The Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation (VT-DEC) has secured federal and state funding to provide technical assistance and funding to help Vermont public schools in the Lake Champlain and Lake Memphremagog watersheds with three or more acres of impervious surface comply with the new Three-Acre General Permit.  To accomplish this, Greenprint Partners will oversee a large block grant program that will complete stormwater design and permitting work on behalf of schools. Additionally, Lake Champlain Sea Grant will provide stormwater education and outreach to school communities including watershed and stormwater curricula as well as training for students,  teachers, and local watershed organizations.   

Greenprint is seeking organizations to partner with to deliver technical assistance to three-acre schools to complete stormwater design and permitting. Through an RFQ process, we will be developing a pool of pre-qualified organizations. Proposals will then be requested from pre-qualified organizations to provide assistance to individual schools that have enrolled with Greenprint. To learn how to become a pre-qualified vendor for the Vermont Green Schools Initiative, please join us on Wednesday, August 4, 2021 from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm EST.   Register online today. 

Who should attend? 

Watershed based organizations, engineering and consulting firms, and others interested in learning more about becoming a pre-qualified vendor. Please forward this invitation to the appropriate staff at your organization.
