FUND PURPOSE AND GOALS
The Environmental Protection Fund is used to ensure that the City is in compliance, or developing means to
achieve compliance, with its Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) Stormwater permits, as well
as other state and federal environmental regulations. The Fund supports the following sections: Compliance,
Administration, Stormwater Monitoring, Stormwater Inspection, Air Quality and Public Education.

The Compliance Section performs the tasks required to keep city facilities and operations in compliance with state
and federal environmental regulations. The Regulatory and Administrative Section is responsible for the
interpretation of all federal and state environmental regulations, and administrative and fiscal support.
Stormwater Inspection performs review of construction and industrial permit applications, plans, and sites. The
Stormwater Monitoring Section performs citywide sample collection and analysis regarding the quality of
stormwater and responds to spills that could adversely affect the stormwater system.

The Environmental Management Division Air Quality program is responsible for tracking, monitoring and
enforcing the City’s Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit. Inspectors work with the regulated
community including the City and its’ contractors on permit compliance requirements. Notices of Violation along
with citations are issued by the Environmental Services – Stormwater staff.

The Education Section is responsible for public education on stormwater pollution prevention, air quality issues
and household hazardous waste disposal methods.

The Environmental Collection Center (ECC), which collects and disposes household hazardous waste for City of
Fort Worth Residents as well as 52 plus participating entities, moved to the Solid Waste Fund in FY2018.
