Project Description: The Storm Water Management Plan consists of Best Management Practices (BMPs) under six Minimum Control Measures that is required for coverage under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II General Permit for storm water discharges from Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (Small MS4s). The MS4 permit was recently revised and additional reporting and measurement requirements have been adopted and will be phased in over the next 3 years. Justification: Urban runoff is a leading cause of pollution throughout the State. Development and implementation of the UWMP is required for compliance with the NPDES Small MS4 Phase II General Permit for storm water discharges to protect water quality and control urban runoff.
