A Watershed Moment is a biannual newsletter produced by the DCR Division of Water Supply Protection (DWSP) for owners of land protected by Watershed Preservation Restrictions (WPRs). Each edition provides information on land management, wildlife, and stories about fellow landowners who have a WPR on their property.
The original print WPR newsletter, Watershed Currents, has been renamed and upgraded to this electronic news format. The electronic format will not only save paper, but will allow DWSP to easily share interesting articles, photos, videos, maps, and resources, including a “Notes from the Field” Story Map section.
