This SLSWMM identifies the specific elements and minimum measures that Spring lake will develop, implement, enforce, evaluate and report to the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Division of Energy, Minerals and Land Resources (DEMLR) in order to comply with the MS4 Permit number NCS000438, as issued by NCDEQ. This permit covers activities associated with the discharge of stormwater from the MS4 as owned and operated by the Spring Lake and located within the corporate limits of the Spring Lake. In preparing this SLSWMM, Spring Lake has evaluated its MS4 and the permit requirements to develop a comprehensive 5-year SLSWMM that will meet the community’s needs, address local water quality issues and provide the minimum measures necessary to comply with the permit. The SLSWMM will be evaluated and updated annually to ensure that the elements and minimum measures it contains continue to adequately provide for permit compliance and the community’s needs. Once the SLSWMM is approved by NCDEQ, all provisions contained and referenced in this SLSWMM, along with any approved modifications of the SLSWMM, are incorporated by reference into the permit and become enforceable parts of the permit. The Spring Lake Stormwater Administration Program is authorized under Part II, Section 40, Article VII of the Spring Lake Ordinances, passed on June 26, 2016. State Law reference is Stormwater Runoff Rules and programs G.S. 143-214(c) and G.S. 160A-459 NCS000438 SWMP Spring Lake 10/12/2020 Page 2 On February 20, 2017 the Town of Spring Lake received a new permit as a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System, (MS4) under National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit number NCS000438 as issued by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) formerly the NC Department of Natural Resources (NCDENR). This permit expires February 19, 2022 This document provides the Stormwater Quality Management Program, herein referred to as the Spring Lake Stormwater Management Manual (SLSWMM), required by Part I, paragraphs 1, 7, and 11 of the NPDES permit and US Code Section 402(p)(3)(B)(iii). The overall objective of the SLSWMM is to protect receiving stream water quality by reducing the discharge of pollutants from the Town’s MS4 to the maximum extent practicable through the implementation of the permit programs and SLSWMM elements described within this plan. The Spring Lake Stormwater Division is the primary agency responsible for managing the Town’s NPDES stormwater permit, its MS4, and the SLSWMM. Included in this SLSWMM are the individual stormwater control measures (SCMs), formerly known as best management practices, that will be used to fulfill program requirements along with the corresponding frequency of each SCM, measurable program goals, implementation schedule, and funding sources. The Spring Lake Stormwater Administrator (SWA), under the direction of the Town’s Water Resources Director (WRD), is responsible for the fulfillment of most of the activities discussed in this SLSWMM. The Town’s Street Department has responsibility for maintenance of portions of the MS4, in coordination with the Spring Lake Stormwater Division. The one exception is the Construction Site Runoff Control program where the local office of NCDEQ is the primary responsible agency. The development of this SLSWMM has completed and implemented updated measures in accordance with the NPDES permit. The Town’s SLSWMM includes the following core Phase II permit programs: Public Education and Outreach – This program provides education and outreach through direct interaction with the public at festivals, in the Recreation and Parks Department, and the schools. In addition, Spring Lake is a member of the Clean Water Education Partnership (CWEP) which provides materials and personnel for outreach programs and files an annual report to DEQ. Spring Lake also participates in the Cumberland County Schools Green Schools program with outreach during the annual Earth Day program. Public Involvement and Participation – Spring Lake has a combined Stormwater, Sustainability, and Appearance committee which is an appointed citizen panel to review and comment on the Town’s stormwater programs. In addition, public volunteer opportunities are available with Town programs such as Storm Drain Marking, Adopt-A-Drain, Adopt-A-Street, etc. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination – This program is designed to protect water quality by detecting and eliminating pollution sources from illicit connections such as improper sewage or wastewater connections; illegal discharges such as chemical, paint, or oil dumping; and spills such as sewer overflows or vehicle accidents involving discharges of fuel, oil, and other chemicals. As part of this program, the Town enforces the “Town of Spring Lake – Illicit Connections and Improper Disposal NCS000438 SWMP Spring Lake 10/12/2020 Page 3 Ordinance”, which prohibits the discharge of pollutants to the storm drain system and streams. The Town relies on reports from the public, various monitoring programs, fire and police department reports, and a wide range of other activities to assist in identifying and eliminating these sources of pollution. Construction Site Runoff Control – This program has been and is currently provided by the local office of the NCDEQ Land Quality Section. Even though the Town’s existing Construction Site Runoff program is handled by the local office of the NCDEQ Land Quality Section, the Town continues to aggressively inspect construction sites that are brought to their attention through complaints or other sources. These efforts are fully coordinated with NCDEQ. Additionally, the Town focuses on sites that are smaller than one acre that are not permitted by NCDEQ. Post-Construction Site Runoff Controls – The Town has developed a program to control the discharge of pollutants in stormwater runoff from new development and redevelopment projects. As part of this program, the Town enforces the “Town of Spring Lake – Stormwater Control Ordinance”, which requires stormwater treatment practices for development that meets various size and density thresholds. The program involves review and approval of project plans as well as site inspections to ensure that treatment practices are properly operated and maintained. Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations – This program focuses on ensuring that Town owned and operated facilities are properly operated and maintained to reduce stormwater pollutant discharges from these facilities. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans and Spill Response Plans are prepared for applicable facilities that conduct activities with the potential for stormwater pollutant discharges. The Town conducts annual inspections and training sessions at these facilities to ensure that requirements are being met. Water Quality Assessment and Monitoring – The Town maintains a water quality monitoring program designed to monitor major streams to determine water quality conditions and gauge the effectiveness of various stormwater management programs. The program also is used to assist in locating illicit discharges and connections. Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) – The Spring Lake Stormwater Division has determined that a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) criteria has not yet been developed and approved or established by NCDEQ (as delegated through EPA) for the receiving waters of the Town of Spring Lake’s MS4 NPDES stormwater discharge. Therefore, this Permit section is currently not applicable in the Town of Spring Lake.

The map below shows the corporate limits of Spring Lake as of the date of this document. Spring Lake is the light green section of the map shown below. 3.2 Existing MS4 Mapping The current MS4 mapping includes… Inlets, outfalls, pipes, and open channels. This interactive map can be found at https://springlake.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=064009ed4c404ac7a1ffa23d8ef74 ef4 NCS000438 SWMP Spring Lake 10/12/2020 Page 6 Table 1: Summary of MS4 Mapping Percent of MS4 Area Mapped 100 % No. of Major Outfalls* Mapped 148 total *An outfall is a point where the MS4 discharges from a pipe or other conveyance (e.g. a ditch) directly into surface waters. Major outfalls are required to be mapped to meet permit requirements. A major outfall is a 36-inch diameter pipe or discharge from a drainage area > 50-acres; and for industrial zoned areas a 12-inch diameter pipe or a drainage area > 2-acres. 3.3 Receiving Waters The Spring Lake MS4 is located within the Cape Fear River Basin and discharges directly into receiving waters as listed in Table 2 below. Applicable water quality standards listed below are compiled from the following NCDEQ sources: o Waterbody Classification Map o Impaired Waters and TMDL Map o Most recent NCDEQ Final 303(d) List NCS000438 SWMP Spring Lake 10/12/2020 Page 7 Table 2: Summary of MS4 Receiving Waters Receiving Water Name Stream Index / AU Number Water Quality Classification 303(d) Listed Parameter(s) of Interest Tank (McDuffie) Creek 18-23-27 C None Jumping Run Creek 18-23-29 C None Muddy Creek 18-23-26 C None Lower Little River 18-23-(24) C None • Water Quality Classification C: Aquatic Life, Secondary Recreation, Fresh Water 3.4 MS4 Interconnection The Spring Lake MS4 is not interconnected with another regulated MS4. 3.5 Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) Spring Lake does not have any impaired water bodies as indicated in NCDEQ Modeling & Assessment Unit web page and therefore has no TMDL recording requirements. 3.6 Endangered and Threatened Species and Critical Habitat Significant populations of threatened or endangered species and/or critical habitat are not identified within the regulated MS4 urbanized area, as determined by a review of the Endangered and Threatened Species and Species of Concern by County for North Carolina Map and Listed species believe to or known to occur in North Carolina map as provided by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 3.7 Industrial Facility Discharges The Spring Lake MS4 jurisdictional area includes the following industrial facilities which hold NPDES Industrial Stormwater Permits, as determined from the NCDEQ Active NPDES Stormwater Permit List and/or Active Stormwater Permits Map. Table 5: NPDES Stormwater Permitted Industrial Facilities Permit Number Facility Name NCG110041 Spring Lake WWTP NCG100180 Spring Lake Auto Center NCG100091 McLamb’s Auto Salvage NCS000438 SWMP Spring Lake 10/12/2020 Page 8 3.8 Non-Stormwater Discharges The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Spring Lake as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do not significantly impact water quality. The Spring Lake has evaluated residential and charity car washing and street washing for possible significant water quality impacts. Street washing discharges are addressed under the Pavement Management Program in Part 10 of this SLSWMM. The Division has not required that other non-stormwater flows be specifically controlled by the Spring Lake. Wash water associated with car washing that does not contain detergents or does not discharge directly into the MS4 is considered incidental. However, these types of non-stormwater discharges that do contain detergents have been evaluated by the Spring Lake to determine whether they may significantly impact water quality. Personal car washing activities are not frequent enough to warrant a designation as a significant impact on water quality. However, the public will be advised on reducing contamination from car washing by washing vehicles at a commercial facility or on lawns. This will be done through fliers in their utility bills at least once a quarter. Charity car washes will be addressed as they are conducted.

These include animal waste, yard waste and sediment left in gutters, and trash throughout the system. Table 7 below summarizes the water quality pollutants identified throughout Part 3 of this SLSWMM, the likely activities/sources/targeted audiences attributed to each pollutant, and identifies the associated SLSWMM program(s) that address each. In addition, the Spring Lake has evaluated schools, homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts. Residents of the Town are the primary source of litter, yard waste, and animal waste. Education efforts will be targeted at school children and through mailers to residents in their utility bills as to the best methods to stop pollution from reaching the storm drains. Business owners will be advised of proper disposal of trash and upkeep of drains on private property in order to reduce their pollution load.

NCS000438 SWMP Spring Lake 10/12/2020 Page 23 PART 8: CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROL PROGRAM In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153, Spring Lake relies upon the North Carolina Sedimentation Pollution Control Act (SPCA) of 1973 and the NCG010000 permit for construction activities as qualifying alternative programs to meet the NPDES MS4 Permit requirements for all construction site runoff control measures to reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff from construction activities that result in land disturbance of greater than or equal to one acre and any construction activity that is part of a larger common plan of development that would disturb one acre or more. As Cumberland County is a tipped county, Construction Site Runoff Control is the responsibility of the State. The Town approves SCM before construction starts, and administers post Construction Control Measures once the project is completed. PART 9: POST-CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROL PROGRAM This SLSWMM identifies the minimum elements to develop, implement and enforce a program to address stormwater runoff from new development and redevelopment projects that disturb greater than or equal to one acre, including projects less than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of development or sale, that are located within the Spring Lake and discharge into the MS4. These elements are designed to minimize water quality impacts utilizing a combination of structural Stormwater Control Measures (SCMs) and/or non-structural SCMs appropriate for the community, and ensure adequate long- term operation and maintenance of SCMs. In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153 and .1017, the Spring Lake implements the following State post-construction program requirements, which satisfy the NPDES Phase II MS4 post-construction site runoff control requirements as Qualifying Alternative Programs (QAPs) in the MS4 area(s) where they are implemented. Table 18: Qualifying Alternative Program(s) for Post-Construction Site Runoff Control Program State QAP Name State Requirements Local Ordinance / Regulatory Mechanism Reference Universal Stormwater Management Program 15A NCAC 2H .1020 The Spring Lake has existing requirements other than Qualifying Alternative Program(s) for implementation of the NPDES Phase II MS4 post-construction program requirements.
