The goal of the pollution prevention and reduction Program is to prevent or minimize polluting discharges to Austin's creeks and lakes through the Spills and Complaints Response and Stormwater Discharge Permit programs.
Program staff responds to hazardous and non-hazardous material spills as well as citizen pollution complaints within the Austin City limits, the five mile extra-territorial jurisdiction, and within the City’s water supply watersheds. Program investigators respond 24 hours a day, seven days a week to calls received through the Pollution Hotline.
