Stormwater Inspections
Rhode Island's RIPDES Construction General Permit (RIR100000) is administered by the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management for construction activities disturbing one or more acres. The 2025 permit cycle features an expedited review process for smaller eligible projects. Rhode Island's coastal location and dense development patterns require careful stormwater management to protect Narragansett Bay and other sensitive waters.
