Inspection Requirements for NPDES Compliance

EPA Construction General Permit Part 4 inspection requirements for NP DES compliance:

Inspection Frequency: You must conduct inspections in accordance with one of the two schedules listed below.

You must specify in your SWPPP which schedule you will be following.

1. At least once every 7 calendar days, OR

2. At least once every 14 calendar days and within 24 hours of the end of a storm event of O .5 inches or greater. (If this option is chosen, a rain gauge is required to be on-site: The SWPPP should also include a daily rainfall log.)

Case-by-Case Reductions in Inspection Freque1tcy: You may reduce your inspection frequency to at least once every month if: · ·

1. The entire site is temporarily stabilized, 2: Runoff is unlikely due to winter.conditions (e.g., site is covered with snow, ice, or the ground is frozen), or

3. Construction is· occurring during seasonal arid periods in arid areas and semi-arid areas.

Inspection Waiver for Frozen Conditions: A waiver of the inspection requirements is aviiilable until one month before thawing conditions are e;x.pected to result in a discharge if all of the following requirements are met:

· 1. The project is located in an area where frozen conditions are anticipated to continue for extended periods of time (i.e., more than one month);

2. Land disturbance activities have been suspended; and

3. The beginning and ending dates of the waiver period are documented in the SWPPP.

Qualified Personnel: Inspections must be .conducted by qualified personnel (provided by the operator or cooperatively by multiple operators). "Qualified personnel" means a person knowledgeable in the principles and practice of erosion and sediment controls who possesses the skills to assess conditions at the construction site that could impact stormwaterquality and to assess the effectiveness of any sediment and erosion control measures · selected to control the quality of storm water discharges from the construction activity. ·

Scope of Inspections: Inspections must include all areas of the site disturbed by construction activity and areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation. Inspectors must look for evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants entering the stormwater conveyance system. Sedimentation and erosion control measures must be observed to ensure proper operation. Discharge locations must be inspected to ascertain whether erosion control measures are effective in preventing significant impacts to waters of the United States, where accessible. Where discharge locations are inaccessible, nearby downstream locations must be inspected to the extent that such inspections .are practicable. Locations where vehicles enter or exit the site must be inspected for evidence of off-site sediment tracking.

All reports required by this permit, including tlie SWPPP, S.WPPP amendtitents, and i11spectio11 reports must be sig1ted by a person described in Appendix G, Subsection 11.A (below) or by a duly authorized representative of that person.

1. For a corporation: By a responsible corporate officer. For the purpose of this Part, a responsible corporate officer means: (i) a president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in charge .of a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy- 01: decision-making functions for the corporation, or (ii) the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or operafing facilities, provided, the manager is authorized to make management decisions Which govern the operation of the r~gulated facility including having the explicit or implicit duty of making major capital investment recommendations, and initiating and directing other comprehensive measures to assure long term environmental compliance with environmental laws and regulations; the manager can ensure that the necessary systems are established or actions taken to gather complete and accurate information for permit application requirements; and where authority to sign documents has been assigned or delegated to the manager in accordance with corporate procedures.

2. For a partnership· or sole proprietorship: By a general partner or the proprietor, respectivyly; or

· 3. For a municipality, state, federal, or other public agency: By either a principal executivy officer or ranking elected official. For purposes of this Part, a principal executive officer of a federal agency includes (i) the chief executive officer of the agency, or (ii) a senior executive officer having responsibility for the overall operations of a principal geographic unit ~fthe agency (e.g., Regional Administrator of EPA). · ·

A person is a duly authorized representative only if:

The authorization, is made in writing by a-person described in Appendix G, Subsection I I .A;

The authorization specifies either an individual or a position having responsibility for the overall operation of the regulated facility or activity such as the position of plant manager, operator of a well or a well field, superintendent, positfon of equivalent respon.sibility, or an individual or position having overall responsibility for environmental matters for the company. (A duly authorized representative may thus be either a named individual or any individual occupying a named position); and ·

The signed and dated written authorization is included in the SWPPP. A copy must be submitted to EPA, if requested. ·

IDENTIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION OF HISTORIC PROPERTY

The Columbia River Highway National Register District is located in the state of Oregon, along the south side of the Columbia River between the cities ofTroutdale (14.2 miles east of Portland) and The Dalles (88 miles east of Portland). The Columbia River Highway was the first modern highway in the Pacific Northwest and the first scenic highway in the United States. The road became a trunk route from Portland's large commercial center to eastern Oregon and points beyond. The highway's alignment remains true to the plan that Samuel C. Lancaster, Samuel Hill, and others envisioned for its original configuration.

The road was the pinnacle of early-20th-century rural highway design created to take visitors to the Columbia River Gorge's most breathtaking and beautiful natural wonders and scenic vistas. Construction on the Columbia River Highway took place from 1913 to 1922. The Keeper of the National Register listed the Columbia River Highway Historic District on December 12, 1983 (NRIS 83004168).

The nomination's preparer described the district as narrow and linear shaped. It runs 73.8 miles, the length of the original highway from the Sandy River to The Dalles. The nominated highway within that 73.8-mile distance is the extant 55 miles.

This is defined as "those portions which are still intact with observable engineering features of the original highway present (pavement, guard rails, retaining walls, bridges, viaducts, tunnels, pedestrian overlooks, and distinctive cuts and fills) Smaller fragments do exist and are included in the nominations area, but are not included in the calculations" (see sheet 10.8 of the NR nomination). All observable pieces of the Columbia River Highway within the project's Area of Potential Effect (APE are included within the nomination property. In addition, one structure within the APE is a contributing feature to the distri"t It is the Gorton Creek Bridge No. 00173, which dates from 1918.

The National Register nomination divided the Columbia River Highway Historic District into three sections. Section 1 included the road and contributing features from the Sandy River to Dodson (HMP 14.2 to 35.8). Section 2 included the road and contributing features from Dodson to Mosier (HMP 35.8 to 73.4). Section 3 included the road and contributing features from Mosier to The Dalles (HMP 73.4 to 88.0). The project is in Section 2, from HMP 52.69 to 57.0.
