PARTI <br />Permit - Page 15 of 23 <br />Permit No. COR-340000 <br />D. TERMINATION OF PERMIT COVERAGE (cont.) <br />b. Termination in the Absence of CDRMS Permit: For facilities without CDRMS permits, certification under <br />this permit may be terminated once the following criteria have been met for the entire mine site, including any <br />on-site disposal areas: <br />1) all raw materials, intermediate products, byproducts, finished products and waste products have been <br />removed or permanently isolated from stormwater; <br />2) all soil disturbing activities at the site have been completed; <br />3) the site has been stabilized (with little evidence of soil erosion or other runoff problem); and <br />4) vegetation has been established with an average cover or density, over the previously disturbed area, of a <br />minimum of 40 percent vegetative cover over the area, or 70 percent of the vegetative cover of a similar <br />undisturbed site, whichever is higher (vegetative cover or density determinations need not be determined <br />scientifically by extensive measurement and statistical analyses; simple representative transects are <br />adequate.); or equivalent permanent physical erosion reduction methods have been employed. <br />The Division may, after consultation with the permittee and upon good cause being shown, revise the vegetative cover <br />requirements on a case-by-case basis. <br />2. Request for Termination <br />When a site has been reclaimed in accordance with the CDRMS requirements and the site has been released from State <br />reclamation requirements, or the above Termination Criteria have been met, the permittee may request certification <br />termination. The Division will consider termination of permit coverage when: <br />a. The permittee has submitted a completed Inactivation Form as provided by the Division which summarizes the <br />work accomplished; <br />In the case of termination in absence of a CDRMS permit (Part I.D. I b, above), the permittee has submitted <br />photographic documentation of the post reclamation conditions at the mine site; <br />All stormwater discharges to state waters associated with mining activities have ceased and the permittee has <br />demonstrated to the Division the termination criteria have been met or the CDRMS performance bond has been <br />released; <br />d. The Division finds that the permittee has shown reasonable grounds consistent with the Federal and State <br />statutes and regulations for such termination; and <br />e. Fee requirements of Section 61.15 of State Discharge Permit System Regulations have been met. <br />Continued coverage may be required after reclamation has been completed if the Division has shown or has reason to <br />suspect that the stormwater discharges may contribute to a violation of a water quality standard. <br />E. DEFINITIONS <br />Best Management Practices (BMPs): schedules of activities, prohibitions of practices, maintenance procedures, and <br />other management practices to prevent or reduce the pollution of waters of the State. BMPs also include treatment <br />requirements, operating procedures, pollution prevention, and practices to control site runoff, spillage or leaks, waste <br />disposal, or drainage from material storage. <br />2. Day: For purposes of this permit, all deadline references to "day" refer to a calendar day. <br />Dedicated asphalt plants and concrete plants: portable asphalt plants and concrete plants that are located at a <br />mining site and that provide materials only to that specific site.
