PART 1: INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) is to establish and define the means by which
the Town of China Grove 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 SWMP identifies the specific elements and minimum measures that the Town of China Grove 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 NCS000515, 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 China Grove and
located within the corporate limits of the Town of China Grove.
In preparing this SWMP, the Town of China Grove 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.

PART 3: MS4 INFORMATION
3.1 Permitted MS4 Area
This SWMP applies throughout the corporate limits of the Town of China Grove, including all regulated
activities associated with the discharge of stormwater from the MS4. The map below shows the corporate
limits of Town of China Grove as of the date of this document.
3.2 Existing MS4 Mapping
Storm drainage within the Town of China Grove consists of a network of pipes, ditches and open
channels, which were installed at different times by many different entities. The flow of storm water
travels through both public and privately maintained areas, and the level of improvements installed are the
option of the property owner. The overall drainage area is relatively small and is served by three major
creeks and numerous tributary streams. Therefore, the typical drainage path from overland flow to the
outfall is short.
The Town recently inventoried the conveyance system and prepared detailed maps of the entire system
within the Town's municipal boundary limits.
Existing stormwater piping: +24,000 feet of 8" to 48" diameter piping Stormwater inlets: +276 inlets
Outfalls or discharge points: +60 (size from 12" to 60" diameter)

Figure 3 of Appendix A is a location map of all inventoried outfalls within the Town's municipal
boundaries. Appendix M includes detailed system maps showing the location of all inlets, piping and
outfalls.

*An outfall is a point where the MS4 discharges f oni 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.
**Outfalls have been mapped but the classification of the specific oufalls as major outfalls has not
occurred, therefore the number of major outfalls is unknown at this time (See BMP No. 16).
3.3 Receiving Waters
The tributary streams are listed in the order in which they occur beginning at the most downstream point
of the named Creek within the program area and proceeding upstream. The direction of flow of Grants
Creek and Town Creek is from south to north. Cold Water Creek flows from the north to the south. The
"E" and "W" designations indicate that the tributary is located to either the east or the west side of the
main creek. The numerical designation indicates the order of occurrence from the most far point in the
program area downstream to most upstream point in the program area. Figure 2 in Appendix A illustrates
the receiving streams in the program area.

3.4 MS4 Interconnection
The Town of China Grove MS4 is not interconnected with another regulated MS4 and directly discharges
to the receiving waters as listed in Table 2 above.
3.5 Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs)
The USEPA developed an approach called total maximum daily loads (TMDL) for determining the total
waste (pollutant) loading from point and nonpoint sources that a stream or other water body can
assimilate and maintain its designated uses. With the TMDL approach streams, which do not meet water
quality standards, are identified and the State establishes priorities for actions needed to meet water
quality goals. The TMDL(s) listed in Table 3 below have been approved within the MS4 area, as
determined by the map and list provided on the NCDEQ Modeling & Assessment Unit web page. The
table also indicates whether the approved TMDL has a specific stormwater Waste Load Allocation
(WLA) for any watershed directly receiving discharges from the permitted MS4, and whether a Water
Quality Recovery Program has been implemented to address the WLA.

3.8 Non-Stormwater Discharges
The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Town of China
Grove as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do
not significantly impact water quality. The Town of China Grove 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 SWMP.
The Division has not required that other non-stormwater flows be specifically controlled by the Town of
China Grove. 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 Town of China Grove to determine
whether they may significantly impact water quality.

In accordance with the issued permit, the Town of China Grove shall maintain adequate funding and
staffing to implement and manage the provisions of the SWMP and comply with the requirements of the
NPDES MS4 Permit. The budget includes the permit administering and compliance fee, which is billed
by the Division annually. The stormwater program currently receives funding of approximately $5,000
per year; this is funded through general funds. The Assistant Town Manager position is funded through
the general fund. The program is currently under -funded to conduct all the proactive elements of the
permit. Further fiscal analysis and investigation of funding options (such as additional general fund
allocation or a stormwater fee) will be conducted as indicated in BMP No. 3 in order to fully fund the
program by Permit year three.
4.3 Shared Responsibility
The Town of China Grove will share the responsibility to implement the following minimum control
measures, which are at least as stringent as the corresponding NPDES MS4 Permit requirement. The
Town of China Grove remains responsible for compliance if the other entity fails to perform the permit
obligation, and may be subject to enforcement action if neither the Town of China Grove nor the other
entity fully performs the permit obligation. Table 9 below summarizes who will be implementing the
component, what the component program is called, the specific SWMP BMP or permit requirement that
is being met by the shared responsibility, and whether or not a legal agreement to share responsibility is in

PART 10: POLLUTION PREVENTION AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAMS
This SWMP provides a comprehensive pollution prevention and good housekeeping strategy for the
Town of China Grove municipal facilities and operations. Pollution prevention and good housekeeping is
accomplished through the implementation of seven required programs, which collectively address the
ultimate goal of preventing or reducing pollutant runoff from municipal operations such as parks and
open space maintenance, fleet and building maintenance, new construction and land disturbances, and
municipal storm sewer system maintenance.
Pollution prevention and good housekeeping for municipal operations includes the following programs:
1. Municipal Facilities Operation and Maintenance Program
2. Spill Response Program
3. MS4 Operation and Maintenance Program
4. Municipal SCM Operation and Maintenance Program
5. Pesticide, Herbicide and Fertilizer Management Program
6. Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Program
7. Pavement Management Program
The Town of China Grove will manage, implement and report the pollution prevention and good
housekeeping BMPs as specified in Table 21 below for each required program.
