    Description
    Job Description


    The NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) enriches the environment and protects public health for all New Yorkers by providing 1.1 billion gallons of high-quality drinking water, managing wastewater and stormwater, and reducing air, noise, and hazardous materials pollution.

    DEP is the largest combined municipal water and wastewater utility in the country, with nearly 6,000 employees.

    DEP's water supply system is comprised of 19 reservoirs and 3 controlled lakes throughout the system's 2,000 square mile watershed that extends 125 miles north and west of the city.


    The Bureau of Environmental Planning and Analysis (BEPA) is responsible for the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) planning and implementation for the city including permitting and enforcement for the construction/post construction program.

    The Stormwater Permitting Section is responsible for implementing 15 RCNY Chapter 19.1 and the construction /post-construction requirements of the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System permit issued to the City by NYS Department of Environmental Conservation.


    Professional engineers, registered landscape architects and other professionals that have knowledge in design and implementation of designs for the prevention of pollution related to stormwater runoff prepare and submit stormwater pollution prevention plans.

    Under the updated MS4 Permit, the City has reduced the soil disturbance threshold of projects requiring review and approval in the MS4 areas to 20,000 square feet.

    In addition, the City will enforce the same rules in the combined sewer service area in an effort to reduce the occurrence of combined sewer overflows.

    That addition with the MS4 area reduction is expected to increase the number of applications.

    Under direction, the Assistant Environmental Engineer will be responsible for reviewing, approving, and disapproving Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs).

    Adequately reviewing plans requires a working knowledge of hydrology, hydraulics, soils and practices designed to prevent pollution of stormwater runoff.

    Additional critical tasks include responding to complaints related to stormwater discharges from construction sites, inspecting sites both during and after construction for compliance with stormwater construction and stormwater maintenance permits.

    The ideal candidate will have experience in civil site design and review including grading, drainage and site layout.

    Understanding concepts related to design and construction of stormwater management practices as well as a familiarity with the New York State General Permit for Stormwater Discharges from Construction Sites and the New York City Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit are preferred.

    Typical tasks will include.

    Review of site civil drawings for compliance with City rules and the Construction General Permit.

    Clear understanding of stormwater management systems during and after construction. Understands hydrology, hydraulics and implementation of codes.

    Site inspection for compliance with approved plans during construction, under Stormwater Construction Permit.

    Site inspection for compliance with post construction requirements of a Stormwater Maintenance Permit.

    Must be able to communicate orally and in writing giving applicants and permittees clear understanding of program and permit requirements, penalties for noncompliance and the intrinsic benefits

    of compliance.


    At the time of appointment to certain positions, candidates may be required to possess a Motor Vehicle Driver License valid in the State of New York.

    If required, employees must maintain this license for the duration of employment.
