The city of Camas is committed to protecting the quality of life as it relates to storm
drainage runoff. The need to protect the quality and quantity of storm drainage
generated is great, because it directly affects the quality of groundwater, surface
water and wildlife habitat . The following programs have been adopted by the city
to address this issue :
a. Use of the Puget Sound Water Quality Authority ' s stormwater
management standards to ensure proper quality and . quantity of run - off to the
surface and ground water. This criteria specified in this document have been
required by the city since 1991 .
b . Use of the City of Camas , Erosion Control Handbook to ensure
unrestricted washing of sediment to the stream and water courses of the city , or the
the storm drainage system . This document was adopted Ofor use on August 26 , 1991 .
c. Completion and establishment of the Fisher Basin Storm Utility District.
This district was formed to address the storm drainage generated in the northwest
portion of the city. This area encompasses the largest undeveloped or newly
developed sections of the city . More importantly, the drainage generated in this
area eventually enters Lacamas Lake and subsequently the Washougal River and
Columbia River. The fees collected in district are based on intensity of use. Said
fees are set aside to complete the prescribed improvements necessary to ensure the
quality and quantity of stormwater coming from this area .
In addition to the district itself, a second study was performed to investigate
the wetlands in this area and how they relate to the drainage patterns . This study
was funded by a grant from the Washington State Department of Ecology and the
Federal Environmental Protection Agency . .
