Stormwater program offers free native trees
Native trees – those naturally occurring in a specific area – offer ecological, aesthetic and practical benefits that make them ideal for the suburban landscape.
System Management
A storm sewer system is a network of pipes, inlets, outlets, and other conveyance structures both "gray" and "green" that are designed to collect stormwater runoff from our streets and homes.
Water Quality
Because of poor agricultural practice, legacy land-use issues, and developmental land cover change, there are a myriad of water quality concerns across the county. These include loss of aquatic habitat, nutrient enrichment, harmful algal blooms, pathogens, loss of life and property, as well as impacts to our drinking water.
