CRP.RUKF.F..S11?IP • ~ :;\Gl l' 13. 1997 <br />1.0 L~ITRODUCTIOti <br />It is the intention of the ownership/management of the BIvfI-France Canon City Plant's Cherokee <br />Clay Pit to fully comply with the requirements of the Clean Water Act Amendments of 1987. <br />These amendments established a framework for regulating industrial stormwater into Colorado <br />surface waters. <br />The following Stormwater Management Plan establishes procedures that will allow the Canon <br />City Plant's Cherokee Clay Pit to meet these requirements. _ <br />The Cherokee Clay Pit contains a special clay that is mined and used as a constituent for <br />refractory shapes and bulk products. These products are manufactured at the Canon City Facility <br />for BMI-France. Approximately 1000 tons of this clay is mined, stockpiled and transported to the <br />Canon City facility each yeaz. This clay material is stockpiled and transported to the Canon City <br />facility to provide enough raw material for one year's production. The Cherokee Pit and <br />stockpile are disturbed (a maximum) of once per yeaz. The total azea of land where the Cherokee <br />Pit is located contains approximately 40.0 acres and is located 15 miles southeast of Canon City, <br />Colorado. <br />2.0 STORiVIWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN <br />Potential Pollrriant Cmrrcer/Material Inventory- <br />The mined clay is removed by stripping the material from the sides and bottom of the pit, <br />stockpiling this material on the northwest portion of the pit. The stockpile is then removed from <br />the pit and transported to the Canon City Plant. The stripping of the pit and stockpiling/removing <br />of the clay material presents a potential sediment pollutant source. The haul road (approximately <br />100 feet) is an additional potential sediment pollutant source. <br />Storrmvater Management wality Control' <br />Storrmvater Mairagemerrt Plan Administrator: <br />The Stormwater Management Plan Administrator at this location is Bradley Muelller, Quality <br />Assurance Manager.
