Nebraska SWPPP
Made Easy

Nebraska SWPPP

For general contractors, commercial developers, and industrial operators in Nebraska, staying compliant with environmental regulations—especially those related to stormwater—is a critical part of any construction project. At the center of these requirements is the Nebraska Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), a required element of the construction permitting process under the Nebraska Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and Construction Stormwater Permit.

A Nebraska SWPPP is a site-specific plan that outlines how your construction site will manage stormwater runoff and prevent pollutants from entering nearby water bodies. It includes detailed site maps, identification of pollutant sources, and implementation of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to control erosion, sedimentation, and other contaminants during land-disturbing activities.

Any project disturbing one acre or more—or part of a larger phased development—must obtain coverage under Nebraska’s Construction Stormwater General Permit, administered by the Nebraska Department of Water, Energy, and Environment (DWEE) [formerly the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy (NDEE)]. This process requires submitting a Notice of Intent (NOI) through the NDWEE online portal and ensuring a compliant SWPPP is in place before construction begins.

Navigating Nebraska’s stormwater permitting process can be time-consuming and complex. Eco Permit Pros streamlines compliance by preparing NDEE-approved SWPPP documents, filing NOIs, and conducting regular site inspections to help your project stay on schedule. We support contractors across Nebraska—from Omaha and Lincoln to Grand Island and Kearney—ensuring your site meets all regulatory requirements.

Failure to comply with Nebraska’s stormwater rules can result in fines, project delays, and reputational setbacks. Eco Permit Pros offers a complete compliance solution: customized SWPPP preparation, permit filings, inspection services, and expert consulting for builders and developers.

Whether you're developing a residential community in Bellevue or managing infrastructure upgrades in North Platte, a well-executed Nebraska SWPPP is more than a regulatory formality—it’s a proactive step toward protecting your project and the environment. Trust Eco Permit Pros to keep your Nebraska site compliant from groundbreaking to final stabilization.

SWPPP Services in Nebraska

For contractors and developers working across Nebraska, understanding and complying with stormwater regulations is essential. One of the primary requirements for construction projects that disturb one acre or more of land is the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan—commonly referred to as a Nebraska SWPPP.


Still asking, “What is a SWPPP?” A SWPPP (Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan) is a site-specific document that outlines how your construction site will manage stormwater runoff and minimize pollution. It identifies potential sources of pollutants, defines erosion and sediment control strategies, and establishes inspection and maintenance procedures to ensure compliance with the Nebraska Department of Water, Energy, and Environment (DWEE) and EPA guidelines.
