Wildlife Habitats in Managed Rangelands: The Great Basin of Southeastern Oregon : Native TroutPacific Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, 1979 - Range management - 16 pages "Southeastern Oregon has a variety of fish habitats which include major rivers, tributary streams, large and small reservoirs, lakes, and springs. These habitats are directly related to and highly dependent on the conditions of the surrounding rangeland watersheds. Satterlund (1975, p. 22) put it this way: "Rangelands may yield little water, but they are second only to cultivated lands as a source of water quality problems." It may be fairly stated, therefore, that man's agricultural activities in rangelands of southeastern Oregon have altered aquatic habitats more than any other land use." |
