What is a SWPPP?
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, also known as a SWPPP, SWP3, or SW3P, is a site-specific document that details the characteristics of a site, the scope of the project, and the measures that will be implemented to contain on-site pollutants and prevent them from being carried off-site in the form of runoff during storms.

SWPPP requirements in San Antonio
Our SWPPP services are designed to ensure compliance with the City of San Antonio ordinance regarding stormwater compliance for construction activities. Enforcement of the City’s ordinance is delegated to the San Antonio Water System (SAWS) who operates the municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) program with the City. A copy of the City’s ordinance can be found at SAWS.org or municode.com.

The City of San Antonio requires that all Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) be prepared by a Professional Engineer or a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC).
