Recycling is encouraged whenever it is socially, economically and environmentally acceptable to make smart use of waste water for the ongoing development of the State. To provide information on the multiple objective approaches of stormwater management, the Department of Water published the Stormwater Management Manual for Western Australia. About the manual Adoption of the practices contained in the manual will lead to better management of parklands, waterways, estuaries, wetlands and oceans and will help prevent fish kills and pollution events. Who is the manual for. Local government Industry Developers State agencies Service providers Community groups What the manual provides It provides principles, objectives and detailed design information. It supports and provides information to enable implementation of Western Australian Planning Commission planning policies and Environmental Protection Authority environmental policies. It has been developed to support decision making by urban planners, local governments, State agencies, catchment management bodies and drainage service providers. More assistance for integrating stormwater management approaches is being developed as part of the Department’s urban water capacity building project. More information on water sensitive urban design can be obtained from the New WAter Ways website. Includes case studies and examples that demonstrate how to undertake retrofitting projects. Describes non-structural controls, their benefits, use, effectiveness and evaluation. Provides advice on how to select and implement non-structural controls. Provides technical guidelines on the most relevant non-structural controls. Provides an overview of the benefits, use, effectiveness and evaluation of each type of structural control.

Residential Stormwater Billing The cost of treating stormwater runoff is included in the monthly water bill. Residential customers pay a standard amount based on the average surface area of impervious cover on residential properties and the average square footage throughout the city. Non-Residential Stormwater Billing For commercial customers, the cost to manage stormwater is based on the specific square footage of impervious area covering the property and the total square footage of the property. Stormwater Grants Stormwater grants provide financial assistant to non-residential property owners who desire to build green stormwater infrastructure to manage private property runoff. Flooding The Philadelphia Water Department recognizes and understands the significant challenges and heartaches long-time flooding problems cause to home and business owners. Addressing flooding issues is a continued priority for PWD. Stormwater Pioneers The Stormwater Pioneers program recognizes the best in stormwater management on private property. Review of stormwater management plans is authorized by section 14-704 of the Philadelphia Code. Submit a Project Stormwater Management Guidance Manual Technical Resources The current method is based on the fair cost of service to our system. Residential properties are charged a uniform monthly amount that is based on the average residential lot size and average residential impervious (or inability to absorb water) characteristics.
All non-residential customers are charged based on the actual size of their property and the amount of impervious area determined for their property.

Stormwater can soak into the soil, be held on the surface and evaporate, or runoff into lakes, streams and other local waterbodies. Stormwater runoff collects in lakes and streams by flowing over land, or by moving through a system of stormwater pipes. This means anything that stormwater picks up—like trash or pollutants—will go directly into our lakes and streams. Learn More Anything other than rainwater that enters a stormdrain or any other part of the stormwater system is considered an illicit discharge, which is prohibited by the County Code’s Illicit Discharge and Illegal Connection (IDIC) Ordinance.
DWR investigates potential illicit discharges into our surface waters. Visit the Protecting our Waterways page for more information about these pollutants. If you suspect a possible illicit discharge violation, please call 678.376.7000 immediately to report it. These audits are designed to assess compliance with the IDIC. For information on industry specific water quality guidelines, click here. Active and ongoing monitoring is an important component for DWR to be aware of the current conditions in county waterways and take steps to address and reduce any harmful impacts. To see real-time monitoring data, visit the USGS website. This plan includes information on Gwinnett County's maintenance of stormwater systems, illicit discharge detection and elimination, monitoring of impaired waterways, public education and involvement, industrial and highly visible pollutant souce inspections, and stormwater controls.To improve water quality and aquatic habitats, DWR created Watershed Improvement Plans (WIPs) for every watershed in the county. These detailed WIPs provide information about the condition of streams, ponds, and the stormwater infrastructure. Using innovative computer modeling, DWR charts both current and projected future sediment loads carried in these bodies of water and designs projects for mitigating problems. DWR also helps develop and enhance standards and policies for new developments to help prevent an increase in these problems. To learn more about how DWR maintains our existing infrastructure, click here. A part of flood control is the maintenance and operation of dams throughout the county. DWR ensures that Gwinnett dams comply with all state and federal programs to ensure public safety. Gwinnett County also has approximately 24,000 acres of floodplain. Although there are natural benefits to a floodplain, we are aware of the safety concerns caused by flooding. For more information about floods and floodplains, click here.
BMPs are designed to reduce the volume and velocity of stormwater runoff to prevent erosion. They can also capture sediment and pollutants before they enter local waterways. Some examples of BMPs include detention ponds, vegetated filter strips, swales, and retention basins. DWR regularly inspects all existing stormwater BMPs. To learn more about different BMPs and what you need to do to maintain your BMP, click here. These projects return degraded streams to more natural flow patterns and conditions. DWR’s engineers and scientists work with nature to protect and preserve these natural resources. Permits can ONLY be obtained by a LICENSED DRAINLAYER.

The intent of the Manual is to: The Development Engineering section coordinates updates to the Stormwater and Site Development Manual ( Title 17A ). Updates are required by the Washington State Department of Ecology, typically on a five-year cycle. The Manual was last updated in 2015. It made Low Impact Development Principles and Best Management Practices the preferred and commonly used approach for development. Pierce County must update the 2015 Manual by July 1, 2021. In addition to incorporating some minor staff and industry-requested changes, there are nine significant changes required for this update in the following areas: The draft updates are available to download below as Word documents in a track changes format. There are also two spreadsheets that summarize the changes.
Please review the drafts and submit comments, suggestions or questions by June 1. Includes AutoCad files. Library of Supporting documents and historic manuals Other resources: Stormwater Manual Update Dawn Anderson, Project Manager (253) 798-2291. Stor mwater runs off of land and hard surfaces such as streets, parking lots, and rooftops, and picks up pollutants, such as fertilizers, dirt, pesticides, and oil and grease. Eventually, stormwater soaks into the ground or discharges to surface water (usually through storm drains), bringing the pollutants with it. It is not cleaned at a wastewater treatment plant. This means all of the pollutants carried by stormwater are also channeled to these water bodies. If you pour something down a storm drain or in a gutter, it is just as though you poured it directly into your favorite swimming hole or fishing spot, or even into the source of your drinking water. DEQ's Catalog of Stormwater Best Management Practices for Cities and Counties includes site-design techniques for controlling stormwater runoff associated with land development activities. DEQ also provides plan and specification review for facilities that control, treat, or dispose of stormwater if requested by the developer or design engineer. The Idaho Transportation Department also periodically conducts erosion and sedimentation control workshops. Injection wells can be used for stormwater runoff disposal; stream channel alteration permits are required when construction activities impact a stream below the mean high water mark. This includes constructing a stormwater outfall along a river, stream, or lake. Stormwater ordinances are designed to minimize the environmental threat to Idaho's rivers, lakes, and streams by prohibiting certain activities that would directly discharge into stormwater sewer systems. For more information about local ordinances in your community, contact your local public works department, highway district, or county.
Compliance with a stormwater permit may require the use of stormwater best management practices (BMPs); their use is recommended although not required. TMDLs are calculated for surface water bodies that do not meet water quality standards; their purpose is to improve poor water quality. Since stormwater can discharge pollutants to streams, lakes, and rivers, stormwater discharges must be consistent with the requirements of a TMDL that has been developed for a particular water body. Following BMPs from the Catalog of Stormwater Best Management Practices for Idaho Cities and Counties described below is generally sufficient to meet TMDL requirements, but it is best to discuss BMPs with DEQ before implementing if a TMDL is in place. Stormwater BMPs are used in Idaho to help prevent stormwater runoff from polluting Idaho's streams and rivers. DEQ has developed a Catalog of Stormwater Best Management Practices for Idaho Cities and Counties to provide technical guidance for the selection and site design of stormwater BMPs. An example of a source control is maintaining existing vegetation in specific areas of a construction site to help control erosion. They tend to be more expensive than source control measures.Extra product (and your money!) goes down storm drains. Extra water goes down storm drains and takes pollutants with it. Commercial car washes recycle their wastewater and some also treat it before it is sent into the sewer system. If you do wash your car at home, use a bucket or a nozzle that you can turn off so the hose is not running constantly, and wash your car on the lawn so the extra water soaks into the ground. Use cleaners sparingly. Pet waste on the ground adds bacteria and nutrients to the stormwater and eventually to local water bodies. Do not pour them onto the ground or into gutters or storm drains. Contact your local city public works department or DEQ regional office for more information on marking programs.

Last year, over 13,000 people attended performances at the Auburn Avenue Theater.The focus of the Utility is to effectively manage stormwater within the City through: The storm system is designed to convey rainwater from the streets and properties of the City to nearby creeks and rivers. This requires the City to prepare and implement a stormwater management program to improve the quality of the water discharged from the City's storm drainage system into the Green and White Rivers, Mill Creek, and into the groundwater below the City. The Storm Drainage Utility coordinates the City's NPDES response as well as works on regional efforts to manage flooding and improve water quality. Please check the Stormwater Permit page for more information. These Low Impact Development (LID) regulations and standards emphasize on-site stormwater management that mimics predevelopment conditions rather than storage and conveyance-based stormwater management. The goal of LID is to prevent degradation of our streams, wetlands, and rivers from the runoff from developed sites. Starting in 2017, these new LID principles and best management practices (BMPs) will be incorporated into new projects that are not vested under the 2009 City of Auburn stormwater standards. The source of this pollution has been traced to how we as citizens live our daily lives. Rainwater picks up pollutants from the air, buildings, parking lots and from road surfaces. These pollutants include chemicals, oils, sand, dirt, pet waste and other debris. Disposing of oils, detergents, pet waste and other materials into the storm drain is the same as dumping them directly into a stream, wetland, lake or Puget Sound. Removing contaminants from stormwater is not nearly as effective as eliminating the pollutant at the source.

Urbanization leads to the compaction of soil; the addition of impervious surfaces such as roads and parking lots; alteration of natural landscape features such as natural depressional areas that hold water, floodplains and wetlands; construction of highly efficient drainage systems; and the addition of pollutants from everyday human activities.
These alterations within a watershed decrease the amount of rainwater that can seep into the soil to recharge our aquifers, maintain water levels in lakes and wetlands, and maintain spring and stream flows. Consequently, the volume, speed and pollutant loading in stormwater that runs off developed areas increases, leading to flooding, water quality problems and loss of habitat. Florida’s original stormwater rule was adopted in 1981 and went into effect in February 1982. The stormwater rule is a technology-based rule that relies upon four key components: This level of treatment was selected for two reasons: The minimum level of treatment for domestic wastewater point sources was “secondary treatment” which equated to an 80 percent reduction in TSS. This rule sets forth the broad guidelines for the implementation of Florida’s stormwater program and describes the roles of DEP, the water management districts and local governments. The rule provides that one of the primary goals of the program is to maintain, to the degree possible, during and after construction and development, the predevelopment stormwater characteristics of a site. The rule also provides a specific minimum performance standard for stormwater treatment systems: to remove 80 percent of the post-development average annual stormwater pollutant loading of pollutants “that cause or contribute to violations of water quality standards.” This performance standard is significantly different than the original one used in Florida’s stormwater treatment rules. The vision of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection is to create strong community partnerships, safeguard Florida’s natural resources and enhance its ecosystems. Creole French German Italian Portuguese Spanish. This puts stress on the City’s infrastructure and impacts water quality. An inter-departmental City technical advisory committee worked with local stakeholders to accomplish these goals.
The ordinance ( see fact sheet ) requires regulated projects to install controls to manage the amount of stormwater which enters the city’s infrastructure and the rate at which this stormwater enters the system. Project applicants will be required to submit a Post-Construction Stormwater Management Plan which specifies how these controls will accomplish the required level of management. Implementation of this plan will be required during the project and proper operation and maintenance of the controls will be required after the project is complete. All material is the property of the City of Detroit and may only be used with permission. Water harvesting reduces the amount of stormwater flowing in streets or onto adjacent properties, increases the quantity and quality of the water supply for landscape plants, and helps keep potential stormwater pollutants out of our streets, watercourses and ultimately, the groundwater. Water harvesting appropriately designed and monitored, can reduce the amount of potable water used for irrigation, saving a development money and reducing the demand on the City's potable water delivery system. An average water use breakdown for properties in Tucson indicates approximately 60% internal use and 40% is external use. Presently, the only water use reduction program or method enforced by the City that targets landscaping water use is the Xeriscape requirements in the Land Use Code. The Land Use Code provides additional means to reduce external water use by requiring stormwater harvesting to supplement irrigation systems for commercial developments. While not practical as a regulatory approach for managing stormwater on a City-wide basis, water harvesting should be encouraged for use by individuals on private property. If enough people practice water harvesting in City neighborhoods, it is possible that some urban flooding problems could be reduced.
