What is Construction Stormwater Permit Coverage?
If your construction project cumulatively disturbs one or more acres of land through clearing, grading, excavating, or stockpiling of fill material, you may need construction Stormwater Permit Coverage from the Washington State Department of Ecology (DOE). This applies even if the project is being constructed in phases of less than one acre. Spokane County cannot determine whether Permit Coverage is necessary. It is your responsibility to apply for coverage. For detailed information visit http://www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/stormwater/construction/ or call 360-407-6437.
