The Hoboken Proposed Stormwater Management Plan HIA was intended to inform the City’s stormwater management planning process as well as the decision-making of the Hoboken City Council as it considers a comprehensive stormwater management ordinance. The HIA considers the possible health effects of flooding and potential exposure to polluted stormwater from combined sewer system back-ups and overflows; disruptions in local, emergency, and business services due to flooding; and changes in water and air quality, as well as effects on ground permeability and heating related to green infrastructure solutions.
