View the Attendee List

The Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (CT DEEP) has issued new requirements for the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) program which will become effective on July 1, 2017.  All communities affected by these regulations must submit a new registration and Stormwater Management Plan to the CTDEEP no later than April 1, 2017.

This EBC Connecticut Chapter program on Connecticut’s Updated MS4 Program will provide a walk-through of the new permit registration process, an update on the permit requirements with a specific focus on the Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE) portion of the new general permit, suggested steps to develop a legal entity for regulation enforcement, and some general guidelines to help communities meet permit requirements once the registration and Stormwater Management Plan development have been completed.

General Continuing Education Certificates are awarded by the EBC for this program (3.5 training contact hours). Please select this option during registration if you wish to receive a certificate.
