Relation to CDPS Stormwater Requirements
The Erosion and Stormwater Quality Control Plan has been structured to meet the requirements of the CDPS Stormwater Construction Permit, in addition to City requirements. It is anticipated that a single plan could meet both State and City requirements. However, City requirements for the Erosion and Stormwater Quality Control Plan are more inclusive than State requirements for a Stormwater Construction Permit. In addition, the developer should note that compliance with one program does not fill the need to comply with the other. Currently, a CDPS permit is required whenever the site disturbance exceeds 1 acre.
