Which of the following describes what must be included in the General Information in SWPPP?

• A. The general information includes weather data and daily logs
• B. The general information includes signed registration statement, notice of coverage letter, Construction GP, project description, and site plan
• C. The general information includes only the site plan
• D. The general information includes payroll records and insurance certificates

Answer: (B)

General Information in a SWPPP collects the administrative and regulatory identifiers for the project: who is responsible, under which permit, and a snapshot of the project's scope and layout. The items that belong here are the signed registration statement, the notice of coverage letter, the Construction General Permit, a description of the project, and the site plan. These elements establish the regulatory basis and give a concise overview of what is being built and where. Weather data and daily logs relate to monitoring and field records, not the administrative basis of the project, while payroll records and insurance certificates are not part of the SWPPP’s General Information.
