SWPPP Permits and Criteria

A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is Required for Construction Projects 

SWPPP plans assist Draper City, owners, developers, and contractors with implementing good housekeeping techniques and best management practices. It also ensures compliance with federal, state, and local code. 

SWPPP will help reduce waste from chemicals and materials used in construction that may wash into storm drains during rainy weather. It also takes soil into account that may erode from construction sites and contribute to environmental degradation.
