Curriculum: Industrial Stormwater Management (When Construction Ends)

With an increase in enforcement by regulatory agencies as well as the implementation of Phase 2 MS4's nationwide, the next big wave to affect stormwater management will be incorporating industrial stormwater management practices under the Multi-Sector General Permit (aka Industrial Stormwater Permit). This webinar is an introduction to what the MSGP is and how earning your designation as a Qualified Industrial Stormwater Manager can prepare you for an important role in this budding market segment.

Learning Objectives

Summarize the evolution of U.S. stormwater regulations: including key provisions of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, Clean Water Act, and stormwater quality amendments.
Identify the scope and structure of the MSGP: recognize when a site needs general versus individual permit coverage, and explain permit term and renewal.
Outline the essential elements of a SWPPP: with emphasis on maintaining an accurate site map, marking pollutant sources, control measures, and outfalls.
Conduct fundamental stormwater site inspections: including outfall monitoring, BMP evaluation, and non-stormwater discharge checks.
Describe sampling and monitoring requirements: distinguishing between indicator and benchmark parameters and their required frequencies.
Apply best practices in recordkeeping: detailing retention periods, required documents (inspections, lab reports, NOIs, amendments), and post-termination obligations.
