Permits

Permits for Municipalities

Permits for municipalities are tailored for that particular urban area while following a standard template meant to insure that all municipal permits address common concerns. For the time being, smaller and more rural municipalities are allowed to operate without gaining permit coverage.

Permits for Construction Sites

Statewide, all construction sites having an acre or more of disturbance are required to gain coverage under one General Construction Permit, which is based on the commonalities that construction projects share. The site conditions and information specific to each project are addressed in a document called a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).
