Sanitary sewer overflows reported to the Department of Environmental Protection by the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission or individuals in the County. Update Frequency - Daily

Records of reported illegal dumping activity with locations and dates of the incident.

This dataset contains leaf collection dates for area and subarea where leaf collection service is provided by Montgomery County Department of Transportation. Update Frequency - Daily (September through December). Monthly update (January through August) on the first day of each month.

The Water Quality Protection Charge (WQPC) is a line item on your property tax bill.
WQPC funds many of the County's clean water initiatives including:

• Restoration of eroded stream banks
• Upgrades to stormwater ponds
• Storm drain cleaning and maintenance
• Stream monitoring
• Litter control programs
• Stormwater facility maintenance
• Installation of rain barrels, rain gardens and green roofs
The WQPC is calculated based on how much of your property is impervious (does not allow rain to be absorbed into the ground). As the county is developed, more area is covered in impervious concrete, asphalt, driveways, and buildings. Instead, that stormwater collects pollutants and runs off of the impervious surfaces causing damage to streams, rivers and the Chesapeake Bay. This is also known as stormwater pollution.
The clean water initiatives funded by the WQPC remediate the environmental damage caused by stormwater pollution. Further, the WQPC funds programs that are needed to meet the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit from the state of Maryland.

This dataset contains data that are used to track conditions in our streams. A portion of this data is used to meet MS4 permit requirements. Update Frequency : Daily

This Map View contains 3 separate map layers and the fly out details are embedded in only one map layer. If you don’t see the fly out details after clicking on the Map View, click on the ‘Water Quality Stream Map’ in the pop- up box to display the fly out details.

This dataset contains information about types and location of rainscapes installed.

Listed commercial buildings, both public and private, participating in the County’s benchmarking program. The dataset shows building energy metrics for County-owned and operated and privately held facilities reporting data under the County's Building Energy Benchmarking Law. This dataset is updated annually. Learn more about the program and reporting requirements on DEP’s website: https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/green/energy/benchmarking.html.

The monthly Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission data represents Montgomery County Facilities and Fleet by month beginning July 2019.
Facilities: The Facilities GHG data represents physical structures used by County residents and County staff who provide services for County residents. Examples include recreation, libraries, theater and arts, health and human services, liquor retail, courthouses, general services, maintenance facilities, correctional facilities, police stations, fire stations, volunteer fire stations, garages, parking lots, bus shelters and park & ride locations. Facilities use the following fuel sources: grid electricity, natural gas, propane and diesel fuel.
Facilities GHG data DOES NOT include Montgomery County Public Schools, Montgomery College and Montgomery Parks Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC).
Fleet: The Fleet GHG data represents Montgomery County vehicles used by County staff who provide services for County residents. Examples include mass transit buses, snowplows, liquor trucks, light duty trucks, police cars, fire engines and fire service equipment, etc. Each County vehicle use different fuel sources (i.e. diesel, mobil diesel, compressed natural gas, unleaded and E-85).
Fleet GHG data DOES NOT include Montgomery County Public School buses, Montgomery College and Montgomery Parks Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission (M-NCPPC) vehicles.
GHG Calculation Method: Facilities and Fleet fuel sources are converted into one common unit of energy- 1 Million British thermal units (MMBtu) which are then used with emissions factors and 100-year global warming potential (GWP) to calculate GHG emissions into one common unit of measure- Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent (MTCO2e).
