Hi Todd,

The MS4 permit only requires inspection of SCMs that are permitted by the City.

Jeanette,

Wilmington has a question about the private SCM inspection requirements under their MS4 permit.

Currently there are some wet ponds (and some swales in low density subdivisions) in Wilmington
that were permitted by the State only and not the City. Wilmington has the understanding that they
are not required to inspect these, and that it is the state’s responsibility. They further understand
that they are required to inspect city-permitted ponds and city+state permitted ponds.

Can you confirm that this is a correct understanding?

Cheers,
Todd
