Prioritization of watershed for integrated landuse planning purposes simultaneous with forest boundary delineation would start the process on determining what are the forest areas needed for protection purposes and what are needed for other purposes. Such activities are really the critical start of sustainable forest management where the use for forest lands are determined based on criteria that would best serve the society in an optimum manner. T his would allow the watershed/forest managers and other watershed/forest users realize the many and interrelated functions of watershed.

This set of programs would also provide sustainable production of water for domestic, irrigation, power generation and other industrial uses at the same time affording the stakeholders determine and operationalize other beneficial options in the use of watersheds. The ultimate impact would be the ensurance of long term health of the watersheds.
