This SWMP identifies the specific elements and minimum measures that the Town of Kernersville 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 NCS000483, 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 Kernersville and located within the corporate limits of the Town of Kernersville. In preparing this SWMP, the Town of Kernersville 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.

Draft NCS000483 SWMP Town of Kernersville February 24, 2021 Page 3 PART 3: MS4 INFORMATION 3.1 Permitted MS4 Area This SWMP applies throughout the corporate limits of the Town of Kernersville, including all regulated activities associated with the discharge of stormwater from the MS4. The map below shows the corporate limits of Town of Kernersville as of the date of this document. Draft NCS000483 SWMP Town of Kernersville February 24, 2021 Page 4 3.2 Existing MS4 Mapping The current MS4 mapping includes drainage basins, town-owned property, municipal good housekeeping areas, major outfalls, outfall and buffer inspection locations, flow direction, and pipe conditions. Table 1: Summary of MS4 Mapping Percent of MS4 Area Mapped 95 % No. of Major Outfalls* Mapped 400 total *An outfall is a point where the MS4 discharges from a pipe or other conveyance (e.g. a ditch) directly into surface waters. Major outfalls are required to be mapped to meet permit requirements. A major outfall is a 36-inch diameter pipe or discharge from a drainage area > 50-acres; and for industrial zoned areas a 12-inch diameter pipe or a drainage area > 2-acres. 3.3 Receiving Waters The Town of Kernersville MS4 is located within the Cape Fear, Roanoke, and Yadkin Pee Dee River Basins and discharges directly into receiving waters as listed in Table 2 below. Applicable water quality standards listed below are compiled from the following NCDEQ sources: o Waterbody Classification Map o Impaired Waters and TMDL Map o Most recent NCDEQ Final 303(d) List Table 2: Summary of MS4 Receiving Waters Receiving Water Name Stream Index / AU Number Water Quality Classification 303(d) Listed Parameter(s) of Interest Cape Fear River Basin Reedy Fork Creek From source to ETJ [16-11-1(a)] WS-III, NSW Benthos (Nar, AL, FW) Fish Community (Nar, AL, FW) Beaver Creek From source to ETJ [16-11-2]WS-III, NSW West Fork Deep River From source to ETJ [17-3-(0.3)] WS-IV Benthos (Nar, AL, FW) Fish Community (Nar, AL, FW) Draft NCS000483 SWMP Town of Kernersville February 24, 2021 Page 5 Receiving Water Name Stream Index / AU Number Water Quality Classification 303(d) Listed Parameter(s) of Interest Roanoke River Basin Belews Creek From source to a point 0.5 mile upstream of backwaters of Kernersville Lake [22- 27-(1)] WS-IV Belews Creek From a point 0.5 mile upstream of backwaters of Kernersville Lake to Town Limits/ETJ [22-27-(1.5), 22-27-(2)] WS-IV-CA Right Fork Belews Creek (Deans Creek) From source to Town Limits/ETJ [22-27-3] C East Belews Creek From source to Town Limits/ETJ [22-27- 8-(1)], From backwaters of Belews Lake (Forsyth County SR 2140) to Southern Railroad Bridge [22-27-8-(2)] B/C Hartley Creek From source to Belews Creek [22-27-4] C Yadkin Pee Dee River Basin Kerners Mill Creek From source to 0.1 mile downstream of Bus.

The number of interconnections entering the Kernersville MS4 from NCDOT MS4 is 30, as determined using the Town of Kernersville Stormwater GIS inventory, which includes direction of flow for all pipes. Each NCDOT road in Town limits (about 60 miles) was initially traced on paper maps to see where all stormwater discharges and the results were added to the Towns GIS inventory. The Stormwater Monitoring Technician will update the NCDOT/TOK Pipe Interconnection layer during routine infrastructure layer updates and when plans for new development are approved and digitized into the system. The Town does not inspect NCDOT outfalls. The Town of Kernersville borders the City of High Point and the City of Winston-Salem, but does not share any structures or discharge past the Town limits and ETJ. Draft NCS000483 SWMP Town of Kernersville February 24, 2021 Page 6 3.5 Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) The TMDL(s) listed in Table 3 below have been approved within the MS4 area, as determined by the map and list provided on the NCDEQ Modeling & Assessment Unit web page. The table also indicates whether the approved TMDL has a specific stormwater Waste Load Allocation (WLA) for any watershed directly receiving discharges from the permitted MS4, and whether a Water Quality Recovery Program has been implemented to address the WLA. Table 3: Summary of Approved TMDLs Water Body Name TMDL Pollutant(s) of Concern Stormwater Waste Load Allocation (Y/N) Water Quality Recovery Program (Y/N) Statewide Mercury N N No TMDLs have been approved within the MS4 area. The Statewide TMDL for mercury does not require any actions by the NPDES stormwater permittee because most mercury in stormwater comes from atmospheric deposition. 3.6 Endangered and Threatened Species and Critical Habitat Significant populations of threatened or endangered species and/or critical habitat may be identified within the regulated MS4 urbanized area, as determined by a review of the Endangered and Threatened Species and Species of Concern by County for North Carolina Map and Listed species believe to or known to occur in North Carolina map as provided by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Of those species listed, Table 4 summarizes the species that may be significantly impacted by the quality of surface waters within their habitat.

The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do not significantly impact water quality. The Town of Kernersville has evaluated residential and charity car washing and street washing for possible significant water quality impacts. 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 Kernersville to determine whether they may significantly impact water quality. The Town utilizes Public Education and Outreach and Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping BMPs to educate residents and municipal staff on the possible effects of detergents entering the surface waters. 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 Kernersville.

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 Kernersville has evaluated schools, homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts.

An asset inventory of capital infrastructure is currently underway, but is anticipated to take at least two years. 4.3 Shared Responsibility The Town of Kernersville 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 Kernersville 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 Kernersville 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 place.
