Hydrology concerns include maintaining and improving adequate water supplies, maintaining and restoring water quality, and improving overall conditions of streams, floodplains, and riparian ecosystems. Other topics include aquatics, upland forest vegetation, wildfire risk, botanical resources, noxious weeds, vertebrates, fire and fuels, non-forest vegetation, and rare plants.

"The document addresses primarily Umatilla National Forest lands within the watershed. The
primary exception is the aquatics analysis, which was based heavily on an extensive subbasin
summary of the entire Potamus subbasin completed by the Northwest Power Planning Council
(Gephart and Nordheim 2001)."
Map appendix is dated October 2004.
