Louisiana Construction
Stormwater Inspections
Louisiana's Large Construction General Permit LAR100000 is administered by LDEQ for construction activities disturbing five or more acres, while LAR200000 covers sites of 1-5 acres. Louisiana's unique challenges include high water tables, frequent hurricanes, and extensive wetland areas that require specialized BMPs. The state's coastal and floodplain environments demand heightened attention to sediment and erosion control.
