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. WAC 173-226-120 Economic Impact Analysis requires the Department of Ecology (Ecology) to prepare an economic analysis for the CSWGP. As a general permit technically expires after five years (though entities remain covered by it until a new permit is issued), Ecology analyzes a new permit compared to a baseline of no permit and zero compliance costs. This is also consistent with the intent of the rule to address relative compliance burden. |
