, PART 1 <br />Page No. T <br />Permit No. COG-85000( ~ <br />B. EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS <br />2. Stormwater Manaeement Plan (SWMPI (continued) <br />c. Erosion and Sediment Controls -Describe BMPs that will be used to reduce erosion and prevent sediment delivery to State = <br />waters. These should include stmctttml (such as silt fences, sediment ponds, drop structures, check dams) and non-I <br />structural (such as mulching and revegetation) methods. <br />Whenever a facility or a portion of a facility enters the volt-minine phase, it is likely that the overall configttration of the - <br />sitewill change considerably. Prior to the time when new vegetation becomes established, the surface azeas will be subject ~ <br />to potentially significant erosion. The perrnittee will need to take adequate measures in order to minimize this erosion as I <br />well as the erosion normally encountered during mining activities. <br />d. Identification of Dischazees outer than Stotmwater -The stormwater conveyance system on the site shall be evaluated for ~ <br />the presence ofdischazges other than stormwater, such as mine drainage, spoil springs, sanitary waste, or process water of <br />any kind.- The SWMP shall include a description of the results of any evaluation for the presence of dischazges other than ~ <br />stormwater, the method used, the date of the evaluation, and the on-site drainage points that were directly observed dtuing ~ <br />b) Facility Inspections <br />Qualified personnel identified by the operator shall make a comprehensive inspection of their stotmwater management system, at ~ <br />least twice per yeaz (in the spring and fall); except as provided in paragraphs d and e, below. These comprehensive inspections must' <br />be documented and s»>*+**+a*»ed in the Annual Report (see Part LD.2: of the pemdt). <br />1) Material handling azeas, disturbed azeas, azeas used for material storage that aze exposed to precipitation, and other potential <br />sources ofpollution identified in the SWMP in accordance with Part I.B.2.a)1) of this permit shall be inspected for evidence of, ~ <br />or the potential for, pollutants entering the drainage system Structural stormwater management measures, sediment and control <br />measures, and other stmctural pollution prevention measures identified in the plan shall be observed to ensure that they are ~ <br />~ . operating correctly. A visual inspection of equipment needed to implement the plan, such as spill response equipment, shall be ~ <br />• made. <br />2) Based on the results of the inspection, the description ofpotential pollutant sotrces and pollution prevention measures identified ! <br />in the plan shall be revised as appropriate within two weeks of such inspection. Such revisions shall provide for implementation' <br />of any changes to the plan in a timely manner, but in no case more than 90 days after the inspection. <br />3) A report st»*++++a*+~ing the scope of the inspection, personnel making the inspection, the date(s) of the inspection, malot . <br />observations relating to the implementation of the SWMP, and actions taken is accordance with pazagraph (b), above, shall be ~ <br />made and retained as part of the SWMP for at least three yeazs. The report shall be signed in accordance with Part I.D.7. of this ~ <br />pemtit. <br />4) Where semi-ammual site inspections are shown in the plan to be itttpractical for sites where an employee is not stationed ordoes - <br />notroutinely visit the site, inspections as regtred in this part shall be conducted at appropriate intervals specified in the plan, ~ <br />but never less than once in two yeazs. <br />5) Where semi-annual site inspections are shown in the plan to be impractical for inactive sites (sites where industrial activity is ne' <br />longer conducted), site inspections required by this part shall be conducted at appropriate intervals specified in the plan, but, in ~ <br />no case less than once in three years. At lease one site inspection required under this part shall be conducted before October 1, ~ <br />1999, or the date two yeazs aP.er such site becomes inactive, whichever is eazlier. <br />c) Additional SWMP Requirements <br />1) Signatory Requirements: A copy of the plan shall be signed in accordance with Part I.D.7. and retained on site <br />2) SWMP Review/Changes: Upon review of the SWMP, the Division may notify the pemrittee at any time that the plan does not <br />meet one or more of the minimumrequiretnents ofthis permit. After such notification, the permittee shall make changes to the <br />plan and shall submit to the Division an update to the plan including the requested changes. Unless otherv+ise provided by the <br />~ Division, the permittee shall have 30 days after such notification to both make the necessary changes to the plan and to <br />irttplement them. <br />
