A number of new handouts have been recently added to our Development Resources website under the header titled "HANDOUTS FOR PROPERTY OWNERS". These include:
The Watershed Protection Program offers educational handouts and training videos as a resource on how to implement Best Management Practices (BMPs) for various pollutant generating activities. Educational handouts cover applicable BMPs for the following categories:
- Residential
- Industrial & Commercial
- Structural BMPs
- Watershed Specific Info

You can also find Watershed specific information for your area. Do you know what watershed you live in? Actions you take everyday can help improve water quality within your community and your watershed. This helps keeps our rivers, streams, and oceans healthy and clean.

Approval Exception
The use of the Prior Lawful Approval exception (also known as grandfathering) of stormwater development planning requirements under the 2007 Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit will be ending on February 16, 2021. Previously excepted PDP Projects may include multi-phased project with future grading permits or those that constructed on-lot Structural BMPs that will come back for a building permit. Under these scenarios, no additional permits (Grading, Building, etc.) will be issued under the 2007 MS4 Permit after February 16, 2021 and those projects will be required to comply with the BMP Design Manual.
