No Comments:Not a complete inventory. The Town does now have such an inventory for one of our critical areas in Town with previous reports of runoff problems. (a study of higgins creek, and a limited analysis of the Hoopers Valley Estate areas). Also, stormwater outfalls have been mapped. As of the start of FY 2019/20, the TOwn has budgeted new funds to improve upon our overall stormwater program. In the next 2-3 years, we will have additional mapping done in phases for different sections of town. (And we will also be updating our outfall inventory). 3Page Number: SW100220 Do you know how many outfalls your city discharges to and where they are located? Yes SW100260 EXISTING LOCAL WATER QUALITY PROGRAMS SW100270 "Complete a table below for each river basin within the MS4 service area. The web sites and resource contacts listed below under Information Sources will help you locate the information you need. Storm water programs should be designed to address the specific needs of the community and water resources they are intended to protect. If you haven't done so already, collect information on your city's receiving waters and what pollutants and sources are impacting those waters. You should also know the various uses of your receiving waters so you can design a program to protect those uses. Complete a table below for each river basin within the MS4 service area.

I later confirmed with Natalie Berry (henderson County). To my knowledge, Shawna Riddle from DENR (DEQ?) is our regional rep on this. I may need more clarification on this in the future to see if there is more expected of the Town on this item. Henderson County still does our grading/soil and erosion control permitting for new development in town. SW104210 If the permittee relies on the NCDENR Division of Land Resources (DLR) Erosion and Sediment Control Program to comply with this minimum measure for private development, than the NCDENR Division of Land Resources Erosion and Sediment Control Program effectively meets the requirements of the Construction Site Runoff Controls by permitting and controlling development activities disturbing one or more acres of land surface and those activities less than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of development. SW104220 Does the permittee rely on rely on a locally delegated program to meet the minimum measure for private development requirements? (If no, go to SW104300) No Root Cause :Best Management Practice is not established Plan of Action:I was made aware recently that the State handles construction site runoff controls.

SW104310 Does the Stormwater Management Program summarize what best management practices 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? 26Page Number: SW104320 Does the Stormwater Management Program describe the mechanism (ordinance or other regulatory mechanism) the permittee will use to require erosion and sediment controls at construction sites and why the permittee chose that mechanism? SW104330 If permittee needs to develop this mechanism, the permittee's plan should describe the plan and a schedule to do so. SW104340 Does the Permittee conduct site plan review(s), including the review of pre-construction site plans, which incorporate consideration of potential water quality impacts? SW104350 The Stormwater Management Program must describe procedures and the rationale for how permittee will identify certain sites for site plan review, if not all plans are reviewed and describe the estimated number and percentage of sites that will have pre-construction site plans reviewed. SW104360 Does the Stormwater Management Program describe the permittee's plan to ensure compliance with the permittee's erosion and sediment control regulatory mechanism, including the sanctions and enforcement mechanisms permittee will use to ensure compliance?

SW104380 Does the Stormwater Management Program describe the permittee's procedures for site inspection and enforcement of control measures, including how the permittee will prioritize sites for inspection? SW104430 Does the Stormwater Management Program require construction site operators to implement erosion and sediment control BMPs and to control construction site wastes that may cause adverse water quality impacts? SW104440 Does the Stormwater Management Program require construction site operators to control waste such as discarded building materials, concrete truck washout, chemicals, litter, and sanitary waste at the construction site that may cause adverse impacts to water quality? SW104450 Does the permittee provide and promote a means for the public to notify the appropriate authorities of observed erosion and sedimentation problems? Yes Comments:In the past, if we received complaints on this I would forward them to Henderson County (ie. runoff from construction sites). I need to determine if these get forwarded to the state. I do believe that Henderson County forwarded issues to the state as appropriate. Our website references our phone number which individuals may call to report issues. And if I receive a call I would pass on to county or state as appropriate. SW104460 Consider coordinating this requirement with the permittee's public education program. Publicize the procedures and contact information. The procedures must lead directly to a site inspection or other timely follow-up action.

Yes SW104910 Does the Stormwater Management Program describe how the permittee will develop an ordinance or other regulatory mechanism to implement and enforce a program to address post construction runoff from new development and redevelopment projects? Yes Comments:Henderson County is the delegated agency for permitting/review/inspections for this min measure SW104920 The permittee's ordinances, and subsequent modifications, will be reviewed and approved by DWQ prior to implementation. The approval process will establish subsequent timeframes when DWQ will review performance under the ordinance(s). The reviews will occur, at a minimum, every five years. Regulated public entities without ordinance making powers must demonstrate similar actions taken in their post construction stormwater management program to meet the minimum measure requirements. SW104930 Does the Stormwater Management Program describe how the permittee will ensure the long-term operation and maintenance (O&M) of BMPs?
