The Stormwater Program has separate Sections for Operational and Construction permitting. There are separate district contact maps for operational permitting and construction permitting.  Click the images below to view a map for each Section.

Note: the applicable map should always be used for an initial contact, however applications for projects located within a district area may be reviewed by others within the Section as needed depending on staff workload and/or availability.
