AGENDA

 

I - MS4PY7 PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
School Districts, which are considered as Non-traditional MS4s, must implement the six (6) Minimum Control Measures as follows:
- MCM1: Public Education: The District must maintain a stormwater website, that must be readily accessible to all the administrators, teachers, students and the District's staff. The Steering Committee should encourage the District Community to visit the site to access newsletters and fact sheets on the ongoing stormwater program.
- MCM2: Public Participation: The District should encourage the District Community to actively participate in the ongoing stormwater program and to learn about Pollutants of Concern (POCs), their impacts on stormwater runoff and the steps that the District is taking to reduce applicable POCs, as identified through newsletters and fact sheets.
- MCM3: Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination: This MCM limits the discharge of only stormwater into the District's storm drains. A site survey will be conducted in the spring of the District's operations to determine potential sources of pollutants that may impact stormwater runoff. In addition, this survey will also include an observation of all accessible stormwater outfalls from the District's property. A summary report will highlight any corrective actions that the District should undertake to reduce POCs to stormwater runoff from the District.
- MCM4 and MCM5: Construction and Post-Construction Stormwater Runoff Controls: The District must develop equivalent protection to NYS SPDES General permit for Stormwater Discharges from Construction Activities. Permit provisions must be complied with, when the District undertakes any construction activities on the District's property.
- MCM6: Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping: The District must provide an annual O&M Staff Training Workshop on POCs, their impacts and steps that the District is taking to reduce POCs in stormwater runoff. In addition, the District will adopt applicable Guidelines and Procedures documents on specific methods for addressing relevant POCs that may impact the District's stormwater runoff.
