Proceedings of an international symposium on the restoration and protection of streams, held in conjunction with the 2003 World Water and Environmental Resources Congress in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, June 23-26, 2003. Sponsored by the Urban Streams Technical Committee of the Urban Water Resources Research Council and the Urban Stream Restoration Technical Committee of the Watershed Council of the Environmental and Water Resources Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 48 papers promoting interdisciplinary scientific and ecological approaches for the planning and design of stream restoration projects with a special emphasis on urban environments. The health of streams can deteriorate as a result of channel degradation, channel instability, loss of habitat, loss of infrastructure, and poor water quality. Communities and watershed managers need scientifically, ecologically, and economically sound approaches to mitigate the impacts of urbanization on city watersheds. Topics include: legislative and regulatory setting: federal, state and local programs; master planning: urban drainage and stream protection; case studies: planning projects, successful programs and examples, management tools, decision making, and monitoring programs; defining the desired stream condition: physical, chemical and biological; monetary and value-based tools for assessment, analysis and design: physical, chemical and biological; interdisciplinary integration management tools: stream buffers and low impact design; design criteria for urban stream restoration; monitoring: how to measure performance; and research needs: institutional and funding needs.
