This federal multi-agency document is intended to aid contractors, landowners, volunteers, individuals, and agency staff in developing stream corridor restoration projects in both urban and rural settings. The document discusses processes, principles and practices appropriate for corridor restoration. Some packages for other computer systems, including IBM-compatible PC's, are included. Also included is a set of programs designed to predict the steady state stream temperature within a single stream segment for a single time period. Companion programs predict the solar radiation and segment shading parameters.
