Stormwater & Drainage


The City of Raleigh administers several programs to manage both the quantity and quality of stormwater runoff. Stormwater is rain that is not absorbed into the earth but instead enters storm drainage structures, pipe systems and open drainage channels on public and private property in the Capital City. Stormwater can carry harmful pollutants, cause flooding, erode topsoil and stream banks, and destroy habitats.
