The Kitsap Peninsula Clean Runoff Collaborative is committed to achieving the following objectives by February 16, 2009: Objective 1 Identify target audiences and characterize associated behavior and demographic trends. Task 1.1 Contract consultant services to design and conduct a survey for the general public that: • Can be used to characterize current behaviors and associated demographic trends; • Will serve as a baseline against which behavior change can be measured; • Is in a format that can be repeated; • Produces data of statistical quality that is useful to all participating jurisdictions; and • Can determine the extent to which Kitsap Peninsula audiences can be generalized to those of the eastern Puget Sound metropolitan area, as well as within urban vs. rural areas of the Kitsap Peninsula. Task 1.2 Identify appropriate baseline behavior assessment tools and/or gather existing data on specific sectors within the general public (businesses, Permittee employees, etc.) for whom standard telephone survey techniques may not be effective. 6 Objective 2 Identify and prioritize practices to be addressed by behavior-change campaigns. Task 2.1 List behaviors that are most likely contributing to adverse stormwater impacts based on knowledge of local pollution problems. Consider behaviors relevant to each target audience. Task 2.2 Prioritize behaviors and associated target audiences to be addressed by social marketing campaigns using factors including but not limited to: • Baseline behavior survey results; • Scope of problem as identified by water quality data and inspection/ investigation results; • Presence/absence of existing local programs that address the behavior and effectiveness of those programs; • Literature search of relevant articles and reports for programs applicable to the target audience; and • Degree to which identified behaviors are single, simple, doable, and measurable. Objective 3 Commence the design of a social marketing campaign with built-in evaluation protocols for the highest priority behavior. Task 3.1 Conduct formative researches on the highest priority behavior, which may include: • Reviewing other program designs, management approaches, and evaluation strategies; • Adopting a campaign approach that has been thoroughly evaluated and proven successful in a similar community; and/or • Using focus groups or other survey tools to garner in-depth information on attitudes and practices relative to the behavior, identify barriers and benefits of the target audience adopting the behavior, and get ideas for potential campaign strategies. Task 3.2 Develop a campaign strategy based on barrier/benefit research that includes an evaluation plan with specific, measurable, and achievable outcomes. The Kitsap Peninsula Clean Runoff Collaborative is committed to achieving the following objectives by February 15, 2012: Objective 4 Implement social marketing campaign for the highest priority behavior. Task 4.1 Test the campaign strategy on a small segment of the population, using focus groups and/or pilot studies to refine and reevaluate the strategy. Task 4.2 Implement the campaign across the community, assessing effectiveness at proper intervals, documenting progress, and changing the campaign strategy as necessary to achieve defined outcomes. 7 Task 4.3 Continue the program at an appropriate level once measurements indicate increased adoption of the behavior in the target audience. Objective 5 Implement additional campaigns using a phased approach for each prioritized behavior and associated target audience. Objective 6 Use adaptive management to refine programs and direct education and outreach resources most effectively. Objective 7 Track and maintain records of education and outreach activities. Objective 8 Pursue grants and other funding opportunities as available and appropriate. Objective 9 Enhance public awareness of and access to information resources. Task 9.1 Brand the Collaborative with a name, slogan, and logo that the public can relate to. Task 9.2 Create an independent website that serves as a stormwater education clearinghouse for residents and businesses. Objective 10 Strengthen existing partnerships. Task 10.1 Coordinate messages and activities with other entities involved in stormwater education and outreach programs (Regional STORM Program; West Sound Watersheds Council; Puget Sound Partnership ECO Network; KEEP) Task 10.2 Seek opportunities to optimize partnerships with non-permitted entities including but not limited to the Kitsap County Health District, Kitsap Conservation District, Washington SeaGrant, WSU Extension, Chambers of Commerce, Local Source Control Specialists, professional associations, and non-profit environmental organizations B.
