| Abstract | In 2007, the City of Corvallis was issued a Phase II NPDES permit from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality for non-point source pollution. In Corvallis, the majority of the stormwater conveyance system is separate from the sanitary sewer system. During a rain event, stormwater flows through pipes or over land into the nearest creek or stream, and then into either the Willamette or Marys Rivers. The City of Corvallis Stormwater Management Program Plan as created to outline the ways that Corvallis would meet the NPDES Phase II permit requirement. One approach includes working to change behaviors of Corvallis residents and businesses to prevent pollution runoff. This paper discusses a new program, Healthy Soils for Healthy Streams, which is intended to be on of the multiple business pollution prevention programs in Corvallis. |
