Pollutants of Concern

Potential pollutants associated with Urban Runoff from the proposed project must be identified. Exhibit B of the WQMP provides brief descriptions of typical pollutants associated with Urban Runoff and a table that associates typical potential pollutants with types of development (land use). It should be noted that at the Co-Permittees discretion, the Co-Permittees may also accept updated studies from the California Association of Stormwater Quality Agencies (CASQA), USEPA, SWRCB and/or other commonly accepted agencies/associations acceptable to the Co-Permittee for determination of Pollutants of Concern associated with given land use. Additionally, in identifying Pollutants of Concern, the presence of legacy pesticides, nutrients, or hazardous substances in the site’s soils as a result of past uses and their potential for exposure to Urban Runoff must be addressed in project-specific WQMPs. The Co-Permittee may also require specific pollutants commonly associated with urban runoff to be addressed based on known problems in the watershed. The list of potential Urban Runoff pollutants identified for the project must be compared with the pollutants identified as causing an impairment of Receiving Waters, if any. To identify pollutants impairing proximate Receiving Waters, each project proponent preparing a project-specific WQMP shall, at a minimum, do the following:

For each of the proposed project discharge points, identify the proximate Receiving Water for each discharge point, using hydrologic unit basin numbers as identified in the most recent version of the Water Quality Control Plan for the Santa Ana River Basin or the San Diego Region.

Identify each proximate identified above that is listed on the most recent list of Clean Water Act Section 303(d) list of impaired water bodies, which can be found at website www.swrcb.ca.gov/tmdl/303d_lists.html. List all pollutants for which the proximate Receiving Waters are impaired.

Compare the list of pollutants for which the proximate Receiving Waters are impaired with the pollutants expected to be generated by the project.

Urban Runoff Pollutants:	Insert potential stormwater pollutants associated with project type as presented in Exhibit B of Riverside County WQMP. Additionally, any other potential stormwater pollutants that are project-specific must also be identified.

Hydrologic Conditions of Concern

Impacts to the hydrologic regime resulting from the Project may include increased runoff volume and velocity; reduced infiltration; increased flow frequency, duration, and peaks; faster time to reach peak flow; and water quality degradation. Under certain circumstances, changes could also result in the reduction in the amount of available sediment for transport; storm flows could fill this sediment-carrying capacity by eroding the downstream channel. These changes have the potential to permanently impact downstream channels and habitat integrity. A change to the hydrologic regime of a Project’s site would be considered a hydrologic condition of concern if the change would have a significant impact on downstream erosion compared to the pre-development condition or have significant impacts on stream habitat, alone or as part of a cumulative impact from development in the watershed.

This project-specific WQMP must address the issue of Hydrologic Conditions of Concern unless one of the following conditions are met:

Condition A: Runoff from the Project is discharged directly to a publicly-owned, operated and maintained MS4; the discharge is in full compliance with Co-Permittee requirements for connections and discharges to the MS4 (including both quality and quantity requirements); the discharge would not significantly impact stream habitat in proximate Receiving Waters; and the discharge is authorized by the Co-Permittee.

Condition B: The project disturbs less than 1 acre. The disturbed area calculation should include all disturbances associated with larger plans of development.

Condition C: The project’s runoff flow rate, volume, velocity and duration for the post-development condition do not exceed the pre-development condition for the 2-year, 24-hour and 10-year 24-hour rainfall events. This condition can be achieved by minimizing impervious area on a site and incorporating other site-design concepts that mimic pre-development conditions. This condition must be substantiated by hydrologic modeling methods acceptable to the Co-Permittee.

This Project meets the following condition: INSERT CONDITION A, CONDITION B, CONDITION C, OR NONE. IF NONE, REFER TO SECTION 4.4 OF RIVERSIDE COUNTY WQMP FOR ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS.

Supporting engineering studies, calculations, and reports are included in Appendix C.

Best Management Practices

V.1	Site Design BMPs

Project proponents shall implement Site Design concepts that achieve each of the following:

Minimize Urban Runoff

Minimize Impervious Footprint

Conserve Natural Areas

Minimize Directly Connected Impervious Areas (DCIAs)

The project proponent should identify the specific BMPs implemented to achieve each Site Design concept and provide a brief explanation for those Site Design concepts considered not applicable.

Instructions:

In field below, provide narrative describing which site design concepts were incorporated into project plans. If the project proponent implements a Co-Permittee approved alternative or equally-effective Site Design BMP not specifically described below, the Site Design BMP checkbox in Table I should be marked and an additional description indicating the nature of the BMP and how it addresses the Site Design concept should be provided. Continue with completion of Table 1.

Note: The Co-Permittees general plan or other land use regulations/documents may require several measures that are effectively site design BMPs (such as minimization of directly connected impervious areas and/or setbacks from natural stream courses). The Project Proponent should work with Co-Permittee staff to determine if those requirements may be interpreted as site design BMPs for use in this table/narrative. See Section 4.5.1 of the WQMP for additional guidance on Site Design BMPs.

Following Table 1: if a particular Site Design BMP concept is found to be not applicable, please provide a brief explanation as to why the concept cannot be implemented. Also include descriptions explaining how each included BMP will be implemented. In those areas where Site Design BMPs require ongoing maintenance, the inspection and maintenance frequency, the inspection criteria, and the entity or party responsible for implementation, maintenance, and/or inspection shall be described. The location of each Site Design BMP must also be shown on the WQMP Site Plan included in Appendix B.
