Date: 14th July, 2026

Level: Advanced

Duration: 1 hour

Type of Course: Webinar – On Demand 

Data centers and the talk around them are everywhere and they are beginning to reshape how agencies view water use, stormwater risk, and construction oversight. Many in the erosion and sediment control field are feeling these changes on project sites. Unfortunately, many also lack clear guidance on what the shifting regulatory landscape means for SWPPP development and compliance. This presentation fills that gap by outlining the emerging trends, explaining why expectations are evolving, and providing practical steps that contractors, inspectors, and MS4s can use to stay aligned with new requirements. 

Data center growth is accelerating across the country and prompting agencies to reexamine how stormwater, water use and construction activities are regulated. As expectations evolve, construction teams are seeing new requirements for SWPPP planning, BMP selection, inspections, and documentation. This webinar provides a practical overview of the regulatory themes shaping these changes and what they mean for everyday erosion and sediment control work. Attendees will learn how to anticipate shifting compliance expectations and strengthen coordination with owners, regulators and MS4s. The session emphasizes proactive planning and field-ready strategies that help teams adapt confidently in a changing regulatory landscape.
