The last version was somewhat inaccurate. The non point source provisions of the clean water act were adopted by congress in 1987. It took EPA a few years to issue the first NPDES permits under phase I of the program. Most permits were issued by EPA or the responsible state agencies to phase I permittees around 1991. Some areas were a bit earlier and some a bit later. Phase II of the program kicked in in 2003, which primarily added small cities of less than 100,000 persons, other large property owners such as school districts, and construction sites of 1 acre or more to the NPDES permitting requirements. - Richard Haimann
more commonly in the technical literature, stormwater is one word not two. obviously there should be a redirect from storm water. Anlace 20:20, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
I added sub-sections for Federal and State & local requirements. This is a rapidly evolving topic as more states are issuing regulations & publications, as well as municipalities (MS4s). The deleted statement, "Many States, ... have created their own regulatory agencies to act as an intermediary between the EPA and the municipalities and industries." is a bit confusing, as the authorized NPDES states (currently 45) carry out the federal CWA requirements directly, not as an intermediary between EPA & regulated facilities.

I can't remember anymore where to find that second paragraph. Could you please do it yourself? Thanks a lot. EvMsmile ( talk) 01:54, 18 March 2016 (UTC)
I added a link to the erosion control article. We also need an article for sediment control (silt fences, etc.) that we can link to. Moreau1 ( talk) 07:18, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
I came to this page to learn about the electrical and chemical properties of water, and instead I read about city filth, bureaucratic mumbo-jumbo, and similar mind-numbing topics. There is not a single article about actual water on this whole site! -- Anonymous — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.206.161.94 ( talk) 12:26, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
I believe that the history of storm water is a bit too short and awkward. The article begins discussion during the Bronze Age, references an ancient storm water conveyance system, and then comes to an abrupt end. I think there should be more of an in-depth history portion to the article--one that is primarily focused on the boom of the Industrial Revolution. I'm arbitrary choosing this time period due to the increase in industrial/commercial pollution associated with toxic runoff in storm water systems, and because of the associated growth of cities (and therefore impervious surfaces). Perhaps a brief discussion on the Industrial Revolution with a transition into the post WWII boom of both population and city space would be appropriate. Basically, I'm envisioning a History section which connects rapid socioeconomic growth within the last 100 or so years with increases in issues with storm water (be it conveyance and/or non-point source pollution).

In the intro stormwater harvesting is mentioned here: "Stormwater harvesting techniques and purification could potentially make some urban environments self-sustaining in terms of water." However no further examples or definitions of such harvesting methods are given. While I understand that Wikipedia is not meant to be a instruction guide or how-to page, I do think that such material and content would be very useful here. I am also working on the rainwater harvesting wikiversity projects, and one theme I am sensing here, is a lack of cohesion and consistent organization when it comes to differentiating between stormwater harvesting and rainwater harvesting (at least on the wikiversity page).
So basically I am asking two things here, one; if anyone has ideas for a new stormwater harvesting section that would be great and two; if clarification or explanation of the nuance between rainwater and stormwater harvesting could be given, I think that could help clear things up not only for users on wikipedia, but also users from wikiversity, which has redirects to this page and the rainwater harvesting page.
Thoughts?-- Ivangiesen ( talk) 14:32, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
Hello,
I have been assigned this wiki page to update as a class project. As the class is "Environmental Aqueous Geochemistry", I will be focusing on the geochemical attributes of stormwater runoff, implications of these attributes on downstream ecosystem processes, and impacts of integrated stormwater management practices on stormwater chemistry.
While this will be my main focus on the article, I will also make some small updates such as 1) rounding out the history section of the article, 2) minor adjustments to the content outline, and 3) updating the lead to include newly added information and improve readability.
These updates should be finished by mid December 2020.
