PART 1: INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) is to establish and define the means by which
the Town of Lewisville 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 Lewisville 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 NCS000494, 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 Lewisville and located
within the corporate limits of the Town of Lewisville.
In preparing this SWMP, the Town of Lewisville 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. Any major changes to the approved SWMP will require resubmittal,
review and approval by NCDEQ, and may require a new public comment period depending on the nature
of the changes.

3.2 Existing MS4 Mapping
The current MS4 mapping includes stormwater inflows, stormwater manholes, stormwater junction
boxes, culvert drain pipes, stormwater discharges, and settling basins. The MS4 area was mapped in 2012
and is being updated in 2020 to include previously unmapped areas. Stormwater inflows include
information on material, diameter/box size, depth, and ground cover. Culvert drain pipes include
information on diameter, box size, material, ground cover, and length. Stormwater discharges include
information on material, diameter/box size, ground cover, and receiving stream. The stormwater
discharges mapped include outfalls, but specific classification of major outfalls versus all other points of
discharge has not occurred.
A link to the public MS4 GIS map can be found here:

*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 Lewisville MS4 is located within the Yadkin-Pee Dee River Basin and discharges directly

regulated MS4 urbanized area based upon 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, the species listed in Table 4 have
the potential to occur within the regulated MS4 urbanized area. Of those species listed, Table 4
summarizes the species that may be significantly impacted by the quality of surface waters within their

3.8 Non-Stormwater Discharges
The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Town of Lewisville
as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do not
significantly impact water quality. The Town of Lewisville 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 Lewisville.
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 Lewisville to determine whether they may
significantly impact water quality.

3.9 Target Pollutants and Sources
In addition to those target pollutants identified above, the Town of Lewisville is not aware of other
significant water quality issues within the permitted MS4 area. However, the Town has identified other
pollutants it will address including litter, yard waste, pet waste, and sediment. These determinations have
been made due to citizen complaints, employee investigations, citizen complaints, County inspections,
and State water quality testing.
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 Lewisville has evaluated schools,
homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts.

4.2 Program Funding and Budget
In accordance with the issued permit, the Town of Lewisville 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.
Funding for the Stormwater Management Program comes predominantly from property taxes. The fiscal
year budget below demonstrates the allocation to Stormwater activities for 2019-2020, although salaries
for stormwater staff are funded through the Public Works department.
The fiscal analysis completed for 2017 showed a need to increase the stormwater funding which was
approved for each year since 2017. This led from a budget of $84,650 in 2017 to an increased budget of
$238,907 in 2020.

4.3 Shared Responsibility
The Town of Lewisville will share the responsibility to implement portions of the following minimum
control measures, which are at least as stringent as the corresponding NPDES MS4 Permit requirement.
The Town of Lewisville 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 Lewisville 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.

PART 8: CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROL PROGRAM
In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153, the Town of Lewisville relies upon the North Carolina
Sedimentation Pollution Control Act (SPCA) of 1973 as qualifying alternative program to meet a portion
of the NPDES MS4 Permit requirements for construction site runoff control measures. The SPCA
requirements include reducing pollutants in stormwater runoff from construction activities that result in
land disturbance of greater than or equal to one acre, and includes any construction activity that is part of
a larger common plan of development that would disturb one acre or more. The state SPCA Program is
either delegated to a city/town, delegated to a county, or implemented by NCDEQ in non-delegated areas.

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 Lewisville 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.
In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153 and .1017, the Town of Lewisville implements the following
State post-construction program requirements, which satisfy the NPDES Phase II MS4 post-construction
site runoff control requirements as Qualifying Alternative Programs (QAPs) in the MS4 area(s) where
they are implemented.
