Certified Storm Water Operator (CSWO) Services
At Clean Stormwater Inc., we provide Certified Storm Water Operators (CSWO) to ensure your facility fully complies with Michigan’s strict stormwater regulations. A CSWO is a Michigan-specific requirement mandated by the EGLE (Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy) for facilities covered under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Industrial Stormwater Permit.
What Your Assigned CSWO Does:
- Serves as your primary compliance contact for stormwater regulations
- Conducts required site inspections and compliance monitoring
- Oversees stormwater permit requirements and regulatory updates
- Maintains accurate records and documentation for inspections and audits
- Provides ongoing compliance support to keep your facility audit-ready
How a CSWO Benefits Facilities in Other States
While Michigan is one of the only states that requires a Certified Storm Water Operator, having a trained professional oversee your stormwater compliance provides significant benefits no matter where your facility is located. Many states have similar stormwater regulations under the federal NPDES program. Still, without a mandated CSWO, compliance can often fall to staff who may not be properly trained in stormwater management.
By working with Clean Stormwater Inc., you gain:
- Proactive compliance that helps prevent violations, inspections, and fines
- Regulatory expertise that applies Michigan-level compliance standards to your facility
- Audit readiness with a trained stormwater expert, ensuring full preparedness for inspections
Even in states that do not mandate a CSWO, partnering with an expert ensures your facility meets all NPDES requirements efficiently and effectively.
