| − | ==Introduction==
| |
| − | Regulated MS4 permittees are required to develop a stormwater pollution prevention program (SWPPP) to reduce the pollutants entering the municipality's storm sewer system. When applying for the MS4 permit, permittees identified measurable goals they intended their SWPPP to reach. Based on these goals, permittees should evaluate the effectiveness of their program and make any necessary changes.
