PART II Permit - Page 35 Pennit No. COR -030000 VIII. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERMIT (cont.) Master SWMP Often, a lenge construction project will involve multiple smaller construction sites that are within a common plan gf'development, or multiple well pads under construction within an oil and gas well field. Pollutant sources and the types of BMPs used can be relatively consistent in such cases. A permittee could significantly streamline the SWMP development process through the use of a master SWMP. SWMP information must be developed and maintained for all construction activities that exceed one acre (or are part of a common plan of development exceeding one acre) conducted within the permitted area, By developing a single master plan, the permittee can eliminate the need to develop repetitive information in separate plans. Such a plan could include two sections, one containing a reference section with information applicable to all sites (e.g., installation details and maintenance requirements for many standard BMPs, such as silt fence and erosion blankets), and the second containing all of'the information specific to each site (e.g., site BMP map, drainage plans, details, for BMPs requiring site ,specific design, such as retention ponds). As new activities begin, information required in the SWMP is added to the plan, and as areas become finally stabilized, the related information is removed. Records of information related to areas that have been finally stabilized that are removed from the active plan must be maintained for a period of'at least three years from the date that the associated site is finally stabilized. C. Tp► IMaxinnnrr Daily -L C7'MDL1 If'the designated use of a stream or water body has been impaired by the presence of a pollutant(s), development of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) may be required. A TMDL is an estimate of allowable loading in the waterbody for the pollutant in question. Types of discharges that are or have the potential to be a significant source of the pollutant are also identified. If a TMDL has been approved for anv waterbody into which the permittee discharges, and stormwater discharges associated with construction activity have been assigned a pollutant -specific Wasteload Allocation (WLA) under the TMDL, the Division will either: I. Notify the permittee of the TMDL, and amend the permittee's certification to add specific BMPs and/or other requirements, as appropriate; or 2. Ensure that the TMDL is being implemented properly through alternative local requirements, such as by a municipal stormwater permit. (The only current example of this is the Cherry Creek Reservoir Control Regulation (72. 0), which mandates that municipalities within the basin require specific BMPs for construction sites.) See Part ID. II of the permit for f trther information. D. Monitorin� Sampling and testing ofstormwater for specific parameters is not required on a routine basis under this permit. However, the Division reserves the right to require sampling and testing on a case-by-case basis, in the event that there is reason to suspect that compliance with the SWMP is a problem, or to measure the effectiveness of the BMPs in removing pollutants in the effluent. See Part I.D. I (e) of the permit. E. 1 cilil hrs ec Jr)1tY Construction sites typically must inspect their stormwater management controls at least every 14 days and within 24 hours after the end of any precipitation or snowmelt event that causes surface erosion. At sites or portions of sites where ground -disturbing construction has been completed but a vegetative cover- has not been established, these inspections mast occur at least once per month. (At sites where persistent snow cover conditions exist, inspections are not required during the period that melting conditions do not exist. These
