Prior to issuance of a grading permit, any grading or excavating project disturbing one (1) acre or greater is required to submit a notice of intent (NOI) to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) to obtain authorization of the proposed stormwater pollution prevention plan. At the discretion of the Community Development Director or representative, activities disturbing less than one (1) acre which are part of a large development may be required to submit a notice of intent to ADEQ.
