Jim J Posted September 27, 2006 Report Share Posted September 27, 2006 Hello, my name is Stacy James and I am the Clean Water Program Coordinator for Prairie Rivers Network, an Illinois organization devoted to the protection of streams statewide. I am writing you today about an opportunity to participate in our upcoming construction site storm water patrol training workshop. I am contacting you in particular because you have expressed interest in this training in the past, or you are a contact person for a watershed/environmental group that might have members interested in this training. We are offering the training because soil erosion from construction sites is a leading cause of the impairment of Illinois streams. We will be offering a training to all interested individuals on the morning of Saturday November 11 in the Village of Aurora. A flyer is attached with more information. I would appreciate it if you could forward this email to others in your organization who might be interested in this opportunity. Please note that an RSVP is requested. Thanks very much, Stacy Stacy James Clean Water Program Coordinator Prairie Rivers Network 809 S. 5th Street Champaign, IL 61820 phone: 217-344-2371 fax: 217-344-2381 sjames@prairierivers.org www.prairierivers.org STORM WATER PATROL TRAINING WORKSHOP Sponsored by Prairie Rivers Network & Sierra Club 9:30am - 12:30pm Saturday, November 11 Village of Aurora Topics Covered Include: • Storm Water Regulations • Construction Site Best Management Practices • How to Fill Out a Site Report Card • Filing a Citizen Complaint What We Ask of Participants: There is a $10 fee to cover the cost of monitoring materials participants will be given.
