Across multiple contracts, Surf to Snow has served as subconsultant and prime consultant providing environmental services and GIS services to ensure NPDES compliance for stormwater on construction projects conducted by our client. S2S’ support is led by Qualified Stormwater Developers (QSDs) responsible for developing and implementing Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) and Best Management Practice (BMP) implementation, maintenance and inspections. S2S’ support also includes providing emergency response and post-wildfire emergency restoration and compliance services.

The QSD reviews construction drawings and KMZ files to determine soil disturbance area calculations and any water quality related concerns. The QSD gathers the most current construction drawings, schedules a site walk with the client, collects critical field data, drafts a SWPPP for senior technical review, submits for client review and approval, and uploads the documents to the Stormwater Multiple Application Report and Tracking System (SMARTS). Documentation includes development of GIS SWPPP Water Pollution Control Drawing (WPCD) packages, submittals into regulatory tracking systems, as well as communication and coordination throughout construction and project closure. The Surf to Snow QSD works closely with our client’s Environmental Field Specialist (EFS)on project descriptions and scope of work to determine whether stormwater support is required to ensure compliance. S2S’ stormwater and BMP project work experience is throughout all of California’s Regional Water Quality Control Board Regions 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6.
