PGH2O in the Community: Additional Stormwater Resources for Pittsburgh

Stay informed regarding all things stormwater, including important resources that can help reduce your monthly stormwater charge.

Explore the below resources for information about the stormwater fee, the stormwater credit program, customer help, and a web map where you can search your property.

Stormwater Credit Program:

Our Stormwater Credit Program offers a discount on the monthly stormwater fee. Property owners choosing to manage stormwater on site may reduce their monthly stormwater charge. Installing stormwater management systems such as a rain garden or an underground stormwater system on private property are examples of how a private property owner may earn a credit. Learn more information and apply on our Stormwater Fee website.

Fee Finder Website:

Use our searchable map to view the amount of impervious surface on your property and understand your stormwater fee. To use the site:

  • Launch the Fee Finder website
  • Enter your address in the search bar and press enter
  • Click inside the boundaries of your property to view details about its impervious surface and the number of Equivalent Residential Units (ERU’s)
  • To determine your fee amount, multiply the number of ERU’s by the stormwater rate of $7.95 and subtract any credits that may apply.

Disputing the Stormwater Fee:

If you have questions about the amount of impervious surface calculated for your property or believe there is a discrepancy, please contact our Customer Service department by calling 412-255-2423 (Press 5).

Visit our Stormwater Plans website for more information about planning activities currently underway.

Please call PWSA Customer Service at 412-255-2423 (Press 5) or info@pgh2o.com for questions about the stormwater fee or general questions about the credit program.
