Polluted stormwater runoff is the number one water pollutant. As stormwater moves across developed areas, it picks up garbage, debris, sediment, chemicals, automotive fluids, fertilizers, leaves and other pollutants from parking lots, yards, streets, roofs and other hard surfaces.
Never dump anything down a storm drain. Always recycle used oil, antifreeze and other fluids. Fix oil leaks in your vehicles. Wash your car at a commercial car wash rather than in the street or in your driveway.
One of the most common mistakes operators make is using a generic SWPPP template without tailoring it to the specific site conditions and state requirements. Every construction site has unique topography, soil composition, and water drainage patterns that must be accounted for in the plan.
The SWPPP should include a detailed description, with timelines, of all controls, applicable BMPs, and mitigation measures that will be implemented at the construction site for each construction phase identified as major soil disturbing activities.
It scours streambeds and stream banks, causing additional erosion. Excess nutrients in runoff, especially nitrogen and phosphorus, cause waterbody-impairing algal blooms. As algae die and decompose, oxygen levels decrease, harming or killing fish, plants and other aquatic organisms.

One way is to increase water infiltration. This can be accomplished by replacing pavement and concrete with more permeable pavement materials such as pavers (stones) with pore holes in them. Also planting trees and building buildings up (taller) and not out taking up more area on a streetblock will reduce urban runoff.
Reduce rooftop runoff by directing your downspouts to vegetated areas, and not to the storm drain on your street. For your driveway and patios, consider putting in permeable paving or patterns of cement and brick that allow water to filter through it. Support your local storm or surface water program.
A SWPPP is more than just a sediment and erosion control plan. It describes all the construction site operators activities to prevent stormwater contamination, control. sedimentation and erosion, and comply with the requirements of the Clean Water Act.
