STORMWATER ADVISORY TEAM (SWAT): Public Participation Encouraged
RVSS' Stormwater permit requires that the public be provided opportunities to participate in the development of the agency's Stormwater Management Program. One way for the public to be involved is to participate in the regional Stormwater Advisory Team (SWAT), a group whose purpose is to support and assist agencies with implementation of their Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit (the stormwater permit).
- The SWAT meets quarterly from 10:00-11:30 the third Wednesday of the month in January, April, July, and October at the ODOT office at 100 Antelope Rd.
- The bylaws provide information on how the SWAT functions.
- For more information on the Stormwater Advisory Team, please contact the RVSS District Engineer.
The Rogue Valley Stormwater Quality Design Manual can be found on "Stormwater Development Guidelines" page.
