Abstract
The Water Quality Control Division (the Division) in the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment is tasked with administering water quality control programs to protect waters of the state. The Division provides education, compliance assistance, permits, inspections and enforcement to promote prevention, control and abatement of water pollution. Per HB121119, the Division has been meeting since June (a total of 10 meetings) with stakeholders in the construction industry and other interested parties to develop a more responsive, streamlined process to improve compliance, reduce violations and provide timely enforcement. This report includes the results of this collaborative effort, including actions to develop more streamlined and responsive processes and recommendations for moving forward.

Abstract
Storm water runoff is water from rain or snowmelt that does not immediately infiltrate into the ground, and instead flows through natural or man-made conveyance or storage systems. Stormwater runoff volume is greater in areas with high proportions of impervious surfaces (e.g., paved roads, buildings, parking lots, etc.). Runoff from areas where industrial activities are conducted can contain pollutants when facility practices allow exposure of industrial materials or activities to stormwater. To regulate the amount of pollutants entering Colorado Waters, the Colorado Water Quality Control Act mandates that certain types of industrial activities that discharge stormwater to state waters must obtain coverage under a Colorado Discharge Permit System (CDPS) permit issued by the Colorado Water Quality Control Division.
