Discharge permits in Nevada
- 311Current permits
- 15Major dischargers
- 247Individual permits
A major discharger is one EPA rates as significant on volume, toxicity or the water it reaches; the rest are minors. An individual permit is written for one operation, while general permit coverage applies a statewide permit to a site that qualifies for it.
This page gathers Nevada’s current permits three ways below — by the program they are issued under, by the city of the discharge, and by watershed. It names 5 programs, 11 cities and 33 watersheds. Each list says which set it covers.
Every permit’s record
Each of the 311 current permits in Nevada has a record page: the permittee, the receiving water, the status and dates, and its effluent limits and exceedances. Each city below lists its own; or every permit in Nevada, A to Z.
