Abstract	Caltrans has a comprehensive program for preventing water pollution during construction activities on the state highway system. Caltrans has developed a number of resources to assist Caltrans staff and construction contractors achieve this goal. Caltrans water pollution control manuals provide direction on how to prepare a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and Water Pollution Control Program (WPCP). Caltrans has also developed and obtained the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) approval of numerous Best Management Practices (BMP) for preventing water pollution. The Caltrans Division of Construction has gathered these materials and linked them from this page to assist the visitor. The page also has related links, including to the Storm Water Quality Handbook - Project Planning and Design Guide under the Division of Design and the Storm Water Program under the Division of Environmental Analysis.
