Storm Ponds: Stay Safe, Stay Back, Stay Off
Storm ponds may look inviting; however, you and your pets are not permitted to enter or walk on the water. These ponds collect and store runoff water from parking lots, sidewalks, and roads, allowing sediments to settle and providing some treatment for pollutants before slowly releasing the treated water back into rivers, creeks, and streams.
