1. STORM SEWER SYSTEM INFORMATION:
1.1 Population Served:
12,993 (North Carolina Office of State Management and Budget - 2008)
Seasonal information is not available
1.2 Growth Rate:
1990 Census = 7,284
2000 Census = 101420
10 year growth rate = 43% Annual average growth rate = 4.3%
1.3 Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas
Jurisdictional Area Total: 14.47 square miles
MS4 Service Area: 14.47 square miles
1.4 MS4 Conveyance System
The City of Hendersonville's stormwater system is a combination of curb
and gutter systems, various sizes and types of pipes and open drainage
ways or ditches on local, State and private roads. The City maintains City
roads, curb and gutter systems, and stormwater pipes within the City
Limits. Some of these tie in to drainage systems on State roads, but most
of the City storm water system drains into receiving streams.
The State DOT maintains systems along the State Roads such as US 25,
US 64, NC 191 and NC 176 as well as a number of other streets and roads
within the City. Reference is made to the current Powell Bill map for their
names and locations.
There are private drives and small roadways, both paved and unpaved,
that connect to City and State roads and are maintained by owners. Most
of these utilize open ditches for stormwater control.
City maintenance includes leaf and garbage pickup, yard waste and brush
removal, street sweeping, and storm -drain clearing. Public Works staff
will respond to complaints on storm drains and clean out pipes and drains
as needed with shovels, rakes, or other machinery. Hendersonville's
Public Works Department currently maintains 40 full time employees.

Henderson County provides Emergency (911), Environmental Health, and
Erosion Control Division services to Hendersonville as part of county
services. The NCDOT Division Office services are made available by the
State without formal agreements with the City. NCDOT Division 14 road
maintenance services are not technically part of the City's MS4 program, but
are listed because the City has facilities whose stormwater run-off drains
into the state road system.
Page 17 of 36

7. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
The City must implement and enforce a stormwater management program (SWMP)
designed to reduce the discharge of pollutants from its small MS4 to the maximum
extent practicable (MEP), to protect water quality, and to satisfy the appropriate
water quality requirements of the Clean Water Act.
7.1 Public Education and Outreach on Storm Water Impacts
The City will implement a public education program to distribute educational
materials to the community and conduct outreach activities to educate the
public on the impacts of stormwater discharges to water bodies.
Educational efforts will include steps the public can take to reduce pollutants
in stormwater run-off.
Target Pollutant Sources:
• Sediment and erosion because of the likelihood of future
development projects
• Automotive pollutants from roads and parking lots due to impervious
area within the City's urban area
• Household and yard waste because of the relatively high ratio of
residential to commercial/industrial properties in the City
• Fertilizers and pesticides because of the agricultural areas draining to
waters within the City
• Fecal bacteria due to the remaining unsewered areas, mainly outside
the City limits but with its jurisdictional area
Target Audience:
• Schools and colleges whose students can learn the dangers of
negative water quality impacts at an early age, which could affect
their future practices
• Local businesses and industries whose work practices could
contribute to pollution of water and/or waste of water resources
• Builders, developers, and contractors whose work practices can
increase sediment and erosion
• Homeowners/condominium associations, landscaping companies, and
landowners whose lawn and landscape practices can negatively
impact stormwater quality
Page 18 of 36

Outreach Program:
• The City will continue to explore the feasibility of regional approaches
to the development and distribution of public educational materials
and/or utilizing any statewide education or outreach programs, and
continue to develop a public materials distribution plan.
Informational materials will be made available at City Hall, the City
Operations Center, and on the City website.
• The City will continue to work with local resources including the Land -
of -Sky Regional Council, the North Carolina Cooperative Extension
and other local agencies and organizations to develop local training
and educational materials for the public, landscapers, developers,
schools, and other target audiences. The materials will include topics
such as Phase II Requirements, Parks and Recreation Maintenance,
Low -Impact Design, Watershed Planning and Protection, or Habitat
and Stream Restoration. Training activities will be ongoing.
• The City will modify construction standards to require stormwater
educational language that is cast into the covers on all catch basins
within the City's jurisdiction.
• The City has recently constructed two (2) streambank restoration
projects, one along Wash Creek and the other along Britton Creek.
The City will continue to construct streambank restoration projects as
funding allows and use these projects to educate the public on the
proper ways to maintain a riparian stream buffer and improve water
quality.
• Develop a Parks and Greenway Master Plan in order to incorporate
additional community greenspace and educational opportunities. This
initiative will be directed by and the responsibility of the City Planner.
• Continue to revise and improve the City's website by providing
additional educational materials on stormwater impacts, water
quality, and pollution reduction.

Page 20 of 36

7.2 Public Involvement and Participation
The City will implement a Public Involvement and Participation program to
provide opportunities for the public, including major economic and ethnic
groups, to participate in program development and implementation. The
City of Hendersonville will meet these requirements by doing the following:
• Continue to seek input and provide updates on Phase II requirements
and implementation to City Council and the City Planning Board as
part of regularly scheduled public meetings. Include least one (1)
annual public meeting with stormwater related issues as an agenda
item.
• Continue to arrange local scout troops and others to place
educational vinyl placards on existing City stormwater catch basins
and curb inlets to inform the public that the storm drains are not for
waste disposal. Stencils have already been placed on many
structures and this action will be ongoing.
• Promote a local "Adopt -a -Stream", "Ado pt-a -Creek", and "Adopt -a -
Drain" programs in coordination with RiverLink, Henderson County
Environmental Conservation Organization (ECO), scout troops, or
other local resources. This will provide opportunities for the public to
participate in implementation of the stormwater program.
• Promote Annual "Big Sweep" Events to clean up the local streams.

7.3 Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination
The City will implement and enforce a program to detect and eliminate illicit
discharges within the MS4.
Storm Sewer System Map:
The City's GIS Coordinator will develop a map of the storm system
including outfalls, drainage areas, and receiving streams using City of
Hendersonville, Henderson County, State of North Carolina, and USGS
GIS data, as well as GPS technology. The map will be improved over
time to include illicit discharges and updated stormwater
management BMPs.
Regulatory Mechanism:
The City adopted illicit discharge violation and fine provisions as part
of its NPDES Phase II Stormwater Ordinance.
Enforcement:
The City's NPDES Phase II Stormwater Ordinance contains
enforcement procedures including notification of illicit discharge
violators and fines for guilty parties.
Detection and Elimination:
A desktop assessment of illicit discharge potential will be completed
to determine the potential severity of illicit discharges within the City
and identify which subwatersheds require priority investigation. The
desktop assessment will consist of:
• Delineating subwatersheds or other drainage units
• Compiling available mapping and data for each drainage unit
• Using GIS analysis to derive illicit discharge potential screening
factors
• Screening and ranking the subwatershed illicit discharge
potential
• Generating maps to support field investigations
Page 23 of 36

The screening factors from the GIS data will include density of
industrial sites, density of aging septic systems, age of subwatershed
development, and older sewer infrastructure.
Once the desktop assessment has been completed, maps of priority
areas will be generated and field screening will be performed utilizing
an Outfall Reconnaissance Inventory (ORI). The ORI will consist of
stream walks to inventory and measure storm drain outfalls, and find
and correct continuous and intermittent discharges.
If an illicit discharge is discovered during field screening, the
investigation will begin at the outfall. The field crew will work
progressively up the trunk from the outfall to isolate the illicit
discharge source. Investigative methods will include visual inspection
at storm manholes, catch basins, and/or curb inlets; smoke and dye
testing; and possibly video testing.
Methods used to eliminate any discovered illicit discharges will vary
depending on the type and location of the problem. These methods
could include service lateral disconnection; cleaning of the line;
excavation and pipe replacement; manhole/catch basin repair;
pipe/structure grouting; or some type of in -place pipe repair
(including pipe bursting, slip lining, cured -in -place pipe repair, etc.).
The cost of such work will be the responsibility of the property owner
deemed responsible for the illicit discharge.
Evaluation of the illicit discharge detection and elimination plan will
include a comprehensive tracking system consisting of updated
mapping to reflect outfalls discovered during the ORI; surveyed
stream reaches with locations of obvious, suspect, and potential
discharges, and dumping sites; number of discharges corrected;
status and disposition of enforcement actions. Regular review of the
tracking system will reveal strengths and weakness of the plan, and
this information will be used to improve the program.
Non-Stormwater Discharges:
The City's NPDES Phase II Stormwater Ordinance specifically allows
non-stormwater discharges such as drinking water line flushing;
discharge from emergency fire fighting activity; irrigation water;
diverted stream flows; uncontaminated ground water;
uncontaminated pumping ground water; discharges from potable
water sources; residential foundation/footing drains; air conditioning
Page 24 of 36

condensation; uncontaminated springs; water from crawl space
pumps; individual non-commercial car washing operations; flows from
riparian habitats and wetlands; and street wash water provided they
do not significantly impact water quality.
Outreach:
The City will inform public employees, businesses, and the general
public of hazards associated with illegal discharges and improper
disposal of waste through utility mailers, the City newsletter, and on
the City's website. This outreach will be coordinated with and
included in the public education and pollution prevention/good
housekeeping minimum measure programs.
Staff Training:
The City will periodically screen training videos on illicit discharge
detection to public works and utility staff. If employees detect illicit
discharges while in the field they will report them to the Engineering
Department using standard reporting forms.

7.4 Construction Site Stormwater Runoff Control
The City of Hendersonville will continue to rely on the Henderson County
Erosion Control Division to fulfill this requirement of the permit.
Page 27 of 36

7.5 Post-Constructlon Stormwater Management in New Development and
Redevelopment
The City will continue to implement and enforce a post -construction
stormwater program to address stormwater runoff from new development
and redevelopment projects that disturb greater than or equal to one (1)
acre, including projects less than one (1) acre that are part of a larger
common plan of development or sale, that discharge into the City.
The City's program requires all projects falling under these categories to
apply for permit coverage, which requires stormwater management controls
that are designed, constructed, and maintained in accordance with the latest
edition of the North Carolina Division of Water Quality Stormwater Best
Management Practices Manual.
The Henderson County Environmental Health Division has oversight
authority over operation and maintenance of on -site wastewater treatment
systems with the City of Hendersonville. The City will coordinate with
Henderson County as necessary for this program.
Regulatory Mechanism:
The City adopted a post -construction stormwater management
program as part of its NPDES Phase II Stormwater Ordinance.
Operation and Maintenance:
The City's post -construction stormwater management program
requires that an operation and maintenance agreement is executed
and recorded with each development and redevelopment project.
This agreement requires the property owner to maintain, repair, and,
if necessary, reconstruct all structural BMPs and/or other stormwater
controls. The City's program requires the property owner to submit
an annual inspection report to the City, which is to be completed by a
qualified professional.
The City requires that selected BMPs draining to trout waters do not
result in a sustained increase in the receiving water temperature.
The City does not contain or have any areas within its jurisdiction that
drain to Nutrient Sensitive Waters.
Page 28 of 36

Non-structural BMPs:
The City has recently adopted a Comprehensive Master Plan that
incorporates several initiatives, including:
• Encouraging infill development and redevelopment that utilizes
existing infrastructure in order to maximize public investment
and revitalize existing neighborhoods.
• Creating an interconnected network of green infrastructure
that preserves environmentally sensitive area, protects water
resources through low -impact stormwater management,
provides floodwater storage, and provides community open
space and recreational opportunities.
• Encouraging community open space in new and/or
redeveloped residential neighborhoods; developing City -owned
vacant parcels into pocket parks; and acquiring and developing
parkland within environmentally sensitive areas such as stream
corridors.
• Preserving environmentally sensitive areas and land adjacent
to streams in order to protect water quality, reduce erosion,
and protect wildlife habitat.
The City has a Stream Buffer Protection ordinance, which maintains
at least thirty (30) feet of undisturbed vegetated area from both
banks of all "blue line" streams within the City's jurisdiction as shown
on the latest USGS mapping.
Natural Resource Protection:
The City's Stream Buffer Protection ordinance requires at least 30 feet
of undisturbed vegetated area from both stream banks, which helps
to improve and protect water quality.
The City's recently adopted Comprehensive Master Plan also calls for
preservation and restoration of floodways and floodplains in an
undisturbed, vegetated state to preserve flood storage capacity,
control the quality and quantity of stormwater, and preserve flora and
fauna habitat.
Page 29 of 36

Tree Preservation:
The City's zoning ordinance has requirements for street trees and
other landscaping within urban areas and contains provisions
recommending preservation of existing trees and vegetation.
The Stream Buffer Protection ordinance prohibits removal of trees
and other vegetation within the buffer area.
Redevelopment & Development in Areas with Existing Infrastructure:
The City's recently adopted Comprehensive Master Plan contains
provisions for encouraging infill development and redevelopment that
utilizes existing infrastructure in order to maximize public investment
and revitalize existing neighborhoods.
Mixed -Use Development:
The City's recently adopted Comprehensive Plan outlines new land
use provisions concentrating retail in dense, walkable, mixed -use
nodes located at major intersections in order to promote a sense of
community and a range of services that enhance the value of
Hendersonville's neighborhoods. This would encourage mixed -use,
walkable design through redevelopment and infill projects.
Street Design:
The City's zoning and subdivision ordinances offer ranges of street
types depending upon the development. The overall goal is to
minimize impervious area while maintaining sufficient access for
emergency vehicles. The City's recently adopted Comprehensive
Master Plan promotes the use of narrowed streets with bike lanes,
landscaped medians, and on -street parking.
Green Infrastructure Elements & Street Design:
The City's ordinances do not yet integrate green infrastructure
elements and street design, but may in the future, especially as
various provisions in the Comprehensive Master Plan are
implemented.
Page 30 of 36

Reduced Parking Requirements:
The City's ordinances do not yet integrate reduced parking
requirements, but may in the future.
Transportation Demand Management Alternatives:
Transportation demand management alternatives have not yet been
addressed in the City's ordinances.
Minimizing Stormwater from Parking Lots:
The City's zoning ordinance requires landscaping, buffers, and
screens with newly developed or redeveloped properties. This
landscaping can be installed as part of a parking lot.
Green Infrastructure Practices:
The City's newly adopted water restrictions ordinance as the as the
water rate structure, in general, encourage water conservation and
therefore, the use of rain barrels, harvested rain water, and other
stormwater reuse for irrigation and other non -potable uses.
Early in the stormwater management plan review process, site plans
are examined, and if possible, alternative/green infrastructure is
encouraged.
Maintenance/enforcement:
The City will establish a tracking database for stormwater
management systems. Inspection reports will be required annually
with specific maintenance steps for each structural BMP. City staff
complete periodic inspections to verify BMP and overall stormwater
management system performance.
Page 31 of 36

Green Infrastructure Strategies:
The City will revise ordinances
requirements as green infrastructure
advanced over the coming years.

Page 33 of 36

7.6 Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations
The City will develop and implement an operation and maintenance program
that includes a training component and has the ultimate goal of preventing
or reducing pollutant runoff from municipal operations.
Affected Operations:
The municipal operations impacted by this operation and
maintenance program include vehicle washing, automotive
maintenance, materials storage, road and park maintenance,
stormwater facilities maintenance, and sewer and water line
installation and repair activities. Vehicle washing and maintenance
occur in the Public Works Department's maintenance garage. Park
maintenance occurs on City park properties. Other municipal
operations described above take place throughout the City.
Training:
The City will continue to seek training for maintenance and public
works personnel in pollution prevention and good housekeeping
measures. The City's Public Works and Utilities personnel will
periodically view training videos on municipal stormwater pollution
prevention.
Maintenance and Inspections:
Public Works personnel maintain City park properties daily. All
garbage cans, picnic tables, dugouts, stands, and other park
amenities are anchored. Restrooms and concession stands are
contained within permanent structures.
Public Works motor pool personnel are in the maintenance garage
daily and follows a routine maintenance schedule. Public works staff
also respond as needed to complaints or maintenance needs. The
City has implemented a street sweeping program as well.
Page 34 of 36

Vehicular Operations:
The City of Hendersonville fleet includes 140 insured vehicles,
including passenger cars and various types of trucks.
Light vehicle maintenance (oil changes, tire rotation, etc.) and some
significant maintenance for City vehicles is performed at the
maintenance garage, which is enclosed and protected. Used oil is
collected for recycling and stored in a covered and anchored tank
with a concrete spill basin. This basin is checked regularly and after
rains for any evidence of seepage or leaks. Other significant
automotive repair for City vehicles is done utilizing local private
mechanic services.
There is a covered wash bay (which utilizes reused rainwater) for City
vehicles located behind the maintenance garage with an oil water
separator.
The City utilizes a commercial refueling facility for the City fleet.
Sand and salt storage is under shelter near the Public Works
maintenance garage. Other materials are also stored within garage
and hazardous materials are stored on spill —pallets to contain any
materials that seep, leak, or spill out of their containers or
barrels/drums.
Parking lot run-off from City Hall and the Fire Department drains into
existing storm drains installed by NCDOT along King Street and US
25. Drainage from the City Operations Center (where the Public
Works and Utilities Departments are housed) parking lot flows into a
tributary of Mud Creek.
Waste Disposal:
The City does not own or operate a waste transfer station. City
garbage trucks collect garbage weekly and deliver it to the Henderson
County landfill. The City contracts with a private company to collect
recyclables.
