I) Brief description of facility activities that occur on -site:
WSTA is used as for performing of maintenance on city buses and storing bus parts. WSTA a
parking lot for all fleet busses parking. Lastly, WSTA has large wash bay for the washing of vehicles.
I) Ultimate Receiving Waters: Peters Creek
TMDL stream Yes ®No If Yes, What Pollutants:
Part 1 - Stormwater Controls
1. Best Management Practices (BMPs)
E.g. Oil Water separators, cleaning schedules, structural BMP maintenance records
1. Oil -water separator used for all drains inside of maintenance and washing facility.
2. Monthly facility inspections
3. Oil absorbent kept at catch basins near fueling areas, replaced as needed.

b. Are the non-structural BMPs reasonable & appropriate for the facility? ❑X Yes No
Consistent oils leaks in the parking lot area for the Buses.
c. Are stormwater control measures (SCMs) installed correctly, maintained, and effective operating condition?
❑Yes No ❑X N/A
2. Provide a brief description of other controls that manage/prevent/minimize stormwater runoff
(e.g., erosion and sediment controls, inlet protection/control at storm drains, diversion structures):
Oil absorbent pillows are kept at the catch basins that could be subject to fuel spills, but they
have busted open and they have not been replaced in very long time.
Part 2 — Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDOs)
1. Any evidence of discharge to receiving waters/MS4 from the SDOs? (e.g.: stormwater runoff, dry weather
discharge, co -mingling of process wastewater, trash, debris, oil and grease): Yes ®No
Comments
2) Do the stormwater outfalls on -site correspond with those listed on the site map in the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SWPPP)? ®Yes No
The stormwater outfall has old pillow absorbents in front of it while other storm drains
have debris and other materials in front of them.

x
Narrative Description of these Industrial/Operational Activities:
Storage Practices
x
Unloading/Loading Activities
x
Outdoor Processes
x
Particulate Generating/Control Processes
x
Waste Disposal
x
Vehicle/Equipment Washing
x
Does site map denote drainage items: flow direction, boundaries,
x
% impervious, and structures? Does the map also include SDOs,
industrial activity areas, and site topography?

x
with corrective actions to prevent futurespills)?

x
non-stormwater discharges from the site?
Comments:
The Central Bus Station facility is a satellite operation and has the ability of site to
generate pollutants such as fuel, hydrocarbon spills, trash & debris, etc. This is due to
buses going in and out all day. Please create a mini SWPPP and add this to the SWPPP
of WSTA.
When the buses of WSTA have leaks onto streets in public, a plan needs to be put into
place how the issue will be resolved and how the issue will be monitored until the repair
or plan is permanent. Please create, devise, and implement a plan that will serve as the
guide on preventing and managing fluid leaks on and off site of WSTA.
