Final RM MS4 Gap Analysis Report
Section 1: Introduction
The City of Rocky Mount (City) was issued its current individual Phase II Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System (MS4) Permit (Permit No. NCS000442) by the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality
(DEQ) Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources (DEMLR) on February 20, 2017. In response to a U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) compliance initiative in North Carolina, DEQ began audits of Phase II
MS4 permittees in 2019. The City audit is scheduled to occur sometime in calendar year 2021.
At that time, the City will be expected to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of the current MS4
permit. It is anticipated that the audit will be conducted using a standard template with a series of questions
as presented in the DEQ Draft Phase II Permit Audit Template (North Carolina DEQ, 2019) (shown in
Attachment A). As a part of the audit, DEQ will request supporting documentation, conduct City staff
interviews, and perform site visits with City staff.
The purpose of this report is to evaluate the City’s current MS4 program documents and operations, outline
the requirements in the City’s MS4 permit and the audit template, and assess the City MS4 program. Brown
and Caldwell (BC) conducted a gap analysis process which included a request for information from the City
about current program operations, records, and procedures; and interviews with City staff responsible for
implementing or supporting components of the MS4 permit. The term gap in this process refers to: 1) areas
identified by BC that are either explicitly cited in the NPDES MS4 permit or 2) elements identified within the
DEQ Phase II MS4 Audit template that require additional documentation and/or procedural updates by the
City to be in compliance. Based on a review of the data, materials, and observations gathered through this
effort, BC identified gaps in the current MS4 program and developed recommended actions to address
those gaps. In general, the key observations from the gap analysis are:
• Documentation for current program operations and procedures should be strengthened. Key programs
required by the permit should be well documented to demonstrate compliance with permit
requirements.
• Records associated with maintenance and inspection activities should be maintained in such a way that
chronic violators and areas of repeat issues can easily be identified and addressed.
• A process for enforcement of notices of violations (NOVs) should be developed to address hazards to the
stormwater system and compliance with the MS4 permit.
This report also evaluates the existing municipal Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping (PPGH)
program. BC reviewed the City’s existing inventory of municipal facilities to identify sites with significant
potential for pollution. The evaluation included assessing property use based on aerial imagery and then by
conducting facility inspections. Results of this effort are detailed further in Section 4 of this report. Some key
observations from this aspect of the gap analysis included:
• There is a need for standardized procedures and defined expectations for municipally owned facilities to
meet PPFH permit requirements especially associated with spill prevention and spill response
preparedness.
• The Stormwater Management Division should clearly define responsibilities and coordinate with owning
departments for implementation at their facilities. Once responsibilities are outlined and agreed upon,
the Stormwater Management Department should provide templates and guidance documents for how
facilities should carry out and document heir identified responsibilities.

Section 2: Data Gathering
Data included in this report were provided by the City based on the current program. In January and February
2021, City staff provided example work products, standard operating procedures (SOPs), forms, and data
related to activities covered by the MS4 permit, including:
• Public Education, Outreach, and Involvement
• Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE)
• Stormwater Control Measure (SCM) and Erosion & Sediment Control (E&SC) Design and Construction
• SCM Inspections and Maintenance
• Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping and Industrial Inspections
• Asset Inspections and Maintenance
Following a review of the provided data, BC conducted interviews with staff from the Stormwater
Management Division who have responsibilities relevant to the MS4 permit requirements. City staff
responsible for one or more permit requirements were invited to discuss the processes and procedures they
use to implement the identified permit requirements. A schedule of all meetings held, including a list of
attendees, topics, and meeting summaries is presented in Attachment B.
The results of the data review, division and departmental interviews, and site visits were compiled and
analyzed for compliance gaps. Emphasis was placed on standard procedures (including whether SOPs and
standard templates/checklists have been developed), and documentation/reporting mechanisms.
For the PPGH program review, a list of City-owned facilities was generated from the 2019-2020 City Property
Schedule. From this list, sites were classified based on the type of activities that could be conducted on -site.
Sites that included activities with potential to cause significant pollution to the stormwater system were
considered for field visits by BC staff for further evaluation. Five sites were selected for field visits and were
assessed based on the field form and discussions with City staff at each facility that can be found in
Attachment C.
Section 3: Results of the MS4 Self Audit
The following section is organized based on the DEQ Phase II Audit template (Attachment A) and City
programs that implement elements of the MS4 permit. The audit template includes questions about each
area of the permit, from procedures and protocols to reporting and tracking, to verify program
implementation. The audit template allows “Yes”, “No”, “Partial”, and “Not Applicable” responses. A “Yes”
indication denotes a program element that appears to be compliant with the permit requirement or audit
question, while a “No” denotes the lack of compliance. A “Partial” indication denotes a program element
that meets a portion of the permit requirement or audit question .”No” and “Partial” responses represent a
program gap for the purpose of this report. Tables 3-1,3-2 and 3-3 1 includes a summary of program
recommendations to address the gaps identified. Recommendations are provided for program elements that
are rated either “No” or “Partial” on the DEQ Phase II Audit template (Attachment A). High priority
recommendations include those permit areas that do not currently have program documentation to
represent the actions of the program. The program elements listed in Table 3-1 represent the program
elements that are recommended to be addressed in the near term (within 1 year). Each of the program
elements also require coordination throughout the department that elevates the priority.

Audit/Permit Section Program Element Program Requirement Program Recommendations and Suggested Improvements
Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination
II.D.2.a IDDE Program The permittee maintained a written IDDE Program.
If yes, the written program includes provisions for program assessment and evaluation and integrating program.
The City should develop a written program document that outlines goals/objectives, program process steps, and provision for
program assessment and evaluation. The written plan should include schedules for required activities, references to SOPs detailing
how to complete required activities, reporting and documentation procedures, enforcement procedures, and training requirements
where necessary.
II.D.2.d Dry Weather Flow Program The permittee maintained a program for conducting dry weather flow field observations in accordance with written
procedures.
The city's ditch work crews conduct visual inspections during their normal maintenance activities and report observances in daily
activity reports. The City should formalize and document this activity as a part of the dry weather screening program and provide
training to all personnel who will engage with dry-weather screening.
II.D.2.f Tracking and Document Investigations
For each case of an illicit discharge or potential illicit discharge, the permittee documented and tracked the
following:
1. The date(s) the illicit discharge was observed
2. The results of the investigation
3. Any follow-up of the investigation
4. The date the investigation was closed
Investigation tracking documentation includes the date the illicit discharge was observed and the results of the investigation. The
City should also include any follow-up to the initial investigation and the close-out date of the investigation to the tracking
documentation.
II.D.2.g Employee Training The permittee implemented and documented a training program for appropriate municipal staff who, as part of their
normal job responsibilities, may come into contact with or otherwise observe an illicit discharge or illicit connection.
The City held a training session in February 2020 that included many supervisory staff. The City should plan to provide consistent,
ongoing IDDE training opportunities for staff included in executing the IDDE program.
II.D.2.i Public Reporting Mechanism The permittee established and implemented response procedures for citizen requests/reports.
During department interviews, staff indicated that the response and directing for public complaints is a known process for identifying
the appropriate City contact to forward the request and following up as necessary. Documenting the response procedure and making
it available to staff that receive public calls would change to a “Yes” status.
II.D.2.j Enforcement
The permittee implemented a mechanism to track the issuance of notices of violation and enforcement actions
administered by the permittee.
If yes, the mechanism includes the ability to identify chronic violators for initiation of actions to reduce
noncompliance.
The City maintains a list for illicit discharge violations catalogued by site location. The City should build in a mechanism in the
current tracking document to capture chronic violators in noncompliance.
Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping
II. G.2.a Facility Inventory The permittee maintained a current inventory of facilities and operations owned and operated by the permittee with
the potential for generating polluted stormwater runoff.
The inventory is maintained by the Risk Management and Facilities Management Department. The current City inventory list is
maintained according to insured City property and likely includes all properties with high and medium potential to cause significant
pollution. The City should devise a comprehensive facility inventory list specific to stormwater pollution prevention to confirm
whether all municipal sites are accounted for; this may include a review of the current list and all municipal properties identified by
the County Property Appraiser’s Office.
II. G.2.b,c Operation and Maintenance (O&M) for facilities
The permittee maintained and implemented an O&M program for municipally owned and operated facilities with the
potential for generating polluted stormwater runoff.
If yes, the O&M program specifies the frequency of inspections.
If yes, the O&M program specifies the frequency of routine maintenance requirements.
If yes, the permittee evaluated the O&M program annually and updated it as necessary.
The City should develop an inspection and maintenance program for municipal facilities and operations that have been determined
to have significant potential for generating polluted stormwater runoff. The program should include inspection frequencies, routine
maintenance requirements, procedures to update the facility and operations inventory and identification of properties with potential
to cause significant pollution, and annual assessment of program performance. It is recommended that the development of this plan
is completed in coordination with owning departments to identify roles and responsibilities, as well as document existing and
ongoing practices.
The permittee had written spill response procedures for municipal operations.
The City should develop a spill response procedure for municipal operations and facilities. It is recommended that the development
of this plan is completed in coordination with owning departments to identify roles and responsibilities, as well as document existing
and ongoing practices .
II.G.2.d Streets, Roads, and Public Parking Lots
Maintenance
The permittee evaluated existing and new BMPs that reduce polluted stormwater runoff from municipally-owned
streets, roads, and public parking lots within its corporate limits annually.
If yes, the permittee evaluated the effectiveness of existing and new BMPs based on cost and the estimated quantity
of pollutants removed.
The City currently performs streets, roads, and public parking maintenance in the form of leaf/yard waste collection, street sweeping,
mowing, and inlet cleaning. The City should include annual evaluation of effectiveness of Best Management Practices (BMPs)
utilized in municipally owned streets, roads, and public parking lots.

II.G.2.f MS4 Conveyance System Inspection and
Maintenance
The permittee maintained and implemented an O&M program for the stormwater sewer system including catch
basins and conveyance systems that it owns and maintains.
The City currently performs maintenance activities on conveyance systems and ditches. Maintenance responsibilities are shared
among City construction crews, ditch maintenance crews, and contractors as needed. The City should develop an inspection and
maintenance program document that includes the MS4 including catch basins and the conveyance system.
II.G.2.j Staff Training The permittee implemented an employee training program for employees involved in implementing pollution
prevention and good housekeeping practices.
The City should develop required training for employees on pollution prevention and good housekeeping practices, specifically spill
prevention, storm drain maintenance, and avoiding polluted runoff.
II.G.2.k Vehicle and Equipment cleaning The permittee described and implemented measures that prevent or minimize contamination of stormwater runoff
from all areas used for vehicle and equipment cleaning. The City should develop guidance for vehicle and equipment washing and maintenance practices that prevent stormwater pollution.
Table 3-2 lists the medium priority recommendations. These program elements have been classified as medium priority as they require a more consistent and time intensive effort to complete (e.g. program implementation and post
construction site runoff controls design). Medium priority is also assigned to program elements that maintain partial documentation and robust program activity in alignment with permit requirements (e.g. public education and
outreach).

Program Implementation
II.A.1 Staffing and Funding
The permittee maintained adequate funding and staffing to implement and manage the provisions of the Stormwater
Plan and meet all requirements of the permit.
The Stormwater Management Plan should identify specific roles responsible for the overall coordination, implementation, and
updates to the Plan; responsibilities for all components of the Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) should be documented and
position(s) assignments provided.
The Stormwater Plan identifies a specific position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, implementation, and
revision to the Plan.
Responsibilities for all components of the Stormwater Plan are documented and position(s) assignments provided.
The City should perform an annual staffing evaluation to determine resources needed to operate the MS4 in compliance with the
current permit.
II.A.2 Stormwater Plan Implementation and Evaluation The permittee evaluated the performance and effectiveness of the program components at least annually. The City should conduct an annual review to evaluate the performance and effectiveness of the stormwater division at meeting the
MS4 permit requirements. Any changes to the SWMP that result should be reported to DEMLR.
II.A.3 Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP)
The permittee kept the Stormwater Plan up to date.
The City should update the SWMP to reflect the current permit. DEQ templates are available to aid in Plan updates
https://files.nc.gov/ncdeq/Energy%20Mineral%20and%20Land%20Resources/Stormwater/MS4_Documents/2021-SWMP-
Template-20210309.docx
The permittee notified DEMLR of any updates to the Stormwater Plan. The City should submit the updated SWMP to DEMLR.
II.A.7 Written Procedures
The permittee maintained written procedures for implementing the six minimum control measures.
Written procedures identified specific action steps, schedules, resources and responsibilities for implementing the
six minimum measures.
The City currently performs inspection, maintenance, reporting, and enforcement activities. The City should develop and implement a
written plan incorporating goals/objectives and evaluations for each of the following program areas:
• IDDE Plan
• MS4 O&M Plan
The written plan should include schedules for required activities, references to SOPs detailing how to complete required activities,
reporting and documentation procedures, enforcement procedures, and training requirements where necessary.
Note that typically SCM O&M Plan would be included as a part of the written procedures, however because the City does not
currently operate municipally owned SCMs a written procedure is not applicable.

II. B. 2.a -d Goals, Objectives, Target Pollutants, Target
Audiences
The permittee defined goals and objectives of the Local Public Education and Outreach Program based on
community wide issues.
The permittee maintained a description of the target pollutants and/or stressors and likely sources.
The permittee identified, assessed annually and updated the description of the target audiences likely to have
significant storm water impacts and why they were selected.
The permittee described issues, such as pollutants, the likely sources of those pollutants, potential impacts, and the
physical attributes of stormwater runoff in their education/outreach program.
The City should maintain a document that records the defined goals and objectives, a description of target pollutants and sources
the program is designed to address, target audiences likely to have significant stormwater impact, and why they were selected. These
details were provided verbally during the public education and involvement department interview. This information may be recorded
within the SWMP or an external City document.
II.B.2.H Public Education and Outreach Program For each media, event or activity, including those elements implemented locally or through a cooperative agreement
the permittee estimated and recorded the extent of exposure.
The City gets outreach and exposure reports from their membership with the Clean Water Education Partnership (CWEP) about
regional activities, but the City should document City-specific outreach activities. A common log should be maintained of
attendance/exposure at City sponsored public education and outreach events. The City should also document and log activity and
exposure from Keep America Beautiful (KAB) programming.
Post-Construction Site Runoff Controls Design
II.F.2f Mechanism to Require Long-term Operation and
Maintenance
The operation and maintenance plan required the owner of each SCM to perform and maintain a record of annual
inspections of each SCM.
Annual inspection of permitted structural SCMs are required to be performed by a qualified professional.
Current private SCMs are about 50% compliant with required annual inspections. The City should develop a plan to achieve and
maintain 100% compliance which includes confirmation of current property owners contact information, tracking annual inspection
responses, and follow-up with non-responders and failed inspections. The City should also employ the available enforcement
mechanisms to aid in achieving compliance, if necessary.
II.F.2i Enforcement
The permittee tracked the issuance of notices of violation and enforcement actions.
If yes, the tracking mechanism included the ability to identify chronic violators for initiation of actions to reduce
noncompliance.
The City is not currently enforcing non-compliance for required annual SCM inspections. The City should employ enforcement
activities to aid in achieving compliance. Enforcement activities should be tracked with the ability to identify chronic violators.
Table 3-3 lists the low priority recommendations. Program elements where no gaps were identified are listed in this table as well as those that can be addressed by utilizing existing DEQ templates (e.g. program implementation). The
table also includes low priority items that require minimal program updates to maintain permit compliance (e.g. construction site runoff controls).

III.A Program Documentation
The permittee maintained documentation of all program components including, but not limited to, inspections,
maintenance activities, educational programs, implementation of BMPs, enforcement actions etc., on file for a
period of five years.
The City should maintain documentation of all program components including, but not limited to, inspections, maintenance
activities, educational programs, implementation of BMPs, enforcement actions etc., on file for a period of five years. Specific areas
of the program requiring strengthened documentation are noted in sections below.
III.B Annual Report Submittal The Annual Reports included appropriate information to accurately describe the progress, s tatus, and results of the
permittee’s Stormwater Plan, including, but not limited the following:
The City should use the current DEQ annual report template.
https://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-and-land-resources/stormwater/stormwater-program/npdes-ms4-1
IV. B Annual Reporting
The Annual Reports document the following:
1. A summary of past year activities, including where applicable, specific quantities achieved and summaries
of enforcement actions.
2. A description of the effectiveness of each program component.
3. Planned activities and changes for the next reporting period, for each program component or activity.
4. Fiscal analysis.
The City currently uses the DEQ annual report template; there appear to be some inconsistency with the annual template and the
DEQ audit template. According to the audit template questions, he City's annual reporting should include a detailed description of
the state of implementation of the Stormwater Plan including schedules and plans for the year following the report. The City's annual
reporting should also describe effectiveness of each program component and a summary and trend of data including assessment of
what the data means for implementation of the SWMP

Section 4: Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping
Evaluation
This section describes the methods used to screen the City’s existing facility inventory to determine select
sites for PPGH evaluations, the methods used to perform field evaluations of the select sites, and to provide
the observations and recommendations from the PPGH evaluation. The facility inventory has been
established by the Property Management department to identify properties leased or owned by the City. BC
categorized the inventory to assess the priority level (high, medium or low) of each site based on the
operations performed at the site and proximity to waterways that could increase the potential to cause
stormwater pollution. The Facility inventory is included in Attachment D.
At this time, the owning department of each facility has been designated as the responsible party for facility
maintenance activities and operations, and the Stormwater Management Division has maintained minimal
coordination with those facilities. The City has not established a written inspection and maintenance
program that coordinates with facilities, identified routine requirement for, inspections and maintenance
activities, roles and responsibilities for both owning departments and Stormwater Management Division, or
an annual program assessment procedure.
City facilities with industrial permits are responsible for developing and maintaining their own site-specific
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs), as required in their industrial permits. The stormwater
engineer has begun consulting with owning departments of the NPDES permitted facilities for their spill
procedures and spill preparedness.
The City provided BC an inventory of City owned facilities from the Property Management Department. From
this list, sites were classified based on the type of activities and operations that are conducted on-site. Once
classified, sites were catalogued as either low, medium, or high priority. Field visits were completed on a
select number of sites that conducted high pollution potential operations (e.g. vehicle maintenance and
fueling).
4.1 Municipal Facility Inventory Evaluation
The purpose of municipal facility evaluation was to identify municipal facilities that have the potential to
generate polluted stormwater runoff. This includes facilities that pose a potential risk of stormwater pollution
based on the types of activities performed on-site. A list of municipal facilities was generated from the 2019-
2020 City Property Schedule for this evaluation. While likely comprehensive for sites with a potential to
generate polluted stormwater runoff, it is recommended that the City review this list with a comprehensive
list of municipal properties from a source such as the County Property Appraiser’s Office.
Activities that are considered a potential risk of pollution to the stormwater system include:
• Vehicle repair/ maintenance
• Vehicle/ equipment washing
• Fueling
• Pesticide, herbicide, and fertilizer storage
• Deicing material storage
• Bulk material storage
• Potential for high waste generation, including facilities caring for animals

Final RM MS4 Gap Analysis Report
• NPDES Permitted
Sites were classified based on the type of activities that are typically conducted on-site. BC relied on site
activity descriptions from City staff in this effort. Once classified, sites were given a generalized pollution
potential risk level of Low, Medium, or High (see Attachment D).
4.2 Municipal Facility Visits
From the inventory of City-owned facilities, five sites were selected for field visits to evaluate existing site
procedures for understanding of and adherence to good housekeeping practices to protect the stormwater
system. The five sites selected for field evaluation were:
• Environmental Services Center
• Wastewater Treatment Plant
• Fleet Maintenance Complex
• Fire Station # 1
• Animal Service Unit
Site visits were performed to determine common housekeeping challenges between facilities, operations,
and City staff practices. The field team was comprised of both BC and City of Rocky Mount staff. The team
completed a field evaluation form for each facility. A blank copy of the field form can be found in Appendix C.
Upon arrival at each facility, the team met with the facility operator(s) to discuss typical activities and
response procedures that occur on-site. While touring the facility, the team focused on activities identified
during the initial discussion, verifying that the specific structural components were in place for each activity.
During site visits the ream also discussed protocols and re
4.3 Observations
Based on field inspections, there are a few inconsistencies in the implementation of good housekeeping
requirements between facilities. The purpose of this section is to outline the procedures and observations to
aid in the adoption of a consistent approach across facilities to establish the good housekeeping program.
4.3.1 Spill Kits and Spill Response
The most common observation made across all facilities was the appropriate placement, stocking, and
labeling of spill kits. Individual spill kits should be easy to locate and in close proximity to any high spill
potential activity, such as fueling stations, maintenance areas, bulk liquid/waste oil storage, and waste
receptacles. Spill kits should contain fresh absorbents and should be checked for inventory on a set
schedule. Signage should be posted where spill kits are located with instructions on handling a spill and who
to call if a spill occurs. Figure 4-1 shows an example of appropriate signage for a fueling station.

Figure 4-1. Spill response signage
In addition to having spill kits accessible, some facilities did not have a written procedure for spill response.
Spill response training should be offered by the City for municipally owned facility staff.
4.3.2 Waste Storage
Another observation made during the field visits was inconsistencies in waste storage. Spent oil or other
liquid waste should be stored in appropriately labeled containers, including secondary containment. These
containers should be securely covered to prevent stormwater runoff. If temporary basins or containers are
used for liquid waste, they should be immediately transferred to the appropriate waste area once the activity
is complete. Waste containers should be inspected regularly for signs of corrosion or other indicators that a
spill may occur in the future. Opaque containers should have a level gauge or overflow structure to prevent
overfilling. Double-walled containers can also be used as secondary containment to further prevent spills. As
discussed in Section 4.3.2, areas with liquid waste storage should have at least one spill kit within close
proximity.

Figure 4-2. Improper Waste Oil Storage
All City-owned facilities possess dumpsters for solid waste storage. Some dumpsters were observed to be
overfilled, which led to trash being blown out of the container. Solid waste storage containers, such as
dumpsters, should be covered to properly contain the waste and reduce the mixing of stormwater runoff and
solid waste leachate. Dumpsters should be located in an area that is accessible for routine pick up and
should be placed on stable, even ground.

Figure 4-3. Improper Dumpster Storage
4.3.3 Inlet Protection:
Some areas were observed to be lacking inlet protection in high runoff areas. This led to some inlets being
obstructed with sediment and trash. Protective filter socks or similar device should be used when inlets are
located in areas with high potential for runoff. This prevents pollution downstream and reduces the
frequency of maintenance within the MS4. The City could engage in an inlet inspection schedule that would
allow for inlets to receive maintenance/cleaning before they become obstructed. Additionally, during the

4.4 Recommendations
From this evaluation the following recommendations have been developed for the PPGH compliance:
• Site Pollution Prevention Plans. The City does not maintain facility specific O&M plans or site-specific
spill response procedures and need to be developed for municipal facilities owned and operated by the
City that have significant potential for generating polluted stormwater runoff. BC recommends that the
Stormwater Management Division should coordinate with facilities to establish spill response plans for
identified facilities and operations.
• Spill Response. The City does not maintain spill response procedures; these need to be developed for
municipal facilities and operations. The City should coordinate with facilities to establish spill response
procedures for identified municipal operations that include guidance on maintaining adequate spill kits.
• Waste Storage. The City does not provide requirements for waste storage (e.g. bulk used oil) that would
aid in pollution prevention. The City should provide training or information on practices and level and/or
containment mechanisms for waste oil.
• Inlet Protection. Some inlets were clogged and/or surrounded by debris or in line with operations that
could cause pollution to the stormwater sewer. The City should provide guidance and an
inspection/maintenance interval to ensure inlet protection.
• NPDES Permitting. Based on preliminary discussion with DEQ, it was noted by Jeanette Powell (MS4
Program Coordinator) that most municipal fleet maintenance facilities are subject to the NCG080000
permit and that the regional office staff make that specific determination for a facility. The City does not
currently have an industrial permit for its fleet maintenance facility. The City is not obligated to initiate
the permitting process; the State would make the designation and follow though the permitting process
and the City should be aware of this potential industrial permit designation.
