Why should I care about the stormwater for any damage runoff from my property?
Excessive runoff could flood and erode your neighbor’s property. And you could be held liable for any damages. Stormwater runoff can also carry harmful pollutants, pesticides, fertilizer, trash, automotive fuel and lubricants, and animal waste to storm drains or directly into streams. It is very important to remember that anything that enters a storm drain system always ends up in water that is used for swimming, boating, fishing, and prehaps most importantly, drinking.
