to insure the health, safety and welfare of our citizens. Improper land use and water use

uses, flood prevention and control, soil erosion prevention and control, agricultural and
timber land protection, and wildlife habitat protection. The legislative intent of this chapter
is to provide for the establishment of watershed management authorities, and to authorize
said entities to protect and manage the watersheds of this state. (Acts 1991, No. 91-602,

Section 22-35-1 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature of the State of Alabama finds
and declares that certain lands of Alabama constitute unique and delicately balanced resources;
that the protection of these resources is vital to the economy of this state; and that the
preservation of waters is a matter of the highest urgency and priority as these waters provide
a primary source of potable water in this state; that such use can only be served effectively
by maintaining the quality of waters in as close to a comparable previous condition as possible,
taking into account multiple use accommodations necessary to provide the broadest possible
promotion of public and private interests. The Legislature further finds that where contamination
of soils or waters has occurred, remedial measures have often been delayed for long periods
while determinations as to liability and the extent of liability are made; that such delays
result in the continuation and intensification of the...
