Every time it rains, water runs off the land as stormwater. As it flows over rooftops, lawns, driveways and streets, stormwater picks up pollutants and debris.
EPA’s National Stormwater Calculator is a desktop application that estimates the annual amount of rainwater and frequency of runoff from a specific site anywhere in the United States.
Everyone should report spills, clogged catch basins or retention ponds, illegal dumping, and illicit connections or discharges into the streets or storm drain system.
Clean Water. Strong Communities.
Water is the foundation for healthy communities and strong economies.
In May 2021, we worked in partnership with Georgia Public Broadcasting to create an hour-long, interactive, live program about Georgia’s amazing water resources and why it is important to protect and conserve them. Over 81,000 students, teachers, and parents tuned in for the live program from classrooms and living rooms all across our state and beyond! You can still view this program today!
