  2. Foster citizen involvement in stormwater management through the Lexington Countywide Stormwater Consortium education and participation programs.
  3. Encourage behavioral change towards environmental quality improvement through stormwater education.
  4. Facilitate collaboration among local governments, citizens, businesses and organizations on ways to improve stormwater quality.
  5. Help local MS4s meet NPDES Phase II permit requirements for public stormwater education and outreach by making local educational resources and service providers readily available.
