What We Do
The Benton County Stormwater Program’s main goal is to reduce the amount of pollution and sediment entering our rivers and streams. We have administered a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) stormwater program since 2007 as part of the national Clean Water Act.
The Benton County Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) outlines how we are meeting our permitting requirements through the NPDES.
Benton County uses Best Management Practices (BMPs) to minimize environmental impacts during work in County facilities, roadways, and construction sites.
