About Stormwater Services
The City’s Stormwater program is a requirement established by the federal government’s Clean Water Act (CWA), which is dedicated to implementing broad-based watershed strategies to reduce water pollution. The federal government requires the City of Asheville, and all similarly-sized U.S. cities, to create and maintain stormwater programs in an effort to restore and maintain the integrity of our nation’s waters by sharply reducing water pollution.
Other primary initiatives:
- Reduce stormwater infrastructure failures which may cause property damage and loss of life
- Reduce flooding on streets and private property
- Reduce environmental degradation due to sedimentation, erosion and illicit discharge
