Stormwater Management in West Virginia
Surrounded by mountains, rivers, and lakes, West Virginia’s trademark is natural beauty. Protecting these resources for future generations means implementing effective and safe stormwater management practices.
AQUALIS can help West Virginians get ahead of stormwater runoff. As a leading stormwater maintenance company serving this northern state, we deftly implement management practices to control runoff and ensure it is clean when exiting your property.
How Stormwater Runoff Impacts West Virginia
Situated entirely in the Appalachian Mountain region, West Virginia is known for parallel ridges cut by streams and canyons called water gaps. Forests, caves, and high peaks also dot the landscape.
These resources are essential for the state. They provide drinking water and support outdoor recreation, farming, manufacturing, and mining operations.
Any developments built to accommodate people and businesses moving into the state add impervious surfaces, which rely on drains, sewer systems, and ditches to carry away stormwater. It often empties into the same bodies of water used for recreation and drinking water collection.
Debris, pollutants, and other items are also along for the ride, and they are known to degrade water quality. Additional issues associated with uncontrolled stormwater runoff include:
- Flooding
- Erosion
- Turbidity
- Storm And Sanitary Sewer System Overflow
- Infrastructure Damage
