A watershed is a region of land that all drains into another body of water, and includes rivers draining to lakes or oceans. We live in the Elm Fork Trinity Watershed. It is important to monitor the quality of our watershed because it provides us with our water we use for everyday things, and is also the place where we go to do recreational activities in the water among other things. The benefits of the watershed are reducing gas emissions, providing a habitat for fish and other organisms, and reduces the chances of flooding and fires is minimized. Also, there is water recreation available for everyone living here to take part in.
