The runoff picks up pollutants like trash, floatable material, chemicals, oils, and dirt/sediment that can harm our rivers, streams, lakes, and coastal waters. Unlike sanitary sewer systems, stormwater typically receives no treatment.Trash, often referred to as floatables, is a pollutant. Trash in waters can prevent beneficial uses, degrade habitats and harm wildlife, and may endanger peoples health. The Clean Water Act Section 303 (d) requires all states to evaluate andModel TT-01identify water bodies where current pollution controls are insufficient to attainwater quality standards. Over 200 individual water body reaches in various states have been listed impaired for trash, debris or floatables since 1996.To protect these resources, communities, construction companies, industries,and others, use stormwater controls, known as best management practices (BMPs). These BMPs filter out pollutants and/or prevent pollution by controlling it at its source. The benefits of effective stormwater runoff management include: protection of wetlands and aquatic ecosystems, improved quality of receiving waterbodies, conservation of water resources, Model SWPI protection of public health, and flood control.Complying with the CWA, states, agencies and municipalities require new and/or redeveloped sites of one or more acre, to control the transport of pollutants into public waterways through municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4) and other drainage systems.An example of an agency addressing the transport of floatable is the requirement established by Harris County TX.The Harris County and Harris County Flood Control District require all projects that constitute new development or significant redevelopment install a post-construction BMP to address floatable pollutants being discharged during and following rain events. Additional information may be found in Harris County Flood Control Policy, Criteria, and Procedure Manual for Approval, and Acceptance of Infrastructure. Floatable collection devices include TrashTrooper, floatable collection screens,bar screen devices, inlet debris screens and pond outlet devices.76'
