Nancy Schumm, Environmental Services Division Chief will cover details of our permit, some of the goals of the Maryland MS4 Phase II permits, regulations that we keep up to date, compliance challenges and best practices or lessons learned. Some of our greatest challenges have included staff changes, and good housekeeping, as well as outreach and education and staff education. Staying on mission, to do the best we can, wherever and whenever we can has led to amazing outcomes and community support to strive to keep our water clean and protect the greater regions watersheds.
