She reviewed the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) which was missing several components and was not being actively implemented except for the required semi-annual Qualitative Monitoring. The following are the components not included and not being implemented in the SPPP: A detailed site map, including"outfall locations and drainage areas, a list of significant spills or the notation that no significant spills have occurred during the past 3 years, a Best Management Practices summary, an evaluation of possible alternatives to current practices, a Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Plan with a documented Stormwater Facility Inspection Program,annual documentation of Employee training, providing information about the updated Responsible Party, an annual review of the SPPP, providing updates as needed and annually evaluating if there have been nonstormwater discharges from the ouffalls. Old records may be discarded after 3 years. General Permit NCG07000 may be referred to for guidance with the components which need to be added to the SPPP and the activities which need to be fully implemented and recorded in the SPPP. The facility grounds were reviewed which appeared orderly. Some erosion was observed on the south and southeast sides of the property but no off -site impacts were noted.
