Department Operations and Best Management Practices
All City facilities and operations have been evaluated for their potential to generate polluted
stormwater runoff. Facility supervisors, department heads, and/or the Stormwater
Administrator are responsible for developing and implementing proper procedures for daily
activities as well as maintenance and inspection schedules to reduce stormwater pollution.
The table below lists departments with their respective operations. Additionally, corresponding
best management practices and maintenance/inspection schedules are provided in the table.
