FY2026-FY2031 Proposed Capital Improvement Program

Capital Project Summary

Capital Project Number: WR1044

Activity #: C8026.8026.01

Capital Project Title: Non-County Owned Stormwater Facility Retrofits Asset Type: Watershed Restoration & Retrofit Asset Category: Watershed Restoration & Retrofit

Region: Countywide

Year Identified: 2019 Est Completion Date: 12/30/2031

Capital Project Status: Active

Capital Project Description: This project provides design and construction funds for recommended retrofits of existing best management practices identified in Watershed Assessments and Feasibility Studies identified on non-County owned property. The subprojects identified under this project are locations where there is little to no stormwater runoff control or treatment, where retrofit of the facility by the County can receive impervious surface crediting towards the NPDES MS4 permit, and where the impervious surface credit return on investment is maximized. Subprojects anticipated to be completed include facilities in the New Market, Spring Ridge, Ballenger Creek and Adamstown areas, along with projects in the Robin Meadows, Springdale, Vistas, and Greens subdivisions. Frederick County was issued our new MS4 Permit in December 2023. DEE evaluated our permit compliance strategy for the new permit cycle and found efficiencies with overall cost savings by grouping identified stream restoration and non-County owned facilities projects together in the Spring Ridge and Ballenger Creek community areas. This decreases our overall cost per credit towards permit compliance.
