Stormwater

Stormwater is water that originates from precipitation events, snowmelt, or various industrial and agricultural activities. It becomes surface runoff when it travels over impervious surfaces and does not soak into the ground. Because stormwater runoff accumulates a host of contaminants as it travels into storm drains and other collection systems, it is regulated by the EPA according to the Federal Clean Water Act.
