Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program

The 1987 Amendments to the Clean Water Act were a two-phased comprehensive national program to address pollutants in storm water runoff.  The program covers construction sites, industrial activities, and municipal storm sewer systems.

These storm water regulations are part of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit program. Following these storm water regulations to improve water quality by reducing or eliminating polluted storm water runoff, the City of Edina developed a plan to reduce or eliminate the exposure of oil and grease, pesticides, fertilizers, sediment, de-icing salts and other chemicals used by the City to storm water. The City also developed Best Management Practices (BMPs) to reduce or eliminate the exposure of City activities into the storm water system.
