Summary

On July 10, 2017, Region 10 filed a consent agreement and final order resolving violations of the Clean Water Act by LocalConstruct Advisors, LLC, The Sherman Hollow Project, LLC, and Knife River Corporation - Northwest. Respondents, which conducted construction activities under the Construction General Permit in Boise, Idaho, discharged construction stormwater to waters of the U.S. and failed to install or implement adequate best management practices. Turbid stormwater discharges from construction sites further impair the water quality of the Boise River, affecting beneficial uses including supporting cold water aquatic life, salmonid spawning, and primary and secondary contact recreation. The environmental benefits of this enforcement action are the prevention of further water degradation, protecting Idaho's natural resources, and promoting implementation of best management practices for construction. The company agreed to pay a penalty of $20,500.
