Abstract

The Monocacy River Watershed Council, organized in November 1949 with broad representation of the various local interest and civic organizations, is in process of developing a program of conservation for the water and land resources of that area. One of the major objectives is to regulate the streamflow and reduce the silt load of the Monocacy River and its tributaries.
