A Storm Water
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is basically an erosion,
sediment and waste chemical control plan. It is up to the
permit holder to decide what types of Best Management Practices
(BMPs) to use at a given site, but the
company/municipality/contractor must comply with the permit
requirement.
SWPPPs will
typically include:
-
Site Description
with a map
-
A description of
the sediment, erosion and polluted water controls used
on-site, including stabilization and structural practices
(such as seeding, catch basin inserts like the Ultra-DrainGuard
or Ultra-GrateGuard)
-
Descriptions of
the BMPs to control stormwater runoff after completion of a
construction activity or as a part of a long term maintenance
plan.

Permit holders are
required to develop, implement and enforce a stormwater
management program to:
-
Reduce the
discharge of pollutants to the maximum extent practicable (MEP).
-
Protect water
quality.
-
Satisfy the
appropriate water quality requirements of the Clean Water Act.
-
Submit a Notice of
Intent (NOI) which includes BMPs to be used, measurable goals,
