A storm drain, also known as a storm sewer or surface water drain, is a structural system designed to collect and manage excess rainwater or surface runoff. It helps to prevent flooding and erosion by directing water away from streets, parking lots, and other built-up areas to a designated drainage system, such as a nearby stream, river, or retention pond.
