This SWMP identifies the specific elements and minimum measures that the Town of Rutherford College 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 NCS000480, 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 Rutherford College and located within the corporate limits of the Town of Rutherford College. In preparing this SWMP, the Town of Rutherford College 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.

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 Receiving Water Name Stream Water 303(d) Listed Parameters) Index / AU Quality of Interest Number Classification Catawba River l l-(37) WS-IV, B, n/a CA Hoyle Creek 11-45-(0.5 & WS-IV, CA n/a 2) Island Creek 11-46-(0.5) WS-IV, CA n/a Smith Branch 11-46-1 WS-IV n/a 3.4 MS4 Interconnection The Town of Rutherford College MS4 is interconnected and drrectly receives stormwater from the Town of Valdese MS4 (reference BMP 19); however the Town of Rutherford College MS4 does not directly discharge stormwater into another MS4. DRAFT NCS000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College September 27, 2019 Page 9 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 NCDEO 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. Outreach education and stream cleanup helps with the reduction of waste load allocation within approved TMDL municipalities.

NCGNE0258 BSN-Jobst, Inc. 3.8 Non-Stormwater Discharges The water quality impacts of non-stormwater discharges have been evaluated by the Town of Rutherford College as summarized in Table 6 below. The unpermitted non-Stormwater flows listed as incidental do not significantly impact water quality. The Town of Rutherford College has evaluated residential and charity car washing and street washing for possible significant water quality impacts. Streetwashing discharges are addressed under the Pavement Management Frogram in Part 10 of this SWMP. The Department of Environmental Quality has not required that other non-stormwater flows be specifically controlled by the Town of Rutherford College. 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/surfactants have been evaluated by the Town of Rutherford College to determine whether they may significantly impact water quality. The Town of Rutherford College will address the possibility of the below mentioned water quality impacts through public education and good housekeeping, as outlined in Part 5, BMP 3-7. and Part 10 BMP 45-479 49, 53, 54, 56, 57 and 61 with a focus on the training of good housekeeping practices.

Table 7 below summarizes the water quality pollutants identified throughout Part 3 of this SWMP, the likely activities/sourceshargeted audiences attributed to each pollutant, and identifies the associated SWMP program(s) that address it. In addition, the Town of Rutherford College has evaluated schools, homeowners, construction sites and businesses as target audiences that are likely to have significant stormwater impacts. Within the table below the following target pollutants have been commonly found to be concerns within the community. Litter: Illegal dumping has occurred within the Town. Cases general residential dumping have been noted by Town employees. This litter poses a threat to both our water bodies and the MS4 infrastructure, as the litter can create clogs and backups that damage the pipelines leading back to the stream. Some litter even poses a threat to groundwater if chemical leaching or breakdown of components into heavy metals occurs due to weathering of the litter. The dumping has been found typically road side but also in secluded urban areas. Sediment: Previous installed erosion control measure have been removed or fallen Sediment buildup is largely attributed to mismanaged construction sites with fallen or incorrectly installed sediment fences. It has been noticed in bothreports from Citizens and by code enforcement officers that there are several cases of construction sites not maintaining their erosion control fences during work. This has led to sediment buildup near storm drains, onto down slope private properties, and in some cases causing water to build up in nearby properties as the sediment is limiting the drains ability to remove runoff. In all cases code enforcement has responded and had the issue solved, but even being down for a short time can prove to have significant effects. Erosion control fences are required for sediment control permits during construction by the DEQ throughout the entire construction process. Gray Water: Straight piping washing machines out of the house Rarely, it has been noted a few homes have had their washing machines straight -piped out of their homes by creating makeshift piping using water hoses. exit at windows. Homes are to be connected to the appropriate sewer system. This proves to be a source of detergents/soaps entering our storm drains in residential neighborhoods. In addition: residential, charity, and municipal car washes allow for soaps or waxes to enter the storm drain when vehicles are not being cleaned in the correct areas (such as vegetated patches or in areas that do not have storm drains). This allows for toxic contaminants to enter our waterways via the storm drain system. Fats Oils and Grease: Restaurants could possibly empty grease traps or not obtain a grease trap. DRAFT NCS000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College September 27, 2019 Page 13 The Health Department has reported restaurants not maintaining, or even owning, grease traps. This has led to cases of the restaurants either illegally dumping the grease or allowing the grease to drip onto nearby impermeable surface — which would eventually lead to water quality issues. Overflow from a lack of maintenance or throwing out the grease with general waste contributes to this problem. This is a health violation since the grease poses a physical risk, but it also can impair water bodies with an influx of water insoluble grease going down the storm drain. Chemicals: Totes have been noted in industrial areas, which could pose a risk. Town staff have noticed containers within manufacturing facilities that have unmarked chemicals. The totes are unlabeled in select industrial sites, leading to potential soil and water contamination, and/or incorrect spill cleanup procedure. In addition to not labeling the containers correctly, the Town has noted that the containers are not being correctly stored in a way to minimize risk to the water bodies from seepage, damage to the containers, or spills. Animal Operations/Urban Farming: A challenge to ensuring water quality for several factors. Animal operations are agriculture operations that raise cows, pigs, chickens, or other livestock as a product, be it from meat or byproducts of the animal, the latter being more problematic as the excess nutrients will lead to eutrophication which can eventually causing hypoxia in the water body. In a similar vein, agricultural runoff often canes excess fertilizer which also will cause eutrophication in streams with its cascading effects. Within the Catawba River Basin roughly 46 streams are/were impacted by fecal coliform, with 10 being listed on the 303(d) list. As this is a non -point source pollutant it is hard to locate the exact source of this runoff, however in much of the watershed there is agricultural zoning that makes it likely for these types of impairments to occur. Roughly 20% of land use within the basin is agricultural. Urban farming is a common theme within the Town. Upon meeting appropriate requirements one can obtain a zoning permit to allow farm -like animals. The same holds true as animal operations, but to a lesser scale, the excrement and ground disturbance can impact the water quality. Underground storage tanks: SEorage devices installed below ground that contain hazardous materials/waste. These tanks can contain gasoline,. fuels such as propane, industrial chemicals/oIls, and most often human waste in areas not directly connected to the sanitary sewer. Any underground storage tank must be well maintained/monitored, and correctly installed due to the risk of them leaking. The leaks can cause whatever chemical the tank is storing to leak into the ground, harming the soil, groundwater/water table, and even surface waters as they are being fed from groundwater. If a fuel or industrial chemical tank is leaking, the chemical will leach into the soil — leading to toxic soil, contaminated groundwater, and possibly impairing a stream/water body. If a septic tank is leaking, it can overwhelm the natural processes of the soil (infiltration) leading to nutrient overload in streams fed by groundwater, or allowing pathogens to enter, increasing the risk of disease. The 10 303(d) fecal coliform impaired streams listed can have some attribution to septic tank leakage. Illicit discharges: Originate from a variety of sources, with an equally varied number of effects dependent on the chemical that is released. DRAFT NC5000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College September 27, 2019 Page 14 Typically, illicit discharges come from businesses, residents or municipal facilities who dump chemicals into storm drains either incidentally due to a lack of Illicit Discharge & Detection Elimination (IDDE) education or general carelessness. These chemicals can vary greatly, and can include grease, oils, chemicals, cleaning solutions, paints, metals, etc. This is a recognized problem as we have several 303(d) streams impaired from causes related to substances or attributions given to unclean discharges into the streams - in addition to reports generated by the municipality. Many of the 303(d)benthos impaired streams can be attributed to IDDE issues, but they are often from inexact/non-point sources that are attributed to illicit discharges Illegal dumping: When residents, businesses, or municipal employees dump waste randomly in non -permitted dumping areas. This waste can widely vary, causing a variety of problems. For example, citizens dumping televisions on the side of the road to avoid dumping fees, which allows for the metals or chemicals inside the tv to leach out as stormwater passes it (mercury, lead, and other metals). It can be a case of businesses dumping waste in watershed areas where runoff passes through the waste, either carrying it, or residuals of the waste into water bodies. It can also be a case of graders dumping sediment into areas without the correct allowances/precautions. The debris and chemicals accumulate over time and lead to chemical impairments, pH issues, turbidity impairments, or debris entering the stream/MS4 system. Improper disposal of waste: Improper disposal of waste is problematic because it allows chemicals, or difficult to manage waste, to enter the environment in ways that may be hard to track. For example; not giving a car battery to the correct waste management facility can allow for battery acid and lead to enter the soil which drains/collects in the groundwater. This problem has been noticed by municipal waste managers and is difficult to track as often the improper disposal waste is mixed in with the standard refuse. Other examples include grease going down sinks clogging MS4 systems, chemicals from batteries leaching into the groundwater, oil from oil changes not going to the correct facility, etc. Table 7: Summary of Target Pollutants and Sources Target Pollutant(s) Likely Sources)/Target Audiences) SWMP Program Addressing Tar et Pollutants)/Audience(s) Litter Residents, Businesses, Schools Public Education & Outreach Public Participation Sediment Construction Activity Public Education & Outreach, Construction Program Post -construction Program Gray water Residential Illicit Discharge Public Education & Outreach Fats, Oils and Grease Businesses (Restaurants) Illicit Discharge Public Education & Outreach Chemicals Industrial, Business and Residential Illicit Discharge Public Education & Outreach Good Housekeeping DRAFT NC5000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College.

The budget includes the permit administering and compliance fee, which is billed by DEQ annually. As mentioned previous, WPCOG was contracted to write the Town of Rutherford College's Stormwater Management Plan, for a rate of $8,000.00. Also, the Town has a one-year contract (which will need to be modified, adopted, and signed every year) with Western Piedmont Council of Governments for the following services: Public Education & Outreach Program and Public Involvement & Participation Program. The current one year contract (July 1, 2019 and ending June 30, 2020) amount is $2,845.00, The Town of Rutherford College will be using Town staff, and on occasion West Consultants, to implement Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Program, Post -Construction Site Runoff Control Program, and Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping Programs. The Town has allocated $11,500.00 toward this effort. The Town will be responsible for the cost of the annual NPDES permit renewal, which is to be paid to the state. Any fees charged to the development community for BMP Inspections, Plan Review, and other associated fees will help offset this cost to the town. The Town reserves the right to apply stormwater utility fees to supplement stormwater management costs; these fees would be collected by the Town through tax or utility bills. The goal would be for the funds collected to support the stormwater program through stream repairs and other water quality efforts. Should the Town of Rutherford College choose not to renew the existing one-year contract with WPCOG, prior to the last month, a revision to the existing NPDES permit and Stormwater Management Plan would need to occur. The Town of Rutherford College would be required to renew the one-year contract for five years straight to fully carry out the 5 year NPDES permit cycle. Any changes to the partners or measures in this document will need to be reviewed and approved by NCDEQ. 4.3 Shared Responsibility The Town of Rutherford College will be responsible to implement the following minimum control measures, with the aid of WPCOG (entity)., which are as stringent as the corresponding NPDES MS4 Permit requirement. The Town of Rutherford College remains responsible for compliance if the other entity fails to perform the permit obligation and may be subject to enforcement action, if neither the Town of Rutherford College, nor the other entity fully performs the permit obligation.

DRAFT NCS000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College September 27, 2019 Page 31 PART 7: ILLICIT DISCHARGE DETECTION AND ELIMINATION PROGRAM M34 Inspection Report forthe Town of Rutherford College —Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE), Permit Citation II.D.2.a. IDDE Program: The Town is regulated by the water supply watershed protection ordinance, which does not contain any specific language on the application of notice of violations. Written procedures for implementing an IDDE Program have not been completed. In response the Town will locate priority areas likely to have Illicit discharges, conduct routine dry weather outfall inspections, identify illicit discharges and trace sources, eliminate the source(s) of an Illicit discharge, and evaluate and assess the IDDE Program. The Town will also, in responses to, MS4 Inspection Report for the Town of Rutherford College —Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination (IDDE), Permit Citation II.D.2.b. Legal Authority, the Town will create, adopt, maintain and enforce a stormwater ordinance and other regulatory mechanisms that provide the legal authority to prohibit illicit connections and discharges to the MS4. The Town maintained a map, but the major outfalls were not identified at time of audit. Since the audit was complete, the Town hired West Consulting to map all outfalls, inlets, basins, and flow direction (II.D.2.c. Storm Sewer System Map). In the future the Town will continue to update the MS4 map as new development occurs (Permit Ref: 3.4.1 BMP 19). In the last permit cycle, the Town did not conduct dry weather screening or maintain written procedures for dry weather field activity (II.D.2.d. Dry Weather Flow Program). Within the Stormwater Management Plan a schedule is to be created to conduct dry weather screening each winter. Data such as date screening occurred, location of inspected outfall, and photos of outfall will be recorded in GIS. The Town of Rutherford College Stormwater Management Plan outlines the response authority, but not procedures (II.D.2.e.). Due to water supply watershed not identifying notice of violation procedures, the Town of Rutherford College issued no NOVs. Currently, there is not a way to track and document investigations (II.D.21 & j.).Within the new permit cycle, as stated below, the Town will be adopting an IIDE Plan to establish written procedures. A chart will be used to track and document IDDE cases. This will allow the Town to identify priority areas based on historical data. Further, the Town will train municipal staff and the general public to identify illicit discharge and illegal dumping through the use of educational outreach materials and training opportunities. Previously, no training had been administered to employees (II.D.2.g.). Information to the public was provided in bill inserts on a regular basis (II.D.21.). Educational material will be available to help educate public employees, businesses, and the general public about hazards associated with illicit discharges and the improper disposal of waste. Public complaints of any kind can be report through a webpage portal; however the line of communication was not publicized (II.D.2.i). The Stormwater hotline phone number, as mentioned in the public education and outreach and illicit discharge areas of this plan. The Town of Rutherford College will develop, manage, implement, document, report and enforce an Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Program which shall, at a minimum, include the following illicit discharge detection and elimination BMPs.

MS4 Inspection Report for the Town of Rutherford College — Post -construction Site Runoff Control Program Implementation Status, Permit Citation: II.F.3.c. Nutrient Sensitive Waters: The Town had not designed or constructed any SCMs in the permitted area specifically to reduce nutrient loads. This SWMP 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 Rutherford College and discharge into the MS4. These elements are designed to minimize water quality impacts by 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 Rutherford College implements the following State post -construction program requirements, which satisfy the NPDES Phase II M34 post - construction site runoff control requirements as Qualifying Alternative Program(s) (QAPs) in the MS4 area(s) where they are implemented.

DRAFT NCS000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College September 27, 2019 Page 56 PART 10: POLLUTION PREVENTION AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAMS This SWMP provides a comprehensive pollution prevention and good housekeeping strategy for the Town of Rutherford College 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 park 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 Cleaning Program 7. Pavement Management Program The Town of Rutherford College will manage, implement and report the pollution prevention and good housekeeping BMPs as specified in Table 21 below for each required program. In response to the inefficiencies identified in the MS4 Inspection Report, Permit Citations H.G.2.a., the Town had maintained an inventory of municipal facilities, but had not determined which facilities were at risk to generate polluted stormwater runoff. A list of these possible polluters will be established. An O & M program for the facilities, SCMs, catch basins and conveyance systems has not be created to date (II.G.2.b, ILG.2.e, and ILG.2.fJ. After the acceptance of the SWMP and in Permit Year One, an O & M program will be established. (BMP 45). Furthermore, the municipal facilities and SCMs were being inspected annually, as required per DEQ, but did not include documentation for potential stormwater impacts (H.G.2.b. and II.G.21.). Incorporated in the O & M program, staff will be trained to determine appropriate operations and maintenance for facilities and SCMs. To date staff had no training in this area. The Town of Rutherford College staff did not perform street maintenance, including cleaning of catch basins and stormwater conveyances (H.G.2.e). H.G.2.d states that "The Town of Rutherford College did not evaluate BMPs based on their pollutant removal" in reference to streets, roads, and public parking lot maintenance. Several of the BMPs below address this issue by developing, adopting, and maintaining procedures that focus on pollutant removal in these impervious areas. Permit Reference: 3.7.7, BMP's 58-61 address this prior lack of evaluation and program implementation. BMP 58 focuses on setting schedules and requirements for street/parking lot sweeping. BMPs 59 and BMP 60 focuses on minimizing and collecting litter/debris, with BMP 59.13.2 working in part as a community outreach program. BMP 61 addresses procedures for cleaning the oils, fluids, and debris that can come from car accidents by utilizing the developed standard spill procedures as necessary according to H.G.2.c. DRAFT NCS000480 SWMP Town of Rutherford College September 27, 2019 Page 57 In the audit, II.G.2.e addresses the prior lack of maintenance of the Town's storm sewer system, Permit Reference, 3.7.3, BMP's 48-51 focus on the training, inspection, and maintenance of said system. BMP 48 develops the required O&M plan which defines procedures/schedules, BMP 49 trains maintainers on the correct procedure, BMP 50 focuses on inspection along with its documentation, and BMP 51 addresses the audit problem itself by performing the maintenance on the system with documentation. Previously, the use of pesticides, herbicides, and fert liters in municipal facilities was not well tracked or managed as stated in II.G.2.i. Permit Reference, 3.7.5, BMP 54 focuses to ensure all staff using pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers are officially certified and following appropriate (minimal) usage. BMP 55 focuses on tracking contractor certification as well as the copies of permits of both municipal staff and contractors. II.G.2.j. addresses inconstant/lacking training for municipal employees in regards to good housekeeping and pollution practices. This is addressed in: 46.B.5, 47.B.4, 49.B.1 BMP 53.B.5, 54.B.1, 56.B.2, 57.b.3, 61.b.1, and 45.b.l. Each of these BMPs focusing on each of the 7 programs required by the permit. II.G.2.k. addresses a lack of measures regarding correct waste disposal and cleaning of municipal vehicles/equipment. BMP 56 focuses on the washing side of the problem, addressing training, protocol, requirements, and options for municipal vehicle operators. BMP 57 focuses on the other side of the issue, ensuring that vehicle maintenance facilities are correctly disposing of waste and that permitting is correctly followed to ensure MS4 compliance.
