City of Oberlin Phase II Storm
Water Management Program
Water Resource
Statement
The importance of
restoring and maintaining the health of our
water resources is now coming to the full
attention of both policy makers and the general
public. Along with regulation changes at all
levels of federal, state and municipal
governments, there is a growing national
awareness and concern among community members
who are finding ways to get involved with the
issues of urban storm water management and
maintaining healthy stream corridors in their
region.
In Oberlin, we
have considerable water resources to protect.
The City of Oberlin has recently issued a
revised Storm Water Management Program in
compliance with upcoming Phase II EPA water
quality standards. A Storm Water Task Force was
initiated by the city, as was the Plum Creek
Riparian Corridor Restoration Project. All of
these programs bring a new level of engagement
to our community about the issues of water
resource management, and community members are
encouraged to get involved.
Please take a
moment to review the information provided here,
and check back periodically for updates about
City of Oberlin efforts to address issues with
our water resources and how you can get
involved!
