Story #5 in the ISMP Course Correction Series: Apply Inexpensive Screening Tools and 'Do More with Less'

Shared Responsibility is a Foundation Piece for Integrated Rainwater Management Planning
This article is the fifth and last instalment in a series that is designed to inform local governments and others about the paradigm-shift to landscape-based ‘RAINwater’ from pipe-and-convey ‘STORMwater’, and what this means for Integrated Stormwater Management Plans (ISMPs).
This instalment is built around City of Surrey case study experience.  Now in its fifth decade of continuous implementation experience, the City continues to evolve and adapt a watershed-based approach that incorporates lessons learned in getting green infrastructure right.
The notion of ‘shared responsibility’ is a foundation piece for collaboration, alignment and integration. When these are in place, innovation will follow.
