Demystifying the MS4 Permit

New Hampshire’s new federal MS4 permit, intended to address and reduce stormwater pollution at the local level, was released on January 2017 and goes into effect July 2018. While seemingly daunting, many municipalities are already well on their way toward compliance with their existing stormwater programs.

Join Rockingham Planning Commission Senior Planner Julie LaBranche, NHDES Watershed Outreach Coordinator Barbara McMillan, and Nashua Regional Planning Commission Interim Executive Director Jen Czysz as they provide a comprehensive overview of the new permit, walk through some easy first steps toward compliance, provide examples of how other cities/towns and institutions are approaching the permit requirements, and share available resources.
