    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted a request to renew the 2022 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Construction General Permit (CGP) for stormwater discharges from construction activities. This renewal request, which is part of the Paperwork Reduction Act process, is necessary as the current permit is set to expire on February 28, 2025. The public can comment on this proposal until March 31, 2025. The renewal will affect approximately 3,631 operators per year and involves changes like new questions and requirements for notices and inspections, contributing to an increased estimated cost of over $15 million per year.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA is asking for approval to continue a system that helps limit water pollution from construction sites. They want to add new rules that will take more time and money for people who build things, which could make the total cost go up.
