Allegheny River Headwaters Conservation Plan WATERSHED DEFINITION A watershed is an area of land that drains to a common waterway, such as a stream, lake, wetland, aquifer, or ocean. Each waterbody has its own watershed; some are small, such as Brokenstraw Creek, and others are larger, such as Allegheny River. The highest elevation surrounding a waterbody defines its watershed boundary. A drop of water falling outside the boundary will drain to another watershed. Land uses and human influences can impact the quality of the watershed. Everyone lives in a watershed and “we all live downstream.” Local impacts on the waterbody affect the quality of the watershed downstream, just as impacts upstream affect the local quality of the watershed. xiii
