Stormwater Management - Multi-Sector General Permit: Inspections and Recordkeeping

Industrial stormwater comes from rainfall or snowmelt runoff that contacts industrial materials. It then runs offsite and enters drainage systems or receiving waters. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires industrial facilities to have a Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) to discharge stormwater. Federal regulations require stormwater discharges associated with specific categories of industrial activity to be covered under NPDES permits. Its main goal is to make sure you manage stormwater in a way that limits pollutants.

This training is designed to help Stormwater team members meet the requirements for inspections and monitoring under Parts 3 and 4 of the MSGP regulations. It will also teach them how to do the required reports and documentation per Part 7 of the permit's requirements.

NOTE: This training is offered as a part of a more comprehensive curriculum on this topic. See the description for the Stormwater Management Training - Multi-Sector General Permit Curriculum for additional information.

After completing this training, learners will be able to:

• Identify who is qualified to perform facility inspections
