<br /> i) Describe the prevailing wind directions and nearby industrial or populated areas.
<br /> 2) Do active or abandoned industrial, at,
<br /> ricultural, domestic, or groundwater wells exist on the
<br /> property? if yes, provide a map showing their location(s). Include available data on the depth of
<br /> ,7oundwater and information on aquifers and aquitards identified beneath the property.
<br /> _) Describe all site activities which generate storm/wastewater. Describe the average and maximum
<br /> volume of each waste stream discharged as well as combined volume discharge. Describe any
<br /> daily or seasonal variations in volume and the total discharged. Describe anticipated storm/
<br /> wastewater flow trends for the next len years, is flow anticipated to increase or decrease?
<br /> 4) Describe the quality of the stone/wastewater. The description should include maximum and
<br /> averaLle concentrations of BOD, suspended matter, total nitrogen, electrical conductivity, total
<br /> dissolved solids (fixed and volatile), pH, and standard minerals. Describe seasonal variations. If
<br /> anal,,iical data is not available, estimates of storm/wastewater quality can be provided with
<br /> references.
<br /> 5) Provide a description of the groundwater in the stormwater pond area, at the bulk material storage
<br /> area, and at the blending and curing areas. Groundwater characterization shall include the
<br /> following analytical parameters: nitrate, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, pH, and
<br /> standard minerals.
<br /> 6) Provide a flow diagram of any storm/wastewater treatment planned. Include a map showing the
<br /> locations of all treatment equipment, clarifiers, sumps, or pump stations. Describe procedures to
<br /> control contaminants in the storm/wastewater streams and in the stormwater pond.
<br /> 7) Describe opportunities to reduce, reuse, or recycle storm/wastewater. Also describe the effect on
<br /> storm/wvastewater quality of recycling activities.
<br /> 8) Describe the storage/disposal of all domestic wastewater. If septic systems are used for disposal of
<br /> domestic wastewater, include descriptions of the septic systems and the planned maintenance of
<br /> the systems. The descriptions shall include location, flow rate, size, and construction materials, as
<br /> well as leachfield size and location. Have the leachfield(s) ever failed?
<br /> 9) If improvements to the stormwater pond are planned, provide diagrams and a description of the
<br /> planned impoundment, location, size and depth, construction materials, inlet and outlets, depth to
<br /> groundwater below the bottom of the pond, and existing or planned groundwater monitoring wells.
<br /> Has the stormwater pond ever overflowed?
<br /> 10) Allowing for two feet of freeboard, what is the approximate storage capacity of the
<br /> storm/wastewater pond? Provide a water balance which evaluates the pond's ability to provide
<br /> sufficient capacity on a month by month basis. Include monthly evaporation, precipitation, and
<br /> irrigation rates as well as monthly discharge volumes. Rainfall shall be based on the 100-year
<br /> return period total annual precipitation. Specific information in the analysis should include, at a
<br /> minimum, the following: soil types, infiltration rate, low permeability zones and an evaluation of
<br /> their continuity, groundwater occurrence, depth to groundwater, groundwater gradient, and
<br /> groundwater quality.
