Determination of appropriate stormwater discharge monitoring points is a fundamental component of an effective process for managing stormwater and temporary erosion and sediment control in compliance with project-issued Section 402 Construction Stormwater General Permit Conditions. Permit wording can be general and challenging to interpret.

The Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) administers Federal and state regulations requiring construction site operators to manage their stormwater and to obtain a Construction Stormwater General Permit (CSWGP) on sites one acre and larger. The permit requires the construction site operator, to designate a CESCL certified individual to conduct stormwater discharge monitoring and reporting. The purpose of these requirements is to reduce and prevent soil, dirt, and other common construction pollutants from washing off the site and reaching streams, rivers, and other local water bodies. In this presentation we will review the process for identifying appropriate construction site stormwater discharge monitoring points necessary to maintain compliance with requirements set forth in the SWPPP and CSWGP.

Learning Outcomes:

• Identification Stormwater Discharge Points
• Modification of Discharge Monitoring Points as construction progresses
• Discharge Point Field Identification and SWPPP Documentation Requirements
