Inspection Requirements for NPDES Compliance

EPA Construction General Permit Part 4 inspection requirements for NPDES 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 0.5 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 Frequency: You may reduce your inspection frequency to at least once every month if: · ·

I . 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 av~ilable until one month before thawing conditions are e.xpected to result in a discharge if all of the following requirements are met:

· I. 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 stormwater quality and t9 assess the effectiveness of any sediment and erosion control measures · selected to control the quality of stormwater disch~rges from the construction activity. . ·

Scope of Inspections: Inspections must include all areas of the site disturbed by construction activity and areas used for storage ofm~terials 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.

A// .reports required by this permit, including th·e SWPPP, S.WPPP amendments, and inspection reports must be signed 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- or decision-making functions for the corporation, or (ii) the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or operating facilities, provided, the manager is authorized to make management decisions which govern the operation of the regulated 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 en8ure 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, respectiv~ly; 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 responsibility, 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. ·

Site-specific BMPs

• BMP - Describe and give the /~cation of the structural and non-structural BMPs identified in your SWPPP in the BMP column below (add as many BMPs as necessary on the continuation sheets. Include areas that are required to be inspected by the CGP, such as material storage areas that are exposed to precip"itation.

• BMP Installed.:__ If a BMP should be installed at the current phase of the project and you marked "No" in the "BMP Installed" column, then you must check "Yes" in the "BMP Action Required?" column

• BMPAction Required? - .If a BMP needs repair, modification, replacement, maintenance or a new BMP is needed or a SWPPP amendment is needed, then a BMP Action is required.

• BMP Action Required, Complete by Date - Before certifying the report, fill in the date when the BMP Action can reasonably be expected to be completed. When a BMP Action is NOT required, leave the "Complete by Date" blank. ·

• DescribeBMP Action, ifNeeded-Anytimeyou check "Yes"for "BMP Action Required", then you must also fill in the "Describe BMP Action" column.

• Delay~d Action Item Report - When a BMP Action is required and the Complete by Date is not met, you must then fill out the Delayed Action Item Report to explain why the date was not met. Keep the Delayed Af:tion Item Report in the SWPPP. · ·

• Corrective Action Log - When a BMP Action is required as noted in this report, you must also enter all the

· information for this action in the Corrective Action Log.
