Ada County Highway District is responsible for planning, designing and managing efficient traffic flow and traffic safety throughout Ada County. ACHD’s Stormwater Quality staff oversees the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits administered by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality.

These permits require ACHD to implement programs to protect receiving waters, like the Boise River, from stormwater runoff pollution.

Stormwater Management Programs outline ACHD’s commitment to NPDES compliance and improved water quality through programs for public education and outreach, illicit discharge detection and elimination, erosion and sediment control, stormwater monitoring, investigation and monitoring of dry weather flows, outfall inventory and inspection, and promoting green stormwater infrastructure.
