Watershed Level Adaptation Planning

I read the article, Seeing Trends, Coalition Works to Help a River Adapt

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/21/science/earth/21river.html?_r=2&smid=fb-nytimes&WT.mc_id=SC-SM-E-FB-SM-LIN-STC-072011-NYT-NA&WT.mc_ev=click

I then visited the website of one of the groups referred to in the Times article (the unusual coalition...), which is here  http://nisquallyriver.org/

It is an interesting example of a cross sector (tribal/private sector/local government/federal) watershed defined group cooperating on preservation and restoration of the resources in their watershed. Also, keeping an eye on adpting to climate related future local conditions.
