Proposed Urban Stormwater Infiltration Water Quality Policy

Proposed Urban Stormwater Infiltration Water Quality Policy

State Water Board staff are developing a proposed water quality control policy (proposed policy) that will set statewide standards for stormwater infiltration in urban areas. Projects that capture and infiltrate stormwater can improve water supply resiliency, protect surface water quality, restore habitats, and improve parks and green spaces. Groundwater recharge via stormwater infiltration is a viable option for storing harvested stormwater long term, especially in the semi-arid climates occurring across California.
