CITY OF BELMONT 'I STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
The information that follows comprises the entire stormwater management program of the
City of Belmont, North Carolina for the five year permit period beginning November 30,
2016. This program and accompanying permit application are subject to the review and
approval of the NCDEMLR. As the program continues and experience is gained as to the
successfulness of program elements, modifications and additions may be made to
enhance the program effectiveness. Any changes to the program are subject to prior
review and approval by the permitting agency.
It shall be noted that the City of Belmont has a Watershed Water Supply IV Program and
a Phase II Stormwater Program within the City Limits. Belmont is located between the
main branch of the Catawba River and the South Fork of the Catawba River. The center
of the City lies approximately halfway between these two major water courses, with the
tributary divide between the two basins running north and south through the downtown.
As such, stormwater runoff from the City flows in approximately equal portions either to
the east toward the Catawba River or westerly to the South Fork. The eastern portion of
the City is subject to the Watershed Water Supply IV rules. The Watershed Water Supply
IV rules are regulated and enforced by the City of Belmont, while the western portion of
the City is subject to Phase 11 Stormwater rules. The Phase II Stormwater Post
Construction and Construction Site Runoff rules, through adoption of the Gaston County
Stormwater Ordinance, Gaston County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control
Ordinance, and Inter -local Agreements with Gaston County, are regulated and enforced
by and in cooperation with, Gaston County Natural Resources (GNR).
1. Population and Estimated Growth: Belmont's population per a certified estimate
from State demographer is 10,975 as of July 1, 2015. The City is not subject to seasonal
variations in population. The annual population growth rate for the MS4 service area is
1.48 percent. This has been calculated on the basis of the relative change between the
2007 and 2015 Office of State Budget and Management population data. More recent
population data is not available.
2. Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas: The City of Belmont is comprised of 10.1
square miles within its current City Limits. In addition to the area within the city limits,
Belmont has planning jurisdictional authority within two areas bounding the City on the
south and west. These extra -territorial jurisdiction (ETJ) areas total 3.7 square miles. The
MS4 service area is the area within the current City Limits. Belmont does not have
authority to operate or maintain storm sewer systems outside its municipal corporate
boundaries.
3. MS4 Conveyance System: Belmont is located between the main branch of the
Catawba River and the South Fork of the Catawba River. The center of the City lies
approximately halfway between these two major water courses, with the tributary divide
between the two basins running north and south through the downtown. As such,
stormwater runoff from the City flows in approximately equal portions either to the east
toward the Catawba River orwesterly to the South Fork. Although a separate storm sewer
CITY OF 13ELMONT 2 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
system exists throughout the city, the system is not extensive. There is a heavy reliance
on local streams, creeks and ditches to convey runoff to the rivers. Maintenance of the
MS4 is on an "as needed" basis to unclog pipes, clean catch basins, and otherwise
maintain the system. Under current City regulations and practice, only conveyances
within City rights of way and easements are maintained. NCDOT maintains stormwater
conveyances in rights of way failing under their jurisdiction, also on an "as needed" basis.
4. Land Use Composition Estimates: The following is an estimate of the percentage
of the MS4 service area that consist of residential, commercial, industrial, and open space
land uses!
Residential 75%
Commercial 10%
Industrial 5%
Open Space 10%
Total 100%
These estimates were obtained using CAD methods from Gaston County GIS mapping
data. Commercial and industrial land uses were calculated on this basis from the city's
official zoning map which is maintained by the County GIS Department. Open space
consists of the approximate areas of the many parks and recreational areas (sports fields)
in the City. The areas of the commercial, industrial and open space were subtracted from
the total jurisdictional area to derive the residential land uses. These estimates are based
on zoning designations. Vacant property was classified by zoning district and accordingly
is included in the four categories. The areas of Institutional land uses such as Belmont
Abbey College, Sisters of Mercy Campus, tour public schools and the many churches in
Belmont were included in the residential category.

6. TMDL Identification:
6.1. BMP Summary Table (Appendix A)
6.2. Lake Wylie TMDL Nutrient Management — In 1995 a TMDL for chlorophyll a was
developed for Lake Wylie, This TMDL set a total phosphorous (TP) and total
nitrogen (TN) limits for WWTPs discharging to Lake Wylie. The City of Belmont
Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) has Total Phosphorus and Total Nitrogen
discharge limits set under its individual NPDES Permit. Pretreatment Inspections,
Testing, and Cleaning Schedules for two industries, and all restaurants and car
washes connected to the sanitary sewer system are performed, scheduled, and
monitored by the Wastewater Pretreatment Division to ensure that acceptable
levels of Phosphates, Nitrogen, BOD, grease, etc. are entering the WWTP.
This TMDL does not have an approved WLA assigned to stormwaterinon-point
sources. The City is working to reduce nutrients from non -point sources by tailoring
existing BMPs to better target nutrient loading,
6.2.1. Public Education and Outreach — Spotlight erosion and sedimentation
control, lawn care and disposal of yard waste, and illicit discharges in
educational materials and at educational events to inform citizens of the
negative impacts total phosphorus and total nitrogen can have on water
quality. Promote the Stormwater hotlinelhelpline and encourage citizens to
report observed or suspected pollution.
6.2.2, Public Involvement and Participation —maintain the volunteerstorm drain
labeling program with efforts to increase participation. Promote the
Stormwater hotline/he 1pline and encourage citizens to report observed or
suspected pollution. Recommend to the Stormwater Committee starting a
Volunteer Stream Clean -Up or Adopt -A -Stream Program,
6.2.3. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE) — maintain the IDDE
Program and with efforts to increase the number of stream walks and system
inspections to find and eliminate illicit discharges and/or connections.
Promote the Stormwater hotlinelhelp line and encourage citizens to report
observed or suspected pollution.
6.2.4. Construction Site Runoff Controls — Maintain construction site
inspections and reporting to Gaston Natural Resources. Gaston Natural
Resources permits and enforces the EBSC Ordinance.
6,2.5. Post -Construction Site Runoff Controls — maintain the current program
and ensure that new development, and redevelopment, subject to
CITY OF BEiMONT ! STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
Stormwater Ph II Rules or WSIV Rules are following through with approved
plans, BMP inspection and maintenance, and annual reporting.
6.2.6. Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping for Municipal
Operations — Maintain and evaluate Facility Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) to work better for each unique facility. Maintain
Street Sweeping Program.
6.2.7. Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) — monitor NCDEMLR List of
Approved TMDLs to stay abreast of any new TMDLs that the City of Belmont
may become subject to. Update annually.
6.3. Mercury Statewide TMDL — In 2012, NCDENR developed a statewide mercury
TMDL to determine how wastewater discharges, in -state air sources, and out-of-
state air sources contribute to the surface water mercury load. This TMDL
acknowledged that most mercury in stormwater comes from atmospheric
deposition and that concentrations in stormwater are typically within the same
range as mercury concentrations in rainwater, between zero and 10 ng/L. No MS4
NPDES WLA for mercury was assigned for this TMDL.

13. Public Education and Outreach
13.1. BMP Summary Table (Appendix A)
13.2. Goals and Objectives: The Public Education and Outreach Program works to inform
the public on what stormwater is, how it affects water quality, why this is important, and
what the public can do to prevent and reduce pollution in stormwater. Many residents are
unaware that the stormwater system is not connected to the sanitary sewer system and
that runoff is not treated before draining into local streams and rivers. Communicating this
simple fact is imperative to affecting public behavioral change. Once the public is aware
of stormwater and its potential for pollution, the Public Education and Outreach Program
works to equip the public with practices they can use to help protect water quality.
13.3. Target Pollutant Sources: The City is not aware of any significant target pollutant
sources but will concentrate on used oil disposal; proper handling, applications and
disposal of lawn and insect chemicals; sediments; and disposal of household cleaning
chemicals, paint, illicit discharges, etc. As the City proceeds through this SWMP, it is
expected that the impact of these sources of pollution will be better defined and other
significant sources identified. Because the education program will be continuous during
the permit period, and presumably during subsequent permit renewals, the content of the
educational materials and presentations will change to meet the objectives of the SWMP.
13.3.1, Lawn Care Activities — Improper application, handling and storage of lawn care
products such as pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers can result in the discharge
of pollutants to the storm drain system. Improper disposal of grass clippings and
leaves can negatively impact water quality by depleting oxygen levels in
waterways. Significant residential development exists in the City of Belmont with
the potential for negative water quality impacts associated with improper lawn care
activities.
13.3.2. Improper Disposal — Improper disposal can result in the discharge of a variety of
pollutants to the storm drainage system. This can be a problem at construction
sites where paint and other construction wastes are generated and in established
commercial and residential areas where used oil, grease, animal waste, household
cleaners, paints and a variety of other pollutants can be a problem.
13.3.3. Poor Housekeeping — Poor housekeeping can result in the discharge of
petroleum products, miscellaneous chemicals and other wastes to the storm drain
system and surface waters. This is usually a problem at commercial facilities.
13.3.4, Erosion — Poor erosion control and soil stabilization at construction sites, utility
maintenance, and residential and commercial lawns results in sediment
discharges to the storm drainage system.
13.3.5. Pet Waste — Pet waste contains bacteria, viruses, and parasites that are harmful
to human health. Contact with stormwater runoff carries these bacteria, viruses,
and parasites into waterways.
13.4. Target Audiences: The target audiences for the education program include those likely
CITY OF BELMONT 17 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
to have significant stormwater impacts. Homeowners were selected as a primary target
for the educational program due to the significant positive and negative impacts they could
have on water quality. This is also the group that will most likely engage in activities such
as disposal of auto oil and household wastes, disposal of yard wastes, application -of
fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides, pet waste, etc. Commercial facilities such as gas
stations, car washes, restaurants, shopping centers and industrial warehouses/plants
were targeted for the educational program due to the significant impacts they could have
on water quality by potentially improperly handling and disposing of wastes, making illicit
connections to the storm drain system, and practicing poor housekeeping at their facilities.
Through education, the City is hopeful that it can inform and advise the public of the small
behavioral changes that can be made to improve water quality.
13.5. Residential Issues:
13.5.1. Lawn Care— Yard waste disposal such as leaves, limbs, brush, grass clippings,
etc. are to be placed at curb for pickup by contracted disposal service, but often
the debris is placed in the street or in the curb -line. Rain events can wash leaves,
limbs, yard debris into the storm drains which clog storm drains'as well as having
potential to be conveyed to waterways. As these items decompose in waterways
they deplete oxygen levels in the water.
13.5.2. Improper Disposalllliegal Dumping of Hazardous Household Materials such
as paints, cleaners, other household chemicals, and used vehicle oil and fluids
often contain toxins, heavy metals, and nutrients. These pollutants can negatively
impact water quality, wildlife, and human health.
13.5.3. Erosion — Bare areas on lawns and common open spaces can lead to sediment
discharges to the storm drain system. Sediment build up in the system can lead to
clogs, system failures, and polluted waterways.
13.6. Commercial issues:
13.6.1. Poor Housekeeping such as overflowing or leaking dumpsters, spills
atloverflowing grease containers, loose trash and debris in parking lots, and
improper disposal of wastes. Aging commercial properties have the potential for
illicit connections to the storm drain system. illicit connections include, but are not
limited to, floor drains and sanitary sewer connections.
13.7. Informational Website: The Stormwater Management web site is one of the best ways
to provide the general public with educational stormwater information. The web site
includes Stormwater Management Contact Information, FAQs, Educational Materials,
links to stormwater related web sites, and stormwater ordinances
http:llwww.cityofbelmont.or41308/Sto rmwater-Management
13.8. Distribution of Public Education Materials - Educational materials and promotional
items have been developed to target homeowners, commercial facilities and the general
CITY OF BELMONT 18 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
public. All materials and promotional items include the slogan "Keep It Clean, We Ail Live
Downstream", Hotline Number, and City website address. Promotional items are
comprised of pens, stadium cups, and magnetic chip clips. Educational materials are
made available at the City Hall information kiosk. Educational materials and promotional
items are given out at stormwater educational presentations. Staff participate in
community events to promote stormwater education, give out educational materials and
promotional items, and provide one-on-one education opportunities. Community events
include:
13.8.1. Annual Spring Festival
13.8.2. Annual City Pride Day
13.8.3. Annual Earth Day/Arbor Day
13.8.4. Annual Big Sweep Event
13.8.5. Annual Fall Festival
13.9. Hotline/Helpline: The Stormwater Coordinator's office telephone number, (704)901-
2076, serves as the Hotline/Help Line and is set up with a voice message service for the
public to requests services, or report stormwater pollution, illicit discharges, and erosion
control issues. The Hotline/Help Line is printed on all educational materials and
promotional items, and is also on the City web site, located on the Stormwater
Management page http:/Avww.cilyofbeImont.org/308/Stormwater-Management
13,10. Outreach Program: The outreach program includes the distribution of printed
educational materials and promotional items with the website address and hotline/helpline
printed on them at specific meetings with commercial and industrial businesses, class
room educational presentations, and prominent visibility at City sponsored festivals. The
program includes TV commercials and radio spots broadcast throughout the region in
cooperation with the Regional Stormwater Partnership. City festivals and community
events are well attended by Belmont citizens and offer one-on-one educational
opportunities. The City's webpage is visited by citizens and non -city users for information
on education and development. Targeted meetings with the commercial and industrial
community in Belmont is expected to be very effective in distributing information to those
individuals that have the most opportunity of making immediate impact on water quality.
The number of target audience participants will vary by the outreach element.
13.11. Decision Process: The education program presented herein is consistent with the
requirements of the NPDES Phase II regulations and guidance materials. Education
programs enacted by Phase I NPDES communities have had a positive impact in those
jurisdictions.
13,12, Evaluation: The measurable goals consist of a specific number of events to occur under
the BMPs proposed. Although the annual evaluation will be based on accomplishing those
events, the City will also subjectively evaluate the effectiveness of the BMPs after they are
implemented. Adjustment to the materials and presentations will be likely to improve the
message.

15. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination
15.1. BMP Summary Table (Appendix A)
15.2. Regulatory Mechanism: The western portion of the City of Belmont, Phase It Stormwater
area, has been under the Gaston County Stormwater Ordinance since July 7, 2007. The
Gaston County Stormwater Ordinance includes a section on Illicit Discharge Detection
and Elimination and has been enforced by Gaston County officials. However, the eastern
portion of the City of Belmont, Watershed Water -Supply IV area, was not covered by the
Gaston County Stormwater Ordinance. On September 15, 2009 the City of Belmont
adopted a separate Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Ordinance, which is
enforceable by the City of Belmont and encompasses the entire jurisdictional area.
15.3, Storm Sewer System Map: Several years ago, the City undertook to develop a storm
sewer system atlas in anticipation of the impending NPDES Phase II regulations. The field
inspections were completed by summer interns and system elements were approximately
located on existing sanitary sewer and water main maps. The information was transferred
to a digital storm sewer map. These maps are checked for accuracy as the ongoing illicit
discharge detection and elimination program and MS4 inspections are implemented. As
the MS4 is inspected, the existing maps are updated by hand with the information
received. As significant information is obtained, the mapping will be computer updated
and published.
15.4. Dry Weather Flow Screening is incorporated into the Stormwater System Inspection and
Mapping Program (SWIM). As system elements and outfalls are inspected and mapped
on GPS, dry weather flow screening is performed. Inspections are perforrimed, at
minimum, twenty-four hours after a rain event to ensure flows are not Stormwater runoff.
Observed flows at any system element triggers an Illicit Discharge/Connection

18.10. Prevent or Minimize Contamination of Stormwater Runoff From All Areas
used for Vehicle and Equipment Cleaning: The City of Belmont does not currently
own or operate a covered vehicle wash bay with an oil/water separator connected to the
sanitary sewer system. However there is a project for a dedicated wash bay to be installed
at Public Works on the Capital Improvements Project List. Vehicle and Equipment
cleaning is covered in the SWPPP Section V and includes guidelines and practices to
prevent or minimize contamination of slormwater runoff from areas used for Vehicle and
Equipment Washing.
The Sludge Transfer Station at the Wastewater Treatment Plant is a designated area for
municipally -owned vehicles and equipment. This area is on an asphalt drive with a drop
inlet drain that is connected to the influent of the plant so that wash water drains to the
headworks and goes through the wastewater treatment plant. Use of biodegradable
phosphate -free wash detergent is required.
A second designated wash area is located at the rear of Public Works on a gravel area
that sheet flows to the surrounding vegetated area where wash water is absorbed by
the vegetation and soil. Use of biodegradable phosphate -free wash detergent is
required.
18,11. Waste Disposal: The City has and will continue to dispose of waste removed from the
MS4 and other municipal operations, including accumulated sediments, floatables, and
other debris at a certified landfill in accordance with the regulations governing the disposal
facility.
18.12. Flood Management Projects: There are no .existing or proposed flood plain
management projects. Should one be proposed in the future, particularly to facilitate the
development of property, the City will review the project through its current project/plan
review procedures. This process involves the Planning Department, Public Works
Department and Engineering Department,
18.13. Decision Process: The pollution prevention/good housekeeping program was developed
in cooperation with the City's Administrative, Public Works, and Planning Departments
and measurable goals established. Appropriate staff was designated as the responsible
person for each BMP.
18.14. Evaluation: The pollution prevention program is evaluated annually during the
preparation of the annual compliance report. The Stormwater Coordinator evaluates the
effectiveness of the program and recommends modifications and improvements to the
Public Works Director. The BMP measurable goals are indicated in the BMP summary.
CITY OF BELMONT 35 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
19. Practices to Inspect and Maintain Structural Stormwater Control Devices: The City
of Belmont owns three structural stormwater control measures (SCMs), however none of the
SCMs were required for water quality or treatment purposes per the City's Watershed Protection
Ordinance or the adopted Gaston County Stormwater Ordinance.
Gantt Soccer Park — approximately 1760 SOFT of Permeable (nterlocking Concrete Pavers
(PICP) make up 10 parking spaces in the parking lot.
Kevin Loftin Riverfront Park — approximately 1005 SOFT of Permeable Interlocking Concrete
Pavers (PICP) at the parking lot entrance round -a -bout. Also at this site is a 0.8' x 1.5' x 70'
Concrete Level Spreader which drains the PICP, Parking Lot, and portions of surrounding Open
Spaces.
O&Ms have been developed for each of the structural stormwater controls and they are located
in the Streets & Stormwater System Operation & Maintenance Manual (SSSOMM). The O&Ms
include inspection schedules and maintenance procedures for each of the SCMs.
20. Practices to Reduce Polluted Stormwater Runoff from Municipally -Owned Streets,
Roads, and Public Parking Lots, Storm Drains/Catch Basins/Drainage Structures,
Manholes, Piped and Vegetative Conveyances: The City of Belmont has developed a
Streets & Stormwater System Operation and Maintenance Manual (SSSOMM) to outline
practices that work to reduce polluted stormwater runoff from municipally owned Streets, Roads,
Public Parking Lots, storm drains and drainage structures, piped and vegetative conveyances,
and storm sewer manholes.
20.1. Streets, Roads, and Public Parking Lots: The City currently has a street sweeping
program that helps to reduce floatable materials and other pollutants from reaching the
MS4. City Streets, as well as several NCDOT roads, are separated into routes for the
Street Sweeper Operator to work in. The Recommended Schedule for sweeping City
Streets is list as well but adherence to schedule is heavily based on the Stormwater
Department's work schedule. Street Sweeper maintenance down -time is also a
determining factor in the sweeping schedule. The City also has a list of Priority Streets
comprised of major thorough fares and areas historically prone to flooding, that are kept
clean whether by running the street sweeper or by manually cleaning off storm drain tops
with shovels. Public parking lots and City Facility parking lots are to be swept on a quarterly
and/or as needed basis.
20.2. Storm Drains/Catch Basins/Drainage Structures: Storm drains, catch basins, and/or
drainage structures are to be inspected annually for build-up of sediments, debris, trash,
vegetation, structural condition, etc. If SD/CB is one-third to one-half full from the invert of
pipe to the top of the grate, then it requires cleaning. If SD/CB is more than one-half full
then it should be cleaned more frequently. If the structural condition requires maintenance,
the drainage structure is scheduled for maintenance by city staff or contracted repair.
CITY OF BELMONT 36 STCRMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Permit Renewal — November 2016
20.3. Manholes: MS4 manholes are to be inspected annually for build-up of sediments, debris,
trash, vegetation, structural condition, etc. If the manhole is one-third to one-half full from
the invert of pipe to the top of the grate, then it requires cleaning. If the manhole is more
than one-half full then it should be cleaned more frequently. If the structural condition
requires maintenance, the manhole is scheduled for maintenance by city staff or
contracted repair.
20.4. Piped Conveyances: Piped conveyances are to be inspected annually for build-up of
sediments, debris, trash, vegetation, structural condition, etc. If pipe is one-third to one-
half full from the invert of pipe to the top of the pipe, then it requires cleaning. -if pipe is
more than one-half full then it should be cleaned more frequently. If the structural condition
requires maintenance, the piped conveyance is scheduled for maintenance by city staff or
contracted repair.
20.5. Vegetated Conveyances: Vegetated conveyances are to be inspected annually for build-
up of sediments, debris, trash, vegetation, structural condition, etc. If the vegetated
conveyance is one-third to one-half full from the invert to the lop of the slope, then it
requires cleaning. If the vegetative conveyance is more than one-half full then it should
be cleaned more frequently. If the vegetated conveyance is eroding or washing out, then
it requires maintenance and is put on schedule for maintenance by city staff or contracted
repair.
21. Describe any training programs for municipal staff:
21.1. Good Housekeeping and Pollution Prevention Training is implemented on an annual
basis to those employees involved in implementing pollution prevention and good
housekeeping practices. The training is conducted by the Stormwater Coordinator who

1 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT
I
This Stormwater Management Program Report has been prepared in support of an
1
1
application for permit renewal under the NPDES Phase II stormwater permit program. As
such, it provides information regarding the management plan developed by the City of
Belmont to protect and lessen the pollutant impact on the streams and rivers which cross
and abut the City and its municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4). The format and
organization of the report conform to the requirements of the NPDES Stormwater Permit
Application Form (SWU-264-103102) and the Instructions for Preparing the
Comprehensive Stormwater Management Program Report (SWU-268-103102), both
documents as presented by the North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural
Resources (NCDENR) - Division of Water Quality.
This management program report is divided into seven sections:
1. Storm Sewer System Information.
2, Receiving Streams.
3. Existing Water Quality Programs.
4. Permitting Information.
5. Co -Permitting Information.
6. Reliance on Other Government Entity.
7. Stormwater Management Program.
The information that follows comprises the entire stormwater management program of
the City of Belmont, North Carolina for the five year permit period beginning July 1,
2010. This program and accompanying permit application are subject to the review and
approval of the NCDENR - Division of Water Quality. As the program continues and
experience is gained as to the successfulness of program elements, modifications and
additions may be made to enhance the program effectiveness. Any changes to the
program are subject to prior review and approval by the permitting agency.
It shall be noted that the City of Belmont has a Watershed Water Supply IV Program and
a Phase li Stormwater Program within the City Limits. Belmont is located between the
main branch of the Catawba River and the South Fork of the Catawba River. The center
of the City lies approximately halfway between these two major water courses, with the
tributary divide between the two basins running north and south through the downtown.
As such, stormwater runoff from the City flows in approximately equal portions either to
the east toward the Catawba River or westerly to the South Fork. The eastern portion of
the City is subject to the Watershed Water Supply 1V rules. The Watershed Water
Supply IV rules are regulated and enforced by the City of Belmont, while the western
portion of the City is subject to Phase 11 Stormwater rules. The Phase 11 Stormwater
Post Construction and Construction Site Runoff rules, through adoption of the Gaston

1. Storm Sewer System Information
1.1. Population Served: Belmont's population per the 2008 Office of State
P p p
Budget and Management data is 10,264. The City is not subject to seasonal
variations in population.
1.2. Growth Rate: The annual population growth rate for the MS4 service area is
' 2 percent. This has been calculated on the basis of the relative change
between the 2000 and 2008 Office of State Budget and Management
population data. More recent population data is not available.
1.3. Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas: The City of Belmont is comprised
of 8.5 square miles within its current City Limits. In addition to the area within
the city limits, Belmont has planning jurisdictional authority within two areas
bounding the City on the south and west. These extra -territorial jurisdiction
(ETJ) areas total 3.7 square miles. The MS4 service area is the area within
' the current City Limits. Belmont does not have authority to operate or
maintain storm sewer systems outside its municipal corporate boundaries.
1.4. MS4 Conveyance System: Belmont is located between the main branch of
the Catawba River and the South Fork of the Catawba River. The center of
the City lies approximately halfway between these two major water courses,
with the tributary divide between the two basins running north and south
through the downtown. As such, stormwater runoff from the City flows in
approximately equal portions either to the east toward the Catawba River or
westerly to the South Fork. Although a separate storm sewer system exists
' throughout the city, the system is not extensive. There is a heavy reliance on
local streams, creeks and ditches to convey runoff to the rivers. Maintenance
of the MS4 is on an "as needed" basis to unclog pipes, clean catch basins,
and otherwise maintain the system. Under current City regulations and
practice, only facilities within City rights of way and easements are
maintained. NCDOT maintains stormwater facilities in rights of way falling
' under their jurisdiction, also on an "as needed" basis.
1.5. Land Use Composition Estimates: The following is an estimate of the
percentage of the MS4 service area that consist of residential, commercial,
1 industrial, and open space land uses:
Residential 75%
Commercial 10%
Industrial 5%
Open Space 10%
Total 100%
1.6. Estimate Methodology: These estimates were obtained using CAD
methods from Gaston County GIS mapping data. Commercial and industrial
land uses were calculated on this basis from the city's official zoning map
which is maintained by the County GIS Department. Open space consists of
the approximate areas of the many parks and recreational areas (sports

fields) in the City. The areas of the commercial, industrial and open space
were subtracted from the total jurisdictional area to derive the residential land
uses. These estimates are based on zoning designations. Vacant property
was classified by zoning district and accordingly is included in the four
categories. The areas of Institutional land uses such as Belmont Abbey
College, Sisters of Mercy Campus, four public schools and the many
churches in Belmont were included in the residential category.
1.7. TMDL Identification: The MS4 does not discharge to a body of water or
receiving stream for which Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) allocations
have been established by the Environmental Protection Agency or NCDENR.

' 7. Stormwater Management Program Plan
This stormwater management program (SWMP) Is designed to reduce the discharge of
pollutants from the MS4 to the maximum extent practicable (MEP), to protect water
quality, and to satisfy the appropriate water quality requirements of the Clean Water Act.
For each of the measures listed below, a table summarizing the best management
' practices (BMPs) that will be used, the frequency of the BMP, the measurable goals for
each BMP, the implementation schedule, and the responsible person or position for
implementation is provided. The table is located in Appendix A.
7.1. Public Education and Outreach on Storm Water Impacts
7.1.1. BMP Summary Table (Appendix A)
7.1.2. Target Audience: The target audiences for the education program include those
likely to have significant stormwater impacts. They include the general public,
school children, and specific business groups such as gas stations, car washes,
' construction companies, contractors, developers, industrial plants and other
categories that may have significant impact on water quality. In addition, the
program includes the distribution of educational and training materials to all City
employees. Through education, the City is hopeful that it can inform and advise
' the public of the small behavioral changes that can be made to improve water
quality.
' 7.1.3. Target Pollutant Sources: The City is not aware of any significant target
pollutant sources but will concentrate on used oil disposal; proper handling,
applications and disposal of lawn and insect chemicals; sediments; and disposal
of household cleaning chemicals, paint, illicit discharges, etc. As the City proceeds
through this SWMP, it is expected that the impact of these sources of pollution will
be better defined and other significant sources identified. Because the education
' program will be continuous during the permit period, and presumably during
subsequent permit renewals, the content of the educational materials and
presentations will change to meet the objectives of the SWMP.
7.1.4. Outreach Program: The outreach program includes the preparation of printed
materials, TV commercials and radio spots broadcast throughout the region in
cooperation with the Regional Stormwater Partnership, specific meetings with
commercial and industrial businesses, class room educational presentations, and
prominent visibility at City sponsored festivals. The number of target audience
participants will vary by the outreach element. City festivals are well attended by
Belmont citizens. The City's webpage is visited by non -city users for information,
but it is felt that better advertising of its existence on water bills for instance, will
increase its use. Targeted meetings with the commercial and industrial community
' in Belmont is expected to be very effective in distributing information to those
individuals that have the most opportunity of making immediate impact on water
quality.

7.1.5. Decision Process: The education program presented herein is consistent with
the requirements of the NPDES Phase II regulations and guidance materials.
Education programs enacted by Phase I NPDES communities have had a positive
impact in, those jurisdictions.
7.1.6. Evaluation: The measurable goals consist of a specific number of events to
occur under the BMPs proposed. Although the annual evaluation will be based on
accomplishing those events, the City will also subjectively evaluate the
effectiveness of the BMPs after they are implemented. Adjustment to the materials
and presentations will be likely to improve the message.
7.2. Public Involvement and Participation
7.2.1. BMP Summary Table (Appendix A)
7.2.2 Minimum Requirements: The City of Belmont has complied with the minimum
State and local public notice requirements when implementing a public
involvement and participation program. The City advertised and held a public
hearing on February 26, 2003. A copy of the advertisement for the public hearing
is included in Appendix C
7.2.3. If any future changes to stormwater related ordinances are required, public
hearings will be advertised, held, and documented.
7.2.4. The City of Belmont has and will continue to provide a Storm Drain Labeling
Program for volunteer groups to participate in. The program has been successful
this permit cycle and is expected to be successful in the following permit cycle.
Evaluation of the program has and will continue to be based on the number of
storm drains successfully labeled by volunteer groups each fiscal year.
7.3. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination
7.3.1. BMP Summary Table (Appendix A)
1 7.3.2. Storm Sewer System Map: Several years ago, the City undertook to develop a
storm sewer system map in anticipation of the impending NPDES Phase 11
regulations. The field inspections were completed by summer interns and system
elements were approximately located on existing sanitary sewer and water main
maps. The information was transferred to a digital storm sewer map. These maps
have not been checked for accuracy, and it is anticipated that significant additions
and corrections will be made during the ongoing illicit discharge detection and
elimination program. As the MS4 is inspected, the existing maps will be updated
by hand with the information received. As significant information is obtained, the
mapping will be computer updated and published.
7.3.3. Regulatory Mechanism: The western portion of the City of Belmont, Phase II
Stormwater area, has been under the Gaston County Stormwater Ordinance since
CITY OF BELMONT 15 STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

• f

1 Permit Renewal -- January 2010
July 7th, 2007. The Gaston County Stormwater Ordinance includes a section on
Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination and has been enforced by Gaston
County officials. However, the eastern portion of the City of Belmont, Watershed
Water -Supply IV area, was not covered by the Gaston County Stormwater
Ordinance. On September 15th, 2009 the City of Belmont adopted a separate
Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Ordinance, which is enforceable by the
' City of Belmont and encompasses the entire jurisdictional area.
7.3.4. Enforcement: Compliance with the ordinance is monitored by the Stormwater
Coordinator and when official action must take place, the Code Enforcement
Officer has primary responsibility for issuing warnings, citations and fines as
supported by the City Attorney.
7.3.5. Detection and Elimination: The detection and elimination plan is contained in
the BMP summary table in Appendix A. The fallowing narrative describes the
steps that are followed in the identification and elimination of illicit discharges as
defined in the City's ordinance.
7.3.5.1. Development of Detailed Plan: Through consultation with the Public
Works Department staff, Gaston County Health Department, appropriate
State agencies, and City employees having occasion to observe potential
illicit discharge sites (i.e. police and fire departments), determine potential
"hot spots" in the stormwater collection system and establish priorities for
investigation. Areas with older sanitary sewer systems and individual septic
systems are considered as areas with higher potential as pollution sources.
The investigation will proceed on the following schedule:
Identify and investigate hot spots. Ongoing
Walk all system elements, note system elements for Ongoing
update of map, make visual observation of water
quality, investigate potential pollution sources, and
enact enforcement as necessary.
7.3.5.2. Source Tracing Procedures: It may be necessary to complete
limited ambient chemical sampling once a potential pollution source is
identified in the field. Testing may be conducted either by the Wastewater
Treatment Plant staff at their laboratory or by contract laboratory as
necessary.
