MS4 Permit

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued the City of Lewiston and Lewis Clark State College the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit which became effective on November 1, 2020 and expires at midnight on September 20, 2025. The final permit modification became effective August 1, 2021.

The MS4 permit requires permittees to develop and implement a comprehensive Stormwater Management Program which includes pollution prevention measures, treatment techniques, monitoring, and other appropriate measures to control the quality of discharge to storm drains which flow to waters of the United States.
