Stormwater runoff provides drinking water and supplies water to our rivers, lakes, and streams.
Pollutants picked up in storm water runoff can contaminate local streams, rivers, and surface
waters that in turn can cause harmful effects on humans and wildlife. The goal of Stormwater
Pollution Prevention is to eliminate pollution at the source.
Identify potential sources stormwater pollution
Include site specific examples, such as:
• Fuel Storage and Transfer Areas
• Fueling Operations
• Hazardous Material and Waste Storage and Handling Areas
• Maintenance Areas
• Salt storage and Deicing Operations
• Vehicle Washing Operations
• High Soil Erosion Areas
• Illicit Discharges
Identify allowable stormwater discharges
Discharges of non-stormwater may also be allowed if such discharges have been determined
not to be significant sources of pollutants to the storm water system.
Include site specific examples, such as:
• water line and fire hydrant flushing
• landscape irrigation
• uncontaminated groundwater infiltration;
• uncontaminated pumped groundwater;
+ discharges from uncontaminated potable water sources;
