THE CONCLUSION

The 2008 Nonpoint Source Conference has ended. The conference was a great success with approximately 257 people attending this event.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The Fourth Biennial NPS Conference was held in the Spring of 2008 to showcase successful watershed based approaches to address NPS pollution. The theme for the conference was, "Integrated Watershed Management: Reducing NPS pollution." This conference was aimed at showcasing how sustainability and an integrated holistic watershed perspective could be incorporated into non-point source problem-solving steps, through local, regional, and global efforts. Examples of such planning, techniques, and implementation were taken from state and federally funded Clean Water Act-Section 319, Proposition 13, 40, and 50 Projects."
