Rule 5 (327 IAC 15-5) – As of 12-18-2021 this program is no longer administered through 327 IAC 15-5 and has been replaced with the new Construction Stormwater General Permit (CSGP). The rule is intended to protect Indiana’s rivers, lakes, and wetlands from sediment and other pollutants that could run off of construction sites during rain events.

SWPPP Guidance – lists all requirements for the SWPPP, all these items must be adequately addressed for plan approval. The SWP3 must be developed in accordance with the CSGP, and where applicable, the requirements of a local Municipal Separate Storm Sewer (MS4) ordinance.

Notice of Intent (NOI) – The transition to the Construction Stormwater General Permit (CSGP) was effective December 18th, 2021. With the new CSGP, all submittals for notices of intent are to be submitted electronically through the ePortal. New guidance, can help you on how to use it here.

This is submitted to IDEM after the SWPPP has been approved by the SWCD. It should be accompanied by a copy of the plan approval; the $100 IDEM filing fee; and proof of publication in a local newspaper.

Notice of Termination (NOT) – is sent to the SWCD when all construction is finished, the site is stabilized, and all temporary practices have been removed. The SWCD will conduct a final site inspection and either approve or deny the Notice of Termination (NOT). If approved, the SWCD will send the NOT to IDEM. If denied, the SWCD will inform the site owner of what is needed for the NOT to be approved. The site owner is responsible for following the SWPPP and keeping the clearance renewed until the NOT is approved.
