Water Pollution Prevention - Best Management Practices
The
City of Lawndale has two drainage systems –
the sewers and the storm drains. The storm drain system
was designed to prevent flooding by carrying excess
rainwater away from City streets and out to the ocean.
During storms in urban areas, rainwater may mix with
pollutants in industrial and household runoff, creating
storm water pollution.
