I was reading the ILNLRS today and I saw in the appendix (page A-4) that they have prioritized the 33 HUC-8 watersheds in Illinois- I think we could easily show these on the Illinois site layers with a link to the full chart. Below, I’ve listed the top 10 HUC-8 priority watersheds for non-point source nitrogen & phosphorus loss. There are also lists for point source N & P which we could add as well- I’m just not sure how interested we are in point sources? Perhaps we can discuss Thursday.

Shannon, can you make a task for this?
