Perceptions of Illinois district conservationists toward the use of the hydrologic unit approach for natural resource planning and management

This study is concerned with the use of the hydrologic unit (HU) approach as a management strategy employed in the 98 United States Department of Agriculture, Soil Conservation Service district offices in Illinois. The approach is the management technique or strategy of working with local people to solve community natural and human resource problems, using a nine-step resource planning process. The nine-step process centers on facilitating the processes of planning and seeking financial and technical aid for community leaders and other residents so that they may resolve their resource concerns.
