This document is a Strategy or an approach to achieve the 40% nutrient reduction goal for the Upper Potomac watershed. It represents a collective effort over the past year among all levels of government, and extensive input by various interest groups and citizens. The local governments, in particular, have spent considerable time and effort and provided numerous comments on the draft Strategies. The Strategy shows how the goal may be achieved through specific programs and practices, called "nutrient reduction options." This strategy is meant to be flexible in order to incorporate these changes so that the goal can be met in the most efficient and practical manner.
