Residential (Single Family and Multi-Family with less than 5 units) - $0.274 daily OR approximately $8.33/month
Non-Residential - $0.188/day per 2000 square ft of impervious area OR approximately $5.72/month per 2000 square ft of impervious area; with 2000 square feet as the minimum, rounded to the nearest 2000 square feet
The monthly amounts above are taking the daily rate times 365 and then dividing by 12.

Did You Know?
Norfolk's comprehensive program addresses the quality (pollution reduction) and quantity (flood control) of our storm water runoff, while meeting state and federal environmental regulations. Norfolk's storm water system consists of 349 miles of pipes,
137 miles of ditches (33 tidal), 13 storm water ponds, 10 storm water pump stations, and 1100 outfalls discharging to waterways.
Sources of Pollution
Water is essential for life. It is our most precious natural resource. Surface waters - such as rivers, lakes and the Chesapeake Bay - can easily become polluted. Both point and nonpoint sources contribute to water pollution. Storm water runoff comes from many diffuse (or nonpoint) sources.
Another Fact
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates that at least 50 percent of our nation's water pollution is caused by storm water runoff.
