Abstract
The value of the wood products and the costs to administer, prepare, and complete the work are typically the sole economic factors studied in a NEPA analysis of forest restoration proposals or fuels reduction projects. Normally, watershed protection or restoration is part of the purpose and need for action and as such necessitates some level of disclosure in NEPA documentation. In some cases, such as a municipal watershed, water yield can be an extremely important attribute to carry through the analysis. The goals of this fact sheet are to 1) provide practitioners with some scientific literature they can use as a reference in their NEPA analysis on watershed outputs, 2) show some methods to determine watershed and other resource outputs, and 3) identify some basic technique that practitioners may consider to value these variables.
