I <br /> 1 <br /> IV-4 Soil Erosion, Sediment Control, and <br /> Landscaping Source Control BMPs <br /> S407 BMPs for Dust Control at Disturbed Land <br /> Areas and Unpaved Roadways and Parking Lots <br /> I <br /> Note:Contact the local air quality authority for appropriate and required BMPs for dust control to <br /> implement at your project site. Use the following website to determine the air quality authority for the <br /> project site: <br /> https://ecology.wa.gov/About-us/Our-role-in-the-community/Partnerships-committees/Clean-air- <br /> agenciesI <br /> Description of Pollutant Sources: Dust can cause air and water pollution problems particularly at <br /> demolition sites and in arid areas where reduced rainfall exposes soil particles to transport by air. <br /> I <br /> Pollutant Control Approach: Minimize dust generation and apply environmentally friendly and <br /> government approved dust suppressant chemicals, if necessary. <br /> 111 <br /> Applicable Operational BMPs: <br /> • Sprinkle or wet down soil or dust with water as long as it does not result in a wastewater disI <br /> - <br /> charge. <br /> • Use only dust suppressant chemicals that are approved by the local jurisdiction and/or state <br /> 111 <br /> government approved dust suppressant chemicals such as those listed in Alternatives to Haz- <br /> ardous Materials: Techniques for Dust Prevention and Suppression(Ecology, 2016b). <br /> • Avoid excessive and repeated applications of dust suppressant chemicals.Time the applicI <br /> - <br /> ation of dust suppressants to avoid or minimize their wash-off by rainfall or human activity <br /> such as irrigation. <br /> • Apply stormwater containment to prevent the conveyance of sediment into storm drains or <br /> receiving waters. <br /> • Protect inlets/catch basins during application of dust suppressants. <br /> • Ecology prohibits the use of motor oil for dust control.Take care when using lignin derivatives <br /> and other high BOD chemicals in areas susceptible to contaminating surface water or groundI <br /> water. <br /> • Consult with Ecology and the local permitting authority on discharge permit requirements if <br /> the dust suppression process results in a wastewater discharge to the ground, ground water, <br /> storm drain,or surface water. <br /> • Street gutters, sidewalks,driveways,and other paved surfaces in the immediate area of the <br /> activity must be swept regularly to collect and properly dispose of dust,dirt, loose debris,and <br /> garbage. <br /> I <br /> 2019 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington <br /> Volume IV-Chapter 4-Page 521 <br />
