  3. SMART About WaterStrategicManagementandAvailableResources& Technologies • Source Water Protection Planning training and technical assistance program awarded by EPA OGWDW • WVU National Environmental Services Center— training development and delivery, remote technical assistance, and results transfer • Rural Community Assistance Partnership— face-to-face training delivery and technical assistance in all 50 states • Serve CWS and non-CWS in communities with fewer than 3,300 residents • Strategically focus on source water threats posed by untreated wastewater—largest source water threat for small systems • Social marketing sensibility to promote voluntary action • National Design Committee—members from Source Water Collaborative, Wastewater MOU partners, federal, state, and local stakeholders

  4. Data Supporting Strategic Focus Source: http://www.epa.gov/safewater/data/pdfs/statistics_data_factoids_2005.pdf

  5. Workshop Background Influences • Wisdom of Crowds, by James Surowiecki • A group of moderately informed, moderately intelligent individuals will arrive at a better solution collectively than most extremely well-informed individual experts will offer • Group diversity and individual independence of thought are critical • The Tipping Point, by Malcolm Gladwell • Little things can make a big difference • Rules of Epidemics: Law of the Few, Stickiness Factor, Power of Context (7 categories; 150~ RCAP size)

  6. Workshop Background Influences And Rich Holder of NCRCAP —the Steinbeck Award Winner nominated by Andy Adams Orange County, NC Health Dept. • 2,500 non-existent or failing wastewater systems in 26 western North Carolina counties • In 2006, Rich marshaled financial and volunteer resources to fix a system for a family which had raw sewage flowing underneath their new home • Now he has more than a dozen vendors and volunteer groups (esp. ReCreation Experiences) lined up to repair seven more systems this summer, helping families and the environment Our challenge is to “clone” Rich Holder through training and technical assistance programs

  7. Workshop Goal 1 Program Goal = Catalyze SWPP by adopting simple social marketing techniques Focus on high-target audiences (Law of the Few, seven or eight groups) and on high-target threat (wastewater) • Each audience’s roles, responsibilities, and authority • WHAT each audience needs to know or do about SWPP and wastewater treatment/management • WHY each audience wants to know or do something that would promote SWPP • A delivery format that matches needs and wants • Criteria for training

  8. Workshop Goal 2 Use training criteria to evaluate existing training curricula, aids, products focusing on high-value targets

  9. Workshop Method • “Calibrate” ourselves through presentations • Learn basics of social marketing approach • Break out into smaller work groups to think deeply about audiences, needs, wants, delivery techniques • Professional facilitation/moderator services by experts with social marketing and curriculum design background— The Baldwin Group (TBG) Scott Stafford, Christine Brittle, Dargeelyn Loftin, Baldwin Tom

  10. National Design Committee Roles • Attend workshop and share expertise, experience, insights • Be a sounding board for program personnel throughout the 18-month effort (15 months left) • Be a network of “go to” people for each other and for NESC and RCAP technical assistance providers
