Abstract:
Pennsylvania municipalities with NPDES MS4 permits or waivers, have been identified by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection.  Attribute data indicates whether the municipality holds a general or individual NPDES MS4 permit (PAG-13), or whether the municipality qualified for a waiver from the permitting requirement.
Purpose:
In order for other people and organizations to use the NPDES MS4 municipal permitting information in a geographic information system (GIS) or for other geographic applications, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection releases to the public extracts of certain data from its NPDES permit records.
