What document must be submitted for an industrial storm water permit coverage?

The correct answer is the Notice of Intent (NOI), which is a crucial document required for obtaining industrial storm water permit coverage. The NOI serves as a formal notification to the regulatory agency that the facility intends to discharge storm water associated with industrial activity under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program.

Submitting an NOI is a critical step in the permitting process because it allows regulatory authorities to assess the potential environmental impacts of the facility's storm water discharges. By filing the NOI, operators indicate their commitment to comply with the necessary regulations and best management practices designed to mitigate pollution and protect water quality.

On the other hand, while the Storm Water Report, Environmental Compliance Plan, and Pollution Prevention Plan are important components of an overall compliance strategy, they do not specifically fulfill the requirement for initial permitting under industrial storm water regulations. The NOI is the primary document that triggers the permit process and establishes the operator's coverage under the industrial storm water discharge general permit.
