How to Use the Project List

The Wet Weather Improvement Plan includes a county map, a few notes, and a listing of information on a large number of projects, located throughout the MSD service area. If you would like to search the list for projects or topics of interest to you, it may be easiest to use the Adobe Reader's built-in search feature. If you have not searched inside a PDF before, you may wish to open the list in a new browser window or print this page for easy reference. These instructions were created with Adobe Reader 6; however, the techniques are very similar for several recent versions of Acrobat Reader and Adobe Reader.

1. Open the Wet Weather Project List Document

First, you will want to open the file by clicking on the link 'Wet Weather Project List' located under 'Downloads' on the left side of this page. (If you would like to open this file in a new browser window, right-click on the link and select 'Open in New Window' from the menu.) You should see something like the image below in your browser:

2. Start the Search tool

On the Adobe toolbar, located just below your browser's address box, click the Search button. The button's icon may look somewhat different than the one shown, dependent upon the version of Adobe Reader you have installed. Newer versions have an icon much like this:

Notice to Readers

The Wet Weather Project List document contains data from the Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati’s Draft Wet Weather Improvement Plan (WWIP). The WWIP is a staff-level draft that is being made available for public review and comment. It has not been endorsed or approved by either the City of Cincinnati or Hamilton County. Under a Federal Consent Decree, the final WWIP must be submitted to state, regional, and federal environmental regulatory agencies by June 30, 2006. Until it is submitted, the Draft WWIP will be subject to additional review and revision. Public comments are a critical part of the process of developing the WWIP that is best for the community as a whole.

You may comment on the Plan by using the Wet Weather Comments Form. That page also explains how to comment by phone, email or postal mail.
