Laguna Watershed Knowledgebase

This table lists the “beneficial uses” of the Laguna de Santa Rosa sub-basin, as defined by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, as of the year 1996. Note that the portion of the watershed covered by this table does not correspond one-to-one with the working definition of the Laguna watershed used throughout this report. This sub-basin includes only the waters south of the confluence of the Laguna de Santa Rosa and Santa Rosa Creek (which is situated just south of the Guerneville Road Bridge.) The working definition of the Laguna watershed, used elsewhere in this report, is much larger than this and includes all of Santa Rosa, Mark West, and Windsor Creeks up to the confluenece with the Russian River.
