City Council Storm Water Presentation March 6, 2014

Presentation Outline Background and Philosophy Functions Financial Structure Future

Background and Philosophy Stormwater Management History 1972 – Clean Water Act National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) TCEQ to regulate stormwater discharge in Texas through the TPDES 1987 – Water Quality Act Permits for stormwater discharge for municipalities and industrial sites 1990’s – Phase I cities (100,000+ pop.) 1999 – Phase II cities (under 100,000 pop.)

Background and Philosophy Stormwater Management History 2007 – TCEQ adopts Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) General Permit for Phase II cities 5-year permit to discharge stormwater Cities must create Stormwater Management Program Full implementation of SWMP by the end of the term 2008 – City of San Angelo adopts its SWMP Phased implementation over 3-4 years 2010 – City of San Angelo implements Stormwater Utility Fee to fund the SWMP (adopted 12/15/09)
