10. The pesticidc shall be applicd according to labcl directions. Yesticides should bc mixed, anc equipmcnt <br /> cicaned, in an arca whcre accidental spills H•ill not enter surface or groundµ�aters,and «�ill not <br /> � contaminate the soil. Rinseate from equipment cicanine and/or triple-rinsing of pesticide containers <br /> should be used as product. _ <br /> 1 l. The application equipment used should be capable of immediate shutoff in the event of an emergenc}�. <br /> 42.2.11 BhII'S2,p0 MAINTENANCE OF STORM DRAINAGE FACII.ITIES <br /> Without proper maintennnce of stormwater facilitics,sediment and other debris can quickly clug facilities, <br /> making them useless. Rchabilitatiun of such facilities is difficult and cxpensive. Polluted water and sediments <br /> rcmovcd during ihe cleaning operation must ba properly disposed of. Stortn�'ater treatment facilities shall be <br /> maini:�ined according to criteria or procedures oresented m Section 3-1. <br /> 4- 3A'D'S2.lU LOCATING ILLICIT CONNECTIONS TO STORM DRAINS <br /> Illicit ccnn sanitary or process wastewater drains located in a building that discharge to the storm <br /> drain, racher than ' ary sewer. An allowable exception is noncontact cooling water,which may be <br /> discharged to a storm r <br /> Experience has shown that illicit com very common, even in buildings constructed as late as the <br /> 1960's. Building owners arc scldom nware in fines sre improperly connected since their sewer bills <br /> are tied to watcr use. <br /> Redevclopment projects shall check existing buildings for illicit conn iq�can be contacted for <br /> additional information. <br /> 4-2.2.13 BNII'S2.20 PRNATE STREET AND PARHING LOT SV1'EEPING <br /> Private stteeUparking lot sweeping should bc implemented for sitcs with high impervious cover and to improve —" <br /> runoff quality from ea�sting devclopment sites. Sweeping rcCcrs to the rcmoval of accumulated dust,dirt and <br /> debris ftom impervious surfaces with the use of rr.echanical cleaners. Sites which exhibit high levels of sediment <br /> on impervious surfaces should also implement uggressivc source control measures to prevent accumulation of <br /> such sediments. <br /> While traditional strecdparking lot swecping has shown limited cffectivencss at improving water qualih•there is <br /> evidence that it can bc efiectivc when better equipment and operating proccdures are used. The most efficient <br /> types of sweepers, such as regencrative air cicaners or vacuum s���eepers, should be used. • <br /> METHODS TO MAXIMIZE SWEEPIIQG EFFICIENCY <br /> 1. Maltiple passes should bc mude. Generally speaking,one pass can remove 50%of available solids,two <br /> passes provide 75%removal. <br /> 2. The frequcncy of sweeping private sveeu and parking areas with high pollutant loadings should be <br /> increascd,particularly m industrial areas. Weekh�cleaning of private streets will provide more removal <br /> efficiency; less frequent sweeping will uccomplish little. <br /> 3. Vacuum or resenerative air sweepers ure the most effective in removing the small particles most <br /> associated with pollutants. <br /> i 4. Operators should be trained to attain maximum swecper perfortnance. Sweeper speed,brush adjustment <br /> and rotation rate,sweeping pattcm, maneuvering around parked vehicles, interim storage and disposal <br /> methods all affect pollutant removal. <br /> 4-2-16 <br />
