NEMO (Nonpoint Education for Municipal Officials)

NEMO (Nonpoint Education for Municipal Officials) is a program that provides training and resources to local government officials, helping them understand and manage nonpoint source pollution—pollution from dispersed sources like runoff from streets, farms, and construction sites. By improving knowledge about best practices, land use, and stormwater management, NEMO aims to protect water quality, preserve ecosystems, and ensure compliance with environmental regulations. Essentially, it empowers officials to make informed decisions that minimize pollution and support sustainable community development.
