Dallas' Stormwater Management Permit Renewal
The City of Dallas is permitted by the State of Texas to discharge from the storm sewer system into local creeks, streams, lakes and the Trinity River. That permit has been recently renewed. You can see what the City is doing to try to prevent pollution of the permitted discharge (the City Stormwater Management Program or "SWMP") by viewing the annual report.
