Complying with the New EPA Multi Sector General Industrial Stormwater Permit

Webinar Summary
Sponsored by Stanley Consultants

Industrial facility operators face stricter storm water regulations with the final U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) 2021 Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP). The best operators will save money and time by attending to simple housekeeping, regular testing and mediation steps, but even the best owners may find themselves with standard exceedances.

If pollutant storm water sources have been identified and best practices and source reduction are not enough, what can a facility do to avoid millions of dollars of investment with a conventional treatment system? Whether it is suspended solids, granulated dust from a stack, cooling tower chemicals from downdrafts, rats living in a sewer, nitrates or other fertilizer runoff, many facilities will be challenged to comply. When the federal standards are inevitably adapted by state and local governments, and the data comes in high, operators face expensive engineered solutions.
