SWPPP Preparation and Review
Course Description
Preparing, reviewing and implementing a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is essential to stormwater management for both the public and private sectors. The SWPPP is a key component of the Construction General Permit, the Multi Sector General Permit, and of Minimum Control Measures 4, 5, and 6 of the MS4 General Permit. This class reviews all of the required elements of partial and full SWPPPs, including site planning, erosion and sedimentation, hydrology, good housekeeping, and post-construction management and maintenance. Updates to the Design Manual are incorporated in the review. Preparation of Municipal Facility SWPPPs, a new requirement of MCM 6 of the MS4 permit, are also covered.
