Understanding the Essentials of Stormwater Plans

This first video takes you through the basics of stormwater plans under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits. These plans, including Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs), and others such as Drainage Control Plans (DCPs), or Preparedness, Prevention, and Contingency Plans (PPCs), are vital tools for maintaining compliance and protecting our water bodies from industrial pollutants. They cater to a range of industries, highlighting the importance of customized solutions in preventing pollution and preserving water quality.
