This webinar will cover the new Commercial Industrial and Institutional (CII) NPDES Permit in two watersheds in the Los Angeles area. This permit, currently in Draft form, is intended to manage stormwater discharges from previously uncovered facilities that may contribute pollutants to federally protected surface waters, or require treatment controls based on numeric effluent limits (NELs).
During this session, we will cover:
- The scope and requirements of the Draft CII NPDES Permit.
- Identification of discharges that fall under this permit.
- Compliance strategies for affected entities.
- The impact of these regulations on previously uncovered parcels
Any commercial, industrial, or institutional site with five-acres or more in impervious cover (including roofs) will be required to seek coverage under the CII Permit. Some examples include shopping centers, office complexes, car dealerships, warehouses, parking lots, private schools, and churches. This webinar is essential for professionals in the commercial, industrial, and institutional sectors who need to understand their responsibilities and ensure compliance with the latest environmental regulations.
