The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) is the agency charged with managing San Francisco’s wastewater system, which collects both sanitary flows and stormwater runoff. The SFPUC is working to improve the system’s stormwater drainage performance and its wastewater treatment efficiency. The SFPUC Stormwater Program aims to comply with regulatory requirements, maximize sewer system performance, engage community members in its work, improve watershed function, enhance the environmental quality of San Francisco’s neighborhoods, and protect the water quality of the San Francisco Bay and Pacific Ocean.
To achieve these goals, the SFPUC is developing a policy to require that new and redevelopment projects in San Francisco take advantage of green technologies for managing stormwater runoff. Click on the following icons to read more about our programs.
