What Contributes to Water Pollution?
When rain falls on impervious surfaces (roofs, roads, sidewalks, driveways, lawns, etc.) it collects chemicals, heavy metals, fertilizers, and loose soils. Historically, rain was collected and removed from the site as fast as possible. This practice, however, reduces the quality of our lakes, streams and groundwater. By utilizing on-site stormwater management practices through natural process, stormwater can be treated before it enters our waterways.
