Stormwater management in the Township is a significant focus. Pennsylvania State regulations require the Townships to provide educational information to the public on stormwater management and ways to control our stormwater to lessen the impact on our streams and rivers.
Blair Township cooperates with Blair County Conservation District for the review of development plans, public education, outreach and enforcement. The Conservation District website gives an overview of stormwater management. The link is: www.blairconservationdistrict.org/stormwater_management.htm
The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection has a website with a variety of information on stormwater management: http://www.dep.pa.gov/Business/Water/CleanWater/StormwaterMgmt/Pages/Be-Stormwater-Smart-.aspx .
Informational Handouts you may find helpful in storm water management are posted below:
