Subject: NPDES Phase II Stormwater Program
In 1990 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Phase I stormwater program was promulgated under the
Clean Water Act. Phase I relies on National Pollutant discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit coverage to
address stormwater runoff from: (1) "medium" and "large" municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) generally
serving populations of 100,000 or greater, (2) construction activity disturbing 5 acres of land or greater, and (3) ten
categories of industrial activity. The NPDES Stormwater Phase lI Final Rule was promulgated in December 1999 and is
the next step in EPA's effort to preserve, protect, and improve the Nation's water resources from polluted storm water
runoff. The Phase lI program expands the Phase I program by requiring additional operators of MS4s in urbanized areas
and operators of small construction sites, through the use of NPDES permits, to implement programs and practices to
control stormwater runoff. Phase 1I is intended to further reduce adverse impacts to water quality and aquatic habitat by
instituting the use of controls on the unregulated sources of stormwater discharges that have the greatest likelihood of
causing continued environmental degradation.
The NPDES Stormwater Phase II Final Rule requires nationwide coverage of all operators of small MS4s that are
located within the boundaries of a Bureau of the Census defined "urbanized area" based on the latest decennial Census.
We are writing to you to remind you that the Town of Winterville has been identified as being located within a census
designated urbanized area in both the 1990 and 2000 decennial census. As a regulated community, you are required to
develop a stormwater management program and apply for stormwater permit coverage, if you own and operate a small
MS4 or file a certification that the Town of Winterville does not own or operate a small MS4. The deadline for
submitting your application package or non -ownership certification is March 10, 2003. Application and certification
documents, as well as additional information on the NPDES stormwater program, are available for download at our web
site. Our web address is http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/stormwater.htm1. You may also contact us for hard copies of the
documents. If you have any questions about this letter, please feel free to contact me (919-733-5083, ext.525) or Darren
