Stormwater Management
Wyoming regulates stormwater discharges to its municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) under Code of Ordinances Chapter 68 (Stormwater). The city is a Phase II MS4 community under the federal Clean Water Act NPDES program, with permit issued by Michigan EGLE and a Storm Water Management Program coordinated through Public Works and the Lower Grand River Organization of Watersheds (LGROW). Stormwater leaving the city ultimately reaches Lake Michigan via Buck Creek and the Grand River.

Some RestrictionsFlood Zones
Wyoming participates in FEMA's National Flood Insurance Program through Kent County FIRMs. Special Flood Hazard Areas run along the Grand River (which forms Wyoming's northern boundary near 28th Street SW and Burlingame), along Buck Creek (a 20.3-mile Grand River tributary that bisects the city), and along Plaster Creek. Floodplain construction triggers Michigan EGLE permits under Part 31 of NREPA (MCL 324.3101+) and Wyoming's zoning ordinance density rules in Section 90-204.
