Foothill Landfill Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Page 69 12.3.3 Level 2 Return to Baseline Status A facility with parameters at Level 2 status will return to Baseline status for that Level 2 parameter if: 1. It submits an industrial activity BMPs demonstration which: x Includes a description of the industrial pollutant sources and corresponding industrial pollutants that are or may be related to the NAL exceedance(s); x Includes an evaluation of all pollutant sources associated with industrial activity that are or may be related to the NAL exceedance(s); x Where all of a facility’s implemented BMPs, including additional BMPs identified in the Level 2 ERA Action Plan, achieve compliance with the effluent limitations of the General Permit and are expected to eliminate future NAL exceedance(s); and x A facility shall provide a description and analysis of all implemented BMPs. 2. If results from four (4) subsequent consecutive QSEs sampled indicate no additional NAL exceedance(s) for the Level 2 parameter(s). If future NAL exceedances occur for parameter(s) at Baseline statue that were previously Level 2 status parameter(s), a facility’s Baseline status for that parameter will return to Level 2 status on July 1 in the subsequent reporting year during which the NAL exceedance(s) occurred and the facility will have to update the Level 2 ERA Technical Report as required above in General Permit section XII.D.3.c. 12.3.4 Level 2 Return to Baseline Status Ineligibility Facilities are not eligible to return to baseline status if they submit any of the following: 1.
