Stormwater Management
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) adopted a new permit (MS4 Phase II), aimed at reducing contaminants in storm water runoff from municipalities. The City of Pharr has been aggressively proactive in complying with State regulations. In November of 2008, the City of Pharr as a member of the Storm Water Task Force aided by Texas A&M (TAMU-K), applied and was granted the permit by TCEQ for the MS4 Permit. The MS4 permit requires the City to enact storm water public education and outreach programs which the city has done regularly. The Storm Water Management Plan is projected to be fully operational in a period of five (5) years. We are currently transitioning from year two (2) into year (3) in which, is the ordinance enforcement side of regulating storm water rules in new construction building in the City of Pharr.
