The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) renews the Stormwater Multi-Sector General Permit (TXR05) every five years. On August 14, 2021 the current permit will expire and the new permit will go into effect.
Once the new permit goes into effect, existing permit holders will need to file a Notice of Intent (NOI). There is a 90-day grace period allowed by TCEQ after the permit renewal date to complete this.
In addition to filing a NOI, the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP, SWP3) will need to be updated to meet the requirements of the new permit.
Peace Environmental is ready to assist you with filing an NOI and update your SWPPP, sitemaps, and outfalls, as needed.
Below is a summary of updates coming to the TXR05 permit.
