<br />5.106.2 STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION FOR PROJECTS THAT DISTURB ONE OR MORE ACRES OF
<br />LAND. Comply with all lawfully enacted stormwater discharge regulations for projects that (1) disturb one acre or
<br />more of land, or (2) disturb less than one acre of land but are part of a larger common plan of development sale.
<br />Note: Projects that (1) disturb one acre or more of land, or (2) disturb less than one acre of land but are part of the
<br />larger common plan of development or sale must comply with the post-construction requirements detailed in the
<br />applicable National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General permit for Stormwater Discharges
<br />Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities issued by the State Water Resources Control Board or

<br />The NPDES permits require postconstruction runoff (post-project hydrology) to match the preconstruction runoff
<br />(pre-project hydrology) with the installation of postconstruction stormwater management measures. The NPDES
<br />permits emphasize runoff reduction through on-site stormwater use, interception, evapotranspiration, and infiltration
<br />through nonstructural controls, such as Low Impact Development (LID) practices, and conversation design measures.
<br />Stormwater volume that cannot be addressed using nonstructural practices is required to be captured in structural
<br />practices and be approved by the enforcing agency.
<br />Refer to the current applicable permits on the State Water Resources Control Board website at:
<br />www.waterboards.ca.gov/constructionstormwater. Consideration to the stormwater runoff management measures
<br />should be given during the initial design process for appropriate integration into site development.
