Drainage Inspection Program

The City inspects stormwater facilities to ensure they continue to function/comply with design and construction standards. Since owners of stormwater facilities typically receive a discounted stormwater utility fee, it is to the property owner's advantage to maintain them. Noncompliance could result in the owner losing this discount and/or being fined.

In accordance with Federal regulations, Redmond enforces municipal environmental codes dealing with the stormwater pollution/illicit discharges to the City's surface and ground waters. Staff members work with businesses in a cooperative effort to reduce pollution and bring operations into compliance.

To learn more about maintaining your stormwater facilities, review this publication: Maintaining Your Private Stormwater System.  (This brochure is in pdf format.  In order to view or print the document, you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer.
