Managing Municipal Stormwater Runoff In The Chesapeake Bay Workshop September 14
|
|
Penn State Cooperative Extension will host a Management Municipal Stormwater Workshop on September 14 in State College.
Stormwater runoff is impacting our streams and watersheds, causing declines in water quality, streambank erosion, flash floods, degrading fish habitat, and reducing groundwater recharge. Studies have shown that significant impairment of waterways often occurs when 10 percent of the land in a watershed is covered with impervious surfaces such as parking lots and roof-tops.
This program is designed to help municipalities and municipal engineers implement new, cost-effective stormwater practices (BMPs). MS4 municipalities will learn more about the new applications and permitting that will be required to meet TMDLs for the Chesapeake Bay.
