PROJECTS OVER ONE ACRE

Projects that will generate earth disturbance of one (1)  acre or greater are required by State and Federal Law to complete and obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit, as well as an Erosion & Sedimentation Control Plan approval from the BCCD.

Other permits may be required depending on the type and scope of project that you are planning. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the BCCD office and request a Pre-Application meeting with the Environmental Protection Specialist assigned to the municipality where your project is located.

Below are links to the required documents and tools that are commonly used to complete the required information for an NPDES permit application. For more guidance, please download the information found on our NPDES Guidance page.

Please call the office at 215-345-7577 if you have any questions.
