Section 6: Compliance with Other Applicable Requirements

6.1 Endangered Species Protection

Under which criterion is project eligible for Endangered Species coverage under the NPDES permit (EPA)?

~A OB De On OE

Criterion A.

Criterion B.

Criterion C

Criterion D.

No federally-listed threatened or endangered species or their designated critical habitat(s) are likely to occur in your site's "action area" as defined in Appendix A of EPA permit.

The construction site's discharges and discharge-related activities were already addressed in another operator's valid certification of eligibility for your action area under eligibility Criterion A, C, D, E, or F and there is no reason to believe that federally-listed species or federally-designated critical habitat not considered in the prior certification may be present or located in the "action area". To certify your eligibility under this Criterion, there must be no lapse ofNPDES permit coverage in the other operator's certification.

By certifying eligibility under this Criterion, you agree to comply with any effluent limitations or conditions upon which the other operator's certification was based. You must include in your NOI the tracking number from the other operator's notification of authorization under this permit. If your certification is based on another operator's certification under Criterion C, you must provide EPA with the relevant supporting information required of existing dischargers in Criterion C in the EPA NOI form.

Federally-listed threatened or endangered species or their designated critical habitat(s) are likely to occur in or near your site's "action area," and your site's discharges and discharge-related activities are not likely to adversely affect listed threatened or endangered species or critical habitat. This determination may include consideration of any stormwater controls and/or management practices you will adopt to ensure that your discharges and discharge-related activities are not likely to adversely affect listed species and critical habitat. To make this certification, you must include the following in your NOI: 1) any federally listed species and/or designated habitat located in your "action area"; and 2) the distance between your site and the listed species or designated critical habitat (in miles). You must also include a copy of your site map with the

NOL

Coordination between you and the Services has been concluded. The coordination must have addressed the effects of your site's discharges and discharge-related activities on federally-listed threatened or endangered species and federally-designated critical habitat, and must have resulted in a written concurrence from the relevant Service(s) that your site's discharges and discharge-related activities are not likely to adversely affect listed species or critical habitat. You must include copies of the

[16]

Criterion E.

Criterion F.

correspondence between yourself and the Services in your SWPPP and

NOL

Consultation between a Federal Agency and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and/or the National Marine Fisheries Service under section 7 of the ESA has been concluded. The consultation must have addressed the effects of the construction site's discharges and discharge-related activities on federally-listed threatened or endangered species and federally designated critical habitat. The result of this consultation must be either:

1. a biological opinion that concludes that the action in question (taking into account the effects of your site's discharges and discharge-related activities) is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of listed species, nor the destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat; or

IL written concurrence from the applicable Service(s) with a finding that the site's discharges and discharge-related activities are not likely to adversely affect federally-listed species or federally-designated habitat.

You must include copies of the correspondence between yourself and the Services in your SWPPP and NOL

Your construction activities are authorized through the issuance of a permit under section 10 of the ESA, and this authorization addresses the effects of the site's discharges and discharge-related activities on federally listed species and federally-designated critical habitat. You must include copies of the correspondence between yourself and the Services in your SWPPP and NOL

Support Documentation for Endangered Species criterion eligibility is filed in TAB 16.

[18]

7:

Note: Contractor and PE - if any additional control methods are put in place, or there are modifications to existing control methods, make notes in this section accordingly

Control measures at the construction site are selected, installed, implemented, and maintained to minimize pollutants in the discharge as necessary to meet applicable water quality standards.

The objectives of this SWPPP include:

• Stabilize the site as soon as possible (targeting the preparation and implementation of erosion and sediment controls to get the site to final grade, and either permanently or temporarily stabilize all bare soil areas as soon as possible).

• Perimeter controls will be installed before ground disturbing activities are initiated.

• Perimeter protection will remain in place until final stabilization has been achieved.

• Slopes and channels will be protected by conveying concentrated stormwater runoff around the top of slopes and stabilize slopes as soon as possible. A void disturbing natural channels and the vegetation along natural channels as much as possible.

• Divert stormwater coming on to the site by conveying it safely around, through, or under the work area. (Divert the clean water, trap the dirty water.)

• Protect receiving waters and other environmentally sensitive waters or areas adjacent to the site.

• Follow pollution prevention measures by providing proper containers for waste and garbage at the site. Store hazardous materials and chemicals so that they are not exposed to stormwater.

• Minimize the area and duration of exposed soils. Clear only land that will be under construction in the near future.

7.1 Natural Buffers or Equivalent Sediment Controls (Required for EPA CGP states only - ID, WA)

This section only applies if a surface water is located within 50 feet of the project's earth disturbing activities.

Are there any surface waters within 50 feet of the project's eaiih disturbances? No

If No, then no further documentation is required for the SWPPP.

NOTE: Reference EPA CGP appendix G for buffer guidance.

If Yes, check which natural buffer compliance alternative is used at the project site:

~ The project will provide and maintain a 50-foot wide undisturbed natural buffer.

7.9 Storm Drain Inlets and Culvert Inlets

Applicable for stormwater drain inlets which are connected to separate storm sewer systems (usually in urban locations) AND for culvert inlets that discharge stormwater from the project into surface waters.

Locations and design specifications of BMPs are shown on the erosion and sediment control plan sheets in TAB 6.

~ Not applicable to this project. Reason: Restoration Project

If applicable:

The following BMPs are applicable to:

D Ston11 Drain Inlets

D Culvert Inlets

Control measure: All existing culverts must be protected in place to maintain full functionality of existing drainage patterns. Storm water runoff from construction site must be passed through sediment control BMPs as indicated on erosion control plans, standard details, and compliant with NPDES-CGP permit.

Implementation: Install perimeter silt fence to intercept construction stormwater before discharging to receiving waterbody.

Maintenance requirements: Clean, or remove and replace, the protection measures as sediment accumulates, the filter fabric becomes clogged, and/or performance is compromised. Where there is evidence of sediment accumulation adjacent to the protection measure, Contractor must remove the deposited sediment by the end of the same work day in which it is found or by the end of the following work day if removal by the same work day is not feasible

Control measure: Drainage structures in areas where no work occurs will remain and will be protected. To prevent discharge of turbid water downstream, all existing catch basins located within the disturbance area will be protected with storm drain inlet protection. Proposed inlets will also be protected with catch basin inserts, and where feasible, their outlets will be temporarily plugged until the site is stabilized. The Contractor shall remove inlet protection at the end of the project without releasing captured sediment into the storm system.

Implementation: The inlet structures should be protected during construction to not allow sediment plug.

Maintenance requirements: Clean, or remove and replace, the protection measures as sediment accumulates, the filter becomes clogged, and/or performance is compromised. Where there is evidence of sediment accumulation adjacent to the inlet protection measure, remove the deposited sediment by the end of the same work day in which it is found or by the end of the following work day if removal by the same work day is not feasible.

Remove erosion and sediment control BMPs that are no longer needed and leave in good working order those BMPs that will remain at the construction site after close-out.

BMPs are no longer needed when the site that the BMP is protecting has reached final stabilization as defined in the applicable NPDES Stormwater Permit.

Final stabilization means:

• All ground disturbing activities at the site have been completed, AND

• Vegetation has been established that provides a uniform perennial vegetative cover with a density of 70% of the natural vegetative cover prior to construction.

• In arid (0-10" annual precipitation) or semiarid (10-20" annual precipitation) areas, final stabilization is considered to be achieved when the area is seeded or planted and vegetation is expected to provide 70% cover within 3 years; AND, erosion controls are in place that provide soil protection for at least 3 years without active maintenance.

Document arid/semi-arid conditions in SWPPP

• Effective non-vegetative stabilization is in-place such as rip rap, gabions, geotextiles, rock, aggregate etc.
