Organization of the Report
The Public Perception Survey of Long Island Sound watershed residents is divided into several key sections. It begins with an executive summary of the study’s major findings. This is followed by the body of the report, which includes a more extensive discussion of the survey including key graphics and is divided into the following topics: (1) recreational use of the Long Island Sound, (2) perceived water quality, (3) the enactment of behaviors that have some impact on water quality, (4) knowledge about the environment in general and the Long Island Sound specifically, (5) attitudes towards environment in general and willingness to change behaviors that affect the Long Island Sound, and (6) residents’ exposure to different local media sources. This is followed by a methodology report. The questionnaire and regional results are located in the Appendix 1 of the report. Appendix 2 contains the original RFP area description. Appendix 3 contains a map of the Long Island Sound watershed and a table of the zip codes included in the study sample.
The report was conducted in spring 2006, and was prepared by the Stony Brook University Center for Survey Research, Department of Political Science, for the Long Island Sound Study.
