Focus Group Participants Sought to Discuss Local Flooding Issues

Do you live in or very near a flood plain in the Easton area? Do you rely on flood warnings and alerts to know when to prepare?

Two focus groups to discuss flooding issues will be held at the Nurture Nature Center in Downtown Easton next Monday, June 10 at 2 and 6 p.m., in collaboration with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration about the use of the National Weather Service's flood forecast and warning tools.

Participants, who will be asked to answer questions and provide input, must meet the above criteria, and also be 18 or older. Fifteen people are needed for each two hour session, and those that participate will each receive $30 for their time.

Coffee and light refreshments will be provided during the sessions.

The Nurture Nature Center is located at 518 Northampton St.
