This paper discusses the application of an analytical framework using physical and economic models to an Illinois watershed. The results show the cost and effectiveness of the Rural Clean Water Program (RCWP) as implemented in the watershed, compared with several implementation alternatives to reduce nutrient and sediment loading to a local lake used for water supply and recreation. The cost effectiveness of the program in the watershed could have been increased by using program expenditures to achieve more widespread adoption of conservation tillage and certain crop rotation(s) instead of implementing structural measures. Application of the modeling approach to pre-project analysis could have helped rank areas of the watershed for treatment and provide other insights for improving the design and efficiency of the project. |
