PA Stormwater Expert: USA Environmental Solutions Announces That Expert
Consultation May Be Necessary to Comply with a NPDES Stormwater Permit under The
Clean Water Act or PA Law

CONSHOHOCKEN – February 11, 2026/Newsfile/ –USA Environmental Solutions (“USA
Enviro”) announces that stormwater enforcement actions are increasing across Pennsylvania,
which seek to hold businesses liable with industrial operations exposed to stormwater. A
consultation with a stormwater expert allows Pennsylvania businesses to stay compliant with
stormwater permitting requirements by reviewing and updating their Preparedness, Prevention,
and Contingency Plans (“PPCs”) and/or Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (“SWPPPs”),
implementing necessary best management practices (“BMPs”), and performing the required
sampling/testing.

Notice of Violations (“NOVs”) have been sent to businesses in the Eastern District of
Pennsylvania alleging that these industrial facilities failed to comply with National Pollutant
Discharge permit requirements. The NOVs allege that businesses failed to implement BMPs
and to conduct required stormwater sampling. The NOVs further alleges the businesses are
responsible for injunctive relief and the potential payment of civil penalties of up to $68,445 per
violation per day.

USA Enviro is emphasizing, preferably before or after receiving an NOV, the importance of swift
corrective measures, proper implementation of stormwater BMPs, and accurate sampling and
monitoring to restore compliance and prevent or reduce the risk of escalating penalties.

USA Enviro is a premier environmental and compliance consulting firm. It specializes in
protecting both businesses and the environment through expert stormwater compliance
services. If you would like more information about the NOV or want information about
