What is a SWPPP?

A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is a manual that outlines how a construction project will minimize storm water pollution. Construction sites are a well-known source of sediment and other pollutants which can cause significant harm to rivers, lakes, coastal waters, and flood control facilities. The SWPPP describes the permit holder's activity to prevent pollution for the specific project.  

When we create a SWPPP for you, our plans will:

• Identify all potential sources of pollution from your site

• Define best management practices (BMP) to reduce and mitigate those pollutants in storm water discharges, and

• Include an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan

• Risk Calculations for the Risk Level for your project

• Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDLs) research for receiving waters

• Active/Passive Treatment Systems

• Dewatering Operations

You may need a more extensive plan depending on the risk level of your project, as defined by the criteria in the CGP Order No. 2009-0009 DWQ and the New CGP Order No. 2022-057 DWQ. But no matter your risk level, MVM can create the right plan for you, tailored to the specific characteristics of your site and property.
