Wisconsin DNR 3400-176 Form Details

The Wisconsin DNR Form 3400-176 is the Annual Facility Site Compliance Inspection (AFSCI) report for industrial stormwater permit holders. Facilities in Wisconsin with a WPDES stormwater permit must complete this form every year after conducting a formal facility inspection.

The inspection covers stormwater drainage areas, outfall structures, best management practices (BMPs), and any pollution sources found on-site. Inspectors record the condition of each BMP, maintenance needs identified, and corrective actions planned or already completed. Wisconsin's DNR permit program uses these records to verify that industrial facilities meet stormwater discharge standards under state law.

Completed AFSCI reports must be kept on-site for at least three years and made available during regulatory audits or permit reviews. Permit holders who also manage waterway-related operations may find the ballast water reporting form a useful companion document for environmental compliance tracking.
