Developing Your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan: A Guide for Construction Sites

This guide outlines the regulatory framework and procedural requirements for preparing a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for construction activities, detailing site assessment methods, erosion and sediment controls, runoff-management practices, inspection routines, and documentation standards required under federal and state permitting programs. It provides contractors and exam candidates with factual, compliance-oriented direction for implementing stormwater controls that meet construction-site environmental obligations.

This document provides guidance to construction site operators that need to prepare a SWPPP in order to receive NPDES permit coverage for their stormwater discharges.

It is used as a reference for the NASCLA Accredited Examination for Commercial General Building Contractors.
