 While dumping chests of tea into the Boston Harbor on the night of the Boston Tea Party in 1773 may have been an iconic event of American History and the rumblings of the American Revolutionary War which led to our country’s formation, the continued dumping of things into the water ways of our nation, in 1969 led to the Cuyahoga River Fire which brought about the Clean Water Act in 1972.

 The founders of the Clean Water Act built into the regulation a mechanism to make sure that the storm water industry remains in constant flux.

And it’s fast approaching the deadline for that review — or as it is technically called — the Annual Comprehensive Facility Compliance Evaluation and Annual Report.
