It would not impact the stormwater credits, because those are about the built stormwater design rather than the construction process. For the prereq, you have to comply with the CGP, and while I haven't checked that in detail I would certainly guess that it covers dewatering in some way, at least in terms of how you deal with excavated soil.

Daniel (or Tristan),

Have you had a chance to review the CGP? Does it include stipulations about dewatering a site?

Is there a requirement and/or testing required for site water that is discovered during construction? How is this to be handled for the PR1 credit or does it only affect the Brownfield credit?

What if the sitewater is contaminated in some way?

Thank you.
