Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP)

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP)

If a SWPPP is required for a site, our design professionals will prepare an Erosion and Sediment Control Plan as well as a SWPPP report in accordance with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) requirements. For sites that require the preparation of a SWPPP that includes post-construction stormwater management practices, North Star Engineering will perform water quality and quantity calculations to ensure that post-development runoff flow rates will not exceed pre-development runoff flow rates for the 10-year and 100-year storm events. Our staff are certified to perform SWPPP inspections throughout the duration of site activities.

Reduced Pressure Zone Designs

Water Service & RPZ Designs

North Star Engineering is experienced in the design of Reduced Pressure Zone (RPZ) devices for new or existing water service connections. The RPZ is a backflow prevention device that prevents contamination of the public water supply.

What is an I/A OWTS?

Innovative and Alternative Onsite Wastewater Treatment Systems are advanced septic tanks that are designed to reduce nitrogen levels in the wastewater before it discharges to the leaching structures and reaches the surrounding groundwater. Conventional sanitary systems do not have specific nitrogen-reducing components. The I/A OWTS helps protect groundwater and surrounding waterbodies from excess nitrogen contamination. Excess nitrogen contributes to harmful algal blooms and fish kills in our local waters. North Star Engineering has experience with various I/A OWTS manufacturers on Long Island including Fuji Clean, Hydro-Action, Norweco, Orenco, and SeptiTech. North Star Engineering can help you assess whether an I/A OWTS design is required for your project.
