Some municipalities within the county are not included because the deadline for their plans had not passed at the time of this reports writing, or they were exempt from submitting a pollution reduction plan. Section B of this report contains a list of municipalities whose plans we were unable to attain. In Section C and D, each best management practice (BMP) that was found on the pollution reduction plans is listed. Section C is organized by the 13 watersheds that BMPs were spatially located within. The columns in this section provide the projects geolocation and address, the project description, the municipality who proposed the project, and specific information about the project. This information includes the project size, sediment reduction estimate, estimated cost, and the method that was used to calculate the reduction. Section D organizes the BMPs by project type. The information in Section D also includes the proposed method of funding for the specific project. Some projects in sections C and D do not include various factors in the project list, such as project size and estimated cost. These are not included in this report because they were not included within the municipal plan. These will be marked with “not provided” or “N/A”. The project type was identified using the categories found in the following table.
