The Town of Gilbert is regulated through a permit issued by the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) for storm water discharges to waters of the United States . In compliance with our permit requirements, the Town developed a Storm Water Management Program (SWMP) which describes how the Town will address the following topics:
- Public Education and Outreach
- Public Participation and Involvement
- Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination
- Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control
- Post-Construction, Development and Redevelopment Controls
- Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations
The SWMP is available on our website at:

Additionally, in August 2004, the Gilbert Town Council passed the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Ordinance. Development of an ordinance was a requirement of our permit. The ordinance prohibits the discharge of pollutants into the Town's storm water drainage system, which includes the streets, curbs, and gutters.
The Storm Water Pollution Prevention Ordinance is available on our website at:
