Roads Training Program and Resources
County Road Departments at training workshopThe 5C Program is actively involved in educating member counties in road maintenance & construction techniques that acheive transportation objectives while preserving water quality.

Ongoing workshops presented to road departments highlight the effectiveness of road treatments that enhance water quality and fish habitat. These educational presentations have fostered unity of procedure in the five counties area, insuring that road operations are planned based on watersheds, not county lines.

In addition, these publications & media were developed as educational tools for use by county road departments:
