Civil Engineering across Idaho
Idaho administers its own pollutant discharge elimination program (IPDES) through the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, including construction stormwater general permits. The Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) controls access to state highways. Irrigation canals and laterals cross much of the developed Snake River Plain, requiring coordination with canal companies on civil site work.
Idaho professional engineers are licensed by the Idaho Board of Licensure of Professional Engineers and Professional Land Surveyors. Firms practicing engineering in Idaho must hold a certificate of authorization. An Idaho-licensed PE must seal engineering documents and be in responsible charge of the work.
Idaho enforces the Idaho Energy Conservation Code for commercial buildings, based on the IECC. Local jurisdictions adopt and enforce the state code. ASHRAE 90.1 is a recognized compliance path for commercial projects.
Boise, Meridian, and other Treasure Valley cities run their own permit centers with electronic submittal. Smaller cities and counties commonly use third-party plan review. Rapid growth has made review timelines a common project-planning factor in the Boise metro.
