Stormwater management includes involving all residents and property owners in Chapel Hill in learning about our local water resources, how we affect water quality and flooding potential, and what we can do to minimize pollution and damage.
We travel to festivals and fairs with our education booth, make classroom presentations; give presentations to community organizations; welcome volunteers in our storm drain marking campaign, Stream Watch, and stream clean ups; develop information for homeowners and commercial establishments and businesses; and bring awareness to water quality issues through the media.
If you are interested in presentations, volunteer opportunities, or other aspects of this program, please contact Stormwater Management at (919) 969-RAIN (7246) or e-mail
Public education and involvement is an important component of the Town’s NPDES Phase II permit.
