| Abstract | The effects of a land use plan to restrict urban development in areas critical to the water resource system are identified through empirical studies. Specifically, relationships are established between amount, density, type, and location of urban development, on the one hand, and stream water quality and stream channel enlargement on the other. The amount of open space with such a plan as compared to that with normal development is determined. |
