Stormwater Maintenance
All stormwater infrastructures requires maintenance. The NPDES Permit requires the City of Camas (City) to comply with rules to protect our water resources ensuring that the stormwater drainage system and facilities are properly operating and maintained. The City sweeps all streets multiple times per year to promote water quality. The City Storm Sewer Systems O&M Manual is used as a guide to maintain the various stormwater components.
Every year the City inspects all public stormwater facilities and a number of private stormwater facilities. The City performs yearly routine maintenance on the stormwater facilities as needed. The City also coordinates with HOA’s and other private stormwater facility owners to complete necessary maintenance to ensure facilities are operating as intended.
