regimes, water quality, wetlands, and other natural <br />systems and processes as little as possible. Avoid destroying natural system functions and <br />values that will only need to be replaced. Manage for a hydrologic continuum and main- <br />tenance of equilibrium conditions in river profile. <br />• Question the common assumptions that the narrowest possible floodplain or floodway and <br />the fastest flow rates are the best in the circumstances; this may be, but it should be <br />demonstrated. Then look at multiple flood storage, pollution control, recreation, habitat, <br />erosion reduction, and other values of a broader flood flow area. <br />• Approach each situation with factual specificity and recognition of natural values of the <br />channel, bank, wetlands, and floodplains -- "let the landscape speak". <br />• Plan each river segment and particular parcel of land on a multidisciplinary basis to achieve <br />as many objectives as possible. Keep in mind that this sounds more difficult than it is. <br />(continued) <br />1s
