Calendar
Annual Meeting
The Department’s Stormwater Program will be offering several training events on the new Manual in May to support designers in their understanding of the new requirements and preparation of stormwater permit applications under the 2017 VSMM. The program has partnered with a number of organizations around the state in offering these training opportunities. Although the events will be free, the training events will have as assigned capacity based on the capacity of the venue, so it will be required that you RSVP to secure your spot. Again, this training will focus on design and application preparation and geared towards the stormwater design and engineering community, however all stakeholders are welcome to attend. The Stormwater Program also expects to schedule additional opportunities for training and outreach as needed, beyond this first initial offering which focuses on permit application design and preparation.
Each of the training events will include an overview of the new Manual with Stormwater Program staff, including applying the updated stormwater treatment standards under the new runoff-reduction approach and prioritized Water Quality Practice Selection framework. The training will include a review of the stormwater treatment practice design requirements, including a review of changes to certain practices. The training will also include a review of new application materials, supporting guidance, and application preparation tools, including design examples.
Presented in partnership with the Two Rivers-Ottauquechee Regional Commission (www.torc.org) and
the Southern Windsor County Regional Planning Commission (www.swcrpc.org)
