Puget Sound Stormwater Monitoring Workshop:

Designing a Monitoring Program for the Future

 

Tuesday, November 10, 2009

9:00 am – 3:00 pm

(Registration opens at 8:15)

 

 

As we all know, stormwater is an important contributor to the decline in habitat and water quality in the Puget Sound basin and among the biggest threats to the health and recovery of the Puget Sound ecosystem.  We need a better system to monitor stormwater across the region and share results in a way that helps us make better management decisions.  The Stormwater Work Group has been meeting since October 2008 to prioritize objectives for monitoring stormwater and to develop a regional stormwater monitoring strategy that provides needed information about stormwater impacts to beneficial uses and effectiveness of management actions in Puget Sound. 

 

This is the 2nd workshop.  A first workshop in May 2009 was designed to recieved early input for the strategy.  This November workshop is intended to solicite your feedback on the draft strategy and to recieve early input on implementation.  

 

 Interim products can be viewed on the Stormwater Work Group's web page at http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/psmonitoring/swworkgroup.html

 

 

The intended audience for the workshop is: stormwater managers, engineers, and scientists, planners, natural resource managers, industry professionals, non-profit environmental advocates, decision makers, and technical folks engaged in ecosystem and environmental monitoring.

Stormwater Work Group

The Stormwater Work Group was formally created in December 2008 by the Puget Sound Monitoring Consortium.  The first major task of the work group is to create a strategy that specifically addresses coordination of monitoring and assessment for stormwater in the Puget Sound basin.
