Innovative and Integrated Stormwater Management Report

NYC Department of Environmental Protection

The New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) owns and operates one of the largest wastewater and stormwater collection systems in the world including a combined sewer system. To develop and create the most effective stormwater management program possible, DEP looked to its peers in other municipalities to understand which methods have been successful in implementing stormwater management programs and meeting regulatory requirements. This report provides an overview to enable communities to make informed and effective decisions for our community as we continue to develop and implement our stormwater management program.
