Getting Started With North Carolina NPDES Stormwater Permitting - No Exposure Certifications | Resource Management Associates

Getting Started with North Carolina's NPDES No Exposure Certifications

NPDES is a part of the Clean Water Act. Compliance is important to ensure that your facility is protected in the event an inspection takes place. If you are found to be out of compliance your facility could face financial repercussions.

The expected time table for this service can vary on a few factors such as your location and industry. Since these permit requirements are dependent on state regulations, some facilities can expect a project timeline of a few weeks, while others may expect a timeline of a few months.

No matter where you're starting from, we can help. If you have existing permits, our team can help you get into compliance and provide you with training and some best management practices to set your company up for success. For those in need of a permit, we are able to help you obtain your permit and develop your manual (also known as a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan).
