Stormwater Quality Program
County of Sacramento

The Sacramento County Stormwater Quality Program (within the Department of Water Resources) works to clean urban stormwater runoff and to protect our local creeks and rivers. It is a partner in the larger Sacramento Stormwater Quality Partnership (the Partnership) that covers the Sacramento County area — including the Cities of Sacramento, Citrus Heights, Elk Grove, Folsom, Galt, and Rancho Cordova. The Monitoring and Target Pollutants (Mercury, IPM-toolkit, etc) program elements of the stormwater quality program are accomplished jointly with the Partnership.
