PART 1: INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) is to establish and define the means by which
the Town of Rutherford College will comply with its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit and the applicable provisions of the
Clean Water Act to meet the federal standard of reducing pollutants in stormwater runoff to the maximum
extent practicable.
This SWAP identifies the specific elements and minimum measures that the Town of Rutherford College
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 NCS000480, as issued by NCDEQ. This permit covers activities associated with
the discharge of stormwater from the MS4 as owned and operated by the Town of Rutherford College and
located within the corporate limits of the Town of Rutherford College.
In preparing this SWMP, the Town of Rutherford College has evaluated its MS4 and the permit
requirements to develop a comprehensive 5-year SWMP that will meet the community's needs, address
local water quality issues and provide the minimum measures necessary to comply with the permit. The
SWMP 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 SWMP is approved by NCDEQ, all provisions contained and referenced in this SWMP, along
with any approved modifications of the SWMP, are incorporated by reference into the permit and become
enforceable parts of the permit.
