The EPA and TCEQ require most industrial sites, construction projects, and many oil and gas facilities to develop and maintain a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. The SWPPP identifies the potential sources of stormwater contamination at your facility, describes the Best Management Practices in place to prevent pollutants from reaching stormwater runoff, and establishes the inspection, sampling, and recordkeeping procedures your team must follow to demonstrate compliance.

A SWPPP is not a document you create once and file away. It is a living plan that must reflect current site conditions, be updated whenever operations or site layout change, and be supported by documented inspections, training, and sampling. Regulatory agencies evaluate SWPPPs not just on whether the plan exists, but on whether it is being actively implemented and maintained. A well written plan that sits in a binder collecting dust will not protect you during an inspection.

Sport Environmental provides the full scope of SWPPP services that oil and gas operators and industrial facilities need. We develop plans tailored to your specific site conditions, manage the permit authorization process, conduct the routine inspections and sampling the plan requires, train your personnel on their responsibilities, and update the plan as your facility evolves. Our goal is to make stormwater compliance a managed program, not a recurring source of uncertainty.

Plans Built for Oilfield Facilities

Stormwater compliance at an oil and gas facility differs from that at a warehouse or construction site. The pollutant sources, site layouts, and regulatory expectations differ. We write SWPPPs for tank batteries, production facilities, compressor stations, gathering system sites, and processing plants because that is the industry we work in. Our plans address the specific contaminant risks and operational realities of these facilities from the start.

Ongoing Management, Not Just a Document

Many operators have a SWPPP sitting in a binder that was written years ago and has not been updated since. That plan will not hold up during an inspection. We manage SWPPPs as living compliance programs with scheduled inspections, documented training, sampling when required, and regular updates to keep the plan aligned with current conditions. The document is the foundation, but the program is what keeps you compliant.

Inspection Ready Records

When an inspector asks to see your SWPPP, they are not just looking at the plan itself. They want to see inspection reports, training records, sampling results, corrective action documentation, and evidence that the plan is being actively implemented. We maintain all of these records in an organized, accessible format so your facility is prepared for an inspection at any time.

Multi-Facility Program Management

Operators with stormwater obligations across multiple facilities need a systematic approach to managing inspections, sampling schedules, and plan updates. We manage SWPPP compliance at scale, tracking every facility’s permit status, inspection calendar, and plan currency so nothing falls through the cracks as your portfolio grows or changes.

Connected to Your Broader Compliance Program

Stormwater compliance intersects with SPCC plans, water management, remediation, and site reclamation. Because Sport Environmental manages all of these services, your SWPPP program is coordinated with your broader environmental compliance efforts. When a facility change triggers an SPCC update, we also review the SWPPP. When a remediation project alters site drainage, we amend the stormwater plan accordingly.
