PR03ECT: NORTHLAKE COLLEGE — NORTH CAMPUS INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND In 1972, Congress passed the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA), also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), to restore and maintain the quality of the nation's waterways. The ultimate goal was to make sure that rivers and streams were fishable, swimmable, and drinkable. In 1987, the Water Quality Act (WQA) added provisions to the CWA that allowed the EPA to govern storm water discharges from construction sites under the national EPA NPDES Storm Water General Permit. In 1998, the EPA published the final notice for General Permits for Storm Water discharges from Construction Activities Disturbing 5 Acres or Greater -- Vol. 63 Federal Register 7898, February 14, 1998. See -- SWP3 Attachment # 6(a). The Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) program implements the federal program in the state of Texas. The TPDES Construction General Permit No. TXR150000 was approved, signed and became effective on March 5, 2003. See-SWP3 Attachment # 6(b). On the same date, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) became the permitting authority for these discharges. The general permit includes provisions for development of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) Manual Binder to maximize the potential benefits of pollution prevention and sediment and erosion control measures at construction sites. The City of Coppell, Texas is the local municipality controlling the affected municipal storm sewer system (MS4) and has provided Erosion Control instructions (for the referenced project) in the Coppell Standard Construction Detail (dated 08/22/06) per City of Coppell Ordinance #2006 -1129. See SWP3 Attachment # 6 (c). PROJECT - NOTICE OF INTENT (NOT); EPA GENERAL NPDES PERMIT; AND TPDES GENERAL PERMAIT CONSTRUCTION SITE NOTICE On August 17, 2007, the Notice(s) of Intent (NOls) for Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity for the NORTHLAKE COLLEGE - NORTH CAMPUS project were filed with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) by V&V Enterprises - Environmental Support Services (V&V) for (1) the Project Construction Manager: STARLING RICHARDSON CONSTRUCTION, INC. (STARLING RICHARDSON) and on behalf of (2) the Owner: DALLAS COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT (DCCCD) under the TPDES Construction General Permit and in compliance with the EPA NPDES Storm Water General Permit. Prior to the filing of the NOI(s), this Project SWP3 Manual Binder was developed. On August 20, 2007, copies of the SWP3 Manual Binder, NOI(s) and TPDES Construction Site Notice(s) (Per #TXR150000) were submitted to the MS4 - City of Coppell - Storm Water Management Section.

Petroleum products will be stored in tightly sealed containers, which are clearly labeled. Any asphalt substances used onsite will be applied according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Fertilizers: Fertilizers used will be applied only in the minimum amounts recommended by the manufacturer. Once applied, fertilizer will be worked in the soil to limit exposure to storm water. Storage will be in a covered shed. The contents of any partially used bags of fertilizer will be transferred to a sealable plastic bin to avoid spills. Paints: All containers will be tightly sealed and stored when not required for use. Excess paint will not be discharged to the storm sewer system, but will be properly disposed of according to manufacturers' instructions or State and local regulations. Concrete Trucks: Concrete trucks will not be allowed to discharge surplus concrete or drum wash water on the site.

CERTIFICATIONS The certification must bear an original signature of a person meeting the signatory requirements specified under 30 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §305.44. IF YOU ARE A CORPORATION: The regulation that controls who may sign an NOI or similar form is 30 Texas Administrative Code §305.44(a)(1) (see below). According to this code provision, any corporate representative may sign an NOI or similar form so long as the authority to sign such a document has been delegated to that person in accordance with corporate procedures. By signing the NOI or similar form, you are certifying that such authority has been delegated to you. The TCEQ may request documentation evidencing such authority. IF YOU ARE A MUNICIPALITY OR OTHER GOVERNMENT ENTITY: The regulation that controls who may sign an NOI or similar form is 30 Texas Administrative Code §305.44(a)(3) (see below). According to this code provision, only a ranking elected official or principal executive officer may sign an NOI or similar form. Persons such as the City Mayor or County Commissioner will be considered ranking elected officials. In order to identify the principal executive officer of your government entity, it may be beneficial to consult your city charter, county or city ordinances, or the Texas statute(s) under which your government entity was formed. An NOI or similar document that is signed by a govern ment official who is not a ranking elected official or principal executive officer does not conform to TCEQ -20023 Instructions (02/06/2007) Page 2 §305.44(a)(3). The signatory requirement may not be delegated to a government representative other than those identified in the regulation. By signing the NOI or similar form, you are certifying that you are either a ranking elected official or principal executive officer as required by the administrative code. Documentation demonstrating your position as a ranking elected official or principal executive officer may be requested by the TCEQ. If you have any questions or need additional information concerning the signatory requirements discussed above, please contact the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's Environmental Law Division at 512/239 -0600. 30 Texas Administrative Code §305.44.

Corporate procedures governing authority to sign permit or post - closure order applications may provide for assignment or delegation to applicable corporate positions rather than to specific individuals. (2) For a partnership or sole proprietorship, the application shall be signed by a general partner or the proprietor, respectively. (3) For a municipality, state, federal, or other public agency, the application shall be signed by either a principal executive officer or a ranking elected official.

Introduction The United States Environmental Protection Agency Region 6 office is reissuing the general permits which authorizes the discharge storm water associated with construction activity. used in this permit. "storm water associated with construction activity" means construction activity disturbing at least five acres, or construction activity disturbing -less than five acres which is part of a larger common plan of development or sale with the potential to disturb cumulatively five o more acres (See 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(x)). These permits replace the previous Baseline Construction General Permits which were issued for a five -year term in September 1992. The most significan changes from the 1992 permits are: ► New conditions to protect listed endangered and threatened species and critical habitats: ► Expanded coverage to construction sites under five acres of disturbed land which are not part of a larger common plan of development or sale when an operator has been designated by the Director to obtain coverage. ► A requirement to post at the construction site the confirmation of permit coverage (the permit number or copy of the Notice of Intent (NOI) if a permit number has not yet been assigned) including a brief description of the project: ► Storm water pollution prevention plan performance objectives have been added. These general permits for storm water discharges associated with construction activity was proposed on June 2. 1997 (62 FR 29786). and are hereby issued for the following areas in Region 6: The States of New Mexico and Texas; Indian Country lands in Louisiana, Oklahoma. Texas and New Mexico (except Navajo Reservation Lands and Ute Mountain Reservation Lands): and oil and gas construction in the State of Oklahoma. B. Answers to Common Questions In this section. EPA provides answers to some of the more common questions on the construction storm water permitting program. These answers are fairly broad and may not take into account all scenarios possible at construction sites. More details on these issues are provided at 63 FR 7858 (February 17. 1998) in the "Summary of Responses to Comments on the Proposed Permit'= section of the reissuance of NPDES General Permits i From Construction Activities for Regions i. 2, 3, 7, 8. 9 and 10. How do I Know if I Need a Permit? You need a storm water permit if you can be considered an "operator" of the construction activity that would result in the "discharge of storm water As associated with construction activity." You must become a permittee if you meet either of the following two criteria: � You have operational control of construction project plans and specifications, including the ability to make modifications to those plans and specifications: or r ► You have day -to -day operational control,of those activities at a project which are necessary to ensure compliance with a storm water pollution prevention plan ( SWPPP) for the site or other permit conditions (e.g., t you are authorized to direct workers at a site to carry out activities required by the SWPPP or comply with other permit conditions). There may be more than one party at a site performing the tasks relating to "operational control" as defined above. Depending on the site and the relationship between the parties (e.g., owner, developer), there can either be a single party acting as site operator and consequently be responsible for obtaining permit coverage, or there can be two or more operators with all needing permit coverage. The following are three general operator scenarios (variations on any of the three are possible as the number of "owners" and contractors increases): ► Owner as Sole Permittee. The property owner designs the structures for the site, develops and implements the SWPPP, and serves as general contractor (or has an on -site representative with full authority to direct day -to -day operations). He may be the only party that needs a permit, in which case everyone else on the site may be considered subcontractors and not need permit coverage. ► Contractor as Sole Permittee. The property owner hires a construction company to design the project, prepare the SWPPP, and supervise implementation of the plan and compliance with the permit (e.g., a "turnkey' project). Here, the contractor would be the only party needing a permit. It is under this scenario that an individual having a personal residence built for his own use (e.g., not those to be sold for profit or used as rental property) would not be considered an Federal Register /Vol. 63, No. 128 /Monday, July 6, 1998 /Notices 36491 operator. EPA believes that the general icontractor, being a professional in the building industry, should be the entity rather than the individual who is better equipped to meet the requirements of both applying for permit coverage and developing and properly implementing a SWPPP. However, individuals would meet the definition of "operator" and require permit coverage in instances where they perform general contracting duties for construction of their personal residences. 10-- Owner and Contractor as Co- Pennittees. The owner retains control over any changes to site plans. SWPPPs., or storm water conveyance or control designs; but the contractor is responsible for overseeing actual earth disturbing activities and daily implementation of SWPPP and other permit conditions. In this case, both parties may need coverage. However, you are probably not an ' operator and subsequently do not need permit coverage if. ► You are a subcontractor hired by, and under the supervision of, the owner or a general contractor (i.e., if the contractor directs your activities on -site, you probably are not an operator); or ► your activities on site result in )earth disturbance and you are not legally a subcontractor, but a SWPPP specifically identifies someone other than you (or your subcontractor) as the party having operational control to address the impacts your activities may have on storm water quality (i.e., another operator has assumed responsibility for the impacts of your construction activities). This particular provision will apply to most utility service line installations. For further information concerning whether utility service line installations meet the definition of operator and require permit coverage. see the discussion under "Installation of Utility Service Lines" in Section VIII, Summary Response to Public Comments of the Fact Sheet. In addition, for purposes of this permit and determining who is an operator, "owner" refers to the party that owns the structure being built. Ownership of the land where .construction is occurring does not necessarily imply the property owner is an operator (e.g., a landowner whose property is being disturbed by construction of a gas pipeline). ikewise, if the erection of a structure as been contracted for, but possession of the title or lease to the land or r structure is not to occur until after construction, the would -be owner may not be considered an operator (e.g., having a house built by a residential homebuiider). My Project Will Disturb Less Than Five Acres, but it May Be Part of "Larger Common Plan of Development or Sale How Can 1 Tell and What Must 1 do? If your smaller project is part of a larger common plan of development or sale that collectively will disturb five or more acres (e.g., you are building on six half -acre residential lots in a 10 -acre development or are putting in a parking lot in a large retail center) you need permit coverage. The "plan" in a common plan of development or sale is broadly defined as any announcement or piece of documentation (including a sign, public notice or hearing, sales pitch, advertisement, drawing, permit application, zoning request, computer design, etc.) or physical demarcation (including boundary signs, lot stakes, surveyor markings, etc.) indicating construction activities may occur on a specific plot. You must still meet the definition of operator in order to be required to get permit coverage, regardless of the acreage you personally disturb. As a subcontractor, it is unlikely you would need a permit. For some situations where less than What Does the Permit Require five acres of the original common plan q of development remain undeveloped, a Regarding Historic Preservation? permit may not be needed for the Today's permit does not currently construction projects "filling in" the last impose requirements related to historic parts of the common plan of preservation, though EPA may modify development. A case in which a permit the permit at a later date after further would not be needed is where several discussions with the Advisory Council empty lots totaling less than five acres on Historic Preservation. Therefore, remain after the rest of the project had under today's permit. EPA will conduct been completed, providing stabilization consultations as it did under the pre - had also been completed for the entire existing Baseline Construction General project. However, if the total area of all Permit on a case -by -case basis as the undeveloped lots in the original needed. Removal of the proposed permit common plan of development was more provisions related to historic than five acres, a permit would be preservation in no way relieves needed. applicants and permittees of their obligations to comply with applicable State. Tribal or local laws for the preservation of historic properties. EPA reminds permittees that according to section 110(k) of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), an intentional action to significantly adversely affect historic resources with intent to avoid Federal historic preservation requirements may jeopardize future permit coverage for such a permittee. How Many Notices of Intent VON Must 1 Submit? Where and When Are They Sent? parcel, any subsequent development or redevelopment of that parcel would be regarded as a new plan of development, and would then be subject to the five - acre cutoff for storm water permitting. What Must 1 do to Satisfy The Permit Eligibility Requirements Related to Endangered Species? In order to be eligible for this permit, you must follow the procedures and examples found in Addendum A for the protection of endangered species. You cannot submit your NOI until you are able to certify your eligibility for the permit. Enough lead time should be built into your project schedule to accomplish these procedures. If another operator has certified eligibility for the project (or at least the portion of the project you will be working on) in his NOL you will usually be able to rely on his certification of project eligibility and not have to repeat the process. EPA created this "coat tail" eligibility option for protection of endangered species to allow the site developer /owner to obtain up -front "clearance" for a project, thereby avoiding duplication of effort by his contractors and unnecessary delays in construction. When Can You Consider Future Construction on a Property To Be Part of a Separate Plan of Development or Sale? In many cases, a common plan of development or sale consists of many small construction projects that collectively add up to five (5) or more acres of total disturbed land. For example, an original common plan of development for a residential subdivision might lay out the streets, douse lots, and areas for parks, schools and commercial development that the dleveloper plans to build or sell to others for development. All these areas would emain part of the common plan of development or sale until the intended aornstruction occurs. After this initial plan is completed for a particular You only need to submit one NOI to cover all activities on any one common plan of development or sale. The site map you develop for the storm water pollution prevention plan identifies which parts of the overall project are 36492 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices under your control. For example, if you )are a homebuilder in a residential development, you need submit only one NOI to cover all your lots, even if they are on opposite sides of the development. The NOI must be postmarked two days before you begin work on site. The address for submitting NOls is found in the instruction portion of the NOI form and in Part II.C. of the CGP. You must also look in Part X of the permit to determine if copies of the NOI form are: to be sent to a State or Indian Tribe. If 1 Am on an ongoing Construction Project, do I Have to Fill in a New NOI To Be Covered by the Permit? Yes, if you are on an ongoing construction project, a construction project which started prior to the effective date, of this permit, you must complete a revised NOI Form (EPA Form 3510 -9) to obtain coverage under this permit. However, applicants who have previously submitted an NOI for permit coverage prior to the effective date of this permit have the option to leave the section regarding Addendum A on endangered species blank unless there is a potential impact on endangered species or their habitat. How do 1 Know Which Permit Conditions Apply to Me? You are responsible for complying with all parts of the permit that are applicable to the construction activities you perform. Part III.E. of the permit defines the roles of various operators at a site. In addition, several States and Indian Tribes require alternative or additional permit conditions, and these can be found in Part X of the permit. Do 1 Have Flexibility in Preparing the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan ( SWPPP) and Selecting Best Management Practices (BMPs) for My Site? Storm water pollution prevention plan requirements were designed to allow maximum flexibility to develop the needed storm water controls based on the specifics of the site. Some of the factors you might consider include: more stringent local development requirements and /or building codes; precipitation patterns for the area at the! time the project will be underway: soil types: slopes; layout of structures for the site: sensitivity of nearby water bodies; safety concerns of the storm water controls (e.g., potential hazards of water in storm water retention ponds to the safety of children: the potential of drawing birds to retention ponds and the hazards they pose to aircraft); and coordination with other site operators. Must Every Permittee Have His Own Separate SWPPP or Is a Joint Plan Allowed? The only requirement is that there be at least one SWPPP for a site which incorporates the required elements for all operators, but there can be separate plans if individual permittees so desire. EPA encourages permittees to explore possible cost savings by having a joint SWPPP for several operators. For example, the prime developer could assume the inspection responsibilities for the entire site, while each homebuilder shares in the installation and maintenance of sediment traps serving common areas. If Project Will Not Be Completed Before This Permit Expires, How Can 1 Keep Permit Coverage? If the permit is reissued or replaced with a new one before the current one expires, you will need to comply with whatever conditions the new permit requires in order to transition coverage from the old permit. This usually includes submitting a new NOI. If the permit expires before a replacement permit can be issued, the permit will be administratively "continued." You are automatically covered under the continued permit, without needing to submit anything to EPA. until the earliest of ► The permit being reissued or replaced; ► Submittal of a Notice of Termination (NOT): ► Issuance of an individual permit for your activity: or ► The Director issues a formal decision not to reissue the permit, at which time you must seek coverage under an alternative permit. When Can 1 Terminate Permit Coverage? Can I Terminate Coverage (i.e., Liability forPennit Compliance) Before the Entire Project Is Finished? You can submit an NOT for your portion of a site providing: (1) You have achieved final stabilization of the portion of the site for which you are a permittee (including, if applicable. returning agricultural land to its pre - construction agricultural use): (2) another operator /permittee has assumed control according to Part VI.G.2.c. of the permit over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized which you were responsible for (for example, a developer can pass permit responsibility for lots in a subdivision to the homebuilder who purchases those lots, providing the homebuilder has filed his own NOI); or (3) for residential construction only, you have completed temporary stabilization and the residence has been transferred to the homeowner. III. Section 401 Certification and Coastal Zone Management Act Section 401 of the Clean Water Act states that EPA may not issue an NPDES permit until the State in which the discharge will originate grants or waives certification to ensure compliance with appropriate requirements of the Act and State law. The Region has received section 401 certification from the appropriate States and Indian Tribes for all facilities covered by today's permits. Additional permit requirements were required as a condition of certification by the State of Texas and by the Pueblos of Isleta, Nambe. Picuris, Pojoaque, Sandia. Tesuque and Santa Clara in New Mexico. These additional permit requirements are contained in Part X of the permits. The Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) requires all Federal permitting actions to be reviewed for consistency with each approved State Coastal Zone Management Plan. Texas is the only State covered by these permits that has an approved Coastal Zone Management Plan. EPA Region 6 has determined that the permit is consistent with the Texas Coastal Zone Management Plan. The Texas Coastal Zone Management Plan procedures for Federal consistency with Coastal Management Program goals and policies (31 TAC 506.12) state that if an activity requiring a state agency or subdivision action above thresholds requires an equivalent Federal permit. the Texas Coastal Coordination Council may determine the consistency of the state agency /subdivision action or the Federal permit, but not both. Permittees whose construction projects are located within the boundary of the Texas Coastal Management Program above thresholds will be required. as a part of pre - construction project approval. to have a consistency review by the Texas Council. An additional consistency review by the Texas Coastal Coordination Council of the storm water discharges from these construction projects covered by today's permit is, therefore. not required. IV. Endangered Species Protection A. Background The Construction General Permit (CGP) also contains conditions to ensure the activities regulated by it are protective of species that are listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) as endangered or threatened (known as "listed species "). and listed species habitat that is designated under Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices 36493 the ESA as critical ( "critical habitat "). In ) addition, the permit's coverage does not extend to discharges and discharge - related activities likely to jeopardize the continued existence of species proposed but not yet listed as endangered or threatened or result in the adverse modification of habitat proposed to be designated critical habitat. The ESA places several different requirements on activities covered by the CGP. First, section 9 of the ESA and the ESA implementing regulations generally prohibit any person from "taking" a listed animal species (e.g., harassing or harming it) unless the take is authorized under the ESA. This prohibition applies to all entities and includes EPA, permit applicants. permittees and the public at large. Second, section 7(a)(2) of the ESA requires that Federal agencies consult with the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) or the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) ( "the Services") to insure that any action authorized, funded or carried out by them (also known as "agency actions ") are not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any listed species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat. Oeopardizing the continued existence of )a listed species means to engage in an action that reasonably would be expected, directly or indirectly, to reduce appreciably the likelihood of both the survival and recovery of a listed species in the wild by reducing the reproduction, numbers or .distribution of that species (See 40 CFR 402.02). The ESA section 7 implementing regulations at 50 CFR 402 apply this consultation requirement to any action authorized by a Federal agency that may affect listed species or critical habitat, including permits. This effect, among other things, can be beneficial, detrimental, direct and indirect. The issuance of the CGP by EPA is thus subject to the ESA section 7(a)(2) consultation requirements. Finally, ESA section 7(a)(1) directs Federal agencies to use their authority to further the purposes of the ESA by carrying out programs for the conservation of listed species, and section 7(a)(4) directs Federal agencies to confer with the Services on Agency actions likely to jeopardize the existence of species proposed but not yet finally listed or result in the adverse modification of critical habitat proposed to be designated. discussions, correspondence, etc. between the Services and a Federal agency or a designated non - Federal representative (NFR) to determine whether a Federal action is likely to have an adverse effect on listed species or critical habitat. During informal consultation the Services may suggest modifications to the action that a Federal agency, permit applicant or non - Federal representative could implement to avoid likely adverse effects to listed species or critical habitat. If adverse effects are likely and those effects cannot be addressed through informal consultation, then formal consultation generally occurs. Also of relevance for the CGP are ESA section 10 incidental taking permits. Section 10 of the ESA allows persons, including non - Federal entities to incidentally take listed animal species, where otherwise prohibited, through the issuance of a permit after development of a habitat conservation plan (HCP). These procedures were developed to allow non - Federal entities such as developers to, among other things, alter habitat without incurring takings liability where take is minimized to the extent practicable. B. Conditions in the June Z 1997 Proposed Permit To Protect Species and Critical Habitat The CGP was proposed with a number of conditions to ensure that storm water discharges and best management practices (BMPs) to control storm water runoff were protective of listed species or critical habitat. Specifically, coverage under the proposed CGP would be granted only under the following circumstances: 1. An applicant's storm water discharges or BMPs to control storm water runoff were not likely to adversely affect listed species (identified in Addendum A of the permit) or critical habitat: or 2. The applicant's activity was previously authorized under § 7 or § 10 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and that authorization addressed storm water discharges and BMPs to control storm water runoff; or 3. The applicant's activity was considered as part of a larger, more comprehensive assessment of impacts on endangered and threatened species under § 7 or § 10 of the ESA which accounted for storm water discharges and BMPs to control storm water runoff. or The ESA regulations provide for two 4. Consultation under § 7 of the ESA types of consultation: formal and was conducted for the applicant's informal. Informal consultation is an activity which resulted in either a no optional process that includes jeopardy opinion or a written concurrence on a finding of no likelihood of adverse effects; or 5. The applicant's activity was considered as part of a larger, more comprehensive site - specific assessment of impacts on endangered and threatened species by the owner or other operator of the site and that permittee certified eligibility under items 1., 2., 3. or 4. above. The proposal required that applicants assess the impacts of their "storm water discharges" and "BMPs to control storm water runoff' on listed species and critical habitat that are located "in proximity" to the those discharges and BMPs when developing Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) as part of the application process. The proposed CGP also required applicants to inclti'de measures in SWPPPs to protect listed species and critical habitat. "In proximity" was defined in Addendum A to include species: ► Located in the path or immediate area through which or over which contaminated point source storm water flows from construction activities to the point of discharge into the receiving water; ► Located in the immediate vicinity of, or nearby, the point of discharge into receiving waters; or ► Located in the area of a site where storm water BMPs are planned or are to be constructed. EPA also solicited comment on whether the area or scope of impacts to be considered by applicants should be broadened to encompass listed species found on the entire construction site and not just those species found "in proximity" as currently defined in Addendum A. Failure by permittees to abide by measures in their SWPPPs to protect species and critical habitat would invalidate permit coverage. Attached to the proposed permits were instructions (Addendum A) to assist permit applicants in making this inquiry. The proposal indicated that a county -by- county species list would be included in Addendum A of the final permit to assist applicants in determining if listed species might be "in proximity" to storm water discharges and BMPs. EPA did not provide a draft species list in proposed Addendum A. Instead, EPA referred commenters to a similar species list that was used for an earlier EPA - issued storm water permit, the Multisector Storm Water General Permit, that was issued on September 29, I995 (See 62 FR 29792, note I2, June 2, 1997). 36494 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6. 1998/Notices C. Final CGP Conditions To Protect Listed Species On April 28. 1997. EPA entered into formal consultation with the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) (the "Services ") for issuance of the CGP. After discussions with the Services. EPA terminated formal consultation and entered into ESA section 7 informal consultation and conferencing with the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the National Fisheries Service Services (NMFS) on June 11. 1997. On November 4, and 26. 1997. EPA completed ESA informal consultation when NMFS and FWS provided their respective concurrences with EPA's finding that issuance of the CGP was not likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat. However, the negotiations on CGP did not consider ongoing construction projects; i.e., construction projects which started prior to the effective date of these permits. In January, 1998. Region 6 decided to address ESA certification issues for ongoing construction projects before finalizing the permit. In February, 1998, EPA Region 6 began a supplemental informal consultation with FWS and NMFS on language to clarify requirements for ongoing construction activity. EPA Region 6 completed ESA, informal section 7 consultation and conferencing when FWS and NMFS provided their concurrences that issuance of these permits is unlikely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat on June 9, and 15, respectively. With the completion of these consultations, EPA Region 6 has reduced the administrative burden associated with obtaining permit coverage for ongoing construction projects for the federal agencies and the regulated community. Based on that consultation and in consideration of comments received on the June 2. 1997, proposal, EPA has placed the following conditions in the permit to protect listed species and critical habitat (See Part I.B.1e). Coverage under the CGP is available for construction projects only if- a. The storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities: are not likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat (Part I.13.3.e.(2)(a)); or b. Formal or informal consultation with the Services under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) has been concluded which addresses the effects of the applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge - related activities on listed species and critical habitat and the consultation results in either a no jeopardy opinion or a written concurrence by the Service(s) on a finding that the applicant's storm water discharges and- - storm water discharge- related activities are not likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat. A section 7 consultation may occur in the context of another Federal on (e.g., an ESA section 7 consultation was performed for issuance of a wetlands dredge and fill permit for the project, or as part of a National Environmental Policy Act INEPA) review); or c. The applicant's constriction activities are covered by a permit under section 10 of the ESA and that permit addresses the effects of the applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge - related activities on listed species and critical habitat (Part I.B.3.e.(2)(0); or d. The applicant's storm water . discharges and storm water discharge - related activities were already addressed in another operator's certification of eligibility under Part I.B.3.e. (2) (a), (b), or (c) which included the applicant's project area. By certifying eligibility under Part I.13.3.e.(2)(d), the applicant agrees to comply with any measures or controls upon which the other operator's certification under Part I.B.3.e.(2) (a), (b) or (c) was based. The CGP requires that applicants consider effects to listed species and critical habitat when developing SWPPPs and require that those plans include measures, as appropriate, to protect those resources. Failure by permittees to abide by measures in the SWPPPs to protect species and critical habitat may invalidate permit coverage. This permit requires all projects commencing construction after the effective date of this permit, to follow the procedures provided in Addendum A of the permit when applying for permit coverage. The Director may also require any existing permittee or applicant to provide documentation of eligibility for this permit using the procedures in Addendum A, where EPA or the Fish and Wildlife Services determine that there is a potential impaction on endangered or threatened species or a critical habitat. Nothing in the permit relieves applicants which are under constriction as of the effective date of this permit of their obligations they may have to comply with any requirements of the Endangered Species Act. Addendum A contains instructions to assist permit applicants in making this inquiry. Those instructions require that applicants ascertain: (1) If their construction activities would occur in critical habitat: (2) whether listed species are in the project area: and (3) whether the applicant's storm water discharges and discharge- related activities are likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat. If adverse effects are likely, then applicants would have to meet one of the eligibility requirements of Part I.B.3.e. (2) (b)-(d) (paragraphs b., c., and d. above) to receive permit coverage. "Discharge- related activities" include activities which cause point source storm water pollutant discharges including but not limited to excavation. site development, and other surface disturbing activities, and measures to control, reduce or prevent storm water pollution including the siting, construction and operation of BMPs. The "project area" includes: 1. Area(s) on the construction site where storm water discharges originate and flow towards the point of discharge into the receiving waters (this includes the entire area or areas where excavation, site development, or other ground disturbance activities occur), and the immediate vicinity; 2. Area(s) where storm water discharges flow from the construction site to the point of discharge into receiving waters; 3. Area(s) where storm water from construction activities discharges into the receiving waters and the area(s) in the immediate vicinity of the point of discharge; and 4. Area(s) where storm water BMPs will be constructed and operated, including any area(s) where storm water flows to and from BMPs. The project area will vary with the size and structure of the construction activity, the nature and quantity of the storm water discharges, the measures (including BMPs) to control storm water ninoff, and the type of receiving waters. Addendum A also contains information on where to find Information on listed and proposed species organized by State and county to assist applicants in determining if further inquiry is necessary as to whether listed species are present in the project area. Applicants can check the Office of Wastewater Management's website (http: / /www.epa.gov /owm). CGP applicants can also get updated species information for their county by calling the appropriate FWS or NMFS office. EPA Region 6 applicants can also contact the EPA Region 6 Stone Water Hotline (1 -800- 245 -6510) for updated species information. The CGP also requires that applicants comply with any conditions imposed under the eligibility requirements of Part 1.B.3.e.(2)a., b., c., or d. above to remain eligible for coverage under this Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128 /Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices 30495 permit. Such conditions must be incorporated in the applicant's SWPPR The CGP does not authorize any prohibited take (as defined under section 3 of the ESA and 50 CFR 17.3) of endangered or threatened species unless such takes are authorized under sections 7 or 10 of the ESA. The CGP does not authorize any storm water discharges or storm water discharge - related activities that are likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any species that are listed or proposed . to be listed as endangered or threatened under the ESA or result in the adverse modification or destruction of habitat that is designated or proposed to be designated as critical under the ESA. It is EPA's intention to provide permit applicants with the greatest possible flexibility in meeting permit requirements for protecting listed species and critical habitat. Thus. EPA. is allowing applicants to use either section 7 or section 10 ESA mechanisms to address situations where adverse effects are likely (See Part I.B.3.e. (2) (b) and (c)). Also, to give applicants additional flexibility in meeting the Part I.B.3.e. eligibility requirements and with the timing of informal consultations, the permit automatically designates CGP applicants as non - Federal representatives, for the purpose of carrying out informal consultation. However, EPA notes that meeting ESA requirements raises difficult implementation issues on how to best ensure that the permits are protective of listed species and critical habitats without unduly burdening permit applicants, permittees, and State, local, and Federal governmental entities. Thus. EPA intends in the future to review those permit conditions and procedures that relate to the ESA and the protection of historic resources to see how well that goal has been achieved and may revise the permits if necessary to better achieve that goal. V. Historic Property Protection A. Background The National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended. (NHPA) establishes a national historic preservation program for the Identification and protection of historic properties and resources. Under the NHPA, identification of historic properties is coordinated by the State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPOs), Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (THPOs) or other Tribal Representatives, (in the absence of a THPO). Section 106 of the NHPA requires Federal agencies to take into account the effects of their actions on historic properties that are listed or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and. to seek comments from the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP). The permit was proposed with a number of conditions pertaining to the consideration of historic properties. EPA has decided to not include those conditions because the ACHP and the National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers ( NCSHPO) have requested that EPA not include such conditions in the final permit at this time. The ACHP and the NCSHPO have recommended that EPA issue the permit but recommend that EPA continue working with them and Tribes regarding the-possible development of a more comprehensive and efficient approach to ensure that effects to historic properties are given appropriate consideration while ensuring undue burdens are not imposed on applicants and regulatory authorities. EPA plans to continue working with the ACHP. NCSHPO and Tribes on this effort and may modify the permit to incorporate procedures regarding the protection of historic resources at.a later date. B. Future CGP Conditions To Protect or Consider Effects to Historic Properties In response to comments received on the permit proposal and because the Agency is still discussing historic preservation with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), the final permit reserves permit requirements related to historic preservation. Today's final permit does not include the eligibility restrictions and evaluation requirements from the proposed permit. After future discussions with the ACHP, EPA may modify the permit to reflect those discussions. VI. Regulatory Review (Executive Order 12866) Under Executive Order 12866, (58 FR 51735 (October 4, 1993)) the Agency must determine whether the regulatory action is "significant" and therefore subject to OMB review and the requirements of the Executive Order. The Order defines "significant regulatory action" as one that is likely to result in a rule that may have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State, local or Tribal governments or communities. create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency: materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof: or raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set forth in the Executive Order. It has been determined that this re- issued general permit is not a "significant regulatory action" under the terms of Executive Order 12866. VII. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Pub. L. 104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and Tribal governments and the private sector. Under UMRA section 202, EPA generally must prepare a written statement, including a cost - benefit analysis, for proposed and final rules with "Federal mandates" that may result in expenditures to State, local, and Tribal governments, in the aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any one year. Before promulgating an EPA rule for which a written statement is needed, UMRA § 205 generally requires EPA to identify and consider a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives and adopt the least costly, most cost - effective or least burdensome alternative that achieves the objectives of the rule. The provisions of UMRA § 205 do not apply when they are inconsistent with applicable law. Moreover, UMRA § 205 allows EPA to adopt an alternative other than the least costly, most cost - effective or least burdensome alternative if the Administrator publishes an explanation with the final rile why the alternative was not adopted. Before EPA establishes any regulatory requirements that may significantly or uniquely affect small governments, including Tribal governments, it must have developed under UMRA § 203 a small government agency plan. The plan must provide for notifying potentially affected small governments, enabling officials of affected small governments to have meaningful and timely input in the development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant Federal intergovernmental mandates, and informing, educating and advising small governments on compliance with the regulatory requirements. A. UMRA Section 202 and the Construction General Permit UMRA §202 requires a written statement containing certain assessments. estimates and analyses prior to the promulgation of certain general notices of proposed rulemaking (2 U.S.C. 1532). UMRA §421(10) defines 36496 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6. 1998/Notices "rule" based on the definition of rule in the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Section 601 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act defines "rule" to mean any rule for which an agency publishes a general notice of proposed rulemaking pursuant to § 553 of the Administrative Procedure Act. EPA does not propose to issue NPDES general permits based on APA § 553. Instead, EPA relies on publication of general permits in the Federal Register in order to provide "an opportunity for a hearing" under CWA § 402(a), 33 U.S.C. 1342(a). Nonetheless, EPA has evaluated permitting alternatives for regulation of storm water discharges associated with construction activity. The general permit that EPA proposes to re -issue would be virtually the same NPDES general permit for construction that many construction operators have used over the past five years. Furthermore, general permits provide a more cost and time efficient alternative for the regulated community to obtain NPDES permit coverage than that provided through individually drafted permits. B. fIMRA Section 203 and the Construction General Permit Agencies are required to prepare small government agency plans under UMRA § 203 prior to establishing any regulatory requirement that might significantly or uniquely affect small governments. "Regulatory requirements" might, for example, include the requirements of these NPDES general permits for discharges associated with construction activity, especially if a municipality sought coverage under one of the general permits. EPA envisions that some municipalities —those with municipal separate storm sewer systems serving a population over 100,000 —may elect to seek coverage under these proposed general permits. For many municipalities, however, a permit application is not required until August 7, 2001, for a storm water discharge associated with construction activity where the construction site is owned or operated by a municipality with a population of less than 100,000. (See 40 CFR 122.26(e)(1)(ii) and (g)). In any event, any such permit requirements would not significantly affect small governments because most State laws already provide for the control of sedimentation and erosion in a similar manner as today's general permit. Permit requirements also would not uniquely affect small governments because compliance with the permit's conditions affects small governments in the same manner as any other entity seeking coverage under the permit. Thus. UMRA § 203 would not apply. VIII. Paperwork Reduction Act On June 2, 1997, EPA solicited comments on the proposed revision to the current Information Collection Request (ICR) document for this permit (ICR approved OMB; OMB No. 2040- 0086, expiration, August 31, 1998) to accommodate the increased information requirements in the new NOI for the construction general permit (62 FR 29826). A revised NOI form has been approved (EPA Form 3510 -9 OMB No. 2040 - 0188.) This revised form is included in the permit in Addendum C. EPA estimates an increase in the burden associated with filling out the NOI form for the permit due to added requirements under the Endangered Species Act. EPA also anticipates a small increase in the time because of the requirement to submit an NOT upon completion of construction activities. IX. Regulatory Flexibility Act Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., a Federal agency must prepare an initial regulatory flexibility analysis "for any proposed rule" for which the agency "is required by section 553 of ]the Administrative Procedure Act (APA)], or any other law, to publish general notice of proposed rulemaking." The RFA exempts from this requirement any rule that the issuing agency certifies ..will not, if promulgated, have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.' EPA did not prepare an initial regulatory flexibility analysis (IRFA) for the proposed CGP. (Note that in today's action, EPA is issuing a separate general permit for each jurisdiction where EPA Issues permits; i.e., in certain States, Indian Country lands and Federal facilities within certain States. However, for purposes of readability, reference is made to the permits in the singular form such as "permit" or "CGP" rather than in plural form.) In the notice of the proposed permit. EPA explained its view that issuance of an NPDES general permit is not subject to rulemaking requirements, including the requirement for a general notice of proposed rulemaking, under APA section 553 or any other law, and is thus not subject to the RFA requirement to prepare an IRFA. Nevertheless, in keeping with EPA's policy to consider the impact of its actions on small entities even when it is not legally required to do so, the Agency considered the potential impact of the permit on small entities that would be eligible for coverage under the permit. EPA concluded that the permit, if issued as drafted, would not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities. EPA based its conclusion on the fact that the draft permit was largely the same as the previous permit issued in 1992 and, to the extent it differed, provided dischargers with more flexibility than that permit allowed. Some commenters on the proposed CGP disagreed with EPA's conclusions that NPDES general permits are not subject to rulemaking requirements and that the proposed permit would not have a significant impact on small entities. They asserted that the CGP is subject to rulemaking requirements and thus the RFA, and that the Agency should have prepared an IRFA for the permit. In light of the comments received, EPA further considered whether NPDES general permits are subject to rulemaking requirements. The Agency reviewed its previous NPDES general permitting actions and related statements in the Federal Register or elsewhere. This review suggests that the Agency has generally treated NPDES general permits effectively as rules, though at times it has given contrary indications as to whether these actions are rules or permits. EPA also reviewed again the applicable law, including the CWA, relevant CWA case law and the APA. as well as the Attorney General's Manual on the APA (1947). On the basis of its review, EPA has concluded, as set forth in the proposal, that NPDES general permits are permits under the APA and thus not subject to APA rulemaking requirements or the RFA. The APA defines two broad, mutually exclusive categories of agency action — "rules" and "orders." Its definition of "rule" encompasses "an agency statement of general or particular applicability and future effect designed to implement, interpret, or prescribe law or policy or describing the organization, procedure. or practice requirements of an agency ' ' ` APA section 551(4). Its definition of "order" is residual: "a final disposition ' ' ' of an agency in a matter other than rule making but including licensing." APA section 551(6) (emphasis added). The APA defines "license" to "include ' ' ' an agency permit' ' '" APA section 551(8). The APA thus categorizes a permit as an order, which by the APA's definition is not a rule. Section 553 of the APA establishes "rule making" requirements. The APA defines rule making as "the agency process for formulating, amending, or repealing a rule." APA § 551(5). By its terms. then, § 553 applies only to "rules" and not also to "orders," which Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices 36497 include permits. As the Attorney b General's Manual on the APA explain, ;. "the entire Act is based upon a dichotomy between rile making and adjudication [the agency process for formulation of an order] " (p. 14). The CWA specifies the use of permits for authorizing the discharge of pollutants to waters of the United States. Section 301(a) of the CWA prohibits discharges of pollutants "[except as in compliance with" specified sections of the CWA, including section 402. 33 U.S.C. 1311(a). Section 402 of the CWA authorizes EPA "to issue a permit for the discharge of any pollutant * * notwithstanding section [301(a) of the CWA)." 33 U.S.C. 1342(a). Thus, the only circumstances in which a discharge of pollution may be authorized is where the Agency has issued a permit for the discharge. Courts, recognizing that a permit is the necessary condition - precedent to any lawful discharge, specifically suggested the use of area -wide and general permits as a mechanism for addressing the Agency's need to issue a substantial number of permits. See NRDCv. Train, 396 F.Supp. 1393, 1402 (D.D.C. 1975); NRDC v. Costle, 568 F.2d 1369, 1381. ' (D.C. Cir. 1977). Adopting the courts' suggestion. EPA has made increasing use of general permits in its CWA regulatory progra;n, particularly for storm water discharges. In the Agency's view, the fact that an NPDES general permit may apply to a large number of different dischargers does not convert it from a permit into a rule. As noted above, the courts which have faced the issue of how EPA can permit large numbers of discharges under the CWA have suggested use of a general permit, not a rule. Under the APA, the two terms are mutually exclusive. Moreover, an NPDES general permit retains unique characteristics that distinguish a permit from a rule. First, today's NPDES general permit for storm water discharges associated with construction activity is effective only with respect to those dischargers that choose to be bound by the permit. Thus, unlike the typical rule, this NPDES general permit does not impose immediately effective obligations of general applicability. A discharger must choose to be covered by this general permit and so notify EPA. A discharger always retains the option of obtaining its own individual permit. Relatedly, the terms of the NPDES general permit are enforceable only against dischargers that choose to make use of the permit. If a source discharges without authorization of a general or an individual permit, the discharger violates § 301 of the Act for discharging without a permit, not for violating the terms of an NPDES general permit. Because the CWA and its case law make clear that NPDES permits are the congressionally chosen vehicle for authorizing discharges of pollutants to waters of the United States, the APA's rulemaking requirements are inapplicable to issuance of such permits, including today's general permit. Further, while the CWA require s that NPDES permits be issued only after an opportunity for a hearing, it does not require publication of a general notice o proposed rulemaking. Thus. NPDES permitting is not subject to the requirement to publish a general notice of proposed rulemaking under the APA or any other law. Accordingly, it is not subject to the RFA. At the same time, the Agency recognizes that the question of the applicability of the APA, and thus the RFA, to the issuance of a general permit is a difficult one, given the fact that a large number of dischargers may choose to use the general permit. Indeed, the point of issuing a general permit is to provide a speedier means of permitting large number of sources and save dischargers and EPA time and effort. Since the Agency hopes that many dischargers will make use of a general permit and since the CWA requires EPA to provide an opportunity for "a hearing" prior to issuance of a permit, EPA provides the public with notice of a draft general permit and an opportunity to comment on it. From public comments, EPA learns how to better craft a general permit to make it appropriate for, and acceptable to, the largest number of potential permittees. This same process also provides an opportunity for EPA to consider the potential impact of general permit terms on small entities and how to craft the permit to avoid any undue burden on small entities. This process, however, is voluntary, and does not trigger rulemaking or RFA requirements. In the case of the CGP being issued today, the Agency has considered and addressed the potential impact of the general permit on small entities in a manner that would meet the . requirements of the RFA if it applied. Specifically, EPA has analyzed the potential impact of the general permit on small entities and found that it will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Like the previous general permit that it replaces (the Baseline Construction General Permit), the permit will make available to many small entities, particularly operators of construction sites, a streamlined process for obtaining authorization to discharge. Of the possible permitting mechanisms available to dischargers subject to the CWA, NPDES general permits are designed to reduce the reporting and monitoring burden associated with NPDES permit authorization, especially for small entities with discharges having comparatively less potential for environmental degradation than discharges typically regulated under individual NPDES permits. Thus, general permits like the permit at issue here provide small entities with a f permitting application option that is much less burdensome than NPDES individual permit applications. Furthermore, the general permit is virtually identical to its predecessor, the Baseline Construction General Permit, under which many construction operators have operated during the past five years. Moreover, the other new provisions of the permit have been designed to minimize burdens on small entities, including eliminating the requirement that construction site operators require that their contractors and subcontractors sign a standard certification statement agreeing to abide by storm water pollution prevention plan provisions developed for a project. In today's general permit, only the operator(s) of a construction site are required to satisfy certification requirements under the permit. EPA believes this modification from the prior permit should reduce any such adverse economic impacts on both operators and contractors/subcontractors who, in many instances, are small entities. In view of the foregoing, the Regional Administrators find that the final general permit, even if it were a rule, will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.

Eligibility 1. Permittees are authorized to discharge pollutants in storm water runoffassociated with construction activities as defined in 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(x) and those construction site discharges designated by the Director as needing a storm water permit under 122.26(a)(1)(v) or under 122.26(a)(9) and 122.26(g)(1)(i). Discharges identified under Part 1.B.3 are excluded from coverage. Any discharge authorized by a different NPDES permit may be commingled with discharges authorized by this permit. 2. This permit also authorizes storm water discharges from support activities (e.g.. concrete or asphalt batch plants, equipment staging yards, material storage areas, excavated material disposal areas, borrow areas) provided: a. The support activity is directly related to a construction site that is required to have NPDES permit ,coverage for discharges of storm water associated with construction activity; b. The support activity is not a commercial operation serving multiple unrelated construction projects by different operators, and does not operate beyond the completion of the construction activity at the last construction project it supports; and c. Appropriate controls and measures are identified in a storm water pollution prevention plan covering the discharges from the support activity areas. 3. Limitations on Coverage a. Post Construction Discharges. This permit does not authorize storm water discharges that originate from the site after construction activities have been completed and the site, including any temporary support activity site, has undergone final stabilization. Industrial post- construction storm water discharges may need to be covered by a separate NPDES permit. b. Discharges Mixed with Non -Storm Water. This permit does not authorize discharges that are mixed with sources he of non -storm water, other than those discharges which are identified in Part III.A.2. or 3. (exceptions to prohibition on non -storm water discharges) and are he in compliance with Part IV.D.5 (non - storm water discharges). C. Discharges Covered by Another Permit. This permit does not authorize e storm water discharges associated with construction activity that have been covered under an individual permit or required to obtain coverage under an alternative general permit in accordance with Part VI.L. e d. Discharges Threatening Water Quality. This permit does not authorize storm water discharges from construction sites that the Director (EPA) determines will cause, or have reasonable potential to cause or contribute to, violations of water quality standards. Where such determinations have been made, the Director may notify the operator(s) that an individual permit application is necessary in accordance with Part VI.L. However, the Director may authorize coverage under this permit after appropriate controls and implementation procedures designed to bring the discharges into compliance with water quality standards have been included in the storm water pollution prevention plan; e. Storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities that are not protective of Federally listed endangered and threatened ( "listed') species or designated critical habitat ( "critical habitat'). (1) For the purposes of complying with the Part I.B.3.e. eligibility requirements, "storm water discharge - related activities" Include: (a) Activities which cause, contribute to. or result in point source storm water pollutant discharges, including but not limited to: excavation, site development, grading and other surface disturbance activities; and (b) Measures to control storm water including the siting, construction and operation of best management practices Federal Register /Vol. 63, No. 128 /Monday, July 6, 1998 /Notices 36499 (BMPs) to control, reduce or prevent storm water pollution. (2) Coverage under this permit is available only if the applicant certifies that it meets at least one of the criteria in paragraphs (a) —(d) below. Failure to continue to meet one of these criteria during the term of the permit will render a permittee ineligible for coverage under this permit. (a) The storm water discharges and storm water discharge - related activities are not likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat; or (b) Formal or informal consultation with the Fish and Wildlife Service and,/ or the National Marine Fisheries Service (the "Services ") under section 7 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) has been concluded which addresses the effects of the applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities on listed species and critical habitat and the consultation results in either a no jeopardy opinion or a written concurrence by the Service(s) on a finding that the applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities are not likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat. A section 7 consultation may occur in the context of )another Federal action (e.g.. a ESA section 7 consultation was performed for issuance of a wetlands dredge and fill permit for the project, or as part of a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review); or (c) The applicant's construction activities are authorized under section 10 of the ESA and that authorization addresses the effects of the applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities on listed species and critical habitat; or (d) The applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge - related activities were already addressed in another operator's certification of eligibility under Part I.B.3.e.(2) (a), (b), or (c) which included the applicant's project area. By certifying eligibility under Part I.13.3.e.(2)(d), the applicant agrees to comply with any measures or controls upon which the other operator's certification under Part 1.13.3.e.(2)(a), (b) or (c) was based. (3) For all projects commencing construction after the effective date of this permit. applicants must follow the procedures provided at Addendum A of this permit when applying for permit coverage. The Director may also require ny existing permittee or applicant to rovide documentation of eligibility for this permit using the procedures in Addendum A. where EPA or the Fish and Wildlife Services determine that there is a potential impaction on endangered or threatened species or a critical habitat. Nothing in this permit relieves applicants which are under construction as of the effective date of ' this permit of their obligations they may have to comply with any requirements of the Endangered Species Act. (4) The applicant must comply with any applicable terms, conditions or other requirements developed in the process of meeting eligibility requirements of Part 1.13.3.e.(2)(a), (b), (c), or (d) above to remain eligible for coverage under this permit. Such terms and conditions must be incorporated in the applicant's storm water pollution prevention plan. (5) Applicants who choose to conduct informal consultation to meet the eligibility requirements of Part I.B.3.e.(2) (b) are automatically designated as non - Federal representatives under this permit. See 50 CFR 402.08. Applicants who choose to conduct informal consultation as a non - Federal representatives must notify EPA and the appropriate Service office in writing of that decision. (6) This permit does not authorize any storm water discharges where the discharges or storm water discharge - related activities cause prohibited "take" (as defined under section 3 of the Endangered Species Act and 50 CFR 17.3) of endangered or threatened species unless such takes are authorized under sections 7 or 10 of the Endangered Species Act. (7) This permit does not authorize any storm water discharges where the discharges or storm water discharge- 1.

All permittees must submit NOT Water Discharge - Related Activities with within thirty (30) days after one or more Unconsidered Adverse Effects on of the following conditions have been Historic Properties. (Reserved) met: a. Final stabilization (see definition Part IX.I) has been achieved on all portions of the site for which the permittee is responsible (including if applicable, returning agricultural land to its pre - construction agricultural rue); b. Another operator /permittee has assumed control according to Part V1.G.2.c. over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized; or c. For residential construction only, temporary stabilization has been completed and the residence has been transferred to the homeowner. Enforcement actions may be taken if a permittee submits a NOT without implemented as a cooperative effort where there is more than one operator at a site; and c. Submit a Notice of Intent (NOD in accordance with the requirements of Part 11, using an NOI form provided in Addendum C of this permit. Only one NOI need be submitted to coverall of the permittee's activities on the common plan of development or sale (e.g., you do not need to submit a separate NOI for each separate lot in a residential subdivision or for two separate buildings being constructed at a manufacturing facility, provided your SWPPP covers each area for which you are an operator). The SWPPP must be implemented upon commencement of construction activities. 2. Any new operator on site, including those who replace an operator who. has previously obtained permit coverage, must submit an NOI to obtain permit coverage. 3. Unless notified by the Director to the contrary, operators who submit a correctly completed NOI in accordance with the requirements of this permit are authorized to discharge storm water from construction activities under the terms and conditions of this permit two (2) days after the date that the NOI is postmarked. The Director may deny coverage under this permit and require submittal of an application for an individual NPDES permit based on a review of the NOI or other information (see Part VI.Q. D. Terminating Coverage C. Obtaining Authorization 1. In order for storm water discharges from construction activities to be authorized under this general permit, an operator must: a. Meet the Part 1.13 eligibility requirements; b. Except as provided in Parts II.A.5 and IIA.6, develop a storm water pollution prevention plan ( SWPPP) covering either the entire site or all portions of the site for which they are operators (see definition in Part IX.N) according to the requirements in Part IV. A "joint" SWPPP may be developed and 36500 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices y meeting one or more of these conditions. Part H. Notice of Intent Requirements A. Deadlines for Notification 1. Except as provided in Parts ILA .3. II.A.4, II.A.5 or II.A.6 below, parties defined as operators (see definition in Part IX.N) due to their operational control over construction plans and specifications, including the ability to make modifications to those plans and specifications, must submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) in accordance with the requirements of this Part at least two (2) days prior to the commencement of construction activities (i.e., the initial disturbance of soils associated with clearing, grading, excavation activities, or other construction activities). 2. Except as provided in Parts II.A.3, II.A.4, I1.A.5 or II.A.6 below, parties defined as operators (see definition in Part IX.N) due to their day -to -day operational control over activities at a project which are necessary to ensure compliance with a storm water pollution prevention plan or other permit conditions (e.g., general contractor, erosion control contractor) must submit a NOI at least two (2) days rior to commencing work on -site. 3. For storm water discharges from construction projects where the operator changes, including instances where an operator is added after a NOI has been submitted under Parts II.A.1 or II.A.2, the new operator must submit a NOI at least two (2) days before assuming operational control over site specifications or commencing work on- site. 4. Operators are not prohibited from submitting late NOls. When a late NOI is submitted, authorization. is only for discharges that occur after permit coverage is granted. The Agency reserves the right to take appropriate enforcement actions for any unpermitted activities that may have occurred between the time construction commenced and authorization of future discharges is granted (typically 2 days after a complete NOI is submitted). 5. Operators of on -going construction projects as of the effective date of this permit which received authorization to discharge for these projects under the 1992 baseline construction general permit must: a. Submit a NOI according to Part II.B. within 90 days of the effective date of his permit. If the permittee is eligible p submit a Notice of Termination (e.g., construction is finished and final stabilization has been achieved) before the 90th day, a new NOI is not required to be submitted; b. For the first 90 days from the effective date of this permit, comply with the terms and conditions of the 1992 baseline construction-general permit they were previously authorized under; and c. Update their storm water pollution prevention plan to comply with the requirements of Part IV within 90 days after the effective date of this permit. 6. Operators of on -going construction projects as of the effective date of this permit which did not receive authorization to discharge for these projects under the 1992 baseline construction general permit must: a. Prepare and comply with an interim storm water pollution prevention plan in accordance with the 1992 baseline construction general permit prior to submitting an NOI; b. Submit a NOI according to Part II.B; and c. Update their storm water pollution prevention plan to comply with the requirements of Part IV within 90 days after the effective date of this permit. B.

Such reservation in no way relieves applicants or permittees from any otherwise applicable obligations or liabilities related to historic preservation under State, Tribal or local law. After further discussions between EPA and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, the Agency may modify the permit. Any such modification may affect future Notice of Intent reporting requirements. C. Where To Submit 1. NOIs must be signed in accordance with Part VI.G. and sent to the following address: Storm Water Notice of Intent (4203), US EPA. 401 M Street, SW. Washington. DC 20460. Part III. Special Conditions, Management Practices, and Other Non - Numeric Limitations A. Prohibition on Non -Storm Water Discharges 1. Except as provided in Parts 1.B.2 or 3 and III.A.2 or 3, all discharges covered by this permit shall be composed entirely of storm water associated with construction activity. 2. Discharges of material other than storm water that are in compliance with an NPDES permit (other than this permit) issued for that discharge may be discharged or mixed with discharges authorized by this permit. 3. The following non -storm water discharges from active construction sites are authorized by this permit provided the non -storm water component of the discharge is in compliance with Part IV-D.5 (non -storm water discharges): discharges from fire fighting activities; fire hydrant flushings; waters used to wash vehicles where detergents are not used; water used to control dust in accordance with Part IV.D.2.c.(2): potable water sources including waterline flushings: routine external building wash down which does not use detergents; pavement washwaters where spills or leaks of toxic or hazardous materials have not occurred (unless all spilled material has been removed) and where detergents are not used: air Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices 36801 conditioning condensate; uncontaminated ground water or spring water; and foundation or footing drains where flows are not contaminated with process materials such as solvents. B. Releases in Excess of Reportable Quantities The discharge of hazardous substances or oil in the storm water discharge(s) from a facility shall be prevented or minimized in accordance with the applicable storm water pollution prevention plan for the facility. This permit does not relieve the permittee of the reporting requirement:; of 40 CFR 110, 40 CFR 117 and 40 CFR 302. Where a release containing a hazardous substance or oil in an amount equal to or in excess of a reportable quantity established under either 40 CFR 110, 40 CFR 117 or 40 CFR 302, occurs during a 24 hour period: 1. The permittee is required to notify the National Response Center (NRC) (800 -424 -8802; in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area call 202 -126 -2675) in accordance with the requirements of 40 CFR 110, 40 CFR 117 and 40 CFR 302 as soon as he or she has knowledge of the discharge; 2. The storm water pollution prevention plan required under Part IV of this permit must be modified within 14 calendar days of knowledge of the release to: provide a description of the release, the circumstances leading to the release, and the date of the release. In addition, the plan must be reviewed to identify measures to prevent the reoccurrence of such releases and to respond to such releases, and the plan must be modified where appropriate. C. Spills This permit does not authorize the discharge of hazardous substances or oil resulting from an on -site spill. D. Discharge Compliance With Water Quality Standards Operators seeking coverage under this permit shall not be causing or have the reasonable potential to cause or contribute to a violation of a water quality standard. Where a discharge is already authorized under this permit and is later determined to cause or have the reasonable potential to cause or contribute to the violation of an applicable water quality standard, the Director will notify the operator of such violation(s). The permittee shall take all necessary actions to ensure future discharges do not cause or contribute to the violation of a water quality standard and document these actions in the storm water pollution prevention plan. If violations remain or re- occur, then coverage under this permit may be terminated by the Director, and an alternative general permit or individual permit may be issued. Compliance with this requirement does not preclude any enforcement activity as provided by the Clean Water Act for the underlying violation. E. Responsibilities of Operators Permittees may meet one or both of the operational control components in the definition of "operator" found in Part IX.N. Either Parts III.E.1 or III.E.2 or both will apply depending on the type of operational control exerted by an individual permittee. Part III.E.3 applies to all permittees. - 1. Permittees with operational control over construction plans and specifications, including the ability to make modifications to those plans and specifications (e.g., developer or owner), must: a. Ensure the project specifications that they develop meet the minimum requirements of Part IV (Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans ( SWPPP)) and all other applicable conditions; -b. Ensure that the SWPPP indicates the areas of the project where they have operational control over project specifications (including the ability to make modifications in specifications), and ensure all other permittees implementing portions of the SWPPP impacted by any changes they make to the plan are notified of such modifications in a timely manner: and c. Ensure that the SWPPP for portions of the project where they are operators indicates the name and NPDES permit number for parties with day -to -day operational control of those activities necessary to ensure compliance with the SWPPP or other permit conditions. If these parties have not been identified at the time the SWPPP is initially developed, the permittee with operational control over project specifications shall be considered to be the responsible party until such time as the authority is transferred to another parry (e.g., general contractor) and the plan updated. 2. Permittees) with day -to -day operational control of those activities at a project which are necessary to ensure compliance with a SWPPP for the site or other permit conditions (e.g., general contractor) must: a. Ensure that the SWPPP for portions of the project where they are operators meets the minimum requirements of Part IV (Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan) and identifies the parties responsible for implementation of control measures identified in the plan: b. Ensure that the SWPPP indicates areas of the project where they have operational control over day -to -day activities; c. Ensure that the SWPPP for portions of the project where they are operators indicates the name and NPDES permit number of the party(ies) with operational control over project specifications (including the ability to make modifications in specifications); 3. Permittees with operational control over only a portion of a larger construction project (e.g., one of four homebuilders in a subdivision) are responsible for compliance with all applicable terms and conditions of this permit as it relates to their activities on their portion of the construction site, including protection of endangered species and implementation of BMPs and other controls required by the SWPPP. Permittees shall ensure either directly or through coordination with other permittees, that their activities do not render another party's pollution controls ineffective. Permittees must either implement their portions of a common SWPPP or develop and implement their own SWPPP. F. Consistency With the Texas Coastal Management Program This permit does not relieve permittees whose construction project is located within the boundary of the Texas Coastal Management Program of their responsibility to insure consistency with all applicable requirements of this State program. While pre - construction approval of development projects is not within the jurisdiction of the Federal NPDES permit program, State or local pre- construction project approvals and /or permits may be required. The permittee's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan must be consistent with any storm water discharge- related requirements established pursuant to, or necessary to be consistent with. the Texas Coastal Management Program. This permit may be reopened. upon petition by the State, to include more stringent discharge requirements applying to areas within the State's designated coastal. zone. The Texas Coastal Management Program boundary covers part or all of the following Texas Counties: Aransas, Brazoria, Calhoun, Cameron, Chambers, Galveston, Harris, Jackson, Jefferson, Kenedy, Kleberg, Matagorda, Nueces, Orange. Refugio, San Patricio, Victoria. and Willacy. To determine if a construction project is located within the Texas Coastal Zone, and if so, the applicable requirements of the Texas Coastal Management Program, please 36502 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices . , Y-ontact the Texas General Land Office's Coastal Hotline at 1- 800-85 -BEACH or access their Internet site at "hitp: // red.glo.state.tx.us/res-mgmt/coastal/"- Information is also available from the Texas Coastal Coordination Council's Coastal Permitting Assistance Office at 1- 888 -3- PERMIT or via the Internet at "http://red.glo.state.tx.us/ coastalpermits/". Part IV. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans At least one storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) shall be developed for each construction project or site covered by this permit- For more effective coordination of BMPs and opportunities for cost sharing, a cooperative effort by the different operators at a site to prepare and participate in a comprehensive SWPPP is encouraged. Individual operators at a site may, but are not required, to develop separate SWPPPs that cover only their portion of the project provided reference is made to other operators at the site. In instances where there is more than one SWPPP for a site. coordination must be conducted between the permittees to ensure the storm water discharge controls and ,other measures are consistent with one another (e.g., provisions to protect listed species and critical habitat). Storm water pollution prevention plans shall be prepared in accordance with good engineering practices. The SWPPP shall identify potential sources of pollution which may reasonably be expected to affect the quality of storm water discharges from the construction site. The SWPPP shall describe and ensure the implementation of practices which will be used to reduce the pollutants in storm water discharges associated with construction activity at the construction site and assure compliance with the terms and conditions of this permit. When developing SWPPPs, applicants must follow the procedures in Addendum A of this permit to determine whether listed endangered or threatened species or critical habitat would be affected by the applicant's storm water discharges or storm water discharge - related activities. Any information on whether listed species or critical habitat are found in proximity to the construction site must be included in the SWPPP. Any terms or conditions that are imposed under the eligibility requirements of Part I.B.3.e and Addendum A of this permit to protect listed species or critical habitat from storm water discharges or storm water discharge- related activity must be incorporated into the SWPPP. Permittees must implement the applicable provisions of the SWPPP required under this part as a condition of this permit. A. Deadlines for Plan Preparation and Compliance The storm water pollution prevention plan shall: 1. Be completed prior to the submittal of an NOI to be covered under this permit (except as provided in Parts II.A.S and II.A.6) updated as appropriate; and 2. Provide for compliance with the terms and schedule of the SWPPP beginning with the initiation of construction activities. B. Signature, Plan Review and Making Plans Available 1. The SWPPP shall be signed in accordance with Part VI.G, and be retained on -site at the facility which generates the storm water discharge in accordance with Part V (Retention of Records) of this permit. 2. The permittee shall post a notice near the main entrance of the construction site with the following information: a. The NPDES permit number for the project or a copy of the NOI if a permit number has not yet been assigned; b. The name and telephone number of a local contact person; c. A brief description of the project-, and d. The location of the SWPPP if the site is inactive or does not have an on- site location to store the plan. If posting this information near a main entrance is infeasible due to safety concerns, the notice shall be posted in a local public building. If the construction project is a linear construction project (e.g., pipeline, highway, etc.), the notice must be placed in a publicly accessible location near where construction is actively underway and moved as necessary. This permit does not provide the public with any right to trespass on a construction site for any reason, including inspection of a site; nor does this permit require that permittees allow members of the public access to a construction site. 3. The permittee shall make SWPPPs available upon request to the Director, a State, Tribal or local agency approving sediment and erosion plans, grading plans, or storm water management plans; local government officials; or the operator of a municipal separate storm sewer receiving discharges from the site. The copy of the SWPPP that is required to be kept on -site or locally available must be trade available to the Director for review at the time of an on -site inspection. Also, in the interest of public involvement. EPA encourages permittees to make their SWPPPs available to the public for viewing during normal business hours. 4. The Director may notify the permittee at any time that the SWPPP does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of this Part. Such notification shall identify those provision of this permit which are not being met by the SWPPP as well as those requiring modification in order to meet the minimum requirements of this Part. Within seven (7) calendar days of receipt of such notification from the Director (or as otherwise provided by the Director), the permittee shall make the required changes to the SWPPP and shall submit to the Director a written certification that the requested changes have been made. The Director may take appropriate enforcement action for the period of time the permittee was operating under a plan that did not meet the minimum requirements of this permit. C. Keeping Plans Current The permittee must amend the storm water pollution prevention plan whenever: 1. There is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the discharge of pollutants to the waters of the United States which has not been addressed in the SWPPP; or 2. Inspections or investigations by site operators, local. State, Tribal or Federal officials indicate the SWPPP is proving ineffective in eliminating or significantly minimizing pollutants from sources identified under Part IV.D.1 of this permit, or is otherwise not achieving the general objectives of controlling pollutants in storm water discharges associated with construction activity. D. Contents of Plan The storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) shall include the following items: 1. Site Description Each SWPPP shall provide a description of potential pollutant sources and other information as indicated below: a. A description of the nature of the construction activity: b. A description of the intended sequence of major activities which disturb soils for major portions of the site (e.g., grubbing, excavation, grading, utilities and infrastructure installation); c. Estimates of the total area of the site and the total area of the site that is Federal Register/Vol. 63. No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices 36.503 expected to be disturbed by excavation, grading, or other activities including off - site borrow and rill areas: d. An estimate of the runoff coefficient of the site for both the pre - construction and post- construction conditions and data describing the soil or the quality of any discharge from the site; e. A general location map (e.g., a portion of a city or county map) and a site map indicating the following: drainage patterns and approximate slopes anticipated after major grading activities; areas of soil disturbance; areas which will not be disturbed; locations of major structural and nonstructural controls identified in the SWPPP; locations where stabilization practices are expected to occur', locations of off-site material, waste, borrow or equipment storage areas; surface waters (including wetlands); and locations where storm water discharges to a surface water, f. Location and description of any discharge associated with industrial activity other than construction, including storm water discharges from dedicated asphalt plants and dedicated concrete plants, which is covered by this permit; )g. The name of the receiving water(s) and the areal extent and description of wetland or other special aquatic sites (as described under 40 CFR 230.3(q -1)) at or near the site which will be disturbed or which will receive discharges from disturbed areas of the project: h. A copy of the permit requirements (attaching a copy of this permit is acceptable): i. Information on whether listed endangered or threatened species, or critical habitat, are found in proximity to the construction activity and whether such species may be affected by the applicant's storm water discharges or storm water discharge - related activities; and j. Information on whether storm water discharges or storm water discharge - related activities would have an affect on a property that is listed or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places; where effects may occur, any written agreements with the State Historic Preservation Officer, Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, or other Tribal leader to mitigate those effects. 2. Controls Each SWPPP shall include a description of appropriate control measures (i.e.. BMPs) that will be implemented as part of the construction activity to control pollutants in storm water discharges. The SWPPP must clearly describe for each major activity identified in Part IV.D.I.b: (a) appropriate control measures and the general timing (or sequence) during the construction process that the measures will be implemented; and (b) which permittee is responsible for implementation (e.g., perimeter controls for one portion of the site will be installed by Contractor A after the clearing and grubbing necessary for installation of the measure, but before the clearing and grubbing for the remaining portions of the site; and perimeter controls will be actively maintained by Contractor B until final stabilization of those portions of the site up- gradient of the perimeter control; and temporary perimeter controls will be removed by the owner after final stabilization). The description and implementation of control measures shall address the following minimum components: a. Erosion and Sediment Controls. (1) Short and Long Term Coals and Criteria: (a) The construction -phase erosion and sediment controls should be designed to retain sediment on site to the extent practicable. (b) All control measures must be properly selected, installed, and maintained in accordance with the manufacturers specifications and good engineering practices. If periodic inspections or other information indicates a control has been used inappropriately, or incorrectly, the permittee must replace or modify the control for site situations. (c) If sediment escapes the construction site, off -site accumulations of sediment must be removed at a frequency sufficient to minimize offsite impacts (e.g.. fugitive sediment in street could be washed into storm sewers by the next rain and /or pose a safety hazard to users of public streets). (d) Sediment must be removed from sediment traps or sedimentation ponds when design capacity has been reduced by 50%. (e) Litter, construction debris, and construction chemicals exposed to storm water shall be prevented from becoming a pollutant source for storm water discharges (e.g., screening outfalls, picked up daily). (0 Offsite material storage areas (also including overburden and stockpiles of dirt, borrow areas, etc.) used solely by the permitted project are considered a part of the project and shall be addressed in the SWPPP. (2) Stabilization Practices: The SWPPP must include a description of interim and permanent stabilization practices for the site, including a schedule of when the practices will be implemented. Site plans should ensure that existing vegetation is preserved where attainable and that disturbed portions of the site are stabilized. Stabilization practices may include but are not limited to: establishment of temporary vegetation, establishment of permanent vegetation, mulching, geotextiles, sod stabilization, vegetative buffer strips, protection of trees, preservation of mature vegetation, and other appropriate measures. Use of impervious surfaces for stabilization should be avoided. The following records shall be maintained and attached to the SWPPP: the dates when major grading activities occur; the dates when construction activities temporarily or permanently cease on a portion of the site; and the dates when stabilization measures are initiated. Except as provided in Parts IV.D.2.a.(2) (a), (b). and (c) below, stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable in portions of the site where construction activities have temporarily or permanently ceased, but in no case more than 14 days after the construction activity in that portion of the site has temporarily or permanently ceased. (a) Where the initiation of stabilization measures by the 14th day after construction activity temporary or permanently cease is precluded by snow cover or frozen ground conditions, stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable. (b) Where construction activity on a portion of the site is temporarily ceased, and earth disturbing activities will be resumed within 21 days. temporary stabilization measures do riot have to be initiated on that portion of site. (c) In and areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 0 to 10 inches), semi- arid areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 10 to 20 inches), and areas experiencing droughts where the initiation of stabilization measures by the 14th day after construction activity has temporarily or permanently ceased is precluded by seasonal and conditions, stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable. (3) Structural Practices: The SWPPP must include a description of structural practices to divert flows from exposed soils, store flows or otherwise limit runoff and the discharge of pollutants from exposed areas of the site to the degree attainable. Structural practices may include but are not limited to: silt fences. earth dikes, drainage swales. sediment traps, check dams, subsurface drains, pipe slope drains. level spreaders, storm drain inlet protection. 36504 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday. July 6. 1998/Notices rock outlet protection, reinforced soil retaining systems, gabions, and temporary or permanent sediment basins. Placement of structural practi in floodplains should be avoided to t degree attainable. The installation of these devices may be subject to section 404 of the CWA. (a) For common drainage locations that serve an area with ten (10) or more acres disturbed at one time, a tempor (or permanent) sediment basin that provides storage for a calculated vole of runoff from a 2 year, 24 hour storm from each disturbed acre drained, or equivalent control measures, shall be provided where attainable until final stabilization of the site. Where no such calculation has been performed, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained, or equivalent control measures, shall be provided where attainable until final stabilizatio ,of the site. When computing the numbe of acres draining into a common location it is not necessary to include flows from oftsite areas and flows from onsite areas that are either undisturbed or have undergone final stabilization where such flows are diverted around both the disturbed area and the ediment basin In determining whether installing a sediment basin is attainable, the permittee may consider factors such as site soils, slope, available area on site, etc. In any event, the permittee must consider public safety, especially as it relates to children, as a design factor for the sediment basin and alternative sediment controls shall be used where site limitations would preclude a safe design. For drainage locations which serve ten (10) or more disturbed acres at one time and where a temporary sediment basin or equivalent controls is not attainable, smaller sediment basins and /or sediment traps should be used. Where neither the sediment basin nor equivalent controls are attainable due to site limitations, silt fences, vegetative buffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries of the construction area and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions. EPA encourages the use of a combination of sediment and erosion control measures in order to achieve maximum pollutant removal. (b) For drainage locations serving less than 10 acres, smaller sediment basins and /or sediment traps should be used. t a minimum, silt fences, vegetative uffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries (and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions) of the construction area unless a sediment basin providing storage for a ces calculated volume of runoff from a 2 he year, 24 hour storm or 3.600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained is provided. EPA encourages the use of a combination of sediment and erosion control measures in order to achieve maximum pollutant removal. ar}� b. Storm Water Management. A description of measures that will be me installed during the construction process to control pollutants in storm water discharges that will occur after construction operations have been completed must be included in the SWPPP. Structural- measures should be placed on upland soils to the degree attainable. The installation of these devices may also require a separate permit under section 404 of the CWA. Permittees are only responsible for the n installation and maintenance of storm r water management measures prior to final stabilization of the site, and are not responsible for maintenance after storm water discharges associated with construction activity have been eliminated from the site. However, post - construction storm water BMPs that discharge pollutants from point sources once construction is completed may, in themselves, need authorization under a separate NPDES permit. (1) Such practices may include but are not limited to: storm water detention structures (including wet ponds); storm water retention structures; flow attenuation by use of open vegetated swales and natural depressions; infiltration of runoff onsite; and sequential systems (which combine several practices). The SWPPP shall include an explanation of the technical basis used to select the practices to control pollution where flows exceed predevelopment levels. (2) Velocity dissipation devices shall be placed at discharge locations and along the length of any outfall channel to provide a non - erosive flow velocity from the structure to a water course so that the natural physical and biological characteristics and functions are maintained and protected (e.g., no significant changes in the hydrological regime of the receiving water). c. Other Controls. (1) No solid materials, including building materials, shall be discharged to waters of the United States, except as authorized by a permit issued under .section 404 of the CWA. (2) Off -site vehicle tracking of .sediments and the generation of dust shall be minimized. (3) The SWPPP shall be consistent with applicable State. Tribal and /or local waste disposal, sanitary sewer or septic system regulations to the extent these are located within the permitted area. (4) The SWPPP shall include a description of construction and waste materials expected to be stored on -site with updates as appropriate. The SWPPP shall also include a description of controls to reduce pollutants from these materials including storage practices to minimize exposure of the materials to storm water, and spill prevention and response. (5) The SWPPP shall include a description of pollutant sources from areas other than construction (including storm water discharges from dedicated asphalt plants and dedicated concrete plants), and a description of controls and measures that will be implemented at those sites to minimize pollutant discharges. (6) The SWPPP shall include a description of measures necessary to protect listed endangered or threatened species, or critical habitat, including any terms or conditions that are imposed under the eligibility requirements of Part I.B.3.e(4) of this permit. Failure to describe and implement such measures will result in storm water discharges from construction activities that are ineligible for coverage under this permit. d. Approved State. Tribal or Local Plans. (1) Permittees which discharge storm water associated with construction activities must ensure their storm water pollution prevention plan is consistent with requirements specified in applicable sediment and erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by State, Tribal or local officials. (2) Storm water pollution prevention plans must be updated as necessary to remain consistent with any changes applicable to protecting surface water resources in sediment and erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by State. Tribal or local officials for which the permittee receives written notice. 3. Maintenance All erosion and sediment control measures and other protective measures identified in the SWPPP must be maintained in effective operating condition. If site inspections required by Part IV.D.4. identify BMPs that are not operating effectively, maintenance shall be performed before the next anticipated storm event, or as necessary to maintain the continued effectiveness of storm Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices water controls. If maintenance prior to the next anticipated storm event is 'impracticable, maintenance must be scheduled and accomplished as soon as practicable. 4. Inspections Qualified personnel (provided by the permittee or cooperatively by multiple permittees) shall inspect disturbed areas of the construction site that have not been finally stabilized, areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation, structural control measures, and locations where vehicles enter or exit the site, at least once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within 24 hours of the end of a storm event of 0.5 inches or greater. Where sites have been finally or temporarily stabilized, runoff is unlikely due to winter conditions (e.g., site is covered with snow, ice, or frozen ground exists), or during seasonal arid periods in and areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 0 to 10 inches) and semi -arid areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 10 to 20 inches) such inspections shall be conducted at least once every month. Permittees are eligible for a waiver of monthly inspection requirements until one month before thawing conditions V e expected to result in a discharge if 1 of the following requirements are met: (1) the project is located in an area where frozen conditions are anticipated to continue for extended periods of time (i.e.. more than one month); (2) land disturbance activities have been suspended; and (3) the beginning and ending dates of the waiver period are documented in the SWPPP. a. Disturbed areas and areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to I precipitation shall be inspected for I, evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants entering the drainage system. ! Sediment and erosion control measures Identified in the SWPPP shall be observed to ensure that they are operating correctly. Where discharge locations or points are accessible, they shall be Inspected to ascertain whether erosion control measures are effective in preventing significant impacts to receiving waters. Where discharge locations are inaccessible, nearby downstream locations shall be inspected to the extent that such inspections are practicable. locations where vehicles include additional or modified BMPs designed to correct problems identified. Revisions to the SWPPP shall be completed within 7 calendar days following the inspection. If existing BMPs need to be modified or if additional BMPs are necessary, implementation shall be completed before the next anticipated storm event. If implementation before the next anticipated storm event is impracticable, they shall be implemented as soon as practicable. c. A report summarizing the scope of the inspection, name(s) and qualifications of personnel making the inspection, the date(s) of the inspection, and major observations relating to the implementation of the SWPPP shall be made and retained as part of the SWPPP for at least three years from the date that the site is finally stabilized. Major observations should include: the location(s) of discharges of sediment or other pollutants from the site; location(s) of BMPs that need to be maintained; location(s) of BMPs that failed to operate as designed or proved inadequate for a particular location; and location(s) where additional BMPs are needed that did not exist at the time of inspection. Actions taken in accordance with Part IV.D.4.b of this permit shall be made and retained as part of the storm water pollution prevention plan for at least three years from the date that the site is finally stabilized. Such reports shall identify any incidents of non- compliance. Where a report does not Identify any incidents of non- compliance, the report shall contain a certification that the facility is in compliance with the storm water pollution prevention plan and this permit. The report shall be signed in accordance with Part VI.G of this permit. 5. Non -Storm Water Discharges Except for flows from fire fighting activities, sources of non -storm water Listed in Part III.A.2 or 3 of this permit that are combined with storm water discharges associated with construction activity must be identified in the SWPPP. The SWPPP shall identify and ensure the implementation of appropriate pollution prevention reasures for the non -storm water components) of the discharge. enter or exit the site shall be inspected P; for evidence of offsite sediment tracking. A. b. Based on the results of the the SWPPP shall be stt JIpection, difed as necessary (e.g.. show an additional controls on map required by an Part IV.D.1; revise description of the controls required by Part lV.D2) to pe art V. Retention of Records Documents The permittee shall retain copies of )rm water pollution prevention plans d all reports required by this permit, d records of all data used to complete Notice of Intent to be covered by this rmit, for a period of at least three 36505 years from the date that the site is finally stabilized, This period may be extended by request of the Director at any time. B. Accessibility The permittee shall retain a copy of the storm water pollution prevention plan required by this permit (including a copy of the permit language) at the construction site (or other local location accessible to the Director, a State. Tribal or local agency approving sediment and erosion plans, grading plans, or storm water management plans; local government officials; or the operator of a municipal separate storm sewer receiving discharges from the site) from the date of project initiation to the date of final stabilization. Permittees with day - today operational control over SWPPP implementation shall have a copy of the SWPPP available at a central location on -site for the use of all operators and those identified as having responsibilities under the SWPPP whenever they are on the construction site. C. Addresses Except for the submittal of NOls and NOTs (see Parts II.0 and VIII.B. respectively), all written correspondence concerning discharges in any State, Indian Country land or from any Federal facility covered under this permit and directed to the EPA, including the submittal of individual permit applications. shall be sent to the address listed below: United States EPA, Region 6, Storm Water Staff, Enforcement and Compliance Assurance Division (GEN -WC), EPA SW Construction GP, P.O. Box 50625. Dallas, TX 75205. Part VI. Standard Permit Conditions A. Duty To Comply 1.

The Notice of rmination shall include the following Formation: 1. The NPDES permit number for the storm water discharge identified by the Notice of Termination: 2. An indication of whether the storm water discharges associated with construction activity have been eliminated (i.e.. regulated discharges of., storm water are being terminated) or the permittee is no longer an operator at the site; 3. The name, address and telephone number of the permittee submitting the Notice of Termination; 4. The name of the project and street address (or a description of location if st no street address is available) of the construction site for which the notification is submitted; 5. The latitude and longitude of the construction site; and 6. The following certification, signed in accordance with Part VI.G (signatory ed requirements) of this permit. For construction projects with more than one permittee and/or operator, the permittee need only make this certification for those portions of the construction site where the permittee was authorized under this permit and not for areas where the permittee was not an operator: "I certify under penalty of law that all storm water discharges associated with industrial activity from the identified facility that authorized by a general permit have been eliminated or that I am no longer the operator of the facility or construction site. I understand that by submitting this notice of termination, I am no longer authorized to discharge storm water associated with industrial activity under this general permit, and that discharging pollutants in storm water associated with industrial activity to waters of the United States is unlawful under the Clean Water Act where the discharge is not authorized by a NPDES permit. I also understand that the submittal of this Notice of Termination does not release an operator from liability for any violations of this permit or the Clean Water Act." For the purposes of this certification, elimination of storm water discharges associated with construction activity means that all disturbed soils at the portion of the construction site where the operator had control have been finally stabilized (as defined in Part IX.I) and temporary erosion and sediment control measures have been removed or will be removed at an appropriate time to ensure final stabilization is nnaintained, or that all storm water discharges associated with construction activities from the identified site that s are authorized by a NPDES general permit have otherwise been eliminated from the portion of the construction site where the operator had control. B. Addresses 1. All Notices of Termination, signed in accordance with Part VI.0 of this permit, are to be submitted using the form provided by the Director (or a photocopy thereof), to the address specified on the NOT form. Part IX. Definitions A. Best Management Practices ( "BMPs ") means schedules of activities. prohibitions of practices, maintenance procedures, and other management practices to prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants to waters of the United States. BMPs also include treatment requirements, operating procedures, and practices to control plant site runoff, spillage or leaks, sludge or waste disposal, or drainage from raw material storage. B. Control Measure as used in this permit, refers to any Best Management Practice or other method used to prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants to waters of the United States. C. Commencement of Construction the initial disturbance of soils associated with clearing, grading, or excavating activities or other construction activities. D. CWA means the Clean Water Act or the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq. E. Director means the Regional Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency or an authorized representative. F. Discharge when used without qualification means the "discharge of a pollutant." G. Discharge of Stone Water Associated With Construction Activity as used in this permit, refers to a discharge of pollutants in storm water runoff from areas where soil disturbing activities (e.g., clearing, grading, or excavation), construction materials or equipment storage or maintenance (e.g., fill piles, borrow areas, concrete truck washout, fueling), or other industrial storm water directly related to the construction process (e.g., concrete or asphalt batch plants) are located. H. Facility or Activity means any NPDES "point source" or any other facility or activity (including land or appurtenances thereto) that is subject to regulation under the NPDES program. I. Final Stabilization means that either: 1. All soil disturbing activities at the ite have been completed and a uniform e.g., evenly distributed, without large bare areas) perennial vegetative cover with a density of 70% of the native background vegetative cover for the area Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices 36509 has been established on all unpaved areas and areas not covered by permanent structures, or equivalent permanent stabilization measures (su as the use of riprap, gabions, or geotextiles) have been employed. In some parts of the country, background native vegetation will cover less than 100% of the ground (e.g., arid areas, beaches). Establishing at least 70% of the natural cover of native vegetation meets the vegetative cover criteria for final stabilization (e.g.. if the native vegetation covers 50% of the ground, 70% of 50% would require 35% total cover for final stabilization; on a beat with no natural vegetation, no stabilization is required); or 2. For individual lots in residential construction by either: (a) the homebuilder completing final stabilization as specified above, or (b) the homebuilder establishing tempora stabilization including perimeter controls for an individual lot prior to ' occupation of the home by the homeowner and informing the homeowner of the need for, and benefr of, final stabilization. (Homeowners typically have an incentive to put in landscaping functionally equivalent to final stabilization as quick as possible t �eep mud out of their homes and off eir sidewalks and driveways.); or 3. For construction projects on land used for agricultural purposes (e.g., pipelines across crop or range land), final stabilization may be accomplished by returning the disturbed land to its preconstruction agricultural use. Areas disturbed that were not previously used for agricultural activities, such as buffer strips immediately adjacent to "waters of the United States," and areas which are not being returned to their preconstruction agricultural use must meet the final stabilization criteria in (1) or (2) above. J. Flow- Weighted Composite Sample means a composite sample consisting of a mixture of aliquots collected at a constant time interval, where the volume of each aliquot is proportional to the flow rate of the discharge. K. Large and Medium Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System means all municipal separate storm sewers that are either. 1. Located in an incorporated place (city) with a population of 100,000 or more as determined by the latest Decennial Census by the Bureau of Census (these cities are listed in ppendices F and G of 40 CFR 122); or 2.

The party has day -to -day is operational control of those activities a a project which are necessary to ensure compliance with a storm water pollution prevention plan for the site o 0 other permit conditions (e.g., they are authorized to direct workers at a site to carry out activities required by the SWPPP or comply with other permit conditions). This definition is provided to inform permittees of EPA's interpretation of how the regulatory definitions of "owner or operator" and "facility or activity" are applied to discharges of storm water associated with construction activity. O. Owner or operator means the owner or operator of any "facility or activity" subject to regulation under the NPDES program. P. Point Source means any discernible, confined, and discrete conveyance, including but not limited to, any pipe, ditch, channel, tunnel, conduit, well, discrete fissure, container, rolling stock, concentrated animal feeding operation, landfill leachate collection system, vessel or other floating craft from which pollutants are or may be discharged. This term does not include return flows from irrigated agriculture or agricultural storm water runoff. Q. Pollutant is defined at 40 CFR 122.2. A partial listing from this definition includes: dredged spoil, solid waste, sewage, garbage, sewage sludge, chemical wastes, biological materials, heat. wrecked or discarded equipment, rock, sand, cellar dirt, and industrial or municipal waste.

Background To meet its obligations under the Clean Water Act and the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and to promote those Acts' goals, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking to ensure the activities regulated by the Construction General Permit (CGP) are protective of endangered and threatened species and critical habitat. To ensure that those goals are met, applicants for CGP coverage are required under Part 1.B.3.e. to assess the impacts of their storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities on Federally listed endangered and threatened species (..listed species') and designated critical habitat ( "critical habitat') by following Steps One through Six listed below. EPA strongly recommends that applicants follow these steps at the earliest possible stage to ensure that measures to protect listed species and critical habitat are incorporated early in the planning process. At minimum, the procedures should be followed when developing the storm water pollution prevention plan. Permittees and applicants also have an independent ESA obligation to ensure that their activities do not result in any prohibited "takes" of listed species. I Many of the measures required in the CGP and in these instructions to protect species may also assist permittees in ensuring that their construction activities do riot result in a prohibited take of species in violation of § 9 of the ESA. Applicants who plan construction activities in areas that harbor endangered and threatened species are advised to ensure that I Section 9 of the ESA prohibits any person from "taking" a listed species (eg.. harassing or harming It) unless: (1) the taking is authorized through a "Incidental take statement-as part of undergoing ESA S 7 formal consultation: (2) where an incidental take permit is obtained under ESA S 10 (which requires the development of a habitat conservation plan): or (3) where otherwise authorized or exempted under the ESA This prohibition applies to all entities Including private individuals, businesses, and governments. 36512 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices they are protected from potential takings liability under ESA § 9 by obtaining either an ESA § 10 permit or by requesting formal consultation under ESA § 7 (as described in more detail in Step Seven below). Applicants who seek protection from takings liability should be aware that it is possible that some! specific construction activities may be too unrelated to storm water discharges to be afforded incidental take coverage through an ESA § 7 consultation that is performed to meet the eligibility requirements for CGP coverage. In such instances, applicants should apply for an ESA § 10 permit. Where applicants are not sure whether to pursue a § 10 permit or a § 7 consultation for takings protection, they should confer with the appropriate Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) or National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) office. This permit provides for the possibility of multiple permittees at a construction site. Applicants should be aware that in many cases they can meet the permit eligibility requirements by relying on another operator's certification of eligibility under Part I.B.3.e.(2)(a), (b), or (c). This is allowed under Part I.B.3.e.(2)(d) of the permit. However, the ' other operator's certification must a 1 to Note. —The revised NOI forth which was included in the CGP (see 62 FR 29822 -2982 June 2. 1997) requires that applicants provid detailed certification information on listed species. That form is still under developmen and is not expected to be finalized before permit is issued. Until the revised NOI form is finalized, applicants must use the existing NOI form which does not contain the specffi certification provisions relating to listed species and critical habitats at construction projects. However, use of the existing NOI form does not relieve applicants of their obligation to follow the procedures listed below to determine if their construction storm water discharges or storm water discharge - related activities meet permit eligibility requirements for the protection of listed species and critical habitat By following these instructions, applicants will have sufficient information on listed species and critical habitat in order to complete either the existing or revised NOI form and sign the certification statement. Step One: Determine if the Construction Site Is Found Within Designated Critical Habitat for Listed Species the applicant's project area and must address Some, but not all, listed species have the effects from the applicant's storm water designated critical habitat. Exact locations of discharges and storm water discharge - related such habitat is provided in the Service activities on listed species and critical regulations at 50 CFR Parts 17 and 226. To habitat. By certifying eligibility under Part determine if their construction site occurs I.B.3.e.(2)(d), the applicant agrees to comply within designated critical habitat, applicants with any measures or controls upon which should either. he other operator's certification under Part • Contact the nearest Fish and Wildlife 1B.3.e.(2)(a), (b) or (c) was based. This Service (FWS) and National Marine Fisheries situation will typically occur where a Service (NMFS) Office.

If the site is located within critical applicant should provide its own habitat, then the applicant must look at independent certification under Part impacts to critical habitat when following I.B.3.e.(2)(a), (b), or (c). Steps Two through Six. Note that many but B. Procedures To receive coverage under the Construction General Permit, applicants must assess the potential effects of their storm water discharges and storm water discharge - related activities on listed species and their critical habitat. To make this assessment, applicants must follow the steps outlined below prior to completing and submitting Notice of Intent (NOD form. Applicants who are able to certify eligibility under Parts I.B.3.e.(2)(b). (c) (d) because of a previously issued ESA 10 permit. a previously completed ESA § 7 siltation, or because the applicant's activities were already addressed in another operator's certification of eligibility may proceed directly to Step Six. riot all measures imposed to protect listed species under these steps will also protect critical habitat. Thus, meeting the eligibility requirements of this permit may require measures to protect critical habitat that are separate from those to protect listed species. Step Tyro: Detenmine if Listed Species Are Located in the Counry6es) Where the Construction Activiry Will Occur Section N of the Addendum contains a county-by -county list of listed endangered and threatened species ("listed species'), and proposed endangered and threatened species (- proposed species'). Since the list was current as of September 1, 1997, applicants must also check with other sources for updated species and county information. These sources include: Sections 11 and III of 3, this Addendum: EPA's Office of Wastewater e Managements web'page at " http: // www.epa.gov /owm" where updates of the t county-by -county list will be posted on a the periodic basis: Federal Register Notices: State wildlife protection offices. a biologist or similar professional in the environmental c field: or any other method which can be reasonably expected to provide this information. Applicants with construction projects located in EPA Region 2 and Region 6 can call the Storm Water General Permits Hotline at (800) 245 -6510 for further assistance, while applicants with projects located in EPA Regions 1. 3. 7, 8, 9 and 10 may contact the appropriate EPA Regional Office. Where a facility is located in more than one county, the lists for all counties should be reviewed. Where a facility discharges into a water body which serves as a border between counties or which crosses a county line which is in the immediate vicinity of the point of discharge, applicants should also review the species list for the county which lies immediately downstream or is across the water body from the point of discharge. After a review of the available information from the sources mentioned above, if no listed species are located in a facility's county or if a facility's county is not listed. and the construction site is not located in critical habitat as described under Step One, an applicant is eligible for CGP coverage without further inquiry into the presence of, or effect to, listed species. The applicant must check the appropriate certification item on the revised NOI form (Part I.B.3.e.(2)(a)). Once the applicant has determined which listed species are located in his or her facility's county, the applicant must follow Step Step Three. Determine if any Federally Listed Endangered and Threatened Species May Be Present in the Project Area The project area consists of- - The areas on the construction site where storm water discharges originate and flow toward the point of discharge into the receiving waters (including areas where excavation, site development, or other ground disturbance activities occur) and the immediate vicinity. Example(s) I . Where bald eagles nest in a tree that is on or bordering a construction site and could be disturbed by the construction activity. 2. Where grading causes storm water to flow into a small wedand or other habitat that is on the site which contains listed species. • The areas where storm water discharges flow from the construction site to the point of discharge into receiving waters. Example(s) 1. Where storm water flows into a ditch. Swale, or gully which leads to receiving waters and where listed species (such as amphibians) are found in the ditch, swale. or gully. • The areas where storm water from construction activities discharge into receiving waters and the areas in the immediate vicinity of the point of discharge. Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6. 1998/Notices - 1rvu'1 Example(s) 1. Where storm water from construction activities discharges into a stream segment that is known to harbor listed aquatic species. • The areas where storm water BMPs will be constructed and operated, including any areas where storm water flows to and from BMPs. Example(s) 1. Where a storm water retention pond would be built. The project area will vary with the size and structure of the construction activity, the nature and quantity of the storm water discharges, the storm water discharge- related activities and the type of receiving water. Given the number of construction activities potentially covered by the CGP, no specific method to determine whether listed species may be located in the project area is required for coverage under the CGP. Instead, applicants should use the method which allows them to determine, to the best of their knowledge, whether listed species are located in their project area. These methods may include: • Conducting visual inspections: This method may be particularly suitable for construction sites that are smaller in size or located in non - natural settings such as highly urbanized areas or industrial parks where there is little or no natural habitat, or for construction activities that discharge directly into municipal storm water collection �ystems. II • Contacting the nearest State or Tribal wildlife agency, the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), or the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). Many endangered and threatened species are found in well- defined areas or habitats. Such information is frequently known to State. Tribal, or Federal wildlife agencies. A list of FWS and NMFS offices is provided in Section 11 of this Addendum below. • Contacting local/regional conservation groups or the State or Tribal Natural Heritage Centers (see Section III of this Addendum). State and local conservation groups may have location specific listed species information. The Natural Heritage Centers inventory species and their locations and maintain lists of sightings and habitats. • Submitting a data request to a Natural Heritage Center. Many of these centers will provide site specific information on the C presence of listed species in a project area. Some of these centers will charge a fee for researching data requests. ;s • Conducting a formal biological survey. Larger construction sites with extensive I storm water discharges may choose to a conduct biological surveys as the most i effective way to assess whether species are s located in the project area and whether there E" are likely adverse effects. Biological surveys n are frequently performed by environmental - onsulting Firms. A biological survey can be sr ,ed to follow Steps Four through Six of sl environmental assessments under NEPA. Such assessments may indicate if listed species are in the project area. Coverage under the CGP does not trigger such an assessment because the permit does not regulate any dischargers subject to New Source Performance Standards under Section 306 of the Clean Water Act, and is thus statutorily exempted from NEPA. See CWA § 511(c). However, some construction activities might require review under NEPA because of Federal funding or other Federal involvement in the project If no species are found in the project area, an applicant is eligible for CGP coverage. Applicants must provide the necessary certification on the revised NOI form. If listed species are found in the project area, applicants must indicate the location and nature of this presence in the storm water pollution prevention plan and follow Step Four. Step Four. Determine if Listed Species or Critical Habitat Are Likely To Be Adversely Affected by the Construction Activity's Storm Water Discharges or Storm Water Discharge - Related Activities To receive CGP coverage, applicants must assess whether their storm water discharges or storm water discharge - related activities are likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat. "Storm water discharge - related activities" include: • Activities which cause, contribute to, or result in point source storm water pollutant discharges, including but not limited to excavation, site development, grading, and other surface disturbance activities: and • Measures to control storm water discharges including the siting, construction, operation of best management practices (BMPs) to control, reduce or prevent storm water pollution. Potential adverse effects from storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities include: • Hydrological. Storm water discharges may cause siltation, sedimentation or induce other changes in receiving waters such as temperature, salinity or pH. These effects will vary with the amount of scorn water discharged and the volume and condition of the receiving water. Where a storm water discharge constitutes a minute portion of the total volume of the receiving water, adverse hydrological effects are less likely. orstruction activity itself may also alter drainage patterns on a site where �rstruction occurs which can impact listed pecies or critical habitat. • Habitat Excavation, site development ¢ceding, and other surface disturbance Ktivities from construction activities, ncluding the installation or placement of torn water BMPs, may adversely affect sted species or their habitat. Storm water my drain or inundate listed species habitat. • Toxicity. In some cases. pollutants in a SID water may have toxic effects on listed xcies. �se instructions. The scope of effects to consider will vary • Conducting an environmental with each site. If the applicant is having assessment under the National difficulty in determining whether his or her Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Some project is likely to adversely Affect a listed construction activities may require species or critical habitat, then the appropriate office of the FWS, NNIFS or Natural Heritage Center listed in Sections 11 and Ill of this Addendum should be contacted for assistance. If adverse effects are not likely, then the applicant should make the appropriate certification on the revised NOI form and apply for coverage under the permit. If adverse effects are likely, applicants must follow Step Five. Step Five: Determine if Measures Can Be Implemented To Avoid Any Adverse Effects If an applicant makes a preliminary determination that adverse effects are likely, it can still receive coverage under Part I.B.3.e.(2)(a) of the CGP if appropriate measures are undertaken to avoid or eliminate the likelihood of adverse effects prior to applying for permit coverage. These measures may involve relatively simple changes to construction activities such as re- routing a storm water discharge to bypass an area where species are located. relocating BMPs, or by changing the "footprint" of the construction activity. Applicants may wish to contact the FWS and/or NMFS to see what appropriate measures might be suitable to avoid or eliminate the likelihood of adverse impacts to listed species and/or critical habitat (See 50 CFR 402.13(6).) This can entail the initiation of informal consultation with the FWS and /or NMFS which is described in more detail in Step Six. If applicants adopt measures to avoid or eliminate adverse effects, they must continue to abide by those measures during the course of permit coverage. These measures must be descri bed in the storm water pollution prevention plan and may be enforceable as Permit conditions. If appropriate measures to avoid the likelihood of adverse effects are not available to the applicant, the applicant must follow Step Six. Step Six. Determine if the Eligibility Requirements of Parr LB. 3.e. (2)M)- (d) Can Be Met Where adverse effects are likely, the applicant must contact the EPA and FWS/ NMFS. Applicants may still be eligible for CGP coverage if any likely adverse effects can be addressed through meeting the criteria of Part LB.3.e.(2) (b) -(d) of the permit These criteria are as follows: 1. An ESA Section 7 Consultation Is Performed for the Applicant's Activity (See Part LB.3.e.(2)(b) Formal or informal ESA § 7 consultation is Performed with the FWS and/or NMFS which addresses the effects of the applicant's storm water discharges and storm water discharge- related activities on listed species and critical habitat The formal consultation must result in either a "no jeopardy opinion" or a ',jeopardy opinion" that identifies reasonable and prudent alternatives to avoid jeopardy which are to be implemented by the pplicant. The informal consultation must result in a written concurrence by the Services) on a finding that the applicant's orm water discharge(s) and storn water Lscharge- related activities are not likely to Iversely affect listed species or critical rbitat (for informal consultation, see 50 CFR 12.13). 36514 Federal Register/Vol. 63, No. 128/Monday, July 6, 1998/Notices , Most consultations are accomplished ugh informal consultation. By the terms f this permit. EPA has automatically designated applicants as non - Federal representatives for the purpose of conducting, informal consultations. See Part I.B.3.e.(5) and 50 CFR 402.08 and 402.13. When conducting informal ESA § 7 consultation as a non - Federal representative, applicants must . follow the procedures found in 50 CFR 402 of the ESA regulations. Applicants must also notify EPA and the Services of their intention and agreement to conduct consultation as a non - Federal representative. Consultation may occur in the context of another Federal action at the construction site (e.g., where ESA § 7 consultation was performed for issuance of a wetlands dredge and fill permit for the project or where a NEPA review is performed for the project which incorporates a section 7 consultation). Any terns and conditions developed through consultations to protect listed species and critical habitat must be incorporated into the SWPPP. As noted above, applicants may, if they wish, initiate consultation with the Services at Step Five. , Whether ESA §7 consultation must be performed with either the FWS, NMFS or both Services depends on the listed species which may be affected by the applicant's activity. In general, NMFS has jurisdiction over marine, estuarine. and anadromous species. Applicants should also be aware that while formal § 7 consultation provides orotecdon from incidental takings liability, formal consultation does not. )An Incidental Taking Permit Under Section 10 of the ESA Is Issued for the Applicants Activity (See Part I.11.3.e.(2)(c)) The applicant's construction activities are authorized through the issuance of a permit under § 10 of the ESA and that authorization addresses the effects of the applicant's storm 1 water discharge(s) and storm water discharge - related activities on listed species and critical habitat Applicants must follow FWS and /or NMFS procedures when F applying for an ESA Section 10 permit (see 50 CFR § 17.22(b)(1) (FWS) and § 222.22 (NMFS)).

Authorization must be terminated by submitting a Notice of Termination (NOT) on a form supplied by the executive director. Authorization to discharge under this permit terminates at midnight on the day the NOT is postmarked for delivery to the TCEQ. If electronic submission of the NOT is provided, authorization to discharge under this permit terminates immediately following confirmation of receipt of the NOT by the TCEQ. Compliance with the conditions and requirements of this permit is required until an NOT is submitted. 1. Notice of Termination Required The NOT must be submitted to TCEQ, and a copy of the NOT provided to the operator of any MS4 receiving the discharge, within thirty (30) days, after: (a) final stabilization has been achieved on all portions of the site that is the responsibility of the permittee: or (b) another permitted operator has assumed control over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized; and (c) all silt fences and othertemporary erosion controls have either been removed, scheduled for removal as defined in the SWP3, or transferred to a new operator if the new operator has sought permit coverage. Erosion controls that are designed to remain in place for an indefinite period, such as mulches and fiber mats, are not required to be removed or scheduled for removal. 2. Minimum Contents of the NOT The NOT form shall require, at a minimum, the following information: (a) if authorization was granted following submission of a NOI, the permittees site - specific TPDES general permit number for the construction site; Page 15 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (b) an indication of whether the construction activity is completed or if the permittee is simply no longer an operator at the site; (c) the name, address and telephone number of the permittee submitting the NOT; (d) the name (or other identifier), address, county, and latitude/longitude of the construction project or site; and (e) a signed certification that either all storm water discharges requiring authorization under this general permit will no longer occur, or that the applicant to terminate coverage is no longer the operator of the facility or construction site, and that all temporary structural erosion controls have either been removed, will be removed on a schedule defined in the SWP3, or transferred to a new operator if the new operator has applied for permit coverage. Erosion controls that are designed to remain in place for an indefinite period, such as mulches and fiber mats, are not required to be removed or scheduled for removal. Section F. Waivers from Coverage The executive director may waive the otherwise applicable requirements of this general permit for storm water discharges from small construction activities under the terms and conditions described in this section. 1. Waiver Applicability and Coverage Operators of'small construction activities may apply for and receive a waiver from the requirements to obtain authorization under this general permit where: (a) the calculated rainfall erosivity R factor for the entire period of the construction project is less than five (5); (b) the operator submits a signed waiver certification form, supplied by the executive director, certifying that the construction activity will commence and be completed within a period when the value of the calculated rainfall erosivity R factor is less than five (5); and (c) the waiver certification form is submitted to the TCEQ at least two (2) days before construction activity begins. 2. Effective Date of Waiver Operators of small construction activities are provisionally waived from the otherwise applicable requirements of this general permit two (2) days from the date that a completed waiver certification form is postmarked for delivery to TCEQ. Page 16 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 3. Activities Extending Beyond the Waiver Period If a construction activity extends beyond the approved waiver period due to circumstances beyond the control of the operator, the operator must either: (a) recalculate the rainfall erosivity factor R factor using the original start date and a. new projected ending date, and if the R factor is still under five (5), submit a new waiver certification form at least two (2) days before the end of the original waiver period; or (b) obtain authorization under this general permit according to the requirements delineated in either Part II.D.2. or Part II.D.3. at least two (2) days before the end of the approved waiver period. Section G. Alternative TPDES Permit Coverage I. Individual Permit Alternative Any discharge eligible for coverage under this general permit may alternatively be authorized under an individual TPDES permit according to 30 TAC Chapter 305 (relating to Consolidated Permits). Applications for individual permit coverage should be submitted at least three hundred and thirty (330) days prior to commencement of construction activities to ensure timely issuance. 2. Individual Permit Required The executive director may suspend an authorization or NOI in accordance with the procedures set forth in 30 TAC Chapter 205, including the requirement that the executive director provide written notice to the permittee. The executive director may require an operator of a construction site, otherwise eligible for authorization under this general permit, to apply for an individual TPDES permit because of: (a) the conditions of an approved TMDL or TMDL implementation plan; (b) the activity is determined to cause a violation of water quality standards or is found to cause, or contribute to, the loss of a designated use of surface water in the state: and (c) any other considerations defined in 30 TAC Chapter 205 would include the provision at 30 TAC § 205.4(c)(3)(D), which allows TCEQ to deny authorization under the general permit and require an individual permit if a discharger "has been determined by the executive director to have been out of compliance with any rule, order, or permit of the commission, including non - payment of fees assessed by the executive director." Page 17 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 3. Any discharge eligible for authorization under this general permit may alternatively be authorized under a separate, applicable general permit according to 30 TAC Chapter 205 (relating to General Permits for Waste Discharges). Section H. Permit Expiration This general permit shall be issued for a term not to exceed five (5) years. Following public notice and comment, as provided by 30 TAC § 205.3 (relating to Public Notice, Public Meetings, and Public Comment), the commission may amend, revoke, cancel, or renew this general permit. If the TCEQ publishes a notice of its intent to renew or amend this general permit before the expiration date, the permit will remain in effect for existing, authorized, discharges until the commission takes final action on the permit. Upon issuance of a renewed or amended permit, permittees may be required to submit an NOI within 90 days following the effective date of the renewed or amended permit, unless that permit provides for an alternative method for obtaining authorization. In the event that the general permit is not renewed, discharges that are authorized under the general permit must obtain either a TPDES individual permit or coverage under an alternative general permit. Part III. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWP3) Storm water pollution prevention plans must be prepared for storm water discharges that will reach Waters of the United States, including discharges to MS4 systems and privately owned separate storm sewer systems that drain to Waters of the United States, to identify and address potential sources of pollution that are reasonably expected to affect the quality of discharges from the construction site, including off -site material storage areas, overburden and stockpiles of dirt, borrow areas, equipment staging areas, vehicle repair areas, fueling areas, etc., used solely by the permitted project. The SWP3 must describe and ensure the implementation of practices that will be used to reduce the pollutants in storm water discharges associated with construction activity at the construction site and assure compliance with the terms and conditions of this permit. Individual operators at a site may develop separate SWP3s that cover only their portion of the project provided reference is made to the other operators at the site. Where there is more than one SWP3 for a site, permittees must coordinate to ensure that BMPs and controls are consistent, and do not negate or impair the effectiveness of each other. Regardless of whether a single comprehensive SWP3 is developed, or separate SWP3s are developed for each operator, it is the responsibility of each operator to ensure that compliance with the terms and conditions of this general permit is met in the areas of the construction site where that operator has operational control over construction plans and specifications or day -to -day operational control. Section A. Shared SWP3 Development For more effective coordination of BMPs and opportunities for cost sharing, a cooperative effort by the different operators at a site is encouraged. Operators must independently submit an NOI and obtain authorization, but may work together to prepare and implement a single comprehensive SWP3 for the entire construction site. Page 18 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 1. The SWP3 must clearly list the name and, for large construction activities, the general permit authorization numbers, for each operator that participates in the shared SWP3. Until the TCEQ responds to receipt of the NOI with a general permit authorization number, the SWP3 must specify the date that the NOI was submitted to TCEQ by each operator. Each participant in the shared plan must also sign the SWP3. 2. The SWP3 must clearly indicate which operator is responsible for satisfying each shared requirement of the SWP3. If the responsibility for satisfying a requirement is not described in the plan, then each permittee is entirely responsible for meeting the requirement within the boundaries of the construction site where they perform construction activities. The SWP3 must clearly describe responsibilities for meeting each requirement in shared or common areas. Section B. Responsibilities of Operators Operators with Control Over Construction Plans and Specifications All operators with operational control over construction plans and specifications to the extent necessary to meet the requirements and conditions of this general permit must: (a) ensure the project specifications allow or provide that adequate BMPs may be developed to meet the requirements of Part III of this general permit; (b) ensure that the SWP3 indicates the areas of the project where they have operational control over project specifications (including the ability to make modifications in specifications); (c) ensure all other operators affected by modifications in project specifications are notified in a timely manner such that those operators may modify best management practices as are necessary to remain compliant with the conditions of this general permit; and (d) ensure that the SWP3 for portions of the project where they are operators indicates the name and TPDES permit numbers for permittees with the day - to -day operational control over those activities necessary to ensure compliance with the SWP3 and other permit conditions. In the case that responsible parties have not been identified, the permittee with operational control over project specifications must be considered to be the responsible party until such time as the authority is transferred to another party and the plan its updated. Page 19 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 2. Operators with Day -to -Day Operational Control Operators with day -to -day operational control of those activities at a project that are necessary to ensure compliance with a SWP3 and other permit conditions must: (a) ensure that the SWP3 for portions of the project where they are operators meets the requirements of this general permit; (b) ensure that the SWP3 identifies the parties responsible for implementation of beast management practices described in the plan; (c) ensure that the SWP3 indicates areas of the project where they have operational control over day -to -day activities; (d) ensure that the SWP3 indicates, for areas where they have operational control over day -to -day activities, the name and TPDES permit number ofthe parties with operational control over project specifications (including the ability to make; modifications in specifications). Section C. Deadlines fir SWP3 Preparation and Compliance 1. The SWP3 must be: (a) completed prior to obtaining authorization under this general permit; (b) implemented prior to commencing construction activities that result in soil disturbance; (c) updated as necessary to reflect the changing conditions of new operators, new areas of responsibility, and changes in best management practices; and (d) prepared so that it provides for compliance with the terms and conditions of this general permit. Section D. Plan Review and Making Plans Available The SWP3 must be retained on -site at the construction site or, if the site is inactive or does not have an on -site location to store the plan, a notice must be posted describing the location of the SWP3. The SWP3 must be made readily available at the time of an on -site inspection to: the executive director; a federal, state, or local agency approving sediment and erosion plans, grading plans, or storm water management: plans; local government officials; and the operator of a municipal separate storm sewer receiving discharges from the site. Operators of a large construction activity obtaining authorization to discharge through submission of a NOI must post a notice near the main entrance of the Page 20 TPDES General Permit TXRI50000 construction site. If the construction project is a linear construction project (e.g. pipeline, highway, etc.), the notice must be placed in a publicly accessible location near where construction is actively underway. Notice for these linear sites may be relocated, as necessary, along the length of the project. The notice must be readily available for viewing by the general public, local, state, and federal authorities, and contain the following information: (a) the TPDES general permit number for the project (or a copy of the NOI that was submitted to the TCEQ if a permit number has not yet been assigned); (b) the name and telephone number of a representative for the operator; (c) a brief description of the project; and (d) the location of the SWP3. 3. This permit does not provide the general public with any right to trespass on a construction site for any reason, including inspection of a site; nor does this permit require that permittees allow members of the general public access to a construction site. Section E. Keeping Plains Current The permittee must revise or update the storm water pollution prevention plan whenever: there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance that has a significant effect on the discharge of pollutants and that has not been previously addressed in the SWP3; or 2. results of inspections or investigations by site operators, operators of a municipal separate storm sewer system receiving the discharge, authorized TCEQ personnel, or a federal, estate or local agency approving sediment and erosion plans indicate the SWP3 is proving ineffective in eliminating or significantly minimizing pollutants in discharges authorized under this general permit. Section F. Contents of SWP3 The SWP3 must include, at a minimum, the information described in this section. 1. A site description, or project description must be developed to include: (a) a description of the nature of the construction activity, potential pollutants and sources; (b) a description of the intended schedule or sequence of major activities that will disturb soils for major portions of the site; Page 21 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (c) the total number of acres of the entire property and the total number of acres where construction activities will occur, including off -site material storage areas„ overburden and stockpiles of dirt, and borrow areas; (d) data describing the soil or the quality of any discharge from the site; (e) a map showing the general location of the site (e.g. a portion of a city or county map); (f) a detailed site map (or maps) indicating the following: (i) drainage patterns and approximate slopes anticipated after major grading activities; (ii) areas where soil disturbance will occur; (iii) locations of all major structural controls either planned or in place; (iv) locations where stabilization practices are expected to be used; (v) locations of off -site material, waste, borrow, fill, or equipment storage areas; (vi) surface waters (including wetlands) either adjacent or in close proximity; and (vii) locations where storm water discharges from the site directly to a surface water body. (g) the location and description of asphalt plants and concrete plants providing support to the construction site and authorized under this general permit; (h) the name of receiving waters at or near the site that will be disturbed or that will receive discharges from disturbed areas of the project; and (i) a copy of this TPDES general permit. 2. The SWP3 must describe the best management practices that will be used to minimize pollution in runoff. The description must identify the general timing or sequence for implementation. At a minimum, the description must include the following components: (a) Erosion and Sediment Controls (i) Erosion and sediment controls must be designed to retain sediment on -site to the extent practicable with consideration for local Page 22 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 topography, soil type, and rainfall. Controls must also be designed and utilized to reduce the offsite transport of suspended sediments and other pollutants if it is necessary to pump or channel standing water from the site. (ii) Control measures must be properly selected, installed, and maintained according to the manufacturer's or designer's specifications. If periodic inspections or other information indicates a control has been used incorrectly, or that the control is performing inadequately, the operator must replace or modify the control as soon as practicable after discovery that the control has been used incorrectly, is performing inadequately, or is damaged. (iii) Sediment must be removed from sediment traps and sedimentation ponds no later than the time that design capacity has been reduced by 50 %. (iv) If sediment escapes the site, accumulations must be removed at a frequency to minimize further negative effects, and whenever feasible, prior to the next rain event. (v) Controls must be developed to limit, to the extent practicable, offsite transport of litter, construction debris, and construction materials. (b) Stabilization Practices The SWP3 must include a description of interim and permanent stabilization practices for the site, including a schedule of when the practices will be implemented. Site plans should ensure that existing vegetation is preserved where it is possible. (i) Stabilization practices may include but are not limited to: establishment of temporary vegetation, establishment of permanent vegetation, mulching, geotextiles, sod stabilization, vegetative buffer strips, protection of existing trees and vegetation, and other similar measures. (ii) The following records must be maintained and either attached to or referenced in the SWP3, and made readily available upon request to the parties in Part III.D.I of this general permit: (a) the dates when major grading activities occur; (b) the dates when construction activities temporarily or permanently cease on a portion of the site; and Page 23 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (c) the dates when stabilization measures are initiated. (iii) Stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable in portions of the site where construction activities have temporarily or permanently ceased, and except as provided in (a) through (c) below, must be initiated no more than fourteen (14) days after the construction activity in that portion of the site has temporarily or permanently ceased. (a) Where the initiation of stabilization measures by the 14th day after construction activity temporarily or permanently ceased is precluded by snow cover or frozen ground conditions, stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable. (b) Where construction activity on a portion of the site is temporarily ceased, and earth disturbing activities will be resumed within twenty -one (2 1) days, temporary stabilization measures do not have to be initiated on that portion of site. (c) In arid areas (areas with an average rainfall of 0 to 10 inches), semiarid areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 10 to 20 inches), and areas experiencing droughts where the initiation of stabilization measures by the 14th day after construction activity has temporarily or permanently ceased is precluded by seasonably and conditions, stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable. Structural Control Practices The SWP3 must include a description of any structural control practices used to divert flows away from exposed soils, to limit the contact of runoff with disturbed areas, or to lessen the off -site transport of eroded soils. (a) Sediment basins are required, where feasible for common drainage locations that serve an area with ten (10) or more acres disturbed at one time, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin that provides storage for a calculated volume of runoff from a 2 -year, 24 -hour storm from each disturbed acre drained, or equivalent control measures, shall be provided where attainable until final stabilization of the site. Where rainfall data is not available or a calculation cannot be performed, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained is required where attainable until final stabilization of the site. When calculating the volume of runoff from a 2 -year, 24 -hour storm event, it is not required to include the flows from offsite areas and flow from onsite areas that are either undisturbed or have already undergone final stabilization, if Page 24 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 these flows are diverted around both the disturbed areas of the site and the sediment basin. In determining whether installing a sediment basin is feasible, the permittee may consider factors such as site soils, slope, available area on site, public safety, precipitation patterns, site geometry, site vegetation, infiltration capacity, geotechnical factors, depth to groundwater and other similar considerations. Where sediment basins are not feasible, equivalent control measures, which may include a series of smaller sediment basins, must be used. At a minimum, silt fences, vegetative buffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries (and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions) of the construction area. (b) Sediment traps and sediment basins may also be used to control solids in storm water runoff for drainage locations serving less than ten (10) acres. At a minimum, silt fences, vegetative buffer strips, or equivalent sediment controls are required for all down slope boundaries (and for those side slope boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual site conditions) of the construction. Alternatively, a sediment basin that provides storage for a calculated volume of runoff from a 2 -year, 24 -hour storm from each disturbed acre drained, or equivalent control measures, may be provided or where rainfall data is not available or a calculation cannot be performed, a temporary (or permanent) sediment basin providing 3,600 cubic feet of storage per acre drained may be provided. 4. Permanent Storm Water Controls A description of any measures that will be installed during the construction process to control pollutants in storm water discharges that will occur after construction operations have been completed must be included in the SWP3. Permittees are only responsible for the installation and maintenance of storm water management measures prior to final stabilization of the site or prior to submission of an NOT. 5. Other Controls (a) Off -site vehicle tracking of sediments and the generation of dust must be minimized. (b) The SWP3 must include a description of construction and waste materials expected to be stored on -site and a description of controls to reduce pollutants from these materials. (c) The SWP3 must include a description of pollutant sources from areas other than construction (including storm water discharges from dedicated asphalt plants and dedicated concrete plants), and a description of controls and measures that will be implemented at those sites to minimize pollutant discharges. Page 25 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 (d) Velocity dissipation devices shall be placed at discharge locations and along the length of any outfall channel to provide a non - erosive flow velocity from the structure to a water course so that the natural physical and biological characteristics and functions are maintained and protected. 6. Approved State and Local Plans (a) Permittees must ensure the SWP3 is consistent with requirements specified in applicable sediment and erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by federal, state, or local officials. (b) SWP3s must be updated as necessary to remain consistent with any changes applicable to protecting surface water resources in sediment erosion site plans or site permits, or storm water management site plans or site permits approved by state or local official for which the permittee receives written notice. 7. Maintenance All erosion and sediment control measures and other protective measures identified in the SWP3 must be maintained in effective operating condition. If through inspections the permittee determines that BMPs are not operating effectively, maintenance must be performed before the next anticipated storm event or as necessary to maintain the continued effectiveness of storm water controls. If maintenance prior to the next anticipated storm event is impracticable, maintenance must be scheduled and accomplished as soon as practicable. Erosion and sediment controls that have been intentionally disabled, run -over, removed, or otherwise rendered ineffective must be replaced or corrected immediately upon discovery. Inspections of Controls In the event of flooding or other uncontrollable situations which prohibit access to the inspection sites, inspections must be conducted as soon as access is practicable (a) Personnel provided by the permittee and familiar with the SWP3 must inspect disturbed areas of the construction site that have not been finally stabilized, areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation, and structural controls for evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants entering the drainage system. Sediment and erosion control measures identified in the SWP3 must be inspected to ensure that they are operating correctly. Locations where vehicles enter or exit the site must be inspected for evidence of off -site sediment tracking. Inspections must be conducted at least once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within twenty four (;24) hours of the end of a storm event of 0.5 inches or greater. Page 26 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 Where sites have been finally or temporarily stabilized, where runoff is unlikely due to winter conditions (e.g. site is covered with snow, ice, or frozen ground exists), or during seasonal and periods in and areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 0 to 10 inches) and semi -arid areas (areas with an average annual rainfall of 10 to 20 inches), inspections must be conducted at least once every month. As an alternative to the above - described inspection schedule of once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within twenty four (24) hours of a storm evens: of 0.5 inches or greater, the SWP3 may be developed to require that these inspections will occur at least once every seven (7) calendar days. If this alternative schedule is developed, the inspection must occur on a specifically defined day, regardless of whether or not there has been a rainfall evens: since the previous inspection. (b) Utility line installation, pipeline construction, and other examples of long, narrow, linear construction activities may provide inspection personnel with limited access to the areas described in Part III.F.8.(a) above. Inspection of these areas could require that vehicles compromise temporarily or even permanently stabilized areas, cause additional disturbance of soils, and increase the potential for erosion. In these circumstances, controls must be inspected at least once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within twenty four (24) hours of the end of a storm event of 0.5 inches, but representative inspections may be performed. For representative inspections, personnel must inspect controls along the construction site for 0.25 mile above and below each access point where a roadway, undisturbed right -of -way, or other similar feature intersects the construction site and allows access to the areas described in Part III.F.8.(a) above. The conditions of the controls along each inspected 0.25 mile segment may be considered as representative of the condition of controls along that reach extending from the end of the 0.25 mile segment to either the end of the next 0.25 mile inspected segment, or to the end of the project, whichever occurs first. As an alternative to the above - described inspection schedule of once every fourteen (14) calendar days and within twenty four (24) hours of a storm evens: of 0.5 inches or greater, the SWP3 may be developed to require that these inspections will occur at least once every seven (7) calendar days. If this alternative schedule is developed, the inspection must occur on a specifically defined day, regardless ofwhether or not there has been a rainfall evens: since the previous inspection. (c) The SWP3 must be modified based on the results of inspections, as necessary, to better control pollutants in runoff. Revisions to the SWP3 must be completed within seven (7) calendar days following the inspection. If existing BMPs are modified or if additional BMPs are necessary, an implementation schedule must be described in the SWP3 and wherever Page 27 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 possible those changes implemented before the next storm event. If implementation before the next anticipated storm event is impracticable, these changes must be implemented as soon as practicable. (d) A report summarizing the scope of the inspection, names and qualifications of personnel making the inspection, the dates of the inspection, and major observations relating to the implementation of the SWP3 must be made and retained as part of the SWP3. Major observations should include: The locations of discharges of sediment or other pollutants from the site; locations of BMPs that need to be maintained; locations of BMPs that failed to operate as designed or proved inadequate for a particular location; and locations where additional BMPs are needed. Actions taken as a result of inspections must be described within, and retained as a part of, the SWP3. Reports must identify any incidents of non- compliance. Where a report does not identify any incidents of non- compliance, the report must contain a certification that the facility or site is in compliance with the SWP3 and this permit. The report must be signed by the person and in the manner required by 30 TAC § 305.128 (relating to Signatories to Reports) 9. The SWP3 must identify and ensure the implementation of appropriate pollution prevention measures for all eligible non -storm water components of the discharge. Part IV. Numeric Effluent Limitations Section A. Limitations All discharges of storm water runoff from concrete batch plants that qualify for coverage, and that are authorized to discharge storm water under the provisions of this general permit must be monitored at the following monitoring frequency and comply with the following numeric effluent limitations: Parameter Total Suspended Solids Oil and Grease pH * If discharge occurs. Section B. Reporting Requirements Limitations Monitoring Daily Maximum Frequency 65 mg/l I/Year* 15 mg/1 I/Year* between 6 and 9 standard units 1/Year* Results of monitoring for determining compliance with numeric effluent limitations must be recorded on a discharge monitoring report (DMR). The DMR must either be an original EPA No. 3320 -1 form (Attachment 3 ofthis general permit), a duplicate of the form, or as otherwise provided by the executive director. Monitoring must be conducted prior to December 31" for each annual Page 28 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 monitoring period. A cop), of the DMR must either be retained at the facility or shall be made readily available for review by authorized TCEQ personnel upon request, by March 3 V following the end of each annual monitoring period. If the results indicate the violation of one or more of these numeric limitations, the permittee must also submit the DMR to the TCEQ's Information Resources Center (MC 212) by March 31' of each annual monitoring period. Part V. Retention of Records The permittee must retain the following records for a minimum period of three (3) years from the date that a NOT is submitted as required by Part II.D. For activities that are not required to submit an NOT, records shall be retrained for a minimum period of three (3) years from the date that either: final stabilization has been achieved on all portions of the site that is the responsibility of the permittee; or another permitted operator has assumed control according to over all areas of the site that have not been finally stabilized. Records include: I . A copy of the SWP3 plan. 2. All reports and actions required by this permit, including a copy of the construction site notice. 3. All data used to complete the NOI, if an NOI is required for coverage under this general permit. Part VI. Standard Permit Conditions The permittee has a duty to comply with all permit conditions. Failure to comply with any permit condition is a violation of the permit and statutes under which it was issued, and is grounds for enforcement action, for terminating coverage under this general permit, or for requiring a discharger to apply for and obtain an individual TPDES permit. 2. Authorization under this general permit may be suspended or revoked for cause. Filing a notice of planned changes or anticipated non - compliance by the permittee does not stay any permit condition. The permittee must furnish to the executive director, upon request and within a reasonable time, any information necessary for the executive director to determine whether cause exists for revoking, suspending, or terminating authorization under this permit. Additionally, the permittee must provide to the executive director, upon request, copies of all records that the permittee is required to maintain as a condition of this general permit. It is not a defense for a discharger in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity to maintain compliance with the permit conditions. 4. Inspection and entry shall be allowed under Texas Water Code Chapters 26 -28, Health and Safety Code §§ 361.032 - 361.033 and 361.037, and 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 122.41(i). The statement in Texas Water Code § 26.014 that commission entry of a facility shall occur according to an establishment's rules and regulations concerning safety, internal security, and fire protection is not grounds for denial or restriction of entry to any part of the Page 29 TPDES General Permit TXR150000 facility or site, but merely describes the commission's duty to observe appropriate rules and regulations during an inspection. 5. The discharger is subject to administrative, civil, and criminal penalties, as applicable, under Texas Water Code §§ 26.136, 26.212, and 26.213 for violations including but not limited to the following: a. negligently or knowingly violating CWA, §§ 301, 302, 306, 307, 308, 318, or 405, or any condition or limitation implementing any sections in a permit issued under CWA, § 402, or any requirement imposed in a pretreatment program approved under CWA, §§ 402(a)(3) or 402(b)(8); b. knowingly making any false statement, representation, or certification in any record or other document submitted or required to be maintained under a permit, including monitoring reports or reports of compliance or noncompliance. 6. All reports and other information requested by the executive director must be signed by the person and in the manner required by 30 TAC § 305.128 (relating to Signatories to Reports). 7. Authorization under this general permit does not convey property or water rights of any sort and does not grant any exclusive privilege. Part VII. Fees Section A. Application Fees An application fee of $100 must be submitted with each NOI for coverage of a large construction activity. A fee is not required for submission of an NOT or NOC letter. Section B. Water Quality Fees Large construction activities authorized under this general permit must pay an annual Water Quality Fee of $100 under Texas Water Code 26.0291 and according to TAC Chapter 205 (relating to General Permits for Waste Discharges).
