Surface Water Protection Branch

We are pleased to share an update to the Surface Water Protection (SWP) System Viewer that makes it easier to explore statewide watershed planning and implementation efforts.

The SWP System Viewer has long included access to past and current Clean Water Act 319 nonpoint source pollution projects. With this update, you can now also view watersheds with approved watershed-based plans, as well as those with plans in development, under review, or needing updates. These watershed‑based plans are available on a new map within the SWP System Viewer, giving you access to both resources in one convenient location.

This enhancement supports our goals of improving transparency, strengthening capacity for watershed restoration, and making information easier for partners, agencies, and communities to find for coordinated watershed management. If you have any questions or feedback, we welcome hearing from you.
