The Department of Energy & Environmental Protection (DEEP) hereby gives notice of the reissuance of the General Permit for Point Source Discharges to Waters of the State from the Application of Pesticides (“Pesticides General Permit”) on October 22, 2024, becoming effective October 22, 2024, and expiring on October 21, 2029.

DEEP has transitioned to an online Noncompliance Reporting platform for permittees to report instances of noncompliance for activities authorized under the general permit and recently launched a new online public platform for persons to report water quality complaints and concerns related to water pollution.

Both online platforms are accessible on the DEEP website: https://portal.ct.gov/deep/water-regulating-and-discharges/industrial-wastewater/industrial-wastewater.
