BMP #3: Regularly solicit public involvement and participation from the target audience groups using available distribution and outreach methods.

At least one public meeting or other MS4 event must be held during the 5-year permit coverage period to solicit participation and feedback from target audience groups. Was this meeting or event held during the reporting period?

No If Yes, Date of Meeting or Event: First Tuesday of each month; last meeting of reporting period: 5/4/21

☒ Yes ☐ No

Report instances of cooperation and participation in MS4 activities; presentations the permittee made to local watershed and conservation organizations; and similar instances of participation or coordination with organizations in the community.

Monthly meetings continued with the Pennsylvania Lake Erie Watershed Association (PLEWA) to share and discuss on-the-ground conditions of watersheds throughout the County, action items, and other relevant information such as grant opportunities, planning for community events, and so on. PLEWA has been coordinating with the Alliance for Aquatic Resource Monitoring at Dickinson College to prepare it for regular physical, chemical, and biological monitoring. A public presentation was held in collaboration with Penn State Extension at Lake Erie Arboretum at Frontier Park about the Cascade Creek restoration project. Due to COVID-19, the actionable scope of such MS4 activities were considerably limited in the latter half of this reporting period.

Report activities in which members of the public assisted or participated in the meetings and in the implementation of the SWMP, including education activities or efforts such as cleanups, monitoring, storm drain stenciling, or others.

PLEWA, whose members consist of those from the general public, has engaged in stream monitoring since its inception in 2000, and as previously described has been preparing for expanding monitoring and engagement activities in the coming year. This includes the various waterways and waterbodies within the Township, storm sewershed included. Again, due to COVID-19, the actionable scope of such activities were considerably limited during this reporting period.
