An Act amending the act of June 22, 1937 (P.L.1987, No.394), known as The Clean Streams Law, in other pollutions and potential pollution, further providing for potential pollution.

Summary

The bill amends Pennsylvania’s Clean Streams Law to let construction projects that disturb more than one but less than five acres apply for a waiver of the state NPDES storm‑water permit. The Department of Environmental Protection must grant the waiver when the site meets the conditions set out in 40 CFR 122.26(b)(15)(i). This change streamlines permitting for modest‑size sites while still referencing federal standards.
