Washington State University (WSU) Extension and the Washington Stormwater Center (WSC) have partnered to develop this site to empower agency, municipal, and tribal staff; conservation districts, contractors, and landowners to effectively manage and reduce polluted runoff in rural areas. Funding was provided by the Environmental Protection Agency through the Puget Sound National Estuary program and the Stormwater Strategic Initiative.
