FLOOD SUMMIT

presented by the Pocono Northeast Resource Conservation
& Development Council

   

  LIVING WITH STORMWATER & FLOODS
 
November 2006, June 2006, April 2005, September 2004 . . .  If you are an elected official, or have any association with emergency response, then these dates have true meaning to you.  They represent a painful reminder of long days and nights, great loss of property, concern over water quality issues, and significant public outcry; all a consequence of the swelling waters from our local streams and rivers.

Flooding events from improperly managed stormwater runoff cause us to reflect on past decisions, providing us the unfortunate opportunity to see that stormwater management and flood plain management are critical to the prevention of problems and casualties caused by flooding events.

Pocono Northeast, along with our partners, have presented  Stormwater/Flood Summits covering the Counties of  Carbon, Columbia, Monroe, Montour, Northumberland, Pike and Wayne.
