What is Stormwater?
Stormwater is water from rain or melting snow that does not soak into the ground. Instead, it flows from rooftops, across paved areas, and through sloped lawns. As stormwater moves across these surfaces, it can pick up and carry along pollutants such as:
Chemicals
Grease and Oil
Bacteria and Pathogens
Sediment and Debris
Yard Waste
Pet Waste
Fertilizers
