FAQs about SSp1 :

Is there a preferred method for documentation?

What suffices as far as a date-stamped photo?

Can I still earn the prerequisite if the project started considering LEED after work began?

Am I exempt from this prerequisite if I have a zero-lot-line building? What if the site work is minimal due to the scope? What about a renovation? What if the excavation and foundation work is minimal due to the construction materials I am using?

What are BMPs for steep slopes?

I have a technical question about a specific control measure and whether LEED requires it. What guidance is available?

NC-2009 SSp1:Construction Activity Pollution Prevention

Narrative explaining compliance of ESC plan with NPDES guideline

Hi, We are currently in Construction review for a MFHR project based in Philadelphia, PA. As per the requirements of SSP1, we had submitted a narrative explaining the ESC measures implemented on site and provided documentation providing compliance. During the review, we were requested to provide a narrative describing how the ESC measures were more stringent than the requirements of Phase I and Phase II of NPDES guidelines. Now my question is, will a narrative stating that the ESC plan has been prepared according to Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection Agency which oversees the NPDES program be sufficient? Or do we need to provide a comparative analysis between the two? Can someone please guide me on this? Thanks Madhura Dhayagude

in theory, if you have an NPDES permit you should be good. But the DEP only reviews your PCSM plan, correct? They don't actually review your E&S in Philly, do they? I think that is what your reviewer is asking.
