Part I Page II of 22 <br />Permit No. COR-040000 <br />lS C. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN - INACTIVE MINES (cont.) <br />6. Consistency with Other Plans <br />SWMPs may reflect requirements for Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) plans under section 311 of the <br />CWA, or Best Management Practices (BMPs) Programs otherwise required by a CDPS permit, and may incorporate any part <br />of such plans into the SWMP by reference. The SWMP may reflect information contained in approved plans submitted for <br />other similar pollution control programs, including the Voluntary Clean Up Program, (Voluntary Cleanup and <br />Redevelopment Act, CRS 25-16-303) as long as they contain the elements described above. These plans must have been <br />approved by the implementing agency prior to application for the stormwater permit. Appropriate portions of these other <br />plans may be incorporated in the SWMP by reference, as long as a complete SWMP can be reproduced and submitted to the <br />requesting agency within the time frame specified in the request. Those portions of the referenced documents must be <br />included in the submittal. The SWMP must also be readily available to an on-site inspector. <br />D. BASIC TERMS AND CONDITIONS - ALL FACILITIES <br />General Limitations <br />The following limitations shall apply to all discharges authorized by this permit: <br />a. Stormwater discharges from mining operations or mine-waste remediation projects shall not cause or threaten to cause <br />pollution, contamination or degradation of State waters. <br />b. Bulk storage structures for petroleum products and any other chemicals shall have secondary containment or equivalent <br />adequate protection so as to contain all spills and prevent any spilled material from entering State waters. <br />0 c. No chemicals are to be added to the discharge unless permission for the use of a specific chemical is granted by the <br />Division. In granting the use of such chemicals, special conditions and monitoring may be addressed by separate letter. <br />d. All dischargers must comply with the lawful requirements of counties, drainage districts and other state or local agencies <br />regarding any discharges of stormwater to storm drain systems or other water courses under their jurisdiction. <br />2. SWMP Reauirements <br />The following conditions must be met to achieve compliance with this permit: <br />SWMP Preparation and Implementation: The SWMP shall be prepared prior to applying for coverage under the <br />general permit, and certification of completion submitted with the application. The SWMP shall be implemented <br />when the facility begins operation, or when the general permit certification is issued, whichever is later, and <br />updated as appropriate (see paragraph c., below). <br />b. SWMP Retention: For active mining operations, the plan shall be retained on site. For inactive mining operations, <br />the plan shall be retained by the permittee. <br />c. SWMP Review/Changes: <br />1) Division Review: The Division reserves the right to request and review the plans, and to require additional <br />measures to prevent and control pollution, as needed. Upon review of the SWMP, the Division may notify the <br />permittee at any time that the plan does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of this permit. After <br />such notification, the permittee shall make changes to the plan and shall submit to the Division an update to the <br />plan including the requested changes. Unless otherwise provided by the Division, the permittee shall have 30 days <br />after such notification to both make the necessary changes to the plan and to implement them. <br />If the Division determines that the permittee's discharges may cause, have the reasonable potential to cause, or <br />contribute to an excursion above any applicable water quality standard, the Division may require the permittee, <br />within a specified time period, to develop and implement a supplemental BMP action plan describing SWMP <br />modifications to adequately address the identified water quality concerns.
