Stormwater

Stormwater is rain and snow melt that runs off rooftops, paved streets, highways, and parking lots. As it runs off, it picks up pollution like oil, fertilizers, pesticides, soil, trash, and animal manure. Most stormwater is not treated, even when it goes into a street drain. It flows downstream directly into streams, lakes, and marine waters.

Stormwater runoff is the leading threat to our urban waters, streambeds, banks, and habitats. 

Stormwater Facilities

Properly functioning stormwater facilities are vital to protect the quality of our community waterways. The City of Medina is obligated under federal mandate to perform annual inspections of all stormwater facilities as part of meeting our National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit requirements.
