West Jordan operates a Phase II MS4 stormwater program prohibiting non-stormwater discharges to the storm drain system, with enforcement under Title 8.
West Jordan's stormwater ordinance implements the federal Clean Water Act MS4 permit issued by Utah DEQ. Illicit discharges to storm drains, including soapy wash water, paint rinse, oil, pet waste, and yard clippings, are prohibited. Construction sites one acre or larger require a Utah Pollution Discharge Elimination System permit and approved Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Violations can result in fines up to $1,000 per day per violation.
