Registration is now open for an AGC Federal Stormwater Update webinar on Dec. 15, 2014, from 2:00pm-3:30pm. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets construction site stormwater requirements for the entire country. Hear straight from agency staff what contractors need to do to stay in compliance and what you can expect down the road. Get the latest on the rules, tools, and technologies headed to your state. We will also discuss what industry experts are seeing “in-the-field” as well as the dos and don’ts to meeting stormwater permit requirements. Click here to register now.
Be Informed
Don’t get washed away by stormwater initiatives originating at the federal level. U.S. EPA representatives will discuss key changes to stormwater permitting and electronic reporting requirements—including a proposed rule that would require the electronic sharing of key permit- and enforcement-related information with the public.
The U.S. EPA also is looking to control stormwater flow from developed sites—through low impact development and green infrastructure strategies. State and municipal permits are already starting to include many of these requirements.
Get Prepared
Stormwater experts and practitioners will share lessons from recent enforcement actions and offer best practices—including online and mobile technologies—to help you meet the next generation of stormwater challenges. They will also introduce opportunities for construction firms willing to dive into green infrastructure work.
You don’t want to miss this important update on new stormwater developments and what the future looks like for stormwater regulations and policies around the country. Click here to register now.
