St. Martinville council adopts MWPP audit resolution tied to LPDES permit LA0040941
Summary
The council reviewed the Municipal Water Pollution Prevention audit for Jan.–Dec. 2025 and adopted a resolution directing continued inspection and repair of the wastewater collection system and maintenance of the treatment facility to meet LPDES Permit LA0040941 requirements.
The St. Martinville City Council on April 6 adopted a resolution addressing the city’s Municipal Water Pollution Prevention (MWPP) Environmental Audit Report for the period Jan. 1–Dec. 31, 2025, a report required under the city’s LPDES Permit (LA0040941). Councilman Mike Fuselier offered the resolution and Councilwoman Flo Chatman seconded it; the resolution was declared adopted by the council.
The resolution states the council reviewed the city’s MWPP Environmental Audit Report for the 2025 calendar year and set forth steps to maintain the LPDES permit requirements. It directs the city to continue its program of inspecting and repairing components of the wastewater collection system to reduce storm-water inflow and infiltration, and to continue operating and maintaining the existing treatment facility and make necessary repairs to meet permit effluent limitations.
The action records the council’s formal review of the audit and communicates those actions to the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, which requires the MWPP audit for permitted wastewater systems. The resolution does not specify a vote tally in the minutes text; the city clerk certified the resolution as a true and correct copy of the document adopted in session.
The council’s steps are procedural directions to city operations rather than new ordinances or budget appropriations; implementation will be carried out by relevant city staff and reflected in ensuing maintenance and inspection work.
