Vermont S0303 amends stormwater discharge permit requirements for properties with three or more acres of impervious surface.

Vermont S0303 amends the administration of the three-acre stormwater discharge permit. The bill requires the Agency of Natural Resources (ANR) to verify each parcel identified by geographic information system data as subject to the permit, ensuring that the parcel has three or more acres of impervious surface. ANR must rank each parcel according to the severity of its impact on water quality. The bill repeals the current permitting rule and general permit, replacing it with a new schedule for implementation.
