Tripp, D.B., P.J. Tschaplinski, S.A. Bird and D.L. Hogan. 2009. Protocol for Evaluating the
Condition of Streams and Riparian Management Areas (Riparian Management Routine
Effectiveness Evaluation). Forest and Range Evaluation Program, B.C. Min. For. Range and

Resource Purpose |
This handbook is for anyone with a basic working knowledge of streams and/or riparian habitats, including forest and range planners, developers, and other land users. It is not essential that a person have expert knowledge on any aspect of the subject. In fact, generalists are apt to be more consistent in their assessments because they are less likely to interpret the questions and their indicators, or get overly involved in detailed measurements at the expense of other indicators. |
