Abstract
This paper examines interview data with state level watershed entities and survey data from Ohio planners. These sources provide insight into state watershed action plan processes and the involvement of planners in water quality protection in general and watershed level planning activities in particular. The paper begins with a discussion of the complex watershed planning setting in Ohio. It moves into the results of the survey and interviews to understand the role of planners in this environment. The paper concludes with an assessment of the potential policy implications of the results and directions for future research. The results of this paper are important to ongoing efforts to improve and protect surface water quality in the U.S.
