are to also share in some good BMP projects that we have in our area and to trade or Exchange information on the good BMP's that work
at our sites. The coordination efforts with West Virginia University also by exchanging information,ideas,project successes,solutions,
problems and what BMP's work on various sites. the coordination effort we have with the West Virginia water Quality Association
(MWQA) and MS4 Sub Committee is that we offer to anyone who needs help with information on general permit issues, design manual
