What is a SWPPP?
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, also known as a SWPPP, SWP3, or SW3P, is a site-specific document that identifies:
- – The scope of the project.
- – The operator(s) who are responsible for implementing the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
- – Potential sources of stormwater pollution at the construction site.
- – 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.
How to obtain permit coverage
The TCEQ Construction General Permit TXR150000 allows developers and general contractors to discharge stormwater into state waterways and storm sewer systems, provided they comply with the terms of the permit. The first requirement is to develop a SWPPP. The second requirement is to obtain permit coverage. There are two paths to obtaining coverage under the TCEQ CGP:
| Option 1 | Option 2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Projects disturbing 1 to 4.9 acres are classifed as small sites | Projects disturbing 5 acres or more are classified as large sites | |
| Requirements | Requirements | |
| 1. Develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan | 1. Develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan | |
| 2. Submit your Small Construction Site Notice to the local regulatory authority at least 48 hours before starting construction activities | 2. Submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) in STEERS, pay the $225 application fee, and submit your NOI to the local regulatory authority at least 48 hours before starting construction activities |
Sites disturbing under five acres receive automatic authorization by developing a SWPPP and posting a construction site notice near the entrance to the site. Sites disturbing over five acres, or those that are part of a Larger Common Plan of Development disturbing five or more acres, must submit a Notice of Intent to TCEQ.

It can include one operator or many operators.
Example: A subdivision is being developed. You are building homes on 2 acres, another company is clearing 3 acres in the next phase, and a contractor is excavating another 0.5 acres for a pond. In this case, the total area that would be disturbed is 5.5 acres. As a result, each operator would be subject to the requirements associated with disturbing 5 or more acres.
“Construction” refers to actions that result in a disturbance of the land, including clearing, grading, excavating, and other similar activities.
It also includes “construction-related activities,” areas that support the construction project such as stockpiles, borrow areas, concrete truck washouts, fueling areas, material storage areas and equipment storage areas. Construction activities that do not disturb land, such as interior remodeling, generally do not require NPDES permit coverage.
A State of Texas Environmental Electronic Reporting System (STEERS) account is required to access the ePermitting system that TCEQ uses to collect reports and permit applications. If you need a STEERS account, please see our 10 Steps to Create a STEERS Account guide.
