  Just be sure to power wash your boat before you launch it.   :doah:

I used to work for a city that had similar issues as mound.  During a heavy rain we would go from 100,000 gal. to well over 1,000,000 gal. per day and the only reason it wasn't higher is because that's all the water the pumps could move.  The biggest issue was sump pumps that are illegally pumping clean water into floor drains instead of onto the front lawn.  There are also pipes that are hooked up to storm system. 

Anything that is free is worth saving up for.
