Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program

When stormwater flows through parking lots, chemical storage areas, areas of outside industrial activity, waste management areas, material loading / unloading operations and similar areas, it can pick up debris such as: chemicals, fertilizers, fecal bacteria, pollutants and other hazardous materials. This now-contaminated stormwater can then flow untreated directly into nearby bodies of water used for swimming, drinking, recreation and farming. This program outlines your responsibility to prevent pollution and steps you can take to help reach this goal.
