Abstract/Summary:
This manual is designed to help those professional managers who are accepting the challenge of rehabilitating the physical and biological condition of Australian streams. The concepts provide a firm basis for planning a rehabilitation strategy, while the typical problems and tools provide resources that could be useful to the manager. It is important to emphasise that this is not a catchment or stream management manual. There are many reasons to intervene in streams and catchments that are not related to rehabilitation of the natural stream values. Thus, the manual will only touch on issues such as erosion control, water supply, flooding, and the sociology of management, in so far as they affect rehabilitation.
