The Water Quality Section has developed and implemented several programs intended to improve the overall quality of stormwater runoff within the City and County of Denver. These programs include measures to reduce pollutants from construction sites and new developments; to educate the public on water quality; to prohibit illicit discharges to the storm sewer; and to assist industrial facilities in implementing stormwater management plans.

Our education and outreach program includes the development of three "Clear Choices for Clean Water" educational brochures titled:

"A Guide for Managing Household Waste"
"Lawn Care, Landscaping and Erosion Control"
"Tips for Construction Site Operators"

Denver has also established a Stormwater Quality Hotline number - 303-446-3700. Please call for more information.
