A Resolution urging the President and Congress of the United States and the Environmental Protection Agency to address the requirements of the MS4 storm water management program to relieve the burden on taxpayers.

This resolution (HR 286) is a non-binding request from Pennsylvania's House of Representatives urging the federal government to address requirements under the EPA's MS4 stormwater program. It states that Pennsylvania municipalities struggle to fund federally mandated stormwater management projects without federal support, leading to increased fees for residents and businesses. The resolution specifically asks the President, Congress, and EPA to relieve this financial burden on taxpayers and update the Clean Water Act to create fairer funding solutions. It does not create new law but seeks federal action on an unfunded mandate affecting over 1,000 local stormwater systems in Pennsylvania.
