Subject: [EXTERNAL] State Stormwater Permits
Hi Carey,
I am in receipt of the revised stormwater permit renewal applications. Thank you for fixing the current permit holder to
Northchase HOA! I did notice that Mr. Carlton Norris has signed both renewal applications listing himself as President. I
just need meeting minutes from the HOA that lists Mr. Norris as the president of the homeowners association and I can
get both renewals processed.
Thank you for working so diligently to getting these two permits back into compliance. Please let me know if there are
additional questions, comments, or concerns.

Northchase (Williamsburg Place) Operational and Maintenance Policy and
Procedures
The Purpose of this Policy and Procedure:
This stormwater management policy and procedure includes a designed summary for the
Northchase stormwater Operational and Maintenance BMP, design calculations, plans and
specifications showing inlet and outlet structure details, routine pond maintenance, such as
mowing and removing debris or trash, is needed multiple times each year. Inspection
Frequency for the inspection will be conducted monthly for minor items, and annually for
major inspection items, such as structural components. More significant maintenance such as
removing accumulated sediment is needed less frequently but requires more skilled labor and
special equipment and may need a separate proposal submitted to the Association Manager
and the work will not be performed until the approval has been obtained by the Board of
Directors. At which time, the Proposal for Additional services will be signed by the Association
Manager or by a CEPCO administrative staff member.
Periodic Inspections translated to monthly Inspections for the months of December, January,
and February, And Bi-monthly inspections for the months of March through November.
The Monthly Inspection will also include the following items:
Items that are missing such as manhole covers or trash racks, missing or damaged fencing
that normally prevents access to a pond with steep side slopes, or a missing or damaged
grate at a large inflow or outfall pipe.
A Pond Inspection Report will contain all pertinent documentation regarding the
inspector's findings, additives used on the pond, any indications of bare spots or erosions
that are observed, the date, time and Inspector's signature, and recommendations.
Inspectors should take a core set of documentation through photographs depicting the
practices being inspected. In addition, specific problem areas should be photo
documented. A recommended set of core photographs for ponds and wetlands include:
• Vehicle access points.
• Catch basin.
• Pipe blockage
• Detention Pond Operation
• Check Pond Level
• Every six months the amount of sedimentation and plant growth.
• Sedimentation has grown to more than one foot higher than pond level, the
sedimentation must be removed.
• Excessive plant growth must be removed by hand or mechanical means if it interferes
with the ponds flow patterns
• Assess the orifice that controls the pond level after a rain
• Assess sloughing, erosion, and vegetation washout and repair when needed to obtain the
design depth, slopes and specifications

• Overview of practice.
• Overview of principal spillway structure.
• Upstream face of dam embankment.
• Downstream face of dam embankment.
• Outfall to practice and downstream outfall from practice.
• Emergency spillway (if applicable). In addition, because of the large number of
photographs that will likely be generated, a digital camera should be used when possible
to allow photographs to be stored electronically. (In advanced database programs, these
photographs can be retrieved digitally). Finally, photographs should be named using a
standard convention. The photograph name should indicate the practice identification
number, feature (or problem) being photographed, and date of photograph.
4. Field Marking is a very important practice for the inspector to ensure that key areas have
been highlighted as an area of concern with spray paint or another form of marker.
This is particularly useful for problems that may otherwise be difficult to find by others.
Marking should be used as discretely as possible. For example, only dots sprayed at the
base of trees should be used to mark limits of clearing for vegetation removal.
5. In addition to routine inspection, maintenance needs to be performed to access the
function of the control structure. Runoff treatment controls require specific maintenance
activities at varying schedules. The cost and time commitment should be planned for all
maintenance activities delegated to the contractor unless the proposal for additional
services have been submitted to the Association Manager and approved by the Board of
Directors which include but are not limited to the following items:
• Cleaning and removing debris after major storm events (>2" rainfall)
• Harvesting of vegetation when a 50% reduction in the original open water surface area
occurs
• Repairing embankment and side slopes
• Repairing control structure annually or as needed due to storms and debris
• Removing accumulated sediment from forebays or sediment storage areas when 60%of
the original volume has been lost 5-year cycle Ponds Extended detention ponds, wet
ponds, multiple pond systems, "pocket' ponds
• Removing accumulated sediment from main cells of pond once 50% of the original
volume has been lost 20-year cycle.
• Inspection and repair of critical structural features such as embankments and risers.
6. The structural stability issues associated with embankments and pipes, earth, concrete and
metal repairs are essential elements of stormwater pond and wetland maintenance and
designed for a stable water surface elevation between storm events that will rise during
and shortly after a significant rain event. Pond elevations should not dip appreciably below
the specified level unless under extreme conditions, such as drought. Pools provide
functions including aquatic habitat, water quality protection, and visual aesthetics. When
pool levels drop too low, water quality is threatened by algal blooms and anoxic conditions,
which can lead to fish kills and plant stress that in turn can undesirably reduce predation on
mosquito larvae. Leaks within the facility embankment or through the bottom of the pond
are often difficult to locate unless they are large or severe. Active dam leaks often produce
a vortex, an unmistakable indication of a leak. Water may leak through sinkholes formed in
pond bottoms or infiltrate through porous underlying soils. Leaks in the principal spillway
riser are easy to spot. Leaks in the barrel are harder to locate, as they require either
manual entry or remote TV inspection. Broken or missing valves can also lead toward
abnormally low water levels in ponds.

Clogged low flow orifices and weirs represent the most frequent, persistent maintenance
item common to all types of ponds or wetlands. Serious impacts can easily be minimized
through design and retrofit. However, without frequent maintenance, even openings with
trash racks can become clogged. Clogging occurs when debris or sediment accumulates at
riser/weir openings or outfalls, blocking the flow of water. Debris includes vegetative
material such as dead plants, twigs, branches and leaves as well as litter and trash. Large
storms can transport large amounts of debris. Vandalism and nuisance problems such as
beavers contribute to clogging as well.
The high permanent pool disrupts the pond or wetland function by:
a. Decreasing storage volume thereby reducing the ability to attenuate flood flows.
b. Causing the flow velocity leaving the pond or wetland to be greater than the design
release rates therefore increasing downstream channel erosion.
c. Compromising water quality because runoff short -circuital the pond and enters the
downstream channel without adequate residence time for quality treatment.
J. Abnormally high permanent pool — Water spills into 2- year weir because beavers
have clogged the low flow orifice.
e. Killing riparian trees by flooding their roots which are not normally submerged in the
high pool.
f. Compromising public access and safety when adjacent pathways and recreational use
areas are flooded.
g. Saturating areas designed to be outside the permanent pool potentially causing
mosquito -breeding habitat to be created. (Basins should be designed so that pooling
or ponding of water in isolated peripheral areas does not occur for more than 4
consecutive days.
In addition to the permanent pool fluctuation problems noted above, clogged orifices can
cause the following concerns:
a. Riser without trash rack
b. Flattop riser covered with debris.
c. Obscuring the upstream slope of embankments, preventing adequate inspection.
d. Blocking low flow openings causing overtopping of the embankment or dam in the
event of a flood.
e. Blocking underwater spillway inlets such as 'reverse slope' pipes once floating debris
becomes waterlogged and sinks. Pipe Repairs Pipes and riser structures are designed to
convey stormwater safely and at a controlled rate. If pipes or risers are damaged, these
functions will be affected. Often, risers are made from the same materials as pipes, and
therefore, can be treated as such with respect to maintenance and repair. Pipes through

the embankment — the principal spillway and other utilities — are designed to be
watertight. If damaged, pipes may leak water into the embankment through holes or
separated joints. This can lead to piping of water along the pipe, which results in
erosion and can lead to embankment failure. Pipe damage can occur at any point in a
pond or wetland lifecycle and can be caused by improper d poor construction,
inadequate maintenance, or wear and tear.
10. Vegetation Management Vegetation management involves sustaining the landscaping as
designed and preventing the growth of unwanted species. There are three primary types
of vegetation that require management and maintenance in stormwater ponds and
wetlands: turf and grasses, wetland plantings, and trees and forested areas.
11. Turf and Grasses Native and non-native grasses are the most common vegetative
stabilization used in stormwater pond and wetland construction today for reasons of
aesthetics, ease of maintenance. The root system of any vegetative cover holds the surface
soil in place and protects the slopes from wind and surface runoff erosion. A regularly
scheduled program of cutting and trimming of grass at facilities during the growing season
will help to maintain a tightly knit turf and will also help prevent diseases, pests, and the
intrusion of weeds.
12. Wetland Plantings Native wetland plants promote biological uptake of pollutants. Though
natural propagation is desirable, vegetation will still need to be managed to meet the
design goals. Depending on the design of the system, vegetation harvesting3 and control of
aquatic plants (such as cattails and phragmites) may be required. Trees are often planted
for aesthetic, stabilization, and temperature control reasons. They must be maintained to
prevent clogging of orifices with debris and the spread to unwanted areas. Vegetation
management is probably the most frequent maintenance activity that occurs in association
with the upkeep of stormwater ponds and wetlands. While the activity requires little
expertise or special equipment, there are still important site conditions to be aware of to
maintain a properly functioning stormwater pond or wetland.
13. Unseen areas may be neglected. For example, the downstream dam face of an
embankment is the most neglected and most critical area requiring regular clearing.
a. Heavy pedestrian use, particularly along the top of the pond and along pond edges
can create patches of bare soil.
b. Industrial pollutants can cause alteration in the chemical composition and pH of the
discharge water, which, in turn, can affect plant growth even when the source of
contamination is intermittent. Nutrients increase plant growth and acidic discharges
can decrease vegetation.
c. Un-maintained vegetation can obscure large portions of the dam, preventing
adequate visual inspection and limiting access to the dam and surrounding areas.
And obstructing the access is critical in emergency situations.
d. Excessive vegetation often provides habitat for rodents and burrowing animals and
can affect the flow rates through earthen spillways.

14. Sources of solid and semisolid wastes retained in a pond or wetland include:
• Soil loss from lawns and open areas
• Litter and yard waste
• Sand from winter sanding operations
• Natural leaf litter and down branches
• Grit from roofing shingles
• Atmospheric deposition wash off
• Construction sediments
• Erosion from upstream conveyance swales
• Asphalt grit as sediment accumulation
15. Sediment forebays, pond drains, access for sediment removal,
and a designated onsite disposal area. These considerations will reduce eventual costs
of sediment removal, as major cost items in dredging include dewatering, transport of
sediment for off -site disposal, re-establishment of wetland communities, and accessing
the site.
16. Nuisance Issues include:
1. Rodents damage ponds or wetlands through burrowing or dam building.
2. Burrowing may jeopardize embankment stability for dams and berms, beaver
dam building reduces live storage and creates clogging problems.
3. The following animals routinely cause destruction to embankments and berms:
groundhogs/woodchucks, muskrats, prairie dogs, badgers, pocket gophers and
Richardson ground squirrels. Animal burrows can deteriorate the structural
integrity of dams, embankments, and cause erosion.
