INDIAN CREEK WATERSHED ASSESSMENT

This questionnaire was developed in order to provide the public with a means of participating in the Indian Creek watershed assessment.  Answers to these questions will help us develop watershed-related programs and activities that meet the needs of the Indian Creek watershed community.  Participation in this questionnaire will ultimately serve to increase public awareness of local watershed issues and concerns.

This information is collected anonymously.  If you desire a response, further information, a subscription to our watershed newsletter, please indicate this with your name and contact information in the "Other comments or issues" section below.
