FMR I Is your community a Blue Star community? <br />(- - c <br />• Friends of the <br />Mississippi River <br />Working to protect the Mississippi River and its watershed in the Twin Cities area <br />Page 1 of 3 <br />Is your community a Blue Star <br />community? <br />Minnesota has a brand new <br />award program for <br />communities that excel at <br />protecting our water quality <br />from urban runoff pollution: <br />The Blue Star Award for <br />Excellence in Community <br />Stormwater Management. <br />While many cities and <br />townships work to keep our <br />water clean by reducing urban <br />runoff, there are a few <br />communities in our state that <br />exceed state standards and go <br />the extra mile to protect our <br />waters. That's why FMR, in <br />partnership with Emmons & <br />Olivier Resources, Inc and <br />several local partner <br />organizations teamed up to <br />create the Blue Star Award. <br />The Blue Star Award is <br />Minnesota's only award for communities that exceed minimum standards and <br />make the extra effort to protect our water. The award is designed to offer <br />Recognizing Excellence in <br />Community Stormwater <br />Management <br />http://www.fmr.org/news/current/blue_star_award_program-2010-09 12/8/2010 <br />
