SW Management Program Permit Application (SWU-101)

Main application form for State Stormwater permits and Phase II permits that will be reviewed by the State.  If you are submitting an application to a local government, contact them to obtain the correct form.

Who do I submit the permit application to? Click here for an interactive map.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR UNION AND MECKLENBURG COUNTY PROJECTS: New development activities in the Goose Creek, Waxhaw Creek, and Sixmile Creek watersheds may be subject to more stringent design requirements as a result of an Administrative Law Judge ruling and EMC decisions relating to the protection of the Carolina Heelsplitter. Please contact the SPU for more information before applying for a Post-Construction Permit in these areas. Refer to this map of these watersheds.
