Stormwater Management

The goal of Erie County’s Act 167 planning process is to provide a county-wide comprehensive program to assist in the planning and management of stormwater. With coordination of the thirty-eight (38) municipalities in Erie County, the resulting stormwater management ordinance will address severe and ongoing stormwater related problems in critical areas throughout the County. Furthermore, cooperating member municipalities will be able to adopt stormwater management controls that will have a collectively beneficial impact on the waters of Erie County and those "problem" areas that presently remain unmanaged.
