Stormwater and erosion of soils can complicate life for
everyone. If left unmanaged, they threaten water quality, health and safety of the public, and the economy. Pollutants carried by eroded soils
and water (sediment) can contaminate drinking and surface water resources, destroy fish habitat, make recreational surface waters undesirable, and in large amounts, can destroy homes and endanger lives.
At the request of local industry professionals, a
committee was formed to evaluate and eventually implement a Panhandle Stormwater and Erosion Education Program (Panhandle SEEP) in the five North Idaho counties. The Panhandle SEEP will be available to anyone in
the construction industry and related disciplines who desire to improve their skills, understanding and marketability in the stormwater and erosion control field. The program will be presented with a
voluntary testing and certification option.
