"Complete a table below for each river basin within the MS4 service area- The web sites and resource
contacts listed below under Information Sources will help you locate the information you need. Storm
water programs should be designed to address the specific needs of the community and water
resources they are intended to protect. If you haven't done so already, collect information on your city's
receiving waters and what pollutants and sources are impacting those waters- You should also know the
various uses of your receiving waters so you can design a program to protect those uses. Complete a
table below for each river basin within the MS4 service area. The web sites and resource contacts listed
