Application of agricultural chemicals, including fertilizers and pesticides, shall be conducted in a <br />manner and at application rates that will not result in loss of chemical to stormwater runoff. <br />Manufacturers' recommendations for application rates and procedures shall be followed. <br />BMPs shall be used to prevent or treat contamination of stormwater runoff by pH modifying <br />sources. These sources include, but are not limited to, bulk cement, cement kiln dust, fly ash, <br />new concrete washing and curing waters, waste streams generated from concrete grinding and <br />sawing, exposed aggregate processes, and concrete pumping and mixer washout waters. <br />Stormwater discharges shall not cause or contribute to a violation of the water quality standard for <br />pH in the receiving water. Several BMPs applicable to this project include: <br />• Concrete Handling (BMP C151) <br />• Sawcutting and Surfacing Pollution Prevention (BMP C152) <br />• Material Delivery, Storage, and Containment (BMP C153) <br />• Concrete Washout Area (BMP C154) <br />• Construction sites with significant concrete work shall adjust the pH of stormwater if <br />necessary to prevent violations of water quality standards (BMP C250, BMP C251, <br />BMP C252, and BMP C253). <br />The Contractor may elect to follow the detailed guidance on control of non -sediment pollutants, <br />as outlined in the SWMMWW (selected BMPs are included as Appendix B). <br />Table 1 below lists several pollutants that are commonly found on construction sites that have the <br />potential to contaminate storm runoff. These pollutants will be present mainly in areas of building <br />and pavement construction. The Contractor and CESCL will be responsible for identifying areas <br />where these pollutants are being used and will monitor runoff coming from these areas. Pollutant <br />sources will be covered with plastic if contaminated runoff is observed from these areas. If <br />contaminated runoff is found in the sediment trap or soils, the CESCL will direct the Contractor to <br />remove the polluted water/soil and dispose of it in an approved area offsite. <br />Table 1 — Potential Construction Site Stormwater Pollutants <br />Trade Name <br />Chemical/Physical <br />Stormwater <br />Material <br />Description(') <br />Pollutants(') <br />Pesticides (insecticides, <br />Various colored to colorless <br />Chlorinated hydrocarbons, <br />fungicides, herbicide, <br />liquid, powder, pellets, or grains <br />organophosphates, carbamates, <br />rodenticides) <br />arsenic <br />Fertilizer <br />Liquid or solid grains <br />Nitrogen, phosphorous <br />Plaster <br />White granules or powder <br />Calcium sulphate, calcium <br />carbonate, sulfuric acid <br />Cleaning solvents <br />Colorless, blue, or yellow -green <br />Perch loroethylene, methylene <br />liquid <br />chloride, trichloroethylene, <br />petroleum distillates <br />Asphalt <br />Black solid <br />Oil, petroleum distillates <br />Concrete <br />White solid <br />Limestone, sand <br />Glue, adhesives <br />White or yellow liquid <br />Polymers, epoxies <br />Paints <br />Various colored liquid <br />Metal oxides, stoddard solvent, <br />talc, calcium carbonate, arsenic <br />Curing compounds <br />Creamy white liquid <br />Naphtha <br />Wastewater from construction <br />Water <br />Soil, oil & grease, solids <br />equipment washing <br />Construction StPollution Prevention Plan 101DOM <br />Everett 7-Eleven <br />Parking <br />Expansion 6 <br />2180309.11 <br />
