The revitalizing and restoration of rivers, creeks and streams is a
major focus of urban conservation activity throughout North America
and Europe. This book presents models and examples for organizing
multiple stakeholders for purposes of waterway revitalization-if
not restoration-within a context of fairness and environmental
justice. After decades of neglect and misuse the challenge of
cleaning up urban rivers and streams is shown to be complex and
truly daunting. Urban river cleanup typically involves multiple
agendas and stakeholders, as well as complicated technical issues.
It is also often the situation that the most affected have the
least voice in what happens. The authors present social process
models for maximum inclusion of various stakeholders in
decision-making for urban waterway regeneration. A range of
examples is presented, drawn principally from North America and
Europe.
