Part 1 - Stormwater Controls
1. Best Management Practices
a. List the non/stnxctural controls employed by the
1. Buildings are used to store some materials by the facility.

b. Are the non-structural BMPs reasonable & appropriate for the facility? ®Yes ❑No
Please increase the cleaning frequency of the parking lot and the settling basin inor er to
maintain good housekeeping practices.
c. Are stonnwater control measures (5CMs) installed correctly, maintained, and effective operating condition?
Comments
®Yes ❑ No ❑ N/A
To prevent illicit discharges, please clean out the settling basin near the truck wash
station.
2. Provide a brief description of other controls that manage/prevent/minimize Stormwater runoff
(e.g., erosion and sediment controls, inlet protection/control at storm drains, diversion structures):
Hartley Ready Mix Concrete uses a two truck mixer pits that contains all process water. Hartley
Ready Mix Concrete also uses a settling basin to capture all debris rom entering the stream.
Part 2 —Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDOs)
1. Any evidence of discharge to receiving waters/MS4 from the SDOs? (e.g.: stonnwater runoff, dry weather
discharge, co -mingling of process wastewater, trash, debris, oil and grease): ❑Yes ®No
On August 11, 2021, Stormwater staff noticed dry weather discharge from the settling
basin that had particles which ultimately discharged into Salem Creek. Hartley Ready Mix
discharges directly into Salem Creek instead of entering the M84 system.
2) Do the Stormwater outfalls on -site correspond with those listed on the site map in the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP)? ®Yes ❑No
If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must record "No Flow" or
"No Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the sampling period in the facility's
monitoring records. "No Flow" or "No Discharge" shall be reported on the Annual
Summary Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) due by March 1
