Foothill Landfill Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Page 15 1.0 Amended General Permit 2014-0057-DWQ Requirements The Industrial General Storm Water Permit requires that the SWPPP be retained on site and made available upon request of a representative of the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and/or the local storm water management agency that receives storm water discharges. Either a paper or electronic copy of all storm water monitoring information, records, data, and reports required by the General Permit shall be kept on site or available during regularly scheduled operating hours for a period of at least five (5) years. The General Permit specifies that the RWQCB or the local agency may notify the facility operator when the SWPPP does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements found in Section X and Section XI of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit. As requested by the RWQCB or local agency, the facility operator is required to submit a SWPPP revision and implementation plan via the State of California’s Storm Water Multiple Application and Report Tracking System (SMARTS) within 30 days. The principal objectives of this plan are to: • Identify and evaluate sources of pollutants that may affect the quality of storm water discharges and authorized non-storm water discharges from the facility. • Identify and describe the minimum best management practices (BMPs) and any advanced BMPs implemented to reduce or prevent pollutants in industrial storm water discharges and authorized NSWDs. BMPs shall be selected to achieve compliance with the General Permit; and, • Identify and describe conditions or circumstances which may require future revisions to be made to the SWPPP. This plan is reviewed on an annual basis during the General Permit-required annual evaluation. Any revisions to the plan are recorded on the page titled “SWPPP Revisions” located in this document immediately after the table of contents. This plan is to be certified and submitted via SMARTS within 30 days when significant revisions have been made to the SWPPP. Unless there have been significant revisions made to the plan, San Joaquin County is not required to certify and submit via SMARTS their revised SWPPP more than once every three months in the reporting year. The annual review is recorded and signed by the reviewer on the page titled “SWPPP Annual Review” located in this document immediately after the above-mentioned annual review page. A copy of the SWPPP shall be maintained at the facility. The SWPPP must be revised, as appropriate, and implemented prior to changes in industrial activities that: (1) May significantly increase the quantities of pollutants in storm water discharge. (2) Cause a new area of industrial activity at the facility to be exposed to storm water; or (3) Begin an industrial activity that would introduce a new pollutant source at the facility.
