| Abstract |
| This report reviews state nonpoint source (NPS) control programs in the thirteen North Central states. Agricultural land uses cover 69 percent of this region, with forests covering another 20 percent. State assessments show that forest practices are among the more modest sources of nonpoint source pollution. Every state in the region has some type of NPS control program, and seven of the thirteen states have developed Best Management Practices (BMPs) specifically for silviculture. There have been few attempts to monitor rates of BMP implementation in this region. |
