The Comanche County Office of Floodplain Management exists to advocate the protection of the natural functions of the floodplain through education, training and service to Comanche County, and works directly with the Oklahoma Floodplain Manager’s Association.
​
Ultimately, the goal of this office is to protect lives and property loss from the result of floods. It is through education and the services the Floodplain Management office provides that this goal is hoped to be accomplished.

Comanche County Stormwater Management

Comanche County operates a Stormwater Management Program (SWMP) as a Small Phase II Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) under the authorization of the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).
Our program is designed to reduce pollution from stormwater runoff and protect the quality of our local waterways through public education, enforcement, and responsible development practices.
What We’re Required to Do
As part of our MS4 permit, Comanche County is responsible for meeting six minimum control measures:
-
Public Education and Outreach – Informing residents and businesses about the impacts of stormwater runoff and how they can help.
-
Public Involvement and Participation – Encouraging community participation in stormwater management efforts.
-
Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE) – Identifying and eliminating non-stormwater discharges into the stormwater system.
-
Construction Site Runoff Control – Ensuring construction activities reduce sediment and pollutant runoff.
-
Post-Construction Runoff Control – Promoting long-term practices that manage stormwater after construction is complete.
-
Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping – Reducing pollution from county operations through proper training and practices.
​
Why It Matters
Stormwater runoff can carry pollutants like oil, trash, sediment, and chemicals into creeks, rivers, and lakes—damaging water quality, threatening public health, and increasing flood risks.
