What You Can Do 

There are a variety of ways individual households can do their part to improve our ability to address stormwater issues and to prevent runoff from transporting pollutants into local streams that feed into Falls Lake.  Help keep these stormwater pollutants from going into the storm drains.

• Litter
  • Volunteer for the City's fall Litter Sweep. Email planning@cityofcreedmoor.org for more information. 
• Pet Waste 
• Yard Waste
• Auto Waste
• Household Waste
• Pesticides and Herbicides

Stormwater Management Program

In 2011, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) issued the City an NPDES Phase II permit that regulates stormwater discharges into city storm drains. The NPDES permit became effective February 1, 2018 and will expire at midnight January 31, 2023. The permit requires the City implement the following six minimum measures:

1. Public Education and Outreach
2. Public Involvement and Participation
3. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE) 
   • Food Trucks 
4. Construction Site Runoff Controls
5. Post Construction Site Runoff Controls
6. Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping
   • Driveway Culvert Maintenance
