ATTACHMENT "B": POLLUTION SOURCE CONTROL PROGRAM
EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL BMP's
WHAT ARE POLLUTION SOURCE CONTROLS, AND WHY ARE THEY
NEEDED?
Pollution source controls are actions taken by a person or business to reduce the amount
of pollution reaching surface and ground waters. Controls, also called "best management
practices'' (BMPs), include:
c~3 Altering the activity (e.g., substitute non-toxic products, recycle used oil, route floor
drains to sanitary sewer from storm sewer)
c~ Enclosing or covering the activity (e.g., building a roof)
cis Segregating the activity (e.g., diverting runoff away from an area that is
contaminated)
c~ Routing runoff from the activity to a treatment alternative (e.g., to a wastewater
treatment facility, sanitary sewer, or stormwater treatment area)
Pollution source controls are needed because of the contamination found in runoff from
residential areas and the effect of this contamination on aquatic life and human health.
Research on urban runoff in the Puget Sound area and elsewhere has found oil and
grease, nutrients, organic substances, toxic metals, bacteria, viruses, and sediments at
unacceptable levels. Effects of contaminated runoff include closure of shellfish
harvesting areas and swimming areas, mortality of young fish and other aquatic
organisms, tumors on fish, and impairment of fish reproduction.
MATERIALS USED AND WASTES GENERATED
Of particular concern are drives and parking areas. Because of heavy vehicle usage, the
concentration of oil and grease in stormwater may exceed the Ecology guidelines of 10
mg/1. Although there are no local data to confirm this view, limited research in the San
Francisco Bay area found the mean concentration of oil and grease in stormwater to
exceed 10 mg/1.
REQUIRED ACTIONS
The following actions shall be taken to ensure that pollution generated on site shall be
minimized:
1. Warning signs (e.g., "Dump No Waste--Drains to Stream'') shall be painted or
embossed on or adjacent to all storm drain inlets. They shall be repainted as
needed. Materials needed to undertake this task can be purchased or may be
available from the Public Involvement Coordinator for the Department of Public
Works.
2. Sediment removed from basins and swales shall be disposed of in a proper
manner. Contact the local governing jurisdiction for inspection prior to
completing this task.
3. No activities shall be conducted on site that are likely to result in short-term,
highly concentrated discharge of pollution to the stormwater system. Such
activities may include, but are not limited to, heavy vehicle maintenance, and
cleaning of equipment used in the periodic maintenance of buildings and paved
surfaces.
4. Use of pesticides and fertilizers shall be minimized.
5. Do not dump paint, solvents, oils, or other such substances, including landscape
waste, into storm drains.
Catch Basins and Inlets
These structures are typically located in the streets and public rights-of--way. Local
jurisdictions are responsible for routine maintenance of the pipes and catch basins in
rights-of--way, while you are responsible for keeping the grates clear of debris in all areas
as well as pipes and catch basins in private areas.
