Stormwater Consortium of Rockland County
CONTACT LIST: STORMWATER CONSORTIUM OF ROCKLAND COUNTY
The Stormwater Consortium of Rockland County was formed between Cornell Cooperative Extension and the towns and villages of Rockland County to collaborate and share resources on stormwater management. Establishing a Consortium has provided a platform for the exchange of information, grant funding, and ideas for meeting the current and proposed permit requirements.
The Consortium is comprised of all 23 Towns and Villages within Rockland County who must abide by the NYSDEC stormwater permit (the ‘Municipal Separate Storm Sewer (“MS4”) permit). The intention of the MS4 permit is to reduce Pollutants of Concern commonly associated with stormwater pollution to the Maximum Extent Practicable. The MS4 permit has six minimum measures, as outlined below.
1. Public Education and Outreach
2. Public Involvement and Participation
3. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination(IDDE)
4. Construction Site Stormwater Runoff Control
5. Post Construction Stormwater Management in New Development and Redevelopment
6. Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping in Municipal Operations.
Monthly Meetings & Minutes
The Stormwater Consortium hosts monthly meetings on the Third Tuesday of each month, with the exception of August, beginning at 10:00 am.
The meetings are predominantly held via Zoom or at Cornell Cooperative Extension Rockland County Education Center at 10 Patriot Hills Drive, Stony Point, NY 10980. The meeting minutes can be viewed here from our archive. Zoom recordings are available upon request.
