Abstract
The Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District adopted its Watershed Management Plan in late 2003 which includes a number of programmatic, policy, land-use and capital improvements requirements and recommendations for local governments in the areas of stormwater management and watershed protection. In the first year after adoption, District staff worked closely with its member cities and counties in 2004 to begin implementing the plan’s recommendations by providing training, technical assistance and additional resources for the local governments. This paper reports on those activities and the progress that local governments have made to implement the plan.
