概要

Beach closures after rain aren't random. They're the result of a stormwater and sewer system that was never designed to handle what we're asking it to do — and in hundreds of American cities, including many in New York State, that system is sending raw sewage and dozens of chemicals directly into lakes and rivers when it downpours.

In this episode, environmental scientist Ally breaks down how stormwater runoff works, what combined sewer systems are and why they overflow, what the New York State Sewage Pollution Right to Know Law means for you, and why your lake looks and smells different after a heavy storm - scientific facts, articles, and research - all in plain English.

Topics covered: stormwater runoff, combined sewer overflows, CSOs, impervious surfaces, water pollution, beach closures, New York water quality, drinking water safety, lake pollution, SPDES permits, green infrastructure.
