Description

Throughout the Commonwealth, engineers and developers are facing the same challenge; balancing project development needs while meeting the stormwater management requirements. Over the past few decades, stormwater management requirements have become more complex as flooding, drought, and extreme weather frequency have become more apparent. Understanding the impact of Stormwater Management practices on the development process is critical; the impact of permitting timelines, criteria, and legal paperwork can be just as important to the success of any land development project.

This presentation will cover the basics of stormwater management permitting; changes to the NPDES permitting process; legal aspects and documentation needed for developers during design, construction, and property settlement; compliance trends for common developer situations during permit close-out; and some lessons learned over the years.

Learning Objectives

  1. Review the basics of stormwater management regulations in Pennsylvania.
  2. Learn about the NPDES permitting process and the timelines associated with the process.
  3. Understand the legal aspects and awareness of critical requirements after the permit has been approved.
  4. Identify compliance trends and solutions and provide solutions for meeting these regulations.
