By Rakhee Vemulapalli on Monday, August 9, 2004.

A new conservation plan for the Ashuelot River watershed is in the works.

The Nature Conservancy has joined with some local partners to develope the first comprehensive study identifying the area's natural resources.

In order to tackle such a large area, the Conservancy is employing Geographic Information Systems, or GIS mapping.

The mapping will allow the groups to be more effective in their land conservation efforts.
