In addition to
their activities regulated under the

the

Bureau of Nonpoint Pollution Control..
The Stormwater Discharger Permit Program requires construction activities
including clearing, grading and excavating that disturb one (1) acre or more
obtain authorization of a construction general permit (5G3). This permit must be
acquired in addition to a Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Plan certification
issued by the local Soil Conservation District.
Mining and Quarrying activities must obtain general permits directly through
NJDEP.
