Abstract
This four-chapter report describes the work I performed as a technical writing intern for the Warren County Engineer's Office (WCEO) in Lebanon, Ohio, during the summer of 2010. The report provides an overview of the county organization; a description of my role in the Engineer's Office, and the documents I created for Warren County, including an instructional pamphlet on stormwater drainage maintenance for Home Owner Associations (HOA) and a booklet on stream setbacks for the Warren County Soil and Water Conservation District (WCSWCD). (I also include an analysis and comparison of project management to my internship experience and how that affected the development of my documents and the exploration of the internship and how my experience compared to my classroom training as a technical writer.)
