What is a Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP)?

The Storm Water Management Plan (SWMP) is plan that details how each munincipality will comply with the Federal and State requirements for reducing storm water discharges to the waterways, lakes, harbors and ultimately the oceans. The NY State DEC administers the program. Each year the Village must submit a report to the State outlining how it has met the minimum requirements under a number of areas such as "Public Education" and "Illicit Discharge Detection".
