Stormwater Runoff

Stormwater runoff as well as water-flow problems in general plague the Township.

Please remember that management of stormwater runoff is permitted and encouraged; however, it needs to be effected a certain way.

Natural methods of stormwater runoff management are encouraged; and much information exists regarding these methods and their application. Prior to initiation of any drainage, pipe placement or water diversion projects you must notify the Township with a plan and proposal including a site plan (detailed drawing) of the proposed project prior to the start of work.

Please contact the Township Office Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m. for consultation and the Lehigh County Conservation District is also available for advice and information (610) 391-9583.

Always remember to call first!

Upper Milford Township is a community of great scenic and rural character, near the southern corner of Lehigh County, south of Emmaus.
