Welcome to South Burlington Stormwater Services

Protecting Lake Champlain by protecting the water ways the feed it. — The City of South Burlington is working to reduce the negative impacts of stormwater runoff and improve water quality in local streams and Lake Champlain.

Welcome! We are Vermont’s first stormwater utility. We complete the ongoing maintenance work necessary to keep the City’s stormwater drainage and treatment system working properly. The Utility also provides technical support for property owners and constructs stormwater capital improvement projects.

The Utility manages stormwater in a cost-effective way for all city property owners. Please explore the rest of our site to learn more about the Utility, its benefits, and how stormwater affects South Burlington.
