Our receiving stream is Coal Run. Per the 2014 integrated water quality monitoring & assessment report, it is impaired for fecal
colliform and pH.
FSU has an animal waste program on main campus. While animals are not permitted on inner campus or athletic fields, we do host
Pierpont’s veterinary technology program in Hunt Haught Hall. We have maintained two (2) denoted hot spots, both equipped with a
pet waste station and bags. Campus housing has a strict no animal policy that students agree to as part of their lease. We continue to
distribute our pet waste brochure to the Veterinary Tech students and at special events including pet washes and classroom
presentations.
This year’s dry weather inspections have not indicated any issues. FSU continues to work with various student groups, community
groups, and the City of Fairmont. FSU has been testing pH at our representative outfall since 2014 when became an MS4.

Fairmont State has continued to develop its partnership with the City of Fairmont, City of Clarksburg,
MUB, WVU, and Make Marion Co. Shine. We have successfully launched our second educational booth
shared with the City of Fairmont and are looking at other joint educational opportunities. FSU began a
stream rehabilitation study of Coal Run with several students and Professor Mark Flood's expertise. This
will become an education partnership with the City of Fairmont and continue for upcoming semesters.
FSU continues annual cleanup events with Make Marion Co. Shine and Local organizations such as
Churches. FSU also continues and is expanding the Stream cleanup event with the City of Fairmont.

Our website provides information on MS4, FSU's SWMP and other important information. The website has a built in counter
and allows people to submit feedback. This year we had forty-three (43) hits and received one (1) feedback. We believe this
decline is due to the reworking of FSU's main website and are working to address visibility and function for departments such
as Environmental. FSU continues to use mass email communications, posters, display boards, weekly online updates. All
freshman in Fall 2017 received a stormwater educational brochure as part of their orientation packet. We also regularly stock
these brochures in three (3) buildings and track the number taken weekly. We hope to expand this to new employee
orientation packets through HR department. We continue to check our advertising posters (one per building) and replace as
needed. We shared an educational booth with the City of Fairmont at Fall Fest this year reaching many elementary and
middle school children. Our booth was complete with a rain garden demonstration. Students worked closely to analyze and
benchmark Coal Run's existing features, their findings were presented to the City of Fairmont and key FSU management.
Physical Plant staff and custodial received annual training and partook in a quiz to assess their retention of information on
SWMP, IDDE policy, E&SC policy, PPP and our spill cleanup procedures.

Performance Measure 1b: Evaluation of effectiveness of public education and outreach efforts
31. Did you evaluate the effectiveness of the public education and outreach program?
Yes
Partially
No
32. How did you evaluate the effectiveness of the public education and outreach program in this reporting period?
(WV MS4 2009 General Permit, p. 24, #2)
33. Regardless of your answer to the previous question, have you identified new or better ways to
evaluate the public’s understanding of your program and water quality issues?
Yes
No
34. If yes, please describe any changes you would like to consider to improve your evaluation of effectiveness of
outreach.
Our website visits were tracked with the assistance of IT. In 2017 our hits decreased by forty-seven (47) due to changes made to all
of FSU's websites that effected visibility and maneuverability. The MS4 website is scheduled to be revamped in upcoming
re-branding phases. In 2017 we had forty-three (43) hits and one (1) submitted feedback. Ten (10) stormwater brochures were taken
since January 2017 showing there are interested students that are aware of stormwater pollution. This is 8 less than last year. These
reductions can also be contributed to FSU's significant enrollment decline last year. Seven hundred and Sixty-three (763) brochures
were provided to new freshman during orientation. Another sixty-nine (69) stormwater/pet waste brochures were handed out during
special presentations or events. Some include: Fall Fest, Solar Army club meetings, Student Government, Rotary Presentations,
Cleanup events and Welcome Back Ceremonies. Other children educational material was created including a pollution maze, and a
stormwater coloring sheet (100 handed out at fall fest). There have been multiple media coverage and newspaper articles
documenting the Coal Run Stream Rehab progress. This is an educational partnership with the City of Fairmont that is providing our
students hands-on real life experience. This project was also featured in a Falcon Spotlight video. The community feedback has been
wonderful. This project was also entered into the WVU IWSS Spring Conference. One stormwater poster is in each building in a
conspicuous place. Five (5) posters needed replaced this year. During all physical plant and custodial trainings, staff read through
documents, watched brief videos, had hands on training where applicable and finished by taking a short quiz to ensure they
comprehended the material.
Asking the public questions and them partaking in surveys has still generated the best results.

The annual campus clean-up initiatives have been very productive. We again partnered with a local
church this year to clean up Locust Ave from campus to downtown. We also partnered with the City
and had students help with the stream cleanup of Hickman Run. FSU student government took
interest in litter on campus and requested additional recycle/waste cans in areas. Some old
receptacles were updated and new receptacles placed in some parking areas.
Weekly updates are provided to the President and Presidents cabinet. Online updates are also
available. We have branched out into social media and using FSU's online student portal for
advertising. We also have worked with departments to get MS4 reminders displayed on their
informational TVs for students. Stephanie reaches out to all faculty/staff once a semester to try and
schedule/plan upcoming student projects or events. FSU also has an online form that can be used to
provide input and it submits directly to the physical plant.
Any and all student/faculty/staff/community participation has been recorded. More individuals are
reaching out to Stephanie wanting to participate. For instance advertisement of the Coal Run Stream
Rehab initiative, lead to several students and Professor Mark Flood reaching out and are now
soaring with this project. FSU's SWMP and annual reports are provided online for anyone to access
and comment.
Continued supply of information to all parties through multiple media types. Continue to work with IT and marketing and graphics
department to help spread awareness and change the culture on campus. All of FSU's websites/online content is being updated
and/or rebranded. The MS4 page is upcoming this year, we are brainstorming and researching other Higher ED MS4 pages.
Centralized waste stations will be adopted 1/16/18. Not only was this a significant budget reduction for FSU but it also promotes
proper waste disposal and highlights our recycling program on campus, hopefully removing more recyclables from our waste
stream.

The MS4 map was updated by Thrasher engineering. We also continued our plan to dye test/smoke
test storm drains in house to confirm or deny their routing. Two of Five sections have been
completed. Our CAD utility drawing was updated to reflect our observations.
FSU has intentions of cameraing lines to check pipe conditions and add more mapping data such as
depth. A few lines have been cameraed as needed. Still in open discussion with the City to see if we
can work out a deal to use their camera truck.

FSU has educated our community of our efforts and what to do when a spill is spotted and how to
report.
IDDE training was provided for all Physical Plant staff and custodian workers. Including what to look
for, proper cleanup and PPE, and how to report. These steps are part of our spill response plan. We
also have trained our staff on our PPP and good housekeeping efforts, this helps to eliminate
potential discharge concerns. We maintain our outfalls and roadways. Campus roadways were
swept seven (7) times in 2017.
A short quiz was created and administered after review of the policy. This training was supported by
the decrease in discharges. FSU continues to be proactive as opposed to reactive.

We required the site contractor to also perform site inspections and maintain logs. All construction
was completed early Spring 2017. Grass stabilized, and a Notice of Termination was submitted on
8/18/17, we've received no response. However, we've continued testing at the construction
representative out fall and have consistently been within parameters. We will not continue to test this
outfall into 2018 unless otherwise instructed.
