Stormwater Solutions for Public Works Departments & Municipal Agencies

Washington Stormwater helps cities, counties, utility districts, and public agencies manage stormwater treatment, permitting, erosion control, and compliance documentation for public works projects across Washington.

How does construction affect the water pollution

Stormwater Compliance Support for Public Infrastructure Projects

Public infrastructure projects in Washington face strict stormwater requirements from early earthwork through final closeout. Road rebuilds, culvert replacements, utility upgrades, drainage improvements, and public facility projects all require coordinated planning to manage runoff, groundwater, sediment, discharge, and documentation.

Washington Stormwater helps public agencies reduce compliance risk and project strain by managing the stormwater systems, permits, erosion controls, dewatering support, and reporting needed to keep infrastructure work moving.

We Support the Full Range of Public Infrastructure Projects

Public works construction disturbs soil, encounters groundwater, and generates stormwater discharge that must be managed and documented from the first day of earthwork through final closeout. Washington Stormwater provides the treatment systems, permits, CESCL oversight, and compliance management your project requires so your team can focus on delivering infrastructure.

We work on:

  • Road reconstruction and widening projects
  • Utility installation and replacement corridors
  • Bridge and culvert replacement projects
  • Below-grade excavation and foundation work
  • Drainage improvement and conveyance projects
  • Public facility construction and site development

Stormwater Treatment & Dewatering

Public works construction generates two distinct water challenges: rainfall runoff that picks up sediment and pollutants as it flows across disturbed ground, and groundwater that must be pumped out before below-grade work can continue. 

Washington Stormwater deploys and operates dewatering and stormwater treatment systems for municipal projects, ensuring compliant discharge through every project phase and weather event. Our operators remain on-site throughout the project, managing systems around the clock and responding to storm events without waiting for a call from the project owner.

Permitting, Compliance & Reporting

Washington Stormwater provides stormwater permitting support and manages your Construction Stormwater General Permit application from start to finish. This includes the Notice of Intent, SWPPP, public notification, and Ecology coordination, with documentation completed within three days of engagement. 

We also prepare and file your Discharge Monitoring Reports through Washington's WAWebDMR system, conduct environmental compliance assessments, and maintain the inspection records and project documentation your agency needs to stay audit-ready throughout the project.

Erosion, Sediment Control & Emergency Response

Washington State requires a Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Lead on permitted construction sites. Washington Stormwater's CESCL-certified team provides erosion and sediment control support for public works projects, including site assessment, BMP recommendations, and ongoing inspections for the full project duration. 

When conditions change or weather creates unexpected risk, we respond immediately, stabilizing operations and restoring compliant discharge before a regulatory consequence occurs. Learn more about our Erosion and Sediment Control Services.
