Reducing Polluted Stormwater Runoff in Boston Rivers: “Residual Designation Authority,” Online, March 11, 11:45am - 1:15pm ET
Event Description
The U.S. EPA has proposed a new stormwater permit and is accepting public comments until March 17. This permit would apply to privately-owned industrial, commercial, and institutional properties in the Charles, Mystic, and Neponset River watersheds that have one or more acres of impervious surfaces such as parking lots and roofs. The purpose of this permit is to significantly reduce nutrient and bacterial pollution by, for the first time, requiring mitigation for existing properties.
During this EBC Membership Webinar, attendees will hear from watershed association representatives about why they believe this new permit is essential for cleaner rivers, and from industry experts about options for compliance, including both gray and green infrastructure solutions.
The webinar will conclude with audience Q & A with the program speakers.
