Stormwater Success
Ace Your County Stormwater Inspection!
Since 2009, new developments are required to manage their stormwater by using Best Management Practices (BMPs). BMPs are required to be maintained by the property owner and are inspected every three years by Anne Arundel County inspectors. Older communities have stormwater ponds. Oftentimes, residents and HOAs leaders do not understand the maintenance requirements and are failing these inspections which can lead to significant financial penalties.
WSA partnered with HOA leaders, development professionals, property managers, environmental experts, and Anne Arundel County staff to develop a seminar, Stormwater Success, to help county residents and HOA leaders to navigate the inspection process.
