Permit/Application  Number(s): WQMPXX‐XXXXXX Tract/Parcel Map Number(s):   Additional  Information/  Comments:  n/a  Description of  Project:  The project site encompasses approximately 13.40 acres. Proposed improvements to the site include a  light industrial warehouse type building and a loading dock on the southerly side of the building.  Vehicle parking will be located along the easterly side of the site. The remainder of the site will be  reserved for landscaping.    The  project  proposes  one  underground  retention  system  for  infiltration  and  one  hydrodynamic  separator  for  pretreatment.  The  system  will  be  located  in  the  southerly truck yard. As shown in  Worksheet H of Attachment B, the design infiltration rate for is 9.9 in/hr which can drawdown up to  237.6 inches of stormwater within 24 hours. The effective ponding depth is 64.2 inches for the onsite  underground  retention  system.  With  this  justification,  the  project’s  design  capture  volume  is  determined using the 1.582 regression constant for 24 hours.    Approximately 0.05 acres of driveway area along the easterly right‐of‐way will drain offsite without  being routed to the onsite BMPs for treatment. The driveway area will be accounted for in the onsite  underground retention system even though it does not physically drain there.      The  project  also  proposes  street  improvements;  however,  they  consist of less than ½ mile and  therefore  not  required  to  treat  any  public  improvements  per  Appendix  A  of  the  San  Bernardino  Technical Guidance Document.  Provide summary of  Conceptual WQMP  conditions (if  previously submitted  and approved).  Attach complete  copy.  n/a    Water Quality Management Plan (WQMP)

based on performance criteria specified in the MS4 Permit. These targets include runoff volume for  water  quality  control  (referred  to  as  LID  design  capture  volume), and runoff volume, time of  concentration, and peak runoff for protection of any downstream waterbody segments with a HCOC. If  the project has more than one outlet for stormwater runoff, then complete additional versions of  these forms for each DA / outlet.    Methods applied in the following forms include:     For LID BMP Design Capture Volume (DCV), the San Bernardino County Stormwater Program  requires use of the P6 method (MS4 Permit Section XI.D.6a.ii) – Form 4.2‐1   For  HCOC  pre‐  and  post‐development  hydrologic  calculation,  the San  Bernardino  County  Stormwater  Program  requires  the  use  of  the  Rational  Method  (San  Bernardino  County  Hydrology Manual Section D). Forms 4.2‐2 through Form 4.2‐5 calculate hydrologic variables  including runoff volume, time of concentration, and peak runoff from the project site pre‐ and  post‐development using the Hydrology Manual Rational Method approach. For projects greater  than 640 acres (1.0 mi2), the Rational Method and these forms should not be used. For such  projects, the Unit Hydrograph Method (San Bernardino County Hydrology Manual Section E)  shall be applied for hydrologic calculations for HCOC performance criteria.

(WQMP Template Section 4.2). For the LID DCV, the forms are ordered according to hierarchy of BMP  selection as required by the MS4 Permit (see Section 5.3.1 in the TGD for WQMP). The forms compute  the following for on‐site LID BMP:     Site Design and Hydrologic Source Controls (Form 4.3‐2)   Retention and Infiltration (Form 4.3‐3)   Harvested and Use (Form 4.3‐4) or   Biotreatment (Form 4.3‐5).    At  the  end  of  each  form,  additional  fields  facilitate  the  determination  of  the  extent  of  mitigation  provided by the specific BMP category, allowing for use of the next category of BMP in the hierarchy, if  necessary.    The first step in the analysis, using Section 5.3.2.1 of the TGD for WQMP, is to complete Forms 4.3‐1 and  4.3‐3) to determine if retention and infiltration BMPs are infeasible for the project. For each feasibility  criterion  in  Form  4.3‐1,  if  the  answer  is  “Yes,”  provide  all  study  findings  that  includes  relevant  calculations, maps, data sources, etc. used to make the determination of infeasibility.    Next, complete Forms 4.3‐2 and 4.3‐4 to determine the feasibility of applicable HSC and harvest and use  BMPs, and, if their implementation is feasible, the extent of mitigation of the DCV.    If no site constraints exist that would limit the type of BMP to be implemented in a DA, evaluate the use  of combinations of LID BMPs, including all applicable HSC BMPs to maximize on‐site retention of the  DCV. If no combination of BMP can mitigate the entire DCV, implement  the  single  BMP  type,  or  combination of BMP types, that maximizes on‐site retention of the DCV within the minimum effective  area.    If the combination of LID HSC, retention and infiltration, and harvest and  use BMPs are unable to  mitigate the entire DCV, then biotreatment BMPs may be implemented by the project proponent. If  biotreatment  BMPs  are  used,  then  they  must  be  sized  to  provide sufficient  capacity  for  effective  treatment of the remainder of the volume‐based performance criteria that cannot be achieved with LID  BMPs (TGD for WQMP Section 5.4.4.2). Under no circumstances shall any portion of the DCV be released  from the site without effective mitigation and/or treatment.

HILLIARD, OH 43026 (800) 821-6710 www.ads-pipe.com 1 MG1.01 ©ADS 2017 One of the advantages of the BaySaver Barracuda is the ease of maintenance. Like any system that collects pollutants, the BaySaver Barracuda must be maintained for continued effectiveness. Maintenance is a simple procedure performed using a vacuum truck or similar equipment. The systems were designed to minimize the volume of water removed during routine maintenance, reducing disposal costs. Contractors can access the pollutants stored in the manhole through the manhole cover. This allows them to gain vacuum hose access to the bottom of the manhole to remove sediment and trash. There is no confined space entry necessary for inspection or maintenance. The entire maintenance procedure typically takes from 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size of the system, the captured material, and the capacity of the vacuum truck. Local regulations may apply to the maintenance procedure. Safe and legal disposal of pollutants is the responsibility of the maintenance contractor. Maintenance should be performed only by a qualified contractor. Inspection and Cleaning Cycle Periodic inspection is needed to determine the need for and frequency of maintenance. You should begin inspecting as soon as construction is complete and thereafter on an annual basis. Typically, the system needs to be cleaned every 1-3 years. Excessive oils, fuels or sediments may reduce the maintenance cycle. Periodic inspection is important. Determining When to Clean To determine the sediment depth, the maintenance contractor should lower a stadia rod into the manhole until it contacts the top of the captured sediment and mark that spot on the rod. Then push the probe through to the bottom of the sump and mark that spot to determine sediment depth. Maintenance should occur when the sediment has reached the levels indicated in the Storage Capacity Chart.

HILLIARD, OH 43026 (800) 821-6710 www.ads-pipe.com MG1.01 ©ADS 2017 2. Use a vacuum truck or other similar equipment to remove all water, debris, oils and sediment. See figure 1. 3. Use a high pressure hose to clean the manhole of all the remaining sediment and debris. Then, use the vacuum truck to remove the water. 4. Fill the cleaned manhole with water until the level reaches the invert of the outlet pipe. 5. Replace the manhole cover. 6. Dispose of the polluted water, oils, sediment and trash at an approved facility. • Local regulations prohibit the discharge of solid material into the sanitary system. Check with the local sewer authority for authority to discharge the liquid. • Some localities treat the pollutants as leachate. Check with local regulators about disposal requirements. • Additional local regulations may apply to the maintenance procedure. Figure 1 Non-Stormwater Discharges SC-10 Description Art Credit: Margie Winter Objectives „ Cover „ Contain „ Educate „ Reduce/Minimize „ Product Substitution Targeted Constituents Sediment Nutrients  Trash Metals  Bacteria  Oil and Grease  Organics  Non-stormwater discharges are those flows that do not consist entirely of stormwater. Some non-stormwater discharges do not include pollutants and may be discharged to the storm drain. These include uncontaminated groundwater and natural springs. There are also some non-stormwater discharges that typically do not contain pollutants and may be discharged to the storm drain with conditions. These include car washing, air conditioner condensate, etc. However there are certain non-stormwater discharges that pose environmental concern. These discharges may originate from illegal dumping or from internal floor drains, appliances, industrial processes, sinks, and toilets that are connected to the nearby storm drainage system. These discharges (which may include: process waste waters, cooling waters, wash waters, and sanitary wastewater) can carry substances such as paint, oil, fuel and other automotive fluids, chemicals and other pollutants into storm drains. They can generally be detected through a combination of detection and elimination. The ultimate goal is to effectively eliminate non- stormwater discharges to the stormwater drainage system through implementation of measures to detect, correct, and enforce against illicit connections and illegal discharges of pollutants on streets and into the storm drain system and creeks. Approach Initially the industry must make an assessment of non- stormwater discharges to determine which types must be eliminated or addressed through BMPs. The focus of the following approach is in the elimination of non-stormwater discharges. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 6 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-10 Non-Stormwater Discharges Pollution Prevention „ Ensure that used oil, used antifreeze, and hazardous chemical recycling programs are being implemented. Encourage litter control. Suggested Protocols Recommended Complaint Investigation Equipment „ Field Screening Analysis - pH paper or meter - Commercial stormwater pollutant screening kit that can detect for reactive phosphorus, nitrate nitrogen, ammonium nitrogen, specific conductance, and turbidity - Sample jars - Sample collection pole - A tool to remove access hole covers „ Laboratory Analysis - Sample cooler - Ice - Sample jars and labels - Chain of custody forms „ Documentation - Camera - Notebook - Pens - Notice of Violation forms - Educational materials General „ Develop clear protocols and lines of communication for effectively prohibiting non- stormwater discharges, especially those that are not classified as hazardous. These are often not responded to as effectively as they need to be. „ Stencil or demarcate storm drains, where applicable, to prevent illegal disposal of pollutants. Storm drain inlets should have messages such as “Dump No Waste Drains to Stream” stenciled or demarcated next to them to warn against ignorant or intentional dumping of pollutants into the storm drainage system. 2 of 6 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Non-Stormwater Discharges SC-10 „ See SC44 Stormwater Drainage System Maintenance for additional information. Illicit Connections „ Locate discharges from the industrial storm drainage system to the municipal storm drain system through review of “as-built” piping schematics. „ Isolate problem areas and plug illicit discharge points. „ Locate and evaluate all discharges to the industrial storm drain system. Visual Inspection and Inventory „ Inventory and inspect each discharge point during dry weather. „ Keep in mind that drainage from a storm event can continue for a day or two following the end of a storm and groundwater may infiltrate the underground stormwater collection system. Also, non-stormwater discharges are often intermittent and may require periodic inspections. Review Infield Piping „ A review of the “as-built” piping schematic is a way to determine if there are any connections to the stormwater collection system. „ Inspect the path of floor drains in older buildings. Smoke Testing „ Smoke testing of wastewater and stormwater collection systems is used to detect connections between the two systems. „ During dry weather the stormwater collection system is filled with smoke and then traced to sources. The appearance of smoke at the base of a toilet indicates that there may be a connection between the sanitary and the stormwater system. Dye Testing „ A dye test can be performed by simply releasing a dye into either your sanitary or process wastewater system and examining the discharge points from the stormwater collection system for discoloration. TV Inspection of Drainage System „ TV Cameras can be employed to visually identify illicit connections to the industrial storm drainage system. Illegal Dumping „ Regularly inspect and clean up hot spots and other storm drainage areas where illegal dumping and disposal occurs. „ On paved surfaces, clean up spills with as little water as possible. Use a rag for small spills, a damp mop for general cleanup, and absorbent material for larger spills. If the spilled material is hazardous, then the used cleanup materials are also hazardous and must be sent to a certified laundry (rags) or disposed of as hazardous waste. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 6 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-10 Non-Stormwater Discharges „ Never hose down or bury dry material spills. Sweep up the material and dispose of properly. „ Use adsorbent materials on small spills rather than hosing down the spill. Remove the adsorbent materials promptly and dispose of properly. „ For larger spills, a private spill cleanup company or Hazmat team may be necessary. Once a site has been cleaned: „ Post “No Dumping” signs with a phone number for reporting dumping and disposal. „ Landscaping and beautification efforts of hot spots may also discourage future dumping, as well as provide open space and increase property values. „ Lighting or barriers may also be needed to discourage future dumping. „ See fact sheet SC11 Spill Prevention, Control, and Cleanup. Inspection „ Regularly inspect and clean up hot spots and other storm drainage areas where illegal dumping and disposal occurs. „ Conduct field investigations of the industrial storm drain system for potential sources of non-stormwater discharges. „ Pro-actively conduct investigations of high priority areas. Based on historical data, prioritize specific geographic areas and/or incident type for pro-active investigations. Reporting „ A database is useful for defining and tracking the magnitude and location of the problem. „ Report prohibited non-stormwater discharges observed during the course of normal daily activities so they can be investigated, contained, and cleaned up or eliminated. „ Document that non-stormwater discharges have been eliminated by recording tests performed, methods used, dates of testing, and any on-site drainage points observed. „ Document and report annually the results of the program. „ Maintain documentation of illicit connection and illegal dumping incidents, including significant conditionally exempt discharges that are not properly managed. Training „ Training of technical staff in identifying and documenting illegal dumping incidents is required. „ Consider posting the quick reference table near storm drains to reinforce training. „ Train employees to identify non-stormwater discharges and report discharges to the appropriate departments. 4 of 6 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Non-Stormwater Discharges SC-10 „ Educate employees about spill prevention and cleanup. „ Well-trained employees can reduce human errors that lead to accidental releases or spills. The employee should have the tools and knowledge to immediately begin cleaning up a spill should one occur. Employees should be familiar with the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan. „ Determine and implement appropriate outreach efforts to reduce non-permissible non- stormwater discharges. „ Conduct spill response drills annually (if no events occurred to evaluate your plan) in cooperation with other industries. „ When a responsible party is identified, educate the party on the impacts of his or her actions. Spill Response and Prevention „ See SC11 Spill Prevention Control and Cleanup. Other Considerations „ Many facilities do not have accurate, up-to-date schematic drawings. Requirements Costs (including capital and operation & maintenance) „ The primary cost is for staff time and depends on how aggressively a program is implemented. „ Cost for containment and disposal is borne by the discharger. „ Illicit connections can be difficult to locate especially if there is groundwater infiltration. „ Indoor floor drains may require re-plumbing if cross-connections to storm drains are detected. Maintenance (including administrative and staffing) „ Illegal dumping and illicit connection violations requires technical staff to detect and investigate them. Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Illegal Dumping „ Substances illegally dumped on streets and into the storm drain systems and creeks include paints, used oil and other automotive fluids, construction debris, chemicals, fresh concrete, leaves, grass clippings, and pet wastes. All of these wastes cause stormwater and receiving water quality problems as well as clog the storm drain system itself. „ Establish a system for tracking incidents. The system should be designed to identify the following: - Illegal dumping hot spots January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 5 of 6 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-10 Non-Stormwater Discharges 6 of 6 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com - Types and quantities (in some cases) of wastes - Patterns in time of occurrence (time of day/night, month, or year) - Mode of dumping (abandoned containers, “midnight dumping” from moving vehicles, direct dumping of materials, accidents/spills) - Responsible parties One of the keys to success of reducing or eliminating illegal dumping is increasing the number of people at the facility who are aware of the problem and who have the tools to at least identify the incident, if not correct it. Therefore, train field staff to recognize and report the incidents. What constitutes a “non-stormwater” discharge? „ Non-stormwater discharges to the stormwater collection system may include any water used directly in the manufacturing process (process wastewater), air conditioning condensate and coolant, non-contact cooling water, cooling equipment condensate, outdoor secondary containment water, vehicle and equipment wash water, sink and drinking fountain wastewater, sanitary wastes, or other wastewaters. Permit Requirements „ Facilities subject to stormwater permit requirements must include a certification that the stormwater collection system has been tested or evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharges. The State’s General Industrial Stormwater Permit requires that non- stormwater discharges be eliminated prior to implementation of the facility’s SWPPP. Performance Evaluation „ Review annually internal investigation results; assess whether goals were met and what changes or improvements are necessary. „ Obtain feedback from personnel assigned to respond to, or inspect for, illicit connections and illegal dumping incidents.

Preparation for accidental or illegal spills, with proper training and reporting systems implemented, can minimize the discharge of pollutants to the environment. Spills and leaks are one of the largest contributors of stormwater pollutants. Spill prevention and control plans are applicable to any site at which hazardous materials are stored or used. An effective plan should have spill prevention and response procedures that identify potential spill areas, specify material handling procedures, describe spill response procedures, and provide spill clean-up equipment. The plan should take steps to identify and characterize potential spills, eliminate and reduce spill potential, respond to spills when they occur in an effort to prevent pollutants from entering the stormwater drainage system, and train personnel to prevent and control future spills. Approach Pollution Prevention „ Develop procedures to prevent/mitigate spills to storm drain systems. Develop and standardize reporting procedures, containment, storage, and disposal activities, documentation, and follow-up procedures. „ Develop a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan. The plan should include: January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 9 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-11 Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup - Description of the facility, owner and address, activities and chemicals present - Facility map - Notification and evacuation procedures - Cleanup instructions - Identification of responsible departments - Identify key spill response personnel „ Recycle, reclaim, or reuse materials whenever possible. This will reduce the amount of process materials that are brought into the facility. Suggested Protocols (including equipment needs) Spill Prevention „ Develop procedures to prevent/mitigate spills to storm drain systems. Develop and standardize reporting procedures, containment, storage, and disposal activities, documentation, and follow-up procedures. „ If consistent illegal dumping is observed at the facility: - Post “No Dumping” signs with a phone number for reporting illegal dumping and disposal. Signs should also indicate fines and penalties applicable for illegal dumping. - Landscaping and beautification efforts may also discourage illegal dumping. - Bright lighting and/or entrance barriers may also be needed to discourage illegal dumping. „ Store and contain liquid materials in such a manner that if the tank is ruptured, the contents will not discharge, flow, or be washed into the storm drainage system, surface waters, or groundwater. „ If the liquid is oil, gas, or other material that separates from and floats on water, install a spill control device (such as a tee section) in the catch basins that collects runoff from the storage tank area. „ Routine maintenance: - Place drip pans or absorbent materials beneath all mounted taps, and at all potential drip and spill locations during filling and unloading of tanks. Any collected liquids or soiled absorbent materials must be reused/recycled or properly disposed. - Store and maintain appropriate spill cleanup materials in a location known to all near the tank storage area; and ensure that employees are familiar with the site’s spill control plan and/or proper spill cleanup procedures. - Sweep and clean the storage area monthly if it is paved, do not hose down the area to a storm drain. 2 of 9 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup SC-11 - Check tanks (and any containment sumps) daily for leaks and spills. Replace tanks that are leaking, corroded, or otherwise deteriorating with tanks in good condition. Collect all spilled liquids and properly dispose of them. „ Label all containers according to their contents (e.g., solvent, gasoline). „ Label hazardous substances regarding the potential hazard (corrosive, radioactive, flammable, explosive, poisonous). „ Prominently display required labels on transported hazardous and toxic materials (per US DOT regulations). „ Identify key spill response personnel. Spill Control and Cleanup Activities „ Follow the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan. „ Clean up leaks and spills immediately. „ Place a stockpile of spill cleanup materials where it will be readily accessible (e.g., near storage and maintenance areas). „ On paved surfaces, clean up spills with as little water as possible. Use a rag for small spills, a damp mop for general cleanup, and absorbent material for larger spills. If the spilled material is hazardous, then the used cleanup materials are also hazardous and must be sent to a certified laundry (rags) or disposed of as hazardous waste. Physical methods for the cleanup of dry chemicals include the use of brooms, shovels, sweepers, or plows. „ Never hose down or bury dry material spills. Sweep up the material and dispose of properly. „ Chemical cleanups of material can be achieved with the use of adsorbents, gels, and foams. Use adsorbent materials on small spills rather than hosing down the spill. Remove the adsorbent materials promptly and dispose of properly. „ For larger spills, a private spill cleanup company or Hazmat team may be necessary. Reporting „ Report spills that pose an immediate threat to human health or the environment to the Regional Water Quality Control Board. „ Federal regulations require that any oil spill into a water body or onto an adjoining shoreline be reported to the National Response Center (NRC) at 800-424-8802 (24 hour). „ Report spills to local agencies, such as the fire department; they can assist in cleanup. „ Establish a system for tracking incidents. The system should be designed to identify the following: - Types and quantities (in some cases) of wastes - Patterns in time of occurrence (time of day/night, month, or year) January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 9 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-11 Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup - Mode of dumping (abandoned containers, “midnight dumping” from moving vehicles, direct dumping of materials, accidents/spills) - Responsible parties Training „ Educate employees about spill prevention and cleanup. „ Well-trained employees can reduce human errors that lead to accidental releases or spills: - The employee should have the tools and knowledge to immediately begin cleaning up a spill should one occur. - Employees should be familiar with the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan. „ Employees should be educated about aboveground storage tank requirements. Employees responsible for aboveground storage tanks and liquid transfers should be thoroughly familiar with the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan and the plan should be readily available. „ Train employees to recognize and report illegal dumping incidents. Other Considerations (Limitations and Regulations) „ State regulations exist for facilities with a storage capacity of 10,000 gallons or more of petroleum to prepare a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan (Health & Safety Code Chapter 6.67). „ State regulations also exist for storage of hazardous materials (Health & Safety Code Chapter 6.95), including the preparation of area and business plans for emergency response to the releases or threatened releases. „ Consider requiring smaller secondary containment areas (less than 200 sq. ft.) to be connected to the sanitary sewer, prohibiting any hard connections to the storm drain. Requirements Costs (including capital and operation & maintenance) „ Will vary depending on the size of the facility and the necessary controls. „ Prevention of leaks and spills is inexpensive. Treatment and/or disposal of contaminated soil or water can be quite expensive. Maintenance (including administrative and staffing) „ This BMP has no major administrative or staffing requirements. However, extra time is needed to properly handle and dispose of spills, which results in increased labor costs. 4 of 9 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup SC-11 Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Reporting Record keeping and internal reporting represent good operating practices because they can increase the efficiency of the facility and the effectiveness of BMPs. A good record keeping system helps the facility minimize incident recurrence, correctly respond with appropriate cleanup activities, and comply with legal requirements. A record keeping and reporting system should be set up for documenting spills, leaks, and other discharges, including discharges of hazardous substances in reportable quantities. Incident records describe the quality and quantity of non-stormwater discharges to the storm sewer. These records should contain the following information: „ Date and time of the incident „ Weather conditions „ Duration of the spill/leak/discharge „ Cause of the spill/leak/discharge „ Response procedures implemented „ Persons notified „ Environmental problems associated with the spill/leak/discharge Separate record keeping systems should be established to document housekeeping and preventive maintenance inspections, and training activities. All housekeeping and preventive maintenance inspections should be documented. Inspection documentation should contain the following information: „ The date and time the inspection was performed „ Name of the inspector „ Items inspected „ Problems noted „ Corrective action required „ Date corrective action was taken Other means to document and record inspection results are field notes, timed and dated photographs, videotapes, and drawings and maps. Aboveground Tank Leak and Spill Control Accidental releases of materials from aboveground liquid storage tanks present the potential for contaminating stormwater with many different pollutants. Materials spilled, leaked, or lost from January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 5 of 9 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-11 Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup tanks may accumulate in soils or on impervious surfaces and be carried away by stormwater runoff. The most common causes of unintentional releases are: „ Installation problems „ Failure of piping systems (pipes, pumps, flanges, couplings, hoses, and valves) „ External corrosion and structural failure „ Spills and overfills due to operator error „ Leaks during pumping of liquids or gases from truck or rail car to a storage tank or vice versa Storage of reactive, ignitable, or flammable liquids should comply with the Uniform Fire Code and the National Electric Code. Practices listed below should be employed to enhance the code requirements: „ Tanks should be placed in a designated area. „ Tanks located in areas where firearms are discharged should be encapsulated in concrete or the equivalent. „ Designated areas should be impervious and paved with Portland cement concrete, free of cracks and gaps, in order to contain leaks and spills. „ Liquid materials should be stored in UL approved double walled tanks or surrounded by a curb or dike to provide the volume to contain 10 percent of the volume of all of the containers or 110 percent of the volume of the largest container, whichever is greater. The area inside the curb should slope to a drain. „ For used oil or dangerous waste, a dead-end sump should be installed in the drain. „ All other liquids should be drained to the sanitary sewer if available. The drain must have a positive control such as a lock, valve, or plug to prevent release of contaminated liquids. „ Accumulated stormwater in petroleum storage areas should be passed through an oil/water separator. Maintenance is critical to preventing leaks and spills. Conduct routine inspections and: „ Check for external corrosion and structural failure. „ Check for spills and overfills due to operator error. „ Check for failure of piping system (pipes, pumps, flanger, coupling, hoses, and valves). „ Check for leaks or spills during pumping of liquids or gases from truck or rail car to a storage facility or vice versa. 6 of 9 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup SC-11 „ Visually inspect new tank or container installation for loose fittings, poor welding, and improper or poorly fitted gaskets. „ Inspect tank foundations, connections, coatings, and tank walls and piping system. Look for corrosion, leaks, cracks, scratches, and other physical damage that may weaken the tank or container system. „ Frequently relocate accumulated stormwater during the wet season. „ Periodically conduct integrity testing by a qualified professional. Vehicle Leak and Spill Control Major spills on roadways and other public areas are generally handled by highly trained Hazmat teams from local fire departments or environmental health departments. The measures listed below pertain to leaks and smaller spills at vehicle maintenance shops. In addition to implementing the spill prevention, control, and clean up practices above, use the following measures related to specific activities: Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance „ Perform all vehicle fluid removal or changing inside or under cover to prevent the run-on of stormwater and the runoff of spills. „ Regularly inspect vehicles and equipment for leaks, and repair immediately. „ Check incoming vehicles and equipment (including delivery trucks, and employee and subcontractor vehicles) for leaking oil and fluids. Do not allow leaking vehicles or equipment onsite. „ Always use secondary containment, such as a drain pan or drop cloth, to catch spills or leaks when removing or changing fluids. „ Immediately drain all fluids from wrecked vehicles. „ Store wrecked vehicles or damaged equipment under cover. „ Place drip pans or absorbent materials under heavy equipment when not in use. „ Use adsorbent materials on small spills rather than hosing down the spill. „ Remove the adsorbent materials promptly and dispose of properly. „ Promptly transfer used fluids to the proper waste or recycling drums. Don’t leave full drip pans or other open containers lying around. „ Oil filters disposed of in trashcans or dumpsters can leak oil and contaminate stormwater. Place the oil filter in a funnel over a waste oil recycling drum to drain excess oil before disposal. Oil filters can also be recycled. Ask your oil supplier or recycler about recycling oil filters. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 7 of 9 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-11 Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup „ Store cracked batteries in a non-leaking secondary container. Do this with all cracked batteries, even if you think all the acid has drained out. If you drop a battery, treat it as if it is cracked. Put it into the containment area until you are sure it is not leaking. Vehicle and Equipment Fueling „ Design the fueling area to prevent the run-on of stormwater and the runoff of spills: - Cover fueling area if possible. - Use a perimeter drain or slope pavement inward with drainage to a sump. - Pave fueling area with concrete rather than asphalt. „ If dead-end sump is not used to collect spills, install an oil/water separator. „ Install vapor recovery nozzles to help control drips as well as air pollution. „ Discourage “topping-off’ of fuel tanks. „ Use secondary containment when transferring fuel from the tank truck to the fuel tank. „ Use adsorbent materials on small spills and general cleaning rather than hosing down the area. Remove the adsorbent materials promptly. „ Carry out all Federal and State requirements regarding underground storage tanks, or install above ground tanks. „ Do not use mobile fueling of mobile industrial equipment around the facility; rather, transport the equipment to designated fueling areas. „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. „ Train employees in proper fueling and cleanup procedures. Industrial Spill Prevention Response For the purposes of developing a spill prevention and response program to meet the stormwater regulations, facility managers should use information provided in this fact sheet and the spill prevention/response portions of the fact sheets in this handbook, for specific activities. The program should: „ Integrate with existing emergency response/hazardous materials programs (e.g., Fire Department) „ Develop procedures to prevent/mitigate spills to storm drain systems „ Identify responsible departments „ Develop and standardize reporting procedures, containment, storage, and disposal activities, documentation, and follow-up procedures „ Address spills at municipal facilities, as well as public areas 8 of 9 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup SC-11 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 9 of 9 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com „ Provide training concerning spill prevention, response and cleanup to all appropriate personnel References and Resources California’s Nonpoint Source Program Plan http://www.swrcb.ca.gov/nps/index.html Clark County Storm Water Pollution Control Manual http://www.co.clark.wa.us/pubworks/bmpman.pdf King County Storm Water Pollution Control Manual http://dnr.metrokc.gov/wlr/dss/spcm.htm Santa Clara Valley Urban Runoff Pollution Prevention Program http://www.scvurppp.org The Stormwater Managers Resource Center http://www.stormwatercenter.net/ Outdoor Loading/Unloading SC-30 Description Photo Credit: Geoff Brosseau Objectives „ Cover „ Contain „ Educate „ Reduce/Minimize „ Product Substitution Targeted Constituents Sediment  Nutrients  Trash Metals  Bacteria Oil and Grease  Organics  The loading/unloading of materials usually takes place outside on docks or terminals; therefore, materials spilled, leaked, or lost during loading/unloading may collect in the soil or on other surfaces and have the potential to be carried away by stormwater runoff or when the area is cleaned. Additionally, rainfall may wash pollutants from machinery used to unload or move materials. Implementation of the following protocols will prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants to stormwater from outdoor loading/unloading of materials. Approach Reduce potential for pollutant discharge through source control pollution prevention and BMP implementation. Successful implementation depends on effective training of employees on applicable BMPs and general pollution prevention strategies and objectives. Pollution Prevention „ Keep accurate maintenance logs to evaluate materials removed and improvements made. „ Park tank trucks or delivery vehicles in designated areas so that spills or leaks can be contained. „ Limit exposure of material to rainfall whenever possible. „ Prevent stormwater run-on. „ Check equipment regularly for leaks. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 4 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-30 Outdoor Loading/Unloading Suggested Protocols Loading and Unloading – General Guidelines „ Develop an operations plan that describes procedures for loading and/or unloading. „ Conduct loading and unloading in dry weather if possible. „ Cover designated loading/unloading areas to reduce exposure of materials to rain. „ Consider placing a seal or door skirt between delivery vehicles and building to prevent exposure to rain. „ Design loading/unloading area to prevent stormwater run-on, which would include grading or berming the area, and position roof downspouts so they direct stormwater away from the loading/unloading areas. „ Have employees load and unload all materials and equipment in covered areas such as building overhangs at loading docks if feasible. „ Load/unload only at designated loading areas. „ Use drip pans underneath hose and pipe connections and other leak-prone spots during liquid transfer operations, and when making and breaking connections. Several drip pans should be stored in a covered location near the liquid transfer area so that they are always available, yet protected from precipitation when not in use. Drip pans can be made specifically for railroad tracks. Drip pans must be cleaned periodically, and drip collected materials must be disposed of properly. „ Pave loading areas with concrete instead of asphalt. „ Avoid placing storm drains in the area. „ Grade and/or berm the loading/unloading area to a drain that is connected to a deadend. Inspection „ Check loading and unloading equipment regularly for leaks, including valves, pumps, flanges and connections. „ Look for dust or fumes during loading or unloading operations. Training „ Train employees (e.g., fork lift operators) and contractors on proper spill containment and cleanup. „ Have employees trained in spill containment and cleanup present during loading/unloading. „ Train employees in proper handling techniques during liquid transfers to avoid spills. „ Make sure forklift operators are properly trained on loading and unloading procedures. 2 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Outdoor Loading/Unloading SC-30 Spill Response and Prevention „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. „ Contain leaks during transfer. „ Store and maintain appropriate spill cleanup materials in a location that is readily accessible and known to all and ensure that employees are familiar with the site’s spill control plan and proper spill cleanup procedures. „ Have an emergency spill cleanup plan readily available. „ Use drip pans or comparable devices when transferring oils, solvents, and paints. Other Considerations (Limitations and Regulations) „ Space and time limitations may preclude all transfers from being performed indoors or under cover. „ It may not be possible to conduct transfers only during dry weather. Requirements Costs Costs should be low except when covering a large loading/unloading area. Maintenance „ Conduct regular inspections and make repairs as necessary. The frequency of repairs will depend on the age of the facility. „ Check loading and unloading equipment regularly for leaks. „ Conduct regular broom dry-sweeping of area. Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Special Circumstances for Indoor Loading/Unloading of Materials Loading or unloading of liquids should occur in the manufacturing building so that any spills that are not completely retained can be discharged to the sanitary sewer, treatment plant, or treated in a manner consistent with local sewer authorities and permit requirements. „ For loading and unloading tank trucks to above and below ground storage tanks, the following procedures should be used: - The area where the transfer takes place should be paved. If the liquid is reactive with the asphalt, Portland cement should be used to pave the area. - The transfer area should be designed to prevent run-on of stormwater from adjacent areas. Sloping the pad and using a curb, like a speed bump, around the uphill side of the transfer area should reduce run-on. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 4 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-30 Outdoor Loading/Unloading 4 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com - The transfer area should be designed to prevent runoff of spilled liquids from the area. Sloping the area to a drain should prevent runoff. The drain should be connected to a dead-end sump or to the sanitary sewer. A positive control valve should be installed on the drain. „ For transfer from rail cars to storage tanks that must occur outside, use the following procedures: - Drip pans should be placed at locations where spillage may occur, such as hose connections, hose reels, and filler nozzles. Use drip pans when making and breaking connections. - Drip pan systems should be installed between the rails to collect spillage from tank cars.

Activities, such as grinding, painting, coating, sanding, degreasing or parts cleaning, landfills and waste piles, solid waste treatment and disposal, are examples of process operations that can lead to contamination of stormwater runoff. Source controls for outdoor process equip- ment operations and maintenance include reducing the amount of waste created, enclosing or covering all or some of the equipment, installing secondary containment, and training employees. Approach Pollution Prevention „ Perform the activity during dry periods. „ Use non-toxic chemicals for maintenance and minimize or eliminate the use of solvents. Suggested Protocols „ Consider enclosing the activity in a building and connecting the floor drains to the sanitary sewer. „ Cover the work area with a permanent roof if possible. „ Minimize contact of stormwater with outside process equipment operations through berming and drainage routing (run-on prevention). If possible, connect process equipment area to public sewer or facility wastewater treatment system. Some municipalities require that secondary containment areas be connected to the sanitary sewer, prohibiting any hard connections to the storm drain. „ Dry clean the work area regularly. Training „ Train employees to perform the activity during dry periods only or substituting benign materials for more toxic ones. „ Train employee and contractors in proper techniques for spill containment and cleanup. Employees should have the tools and knowledge to immediately begin cleaning up a spill should one occur. Spill Response and Prevention „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 3 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-32 Outdoor Equipment Operations „ Have employees trained in emergency spill cleanup procedures present when dangerous waste, liquid chemicals, or other wastes are delivered. „ Place a stockpile of spill cleanup materials where it will be readily accessible. „ Prevent operator errors by using engineering safe guards and thus reducing accidental releases of pollutant. „ Inspect storage areas regularly for leaks or spills. Also check for structural failure, spills and overfills due to operator error, and/or failure of piping system. Other Considerations „ Providing cover may be expensive. „ Space limitations may preclude enclosing some equipment. „ Storage sheds often must meet building and fire code requirements. Requirements Costs Costs vary depending on the complexity of the operation and the amount of control necessary for stormwater pollution control. Maintenance „ Conduct routine preventive maintenance, including checking process equipment for leaks. „ Clean the storm drain system regularly. Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Hydraulic/Treatment Modifications If stormwater becomes polluted, it should be captured and treated. If you do not have your own process wastewater treatment system, consider discharging to the public sewer system. Use of the public sewer might be allowed under the following conditions: „ If the activity area is very small (less than a few hundred square feet), the local sewer authority may be willing to allow the area to remain uncovered with the drain connected to the public sewer. „ It may be possible under unusual circumstances to connect a much larger area to the public sewer, as long as the rate of stormwater discharges does not exceed the capacity of the wastewater treatment plant. The stormwater could be stored during the storm and then transferred to the public sewer when the normal flow is low, such as at night. Industries that generate large volumes of process wastewater typically have their own treatment system and corresponding permit. These industries have the discretion to use their wastewater treatment system to treat stormwater within the constraints of their permit requirements for process treatment. It may also be possible for the industry to discharge the stormwater directly to an effluent outfall without treatment as long as the total loading of the discharged process 2 of 3 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Outdoor Equipment Operations SC-32 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 3 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com water and stormwater does not exceed the loading had a stormwater treatment device been used. This could be achieved by reducing the loading from the process wastewater treatment system. Check with your Regional Water Quality Control Board or local sewering agency, as this option would be subject to permit constraints and potentially regular monitoring.

The discharge of pollutants to stormwater from waste handling and disposal can be prevented and reduced by tracking waste generation, storage, and disposal; reducing waste generation and disposal through source reduction, reuse, and recycling; and preventing run-on and runoff. Approach Pollution Prevention „ Accomplish reduction in the amount of waste generated using the following source controls: - Production planning and sequencing - Process or equipment modification - Raw material substitution or elimination - Loss prevention and housekeeping - Waste segregation and separation - Close loop recycling „ Establish a material tracking system to increase awareness about material usage. This may reduce spills and minimize contamination, thus reducing the amount of waste produced. „ Recycle materials whenever possible. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-34 Waste Handling & Disposal Suggested Protocols General „ Cover storage containers with leak proof lids or some other means. If waste is not in containers, cover all waste piles (plastic tarps are acceptable coverage) and prevent stormwater run-on and runoff with a berm. The waste containers or piles must be covered except when in use. „ Use drip pans or absorbent materials whenever grease containers are emptied by vacuum trucks or other means. Grease cannot be left on the ground. Collected grease must be properly disposed of as garbage. „ Check storage containers weekly for leaks and to ensure that lids are on tightly. Replace any that are leaking, corroded, or otherwise deteriorating. „ Sweep and clean the storage area regularly. If it is paved, do not hose down the area to a storm drain. „ Dispose of rinse and wash water from cleaning waste containers into a sanitary sewer if allowed by the local sewer authority. Do not discharge wash water to the street or storm drain. „ Transfer waste from damaged containers into safe containers. „ Take special care when loading or unloading wastes to minimize losses. Loading systems can be used to minimize spills and fugitive emission losses such as dust or mist. Vacuum transfer systems can minimize waste loss. Controlling Litter „ Post “No Littering” signs and enforce anti-litter laws. „ Provide a sufficient number of litter receptacles for the facility. „ Clean out and cover litter receptacles frequently to prevent spillage. Waste Collection „ Keep waste collection areas clean. „ Inspect solid waste containers for structural damage regularly. Repair or replace damaged containers as necessary. „ Secure solid waste containers; containers must be closed tightly when not in use. „ Do not fill waste containers with washout water or any other liquid. „ Ensure that only appropriate solid wastes are added to the solid waste container. Certain wastes such as hazardous wastes, appliances, fluorescent lamps, pesticides, etc., may not be disposed of in solid waste containers (see chemical/ hazardous waste collection section below). 2 of 5 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Waste Handling & Disposal SC-34 „ Do not mix wastes; this can cause chemical reactions, make recycling impossible, and complicate disposal. Good Housekeeping „ Use all of the product before disposing of the container. „ Keep the waste management area clean at all times by sweeping and cleaning up spills immediately. „ Use dry methods when possible (e.g., sweeping, use of absorbents) when cleaning around restaurant/food handling dumpster areas. If water must be used after sweeping/using absorbents, collect water and discharge through grease interceptor to the sewer. Chemical/Hazardous Wastes „ Select designated hazardous waste collection areas on-site. „ Store hazardous materials and wastes in covered containers and protect them from vandalism. „ Place hazardous waste containers in secondary containment. „ Make sure that hazardous waste is collected, removed, and disposed of only at authorized disposal areas. „ Stencil or demarcate storm drains on the facility’s property with prohibitive message regarding waste disposal. Run-on/Runoff Prevention „ Prevent stormwater run-on from entering the waste management area by enclosing the area or building a berm around the area. „ Prevent waste materials from directly contacting rain. „ Cover waste piles with temporary covering material such as reinforced tarpaulin, polyethylene, polyurethane, polypropyleneor hypalon. „ Cover the area with a permanent roof if feasible. „ Cover dumpsters to prevent rain from washing waste out of holes or cracks in the bottom of the dumpster. „ Move the activity indoor after ensuring all safety concerns such as fire hazard and ventilation are addressed. Inspection „ Inspect and replace faulty pumps or hoses regularly to minimize the potential of releases and spills. „ Check waste management areas for leaking containers or spills. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-34 Waste Handling & Disposal „ Repair leaking equipment including valves, lines, seals, or pumps promptly. Training „ Train staff in pollution prevention measures and proper disposal methods. „ Train employees and contractors in proper spill containment and cleanup. The employee should have the tools and knowledge to immediately begin cleaning up a spill should one occur. „ Train employees and subcontractors in proper hazardous waste management. Spill Response and Prevention „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. „ Have an emergency plan, equipment and trained personnel ready at all times to deal immediately with major spills „ Collect all spilled liquids and properly dispose of them. „ Store and maintain appropriate spill cleanup materials in a location known to all near the designated wash area. „ Ensure that vehicles transporting waste have spill prevention equipment that can prevent spills during transport. Spill prevention equipment includes: - Vehicles equipped with baffles for liquid waste - Trucks with sealed gates and spill guards for solid waste Other Considerations (Limitations and Regulations) Hazardous waste cannot be reused or recycled; it must be disposed of by a licensed hazardous waste hauler. Requirements Costs Capital and O&M costs for these programs will vary substantially depending on the size of the facility and the types of waste handled. Costs should be low if there is an inventory program in place. Maintenance „ None except for maintaining equipment for material tracking program. Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Land Treatment System Minimize runoff of polluted stormwater from land application by: „ Choosing a site where slopes are under 6%, the soil is permeable, there is a low water table, it is located away from wetlands or marshes, and there is a closed drainage system 4 of 5 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Waste Handling & Disposal SC-34 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 5 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com „ Avoiding application of waste to the site when it is raining or when the ground is saturated with water „ Growing vegetation on land disposal areas to stabilize soils and reduce the volume of surface water runoff from the site „ Maintaining adequate barriers between the land application site and the receiving waters (planted strips are particularly good) „ Using erosion control techniques such as mulching and matting, filter fences, straw bales, diversion terracing, and sediment basins „ Performing routine maintenance to ensure the erosion control or site stabilization measures are working Examples The port of Long Beach has a state-of-the-art database for identifying potential pollutant sources, documenting facility management practices, and tracking pollutants.

Alternatives exist for most product classes including chemical fertilizers, pesticides, cleaning solutions, janitorial chemicals, automotive and paint products, and consumables (batteries, fluorescent lamps). Approach Pattern a new program after the many established programs around the state and country. Integrate this best management practice as much as possible with existing programs at your facility. Develop a comprehensive program based on: „ The “Precautionary Principle,” which is an alternative to the "Risk Assessment" model that says it's acceptable to use a potentially harmful product until physical evidence of its harmful effects are established and deemed too costly from an environmental or public health perspective. For instance, a risk assessment approach might say it's acceptable to use a pesticide until there is direct proof of an environmental impact. The Precautionary Principle approach is used to evaluate whether a given product is safe, whether it is really necessary, and whether alternative products would perform just as well. „ Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Program to minimize the purchase of products containing hazardous ingredients used in the facility's custodial services, fleet maintenance, and facility maintenance in favor of using alternate products that pose less risk to employees and to the environment. „ Integrated Pest Management (IPM) or Less-Toxic Pesticide Program, which uses a pest management approach that minimizes the use of toxic chemicals and gets rid of pests by methods that pose a lower risk to employees, the public, and the environment. „ Energy Efficiency Program including no-cost and low-cost energy conservation and efficiency actions that can reduce both energy consumption and electricity bills, along with long-term energy efficiency investments. Consider the following mechanisms for developing and implementing a comprehensive program: „ Policies January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Objectives „ Educate „ Reduce/Minimize „ Product Substitution Targeted Constituents Sediment Nutrients  Trash Metals  Bacteria Oil and Grease  Organics  SC-35 Safer Alternative Products „ Procedures - Standard operating procedures (SOPs) - Purchasing guidelines and procedures - Bid packages (services and supplies) „ Materials - Preferred or approved product and supplier lists - Product and supplier evaluation criteria - Training sessions and manuals - Fact sheets for employees Implement this BMP in conjunction with the Vehicle and Equipment Management fact sheets (SC20 – SC22) and SC41, Building and Grounds Maintenance. Training „ Employees who handle potentially harmful materials in the use of safer alternatives. „ Purchasing departments should be encouraged to procure less hazardous materials and products that contain little or no harmful substances or TMDL pollutants. Regulations This BMP has no regulatory requirements. Existing regulations already encourage facilities to reduce the use of hazardous materials through incentives such as reduced: „ Specialized equipment storage and handling requirements, „ Storm water runoff sampling requirements, „ Training and licensing requirements, and „ Record keeping and reporting requirements. Equipment „ There are no major equipment requirements to this BMP. Limitations „ Alternative products may not be available, suitable, or effective in every case. Requirements Cost Considerations „ The primary cost is for staff time to: 1) develop new policies and procedures and 2) educate purchasing departments and employees who handle potentially harmful materials about the availability, procurement, and use of safer alternatives. 2 of 5 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Safer Alternative Products SC-35 „ Some alternative products may be slightly more expensive than conventional products. Supplemental Information Employees and contractors / service providers can both be educated about safer alternatives by using information developed by a number of organizations including the references and resources listed below. The following discussion provides some general information on safer alternatives. More specific information on particular hazardous materials and the available alternatives may be found in the references and resources listed below. „ Automotive products – Less toxic alternatives are not available for many automotive products, especially engine fluids. But there are alternatives to grease lubricants, car polishes, degreasers, and windshield washer solution. Rerefined motor oil is also available. „ Vehicle/Trailer lubrication – Fifth wheel bearings on trucks require routine lubrication. Adhesive lubricants are available to replace typical chassis grease. „ Cleaners – Vegetables-based or citrus-based soaps are available to replace petroleum-based soaps/detergents. „ Paint products – Water-based paints, wood preservatives, stains, and finishes are available. „ Pesticides – Specific alternative products or methods exist to control most insects, fungi, and weeds. „ Chemical Fertilizers – Compost and soil amendments are natural alternatives. „ Consumables – Manufacturers have either reduced or are in the process of reducing the amount of heavy metals in consumables such as batteries and fluorescent lamps. All fluorescent lamps contain mercury, however low-mercury containing lamps are now available from most hardware and lighting stores. Fluorescent lamps are also more energy efficient than the average incandescent lamp. „ Janitorial chemicals – Even biodegradable soap can harm fish and wildlife before it biodegrades. Biodegradable does not mean non-toxic. Safer products and procedures are available for floor stripping and cleaning, as well as carpet, glass, metal, and restroom cleaning and disinfecting. Examples There are a number of business and trade associations, and communities with effective programs. Some of the more prominent are listed below in the references and resources section.

Utilizing the protocols in this fact sheet will prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants to stormwater from building and grounds maintenance activities by washing and cleaning up with as little water as possible, following good landscape management practices, preventing and cleaning up spills immediately, keeping debris from entering the storm drains, and maintaining the stormwater collection system. Approach Reduce potential for pollutant discharge through source control pollution prevention and BMP implementation. Successful implementation depends on effective training of employees on applicable BMPs and general pollution prevention strategies and objectives. Pollution Prevention „ Switch to non-toxic chemicals for maintenance when possible. „ Choose cleaning agents that can be recycled. „ Encourage proper lawn management and landscaping, including use of native vegetation. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-41 Building & Grounds Maintenance „ Encourage use of Integrated Pest Management techniques for pest control. „ Encourage proper onsite recycling of yard trimmings. „ Recycle residual paints, solvents, lumber, and other material as much as possible. Suggested Protocols Pressure Washing of Buildings, Rooftops, and Other Large Objects „ In situations where soaps or detergents are used and the surrounding area is paved, pressure washers must use a water collection device that enables collection of wash water and associated solids. A sump pump, wet vacuum or similarly effective device must be used to collect the runoff and loose materials. The collected runoff and solids must be disposed of properly. „ If soaps or detergents are not used, and the surrounding area is paved, wash runoff does not have to be collected but must be screened. Pressure washers must use filter fabric or some other type of screen on the ground and/or in the catch basin to trap the particles in wash water runoff. „ If you are pressure washing on a grassed area (with or without soap), runoff must be dispersed as sheet flow as much as possible, rather than as a concentrated stream. The wash runoff must remain on the grass and not drain to pavement. Landscaping Activities „ Dispose of grass clippings, leaves, sticks, or other collected vegetation as garbage, or by composting. Do not dispose of collected vegetation into waterways or storm drainage systems. „ Use mulch or other erosion control measures on exposed soils. Building Repair, Remodeling, and Construction „ Do not dump any toxic substance or liquid waste on the pavement, the ground, or toward a storm drain. „ Use ground or drop cloths underneath outdoor painting, scraping, and sandblasting work, and properly dispose of collected material daily. „ Use a ground cloth or oversized tub for activities such as paint mixing and tool cleaning. „ Clean paintbrushes and tools covered with water-based paints in sinks connected to sanitary sewers or in portable containers that can be dumped into a sanitary sewer drain. Brushes and tools covered with non-water-based paints, finishes, or other materials must be cleaned in a manner that enables collection of used solvents (e.g., paint thinner, turpentine, etc.) for recycling or proper disposal. „ Use a storm drain cover, filter fabric, or similarly effective runoff control mechanism if dust, grit, wash water, or other pollutants may escape the work area and enter a catch basin. This is particularly necessary on rainy days. The containment device(s) must be in place at the beginning of the work day, and accumulated dirty runoff and solids must be collected and disposed of before removing the containment device(s) at the end of the work day. 2 of 5 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Building & Grounds Maintenance SC-41 „ If you need to de-water an excavation site, you may need to filter the water before discharging to a catch basin or off-site. If directed off-site, you should direct the water through hay bales and filter fabric or use other sediment filters or traps. „ Store toxic material under cover during precipitation events and when not in use. A cover would include tarps or other temporary cover material. Mowing, Trimming, and Planting „ Dispose of leaves, sticks, or other collected vegetation as garbage, by composting or at a permitted landfill. Do not dispose of collected vegetation into waterways or storm drainage systems. „ Use mulch or other erosion control measures when soils are exposed. „ Place temporarily stockpiled material away from watercourses and drain inlets, and berm or cover stockpiles to prevent material releases to the storm drain system. „ Consider an alternative approach when bailing out muddy water: do not put it in the storm drain; pour over landscaped areas. „ Use hand weeding where practical. Fertilizer and Pesticide Management „ Follow all federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing the use, storage, and disposal of fertilizers and pesticides and training of applicators and pest control advisors. „ Use less toxic pesticides that will do the job when applicable. Avoid use of copper-based pesticides if possible. „ Do not use pesticides if rain is expected. „ Do not mix or prepare pesticides for application near storm drains. „ Use the minimum amount needed for the job. „ Calibrate fertilizer distributors to avoid excessive application. „ Employ techniques to minimize off-target application (e.g., spray drift) of pesticides, including consideration of alternative application techniques. „ Apply pesticides only when wind speeds are low. „ Fertilizers should be worked into the soil rather than dumped or broadcast onto the surface. „ Irrigate slowly to prevent runoff and then only as much as is needed. „ Clean pavement and sidewalk if fertilizer is spilled on these surfaces before applying irrigation water. „ Dispose of empty pesticide containers according to the instructions on the container label. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-41 Building & Grounds Maintenance „ Use up the pesticides. Rinse containers, and use rinse water as product. Dispose of unused pesticide as hazardous waste. „ Implement storage requirements for pesticide products with guidance from the local fire department and County Agricultural Commissioner. Provide secondary containment for pesticides. Inspection „ Inspect irrigation system periodically to ensure that the right amount of water is being applied and that excessive runoff is not occurring. Minimize excess watering and repair leaks in the irrigation system as soon as they are observed. Training „ Educate and train employees on pesticide use and in pesticide application techniques to prevent pollution. „ Train employees and contractors in proper techniques for spill containment and cleanup. „ Be sure the frequency of training takes into account the complexity of the operations and the nature of the staff. Spill Response and Prevention „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. „ Place a stockpile of spill cleanup materials, such as brooms, dustpans, and vacuum sweepers (if desired) near the storage area where it will be readily accessible. „ Have employees trained in spill containment and cleanup present during the loading/unloading of dangerous wastes, liquid chemicals, or other materials. „ Familiarize employees with the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan. „ Clean up spills immediately. Other Considerations Alternative pest/weed controls may not be available, suitable, or effective in many cases. Requirements Costs „ Cost will vary depending on the type and size of facility. „ Overall costs should be low in comparison to other BMPs. Maintenance Sweep paved areas regularly to collect loose particles. Wipe up spills with rags and other absorbent material immediately, do not hose down the area to a storm drain. 4 of 5 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Building & Grounds Maintenance SC-41 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 5 of 5 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Fire Sprinkler Line Flushing Building fire sprinkler line flushing may be a source of non-stormwater runoff pollution. The water entering the system is usually potable water, though in some areas it may be non-potable reclaimed wastewater. There are subsequent factors that may drastically reduce the quality of the water in such systems. Black iron pipe is usually used since it is cheaper than potable piping, but it is subject to rusting and results in lower quality water. Initially, the black iron pipe has an oil coating to protect it from rusting between manufacture and installation; this will contaminate the water from the first flush but not from subsequent flushes. Nitrates, poly- phosphates and other corrosion inhibitors, as well as fire suppressants and antifreeze may be added to the sprinkler water system. Water generally remains in the sprinkler system a long time (typically a year) and between flushes may accumulate iron, manganese, lead, copper, nickel, and zinc. The water generally becomes anoxic and contains living and dead bacteria and breakdown products from chlorination. This may result in a significant BOD problem and the water often smells. Consequently dispose fire sprinkler line flush water into the sanitary sewer. Do not allow discharge to storm drain or infiltration due to potential high levels of pollutants in fire sprinkler line water.

The activity may vary from minor and normal building repair to major remodeling, or the construction of new facilities. These activities can generate pollutants including solvents, paints, paint and varnish removers, finishing residues, spent thinners, soap cleaners, kerosene, asphalt and concrete materials, adhesive residues, and old asbestos installation. Protocols in this fact sheet are intended to prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants to stormwater from building repair, remodeling, and construction by using soil erosion controls, enclosing or covering building material storage areas, using good housekeeping practices, using safer alternative products, and training employees. Approach Pollution Prevention „ Recycle residual paints, solvents, lumber, and other materials to the maximum extent practical. „ Buy recycled products to the maximum extent practical. „ Inform on-site contractors of company policy on these matters and include appropriate provisions in their contract to ensure certain proper housekeeping and disposal practices are implemented. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 4 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-42 Building Repair and Construction „ Make sure that nearby storm drains are well marked to minimize the chance of inadvertent disposal of residual paints and other liquids. Suggested Protocols Repair & Remodeling „ Follow BMPs identified in Construction BMP Handbook. „ Maintain good housekeeping practices while work is underway. „ Keep the work site clean and orderly. Remove debris in a timely fashion. Sweep the area. „ Cover materials of particular concern that must be left outside, particularly during the rainy season. „ Do not dump waste liquids down the storm drain. „ Dispose of wash water, sweepings, and sediments properly. „ Store materials properly that are normally used in repair and remodeling such as paints and solvents. „ Sweep out the gutter or wash the gutter and trap the particles at the outlet of the downspout if when repairing roofs, small particles have accumulated in the gutter. A sock or geofabric placed over the outlet may effectively trap the materials. If the downspout is tight lined, place a temporary plug at the first convenient point in the storm drain and pump out the water with a vactor truck, and clean the catch basin sump where you placed the plug. „ Properly store and dispose waste materials generated from construction activities. See Construction BMP Handbook. „ Clean the storm drain system in the immediate vicinity of the construction activity after it is completed. Painting „ Enclose painting operations consistent with local air quality regulations and OSHA. „ Local air pollution regulations may, in many areas of the state, specify painting procedures which if properly carried out are usually sufficient to protect water quality. „ Develop paint handling procedures for proper use, storage, and disposal of paints. „ Transport paint and materials to and from job sites in containers with secure lids and tied down to the transport vehicle. „ Test and inspect spray equipment prior to starting to paint. Tighten all hoses and connections and do not overfill paint containers. „ Mix paint indoors before using so that any spill will not be exposed to rain. Do so even during dry weather because cleanup of a spill will never be 100% effective. „ Transfer and load paint and hot thermoplastic away from storm drain inlets. 2 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Building Repair and Construction SC-42 „ Do not transfer or load paint near storm drain inlets. „ Plug nearby storm drain inlets prior to starting painting and remove plugs when job is complete when there is significant risk of a spill reaching storm drains. „ Cover nearby storm drain inlets prior to starting work if sand blasting is used to remove paint. „ Use a ground cloth to collect the chips if painting requires scraping or sand blasting of the existing surface. Dispose the residue properly. „ Cover or enclose painting operations properly to avoid drift. „ Clean the application equipment in a sink that is connected to the sanitary sewer if using water based paints. „ Capture all cleanup-water and dispose of properly. „ Dispose of paints containing lead or tributyl tin and considered a hazardous waste properly. „ Store leftover paints if they are to be kept for the next job properly, or dispose properly. „ Recycle paint when possible. Dispose of paint at an appropriate household hazardous waste facility. Training Proper education of off-site contractors is often overlooked. The conscientious efforts of well trained employees can be lost by unknowing off-site contractors, so make sure they are well informed about what they are expected to do. Spill Response and Prevention „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. „ Place a stockpile of spill cleanup materials where it will be readily accessible. „ Clean up spills immediately. „ Excavate and remove the contaminated (stained) soil if a spill occurs on dirt. Limitations „ This BMP is for minor construction only. The State’s General Construction Activity Stormwater Permit has more requirements for larger projects. The companion “Construction Best Management Practice Handbook” contains specific guidance and best management practices for larger-scale projects. „ Hazardous waste that cannot be reused or recycled must be disposed of by a licensed hazardous waste hauler. „ Be certain that actions to help stormwater quality are consistent with Cal- and Fed-OSHA and air quality regulations. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 4 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-42 Building Repair and Construction 4 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Requirements Costs These BMPs are generally low to modest in cost. Maintenance N/A Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Soil/Erosion Control If the work involves exposing large areas of soil, employ the appropriate soil erosion and control techniques. See the Construction Best Management Practice Handbook. If old buildings are being torn down and not replaced in the near future, stabilize the site using measures described in SC-40 Contaminated or Erodible Areas. If a building is to be placed over an open area with a storm drainage system, make sure the storm inlets within the building are covered or removed, or the storm line is connected to the sanitary sewer. If because of the remodeling a new drainage system is to be installed or the existing system is to be modified, consider installing catch basins as they serve as effective “in- line” treatment devices. See Treatment Control Fact Sheet TC-20 Wet Pond/Basin in Section 5 of the New Development and Redevelopment Handbook regarding design criteria. Include in the catch basin a “turn-down” elbow or similar device to trap floatables.

The protocols in this fact sheet are intended to prevent or reduce the discharge of pollutants from parking/storage areas and include using good housekeeping practices, following appropriate cleaning BMPs, and training employees. Approach The goal of this program is to ensure stormwater pollution prevention practices are considered when conducting activities on or around parking areas and storage areas to reduce potential for pollutant discharge to receiving waters. Successful implementation depends on effective training of employees on applicable BMPs and general pollution prevention strategies and objectives. Pollution Prevention „ Encourage alternative designs and maintenance strategies for impervious parking lots. (See New Development and Redevelopment BMP Handbook) „ Keep accurate maintenance logs to evaluate BMP implementation. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 4 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-43 Parking/Storage Area Maintenance Suggested Protocols General „ Keep the parking and storage areas clean and orderly. Remove debris in a timely fashion. „ Allow sheet runoff to flow into biofilters (vegetated strip and swale) and/or infiltration devices. „ Utilize sand filters or oleophilic collectors for oily waste in low quantities. „ Arrange rooftop drains to prevent drainage directly onto paved surfaces. „ Design lot to include semi-permeable hardscape. „ Discharge soapy water remaining in mop or wash buckets to the sanitary sewer through a sink, toilet, clean-out, or wash area with drain. Controlling Litter „ Post “No Littering” signs and enforce anti-litter laws. „ Provide an adequate number of litter receptacles. „ Clean out and cover litter receptacles frequently to prevent spillage. „ Provide trash receptacles in parking lots to discourage litter. „ Routinely sweep, shovel, and dispose of litter in the trash. Surface Cleaning „ Use dry cleaning methods (e.g., sweeping, vacuuming) to prevent the discharge of pollutants into the stormwater conveyance system if possible. „ Establish frequency of public parking lot sweeping based on usage and field observations of waste accumulation. „ Sweep all parking lots at least once before the onset of the wet season. „ Follow the procedures below if water is used to clean surfaces: - Block the storm drain or contain runoff. - Collect and pump wash water to the sanitary sewer or discharge to a pervious surface. Do not allow wash water to enter storm drains. - Dispose of parking lot sweeping debris and dirt at a landfill. „ Follow the procedures below when cleaning heavy oily deposits: - Clean oily spots with absorbent materials. - Use a screen or filter fabric over inlet, then wash surfaces. 2 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Parking/Storage Area Maintenance SC-43 - Do not allow discharges to the storm drain. - Vacuum/pump discharges to a tank or discharge to sanitary sewer. - Appropriately dispose of spilled materials and absorbents. Surface Repair „ Preheat, transfer or load hot bituminous material away from storm drain inlets. „ Apply concrete, asphalt, and seal coat during dry weather to prevent contamination from contacting stormwater runoff. „ Cover and seal nearby storm drain inlets where applicable (with waterproof material or mesh) and manholes before applying seal coat, slurry seal, etc. Leave covers in place until job is complete and all water from emulsified oil sealants has drained or evaporated. Clean any debris from these covered manholes and drains for proper disposal. „ Use only as much water as necessary for dust control, to avoid runoff. „ Catch drips from paving equipment that is not in use with pans or absorbent material placed under the machines. Dispose of collected material and absorbents properly. Inspection „ Have designated personnel conduct inspections of parking facilities and stormwater conveyance systems associated with parking facilities on a regular basis. „ Inspect cleaning equipment/sweepers for leaks on a regular basis. Training „ Provide regular training to field employees and/or contractors regarding cleaning of paved areas and proper operation of equipment. „ Train employees and contractors in proper techniques for spill containment and cleanup. Spill Response and Prevention „ Keep your Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan up-to-date. „ Place a stockpile of spill cleanup materials where it will be readily accessible or at a central location. „ Clean up fluid spills immediately with absorbent rags or material. „ Dispose of spilled material and absorbents properly. Other Considerations Limitations related to sweeping activities at large parking facilities may include high equipment costs, the need for sweeper operator training, and the inability of current sweeper technology to remove oil and grease. January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 4 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-43 Parking/Storage Area Maintenance 4 of 4 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Requirements Costs Cleaning/sweeping costs can be quite large. Construction and maintenance of stormwater structural controls can be quite expensive as well. Maintenance „ Sweep parking lot regularly to minimize cleaning with water. „ Clean out oil/water/sand separators regularly, especially after heavy storms. „ Clean parking facilities regularly to prevent accumulated wastes and pollutants from being discharged into conveyance systems during rainy conditions. Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Surface Repair Apply concrete, asphalt, and seal coat during dry weather to prevent contamination from contacting stormwater runoff.

The protocols in this fact sheet are intended to reduce pollutants reaching receiving waters through proper conveyance system operation and maintenance. Approach Pollution Prevention Maintain catch basins, stormwater inlets, and other stormwater conveyance structures on a regular basis to remove pollutants, reduce high pollutant concentrations during the first flush of storms, prevent clogging of the downstream conveyance system, restore catch basins’ sediment trapping capacity, and ensure the system functions properly hydraulically to avoid flooding. Suggested Protocols Catch Basins/Inlet Structures „ Staff should regularly inspect facilities to ensure compliance with the following: - Immediate repair of any deterioration threatening structural integrity. - Cleaning before the sump is 40% full. Catch basins should be cleaned as frequently as needed to meet this standard. - Stenciling of catch basins and inlets (see SC34 Waste Handling and Disposal). January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 6 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-44 Drainage System Maintenance „ Clean catch basins, storm drain inlets, and other conveyance structures before the wet season to remove sediments and debris accumulated during the summer. „ Conduct inspections more frequently during the wet season for problem areas where sediment or trash accumulates more often. Clean and repair as needed. „ Keep accurate logs of the number of catch basins cleaned. „ Store wastes collected from cleaning activities of the drainage system in appropriate containers or temporary storage sites in a manner that prevents discharge to the storm drain. „ Dewater the wastes if necessary with outflow into the sanitary sewer if permitted. Water should be treated with an appropriate filtering device prior to discharge to the sanitary sewer. If discharge to the sanitary sewer is not allowed, water should be pumped or vacuumed to a tank and properly disposed. Do not dewater near a storm drain or stream. Storm Drain Conveyance System „ Locate reaches of storm drain with deposit problems and develop a flushing schedule that keeps the pipe clear of excessive buildup. „ Collect and pump flushed effluent to the sanitary sewer for treatment whenever possible. Pump Stations „ Clean all storm drain pump stations prior to the wet season to remove silt and trash. „ Do not allow discharge to reach the storm drain system when cleaning a storm drain pump station or other facility. „ Conduct routine maintenance at each pump station. „ Inspect, clean, and repair as necessary all outlet structures prior to the wet season. Open Channel „ Modify storm channel characteristics to improve channel hydraulics, increase pollutant removals, and enhance channel/creek aesthetic and habitat value. „ Conduct channel modification/improvement in accordance with existing laws. Any person, government agency, or public utility proposing an activity that will change the natural (emphasis added) state of any river, stream, or lake in California, must enter into a Steam or Lake Alteration Agreement with the Department of Fish and Game. The developer-applicant should also contact local governments (city, county, special districts), other state agencies (SWRCB, RWQCB, Department of Forestry, Department of Water Resources), and Federal Corps of Engineers and USFWS. Illicit Connections and Discharges „ Look for evidence of illegal discharges or illicit connections during routine maintenance of conveyance system and drainage structures: - Is there evidence of spills such as paints, discoloring, etc? 2 of 6 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Drainage System Maintenance SC-44 - Are there any odors associated with the drainage system? - Record locations of apparent illegal discharges/illicit connections? - Track flows back to potential dischargers and conduct aboveground inspections. This can be done through visual inspection of upgradient manholes or alternate techniques including zinc chloride smoke testing, fluorometric dye testing, physical inspection testing, or television camera inspection. - Eliminate the discharge once the origin of flow is established. „ Stencil or demarcate storm drains, where applicable, to prevent illegal disposal of pollutants. Storm drain inlets should have messages such as “Dump No Waste Drains to Stream” stenciled next to them to warn against ignorant or intentional dumping of pollutants into the storm drainage system. „ Refer to fact sheet SC-10 Non-Stormwater Discharges. Illegal Dumping „ Inspect and clean up hot spots and other storm drainage areas regularly where illegal dumping and disposal occurs. „ Establish a system for tracking incidents. The system should be designed to identify the following: - Illegal dumping hot spots - Types and quantities (in some cases) of wastes - Patterns in time of occurrence (time of day/night, month, or year) - Mode of dumping (abandoned containers, “midnight dumping” from moving vehicles, direct dumping of materials, accidents/spills) - Responsible parties „ Post “No Dumping” signs in problem areas with a phone number for reporting dumping and disposal. Signs should also indicate fines and penalties for illegal dumping. „ Refer to fact sheet SC-10 Non-Stormwater Discharges. Training „ Train crews in proper maintenance activities, including record keeping and disposal. „ Allow only properly trained individuals to handle hazardous materials/wastes. „ Have staff involved in detection and removal of illicit connections trained in the following: - OSHA-required Health and Safety Training (29 CFR 1910.120) plus annual refresher training (as needed). January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 3 of 6 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com SC-44 Drainage System Maintenance - OSHA Confined Space Entry training (Cal-OSHA Confined Space, Title 8 and Federal OSHA 29 CFR 1910.146). - Procedural training (field screening, sampling, smoke/dye testing, TV inspection). Spill Response and Prevention „ Investigate all reports of spills, leaks, and/or illegal dumping promptly. „ Clean up all spills and leaks using “dry” methods (with absorbent materials and/or rags) or dig up, remove, and properly dispose of contaminated soil. „ Refer to fact sheet SC-11 Spill Prevention, Control, and Cleanup. Other Considerations (Limitations and Regulations) „ Clean-up activities may create a slight disturbance for local aquatic species. Access to items and material on private property may be limited. Trade-offs may exist between channel hydraulics and water quality/riparian habitat. If storm channels or basins are recognized as wetlands, many activities, including maintenance, may be subject to regulation and permitting. „ Storm drain flushing is most effective in small diameter pipes (36-inch diameter pipe or less, depending on water supply and sediment collection capacity). Other considerations associated with storm drain flushing may include the availability of a water source, finding a downstream area to collect sediments, liquid/sediment disposal, and prohibition against disposal of flushed effluent to sanitary sewer in some areas. „ Regulations may include adoption of substantial penalties for illegal dumping and disposal. „ Local municipal codes may include sections prohibiting discharge of soil, debris, refuse, hazardous wastes, and other pollutants into the storm drain system. Requirements Costs „ An aggressive catch basin cleaning program could require a significant capital and O&M budget. „ The elimination of illegal dumping is dependent on the availability, convenience, and cost of alternative means of disposal. The primary cost is for staff time. Cost depends on how aggressively a program is implemented. Other cost considerations for an illegal dumping program include: - Purchase and installation of signs. - Rental of vehicle(s) to haul illegally-disposed items and material to landfills. - Rental of heavy equipment to remove larger items (e.g., car bodies) from channels. - Purchase of landfill space to dispose of illegally-dumped items and material. 4 of 6 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 Industrial and Commercial www.cabmphandbooks.com Drainage System Maintenance SC-44 „ Methods used for illicit connection detection (smoke testing, dye testing, visual inspection, and flow monitoring) can be costly and time-consuming. Site-specific factors, such as the level of impervious area, the density and ages of buildings, and type of land use will determine the level of investigation necessary. Maintenance „ Two-person teams may be required to clean catch basins with vactor trucks. „ Teams of at least two people plus administrative personnel are required to identify illicit discharges, depending on the complexity of the storm sewer system. „ Arrangements must be made for proper disposal of collected wastes. „ Technical staff are required to detect and investigate illegal dumping violations. Supplemental Information Further Detail of the BMP Storm Drain Flushing Flushing is a common maintenance activity used to improve pipe hydraulics and to remove pollutants in storm drainage systems. Flushing may be designed to hydraulically convey accumulated material to strategic locations, such as an open channel, another point where flushing will be initiated, or the sanitary sewer and the treatment facilities, thus preventing resuspension and overflow of a portion of the solids during storm events. Flushing prevents “plug flow” discharges of concentrated pollutant loadings and sediments. Deposits can hinder the designed conveyance capacity of the storm drain system and potentially cause backwater conditions in severe cases of clogging. Storm drain flushing usually takes place along segments of pipe with grades that are too flat to maintain adequate velocity to keep particles in suspension. An upstream manhole is selected to place an inflatable device that temporarily plugs the pipe. Further upstream, water is pumped into the line to create a flushing wave. When the upstream reach of pipe is sufficiently full to cause a flushing wave, the inflated device is rapidly deflated with the assistance of a vacuum pump, thereby releasing the backed up water and resulting in the cleaning of the storm drain segment. To further reduce impacts of stormwater pollution, a second inflatable device placed well downstream may be used to recollect the water after the force of the flushing wave has dissipated. A pump may then be used to transfer the water and accumulated material to the sanitary sewer for treatment. In some cases, an interceptor structure may be more practical or required to recollect the flushed waters. It has been found that cleansing efficiency of periodic flush waves is dependent upon flush volume, flush discharge rate, sewer slope, sewer length, sewer flow rate, sewer diameter, and population density. As a rule of thumb, the length of line to be flushed should not exceed 700 feet. At this maximum recommended length, the percent removal efficiency ranges between 65- 75% for organics and 55-65% for dry weather grit/inorganic material. The percent removal efficiency drops rapidly beyond that. Water is commonly supplied by a water truck, but fire hydrants can also supply water. To make the best use of water, it is recommended that reclaimed water be used or that fire hydrant line flushing coincide with storm sewer flushing.

Approach Project plan designs for development and redevelopment should include application methods of irrigation water that minimize runoff of excess irrigation water into the stormwater conveyance system. Suitable Applications Appropriate applications include residential, commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. (Detached residential single-family homes are typically excluded from this requirement.) Design Considerations Designing New Installations The following methods to reduce excessive irrigation runoff should be considered, and incorporated and implemented where determined applicable and feasible by the Permittee: „ Employ rain-triggered shutoff devices to prevent irrigation after precipitation. „ Design irrigation systems to each landscape area’s specific water requirements. „ Include design featuring flow reducers or shutoff valves triggered by a pressure drop to control water loss in the event of broken sprinkler heads or lines. „ Implement landscape plans consistent with County or City water conservation resolutions, which may include provision of water sensors, programmable irrigation times (for short cycles), etc. Design Objectives ; Maximize Infiltration ; Provide Retention ; Slow Runoff Minimize Impervious Land Coverage Prohibit Dumping of Improper Materials Contain Pollutants Collect and Convey SD-12 Efficient Irrigation 2 of 2 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com „ Design timing and application methods of irrigation water to minimize the runoff of excess irrigation water into the storm water drainage system. „ Group plants with similar water requirements in order to reduce excess irrigation runoff and promote surface filtration. Choose plants with low irrigation requirements (for example, native or drought tolerant species). Consider design features such as: - Using mulches (such as wood chips or bar) in planter areas without ground cover to minimize sediment in runoff - Installing appropriate plant materials for the location, in accordance with amount of sunlight and climate, and use native plant materials where possible and/or as recommended by the landscape architect - Leaving a vegetative barrier along the property boundary and interior watercourses, to act as a pollutant filter, where appropriate and feasible - Choosing plants that minimize or eliminate the use of fertilizer or pesticides to sustain growth „ Employ other comparable, equally effective methods to reduce irrigation water runoff. Redeveloping Existing Installations Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. The definition of “ redevelopment” must be consulted to determine whether or not the requirements for new development apply to areas intended for redevelopment. If the definition applies, the steps outlined under “designing new installations” above should be followed.

Storm Drain Signage SD-13 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 2 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Description Waste materials dumped into storm drain inlets can have severe impacts on receiving and ground waters. Posting notices regarding discharge prohibitions at storm drain inlets can prevent waste dumping. Storm drain signs and stencils are highly visible source controls that are typically placed directly adjacent to storm drain inlets. Approach The stencil or affixed sign contains a brief statement that prohibits dumping of improper materials into the urban runoff conveyance system. Storm drain messages have become a popular method of alerting the public about the effects of and the prohibitions against waste disposal. Suitable Applications Stencils and signs alert the public to the destination of pollutants discharged to the storm drain. Signs are appropriate in residential, commercial, and industrial areas, as well as any other area where contributions or dumping to storm drains is likely. Design Considerations Storm drain message markers or placards are recommended at all storm drain inlets within the boundary of a development project. The marker should be placed in clear sight facing toward anyone approaching the inlet from either side. All storm drain inlet locations should be identified on the development site map. Designing New Installations The following methods should be considered for inclusion in the project design and show on project plans: „ Provide stenciling or labeling of all storm drain inlets and catch basins, constructed or modified, within the project area with prohibitive language. Examples include “NO DUMPING Design Objectives Maximize Infiltration Provide Retention Slow Runoff Minimize Impervious Land Coverage ; Prohibit Dumping of Improper Materials Contain Pollutants Collect and Convey SD-13 Storm Drain Signage 2 of 2 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com – DRAINS TO OCEAN” and/or other graphical icons to discourage illegal dumping. „ Post signs with prohibitive language and/or graphical icons, which prohibit illegal dumping at public access points along channels and creeks within the project area. Note - Some local agencies have approved specific signage and/or storm drain message placards for use. Consult local agency stormwater staff to determine specific requirements for placard types and methods of application. Redeveloping Existing Installations Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. If the project meets the definition of “redevelopment”, then the requirements stated under “ designing new installations” above should be included in all project design plans. Additional Information Maintenance Considerations „ Legibility of markers and signs should be maintained. If required by the agency with jurisdiction over the project, the owner/operator or homeowner’s association should enter into a maintenance agreement with the agency or record a deed restriction upon the property title to maintain the legibility of placards or signs. Placement „ Signage on top of curbs tends to weather and fade. „ Signage on face of curbs tends to be worn by contact with vehicle tires and sweeper brooms. Supplemental Information Examples „ Most MS4 programs have storm drain signage programs. Some MS4 programs will provide stencils, or arrange for volunteers to stencil storm drains as part of their outreach program.

Maintenance Bays & Docks SD-31 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 2 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Description Several measures can be taken to prevent operations at maintenance bays and loading docks from contributing a variety of toxic compounds, oil and grease, heavy metals, nutrients, suspended solids, and other pollutants to the stormwater conveyance system. Approach In designs for maintenance bays and loading docks, containment is encouraged. Preventative measures include overflow containment structures and dead-end sumps. However, in the case of loading docks from grocery stores and warehouse/distribution centers, engineered infiltration systems may be considered. Suitable Applications Appropriate applications include commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. Design Considerations Design requirements for vehicle maintenance and repair are governed by Building and Fire Codes, and by current local agency ordinances, and zoning requirements. The design criteria described in this fact sheet are meant to enhance and be consistent with these code requirements. Designing New Installations Designs of maintenance bays should consider the following: „ Repair/maintenance bays and vehicle parts with fluids should be indoors; or designed to preclude urban run-on and runoff. „ Repair/maintenance floor areas should be paved with Portland cement concrete (or equivalent smooth impervious surface). Design Objectives Maximize Infiltration Provide Retention Slow Runoff Minimize Impervious Land Coverage ; Prohibit Dumping of Improper Materials ; Contain Pollutants Collect and Convey SD-31 Maintenance Bays & Docks 2 of 2 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com „ Repair/maintenance bays should be designed to capture all wash water leaks and spills. Provide impermeable berms, drop inlets, trench catch basins, or overflow containment structures around repair bays to prevent spilled materials and wash-down waters form entering the storm drain system. Connect drains to a sump for collection and disposal. Direct connection of the repair/maintenance bays to the storm drain system is prohibited. If required by local jurisdiction, obtain an Industrial Waste Discharge Permit. „ Other features may be comparable and equally effective. The following designs of loading/unloading dock areas should be considered: „ Loading dock areas should be covered, or drainage should be designed to preclude urban run-on and runoff. „ Direct connections into storm drains from depressed loading docks (truck wells) are prohibited. „ Below-grade loading docks from grocery stores and warehouse/distribution centers of fresh food items should drain through water quality inlets, or to an engineered infiltration system, or an equally effective alternative. Pre-treatment may also be required. „ Other features may be comparable and equally effective. Redeveloping Existing Installations Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. The definition of “ redevelopment” must be consulted to determine whether or not the requirements for new development apply to areas intended for redevelopment. If the definition applies, the steps outlined under “designing new installations” above should be followed. Additional Information Stormwater and non-stormwater will accumulate in containment areas and sumps with impervious surfaces. Contaminated accumulated water must be disposed of in accordance with applicable laws and cannot be discharged directly to the storm drain or sanitary sewer system without the appropriate permit.

Trash Storage Areas SD-32 January 2003 California Stormwater BMP Handbook 1 of 2 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com Description Trash storage areas are areas where a trash receptacle (s) are located for use as a repository for solid wastes. Stormwater runoff from areas where trash is stored or disposed of can be polluted. In addition, loose trash and debris can be easily transported by water or wind into nearby storm drain inlets, channels, and/or creeks. Waste handling operations that may be sources of stormwater pollution include dumpsters, litter control, and waste piles. Approach This fact sheet contains details on the specific measures required to prevent or reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff associated with trash storage and handling. Preventative measures including enclosures, containment structures, and impervious pavements to mitigate spills, should be used to reduce the likelihood of contamination. Suitable Applications Appropriate applications include residential, commercial and industrial areas planned for development or redevelopment. (Detached residential single-family homes are typically excluded from this requirement.) Design Considerations Design requirements for waste handling areas are governed by Building and Fire Codes, and by current local agency ordinances and zoning requirements. The design criteria described in this fact sheet are meant to enhance and be consistent with these code and ordinance requirements. Hazardous waste should be handled in accordance with legal requirements established in Title 22, California Code of Regulation. Wastes from commercial and industrial sites are typically hauled by either public or commercial carriers that may have design or access requirements for waste storage areas. The design criteria in this fact sheet are recommendations and are not intended to be in conflict with requirements established by the waste hauler. The waste hauler should be contacted prior to the design of your site trash collection areas. Conflicts or issues should be discussed with the local agency. Designing New Installations Trash storage areas should be designed to consider the following structural or treatment control BMPs: „ Design trash container areas so that drainage from adjoining roofs and pavement is diverted around the area(s) to avoid run-on. This might include berming or grading the waste handling area to prevent run-on of stormwater. „ Make sure trash container areas are screened or walled to prevent off-site transport of trash. Design Objectives Maximize Infiltration Provide Retention Slow Runoff Minimize Impervious Land Coverage Prohibit Dumping of Improper Materials ; Contain Pollutants Collect and Convey SD-32 Trash Storage Areas 2 of 2 California Stormwater BMP Handbook January 2003 New Development and Redevelopment www.cabmphandbooks.com „ Use lined bins or dumpsters to reduce leaking of liquid waste. „ Provide roofs, awnings, or attached lids on all trash containers to minimize direct precipitation and prevent rainfall from entering containers. „ Pave trash storage areas with an impervious surface to mitigate spills. „ Do not locate storm drains in immediate vicinity of the trash storage area. „ Post signs on all dumpsters informing users that hazardous materials are not to be disposed of therein. Redeveloping Existing Installations Various jurisdictional stormwater management and mitigation plans (SUSMP, WQMP, etc.) define “redevelopment” in terms of amounts of additional impervious area, increases in gross floor area and/or exterior construction, and land disturbing activities with structural or impervious surfaces. The definition of “ redevelopment” must be consulted to determine whether or not the requirements for new development apply to areas intended for redevelopment. If the definition applies, the steps outlined under “designing new installations” above should be followed. Additional Information Maintenance Considerations The integrity of structural elements that are subject to damage (i.e., screens, covers, and signs) must be maintained by the owner/operator. Maintenance agreements between the local agency and the owner/operator may be required. Some agencies will require maintenance deed restrictions to be recorded of the property title. If required by the local agency, maintenance agreements or deed restrictions must be executed by the owner/operator before improvement plans are approved.

(SCG) for Birtcher Development, SCG Project No. 20G176-1. Mr. Rankin: In accordance with your request, we have conducted infiltration testing at the subject site. We are pleased to present this report summarizing the results of the infiltration testing and our design recommendations. Scope of Services The scope of services performed for this project was in general accordance with our Proposal No. 20P206R2, dated July 1, 2020. The scope of services included site reconnaissance, subsurface exploration, field testing, and engineering analysis to determine the infiltration rates of the on-site soils. The infiltration testing was performed in general accordance with the guidelines published in Riverside County – Low Impact Development BMP Design Handbook – Section 2.3 of Appendix A, prepared for the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health (RCDEH), dated December, 2013. The San Bernardino County standards defer to the guidelines published by the RCDEH. Site and Project Description The subject site is located on the west side of Banana Avenue, 300± feet south of Santa Ana Avenue in Fontana, California. The site is bounded to the north by Santa Ana Avenue and single-family residences, to the west by a truck and trailer storage lot, to the south by Rose Avenue, and to the east by Banana Avenue. The general location of the site is illustrated on the Site Location Map, enclosed as Plate 1 in Appendix A of this report. The site consists of several contiguous rectangular-shaped parcels which total 14.885± acres in size. Based on aerial photographs obtained from Google Earth, the two southern parcels and western parcel are developed as truck and trailer storage lots with office buildings ranging from Proposed Terminal/Warehouse Building – Fontana, CA Project No. 20G176-2 Page 2 1,200 to 3,000± ft² in size. The office buildings appear to be single-story structures of wood frame construction and assumed to be supported on conventional shallow foundations with concrete slab-on-grade floors. The ground surface surrounding the buildings appears to consist of asphaltic concrete pavements. The northern parcels appear to be developed with commercial buildings ranging from 1,500 to 5,500± ft² in size. The buildings appear to be single-story structures of wood or metal frame and assumed to be supported on conventional shallow foundations with concrete slab-on-grade floors. The buildings are surrounded by crushed aggregate base (CAB) or asphaltic concrete pavements. Detailed topographic information was not available at the time of this report. Based on visual observations made at the time of the subsurface investigation and from elevation data obtained from Google Earth, the northern area’s topography slopes gently to the south at a gradient of 1.5± percent. The topography within the southern area also slopes gently to the south at a gradient of less than 1± percent. Proposed Development Based on a site plan (Scheme 2) provided to our office by the client, the site will be developed with one (1) terminal building, 65,230± ft² in size. The building will be located in the southeastern area of the site and will be constructed with dock-high doors along both the east and west building walls. The building will be surrounded by asphaltic concrete pavements in the automobile parking and drive areas, Portland cement concrete pavements in the truck court, and areas of concrete flatwork and landscape planters. The proposed development will include on-site infiltration to dispose of storm water. We understand the infiltration system will consist of a below grade system located in the eastern area of the site. The bottom of the proposed systems will be approximately 10± feet below the existing site grades. Concurrent Study Southern California Geotechnical, Inc. (SCG) recently conducted a geotechnical investigation at the subject site. As a part of this study, eight (8) borings were advanced to depths of 10 to 25± feet below existing site grades. Boring No. B-4 was drilled through existing Asphaltic Concrete pavement. The pavement section at this location consists of 2± inches of AC with no discernable aggregate base. Artificial fill was encountered beneath the ground surface or pavement at Boring Nos. B-4, B-6, and B-7. The artificial fill soils consist of loose to medium dense silty fine sands and silty fine to medium sands with trace fine gravel and trace to little medium to coarse sands. Native alluvium was encountered at each of the eight (8) boring locations, extending to at least the maximum explored depth of 50± feet below existing site grades. The shallow native alluvium extending to 8± feet below the ground surface consists mainly of loose to medium dense silty fine to medium sands, fine to coarse sands, silty fine to coarse sands, fine sandy silts, silty fine sands, gravelly fine to coarse sands with occasional dense silty fine sand and gravelly fine to coarse sands with variable silt, cobble, and gravel content. Dense to very dense fine to coarse sands, were also encountered within the shallow alluvium with little fine to coarse gravel and trace silt. At depths greater than 8± feet, the Proposed Terminal/Warehouse Building – Fontana, CA Project No. 20G176-2 Page 3 alluvium consists of medium dense fine sandy silts, silty fine sands, silty fine to medium sands, and loose to medium dense fine to coarse sands. Groundwater Groundwater was not encountered at any of the borings. Based on the lack of any water within the borings, and the moisture contents of the recovered soil samples, the static groundwater table is considered to have existed at a depth in excess of 25± feet below existing site grades, at the time of the subsurface investigation. As part of our research, we reviewed readily available groundwater data in order to determine regional groundwater depths. Recent water level data was obtained from the California Department of Water Resources, Water Data Library Station Map, website, https://wdl.water.ca.gov/waterdatalibrary/Home.aspx. One monitoring well on record is located approximately 3,294± feet southeast of the site. Water level readings within this monitoring well indicate a high groundwater level of 225± feet below the ground surface, in January 2000. Subsurface Exploration Scope of Exploration The subsurface exploration conducted for the infiltration testing consisted of three (3) infiltration test borings, advanced to a depth of 10± feet below the existing site grades. The infiltration borings were advanced using a truck-mounted drilling rig, equipped with 8-inch- diameter hollow-stem augers and were logged during drilling by a member of our staff. The approximate locations of the infiltration test borings (identified as I-1 through I-3) are indicated on the Infiltration Test Location Plan, enclosed as Plate 2 of this report. Upon the completion of the infiltration borings, the bottom of each test boring was covered with 2± inches of clean ¾-inch gravel. A sufficient length of 3-inch-diameter perforated PVC casing was then placed into each test hole so that the PVC casing extended from the bottom of the test hole to the ground surface. Clean ¾-inch gravel was then installed in the annulus surrounding the PVC casing. Geotechnical Conditions Native alluvial soils were encountered at the ground surface at all of the infiltration boring locations, extending to at least the maximum depth explored of 10± feet below existing site grades. The alluvium generally consists of medium dense silty fine sands, fine to coarse sands, loose fine sandy silts and silty fine sands, and loose to very dense fine to medium sands. Trace to little fine to coarse gravel and silt content were encountered within the alluvial soils. At Boring No. I-3, trace clay content was encountered at depths of 5½ to 8± feet below existing site grades. The Boring Logs, which illustrate the conditions encountered at the boring locations, are included with this report. Proposed Terminal/Warehouse Building – Fontana, CA Project No. 20G176-2 Page 4 Infiltration Testing As previously mentioned, the infiltration testing was performed in general accordance with the guidelines published in Riverside County – Low Impact Development BMP Design Handbook – Section 2.3 of Appendix A, which apply to San Bernardino County. Pre-soaking In accordance with the county infiltration standards for sandy soils, all infiltration test borings were pre-soaked 2 hours prior to the infiltration testing or until all of the water had percolated through the test holes. The pre-soaking process consisted of filling test borings by inverting a full 5-gallon bottle of clear water supported over each hole so that the water flow into the hole holds constant at a level at least 5 times the hole’s radius above the gravel at the bottom of each hole. Pre-soaking was completed after all of the water had percolated through the test holes. Infiltration Testing Following the pre-soaking process of the infiltration test borings, SCG performed the infiltration testing. Each test hole was filled with water to a depth of at least 5 times the hole’s radius above the gravel at the bottom of the test holes. In accordance with the San Bernardino County guidelines, since “sandy soils” were encountered at the bottom of all of the infiltration test borings (where 6 inches of water infiltrated into the surrounding soils for two consecutive 25- minute readings), readings were taken at 10-minute intervals, 3-minute intervals, and 1-minute intervals for a total of 1 hour at three (3) test locations. After each reading, water was added to the borings so that the depth of the water was at least 5 times the radius of the hole. The water level readings are presented on the spreadsheets enclosed with this report. The infiltration rates for each of the timed intervals are also tabulated on the spreadsheets. The infiltration rates from the test are tabulated in inches per hour. In accordance with the typically accepted practice, it is recommended that the most conservative reading from the latter part of the infiltration tests be used as the design infiltration rate. The rates are summarized below: Infiltration Test No. Depth (feet) Soil Description Infiltration Rate (inches/hour) I-1 10 Brown fine Sandy Silt, little medium to coarse Sand, trace fine Gravel 2.2 I-2 10 Gray Brown fine to medium Sand, little Silt, trace coarse Sand 19.8 I-3 10 Gray Brown fine to medium Sand, trace silt, trace coarse Sand, trace Clay nodules 23.7 Proposed Terminal/Warehouse Building – Fontana, CA Project No. 20G176-2 Page 5 Laboratory Testing Moisture Content The moisture contents for the recovered soil samples within the borings were determined in accordance with ASTM D-2216 and are expressed as a percentage of the dry weight. These test results are presented on the Boring Logs. Grain Size Analysis The grain size distribution of selected soils collected from the base of each infiltration test boring have been determined using a range of wire mesh screens. These tests were performed in general accordance with ASTM D-422 and/or ASTM D-1140. The weight of the portion of the sample retained on each screen is recorded and the percentage finer or coarser of the total weight is calculated. The results of these tests are presented on Plates C-1 through C-3 of this report. Design Recommendations Three (3) infiltration tests were performed at the subject site. As noted above, the infiltration rates at these locations vary from 2.2 to 23.7 inches per hour. Based on the infiltration test results from Infiltration Test Nos. I-1 and I-2, we recommend a design infiltration rate of 19.8 inches per hour be used for Infiltration System 1, if the bottom of the infiltration system is founded in the well-graded sands. If the bottom of the infiltration system is founded is sandy silts, we recommend that the geotechnical representative be contacted for additional/alternative recommendations. Based on the results of Infiltration Test No. I-3, we recommend a design infiltration rate of 23.7 inches per hour be used for the proposed below-grade chamber system located in the northwestern area. These results are summarized below: Infiltration System Rate (inches per hour) 1 19.8 2 23.7 We recommend that a representative from the geotechnical engineer be on-site during the construction of the proposed infiltration systems to identify the soil classification at the base of each system. It should be confirmed that the soils at the base of the proposed infiltration systems correspond with those presented in this report to ensure that the performance of the systems will be consistent with the rates reported herein. The design of the storm water infiltration system should be performed by the project civil engineer, in accordance with the City of Fontana and/or County of San Bernardino guidelines. It is recommended that the system be constructed so as to facilitate removal of silt and clay, or other deleterious materials from any water that may enter the systems. The presence of such materials would decrease the effective infiltration rates. It is recommended that the project civil engineer apply an appropriate factor of safety. The infiltration rate recommended above is based on the assumption that only clean water will be introduced to the subsurface profile. Any fines, debris, or organic materials could Proposed Terminal/Warehouse Building – Fontana, CA Project No. 20G176-2 Page 6 significantly impact the infiltration rate. It should be noted that the recommended infiltration rates are based on infiltration testing at three (3) discrete locations and that the overall infiltration rates of the proposed infiltration systems could vary considerably. Construction Considerations The infiltration rates presented in this report are specific to the tested locations and tested depths. Infiltration rates can be significantly reduced if the soils are exposed to excessive disturbance or compaction during construction. Therefore, the subgrade soils within proposed infiltration system areas should not be over-excavated, undercut or compacted in any significant manner. It is recommended that a note to this effect be added to the project plans and/or specifications. Infiltration versus Permeability Infiltration rates are based on unsaturated flow. As water is introduced into soils by infiltration, the soils become saturated and the wetting front advances from the unsaturated zone to the saturated zone. Once the soils become saturated, infiltration rates become zero, and water can only move through soils by hydraulic conductivity at a rate determined by pressure head and soil permeability. The infiltration rate presented herein was determined in accordance with the San Bernardino County guidelines and is considered valid for the time and place of the actual test. Changes in soil moisture content will affect the infiltration rate. Infiltration rates should be expected to decrease until the soils become saturated. Soil permeability values will then govern groundwater movement. Permeability values may be on the order of 10 to 20 times less than infiltration rates. The system designer should incorporate adequate factors of safety and allow for overflow design into appropriate traditional storm drain systems, which would transport storm water off-site. Location of Infiltration System The use of on-site storm water infiltration systems carries a risk of creating adverse geotechnical conditions. Increasing the moisture content of the soil can cause the soil to lose internal shear strength and increase its compressibility, resulting in a change in the designed engineering properties. Overlying structures and pavements in the infiltration area could potentially be damaged due to saturation of subgrade soils. The proposed infiltration system for this site should be located at least 25 feet away from any structures, including retaining walls. Even with this provision of locating the infiltration system at least 25 feet from the building, it is possible that infiltrating water into the subsurface soils could have an adverse effect on the proposed or existing structures. It should also be noted that utility trenches which happen to collect storm water can also serve as conduits to transmit storm water toward the structure, depending on the slope of the utility trench. Therefore, consideration should also be given to the proposed locations of underground utilities which may pass near the proposed infiltration system.
