    QSDs/QSPs and the 2022 CGP Transition

    8/13: Crossing the Threshold: QSPs and the 2022 CGP Transition 11:00 PM PT

    Melanie Sotelo, CPSWQ, CPESC, QSD/P, ToR | Director of Environmental Services | CASC Engineering and Consulting

    This 1-hour webinar is designed to provide Qualified SWPPP Practitioners (QSPs) with critical guidance on complying with California’s 2022 Construction General Permit (CGP), particularly as the September 1, 2025 transition deadline approaches. The construction and stormwater compliance industries are currently facing widespread uncertainty about what the end of the transition period means for projects still operating under the 2009 CGP. Many professionals are unclear about how and when to shift to the new permit, what documentation updates are required, and how to manage ongoing site responsibilities during and after the transition.

    This session addresses those concerns by offering a clear breakdown of the new CGP’s requirements, including updated Notice of Termination (NOT)procedures, long-term maintenance obligations, and the steps necessary to transition existing projects to the 2022 CGP. The webinar will also highlight key differences between the old and new permits, helping QSPs understand how these changes affect compliance strategies, reporting, and enforcement risk.
    By attending, participants will gain practical tools and regulatory insight to confidently manage stormwater compliance under the new CGP framework—ensuring they are prepared not only for current expectations but also for the full implementation of the updated permit after the transition period ends.
