Stormwater Quality Management

Prior to 2009, the Alameda Countywide Clean Water Program operated according to the Storm Water Quality Management Plan for FY2002-2008. The Plan describes the Program's activities to:

• Work with concerned citizens to increase community awareness, everyday pollution prevention and creek preservation.
• Work with local businesses to control pollution in storm drains and creeks.
• Monitor and assess pollution problems and health of local creeks and lakes.
• Design practices for city and county government operations that contribute less pollution.
