If you have more than five categories, hit the tab key after the last line to generate a new row. Established BMP categories Measurable goals and timeframes Maintain a GIS Storm Sewer Map New or reconstructed storm sewer add as completed Review ordinances and update as needed Review ordinances for updates each year The Illicit Detection and Elimination Program runs throughout each year of the permit.
