Page 13 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT CITY OF ROXBORO 7.1.2 Target Audience Roxboro residents, school children, local businesses (including gas station owners and landscaping companies) and industry, will be targeted because these groups have the most impact on stormwater pollution prevention. 7.1.3 Target Pollutant Sources The education program will target total suspended solids and nutrient loading because turbidity, sedimentation, and nutrients are the pollutants of concern in downstream waters. In addition, floatables, trash, and debris will also be targeted. The education program will also address the proper use and disposal of typical household chemicals, garden chemicals, and used motor oil. 7.1.4 Outreach Program School programs, printed materials to be distributed via mail and public events, and participation in state cleanup programs will be used to reach the target audience. By using these methods, the education program will be expected to reach all residents of Roxboro, as well as those that do business here, over the course of the five year permit period. As a result of this outreach program, the target audience will be informed of the importance of reducing storm water pollution and ways they can incorporate pollution reduction in their daily lives. 7.1.5 Decision Process The formation of the storm water public education and outreach program was based on the mechanisms currently in place, and their means and effectiveness of communicating and educating the public about the issues of stormwater pollution prevention. Each of the BMP's selected were judged to be an effective and economical tool for educating the general public and/or specific groups within the community, with a specific measurable goal with which to gauge its effectiveness. 7.1.6 Evaluation The education and outreach program will be evaluated based on how each individual BMP is meeting its measurable goal at the end of each reporting period. Changes will be considered for any BMPs that are not meeting the measurable goals.

Page 18 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT CITY OF ROXBORO 7.3.2 Storm Sewer System Map The storm sewer system will be mapped and field verified during the course of normal maintenance operations by the public service department. The route of the system, locations of pipes, drainage ditches, and outfalls will be added to the City's GIS database. Approximately 25% of the MS4 will be mapped each year. The map will be updated as needed during subsequent maintenance operations. 7.3.3 Regulatory Mechanism Create a stormwater ordinance to include illicit detection, right of entry, and prohibition of certain non-stormwater discharges. 7.3.4 Enforcement: There are provisions in the ordinance for enforcement actions and penalties for dumping, spills, and willful illicit connection. 7.3.5 Detection and Elimination After the field screening is complete, the City will take measures to identify and remove illegal discharges. Identifying illegal discharges may require a combination of office and field work. After the field screening, staff will consult the jurisdiction -wide information they have compiled to obtain information about the land uses, infrastructure, industries, potential sources and types of pollution that may exist in the drainage area of the outfall. After priority areas have been identified in the office, a systematic field investigation will be planned that minimizes the amount of resources required to identify the source. The following field methods may be used to identify and trace the source of illegal discharges: • Site Investigation • Dry weather flow observations • Smoke Testing/Dye Testing • Television Inspection The right of entry established in the ordinance will provide access for inspection if the origin of the discharge is in doubt. Once an illegal discharge is located and confirmed through field screening, staff will notify the responsible party verbally if possible and follow-up with written notification. If the responsible party does not comply with the removal schedule provided by the City, or receive approval for a revised schedule, the City will take enforcement action and the connection will be removed at the responsible party's expense. Page 19 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT CITY OF ROXBORO 7.3.6 Non Stormwater Discharges Currently there are no known non-stormwater discharges that are a significant contributor to the MS4. If any are identified in the future, they will be addressed at that time. 7.3.7 Outreach City employees will be informed of the hazards associated with illegal discharges and improper disposal of waste as part of their general training requirements. These will be addressed in the Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping section of this plan, and will include training in hazardous material handling and disposal, as well as notices and signs posted in the appropriate areas. The general public will be educated through the BMP's listed in the Public Education section of this plan. These educational BMP's will include brochures, public service announcements, and business education and outreach programs. 7.3.8 Decision Process The formation of the storm water Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination program was based primarily on regulatory mechanisms. The regulatory, educational, procedural BMP's selected were judged to be an effective means of detecting and eliminating illicit discharges. 7.3.9 Evaluation The effectiveness of the program will be gauged by the total number of illicit connections detected and removed each year and with public complaints. If the total number remains constant, or increases, changes will be made to the public education program and/or the City ordinance to allow for greater enforcement and penalties. 7.4 CONSTRUCTION SITE STORmwATER RUNOFF CONTROL The City of Roxboro will rely on the North Carolina State Erosion and Sediment Control Program and the Department of Water Quality's general stormwater permit program for construction activities to meet the construction site stormwater runoff control requirement.

Page 22 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT CITY OF RoxBORO 7.5.2 Stormwater Management Options The existing land usage ordinance will be amended to include a post - construction stormwater runoff management program for new development and redevelopment projects that disturb greater than, or equal to, one acre. This includes projects of less than one acre that are a part of a larger common plan of development or sale that discharges into the MS4. All such projects shall be required to apply for locally issued construction permit coverage under one of the following stormwater management options: 7.5.2.1 Low Density Projects Projects shall be permitted as low density if the project meets the following: (1) No more than 2 dwelling units per acre or 24 percent built -upon area (BUA) for all residential and non-residential development; (II) Stormwater runoff from the development shall be transported from the development by vegetated conveyances to the maximum extent practicable: (III)AII BUA shall be at a minimum of 30 feet landward of all perennial and intermittent surface waters. For the purpose of this Rule, a surface water shall be present if the feature is approximately shown on either the most recent version of the soil survey map prepared by the Natural Resources Conservation Service of the United States Department of Agriculture or the most recent version of the 1:24,000 scale (7.5 minute) quadrangle topographic maps prepared by the United States Geologic Survey (USGS). An exception to this requirement may be allowed when surface waters are not present in accordance with the provisions of 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (3)(a); and (IV) The permit shall require recorded deed restrictions and protective covenants to ensure that development activities maintain the development consistent with the approved project plans. 7.5.2.2 High Density Projects Projects exceeding the low density threshold (established above in low density section) shall implement stormwater control measures that: (1) Control and treat the difference in stormwater runoff volume leaving the project site between the pre and post development conditions for the 1 year 24 hour storm. Runoff volume Page 23 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT CITY OF ROXBORO drawdown time shall be a minimum of 24 hours, but not more than 120 hours; (II) All structural stormwater treatment systems used to meet the requirements of the program shall be designed to have an 85% average annual removal for Total Suspended Solids: (III)General Engineering Design Criteria for all projects shall be in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .1008(c); (IV) All BUA shall be at a minimum of 30 feet landward of all perennial and intermittent surface waters. For the purpose of this Rule, a surface water shalt be present if the feature is approximately shown on either the most recent version of the soil survey map prepared by the Natural Resources Conservation Service of the United States Department of Agriculture or the most recent version of the 1:24,000 scale (7.5 minute) quadrangle topographic maps prepared by the United States Geologic Survey (USGS). An exception to this requirement may be allowed when surface waters are not present in accordance with the provisions of 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (3)(a); and (V) The permit shall require recorded deed restrictions and protective covenants to ensure that development activities maintain the development consistent with the approved project plans; 7.5.3 Non -Structural BMP's The receiving streams in the City's watershed are classified as Nutrient Sensitive Waters; therefore the amended ordinance shall also ensure that the best management practice for reducing nutrient loading is implemented. In addition, a nutrient application (both inorganic fertilizer and organic nutrients) management program shall be developed and included in the stormwater management program. 7.5.4 Structural BMPs Standards and policies will be developed that ensure structural BMPs will be in conformance with the state's Stormwater Management Design Manual. 7.5.5 Regulatory Mechanism In the first year, the City will assess existing ordinances, policies, programs and studies that address storm water runoff quality. In addition to assessing these existing documents and programs, the City will provide opportunities to the public to participate in the development of the program. The existing land usage ordinance will then be amended to include a post -construction stormwater runoff Page 24 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT CITY OF ROXBORO management program for new development and redevelopment. This ordinance will also include enforcement mechanisms that will provide the legal authority to act, procedures to follow, and appropriate actions in the event of non- compliance. 7.5.6 Operation and Maintenance The existing land usage ordinance will be amended to address the long-term operation and maintenance of post -construction controls. The amended ordinance will include guidelines for delegating routine and non -routine maintenance responsibilities to ensure access for inspections, and providing a mechanism for enforcement. 7.5.7 Decision Process The post construction stormwater management program shall ensure that controls are in place that will prevent or minimize water quality impacts from new development and redevelopment projects. These controls should include an amended ordinance to address post -construction runoff control from new development and redevelopment projects and ensure adequate long-term operation and maintenance of BMPs. 7.5.8 Evaluation The post construction site management for new and re -development activities program will be evaluated based on how each individual BMP is meeting its measurable goal at the end of each reporting period. Changes will be considered for any BMPs that are not meeting the measurable goals.

Operations at all of the affected operations will be reviewed during the permit cycle. 7.6.3 Training Training materials will be developed on pollution prevention for public facilities, using similar materials as will be used in the public outreach program. All employees will be educated annually on the need for controls to protect stormwater from exposure to potential pollutants. This training will also serve as the training requirement for public employees as specified in the outreach component of the Illicit Discharge section of this program. All public employees involved in vehicle, open space, or building maintenance operations will be provided training in BMPs, processes and materials they are working with, safety hazards, practices for preventing discharges, and procedures for responding quickly and properly to toxic and hazardous material incidents. This training will be in conjunction with the training requirements of the future Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures plan. All public employees involved in stormwater drainage system maintenance will be specifically trained in the disposal of floatables, grit, sediment, and other pollutants removed from the system. Additional training, or certification, will be provided to employees that manage and apply chemicals for control of dust, pests, vermin, and weeds and/or to enhance the growth or condition of public urban landscape and recreation facilities. Training will target the safe and effective application, storage and disposal of chemicals used. 7.6.4 Maintenance and Inspections A preventive maintenance program will be developed that will include routine inspections of catch basins, storm water detention areas, and water quality treatment systems. A similar program will be implemented for vehicles, equipment, and material storage areas in the maintenance yard. Inspections will ensure all equipment and material storage containers are in good condition. Any problems or issues that may have an impact on stormwater quality will be noted and corrective action taken. Vehicle washing and fueling operations will be inspected annually to ensure that they are in good working order and that they minimize exposure of stormwater to chemicals, fuels, and other liquids. Schedules and procedures will be established for the inspections, and an organized record -keeping system will be implemented to schedule and document inspections. Page 28 COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROGRAM REPORT TOWN OF ROXBORO 7.6.5 Vehicular Operations All vehicles, equipment, and associated material are stored in covered facilities. The vehicle and equipment washing operation currently employs a sediment removal device within the wash bay. The City also uses a vacuum street sweeper to regularly clean City roads and parking lots. The collected debris is temporarily stored in an uncovered area at the waste water treatment plant, before transfer to the landfill. As part of the stormwater management plan, other pollution reduction measures (such as installation of a oil/water separator for the wash bay or covering the temporary storage area) will be evaluated and implemented. 7.6.6 Waste Disposal Debris and floatables collected from the MS4 are temporarily stored in an uncovered area at the maintenance facility before transfer to the landfill. Garbage, yard waste, and heavy garbage collection are collected by the City. Used oil from vehicle and equipment maintenance operations is stored onsite and periodically collected by a certified oil recycler. 7.6.7 Flood Management Projects Future flood management projects will be reviewed from a water quality standpoint. 7.6.8 Decision Process The most effective and practical BMPs for minimizing stormwater pollution were selected for this program. 7.6.9 Evaluation The pollution prevention/good housekeeping for municipal operations program will be evaluated based on how each individual BMP is meeting its measurable goal at the end of each reporting period. Changes will be considered for any BMPs that are not meeting the measurable goals. Page 29
