Book Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan  SWPPP  for Coal Storage Area Stabilization Project

Download or read book Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan SWPPP for Coal Storage Area Stabilization Project written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scope of this project is to stabilize the abandoned coal storage area and redirect the storm water runoff from sanitary sewer system to the storm drain system. Currently, the existing storm water runoff is directed to a perimeter concrete drainage swale and collected in a containment basin. The collected water is then pumped to a treatment facility and after treatment, is discharged to the Y-12 sanitary sewer system. The existing drainage swale and collection basin along with silt fencing will be used during aggregate placement and grading to provide erosion and sediment control. Inlet protection will also be installed around existing structures during the storm water diversion construction. This project scope will include the installation of a non-woven geotextile fabric and compacted mineral aggregate base (paving optional) to stabilize the site. The geotextile specifications are provided on the vendor cut sheets in Appendix B. The installation of a storm water collection/retention area will also be installed on the southern side of the site in accordance with EPA Technical Guidance on Implementing the Stormwater Runoff Requirements for federal Projects under Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act. The total area to be disturbed is approximately 2.5 acres. The order of activities for this Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) will be: (1) post notice of coverage (NOC) in a prominent display near entrance of the site; (2) install rain gauge on site or contact Y-12 Plant Shift Superintendent daily for Met tower rain gauge readings; (3) install stabilized construction exit on site; (4) install silt fencing along perimeter as indicated on the attached site plan; (5) regrade site; (6) install geotextile fabric and compacted mineral aggregate base; (7) install catch basin inlet protection where required; (8) excavate and lower existing catch basin tops, re-grade and asphalt to drain; and (9) when all disturbed areas are re-stabilized, remove silt fencing and any other temporary erosion control.

Book Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Risk Management

Download or read book Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Risk Management written by Mike Peters QSD, CPESC and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-05-09 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professionals working in the construction industry know the extent of permits and mountains of requirements that have to be followed for every project, so it's not surprising that environmental practices inevitably slip through the cracks. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) were initially developed during the 1990s to minimize the impact and consequences of soil disturbance and construction activity on the environment. SWPPPs are mainly formed around five best management practices (BMPs): Soil stabilization Sediment control Tracking control Non-storm water management Waste management and material storage and use. But these BMPs only work if they are implemented properly. In 2007 independent assurance auditor Mike L. Peters, QSD, CPESC, was consulting for a client in the mountains of West Virginia when he became aware that the nearby streams and rivers were still "dead" due to the effects of coal mining and other industrial activity of the past. Seeing firsthand the importance of environmental stewardship, he set out to create a reference guide for developers and construction engineers that would ensure adhering to sustainable environmental practices would not only be the right thing to do, but also an easy and profitable path to follow. Water Pollution Control Plans (WPCPs) are used when there is less than an acre of disturbed soil on a project. Many of these WPCP projects may have major deficiencies stemming from not implementing 401 Water Quality Certification monitoring correctly when applicable. Additionally, the Non Storm Water (NS) and Waste Management (WM) BMPs are quite often not implemented properly, resulting in deleterious and egregious deficiencies due to hazardous waste and materials not being properly controlled, stored or implemented. While there may be little or no chance for failure of soil stabilization or sediment control BMPs due to minimal disturbed soil area, there are quite often multiple Non Storm Water and Waste Management BMP deficiencies because these BMPs are neglected or not implemented properly. There can be just as much chance of BMP implementation failure on a smaller WPCP project as on a larger SWPPP project. The Non Storm Water and Waste Management BMPs must be taken as seriously as the soil stabilization, sediment control, tracking control and wind erosion control BMPs. In California, a Qualified SWPPP Practitioner (QSP) can write or develop a WPCP, one does not have to be a Qualified SWPPP Developer (QSD) to write a WPCP. If the QSP does not have the knowledge or experience to manage the risk of writing, developing and properly implementing a WPCP, things can be out of compliance before the project starts. Take the writing of a WPCP or a SWPPP seriously and judiciously because the QSP or QSD is developing the actual plan for Storm Water Permit compliance. The language of the WPCP / SWPPP must be compliant with the body and language of the applicable project permits. Be sure of this before starting work. There are Owners (Legally Responsible Person or Entity) of projects that approve or accept the Contractor's WPCP or SWPPP without knowing that it is congruent and compliant with the applicable permits. Have the promulgating agencies of the applicable permits review the WPCP or SWPPP and get them on board with the scope of work, means and methods of the order of work for the project. It is prudent to initiate transparency with these agencies than to hope that they won't know or care about your project. There's an old contractor saying in the construction industry that "It's better to ask for forgiveness than permission." Risk management in the storm water pollution prevention plan and water pollution control plan industry would use an old quote from Clint Eastwood that was used in the Dirty Harry era series of movies..."I only have one question...do you feel lucky?" Manage and control your risk.

Book Urban Stormwater Management in the United States

Download or read book Urban Stormwater Management in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid conversion of land to urban and suburban areas has profoundly altered how water flows during and following storm events, putting higher volumes of water and more pollutants into the nation's rivers, lakes, and estuaries. These changes have degraded water quality and habitat in virtually every urban stream system. The Clean Water Act regulatory framework for addressing sewage and industrial wastes is not well suited to the more difficult problem of stormwater discharges. This book calls for an entirely new permitting structure that would put authority and accountability for stormwater discharges at the municipal level. A number of additional actions, such as conserving natural areas, reducing hard surface cover (e.g., roads and parking lots), and retrofitting urban areas with features that hold and treat stormwater, are recommended.

Book Stormwater Discharge Management

Download or read book Stormwater Discharge Management written by Frank R. Spellman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2003 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive resource provides engineers, managers, compliance specialists, construction professionals, and students with the tool they need to understand and comply with the requirements of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 40 Part 122 stormwater regulations. Stormwater Discharge Management covers the full spectrum of stormwater issues, including stormwater regulations, NPDES permitting, minimum control measures, activities-based discharges, overflows, stormwater monitoring, stormwater enforcement strategy, and the new Stormwater Phase II Rule, which mandated compliance March 10, 2003. Readers will learn who meets the criteria for compliance under this rule and how compliance can be achieved in construction activity, agricultural activity, and marine activity. To help simplify the process, the authors identify each and every compliance requirement, from examining the different types of stormwater discharge permits to writing an effective Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPP). They also include actual EPA field enforcement practices and best management practices to help readers ensure compliance success. Readers will gain a clearer appreciation for the stormwater regulations by reviewing the objectives of the Clean Water Act, the purpose and requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), and the types of discharges/facilities affected by the laws.
