Best management practices for industrial <br />facility permittees <br />Industrial facilities can use best management practices during construction of the <br />facility and when operating the facility. Best management practices are schedules of <br />activities. prohibitions of practices, maintenance procedures, and other management <br />practices to prevent or reduce pollution entering CDOT's storm drain system. SMPs also <br />include treatment, operating procedures, and practices to control site runoff, spillage or <br />leaks, waste disposal, or drainage from material storage. BMPe include structural and <br />nonstructural controls. <br />Resources for SMPs during construction of a facility <br />• EPA Storm Water Phase It Menu of SMP's <br />hitp: c ? e a.grv;'npdcs/sG 7r;.vat, ,nenuitrimpsn?d;•t.ti <br />• International Stormwater BMP Database <br />maw. ti Tr df.'y..$e-arg <br />• International Erosion Control Association <br />w?;:s.rcYt.: ?;es,urceslTSftrcr:cruz;;;;•c•rrtCurrtr?lJS<, <br />Resources for SMPs during operation of a facility <br />• industrial and Commercial Handbook <br />w:i:s.c=!•r, '.erxiboaks.eom.lndust^,a?. are <br />• Industrial Facilities Best Management Practices <br />w•wx a. -.? ^.? -? ruv.ca. usrptv.'S tc!,r. ,Y2.e'rOQ•7/Attl6.pa/ <br />rrarr! <br />w. <br />ron"vu TPUM ksrrakow <br />nea+rkrrw? sosrmr <br />RUN"* Ruff esters the staAtMsn 3PO W, who a <br />dtww bw tk rwslontor System S* waur rumalt <br />drssa is vaWrwns urArutK <br />Why is stormwater runoff a <br />problem? <br />Stormwater can pick up debris, <br />chemicals, dirt, and other pollutants <br />and flow into CDOT's storm drain <br />system or directly into a stream, river, <br />lake, wetland, or reservoir. Anything <br />that enters CDOT's storm drain <br />system is discharged untreated into <br />the waterways we use for fishing. <br />swimming, and providing drinking <br />water. <br />1 <br />CDO 1 has a permit from the Colorado Department <br />of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE) to <br />discharge stormwater from its storm drain system. The <br />permit states that only stormwater (and a few other <br />allowable discharges like landscape irrigation overflow) <br />can be discharged from CDOTs storm drain system. <br />Pollutants, such as dirt; fertilizers; pesticides; and oil <br />and grease, antifreeze; and other automotive fluids are <br />strictly prohibited from being disposed of in CDOTs <br />storm drain system. <br />As part of the permit, CDOT has several different <br />programs to prevent pollutants from entering the storm <br />drain system. The programs are. <br />• Construction sites program <br />• New development and redevelopment program <br />• Illicit discharges program <br />• Industrial facilities program <br />• Public education and involvement program <br />• Pollution prevention and good housekeeping <br />program <br />What is stormwater runoff? <br />Stormwater runoffookxas when <br />precipitation from rain or snowmek <br />flows over the ground. Impervious <br />surfaces like roads and sidewalks <br />prevent stormwater from naturally <br />soaking into the ground. <br />• Besf Management Practices Tor Industrial Storm water Pbllution Control <br />wwn.er?.srxcunty.rrcUDrcu,rents %r?cvSarrarnento".cfl <br />Irnie,stn;e'a2?3,'.1F°v2QA?anus"_2?':r:r rd/ <br />• Wet weather monitoring program
