PART 1: INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan and Nutrient Management Strategy (SWMP-
NMS) is to establish and define the means by which the Town of Wendell will comply with its
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer
System (MS4) Permit, the requirements of the Neuse Nutrient Stormwater Rule (15A NCAC 02B
.0711), 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-NMS identifies the specific elements and Six Minimum Measures that the Town of
Wendell will develop, implement, enforce, evaluate, and report to the North Carolina Department
of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Division of Energy, Minerals and Land Resources (DEMLR) to
comply with the MS4 Permit number NCS000564, as issued by NCDEQ. This SWMP-NMS also
identifies specific elements and Minimum Measures that the Town of Wendell will develop,
implement, enforce, evaluate, and report to the NCDEQ Division of Water Resources (DWR) to
comply with the requirements of the Neuse Nutrient Stormwater Rule. This permit covers
activities associated with the discharge of stormwater and nutrients from the MS4 as owned and
operated by the Town of Wendell and located within the corporate limits of the Town of Wendell.
The Neuse Nutrient Stormwater Rule elements will also be applied in the Town's ETJ.
In preparing this SWMP-NMS, the Town of Wendell has evaluated its MS4 and the permit
requirements to develop a comprehensive 5-year SWMP-NMS that will meet the community's
needs, address local water quality issues, and meet or exceed the requirements of the Six Minimum
Measures necessary to comply with the MS4 permit, and the Neuse Nutrient Stormwater Rule.
The SWMP-NMS will be evaluated and updated annually or as needed to meet or exceed the
requirements of the MS4 permit and Neuse Nutrient Stormwater Rule compliance and the
community's needs.
Once the SWMP-NMS is approved by NCDEQ and the Environmental Management Commission
(EMC), all provisions contained and referenced in this SWMP-NMS, along with any approved
modifications of the SWMP-NMS, are incorporated by reference into the permit and become
enforceable parts of the permit. Any major changes to the approved SWMP-NMS will require
resubmittal, review, and approval by NCDEQ, and may require a new public comment period
depending on the nature of the changes.

*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 Wendell MS4 is located within the Neuse River Basin 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 Waterbodv Classification Map
o Impaired Waters and TMDL Mau

Buffalo Creek is listed with benthos as a 303(d) List parameter of concern, which indicates that
the benthic community has a fair, poor, or severe bioclassification. The ability of the stream to
support a diverse community of benthic organisms is related to the overall health of the stream.
3.4 MS4 Interconnection
The Town of Wendell MS4 is interconnected with another regulated MS4 and directly receives
and/or discharges stormwater from the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT)
MS4. These connections include:
a. The interconnection is receiving stormwater from the NCDOT MS4. The number of
interconnections is unknown.
b. The interconnection is discharging stormwater into the NCDOT MS4. The number of
interconnections is unknown.
c. The Town of Wendell MS4 mapping does not identify interconnections with the
NCDOT MS4.
d. The Town of Wendell MS4 mapping does not include NCDOT MS4 outfalls.
The number of interconnections entering and leaving the Town of Wendell MS4 from NCDOT will
be established through BMP 15, as determined by GIS analysis of outfalls on DOT roads.
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.

The entirety of the Town of Wendell and its ETJ is located within the Neuse River Watershed,
which is impaired for nitrogen and subject to a total maximum daily load (TMDL). A statewide
TMDL for mercury applies to all surface waters in the state but does not require any actions by
the Town as most mercury in stormwater comes from atmospheric deposition. While the
Statewide TMDL for mercury does not require any actions by the NPDES stormwater permittee
because most mercury in stormwater comes from atmospheric deposition, the Town utilizes BMPs
to provide information to the public.

3.7 Industrial Facility Discharges
The Town of Wendell MS4 jurisdictional area includes the following industrial facilities which hold
NPDES Industrial Stormwater Permits, as determined from the NCDEQ Maps & Permit Data web
page. Facilities were identified by location address, but all industrial sites were not mapped to
determine which sites are in the ETJ.
The Town prioritizes industrial sites for inspections as part of the Illicit Discharge Detection and
Elimination Program.

3.8 Non-Stormwater Discharges
The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Town of
Wendell as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as
incidental do not significantly impact water quality. The Town of Wendell has evaluated residential
and charity car washing and street washing for possible significant water quality impacts. The
Division has not required that other non-stormwater flows be specifically controlled by the Town
of Wendell.
Street washing discharges are addressed under the Pavement Management Program in Part 10 of
this SWMP-NMS. The Town of Wendell recognizes street washing with a sustained flow of water
will have a negative impact to the MS4, and therefore utilizes dry sweeping methods wherever
possible. The Town of Wendell utilizes street sweepers with metal brushes which do utilize spayed
water to reduce the possibility of fugitive dust and to assist in collection of material. Street
sweeping waste is disposed of in a commercial waste dumpster at the Public Works Yard per the
Municipal Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping Plan.
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 Wendell 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.

3.9 Target Pollutants and Sources
In addition to those target pollutants identified above, the Town of Wendell is not aware of other
significant water quality issues within the permitted MS4 area.
Table 7 below summarizes the water quality pollutants identified throughout Part 3 of this SWMP-
NMS, the likely activities/sources/targeted audiences attributed to each pollutant and identifies
the associated SWMP-NMS programs that address each. In addition, the Town of Wendell has
evaluated schools, homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have
significant stormwater impacts. The audiences are targeted for Public Education and Outreach as
they are likely pollutant sources.

PART 8: CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROL PROGRAM
In accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .0153, the Town of Wendell 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. 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-NMS 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 Wendell 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 Wendell 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.

will be amended with newly
(Neuse NMS)
adopted rules
The post -construction program including the NSW Rules apply throughout the Town limits and its
ETJ. As part of the ordinance update, Wendell has determined to track built -upon area (BUA) for
projects by recording permitted and maximum allowed BUA on the plat. For residential
developments, BUA additions can then be processed through an application with the Building
Department. Residential, single lot developments without a plat will need to provide
documentation of BUA limits prior to initial building permit issuance. BUA additions for these
projects will then be processed through an application with the Building Department. Additions
for non-residential development will be routed through the Planning Department for updates to
the stormwater management plan. A BUA policy document will be drafted as part of BMP 30.
Wake County performs post -construction plan reviews under the ILA from project initiation to as -
built inspections. Requirements for post -construction reviews performed by Wake County are
found on the County website: https://www.wakegov.com/departments-government/water-
quality-programs/watershed-management-erosion-sedimentation-control-floodplain-and-
stormwater-management/stormwater-plan-review-and-permitting/town-wendell-submittal-
requirements
NCS000564 NMS-SWMP
Town of Wendell
June 2022
Page 36
As part of the as -built process, plat and deed recordations are required. Wake County reviews
these during the site plan process and the final recordations are verified by the Town as part of
the project close-out process. If the project is platted prior to as -built acceptance, a performance
security is required.
The Town of Wendell has existing requirements other than Qualifying Alternative Program(s) for
implementation of the NPDES Phase II MS4 post -construction program requirements. These
existing requirements are codified in local ordinance(s), and implementation is further defined in
guidance, manuals and/or standard operating procedure(s) as summarized in Table 19 below.

PART 10: POLLUTION PREVENTION AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAMS
This SWMP-NMS provides a comprehensive pollution prevention and good housekeeping
strategy for the Town of Wendell 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 Wendell will manage, implement, and report the pollution prevention and good
housekeeping BMPs as specified in Table 21 below for each required program.
