New York City Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) 2016 progress report
Since the 1990s, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) has imposed certain stormwater-related requirements on Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) infrastructure operated by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), which were incorporated into the individual permits for DEP's 14 wastewater treatment plants. The City's MS4 permit requires the development by August 1, 2018 of a Stormwater Management Program (SWMP) Plan, the goal of which will be to reduce pollution that reaches waterbodies through the MS4.
