Abstract:

The ultimate success of a stormwater program often depends upon the support of concerned citizens. Interaction between stormwater managers and the public is especially important in small communities. Coordination allows the public and community leaders to develop and manage their program most effectively. The purpose of this paper is to provide some insight into one of the most critical components of a comprehensive stormwater management program: public involvement.
