a pipe buried beneath the street that is designed to carry storm-related water runoff
A sewer carrying only runoff from storm events.
an open or enclosed conduit to rapidly remove surface runoff from rains or melting snows; most carry the runoff to the nearest natural draw, gully, or creek.
A system of pipes, generally underground, carrying only stormwater runoff from building and land surfaces; as distinguished from a sanitary sewer.
A separate sewer that carries runoff from storms, surface drainage, and street wash, but does not include domestic and industrial wastes.
A sewer system designed to collect storm water, separate from the waste water system.
A sewer that is designed to carry away water from storms, but not sewage.
a system of pipes (separate from sanitary sewers) that carries only storm water runoff from buildings and land surfaces.
A sewer system that collects surface runoff instead of waste water. These two types of water are kept separate because they require different processing before release to the environment.
a sewer intended to carry only storm waters, surface runoff, street wash waters, and drainage.
An underground pipe that carries rainwater off pavements, roofs and lawns and into a nearby stream
A system of street drains and underground piping that transports rain and snow (storm water) runoff. Historically, storm water runoff was transported directly to a stream, river, or lake. Today, it is highly recommended (and often required) that best management practices be used for storm water management and treatment. In NPDES permits, the storm sewer system is known as the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System ( MS4)
A sewer that carries stormwater, surface drainage, street wash, and other wash waters but excludes sewage and industrial wastes. Also called storm drain.
The underground sewer system designed to receive storm water or rainwater that has become runoff. This system carries water away to storm channels or the North Saskatchewan River.
A drain line, which is not connected to the sewer line, removes all other wastewater from a home.
A system of pipes (separate from sanitary sewers) that carry only water runoff from building and land surfaces.
a sewer that carries only surface runoff, street wash, and snow melt from the land. In a separate sewer system, storm sewers are completely separate from those that carry domestic and commercial wastewater (sanitary sewers).
A conduit used for conveyance of rain water.
Plumbing system to carry rainwater from roof drains or gutters.
