CES, Inc. provides permitting, design, construction monitoring, environmental monitoring, and overall compliance assistance to clients who have wastewater and storm water discharges. The wastewater discharges may be a result of process, agricultural, industrial or domestic wastes. The storm water discharges may be a result of new development, municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s), construction, or industrial activities.
The Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) has been permitting wastewater discharges under the State's Waste Discharge License (WDL) program and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been the permitting authority for storm water discharges using the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). However, recently DEP received delegated authority for storm water discharges. Now, wastewater and storm water discharges are regulated under the Maine Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (MEPDES). During this transition, CES, Inc. has participated in the advisory committee and stakeholder group meetings to help form the general permits and stay abreast of the changes.
CES, Inc. is currently providing compliance assistance to 7 out of the 10 regulated MS4s in the greater Bangor area, numerous clients that discharge storm water from industrial activities, new development and construction activities, and several facilities that have waste water discharges.
