						South Platte Headwaters Watershed Assessment We have completed a wildfire/watershed assessment and prioritization for the South Platte Headwaters Watershed. The assessment followed a procedure prescribed by the Colorado Watershed Protection Data Refinement Work Group titled “Protecting Critical Watersheds in Colorado from Wildfire: A Technical Approach to Watershed Assessment and Prioritization”. See the Watershed Wildfire Protection Group page for more information. The South Platte Headwaters Watershed Assessment identified, prioritized, and recommends measures to protect those watersheds that provide or convey critical community water supplies from the adverse effects of post-wildfire hydrologic changes, including flooding, erosion, and deposition. The report and related documents can be found below in the Documents section. A slide show of the maps from the report can be viewed below in the Maps section. Please contact Brad Piehl for further information. South Platte Headwaters Watershed Stakeholders Thank you for your work and help making this project a success.
