Join us at MuniCon 2025 as we celebrate a significant milestone—the 10th anniversary of the Stormwater Action Monitoring (SAM) program! This decade of progress represents the power of regional collaboration and science-based decision-making in improving stormwater management across Washington State. Over the past 10 years, SAM has funded dozens of critical studies that have shaped how we understand and manage stormwater, ensuring healthier waters for communities statewide.
A Special Presentation: Decade of Progress – Celebrating SAM and Stormwater Insights
Date: Wednesday, May 21st, 1:25 PM
Location: Pine/Spruce Room
Start your afternoon at MuniCon by joining us for a special session where SAM program staff will highlight key accomplishments and share valuable lessons learned over the past decade. This presentation will also offer a glimpse into what’s next for SAM, as the program continues to advance stormwater management efforts across the region. It’s a fantastic opportunity to reflect on the impact of SAM, recognize the collaborative efforts that have made it possible, and get inspired for the future of stormwater science.
SAM Poster Display – A Celebration of Science and Collaboration
Date: Wednesday, May 21st, 2:05 PM
Location: Heritage Ballroom
Following the presentation, head to the Heritage Ballroom for the SAM Poster Display during the Networking Session. Each poster showcases findings from completed SAM studies, demonstrating how the program’s collaborative efforts have influenced stormwater permits, program design, and infrastructure decisions. You’ll have the chance to explore the science funded by state agencies, local governments, research institutions, and private consultants, all contributing to a shared vision of healthier waters.
This display provides a unique opportunity to connect with the research that is shaping stormwater management practices and regulations. Whether you’re interested in the latest findings or want to learn more about the science that underpins stormwater policy, the SAM Poster Display is an essential stop.
Celebrate the Impact and Look Ahead
Come celebrate 10 years of SAM’s achievements and the science-driven solutions that have contributed to cleaner, healthier water for Washington. This is a chance to see the collective impact of regional partnerships and get a firsthand look at how the science you’ve helped fund is shaping the future of stormwater management.
Join us at MuniCon 2025 to commemorate a decade of progress, connect with colleagues, and get inspired for what’s next in stormwater action and science.
