The MS4 Permit, Stormwater Management Plan, and draft Annual Report can be found on the City’s website at the following address: www.cityofsalem.net/Pages/ms4-permits-and-annual-reports.

The report is a requirement of the City’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit. The NPDES MS4 Permit requires the City to implement an approved Stormwater Management Plan and report annually on the status of that plan. It also requires the City to report on progress made toward specific permit requirements.
