MANAGEMENT PLAN PURPOSES
This watershed management plan will be used as a tool to accomplish improved management
through education and voluntary cooperation. The plan describes existing natural resource
conditions, defines watershed goals, identifies planned future conditions, describes practices
that landusers can use to improve natural resource management, and schedules watershed
activities.
The SWCD board and watershed steering committee will use the plan to provide guidance to
farmers about land and water resource management. Local organizations will use the plan to
develop new financial incentive programs, continue existing programs, and request additional
technical and financial assistance. County government will use the plan to update the county
comprehensive plan. State and federal agencies will use the plan to prioritize efforts and as
guidance to determine technical and financial needs. The Higginsville City Lake Watershed
Management Plan will also be used in the development of other regional, state, and national
plans and programs.
