Stormwater Management
Stormwater is rainwater or melting snow that doesn’t soak into the ground and instead flows over land, picking up pollutants and eventually reaching waterways. It’s a natural process, but development increases stormwater runoff and pollution. Understanding stormwater helps us manage it to protect our environment and water resources.
