Part II.Your Proposed Storm Water Quality Management Program This application requires you to identify Best Management Practices(BMPs) currently performed by your MS4,and provide information on your planned storm water management program and proposed BMPs. The following six sections correspond to the six minimum control measures for a Phase II storm water quality management program. Minimum Control Measures The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES) Phase II Rule defines a storm water management program composed of six minimum control measures that, when implemented together, are expected to reduce pollutants discharged into receiving water bodies to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP). The six control measures include: 1. Public Education and Outreach on Storm Water Impacts 2. Public Involvement/Participation 3. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination 4. Construction Site Runoff Control 5. Post-Construction Storm Water Management in New Development and Redevelopment 6. Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations Each minimum control measure requires the selection and implementation of BMPs that comprehensively address the specific storm water issues in your area. The minimum requirements are provided in Appendix I as the minimum level necessary to comply with 40 CFR 122.34. Regulatory guidance from 40 CFR 122.34 is also provided for each minimum control measure. Additional guidance on selecting BMPs and developing measurable goals can be found at the following EPA website: http://www.cfpub.epa.gov/npdes/stormwater/measurablegoals/index.cfm. Instructions: For each minimum control measure, state your control objective and describe BMPs selected for implementation in your jurisdiction. For each BMP, include a brief description, measurable goal, and milestones as appropriate towards achieving that goal. Indicate if the BMP is part of an existing program, and if another entity will share responsibility for implementing the BMP. In cases where another entity will perform one or more BMPs or components thereof on behalf of the permittee, specifically describe the activities each entity will conduct, and include reference to legal agreement where appropriate. List as many BMPs as necessary to fulfill the requirements of 40 CFR 122.34 as referenced in Appendix I. If you have more than 2 BMPs for a control measure,copy/paste additional tables as necessary, or attach additional sheets. M4193c.
