Report a Concern or Make a Suggestion

To share your ideas about stormwater management in your community or provide feedback about local stormwater education, please email [email protected]. Your input helps us improve stormwater management practices across Iowa.

Many larger communities in Iowa are members of the Iowa Stormwater Education Partnership (ISWEP). Cities enrolled in the ISWEP partnership have taken positive strides toward improving stormwater quality through training and public education. If your city is a member, we will know the correct person to contact if you are experiencing a stormwater related issue.

What is a “Stormwater Concern?”

Federal law prohibits unlawful discharge of stormwater pollutants into most waterways. Since storm sewers are directly connected to local rivers and streams, disposing of liquids, chemicals, and other pollutants down the storm drain is unlawful. Even grass clippings should not be sent down the storm drain! We need your help in spotting these issues.

Whether it’s social media content, printed materials, or other outreach ideas, your input helps us create better educational tools.
