URGENT NOTICE: CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS


Office

All active construction projects operating under the 2009 Construction General Permit (CGP) must transition to coverage under the 2022 CGP by September 1, 2025.  Projects not transitioned by this date will be automatically terminated and must reapply to resume construction. 

Projects that do not have a new WDID number by September 1, 2025, must STOP all construction activities until a new WDID number is issued. Act now to avoid project delays.


How this Might Apply to Your Project

If your construction project has been using a 2009 WDID number and the project will not be complete (i.e., a Notice of Termination has not been filed) by August 31, 2025 the Legally Responsible Party (LRP) must do the following to stay in compliance:

  • Apply for coverage under the 2022 CGP via the Stormwater Multiple Application and Report Tracking System (SMARTS): The LRP must electronically submit Permit Registration Documents (PRDs) via SMARTS. PRDs consist of the NOI, Risk Assessment, Post-Construction Calculations, a Site Map, the SWPPP, a signed certification statement by the LRP, and the first annual fee
  • Pay the application fee.
  • Instructions on applying for a CGP can be found HERE

How this Could Affect Your Project

Visit Stormwater Multiple Application and Report Tracking System (SMARTS) to begin your re-enrollment process. Step-by-step help guides are available here.
