Overview of NPDES Permit Writers Management Tools

OVERVIEW

EPA's Water Permits Division has developed several tools that will help States and Regions manage the quality and consistency of individual NPDES permits. EPA encourages States and EPA Regions to tailor these tools in ways that best meet their NPDES permitting program needs. The materials include:

• Central Tenets [PDF Format] - A summary of the of the NPDES program intended to provide permit writers with a summary of core permitting principles: including, permit administration, technology-based effluent limits, water quality-based effluent limits, monitoring and reporting conditions, special conditions, and standard conditions.
• NPDES Permit Quality Review Checklist - For POTWs [PDF Format] - A four-page checklist that can be used by permit writers to assess the completeness of NPDES permit applications for POTWs.
• NPDES Permit Quality Review Checklist - For Non-Municipals [PDF Format] - A four-page checklist that can be used by permit writers to assess the completeness of NPDES permit applications for non-municipal facilities.
