Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System – MS4

By Vince Conti

Back in September, Borough Administrator Manny Parada warned the council that the borough might need to hire as many as 14 new employees due to changes in state regulations related to public water systems. Parada’s statements touched on two basic areas of water system oversight and played a role in the council’s decision to move ahead with studies required for evaluating a potential stormwater utility.

The stormwater utility is seen as a means of creating a revenue stream for projects involving a number of water systems and flooding issues, thereby relieving pressure on the cap-constrained municipal budget.
