This permit authorizes the City to discharge stormwater from the MS4, located within the City corporate limits, into the receiving waters of the State within the Neuse River Basin. This document is the Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP), as required by Part I.A of the City’s NPDES MS4 permit, which establishes the methods by which the City implements the permit requirements to achieve compliance and protect receiving stream water quality, to the extent allowable under State and local law.

This SWMP identifies the
