Description The Construction Stormwater General Permit (CSWGP) allows businesses to proceed with construction activity under a general permit rather than having to obtain a state or National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) individual permit. This publication provides the following:

  • A brief description of the compliance requirements of the general permit.

  • The estimated costs for complying with the permit, based on existing data for facilities intended to be covered under the general permit.

  • A comparison, to the greatest extent possible, of the cost of compliance for small businesses with the cost of compliance for the largest ten percent of the businesses intended to be covered under the general permit.

  • A summary of how the permit provides mitigation to reduce the effect on small businesses (if a disproportionate impact is expected), without compromising the mandated intent of the permit.
