**Fall Update Regarding Construction Stormwater and Reissued PAG-02 General Permits**

Current PAG-02 General Permits will expire on December 7, 2024. All existing permittees that received original PAG-02 approval from Pike County Conservation District and wish to remain covered under the 2024 PAG-02 must submit a Renewal Notice of Intent (NOI) to the District by December 7, 2024. Before completing this renewal, please read the letter here and confirm that your project remains eligible for coverage under a PAG-02. Any projects no longer eligible or that cannot comply with the updated PAG-02 terms and conditions must instead submit a complete Individual NPDES permit application to continue discharging stormwater. More information about this change can be found at DEP's website here.

FACT

We all live downstream. Our water quality is directly affected by our upstream neighbors, and our choices will impact the water quality for our downstream neighbors.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
  • Minimize impervious surfaces.
  • Do not remove trees and other plants next to streams, lakes and wetlands.
  • Plant native plants to absorb heavy rain falls.
  • Direct rain gutters onto lawn or garden.
  • Construct rain gardens and use rain barrels.
