Description: The Watershed Condition Classification feature class represents data on Watershed Condition on Forest Service lands in HUC12 (from the Watershed Boundary Dataset) watersheds that contain more than 5% USFS ownership. The feature class also includes data on high priority watersheds identified in the Watershed Condition Framework (WCF) process. The WCF data identifies priority watersheds, rationale for their designation as such, and information on Watershed Restoration Action Plans. The data are compiled from the Watershed Condition Assessment and Tracking Tool (WCATT) application within the NRM (National Resource Manager: a suite of applications, each of which collects, stores and reports data for various Forest Service business areas).
