Title: ●Comprehensive NPDES Stormwater Phase II Regulations 
Abstract: EPA will be proposing changes to the stormwater regulations for Phase II dischargers. Phase II dischargers generally include all point source discharges of stormwater from commercial, retail, and institutional facilities and from municipal separate storm sewer systems serving populations of less than 100,000. Data collected under section 305(b) of the CWA indicates that benefits will be derived from addressing these discharges under the Phase II program. Urban stormwater runoff is a real cause of water quality use impairment. EPA has invited its stakeholders to participate in the development of the Comprehensive Phase II rule under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). This FACA group will assist in the development of the rule. Currently all Phase II dischargers are required to have stormwater permits by 2001. EPA will be considering limiting the universe of Phase II sources and may recommend control options that are less burdensome than permits.
