Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Amy (Birdie Bags) for my toiletries bag, I absolutely love it. My husband and I love travelling and my Birdie Bag is the ...perfect size to fit all my favourite bits in it for each trip, it's very well made and strong. It is for sure in the suitcase for our next trip.
Stormwater is rainwater plus anything the rain carries along with it. In urban areas, rain that falls on the roof of your house, or collects on paved areas like driveways, roads and footpaths is carried away through a system of pipes that is separate from the sewerage system. Unlike sewage, traditionally, stormwater has not been treated.
Stormwater runoff is the runoff drained into creeks, bays, and other water sources after a storm. Stormwater runoff includes all debris, chemicals, and other pollutants picked up by the rain or snow. Runoff occurs when there is more water than land can absorb. The excess liquid flows across the surface of the land and into nearby creeks, streams, or ponds. Runoff can come from both natural processes and human activity. The most familiar type of natural runoff is snowmelt. Mountains that cannot absorb water from heavy snowfalls produce runoff that turns into streams, rivers, and lakes.
