    To All Phase II entities: 

     

    The California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA) is implementing a Proposition 84 Stormwater Grant Program project to develop a Web Portal to assist the stormwater community in obtaining and utilizing information relating to the assessment of stormwater program effectiveness. 

    The Web Portal will provide a central repository for obtaining guidance, sharing data and information, and obtaining planning and assessment support.

     

    To ensure that the Web Portal is a valuable resource, we would like to understand what would be most useful for its primary users. Your input will help to refine the Web Portal content and develop training to meet user expectations and needs.

     

    Please take a few moments to participate in the online survey that has been developed.

     

    You can access the survey here:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/BQMDLLN

    Note: the first page will indicate that you are 14% of the way through the survey, that is a by product of the survey, once you click next it will advance to the next screen.

     

    Your responses will be kept confidential. 

     

    Contact Karen Ashby at karena@lwa.com or (530) 753-6400 x232 if you have any questions.

     

    Thank you in advance for your participation.

    My presentation will be on the Bay Area Stormwater Management Agencies Association’s Post-Construction Manual for Provision E.12 compliance. It will cover many aspects of the implementation of bioretention as mandated by the Permit.

     

    The Post-Construction Manual is available from BASMAA and may be downloaded at http://www.basmaa.org/BoardandCommittees/PhaseII.aspx (scroll down to “Projects and Programs”).
