PUBLIC
EDUCATION AND PARTICIPATION
The
Town of Kernersville is developing and implementing a public
education and outreach program designed to produce and to
distribute educational materials and to conduct outreach activities
for its private and corporate citizens. The public education
and outreach program will address impacts related to stormwater
discharges into our streams and also inform citizens about
actions they can take to reduce or eliminate the impacts.
During
the first five years of the Town's stormwater management program,
the target audiences for the public education portion of the
program will be (1) the general public, (2) students in grade
five, (3) the local construction industry, and (4) illicit
dischargers. A variety of educational and communication tools
will be employed in an effort to reach each of these four
diverse groupings.
It
is critical to the success of the stormwater management program
that citizens of the Town of Kernersville become aware of
how their life styles impact stormwater pollution and the
role(s) they must play to improve water quality in streams.
