The 2008 Northeast Ohio Stormwater Conference took place on May 21-22 at Cuyahoga Community College's Eastern Campus in Highland Hills, Ohio. The conference highlighted stormwater management practices, case studies, and technologies, all directed towards assisting with stormwater management issues. Approximately 390 people registered for the conference, and 55 exhibitors were in attendance. Thank you to everyone who worked to make the conference a success, and we look forward to next year's event.
