The City of Inkster is regulated by a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit issued by the State of Michigan. The permit regulates the quality of stormwater that discharges from the City’s stormwater system. The permit is effective city-wide in areas of the city that are served by separate storm drains. It is not effective in areas where sewers are combined.
This Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) has been developed for the city as required by the MS4 permit. It includes the following sections:
- APPENDIX A: Outfall and Point of Discharge Information
- APPENDIX B: Enforcement Response Procedure
- APPENDIX C: Public Participation/Involvement Program (PPP)
- APPENDIX D: Public Education Program (PEP)
- APPENDIX E1: Illicit Discharge Elimination Program (IDEP)
- APPENDIX E2: Illicit Discharge Elimination Ordinance
- APPENDIX F: Construction Stormwater Runoff Control
- APPENDIX G: Post-Construction Stormwater Runoff Program
- APPENDIX H: Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping
- APPENDIX H2: Spill Response
- APPENDIX I: Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Implementation Plan
Inkster participates in the Alliance of Rouge Communities’ collaborative plans for the PPP, PEP, IDEP, and TMDL requirements of the permit.
