Stormwater Logo Contest!! The Town of Hope Mills needs a logo for the Stormwater Program and would like a student to design it! Three students will receive a $100 prize for their submission! The following link provides complete contest details and rules: Click to download an entry and certification form: The Town of Hope Mills is working to protect our local streams from being damaged by stormwater pollution. When it rains, pollutants such as fertilizer, oil, grease and pet waste are picked up from the ground and carried into the nearest storm drain down the street. The storm drains are not connected to a treatment system, so everything that flows down the drain goes directly to the nearest water body. In 2005, we received a Phase II Stormwater permit that requires the town to develop and implement a stormwater management program that includes the following measures: Teach citizens and business owners about how they can prevent and reduce stormwater pollution. Involve citizens in developing and implementing our local stormwater program. Look for and remove unlawful discharges to the stormwater sewer system. Regulate new development activities to ensure that they provide appropriate treatment for stormwater before it reaches local waterways. Reduce and eliminate pollution resulting from our activities. |
