SWPPPs, WPCPs, WPCDs & Erosivity Waivers

• Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) are required for projects 1 acre or larger. During this process we will complete the risk level assessment and generate all necessary documentation and plans for submittal to the State Water Resources Control Board.  This process is typically a 7 to 10 business day turn around.
• Water Pollution Control Plans (WPCP) are often required by cities that are more stringent with the their storm water requirements. These plans are a shortened version of the full SWPPP Book when the project does not require state approval due to size or scope of work.
• Water Pollution Control Drawings (WPCD) are a simple design of a SWPPP plan to show what needs to be implemented on the site as Best Management Practices (BMP).
• In some cases we can assist you with obtaining an Erosivity Waiver if the project is smaller than 5 acres and meets certain criteria during the risk level assessment process.
