What type of information must be in the narrative description included in the SWPPP?

The narrative description included in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) must provide a comprehensive overview of the nature and function of the construction project. This includes details such as the purpose of the project, the type of construction activities involved, the location, and the expected timeline. By clearly articulating these elements, the SWPPP can effectively address how the project might impact local water resources and outline the measures needed to prevent stormwater pollution. Understanding the scope and scale of the project is essential for developing appropriate control measures and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.

While considerations like financial implications, past project failures, and potential risks may be relevant for project planning and management, they do not form the core requirement of the narrative description in the SWPPP, which focuses explicitly on the project details necessary for effective stormwater management.
