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
larger common plan of development or sale must comply with the post-construction requirements detailed in the
applicable National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General permit for Stormwater Discharges
Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities issued by the State Water Resources Control Board or
the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board (for projects in the Lake Tahoe Hydrologic Unit).
The NPDES permits require postconstruction runoff (post-project hydrology) to match the preconstruction runoff
(pre-project hydrology) with the installation of postconstruction stormwater management measures. The NPDES
permits emphasize runoff reduction through on-site stormwater use, interception, evapotranspiration, and infiltration
through nonstructural controls, such as Low Impact Development (LID) practices, and conversation design measures.
Stormwater volume that cannot be addressed using nonstructural practices is required to be captured in structural
practices and be approved by the enforcing agency.
Refer to the current applicable permits on the State Water Resources Control Board website at:
www.waterboards.ca.gov/constructionstormwater. Consideration to the stormwater runoff management measures
should be given during the initial design process for appropriate integration into site development.

5.106.2 STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION FOR PROJECTS THAT DISTURB ONE OR MORE ACRES OF
LAND. Comply with all lawfully enacted stormwater discharge regulations for projects that (1) disturb one acre or
more of land, or (2) disturb less than one acre of land but are part of a larger common plan of development sale.
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
larger common plan of development or sale must comply with the post-construction requirements detailed in the
applicable National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General permit for Stormwater Discharges
Associated with Construction and Land Disturbance Activities issued by the State Water Resources Control Board or
the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board (for projects in the Lake Tahoe Hydrologic Unit).
The NPDES permits require postconstruction runoff (post-project hydrology) to match the preconstruction runoff
(pre-project hydrology) with the installation of postconstruction stormwater management measures. The NPDES
permits emphasize runoff reduction through on-site stormwater use, interception, evapotranspiration, and infiltration
through nonstructural controls, such as Low Impact Development (LID) practices, and conversation design measures.
Stormwater volume that cannot be addressed using nonstructural practices is required to be captured in structural
practices and be approved by the enforcing agency.
Refer to the current applicable permits on the State Water Resources Control Board website at:
www.waterboards.ca.gov/constructionstormwater. Consideration to the stormwater runoff management measures
should be given during the initial design process for appropriate integration into site development.
