Wastewater / Storm Water Discharges
"Veazie has developed a good five year plan to
comply with the State’s MS4 General Permit and has an excellent
agent, CES, that fully understands Maine’s MS4 stormwater program.
Working together with your other MS4 partners, your consultant and
the DEP, I am confident that Veazie will easily reach full permit
compliance during this five year permit cycle."
- David Ladd, Stormwater Coordinator, State of Maine DEP
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. We would be pleased
to assist you with your wastewater and storm water needs. Our
Civil Engineering department offers various other
Storm Water related services that may
be of interest to you. For
