Coastal Stormwater Center of the Southeast

Led by the Center for Watershed Protection, the Coastal Stormwater Center of the Southeast is one of four new Centers of Excellence for Stormwater Control Infrastructure Technologies established to advance critical stormwater solutions across the country. Our core partners include Auburn University Marine Extension, Clemson University, East Carolina University, North Carolina Coastal Federation, University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Georgia Marine Extension and Sea Grant, and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University.  

The Coastal Stormwater Center of the Southeast plays an important role in improving stormwater infrastructure by conducting research ; providing technical assistance  to state, tribal and local governments in coastal Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, and Alabama; and collaborating with partners through the coastal southeast region to deliver research and assistance to communities.

Research and other resources developed by the Coastal Stormwater Center and the other Stormwater Centers of Excellence will be housed on the National Stormwater Manager’s Clearinghouse   (COMING SOON).

The Center for Watershed Protection received financial support for the Coastal Stormwater Center of the Southeast under an Assistance Agreement from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
