Stormwater Utility Division

The Stormwater Utility Program was created in 1993 in response to Miami-Dade County’s Stormwater Utility Ordinance. The City of Hialeah administers, staffs, and manages the utility through its Streets Department. This program serves as a dedicated source of funding for stormwater management in the City under Section 403.0893, Florida Statutes.

The Stormwater Utility Program also administers the City’s USEPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) - Permit Number FLS000023. This permit covers all areas within the political boundary of the City of Hialeah served by, or otherwise contributing to, discharges from municipal separate storm sewers to the waters of the United States.

The City of Hialeah is a founding member of The Florida Association of Stormwater Utilities (FASU).
