As the end of the year approaches, so does one of the most important compliance milestones for industrial and commercial facilities: the Annual Stormwater Compliance Inspection Report (ASCIR). While the official report isn’t due until January, your annual inspection must be completed before the end of Q4 — making now the time to act.
Why Timing Matters
Stormwater inspections are more than a box to check — they’re a key part of ensuring your facility remains compliant with state and federal stormwater regulations. Conducting your annual inspection before year-end allows your team to identify potential issues early, implement corrective actions, and avoid costly non-compliance penalties.
By staying proactive, you can:
- Address operational or maintenance concerns before submission deadlines
- Avoid last-minute rushes or incomplete data during report preparation
- Build a stronger record of environmental responsibility and regulatory trust
