Stormwater Permitting Course
Stormwater is a leading source of water pollution and consequently, EPA has set effluent standards under the national pollution discharge elimination system (NPDES). Stormwater discharges from solid waste facilities must be permitted because their operations are subject to the discharge requirements for industrial facilities. They must also comply with construction site requirements during facility development.
