Stormwater Software

Discover the Key Benefits of Stormwater Software

Save Time & Simplify Inspections - Quickly generate SWPPP inspection forms, reports, and inventories, and use built-in mapping to identify storm drains, catch basins, and pollutant sources.

Enhance Compliance - Centralized records make it easy to demonstrate compliance with EPA, state, and local stormwater regulations, ensuring audit readiness.

Increase Productivity - Automate routine compliance tasks, streamline workflows, and access real-time data to improve efficiency and oversight.

Reduce Risk & Strengthen Accountability - Prevent off-site releases by ensuring timely completion of inspections, preventive actions, and corrective measures.

Efficient Data Management - Easily manage large volumes of stormwater-related data, including permits, inspection records, sampling results, and corrective actions, all from one secure, centralized platform.

Improve Communication & Collaboration - Seamlessly share reports, data, and documents across teams, contractors, and regulatory agencies, ensuring transparency and alignment.

Streamline Reporting - Automate the creation of stormwater compliance reports, reducing errors and simplifying submissions to regulatory agencies.

Real-Time Monitoring - Track water quality, water levels, rainfall, and other key parameters for proactive stormwater management and rapid response.

Breeze Through Audits - Generate comprehensive, audit-ready reports that clearly demonstrate compliance with stormwater permit requirements.

Deploy Rapidly - Customize your cloud-based stormwater management system and import existing data within hours - not weeks or months.

Save Money - Affordable, scalable, and built for efficiency - contact us to learn more.

Stormwater Management Software Features

Data Consolidation - Store data associated with your stormwater program in one centralized and cloud-based location:

• Outfall locations and receiving waters
• Pollutant source characteristics and locations
• Best management practices
• Catch basins
• Supporting documentation such as monitoring results, customized inspection forms and DMR's

Runoff Monitoring - Track and analyze stormwater runoff, input data from monitoring stations and sensors, manage sampling schedules, and generate reports on water quality.

Simplified Inspections - Stormwater inspection forms may be efficiently completed using our Mobile EHS App. GPS coordinates, as well as barcodes or QR codes, may be used to easily identify pollutant sources, best management practices, catch basins, and storm drains.

Action Item Tracking - Action items associated with risks detected during inspections are automatically assigned to area owners and tracked to completion.

Efficient Stormwater Plan Development and Maintenance - Quickly generate Stormwater Management Plan appendices, such as pollutant source and outfall lists, with the click of a button.

Reporting and Documentation - Generate comprehensive reports, including compliance reports, water quality monitoring reports, inspection reports, and documentation of BMP maintenance activities.

Centralized Document Storage - Upload and quickly access stormwater-related documents such as Notices of Intent, Notices of Termination, Regulatory Inspections, Inspection and Visual Assessment Reports, Analytical Results, and Discharge Monitoring Reports.

Compliance Reporting - Generate comprehensive reports, including compliance reports, water quality monitoring reports, inspection reports, and documentation of BMP maintenance activities.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stormwater Software

What Is a Stormwater Outfall?

In general, an outfall is the point where stormwater discharges to waters of the United States or a municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4). If the actual receiving water body is not adjacent to the site, the facility's outfall is considered to be the location where the discharges leave the industrial site.

How Can Software Help?

Stormwater Software simplifies the regulatory compliance requirements associated with developing and maintaining Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP)and associated requirements such as completion of inspections and Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMR).

Do I Need a Stormwater Permit?

Under EPA regulations, you will typically need a stormwater permit if your facility:

• Falls under one of 11 different categories of industrial activity, and
• Has stormwater runoff that discharges to a surface water (or to a storm sewer that flows to a surface water).

Note that many states have their own stormwater regulations. Click here for list of those States.

My Site Rarely Discharges. Do I Still Need a Stormwater Permit?

Per EPA, even if a discharge to waters of the U.S. occurs only rarely, as with a 100-year storm event, permit coverage for that discharge is required.

When Do Construction Activities Require a Stormwater Permit?

Discharges from construction activities that disturb one or more acres and discharges from smaller sites that are part of a larger common plan of development or sale require a construction stormwater permit. Check out EPA's "Do I Need a Permit" flow chart.

Do Oil and Gas Activities Require Stormwater Permits?

Many states, such as Colorado, require oil and gas pads to obtain stormwater permit coverage during construction as well as perform certain post-construction activities until the site is fully reclaimed.

Under federal/EPA regulations, permitting of certain oil and gas activities is not required unless the site has had a discharge of a "reportable quantity" or violated/exceeded a water quality standard. See EPA's website for further information.

Do Stormwater Discharges to Groundwater Require a Permit?

Not under EPA regulations, but some States (such as Washington) and Tribes do require permit coverage for stormwater discharges to groundwater (e.g., infiltration).
