When did Oak Lodge Sanitary District start its Surface Water Management (SWM) program, and what is its purpose?
The District has operated its Surface Water Management (SWM) program since July, 1993. The purpose of the program is to coordinate the operation, maintenance, repair, planning, and improvement of the public storm sewer system within the District’s service area, and ensure that it is managed in conformance with the federal National Pollution Discharge Elimination System permit issued under the provisions of the National Clean Water Act. The SWM program personnel will be happy to investigate your problem, suggest a solution, resolve it if possible, or refer it to the proper agency for follow-up.
