THE US EPAs PROPOSED NEW CONSTRUCTION GENERAL PERMIT is out and ready for public comment!

 

On April 25, 2011, the US EPA published in the Federal Register the following two notices affecting the Agency's CGP:

The proposed new CGP includes a number of modifications to the 2008 CGP, many of which are necessary to implement the new Effluent Limitations Guidelines and New Source Performance Standards for Construction and Development point sources, known as the "C&D rule." The C&D rule requires construction site operators to meet restrictions on erosion and sediment control, pollution prevention, and stabilization. The C&D rule also includes a numeric turbidity limit for certain larger construction sites, but effective January 4, 2011, EPA has stayed the numeric limitation of 280 NTU that was published in the December 1, 2009 rule. EPA will propose a revised limit in a future rulemaking.

The proposed new CGP will be finalized prior to the expiration of the 2008 CGP (which EPA has proposed extending to January 31, 2012) and will provide coverage for eligible new and existing construction projects for a period of five years.

For more information about the proposed CGP, see:

CORRECTION
Check Dams w ponding water
The Last April 2011 Newsletter featured an article entitled "THE PROCESS OF ESTIMATING EROSION & SEDIMENT CONTROL w CASE STUDY"
The article referrenced the "University of North Carolina", as having conducted the study, instead of the actual school that had conducted the study which was "North Carolina State University". 
Our apologies for the misleading referrence!
