The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency - National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a program that regulates the discharge of pollutants into U.S. waters. Its purpose is to protect water quality and prevent pollution by controlling point source discharges, such as those from industrial facilities, sewage treatment plants, and stormwater runoff. The NPDES establishes permit requirements and monitoring standards for these discharges to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
