Stormwater, also spelled as storm water, is the water produced during precipitation and melting of snow or ice. Pollutants produced by human activities are deposited on impervious surfaces (parking lots, roads, buildings, compacted soil). Stormwater carries pollutants and eventually flows into rivers, lakes or oceans to cause runoff pollution during precipitation. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program addresses water pollution by regulating point sources that discharge pollutants to waters of the United States. The NPDES stormwater program regulates discharges from municipal storm sewer systems, construction activities, industrial activities, the oil and gas industry, transportation and EPA-designated agencies. Operators of these water sources must be required to obtain a NPDES permit before discharging stormwater.
