Vermont Construction Stormwater Inspections

Vermont's Construction General Permit 3-9020 is administered by the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation for construction activities disturbing one or more acres. The permit integrates with Vermont's comprehensive stormwater management rules emphasizing Low Impact Development approaches. Vermont's mountainous terrain, sensitive cold-water streams, and Lake Champlain phosphorus reduction goals create stringent compliance requirements.
