New Stream Restoration Manual

FIFTEEN FEDERAL AGENCIES collaborated to produce Stream Corridor Restoration: Principles, Processes, Practices, a manual that sums up current knowledge about stream corridor ecosystems and describes a range of available restoration techniques. You can order this manual as a book ($76) or on CD-ROM ($65) by calling (800) 553-6847; you can also download it free of charge from the Department of Agriculture web site: www.usda.gov/stream restoration.

 
The San Francisco Bay Shoreline Guide is packed with glimpses of the history, culture, and nature of the Bay Area and is a complete guide to the 400-mile Bay Trail. The Northern California Independent Booksellers Association chose it as an ideal holiday gift in 1995. Ask for it in your local bookstore or order from the Coastal Conservancy by sending a check for $16.18 ($14.95 plus sales tax) payable to Coastal Conservancy, 1330 Broadway, 11th Floor, Oakland, CA 94612.
