PART 1: INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP) is to establish and define the means by which
the Town of Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest 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 NCS000467, 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 Wake Forest and
located within the corporate limits of the Town of Wake Forest.
In preparing this SWMP, the Town of Wake Forest 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.

The Town -owned and maintained stormwater system collects drainage from 19.15 square miles, and
releases stormwater via 154 major outfalls (over 860 outfalls in total), ranging in size from 12"-13%6"
(elliptical). The Town has recently logged its entire stormwater system into a GIS database. Several
areas of new construction need to be incorporated. Routine upkeep of the database will be required
moving forward. The Town's GIS information can be viewed online at the following location:

3.8 Nan-Stormwater Discharges
The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Town of Wake
Forest as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do
not significantly impact water quality. The Town of Wake Forest does not evaluate residential and
charity car washing and street washing for possible significant water quality impacts. However,
educational materials are provided online regarding best practices for car washing.
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 Wake Forest.
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 Wake Forest to determine whether they may
significantly impact water quality. The Town has determined that these impacts may be significant and
has taken corrective actions to address these concerns.
Truck washing procedures have been updated at the Town -managed fire departments. Plans and
procedures are being developed to ensure that vehicle washing and training activities do not discharge
directly to the stormwater system. Additionally, educational material has been posted on the Town's
website to help educated residents and minimize the potential for detergents entering the stormwater
system. More information regarding the Town's education efforts is provided below.

3.9 Target Pollutants and Sources
In addition to those target pollutants identified above, the Town of Wake Forest is aware of other
significant water quality issues within the permitted MS4 area. These include sediment runoff from
active construction sites. Due to the significant amount of proposed development occurring within the
Town of Wake Forest, sediment is likely the number one pollutant. Our erosion and sediment control
program actively address this concern. Our construction inspectors regularly inspect active construction
sites to ensure compliance and administer enforcement.
Table 7 below summarizes the water quality pollutants identified throughout Part 3 of this SWMP, the
likely act ivities;'sources.'targeted audiences attributed to each pollutant and identifies the associated
SWMP program(s) that address each. In addition, the Town of Wake Forest has evaluated schools,
homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts.
Public outreach in schools brings opportunity for education and involvement among students and their
families. Similarly, outreach to the target audiences of businesses and homeowners increases awareness to
stormwater best management practices of target pollutants.
The Town of Wake Forest has evaluated our land use percentages to detennine the best approach for
target audiences. Currently 70% of our land use is residential, which leads us to believe targeting
homeowners and schools may have the biggest impact. An annual evaluation of our evolving land usage
will help us detennine where we should focus our stormwater education and outreach.

4.2 Program Funding and Budget
In accordance with the issued permit, the Town of Wake Forest 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 2020-2021 budget for the Town's stormwater department is $387,500. Of this budget, $62,500 is set
aside for maintenance, and $325,000 is allocated for new projects.:initiatives. The Town of Wake Forest
does not currently collect a Stormwater Fee from property owners, but is evaluating the potential for
initiating a stormwater fee. Through this process, the Town will evaluate funding needs and work with
Toren Council to re -allocate additional funding if needed.
Within the Town's 2020-2025 CIP, a project has been included for stormwater infrastructure and
easement management. Additional identified stormwater projects include repair of drainage issues at
Holding Park, Dam Repair at Flaherty Park, and a few stream bank repair projects associated with
greenway repair maintenance. These include the Sanford Creek Greenway and Richland Creek
Greenway. The Town's CIP is available to the general public online.
The stormwater program is overseen by 1 fully dedicated staff member (Monica Sarna), assistance from 1
other full-time staff member (Carrie Mitchell), as well as 4 full-time construction inspectors, and other
maintenance staff. Two additional full-time staff positions have been approved for the 2020-2021 budget
year and the Town is actively working to fill those positions. One of the positions will be dedicated to the
post -construction stormwater management, and the other to erosion control. Both positions will support
the overall program as needed.
The Town is aware of MS4 program requirements and has shown a willingness to support as needed.
Responsible positions have been made aware of permit obligations and actively coordinate with the
Stormwater Administrator to ensure those best management practices described in Tables 1 1-21 below
are being met.
4.3 Shared Responsibility
The Town of Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest 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.

The Town of Wake Forest will manage, implement and report the following public education and
outreach BMPs.
Involvement with the Clean Water Education Partnership (CWEP) has played a consistent role in the
Town's outreach and education process. This partnership influences the focus of the program regarding
target audiences and pollutants. CWEP has facilitated active collaboration between participating entities,
and tailors their outreach according to input from these entities.
Aside from educational events supported by CWEP, Wake Forest's stortnwater group will continue being
involved in Town events including Meet in the Street and Dirt Day. Educational material from the
Town's current repository, as well as material made available or referenced by CWEP will be available
for participants in each event.

PART 8: CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROL PROGRAM
In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153, the Town of Wake Forest relies upon the North Carolina
Sedimentation Pollution Control Act (SPCA) of 1973 as a 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.

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 Wake Forest 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 Wake Forest implements the following
State post -construction program requirements, which satisfy the NPDES Phase 11 MS4 post -construction
site runoff control requirements as Qualifying Alternative Programs (QAPs) in the MS4 area(s) where
they are implemented.

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