This SWMP identifies the specific elements and minimum measures that the Town of Hope Mills 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 NCS000458,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 Hope Mills and located within the corporate limits of the Town of Hope Mills. In preparing this SWMP, the Town of Hope Mills 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.

It serves mainly to provide roadway drainage. Sheet flow and open ditches with culverts at crossings are common in the older residential portions of the Town, while curb and gutter are more common in the commercial areas and newer residential subdivisions. The Natural Resource Conservation Service describes the predominant soils as excessively to well drained. There are many locations in the MS4 service area where infiltration is predominant and consequently many areas from which there is no surface water discharge to mapped receiving streams. The Town is currently under contract with a consultant to provide online mapping through ESRI that will be accessible to the public and assist in outfall mapping. The entire system is updated annually but not available online. Table l: Summary of Current MS4 Mapping Percent of MS4 Area Mapped 100 % No. of Major Outfalls* Mapped 56 total *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 MS4name MS4 is located within the Cape Fear 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 Waterbody Classification Map o Impaired Waters and TMDL Map o Most recent NCDEQ Final 303 d List Table 2: Summary of MS4 Receiving Waters NCS000458 SWMP Town of Hope Mills, NC 10:1;`2024 Page 4 Receiving Water Name Stream Index/ Water 303(d) Listed Parameter(s) AU Number Quality of Interest Classification Rockfish Creek 18-31- 18 B N/A Unnamed Tributary to Rockfish 18-31-22-(1) B Creek near Hope Mills Permastone Lake Rockfish Creek 18-31- 23 C N/A Little Rockfish Creek 18-31-24- 4 C N/A Beaver Creek 18-31-24-5 C N/A Little Rockfish Creek - Hope 18-31-24-(6.5) B N/A Mills Lake Lake Bed#4 Little Rockfish Creek 18-31-24-7 B N/A 3.4 MS4 Interconnection The Town of Hope Mills MS4 is not interconnected with another regulated MS4 and directly discharges to the receiving waters as listed in Table 2 above. The MS4 does interconnect with the statewide NCDOT MS4 and includes: a. The interconnection is receiving stormwater from the NCDOT MS4. The number of interconnections is unknown. Quantity: NIA b. The interconnection is discharging stormwater into the NCDOT MS4. The number of interconnections is unknown. Quantity: N;"A c. The Town of Hope Mills MS4 mapping does identify interconnections with the NCDOT MS4. All public, private and State maintained infrastructure is mapped in ArcGis. d. The Town of Hope Mills MS4 mapping does include NCDOT MS4 outfalls, if they are located in the jurisdictional mapping boundaries. 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 Town of Hope Mills does not currently have any TMDL's for the waterways located inside Town of Hope Mills jurisdiction or the watershed directly receiving discharges.

The unpermitted non-stormwater flows listed as incidental do not significantly impact water quality. The Town of Hope Mills 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 Hope Mills 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 Hope Mills to determine whether they may significantly impact water quality. The Town of Hope Mills has found there are no significant impact to water quality but we continue to educate the public, specifically if permits are obtained for charity car washes, we see residents washing on impervious areas and we have a Commercial flyer that addresses wash water that are distribute to business owners.

These include vehicle maintenance, residential/commercial landscaping and lawn care,pet waste, sediment and litterlillegal dumping. Based upon citizen complaint and windshield inspections by staff, the target pollutants are address through direct mails, signage in parks, local events and the Town's website. The Town partners with CWEP to provide television, radio and movie theater advertisements, they also have annual updates to the target pollutants that have covered the Town of Hope Mills target pollutants over the last 4 years. Vehicle maintenance is addressed to the homeowner directly through citizen engagement and education. Residential and commercial landscaping is addressed through advertisement, brochures,public events and directly when found. Pet waste doesn't have a significant impact at a residential level but has been noticeable in the parks owned by the Town of Hope Mills. Staff installed signage in two parks this past year and maintains pet waste stations for cleanup. The Town of Hope Mills also has a dog park which in inclusive and staff maintains daily what doesn't get cleaned up by the pet owners. Sediment is contained to construction areas and this is regulated by DEMLR,as the Town of Hope Mills is not delegated Erosion Control authority. Litter is mostly found on the NCDOT roadways but Town Staff cleans these weekly along with all major Town streets. Illegal dumping is addressed through IDDE and Town Code Enforcement. Table 7 below summarizes the water quality pollutants identified throughout Part 3 of this SWMP, the likely activities/sourcesitargeted audiences attributed to each pollutant, and identifies the associated SWMP program(s) that address each. In addition, the Town of Hope Mills has evaluated schools, homeowners and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts.
