Starting today, August 1, 2023, the Philadelphia Water Department will insert Certificate of Occupancy (CO) holds within eCLIPSE for building permit applications that trigger PWD’s Stormwater Management Review.

The Final CO will not be issued by the Department of Licenses and Inspections (L&I) until PWD’s hold has been resolved. Please note that Temporary COs may also be held for projects that employ stormwater-related zoning bonuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PWD will also continue inserting holds on any issued permits with violation concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This procedure can be reviewed in the recently revised Stormwater Management Guidance Manual’s<\/a> new Appendix M. PCSMP Closeout<\/a>. Any questions about this procedure should be directed to Stormwater Plan Review at PWD.PlanReview@phila.gov<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Beginning September 1, 2023, Development Services is raising certain stormwater management fees and implementing new charges for review and inspection activities. The inspection fee is a one-time charge and will be invoiced with the PCSMP Hourly Review Fee. As adopted by the Water, Sewer, and Storm Water Rate Board on June 21, applicants should expect cost increases for some project-related services provided by PWD. The table below summarizes changes most relevant to the development community.\u00a0Please refer to the 2023 Rate Determination<\/a> and current Rates and Charges <\/a>for more information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n New!
