Guidance for
Construction Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
The above
template (205 KB) may be used as a general guide for
development of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
associated with construction activities. This template may
not contain all applicable requirements for all construction
sites. Please refer to the Department’s Generic Permit for
Stormwater Discharge from Large and Small Construction
Activities, DEP Document 62-621.300(4)(a) to verify that you
are meeting all permit requirements. Part V of the above
referenced generic permit specifically lists requirements of
the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
The SWPPP
shall be completed prior to the submittal of the Notice of
Intent (NOI) to be covered under the Department’s Generic
Permit for Stormwater Discharge from Large and Small
Construction Activities.
The SWPPP
shall be amended whenever there is a change in design,
construction, operation, or maintenance, which has a
significant effect on the potential for discharge of
pollutants to surface waters of the state or a Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4). The SWPPP also shall be
amended if it proves to be ineffective in significantly
reducing pollutants from sources identified in Part V.D.1.
of the permit. The SWPPP also shall be amended to indicate
any new contractor and/or subcontractor that will implement
any measure of the SWPPP. All amendments shall be signed,
dated, and kept as attachments to the original SWPPP.
