Texas State University became regulated in December 2013 under the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit, a state mandated stormwater protection permit. This will require additional measures to be taken in regards to stormwater runoff, including mandatory campus wide awareness training. This session will cover General Stormwater Awareness, Good Housekeeping/Pollution Prevention, and Illicit Discharge, Detection and Elimination trainings.
You will learn:
-What stormwater is and where it goes
-The concerns of stormwater runoff on it's path to the river
-How you can help protect the river and the creatures that inhabit it
-How to detect and report an illicit discharge
-Best practices for general facility maintenance, pollution prevention practices and good housekeeping procedures
