Resources for You

Check out Cardinal’s resources to make the SWPPP process as easy as possible.

Are you ready to kick off your new stormwater compliance project with Cardinal Strategies? The first step is to fill out the Project Information Form (PIF).

Note: A full set of civil plans must be uploaded and submitted with this form.

It is important to complete as much of this form as possible including project details, customer and accounting information, and more. Keep in mind, Cardinal also requires a full set of civil plans with your PIF in order to get your project underway.

Contact your Cardinal representative with questions. If you do not have a representative, please email envsales@cardinalstrategies.com.

In order to file an NOI for your large construction site, you'll need to create a State of Texas Environmental Electronic Reporting System (STEERS) account and ER number with the Texas Commission of Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The ER number is your STEERS account number that allows Cardinal to grant you access to the paperwork required for the SWPPP process.  Don't worry, Cardinal has a simple step-by-step process for you to follow to make it as easy as possible.

Note: A STEERS account and ER number are assigned to a person, not a company/entity. If you change jobs or move companies, you should continue using the same account and number. 

Log in to your STEERS account to check on your project or sign documents for your project's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).
