About

Last checked: October 20, 2026 against the source documents. Based on: no regulatory claims on this page.

SWPPP HQ is a small, independent project based in Anderson, South Carolina. We summarize the state's construction stormwater permit and some local pond-maintenance rules in plain English, and point people to Clemson's public inspector lists. We are not affiliated with SCDES, Clemson University, or any county or city.

How we write

• We aim to cite a source for every factual claim, with the section and PDF page: the SCDES permit, SCDES web pages, state regulations, county documents, or Clemson lists. Where precision matters, we quote the source directly.
• We say when something is unclear or when official documents disagree.
• Each page shows the date it was last checked.
