Data center swppp and stormwater work for data center, commercial, and industrial projects in Massena and across St. Lawrence County. (315) 400-2654.
Data center sites typically disturb fifty acres or more, which puts them deep into NYSDEC's general permit for stormwater on construction sites. Backwell builds and maintains SWPPP-compliant erosion control and stormwater infrastructure in Massena from the day the first dozer hits the site until final stabilization.
SWPPP work in Massena starts with the perimeter: silt fence, stabilized construction entrance, inlet protection on every downstream catch basin, and sediment traps or basins sized to the disturbed acreage. During construction we run weekly qualified inspector reports, log rain events, and rebuild controls after every storm. At the end we build permanent stormwater features (ponds, swales, bioretention) per the post-construction stormwater plan and hold them until vegetation establishes.
Backwell self-performs the heavy civil work that data center and industrial builds depend on. We own the fleet, run our own crews, and bid the market. For projects in Massena we coordinate directly with the GC and EPC, work to civil and MEP drawings, and turn the site over with the documentation the owner needs for commissioning and turnover.

Massena sits on the St. Lawrence River across from Cornwall, Ontario, on a flat lake plain shaped by glacial Lake Iroquois. Soils across the village and surrounding industrial parcels are dominated by Adjidaumo and Kingsbury silty clays, with Grenville and Hogansburg loams on the slightly higher terraces.
Massena is one of the country's most credible data center sites for raw power: NYPA's Robert Moses-Saint Lawrence hydroelectric plant produces over 800 MW of low-cost firm power, and the existing Alcoa/Arconic industrial corridor has the substations, water, and rail to support hyperscale loads. Site work has to manage the heavy clay subgrades, high water tables, and a frost season that drives deep foundation design.
