I still can't believe that DPW lets developers get away with no on-site stormwater management. That property outfalls directly in to Dawson Creek.


Where's it been going for 40 years? It's not like the improvements will be adding stormwater to Dawson Creek above what's been going there since the original center was built -- and I don't know that it's ever been a problem.

I'm not getting what your gripe is here.

My gripe is EBR having a stormwater ordinance that is not enforced and officials pretty much completely ignoring the Clean Water Act. You are correct, the new site will pretty much maintain the existing discharge, but it's not about keeping it status quo, it should be about reducing runoff volume and increasing runoff water quality.

It blows my mind that people in this state celebrate our outdoors while polluting the very water systems they so celebrate.
