The South Dakota Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources (SDDANR) is proposing to reissue the following Surface Water Discharge (SWD) general permit:

GENERAL PERMIT: General Permit for Stormwater Discharges Associated with Construction activities

PERMIT NUMBER: SDR100000

FACILITY LOCATION: Statewide

This general permit is for discharges of stormwater from new or ongoing construction sites that are greater or equal to one (1) acre, individual construction sites that are part of a common plan of development or sale that will ultimately disturb one (1) or more acres of land, constructions sites less than one (1) acre that the Secretary has designated as needing a permit, and from certain construction support activities.

Discharges covered by this general permit could enter many waterbodies statewide. All waterbodies in South Dakota have been assigned one or more of the following beneficial uses:

(1) Domestic water supply waters;

(2) Coldwater permanent fish life propagation waters;

(3) Coldwater marginal fish life propagation waters;

(4) Warmwater permanent fish life propagation waters;

(5) Warmwater semipermanent fish life propagation waters;

(9) Fish and wildlife propagation, recreation, and stock watering waters;

(10) Irrigation waters; and

Tentative determinations regarding the antidegradation review and the water quality limits for any discharge and other conditions have been made by DANR. The proposed general permit was developed to ensure these beneficial uses are maintained and protected. The proposed general permit and supporting documentation are available from DANR at the address listed below or on DANR’s website at: https://danr.sd.gov/public/default.aspx.
