A watershed can be simply defined as the land contributing water to a stream or river above some particular point. Natural processes and human activities in a watershed influence the quantity and quality of water that flows to the point of interest. Despite the obvious connections between watersheds and the streams that flow from them, water problems are typically looked at and dealt with in an isolated manner. Many water West Walker River Watershed Management Plan 2 problems have been treated within the narrow confines of political jurisdictions, property boundaries, technical specialties, or small geographic areas. Many water pollution problems, flood hazards, or water supply issues have only been examined within a short portion of the stream or within the stream channel itself. What happens upstream or upslope has been commonly ignored. The so-called watershed approach merely attempts to look at the broad picture of an entire watershed and how processes and activities within that watershed affect the water that arrives at the defining point. -

Entire Exhibit Provided. Meeting Date: 5-7-08 Goals for Rural Public Transportation Safety for seniors and disabled Reliable Affordable Enhance quality of life Maintain independence without reliance on the automobile Ability to remain in the community of their choice Transit for seniors, disabled and ……you and me. Helping Nevadan’s remain mobile. Senior Centers, Disabled Support Organizations and Tribes. Over 45 Nevada rural communities and reservations have NDOT provided vehicles. Jump Around Carson Nevada has been consistently one of the fastest growing states for seniors and retirees. Almost one million rides each year given through the NDOT/ Federal Transit Administration pass through Funding programs. Our state partners are Division for Aging Services, Rehabilitation, DMV and Transportation Services Authority (PSC). The Advisory Committee for Transit brings all the interested parties together several times a year to discuss important common issues. Fallon CART Bus The American Public Transit Association estimates that for each dollar invested on public transit, it returns six dollars to the local economy. NDOT administers approximately 10 million dollars of Federal rural transit funds annually for programs statewide. Each program requires a local match that can be difficult for local providers to raise. We are on track for administering about $20M in the next few years. Rides are given on buses for almost all activities including cultural and tribal functions, transportation to senior citizen centers for meals, shopping, medical, government services and social activities. -

The Sheep Eater Shoshone – the Tukudeka Objective: Students Will Write a Historical Fiction Account, Using Historical Facts To
The Sheep Eater Shoshone – The Tukudeka Objective: Students will write a historical fiction account, using historical facts to make it realistic, of a week spent as a Sheep Eater Shoshone. Connections: Social Studies Writing Informational Text Note Taking Background: See “History of the Sheep Eaters”, which also can serve an informational text for students to read. Procedures: 1. Show a photo of a Sheep Eater Shoshone (Tukudeka) and ask students how they think “Sheep Eaters” earned their name. Explain that they will be learning more about one of the last groups of people to live away from modernization and then they will “become” one of these people and tell a story about a short segment of their year. It is suggested students write about one particular event that takes place over a day or week. 2. Either read the “History of the Sheep Eaters” to class or have students read it on their own. You may suggest students take notes or highlight information to help them write their story later. 3. You may wish to show them the entire segment of the movie “Sheep Eaters: Keepers of the Past” found on the USB drive or on YouTube. This is a 27- minute film accounting historical background of the people. Perhaps even starting the film at 2:59 would bypass some slow parts. The film uses excerpts from G.A. Allen’s book written in 1913 when he interviewed the last living member of the Sheep Eaters. (the actual book is in PDF on the USB drive called “Sheep Eaters by W.A. -
