Pima Association of Governments’ Stormwater Management Working Group meets on an as-needed basis in order to pool resources and coordinate jurisdictional efforts across the region to keep stormwater clean. The Working Group includes jurisdictional staff, state agency representatives, community interest groups and industry professionals.
Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (AZPDES) regulations require that jurisdictions help protect the stormwater quality of the region. In response, the Working Group provides a forum for consistent messaging on stormwater pollution prevention and collaboration on such activities as the annual outreach campaign and construction industry seminar,where members share information on local and permitting requirements and information on best management practices.
Since its inception in 2001, the SWMWG has grown into an important forum for planning, program development, information exchange, regulatory updates, and cooperative projects. The group and its joint activities also provide networking opportunities for planners, outreach personnel, regulators and inspectors.
