A brief description of the institution's stormwater management initiatives:

UALR holds an individual, non-point source MS4 permit (ARR040020) granted by ADEQ that allows us to responsibly discharge runoff into storm sewers that empty into Coleman Creek and subsequently other waterways downstream. It is UALR’s responsibility to ensure that activities on campus are managed in such a way as to prevent harmful runoff.

The UALR Environmental Health and Safety Office (EHS) adopted policy and procedure to directly control construction activities on campus that may result in stormwater discharge pollution. These control measures, known as Best Management Practices (BMPs), include prevention measures that are carefully planned to eliminate sediment and/or chemical runoff from construction sites.
