  • Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities
    Journalism, Truth and Healthy Communities Healthy people, healthy businesses, healthy governments — healthy communities — are all best informed and engaged by independent community journalists who examine school budgets, expose scandals, question practices and politics, scrutinize environmental practices, who champion good and who dare to challenge fear and falsehoods. The work we do in our newsrooms enhances community life, it exposes mental and social health care problems and brings solutions forward, it relentlessly exposes overspending in our governments, and highlights the great people who live and work all around us. Communities are healthier, more engaged, more resilient and better able to thrive when informed by truth.

The 2013 MEPDES MS4 Permit expired on June 30, 2018 but was administratively continued. Guidance from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (Maine DEP) indicated that compliance may be maintained by implementing modified Permit Year 6 activities for “Permit Year 7”. CCSWCD submitted an email to Maine DEP clarifying the anticipated modifications to MCMs 1 and 2 on 8/5/2019. In addition, because of the statewide COVID-19 Stay at Home Order and social distancing restrictions, the DEP issued guidance in March and April 2020, and CCSWCD submitted a clarifying email to Maine DEP on 4/9/2020 describing modifications to remaining MCM 1 and 2 BMP action items. This report includes a summary of all four education & outreach plans required under MCM 1 of the 2013 MEPDES MS4 Permit including the Stormwater Public Awareness Plan, the Targeted BMP Adoption Plan, the Municipal Permit Awareness Plan, and the Enhanced Outreach Plan. This report also includes a summary of the regional public event (Urban Runoff) in fulfillment of MCM 2 of the 2013 MEPDES MS4 Permit.

After all, their town touts its German heritage and attracts thousands of visitors with Spring and Fall festivals and the annual Kristkindl Market each December. And then there are the wineries, a half-dozen of them in and around Hermann, which also bring many thirsty patrons. The newcomers are a little different this September 19-25 as 40 photographers, a dozen fac- ulty, a score of student workers and photography industry representatives converge in Hermann for the 56th Missouri Photo Workshop. Hermann hosted the third MPW in 1951 and will again be the subject of attention as this band of photojournalists tries to capture the essence of this community in a series of storytelling still images. Once described as “a rollicking river port with a tavern on every corner and he largest gen- eral store between St. Louis and Kansas City,” Hermann has weathered Prohibition and the Great Depression and found a way for its nearly 3,000 citizens to survive.
