DISCUSSION OF PADUCAH'S STORMWATER PERMIT THROUGH KENTUCKY
DIVISION OF WATER
Communications Manager Pam Spencer offered the following summary:
"City Engineer Rick Murphy along with John Lyons of Strand Associates, Inc.
provided an overview of the City's stormwater permit through the Kentucky Division
of Water as required by the federal Clean Water Act. The main goals of this permit
are to reduce pollution and protect water quality. Paducah is responsible for
regulating its Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) which includes the
various storm water drainage systems such as streets, catch basins, storm inlets, and
other mechanisms. The latest review of Paducah's MS4 permit by the Kentucky
Division of Water notes that the City needs to amend a section of its Code of
Ordinances to include a stormwater runoff quality treatment standard. "
