SWPPP Development in Santa Fe — FAQ

Does my Santa Fe, NM construction project need a SWPPP?

Yes if it disturbs 1 acre or more — or is part of a larger common plan of development or sale that totals 1 acre or more. Those projects need a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and coverage under EPA Construction General Permit NMR100000, with the Notice of Intent filed before ground disturbance begins.

Who prepares and certifies the SWPPP?

New Mexico does not license SWPPP preparers, but the plan should be prepared by a qualified professional. Inspections Plus staff hold QISM, CPESC, and CESSWI certifications with Licensed PE Partners, and have delivered thousands of SWPPPs since 2005.
