Stormwater… Problems & Solutions Jim Nash

A water resources commissioner Then… Unique to Michigan Initially cleared swamps and marshes Each township had a drain commissioner

…and Now There are 83 counties in Michigan Only 66 of them have drain commissioners Environmental services Lake levels, soil erosion prevention, drainage Water treatment and distribution Wastewater collection and treatment

Important Keys for Clean Water No Single Program Holds the Solution Educating the Public / Community Leaders Land Use Planning Promote Green Infrastructure Alternatives Embrace New Technology

Pollution Sources Have Evolved 1972 Clean Water Act Point Sources Were Dominant Pollution Cause Today, Pollution Sources Have Evolved Stormwater Runoff, non-point source pollution Failing Septic Systems Jurisdictional Lines add Complexity

New Stormwater Rules More comprehensive than 2003 permit Requires standards ordinance: Limits volume Establishes quality of discharge Doesn’t exceed pre-development rate First 1-inch (90% of storms) must be treated

How Our Customers See the New Rules

Engaging Municipalities in Climate Adaptation for Water Resources: The Role of Boundary Organizations Rebecca Esselman Huron River Watershed Council

Creating Climate Resilient Communities Goal: pilot a process to address local climate change impacts by convening interested stakeholders to determine information needs and strategies that build resiliency in the watershed

Sector-based Workgroups WATER INFRASTRUCTURE: For practitioners involved with water utilities, wastewater treatment facilities, stormwater management IN-STREAM FLOWS: For dam operators, fisheries biologists, and hydrologists NATURAL INFRASTRUCTURE: For land managers involved with natural areas preservation, restoration, and management
