ENV Conference September 14, 2017
TxDOT Statewide Permit
Statewide Permit = MS4 regulated area, not all roads in the state
Streamlined 34 permits into 1 statewide permit
Simplifies reporting (1 report per year vs. 34)
Standardizes statewide SWMP specific to TxDOT operations
Focuses where TxDOT has authority and influence
– No ordinance development capability
– Limited legal authority, only within ROW
4
ENV Conference September 14, 2017
How is Statewide Permit different?
Modeled after Phase II Permit
– Includes requirements from Phase I permits
– Anti-backsliding
– Includes new Phase II areas from 2010 census
Focus on programmatic enhancements for IDDE
Facility inspections
Mapping permanent controls
Enhanced TMDL requirements
Enhanced training requirements
5
ENV Conference September 14, 2017
Highlighting what we have we learned
3rd Party outfalls
– Coordinating with adjacent MS4s is key
Investigating and monitoring 3rd party outfalls will provide greater water
quality improvements and measures of SWMP effectiveness
20 years of Phase I characterization monitoring has met the objective

ENV Conference September 14, 2017
First Annual Report
Permit requirement language:
– “The first annual report must include interim months between last
reporting periods of expired permits to the permit effective date of this
permit.”
– “The permittee shall submit a concise statewide annual report…”
If you have already reported the activity on an annual report, there is no
need to report it again.
There is no need for a narrative report. Just the facts/data
Will be an attachment to the Statewide Annual Report
