Why is there so much concern about storm water and impervious coverage?
A. The state of Pennsylvania is mandating that all townships begin enforcing stricter standards of containing storm water runoff on your property. When homeowners decide to remodel it allows townships to require that increased storm water runoff be contained in some manner. Each township enforces their regulations in a unique way. We can assist you with the township ordinances and you are best served by working on this information early in the process through your township, builder and architect or engineer.
