Inspection Requirements for South Dakota

Construction projects that disturb one or more acres—or smaller sites that are part of a larger common plan—commonly require stormwater permit coverage in South Dakota. Eligibility, exemptions, local approvals, and project-specific conditions vary, so confirm coverage under the General Permit SDR100000 before construction begins.
