The Public Works Department has drafted the Stormwater Management Program to meet the requirements of the Western Washington Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit. The Municipal Stormwater Permit is a requirement of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permits Program in the Federal Clean Water Act. Permit authority in Washington State has been delegated to the State Department of Ecology. Ecology issued a Phase II municipal Stormwater General Permit to more than 100 municipalities, including Everett, in early 2007.

The City's Stormwater Management Program document describes actions the city will take through the year 2011 to maintain compliance with the Permit's Stormwater Management Program conditions, which are designed to reduce stormwater runoff pollution to Everett's waterways.

The City wishes to involve the public in the decision making processes involving the development and implementation of the Stormwater Management Program. Opportunities for public review and comment will be available as different elements of the Program are developed. These opportunities will include, but not be limited to the following.

·         Development and implementation of a Public Education and Outreach Plan.

·         Development and implementation of Ordinances required by the permit.

·         Other opportunities as they are identified will be posted on this website.

If you would like to be contacted directly when these opportunities become available,
