PART 1: INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan(SWMP)is to establish and define the means by which
the Town of Laurel Park 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 Laurel Park 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 NCS000478, 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 Laurel Park and located
within the corporate limits of the Town of Laurel Park.
In preparing this SWMP,the Town of Laurel Park 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.

3.8 Non-Stormwater Discharges
The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Town of Laurel Park
as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do not
significantly impact water quality. The Town of Laurel Park 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 Laurel Park.
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 Laurel Park to determine whether they may
significantly impact water quality. The Town of Laurel Park will address the possibility of the below
mentioned water quality impacts through public education and good housekeeping, as outlined in Part 5,
BMP 3-7, and Part 10 BMP 45-47,49, 53, 54, 56, 57 and 61 with a focus on the training of good
housekeeping practices.

3.9 Target Pollutants and Sources
In addition to those target pollutants identified above,the Town of Laurel Park is not aware of other
significant water quality issues within the permitted MS4 area.
Table 7 below summarizes the water quality pollutants identified throughout Part 3 of this SWMP,the
likely activities/sources/targeted audiences attributed to each pollutant, and identifies the associated
SWMP program(s)that address each. In addition,the Town of Laurel Park has evaluated schools,
homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts.
Litter: Illegal dumping has occurred and been noted by code enforcement officers within the Town.
Cases of both illegal construction waste dumping and general residential or school dumping have been
noted by code enforcement officers. This litter poses a threat to both our water bodies and the MS4
infrastructure, as the litter can create clogs and backups that damage the pipelines leading back to the
stream. Some litter even poses a threat to groundwater if chemical leaching or breakdown of components
into heavy metals occurs due to weathering of the litter. The dumping has been found typically road side
but also in secluded urban areas.
Sediment: Previous installed erosion control measure have been removed or fallen
Sediment buildup is largely attributed to mismanaged construction sites with fallen or incorrectly installed
sediment fences. It has been noticed in both reports from citizens and by code enforcement officers that
there are several cases of construction sites not maintaining their erosion control fences during work. This
has led to sediment buildup near storm drains,onto down slope private properties,and in some cases
causing water to build up in nearby properties as the sediment is limiting the drains ability to remove
runoff. In all cases code enforcement has responded and had the issue solved,but even being down for a
short time can prove to have significant effects. Erosion control fences are required for sediment control
permits during construction by the DEQ throughout the entire construction process.

Gray Water: Residential,Charity, and Municipal Car Washes
Residential,charity,and municipal car washes allow for soaps or waxes to enter the storm drain when
vehicles are not being cleaned in the correct areas (such as vegetated patches or in areas that do not have
storm drains). This allows for toxic contaminants to enter our waterways via the storm drain system.
Fats Oils and Grease: Health Department has noted several cases where restaurants do not empty
or own/rent grease traps for appropriate removal.
The Health Department has reported several restaurants in Laurel Park not maintaining grease traps. This
has led to cases of the restaurants allowing the grease to drip onto nearby impermeable surface—which
would eventually lead to water quality issues. Overflow from a lack of maintenance or throwing out the
grease with general waste contributes to this problem. This is a health violation since the grease poses a
physical risk,but it also can impair water bodies with an influx of water insoluble grease going down the
storm drain.
Underground storage tanks: Storage devices installed below ground that contain hazardous
materials/waste.
These tanks can contain gasoline, fuels such as propane, industrial chemicals/oils,and most often human
waste in areas not directly connected to the sanitary sewer. Any underground storage tank must be well
maintained/monitored, and correctly installed due to the risk of them leaking. The leaks can cause
whatever chemical the tank is storing to leak into the ground,harming the soil, groundwater/water table,
and even surface waters as they are being fed from groundwater. If a fuel or industrial chemical tank is
leaking,the chemical will leach into the soil—leading to toxic soil,contaminated groundwater, and
possibly impairing a stream/water body. If a septic tank is leaking, it can overwhelm the natural processes
of the soil(infiltration)leading to nutrient overload in streams fed by groundwater,or allowing pathogens
to enter, increasing the risk of disease. The 10 303(d) fecal coliform impaired streams listed can have
some attribution to septic tank leakage.
Illicit discharges: Originate from a variety of sources,with an equally varied number of effects
dependent on the chemical that is released.
Typically, illicit discharges come from businesses,residents or municipal facilities who dump chemicals
into storm drains either incidentally due to a lack of IDDE education or general carelessness. These
chemicals can vary greatly, and can include grease, oils, chemicals, cleaning solutions,paints,metals, etc.
This is a recognized problem as we have several 303(d) streams impaired from causes related to
substances or attributions given to unclean discharges into the streams -in addition to reports generated
by the municipality. Many of the 303(d)benthos impaired streams can be attributed to IDDE issues,but
they are often from inexact/non-point sources that are attributed to illicit discharges
Illegal dumping: When residents,businesses, or municipal employees dump waste randomly in
non-permitted dumping areas.
This waste can widely vary,causing a variety of problems. For example,citizens dumping televisions on
the side of the road to avoid dumping fees,which allows for the metals or chemicals inside the tv to leach
out as stormwater passes it(mercury,lead, and other metals). It can be a case of businesses dumping
DRAFT NCS000478 SWMP
Town of Laurel Park
December 2,2019
Page 10
waste in watershed areas where runoff passes through the waste, either carrying it,or residuals of the
waste into water bodies. It can also be a case of graders dumping sediment into areas without the correct
allowances/precautions. The debris and chemicals accumulate over time and lead to chemical
impairments,pH issues,turbidity impairments,or debris entering the stream/MS4 system.
Improper disposal of waste:
Improper disposal of waste is problematic because it allows chemicals,or difficult to manage waste,to
enter the environment in ways that may be hard to track. For example;not giving a car battery to the
correct waste management facility can allow for battery acid and lead to enter the soil which
drains/collects in the groundwater. This problem has been noticed by municipal waste managers and is
difficult to track as often the improper disposal waste is mixed in with the standard refuse. Other
examples include grease going down sinks clogging MS4 systems,chemicals from batteries leaching into
the groundwater,oil from oil changes not going to the correct facility, etc.

4.2 Program Funding and Budget
In accordance with the issued permit,the Town of Laurel Park 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 town provides $6,000.00 in direct funds for the operation of not capital stormwater projects.
Additionally there is another approximately$50,000.00 annually for capital projects related to stormwater
and stormwater drainage.
Any fees charged to the development community for BMP Inspections,Plan Review, and other associated
fees will help offset cost. The Town may determine that stormwater utility fees should be implemented;
these fees would be collected by the Town through tax or utility bills. The goal would be for the funds
collected to support the stormwater program through mapping outfalls, stream repairs, and other water
quality efforts.
4.3 Shared Responsibility
The Town of Laurel Park 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 Laurel Park 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 Laurel Park 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 9: POST-CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROL PROGRAM
This SWMP identifies the minimum elements to develop, implement and enforce a program to address
stormwater runoff from new development and redevelopment projects that disturb greater than or equal to
one acre, including projects less than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of development or
sale,that are located within the Town of Laurel Park and discharge into the MS4. These elements are
designed to minimize water quality impacts utilizing a combination of structural Stormwater Control
Measures (SCMs)and/or non-structural BMPs appropriate for the community, and ensure adequate long-
term operation and maintenance of SCMs. All Post-Construction management is done through an
agreement with Henderson County.
In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153 and.1017,the Town of Laurel Park implements the following
State post-construction program requirements,which satisfy the NPDES Phase 11 MS4 post-construction

PART 10: POLLUTION PREVENTION AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAMS
This SWMP provides a comprehensive pollution prevention and good housekeeping strategy for the
Town of Laurel Park 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 park 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 Cleaning Program
7. Pavement Management Program
The Town of Laurel Park will manage, implement and report the pollution prevention and good
housekeeping BMPs as specified in Table 21 below for each required program.
