DuPage County is permitted to
discharge stormwater to the Waters of
the State through its coverage under the
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency
(IEPA) Permit No. ILR40 General NPDES
Permit for Discharges from Small
Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems
(MS4). ILR40 includes six minimum
control measures which are included in
the County’s stormwater management
program. DuPage County has
partnered with The Conservation
Foundation to help fulfill some of
the education and outreach and public
involvement/participation requirements
of their MS4 permit.
An
informed and knowledgeable community is
crucial to the success of a stormwater
management program.
The
Conservation Foundation maintains this
