Stormwater Management

Public Cooperation Information

Stormwater from our community is transferred directly from our inlets and ditches to our lakes, streams, and rivers. Stormwater effectively accumulates and transfers pollutants. 

Sources of these pollutants include:

• Changing motor-oil on impervious driveways (PDF)
• Improperly disposing leftover paint and household chemicals (PDF)
• Lawn-chemicals (PDF)
• Leaking trash containers (PDF)
• Littering (PDF)
• Operating vehicles that leak fluids (PDF)
• Pet-waste (PDF)
• Washing cars on pavement (PDF)

Collaborative Effort

Citizen cooperation is necessary to ensure that the City of Fremont is doing its part to make our nation a beautiful and safe place for future generations.

The Best Management Practices for Construction Sites brochure (PDF) contains examples and information to help contractors understand the requirements. 

The images are linked to additional information about runoff pollution sources and the necessary steps needed to avoid the spilling of these pollutants into our streams and rivers.
