BACKGROUND:
City of Pueblo has had a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) Permit with
the Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment since 2003. This permit
regulates stormwater runoff within the city limits of Pueblo and authorizes the discharge
into the Arkansas River.
In April 2016, a new MS4 permit was issued to the City that contains numerous revisions
from the previous permit. Some of the revisions has required the Stormwater Enterprise
to seek the assistance of a consulting service to assure the permit requirements are being
met. The consultant will assist with implementing improvements and updates to the
Stormwater Enterprise current program for maintaining compliance with the new MS4
Permit and its new requirements.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Funds in the amount of $50,000 from SW1803 will be transferred to SW1805 –
Stormwater Consultant Service.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
None
ALTERNATIVES:
Denying the Ordinance will cause the project to be canceled and the Stormwater
Enterprise will not meet the new MS4 Permit requirements.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
