2. STORM SEWER SYSTEM INFORMATION
2.1 Population Served:
Winston-Salem is in the northwestern area of the Piedmont Region of North Carolina. Situated in Forsyth
County, Winston-Salem is the fifth largest city in North Carolina and has an estimated population of 254,032
citizens (based on data from the World Population Review website, August 2024).
2.2 Growth Rate:
The City of Winston-Salem increased its population size by 0.42 percent annually and 1.69 percent from the last
U.S. Census, which was recorded in 2020.
2.3 Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas:
The City of Winston-Salem does not have any ETJ areas currently. The square mile area for the city is 132.45.
2.3aLatitude of Center of MS4 Area: 36 degrees 06' 9.95"N
Longitude of Center of MS4 Area: 80 degrees 15' 37.77"W
2.3bStorm Sewer Service Area(square miles): 132.45
2.4 Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4):
The City of Winston-Salem is authorized to discharge stormwater from its municipal separate storm sewer
system (MS4) into the waters of the State of North Carolina. A National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System(NPDES)permit is the legal mechanism that allows the City of Winston-Salem to discharge stormwater
runoff into streams. All six minimum measures, which govern the City of Winston-Salem's Stormwater
Program, are contained within this permit.
The City of Winston-Salem is delineated into 17 different sub-watersheds that drain the City and its surrounding
area. The streams, within these sub-watersheds, flow in a southwesterly direction into Lower Muddy Creek; the
original fifteen watersheds had stormwater masterplans developed for staff by a consultant. Current objectives
of masterplan efforts include providing a comprehensive update of the existing storm sewer inventory
(contained within public, private, and industrial properties),perform stream-walking assessments and
stormwater discharge outfall monitoring, and evaluate the impacts of stormwater discharges on the quality of
Winston-Salem's streams. Information obtained from those plans show that Winston-Salem has approximately
538 miles of stormwater conveyance piping and 39,818 infrastructure devices, which includes catch basins and
manholes. Based on the city's current GIS layer, there are approximately 547 miles of perennial and
intermittent streams within the municipal boundaries of Winston-Salem.
2.4aMS4 maintenance activities:
Cave-in reports are responded to within 24 hours of first knowledge of occurrence with simple repairs being
completed within 72 hours. Maintenance activities include the following services of catch basin inspection and
cleaning,pipe repair, replacement and upgrade projects, ditching (performed by hired contractors or in-house
crews), and street sweeping activities are performed by in-house services.

2.5 Land Use Composition Estimates:
The land use estimates below are from the City of Winston-Salem Planning Department(source: The Legacy
2030, Table 4-1, dated 2012)
Land Use Classification
Residential=43.14%
Commercial=2.81 %
Industrial =3.32%
Parks/Open Space=2.09%
Institutional=2.94%
Right-of-Way= 8.15 %
Office/Office Commercial=0.46%
Agricultural = 15.71 %
Vacant =20.97%
Utility =0.41%
TOTAL 100.0%
2.6 Estimate Methodology:
Classifications are based on zoning districts with the corresponding acreage versus the total acreage of the City
of Winston-Salem. For this assessment, schools have been calculated as institutional purposes and parks are
listed separately (typically included in the residential classification).
2.7 TMDL Identification:
The North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality(NCDEQ)has detected standard violations of
turbidity and chlorophyll a at High Rock Lake, which is 25 miles south of Winston-Salem. A TMDL is
currently being developed for wastewater point sources within the High Rock Lake Watershed, which indirectly
receives stormwater discharges from the City's MS4. The main contributing river to High Rock Lake is the
Yadkin River, in which Muddy Creek discharges into near the Forsyth-Davidson County border.
NCDEQ determined that the Salem Creek Watershed is biologically impaired due to excessive fecal coliform
concentrations. As a result, the Stormwater Division continues to perform water sampling to determine
pollutant origin sources of fecal coliform loading into Salem Creek. The City of Winston-Salem revised its
TMDL Sampling Plan in 2019, which resulted in 22 water sampling sites being selected throughout Salem,
Peters, and Brushy Fork Watersheds. Stormwater staff will perform basic statistical analyses of collected water
quality samples; once a sufficient population of data points exists to discern an observable trend, staff will
report its findings to NCDEQ.
In November 2011,NCDEQ issued a final report for turbidity impairment of the Muddy Creek Watershed. The
Muddy Creek TMDL designates the City of Winston-Salem's MS4 as a significant contributor of turbidity (i.e.
total suspended solids)pollution. A waste load allocation(WLA) was not assigned to the City's NPDES
permit; however, total suspended solids loading (ton per a day) must be reduced by 58 percent. In accordance
with its NPDES permit, the city must evaluate strategies and adapt BMPs to reduce TSS loading within the
Muddy Creek Watershed.

4. EXISTING WATER QUALITY PROGRAMS
Local Programs
Water Supply Watershed Protection—The Salem Lake Watershed Protection Ordinance is in place to
provide regulations, which protect drinking water quality in the Salem Lake Watershed. These regulations meet
or exceed the minimum regulations established by the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission
under the provisions of the Water Supply Watershed Protection Act of 1989.
Floodway and Floodway Fringe Regulations—Winston-Salem has adopted floodway and floodway fringe
regulations to control alteration of natural drainage patterns, control development and to ensure stream
velocities are not significantly increased.
Erosion and Sediment Control—The City of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County is a locally-delegated
program that enforces the North Carolina Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973. The Erosion Control
Ordinance regulates certain land disturbing activities to control accelerated erosion and sedimentation to
prevent the pollution of water and other damage to lakes and watercourses.
NPDES MS4 Phase I Permit—The City was issued a new stormwater permit that became effective October
10, 2018. Program components include public education and outreach,public involvement and participation,
illicit discharge detection and elimination, construction site runoff controls, post-construction site runoff
controls, and pollution prevention and good housekeeping for municipal operations.
Code Enforcement Section of the Neighborhood Services Division—Enforcement of the sanitation code
relating to weeded lots, shrubbery, solid waste in yards and curbside trash. It also includes vector control in the
storm drainage system, sanitary sewers (manholes), and along creek beds.

Best Management Practices (BMPs) for Public Education and Outreach
8.1(a) Describe Target Pollutants, Sources, and Audiences: The Stormwater Division uses three resources
to identify and target pollutants of concern within local waterways of Winston-Salem: regulatory
requirements, fixed interval stream sampling, and historical illicit discharge detection and elimination
reports. Regulatory requirements are derived from Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL)that the City
of Winston Salem must reduce waste load allocations to Muddy and Salem Creeks (currently, the High
Rock Lake TMDL is pending). For the Muddy Creek TMDL, the pollutant of concern is turbidity(i.e.,
TSS). Most probable sources of turbidity(TSS) loading include construction sites, in-stream channel
erosion, and active construction sites. Fecal coliform is the pollutant of concern from Salem Creek
Watershed. Bacterial source tracking (BST) confirmed that sanitary sewer overflows,pet waste, and
wildlife populations contribute to fecal coliform pollution. Once the High Rock Lake TMDL is
approved, nutrients will be targeting pollutants of concern. Fecal coliform and turbidity pollution
degrade biotic integrity, thus impairing the reproduction cycle of aquatic life within streams.
The Stormwater Division performs quarterly, fixed interval sampling to determine pollutant
exceedances (when compared to Water Quality Redbook Standards) within streams. Since samples are
collected during various weather conditions (e.g., dry, during, and post storm event), an accurate
assessment of target pollutants has been established. Since 2019, the Stormwater Division has
observed City-wide trending sample data that consistently shows evaluated concentrations of numerous
pollutants. These pollutants of concern consist of turbidity(i.e., TSS), fecal coliform, and nutrients
15

(i.e., total nitrogen, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, total phosphorus, and dissolved phosphorus). Probable
sources of nutrient exportation include excessive residential and commercial fertilizer applications,
sanitary sewer overflows, atmospheric deposition on impervious surfaces, industrial facilities, and
commercial car-washing activities. Nutrient loading depletes available dissolved oxygen
concentrations for aquatic life due to excessive algal blooms, thus affecting water resources. Scientific
research has proven that litter and debris transport nutrients within our waterways. Litter and debris
can also serve as surrogates for other pollutants due to being more visible and tangible to the public.
Historical illicit discharge detection and elimination(IDDE) reports indicate that hydrocarbon oil and
grease is the most frequently released pollutant of concern within the City of Winston-Salem.
Automobile repair businesses, car salvage facilities, nonpoint oil spills/leaks on public streets,
industrial entities, and commercial car-washing operations are sources of oil and grease pollution. Oil
and grease float on the stream surface and obstruct sunlight into the water column, which is needed by
aquatic fauna and flora. In addition, hydrocarbon oil and grease damage riverine habitat and sensitive
spawning areas due soil adsorption. Since contaminated soil particles settle at the bottom of spawning
beds, fish cannot reproduce and eventually, vanish from the stream.
Stormwater staff determined that increased educational efforts were warranted concerning fats, oils,
and cooking grease (FOG), since the Stormwater Division experienced a significant upward trend of
IDDE incidents during FY 2022-2023. The commonality of FOG releases was due to poor
housekeeping practices at various food service establishments (FSE) throughout the City of Winston
Salem. The Senior Community Educator developed a waterproof poster of acceptable BMPs for
restaurant employees to follow, thus the expected outcome of changing one's mindset of dumping spent
cooking oil into the MS4. The posters were given to the Forsyth County Department of Health staff and
the Utilities Industrial Waste Control Chemist for distribution purposes. This rugged waterproof poster
can be placed near grease rendering bins for restaurant employees' ease of reference, in hopes of
reducing or eliminating spills. All proper disposal BMPs are printed in English, Spanish, and Mandarin
languages for effectively conveying information; the Stormwater Division provided its Stormwater
Pollution Hotline phone number, in the event FOG reaches the City's stormwater conveyance system or
receiving streams.
The Stormwater Division has identified numerous audiences for public outreach and education
activities due to their potential risk of releasing targeted pollutants. Residents use lawn care products,
dispose of household hazardous waste, own pets, and perform routine maintenance on their cars.
Materials have been developed targeting residents to educate them about lawn care, household
hazardous waste disposal, pet waste, and automotive maintenance. Programs or workshops, such as
Carolina Yards &Neighborhoods, address fertilizer and pesticide usage and pet waste. Other materials
have been developed to address automotive maintenance for businesses and stormwater volunteer
opportunities. The Hispanic population is a growing segment within the City of Winston-Salem.
General stormwater pollution information has been developed for this demographic as well as
translations of current outreach materials to reach the Hispanic community in Winston-Salem. School-
age children participate in Creek Crawls, an in-stream learning-experience concerning water quality
issues and the difference between healthy and impaired streams. The overall goal from extensive
school-age children education is to influence adult behavior, thus eliminating pollution-enhancing
practices. A Stormwater Inspector performs industrial inspections and assessments on prioritized,
permitted facilities; these inspections concentrate on pollution prevention and good housekeeping
16

measures, which curtail exposure of pollutants to rainwater. Erosion Control staff performs face-to-
face informal meetings to discuss and implement corrective measures for containing sediment on-site.
The Stormwater Division works in collaborative efforts with Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Utilities
to reduce sanitary sewer overflows and leaks by utilizing utility mailers, social media and press
releases.
8.1(c) Informational Web Site: The Stormwater Division operates and maintains an informative website,
https://www.cityofws.org/Stormwater, to achieve a heightened awareness of stormwater-related issues
and/or events. Information is reviewed and updated as needed every three months or upon a significant
event or issue. The Senior Community Educator promotes the website at presentations, media releases,
or posting the web address on distributed public educational materials. Topics for web postings range
from pollutant `factoids' to public involvement opportunities. The Stormwater and Erosion Control
Divisions have publicized its contact information and the Stormwater Hotline/Helpline (CityLink) on
the City of Winston-Salem's main webpage. Once on the City's homepage, a citizen can locate staff
member's name, e-mail address, and telephone number within four clicks of a computer mouse. The
contact information for CityLink is located at the bottom of every city webpage and at the top of the
Stormwater and Erosion Control Divisions' webpages.
8.1(d) Distribute Public Education Materials to Identified User Groups: The City of Winston Salem
distributes public educational materials that directly relates to specific, targeted audiences. The City
creates communicative information for ranked pollutants of concern, such as floatables, fecal coliforms,
oil and grease, sediment (i.e., total suspended solids), and nutrients. Educational materials (and
opportunities) include brochures (paper and electronic),presentations, TV advertisements, social media
posts, workshops, community events, and targeted mailings. The City of Winston-Salem performs
mass media outreach activities throughout the local area works in conjunction with the Piedmont Triad
Regional Council (via Stormwater SMART). Stormwater SMART develops TV and radio public
service announcements, social media posts, digital advertisements, and brochures (paper and electronic)
to supplement the City's own education and outreach efforts. To ensure the maximum educational
effectiveness, the City correlates the informative technique to the targeted audience. For example, best
management practices brochures are written in Spanish for Hispanic automobile repair shops, and FOG
posters were translated into English, Spanish, and Mandarin.
8.1(e) Promote and Maintain a Stormwater Hotline/Helpline: In 2005, City Council commissioned the
creation and implementation of a centralized telephone call center/web-based complaint hotline for the
citizens of the City of Winston-Salem. Known to the public as CityLink, this communication center
receives citizen-generated e-mails or telephone calls regarding stormwater-related items illicit within
the City. The public can access CityLink from the city of Winston-Salem's homepage of
https://www.cityofws.org/; the CityLink button appears at the top portion of the City's homepage and
the CityLink contact information appears at the bottom of all City webpages. On the Stormwater
Division's homepage on the city website, the CityLink contact information is provided at the top of the
page. The Senior Community Educator receives electronic notifications for presentation requests from
CityLink or directly from website requests. Illicit discharges are received through the Stormwater
Pollution Hotline [phone]), which is operated by CityLink. CityLink refers all illicit discharge
complaints to Stormwater staff, who will investigate these reports within 24 hours.

8.1(0 Implement a Public Education and Outreach Program: The Senior Community Educator records
the reach and extend of all educational outreach activities during the active permit year. As a
component of the annual program assessment, the Senior Community Educator evaluates each
educational approach that was used to reach targeted audiences. If needed, educational techniques or
methodologies are modified for maximizing the greatest reach for the upcoming permit year.

9.1(a) Volunteer Community Involvement Program: The City of Winston-Salem has implemented the
following programs to various degrees to promote volunteer opportunities and ongoing citizen participation:
• Creek Week is a week-long series of events geared to engage the public and support water
quality awareness. Events usually include Creek Crawls, guided paddles and nature walks,
lunch and learn presentations, a community read and book discussion,professional development
workshops, homeowner and resident workshops, special children and teen's programs at the
public libraries, community clean-ups, water centered recreational activities, and other
interactive programs. Creek Week occurred in March and organized by a committee of
municipal, county, and non-profit organizations.
• Creek Crawls are held with local school classes where the students visit a nearby creek to
examine the water quality of the stream using water quality test kits and visual observations.
Benthic macroinvertebrates are collected, examined, and discussed as to form an overall
assessment of the water quality of the selected stream. Students are taught to collect water
samples and to identify the macroinvertebrates collected based on provided keys as part of this
`hands on' approach.
• The Stormwater Division supports the Adopt-A-Stream Program with Keep Winston-Salem
Beautiful to reduce litter, debris, and floatables in our waterways. Homeowner associations,
companies, special interest groups, families, or other interested parties can request to Adopt-A-
Stream in their area of interest. Interested parties will commit to conducting three clean-ups per
year and the City will provide signage and debris removal after each cleanup. Keep Winston-
Salem Beautiful also coordinates Adopt-A-Street and Adopt-A-Park Programs to reduce litter,
debris, and floatables in our community.
• Big Sweep is conducted every year in October to remove trash and debris from local waterways.
• The Great American Clean-Up in Winston-Salem is conducted every year in April to remove
trash and debris from local streets, parks, and waterways.
• The Stormwater Division coordinates and oversees the Storm Drain Marking Program where
volunteer groups place adhesive 'No Dumping, Drains to Creek' markers. Field Operations at
City Yard aide in this programmatic function by placing markers at frequently cleaned storm
drain locations.
9.1(b) Establish a Mechanism for Public Involvement: The City of Winston-Salem has three main
mechanisms for public input on stormwater issues and input on the stormwater management program:
City Council Committee meetings, Stormwater Appeals Board, and the City Link `suggestion and
comment' service request. The City Council has established committee level meetings that citizens are
invited to attend to discuss topics, including stormwater management issues. The City Council
committee hears citizen input concerning stormwater management issues, as a result of the Public
Works Committee's open comment period. Public Works Committee meetings are advertised on the
City's website and are held the second Tuesday of every month. The Stormwater Appeals Board has
been created to hear appeals if an owner, developer, engineer, or other party disagrees with the decision
of staff City Link has instituted a citizen"suggestion and comment" service request that allows any
citizen to suggest or comment, which relates to the Stormwater Management Program. These
suggestions or comments are forwarded to the Department Head for review and action, if necessary.
21

9.1(c) Establish Hotline(s) or Helpline(s): In 2005, City Council commissioned the creation and
implementation of a centralized telephone call center/web-based complaint hotline for the citizens of
the City of Winston-Salem. Known to the public as CityLink, this communication center receives
citizen-generated e-mails or telephone calls regarding stormwater-related items illicit within the
municipal boundaries of Winston-Salem. The public can access CityLink from the City of Winston-
Salem's homepage of https://www.cityofws.org/; the CityLink button appears at the top portion of the
City's homepage and the CityLink contact information appears at the bottom of all City webpages. On
the Stormwater Division's homepage on the city website, the CityLink contact information is provided
at the top of the page. The Senior Community Educator receives electronic notifications for
presentation requests from CityLink or directly from website requests. Illicit discharges are received
through the Stormwater Pollution Hotline [phone]), which is operated by CityLink. CityLink
refers all illicit discharge complaints to the appropriate Stormwater staff members, who will investigate
these reports within 24 hours (except on the weekends).
9.1(d) Public Review and Comment: Copies of the City's Stormwater Management Plan are available for
public comment on its website located at https://www.cityofws.org/Stormwater.
9.1(e) Public Notice: The City of Winston-Salem will comply with applicable public notice requirements
when implementing a public involvement and participation program. Compliance with 40 CFR 122.34
is achieved by working with the City Secretary's Office, Marketing and Communications and the
Community Assistance Specialist for scheduling, advertising, and posting public meetings.
9.2 Public Involvement and Participation Annual Reporting Task Items for FY 2023-2024:
1. The Senior Community Educator is providing a summary of all completed educational,
volunteer, and public participation activities (with corresponding workload data):
a. The Stormwater Division initiated and celebrated the twelfth annual Forsyth Creek Week

Best Management Practices (BMPs) for Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination:
10.1(a) Maintain Appropriate Legal Authorities: The City of Winston-Salem has an illicit discharge,
connection, and disposal ordinance that regulates the introduction of illegal pollutants to the City's
MS4 and receiving streams. The ordinance was adopted by City Council in 2006. Stormwater staff
possesses adequate regulatory authority to provide enforcement actions, which include enforcement
mechanisms, such as issuance of notice of violations, levy civil penalties, and issue stop work orders.
One can reference the City's Stormwater Illicit Discharges and Connection Ordinance, Chapter 75, at
ARTICLE I. ILLICIT STORMWATER DISCHARGES AND CONNECTIONS
10.1(b) Maintain a Storm Sewer System Base Map: The City of Winston-Salem has entered into a
professional services contract with HDR Engineering for major outfall identification as well as
creation of a comprehensive stormwater system inventory. For FY 2023-2024, HDR finished the
City's major stormwater discharge outfall inventory assessment.
25

10.1(c) Inspect/Detect Dry Weather Flows at MS4 Outfalls in Targeted Areas: Illicit discharge detection
and elimination procedures are contained within the Stormwater IDDE manual, which was last revised
in August 2024. The Stormwater Division's current standard operating procedures (SOPs) are based
on the Center of Watershed Protection's 2004 technical manual. Staff has modified these SOPs for
functionality and cost-effectiveness, as new technology and funding become available, the Stormwater
Division will update and adopt new practices, as needed. In FY 2023-2024, HDR completed the
City's dry weather screening of new and existing major outfalls as well as stream-walk selected stream
segments in the Salem Creek, Peters Creek, Silas Creek, and Muddy Creek Watersheds, which were
prioritized due elevated concentrations of fecal coliforms and total suspended solids. Stormwater staff
tracked, identified, and eliminated all known illicit discharges. Stormwater staff collected dry weather
water samples from outfalls and analyzed for ammonia, nitrate, pH, conductivity, fluoride, surfactants,
and fecal coliforms to identify pollutant sources.
10.1(d) Employee Training: The Senior Community Educator distributes a web-based power point
presentation and booklet to all current and new municipal employees (pertinent field staff) in order to
increase the success rate of detecting illicit discharges to the MS4/receiving waters. All new
municipal employees, who are not in administrative positions, are required to review a web-based
power point presentation and booklet regarding IDDE detection and reporting during orientation.
During FY 2023-2024, Marketing and Communications and Stormwater staff created and
implemented an educational video regarding proper pollution prevention and goodhousekeeping
practices for current City employees. All City employees were required to watch this video and
answer six quiz questions -the city achieved an overall 76.3 participation percentage. Moving
forward, all current City employees will be required to watch the PP & MGH video on an annual
basis, if possible.
10.1(e) Maintain a Public Reporting Mechanism: Stormwater staff will continue working with the IS
department for maintaining the most current up-to-date information that can be accessed on our city
website in order to keep the public informed. The reporting mechanism that the Stormwater Division
uses is called CityLink. Once known of the reported issue, staff has 24 hours to respond accordingly
to the reported situation. When CityLink receives an issue, the Assistant Director, Stormwater
Operations Supervisor, and Stormwater Analyst receive an automated notification from CityLink.
From there, management assigns staff accordingly to respond within the allotted period.
10.1(f) Documentation of IDDE Activities: When staff investigates an illicit discharge activity, a discharge
report is developed and filed by the investigating staff member, regardless of the outcome. If an illicit
activity is discovered, staff prepares a Notice of Violation (NOV), as per the requirements of Chapter
75-11 of the City Code. The NOV is sent to the violator(s) via certified mail or signature verified
delivery by staff. The NOV clearly states the violation, as well as any abatement activities required by
the City. Upon successful completion of abatement activities by the violator, a notification is sent
stating that the illicit activity has been resolved. Staff records all electronic copies of all
correspondence,photos, mapping, civil penalty assessments, and sampling results pertaining to the
IDDE activity for future reference. Staff documents all IDDE incidents on an spreadsheet as well as a
NOV/IDDE GIS layer for accurately tracking elimination activities. The City's Citizen Service
Request (CSR) system is the main documentation source to bridge the communication gap between
Stormwater staff and citizens. From there, citizens can call CityLink and receive information updates.
26

10.2 Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Annual Reporting Task Items for FY 2023 —2024:
1. HDR performed dry weather screening of major stormwater outfalls within Salem Creek, Silas Creek,
Muddy Creek, and Peters Creek Watersheds, as a component of the city's comprehensive MS4
inventory update. As of June 30, 2024, HDR Engineering staff has evaluated 33 major stormwater
outfalls out of the estimated total 1,717 outfalls.
2. Stormwater staff responded to 62 illicit discharges/cases, which resulted in 11 Notices of Violations
(NOVs)being issued. 55 percent of issued NOVs were permanently and successfully resolved within 30
days of initial violation issuance; 27 percent of NOVs were resolved within 60 days. As of October
2024, 100 percent of all IDDE cases have been successfully resolved for FY 2023-2024.
3. As part of the masterplan inventory update, HDR staff stream-walked a total of 4.7 miles of local
waterways within the City of Winston-Salem to identify dry weather illicit discharges as well as
performing major stormwater discharge outfall reconnaissance activities.
4. As part of the city's Good Housekeeping and Pollution prevention programs, new city employees were
trained to identify and report illicit discharges. During FY 2023-2024, a total of 839 new city
employees were trained in IDDE detection and notification methods.
5. Stormwater staff continues to support the Senior Community Educator with public educational efforts
regarding illicit discharge information. For FY 2023-2024, Stormwater Field Operations staff
distributed 86 educational materials regarding illicit dumping to residences throughout Winston-Salem.
6. The Stormwater Division received 17 citizen response requests concerning illicit discharges through
CityLink—all complaints were successfully resolved by the specified due date.
7. Stormwater staff performs quarterly stream sampling at 39 locations to detect any active illicit
discharges. The Stormwater Division collected and analyzed a total number of 8,912 pollutant
parameters for detecting illicit discharges—no illicit discharges were detected and eliminated due to this
water quality regime.
8. Staff will use instanteous multiparameter meters for early detection of sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs)
and failing septic systems. The Stormwater Division collected and analyzed a total of 4,390 pollutant
parameters—no SSOs and zero failed septic systems were detected and eliminated.
9. As a component of the permit effectiveness evaluation, the Stormwater Operations Supervisor assessed
divisional IDDE Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). The results of this evaluation showed that all
SOPs are currently up to date as of August 8, 2024.
10. Stormwater staff marked storm drain catch basins with permanent stickers and spray paint signage at
IDDE locations. During FY 2023-2024, Stormwater Division marked a total of nine stormwater catch
basins for increasing the public's heightened awareness. Stormwater catch basin marker information is
located at G:\Techn_Projects_Files\Education_Outreach\Doorhangers_StormdrainMarkers.xlsx
11. During FY 2023-2024, Stormwater staff notified DEQ, Winston-Salem Regional Office of one fish kill
due to illicit discharges with local streams. In addition, no incidents of petroleum sheens were observed
by Stormwater staff and reported to the Winston-Salem Regional Office of DEQ.

11. CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROLS
Objectives:
1. Reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff from construction activities disturbing one or more acres
of land surface and those activities less than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of
development.
2. Provide procedures for public input, sanctions to ensure permit compliance, requirements for
construction site operators to implement appropriate erosion and sediment control practices,
review of site plans, which incorporates consideration of potential water quality impacts, and
procedures for site inspection and enforcement of control measures.
3. A locally delegated program that meets or exceeds the state requirements covering the
jurisdictional area of the permittee complies with the required minimum of this section.
4. The City of Winston-Salem has been delegated by NCDEQ-DEMLR to establish a local erosion
and sedimentation control program to administer the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of
1973; stormwater NPDES permit requirements will be fulfilled using this existing program.
Grading permits are required for land disturbing activities that are greater than(or equal to)
20,000 square feet for new single-family dwelling construction(or part of a larger common plan
of development) or greater than 10,000 (or equal to) square feet for any non-exempt purpose (or
part of a larger common plan of development). For single-family dwelling sites under 20,000
square feet(and not in a larger common plan of development), an executed erosion control
affidavit is mandated, which stipulates the installation of minimal erosion control measures to
prevent off-site sedimentation.

11.1(a) Erosion and Sediment Control Program: The Erosion Control Section of the City of Winston-
Salem's Field Operations Department require erosion and sediment control measures at construction
sites. Chapter 8, Section 8.4 of the Unified Development Ordinance regulates land disturbing
activities within Forsyth County's boundaries (this includes the City of Winston-Salem). For
additional information regarding the City's Sediment and Erosion Control Ordinance,please visit this
link: Chapter 8, Section 8.4.
11.1(b) Plan Review Process: Chapter 8, Section 8.4 of the Unified Development Code, Section 8.4.4 (A.)
states that no person shall initiate any land disturbing activity upon a tract without having an erosion
control plan approved by the Director or a designee and without having purchased the applicable
permit through the Inspections Division office. Section 3.2.7 (A.) states that any area exceeding
20,000 square feet in surface area on one tract for construction of a single-family dwelling or 10,000
square feet on one tract for any other non-exempt purpose must be permitted. To be permitted,
Section 8.4.4 (A.) mandates the creation and submittal of an erosion control plan, Section 8.4.17
provides the submittal standards and criteria of erosion, and sedimentation control plans to be
reviewed, approved, and installed. When finalized, development plans are submitted to the City of
Winston-Salem for permit approval of land disturbing activities; Erosion Control staff determines
regulatory compliance in accordance with the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 and
Chapter 8, Section 8.4 of the City of Winston-Salem Unified Development Ordinance. As a result,
sediment control devices for construction activities are evaluated for capture of 75 percent of the 40-
micron particle and larger.
11.1(c) Field Inspections, Complaint Response, and Enforcement Procedures: Site inspections are
conducted by one of four qualified Erosion Control Inspectors, which are assigned to a specific section
of Forsyth County. One Erosion Control Inspector is solely dedicated to inspecting single family
dwelling erosion control compliance. Inspector responsibilities include plan review and approval,
issuance of grading/erosion control permits for construction activities, conducting on-site inspections,
and performing enforcement actions, when needed. Each inspector conducts approximately ten site
inspections per week; however, the frequency of inspections will increase (as needed) for overall
programmatic compliance.
30

Enforcement action provisions are described in Chapter 8, Section 8.4.20 of the City's Unified
Development Ordinance (Chapter 8). The Erosion Control Section will not issue a grading permit for
a development site unless the sediment and erosion control plan has been approved. Deviation from
the approved plan will result in a Notice of Violation (NOV) issued by the Erosion Control Inspector
with required corrective actions and a compliance due date for completion of corrective actions will be
documented. Mitigation activities are enforced in the event off-site sedimentation damage is observed.
NCDEQ, DEMLR receives a copy of every NOV that is issued by the Erosion Control Section and
NCDEQ, DWR is notified if sedimentation damage is observed to a jurisdictional water body. If the
required corrective actions are not resolved by the compliance due date, a monetary fine, Stop Work
Order, and/or Injunction may be imposed on the developer and/or contractor. In addition, the
Inspections Division may withhold any certificates of occupancy until absolute resolution has been
achieved.
11.1(d) Notification to the Responsible State or Local Government Agencies that have Enforcement
Capabilities for eliminating Construction Site Wastes: During the course of conducting field
inspections, Erosion Control Inspectors assess construction waste practices, specifically, regarding
potential adverse impacts to water quality. If Erosion Control staff determines that a contractor's poor
housekeeping practices possess a threat to water quality, staff will notify the Winston-Salem Regional
Office of NCDEQ, DEMLR, if the site has a NCG01000 permit or located within unincorporated area
of Forsyth County. If the site is located within the jurisdiction of a MS4-permitted entity (e.g.
Clemmons, Lewisville, Kernersville, etc.), the respective stormwater authority is notified. Any
pollutants that are directly (or indirectly) discharged, disposed, or illicitly connected to storm drain
systems (public or private-owned) or streams, which are located within the City of Winston-Salem's
municipal limits, are monitored and enforced by the city's Stormwater Division.
11.1(e) Educational and Training Materials for Construction Site Operators: Erosion Control staff
performs on-site and in-office educational discussions with licensed contractors, design professional,
developers, and the general public as per service requests and/or issuance of violations. These
educational discussions are very interactive and personal. Erosion Control staff provides guidance
resources to contractors, developers, and the public by directing them to the City and NCDEQ-
DEMLR's websites. Erosion Control staff has also compiled and distributes digital technical guidance
and design criteria resources through email or print by request.
11.1(0 Public Information: In 2005, City Council and the City Manager commissioned the creation and
implementation of a centralized telephone call center/web-based complaint hotline for the citizens of
the City of Winston-Salem. Known to the public as CityLink, this communication center receives
citizen-generated e-mails or telephone calls regarding illicit activity within the City or County. The
public can access CityLink on the City of Winston-Salem's homepage of www.Cityofws.org.; it
appears on the bottom portion of the website. The Erosion Control Section has been integrated into the
CityLink system and implemented a response time of three working days.
The Erosion Control Section has publicized its contact information on the City of Winston-Salem's
main webpage. Once on the City's homepage, a citizen can locate each Erosion Control staff member's
name, e-mail address, and telephone number within three clicks of a computer mouse.
31

In addition,by calling 1-866-STOPMUD, citizens can report violations of the Sedimentation Pollution
Control Act of 1973. The Erosion Control Section responds to e-mails and received complaints from
the hotline within three business days of first knowledge.
11.2 Eminent Domain Authority: The Erosion Control Section has an established procedure of requiring
documentation of review and approval of a post-construction stormwater management plan by
NCDEQ, DEMLR for all development activity within Forsyth County. Municipalities that are
excluded from this policy include Winston-Salem, Kernersville, Clemmons, and Lewisville, since each
municipality has its own delegated post-construction stormwater program. This protocol provides
NCDEQ, DEMLR the opportunity to collaborate with the Erosion Control Division concerning the
approval of a post-construction stormwater management plan within the county where no post-
construction stormwater management program exists.
11.3 Construction Site Runoff Control Annual Reporting Task Items for FY 2023 —2024:
1. The Erosion Control Section reviewed all submitted erosion control plans and performed
corresponding onsite inspections to verify compliance. Erosion Control staff reviewed 183
erosion control plans and performed 1,754 onsite inspections for verifying site compliance.
2. The Erosion Control Manager and Assistant Stormwater Director performed a comprehensive
gap analysis of DEMLR's Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Model Ordinance. All
missing language from both State Model Ordinances (dated 2020 and 2021) has been
incorporated into the City/County Unified Development Ordinance, Section 8.4-Erosion Control.
Currently, both Assistant City and County Attorneys are reviewing the Local Model Ordinance
in preparation of performing work sessions with the City of Winston-Salem City Council and
Forsyth County Commissioners.
3. Erosion Control staff issued 36 Notice of Violations (NOVs) during FY 2023-2024. The average
compliance percentage of all active construction sites was 56 percent, which can be attributed to
frequent, intense storm events as well as the record-setting sheer volume of construction within
Winston-Salem/Forsyth County. As a result, Erosion Control Inspectors were unable to perform
as frequent site inspections, thus decreasing the overall average compliance percentage from FY
2023-2024.
4. Erosion Control Inspectors have referred five construction site waste stream issues to the
Winston-Salem Regional Office of NCDEQ, DEMLR(outside the municipal limits of Winston-
Salem) and one to the Stormwater Division (inside city limits) to prevent pollutants from
entering surface waters/MS4.
5. Erosion Control staff successfully resolved a total of 90 illicit sedimentation discharge/release
claims, which are tracked through the City's RockSolid(i.e. Service Request) system, as an
indicator of program effectiveness.

12. POST-CONSTRUCTION SITE RUNOFF CONTROLS
Objectives:
1. Manage stormwater runoff from new development/redevelopment that drains to the MS4 and
disturbs an acre or more of land surface, including projects less than an acre that are part of a
larger common plan of development or sale.
2. Provide a mechanism to require long-term operation and maintenance of SCMs.
3. Ensure controls are in place to minimize water quality impacts.
4. Permittee shall not be required to apply post-construction site runoff controls to entities that are
exempt from permittee's jurisdiction, including entities exempted under N.C.G.S. 113A-56.

12.1(a) Post-Construction Storm Water Management Program: The Stormwater Division oversees and
enforces the city's post-construction stormwater management program. The City of Winston-Salem
has supplemented previous water supply watershed regulations with current post-construction
regulations for Class 'C' waters to address stormwater runoff from new and re-developed sites. The
current Post Construction Stormwater Management ordinance was adopted by the City Council on
September 19, 2008, and this ordinance applies to all development within our jurisdictional area
(municipal boundary). The City's Post-construction Ordinance can be located at
https://library.municode.com/nc/winston-
salem/codes/code of ordinances?nodeld=PTIIICOOR CH75STMA ARTIVPOCOST.
Due to the recent implications of House Bill 488,various text amendments, text additions and
deletions were approved by City Council after a public hearing on September 16, 2024. These include
text amendments to Section 75-203(d), Section 75-402(a), Section 75-402(b), the addition of Section
75-402(c) and deletions and additions to Section 75-404. References to the "Stormwater Appeals
Board"were also removed from the ordinance and replaced with "The Board of Adjustment"who will
now hear and decide on matters such variance requests and approvals and appeals. This created text
revisions and additions to Section 75-203 and Section 75-205.
12.1(b) Strategies,which include SCM's Appropriate for the MS4:
Programs with development/redevelopment draining to Nutrient Sensitive waters:
Drainage from the City of Winston-Salem ultimately flows to the Yadkin River, which is the main
tributary for High Rock Lake. High Rock Lake has been classified as nutrient sensitive and currently
has a TMDL in development for Chlorophyll A and turbidity. Currently, wastewater point sources are
being considered for a waste load allocation(WLA)—not stormwater sources. Structural and non-
structural SCMs will be utilized to address the requirements of 15A NCAC .0126 (10) (e). These
SCMs will provide sediment removal, which ultimately reduces the nutrient inputs to receiving
streams. Proper application and storage of fertilizers is being addressed through a Turf Management
Certification, which is administered by the Stormwater Division and the Forsyth County Cooperative
Extension Service in efforts to reduce nutrient loading to receiving streams.
34

Fecal Coliform Source Control:
The City of Winston-Salem coordinates with the Forsyth County Department of Public Health to
reduce fecal coliform due to failing/or failed septic tank systems. This process requires the property
owner to either connect to the POTW or repair/replace the septic tank system to effective operations.
The City/County Utilities Commission(CCUC)has an extensive capital improvement program to
rehabilitate failing sections of the sewer collection system. Stormwater staff works closely with the
CCUC to resolve sanitary sewer overflows during dry weather screening activities or received citizen
complaints. In addition, the City of Winston-Salem has an enforceable ordinance that requires pet
owners to pick up fecal matter within its municipal boundaries. Section 6-12 in the City of Winston-
Salem's Municode contains the sanitation requirements for picking up dog feces, which is posted at
https://library.municode.com/nc/winston-
salem/codes/code of ordinances?nodeId=PTIIICOOR CH6ANFO S6-12SAREDO.
Non-Structural SCM's:
Currently, the City of Winston-Salem has implemented a comprehensive plan for growth—the Legacy
Development Guide, which was adopted in 2012. Environmental quality is a key subject area, which
is addressed with an objective to protect our local watersheds, wetlands, and streams. The City also
has adopted local water supply watershed protection regulations, as required by NC DWQ. The
Unified Development Ordinance regulates development in the Water Supply watershed areas of the
City of Winston Salem. Development is subject to zoning restrictions, erosion control measures,
floodplain management and low-density development provisions as they pertain to the water quality
criteria of the Post-Construction Stormwater Control Ordinance such as recording of stream buffers
where applicable and use of vegetative conveyances to the maximum extent practicable.
Structural SCM's:
The City of Winston-Salem's Post Construction Stormwater Management ordinance provides sizing
and performance criteria for water quality SCMs. The City of Winston-Salem has also adopted the
State's Stormwater Design Manual as a technical guide for designing structural SCMs within its
jurisdictional area and thus for use in also providing sizing and performance criteria, in combination
with the ordinance provisions. The ordinance addresses both low density and high-density
development scenarios as regards water quality attenuation. Low density developments (less than 24
percent built upon area, or less than two dwelling units per an acre)must meet all the Minimum
Design Criteria(MDC) of the NC DWR Stormwater Design Manual—Low Density Chapter, to the
maximum extent practicable. Such items include but are not limited to recording of stream buffers
where applicable and using vegetative conveyances to the maximum extent practicable. High density
developments (greater than 24 percent built upon area and more than two dwelling units per acre) in
addition to meeting all the low density non-structural SCM requirements, to the maximum extent
practicable, must also provide structural SCM's. Any SCM or combination of SCM's that are
considered primary SCMs per the Stormwater Design Manual and that can be effectively constructed
in the Piedmont physiographic region may be approved by the Stormwater Engineer. In addition, the
Post Construction Stormwater Management ordinance also includes a local requirement for water
quantity standards if a development creates more than 20,000 square feet of new impervious area. If
that is the case a development must either, (a) design structural SCMs to mitigate detrimental
downstream effects of flooding and erosion in various design storm events, or in lieu of management
35

provide a"no adverse impact downstream study"if indeed a no adverse impact situation can be
proven.
12.1(c) Deed Restrictions and Protective Covenants: The City of Winston-Salem, as previously mentioned,
created, adopted, and implemented its post-construction ordinance on September 19, 2008. This
ordinance includes comprehensive regulatory procedures to ensure compliance. Right of entry
drainage and access easements must be granted to the City to inspect, monitor, maintain, repair, or to
reconstruct the stormwater management system as necessary and these easements are referenced in the
recorded Operation and Maintenance Agreements. Notice of violations, remedies, and monetary
penalties are examples of regulatory tools contained within the post-construction ordinance that the
Stormwater Division utilizes as enforcement mechanisms. For further reference, the City's Post-
construction Stormwater Control Ordinance (Chapter 75, Article IV) can be located at this link:
https://library.municode.com/nc/winston-
salem/codes/code of ordinances?nodeld=PTIIICOOR CH75STMA ARTIVPOCOST
12.1(d) Operation and Maintenance Plan: Stormwater staff inspect approved water quantity SCMs (pre-
2008 post-construction ordinance adoption) as well as the Salem Lake Watershed(Water Supply IV
Classification) SCMs on an annual basis. Next, Stormwater staff informs the owners of record of any
deficiencies noted so that they may be addressed. Operation and Maintenance Agreements are
required to be approved, recorded, and implemented for all the developments located within the Salem
Lake Watershed area that require SCM(s) and the owners of such SCMs are bound to the terms of that
agreement.
The Planning Department maintains a spreadsheet that tracks all the developments and
redevelopments that have been submitted to the Stormwater Division for review and compliance with
the Post-construction Stormwater Management Ordinance. This spreadsheet includes a list of the
development names, whether they are exempt from the ordinance and if exempt an explanation of why
so, and if they are not exempt a description of what provisions of the ordinance they had to meet as in
water quality—(low or high density), or water quantity, or both. This spreadsheet contains pertinent
information, such as project submittal, review notes, date of permit issuance with corresponding
number, the owners contact information of the stormwater management system, what developments
we are currently still waiting on for as-built records to be submitted, what developments have
submitted as-builts and hence are subject to submitting annual inspection and maintenance records,
etc., so that Stormwater staff can efficiently check or reference any development and its criteria that
may have been permitted, since the ordinance was adopted. The City also maintains "hard" files for
all projects listed in this spreadsheet.
SCMs, within the City limits jurisdiction and approved after the adoption of the post-construction
ordinance, must have an Operation and Maintenance Agreement recorded as part of the post
construction permit process that is binding on the SCM owner. The responsibility of SCM inspection
and maintenance is placed on the designated SCM owner, or Homeowners Association/Property
Owners Association, as applicable, who has signed the recorded Operation and Maintenance
Agreement. The requirements for such inspections and maintenance are outlined in an Operation and
Maintenance Manual that forms part of the overall Operation and Maintenance Agreement. Beginning
after the certification of the as-built drawings for a permitted stormwater management system, the
36

system must be inspected per the frequency described in this agreement by a suitably qualified
professional on behalf of the owner. The owner must keep all records of these inspections and any
maintenance activities that may have been necessary and submit these records to the Stormwater
Director for review on an annual basis. The Stormwater Director or his designee may carry out his
own inspection to validate such submitted records.
Developers of all structural SCMs approved in accordance with the Post-Construction Stormwater
Management ordinance must provide a signed and notarized financial disclosure statement to the
Stormwater Division as part of the permitting process. The developer in this statement agrees to set
aside funds in an account, which will be held and controlled by the developer, that equal 10% of the
construction cost of the SCM(s). These funds shall be set aside within 5 years of the completion of
construction of the SCM's and the account and funds within it are to be used exclusively for the
operation and maintenance of the SCM(s).
The City also requires performance bonding or other cash securities, in accordance with the Salem
Lake Watershed Environmental ordinance provisions, on SCMs proposed and located within the
Salem Lake Water Supply Watershed area.
12.1(e) Educational materials and training for developers: Multiple training and information sessions were
provided by Stormwater Division staff prior to and after the ordinance implementation in 2008.
Educational materials provided include a permit application flowchart, example of design calculations
and other supplementary information such as Operation and Maintenance Manual templates. These
are available on the Stormwater Divisions website. The Stormwater Engineer and if needed the
Stormwater Director, also make themselves regularly available to meet with developers at their request
on an individual basis if they need guidance on permit policies and procedures before applying for a
permit. The Stormwater Engineer is also a member of the City's Technical Review Committee (TRC)
and attends in person meetings held on a weekly and monthly basis to explain the Post-construction
Stormwater Management permitting process to applicants looking to develop or redevelop property
within the City limits and Salem Lake Watershed. The Stormwater Engineer has on average three
such meetings (individual plus TRC combined) on a weekly basis. The Stormwater Engineer fulfills
multiple meetings and information requests from developers, owners, and citizens either by phone or
e-mail on a weekly basis outside of the in-person meetings.
The City maintains a website on the Stormwater Divisions webpage that addresses the city's post-
construction permitting process as well as development requirements within the regulated Salem Lake
Watershed area. This website is used as an educational tool available to all developers and SCM
owners. The website contains items such as, a link to the Post Construction Stormwater Management
ordinance, a link to the NC DWR Stormwater Design Manual website, the permit flow chart, a link to
the permit application and checklists for submittal, templates for Operation and Maintenance
Agreements and Manuals, design examples or SCMs, templates for inspections and annual compliance
reports, a link to the electronic review submittal system and also a detailed FAQ section that attempts
to address most, if not all of the questions that developers and SCM owners typically have. This
website may be found at https://www.cityofws.org/794/Post-Construction-Stormwater-Management.
37

12.2 Post-Construction Annual Reporting Task Items for FY 2023 —2024:
1. The Stormwater Division has inspected 259 water quantity control SCMs during the past permit
year. Please note: These devices were constructed prior to the adoption of the post-construction
ordinance. These SCMs mainly consist of dry detention basins.
a. The number of SCMs that are categorized as `poor' = 7 (2.7%)
b. The number of SCMs that are categorized with minor issues =46 (17.8%)
c. The number of SCMs with no deficiencies=206 (79.5%)
2. Between implementation of the Post-construction Stormwater Control Ordinance in September
2008 and up to the end of this current permit period, the Stormwater Division has permitted a
variety of structural SCMs that were required for high density developments under the water
quality provisions of the ordinance as well as meeting the ordinance quantity provisions. Please
note that as per Section 12.5 these stormwater management systems are inspected and
maintained by the owners' qualified representatives with records of such inspections and
maintenance activities submitted annually to the Field Operations Director. The SCMs permitted
along with the number of the SCMs are as follows:
a.Wet Detention Basins= 77
b.Sand Filters =69
c.Bio-Retention Cells =29
d.Stormwater Constructed Wetlands = 1
e.Contech Storm Filter Systems= 10
f.Bay Filter System= 15
g.Infiltration Trench or other such Systems= 7
h.Permeable Pavement System= 5
i.Dry Detention Basins/Underground Management Systems= 90
j.Filterra Units= 1
In addition to these high-density developments in the same period, the Stormwater Division has
also issued 121 permits for developments that were considered low density under the water
quality provisions of the ordinance. No structural SCMs were therefore required,but these
developments still had to meet the low-density provisions of the ordinance and the Stormwater
design manual low density minimum design criteria.
3. During Permit Year of 2023 —2024, the following information summarizes post-construction
activities performed by the Stormwater Division:
a. The number of plans reviewed= 61
b. The number of developments requiring water quality SCMs= 15
c. The number of developments requiring water quantity SCMs= 17
d. The number of no adverse impact studies submitted in lieu of management for quantity
control= 7
e. The number of developments meeting the ordinance water quality provision exemptions
=29
f. The number of developments meeting the ordinance water quantity provision exemptions
= 33
38

g. The number of developments grandfathered from the ordinance provisions based on a
prior plan approval issued before the ordinance implementation in 2008, or, covered
under a master stormwater management plan submitted and approved, since the
ordinance implementation= 1
h. The number of low-density projects=13
i. The number of high-density projects= 15
j. Sum of water quality SCMs= 19 (4 Sand Filters, 9 Wet Detention Basins, 3 Bay Filter
Systems, 1 Infiltration System, 1 Bio-Retention Cell and 1 Contech Filter Systems)
4. Sum of water quantity SCMs =22 (9 Wet Detention Basins, 4 Sand Filters, 4 Underground
Management Systems, 1 Bio-Retention Cell, 1 Infiltration System and 3 Dry Detention Basins).
5. The Stormwater Engineer maintained a comprehensive inventory of municipally owned SCMs
during FY 2023-2024. The last update to the inventory spreadsheet was October 11, 2024.
Please reference Appendix G of this spreadsheet for detailed, site-specific information regarding
the City's SCMs.
6. The City Attorney's Office was consulted concerning the potential to create a preliminary flow-
process for executing municipal-owned SCM Operation and Maintenance Agreements and
maintenance responsibilities. As of October 2024, no direction has been forthcoming from the
City's Attorney's Office on this flow process. It should be noted that there has been a lot of staff
turnover in the City Attorney's Office since 2022. Once direction is provided and finalized, the
City's SCM Manual for municipal operations will be finished by the Stormwater Engineer.

13.1(a) Inventory of Municipal Facilities and Operations: In 2020, the Stormwater Division performed an
inclusive assessment of municipal facilities/operations that have a significant potential for generating
polluted stormwater runoff. Subsequently, staff prioritized these municipal operations for SWPPP
creation and implementation due to the magnitude and nature of activities that each municipal
operation provides to the public. Since that time, the Stormwater Division provides professional
services to City entities to create and implement BMPs for mitigating or eliminating exposure of
pollutants to stormwater runoff. The following tables provide an overview of the City's progression in
reducing stormwater pollution from municipal operations, as of November 23, 2020.

Best Management Practices for Pollution Prevention and Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations:
13.1(b) Inspection and Maintenance Program for Municipal Facilities and Operations: The Stormwater
Division has been conducting good housekeeping inspections of municipal facilities/operations since
January 2004. The Stormwater Inspector prioritizes municipal facilities for an inspection ranking
(annual frequency),based upon internal evaluation criteria, such as site size, nature of operation
business practices, chemical or product quantities and/or toxicity, spill history, general permit issuance
or status, etc. Once the inspection ranking list is finalized, the Stormwater Inspector evaluates the
potential of each municipal facility or operation to generate potential pollutants. If the municipal
facility/operation has been issued a general stormwater permit, the Stormwater Inspector determines
onsite conditions and SPPP compliance with permit requirements. Basic municipal operations or
facilities receive an abbreviated stormwater pollution plan, which concentrates on facility inspections,
spill response procedures, general site maps, and employee training. If needed, the Stormwater
Inspector refers the municipal facility to a qualified consultant for creation of a spill prevention,
control, and counter measure plan (SPCC), which complements SPPP requirements (but not to
replace). The inspection process focuses on current best management practices (BMPs) of
chemical/substances (e.g. salt, gasoline, soil, etc.) storage, waste disposal, outdoor processes (e.g.
vehicle and equipment washing), material un/loading, and automotive-related activities. In addition,
Stormwater staff evaluates the effectiveness of structural BMPs, stormwater discharge outfall(s)
condition, off-site erosion, and recommends corrective measures and/or BMP implementation
(nonstructural or structural) for the facility. All generated inspection reports are posted on an internal
shared drive as well as hard copies that are delivered to the Field Operations Director, Mr. Keith Huff.
The Stormwater Division retains an electronic copy and hard copies of completed inspection forms.
43

Once corrective measures have been installed or implemented, stormwater personnel verify BMP
effectiveness. The last comprehensive revision to the city's municipal inventory database was
completed in June 2022; an update was finalized by the Stormwater Division during FY 2023-2024
and is located at(G:\Industrial Inspection&Municipal Goodhousekeeping\MGH&PP
Program\Municipal Facilities\Master Municipal.xlsx
13.1(c) Site Pollution Prevention Plans for Municipal Facilities and Operations: The Stormwater Division
has identified 83 municipal facilities/operations that have the significant potential for generating
polluted stormwater runoff. As of June 30, 2024, 62 municipal facilities/operations have implemented
stormwater pollution prevention plans (SPPPs)to remove pollutant exposure to stormwater runoff
(Tables 13.2 and 13.3). 21 municipal facilities/operations have been designated for site pollution
assessments/inspections with SWPPP creation and implementation, if needed(Table 13.4). The
Lowery Street Complex will be evaluated for vehicle-washing BMPs during the coming permit years.
(G:\Industrial Inspection& Municipal Goodhousekeeping\MGH&PP Program\Municipal
Facilities\Master Municipal.xlsx)
13.1(d) Spill Response Procedures for Municipal Facilities and Operations: For municipally owned
facilities that are not required to apply for a NPDES stormwater permit, an abbreviated SWPPP has
been created and implemented by City staff. A key component of this abbreviated SWPPP is spill
prevention and response plan and procedures that are site-specific. SPPPs include site maps, facility
inspections, GH and PM schedule, and SPPP certification. All SPPPs have site maps, facility
inspections, good housekeeping and preventive maintenance schedule along with a SPPP certification.
Each municipal operation/facility performs spill response training on an annual basis. Table 13.3
contains a list of municipal facilities/operations that have implemented an abbreviated SPPP.
13.1(e) Prevent or Minimize Contamination of Stormwater Runoff from all areas used for Vehicle and
Equipment Cleaning: Upon inspection of each municipal facility or operation, structural and
nonstructural BMPs are recommended for implementation. Stormwater staff promotes
vehicle/equipment washing at the Lowery Street Complex. These washing bays discharge into an oil
and water separator, which is connected into the sanitary sewer. Parking lots for abandoned vehicles
will be evaluated for installation of an oil and water separator. If BMPs cannot be installed, the
vehicle-washing activities will be performed in accordance with NPDES requirements; selected BMPs
will be incorporated into an abbreviated SWPPP to reflect on-site practices and measures.
13.1 (f) Streets,Roads, and Public Parking Lots Maintenance: The Sanitation Department performs
monthly, at a minimum, street sweeping events at the top four identified municipally-owned facilities
with potential pollutants, since December 2021. These facilities include Fleet Services, Winston-
Salem Transit Authority, the Sanitation Garbage Truck Parking Lot, and Streets Operations Truck and
Stockpile Yard. Selected BMPs for potential implementation include other identified municipal
facilities for street sweeping activities, enhanced MS4 trash and sediment removal due to procurement
of new jet truck equipment, future issuance of condensed spill response plans and procedures for
municipal facilities that have the potential of hydrocarbon releases, and the generation and adoption of
a capital improvement plan for repair or rehabilitation activities for municipally-owned stormwater
control measures, which receive inputs from public streets and roads.
44

13.1(g) Inspection and Maintenance (I&M) for Municipally-owned or Maintained Stormwater Control
Measures (SCMs) and the Storm Sewer System: City Yard Field Operations has developed and
implemented a comprehensive operation and maintenance (O&M)program for structural BMPs as
well as the MS4. This O&M Program includes (but not limited to)these activities:
• Street(right-of-way) structure maintenance (pipes and catch basins)—the Field Operations
processes an average of 870 service requests annually resulting in over 1,835 work orders each
year. These work orders address a wide variety of maintenance tasks from inlet cleaning to ditch
reshaping to structural maintenance.
• Street sweeping—the Sanitation Department ensures that the downtown business core streets are
swept daily to remove pollutants from roadways. The Sanitation Department utilizes high
efficiency vacuum street sweeper for maximum pollutant(e.g. trash, TSS, fecal coliforms, and
nutrient)removal. In addition, numerous municipal facilities (e.g., Winston-Salem Transit
Authority, Fleet Services, Sanitation Garage Truck Parking Lot, and Streets Operation Truck and
Stockpile Yard)utilize high efficiency vacuum sweepers to remove any potential pollutants (oil
and grease, TSS, fecal coliforms, and nutrients) at a designated service interval.
• Structural SCMs maintenance: The Stormwater Engineer inspected all municipally owned
SCMs to assess current site conditions in November 2021. Next, Stormwater staff created a
prioritization plan for SCM repair or rehabilitation activities. Based on these results, the Field
Operations Director will need to encumber a total of$4.90 million(approximate) to return the
six municipally owned SCMs to their designed, operating condition. The capital improvement
projects are designated for repair or rehabilitation services for Fiscal Years of 2025 to 2030;
these water quality SCMs scored the overall rank of 13 (Lowery Street Sand Filters Restoration)
to 24 (RJR Wetland Restoration).
13.1(h) Staff Training: A web-based power point presentation and booklet is mandatory for all current and
new municipal employees, which are not administrative positions, to view and synthesize awareness
information regarding good housekeeping practices as well as illicit discharge identification and
detection. Once training has been completed, City departments record each employee's name and
employee ID number for documentation purposes and submit these training logs to the Senior
Community Educator. These educational materials serve for refreshing current employees' awareness
of pollution prevention techniques. In 2021, the Senior Community Educator, Stormwater Operations
Analyst, and the City's Marketing and Communications Department created a new training video that
highlights proper pollution prevention& municipal good housekeeping practices for key City
operations to eliminate pollutant exposure to the environment. A main topic in this video pertains to
recognizing and reporting illicit discharges/dumping activities to Stormwater staff, so more incidents
can successfully be resolve by Stormwater staff, thanks to 'rank and file' City team members. For FY
2023-2024, 76.3 percent of city employees viewed and passed a confirmation test of Stormwater's PP
& MGH and IDDE training video. This educational video will need to be viewed by all City
employees on an annual frequency for maximum memory retention.
45

13.20 Municipal Good Housekeeping and Pollution Prevention Annual Reporting Task Items for FY
2023-2024:
1. The Stormwater Operations Supervisor performed SPPP audits and inspections of the selected
municipal operations or facilities: Fleet Services and Vegetative Management. This list is
located at G:\Industrial Inspection&Municipal Goodhousekeeping\Indust_Inspect\City
Industrial Information\Industrial Issues to be Resolved_Current.xlsx. Based upon these
inspections, the Stormwater staff recommended 83 BMPs for obtaining permit compliance as
well as eliminating exposure of pollutants to rainwater. Please reference Appendix B of inspected
facilities performed by Stormwater staff.
2. The Stormwater Engineer, Field Operations Director, and City Attorney's Office will create and
implement a flow-process for ensuring proper maintenance and operation of all municipally
owned stormwater control measures (SCMs). This flow process has not been addressed, as of
October 2024.
3. The Stormwater Civil Engineer created a MS4 Inspection, Operation, and Maintenance (I, 0, and
M) Plan during FY 2021-2022. The Field Operations Director approved the MS4 I, 0, and M
Plan and authorized its implementation by Field Operations, City Yard. This plan is located at:
G:\City Yard Inspection& Maintenance Plan\I&M SOP 2021 Final Version 12.22.21.docx.
4. Newly hired City employees viewed the stormwater orientation video and received a copy of the
handbook, Stormwater Runoff Municipal Good Housekeeping and Pollution Prevention. This
will serve as a foundation to educate newly hired city employees regarding proper pollution
elimination or mitigation practices as well as observing and report illicit discharges to the
Stormwater Division. 839 city employees viewed and read the proper pollution prevention and
municipal good housekeeping educational literature during FY 2023-2024.
5. The Stormwater Division provided funding to 3RC, a facility that collects, disposes, and/or
recycles household hazardous materials in the City of Winston-Salem. During FY 2023-2024,
3RC recycled 367.61 tons of household hazardous waste, including e-waste. 10,086 residents
used 3RC for their household hazardous waste disposal needs.
6. The Sanitation Division collected and composted leaves, vegetative material, and brush
collection. 30,515.21 tons of vegetative material was collected and composted by the Sanitation
and Utilities Departments.
7. City Yard Field Operations removed and disposed trash and debris from the city's right-of-way
stormwater collection system. During FY 2023-2024, Field Operations inspected and cleaned
23,987 MS4 structures within the city's right-of-way.
8. The Sanitation Division continued to perform streets sweeping activities within the municipal
limits with increased efforts directed to the Downtown business core. 1,858 linear miles were
swept during FY 2023-2024, according to the Sanitation Director, Mr. Stevie Dulin.
9. The Sanitation Division performed 18 street sweeping events at municipal facilities during FY
2023-2024. Based on estimated available open space of these facilities, the Sanitation
Department swept approximately 234 total acres of municipally owned impervious area.
10. For FY 2026-2027, the Field Operations Director will attempt to procure budgetary funding to
hire a professional engineering firm for creating stormwater pollution prevention plans of several
identified municipal operations/facilities (Table 13.4).

Best Management Practices for the Program to Monitor and Evaluate Stormwater Discharges to
Municipal Systems:
14.1(a) Maintain an Inventory of Industrial Sites: A complete list has been created by the Stormwater
Division. This list consists of industrial facilities that are permitted as defined by 40 CFR 122.26,
SARA Title III, hazardous waste facilities, or identified as having or had an illicit discharge. The
Stormwater Division updated this master list on July 19, 2024. All data will be stored digitally in our
database and will be updated semiannually to maintain the most current inventory. This information
can be located at: G:\Industrial Inspection & Municipal Goodhousekeeping\Indust_Inspect\City
Industrial Information\Master Industrial Spreadsheet\Industrial Master.xlsx.
14.1(b) Inspection Program: Our current techniques are based upon revised 2006 EPA inspection methods,
which include observations of effectiveness of nonstructural and structural BMPs, the facility's
stormwater collection system and stormwater discharge outfalls, site maps, and validation of written
SPPP information to actual field observations.
The City of Winston-Salem has prioritized industrial facilities within its municipal limits to be
inspected. The Stormwater Division used the following sources to generate the list:
1. EPA's Envirofacts Database for Toxic Release Inventory (SARA Title III) and RCRA
(hazardous waste treatment, disposal, and recovery) facilities (updated semiannually)
2. NC Department of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources Database (General and Individual
Permitted industrial facilities, as per 40 CFR 122.26) (updated semiannually)
3. The City of Winston-Salem Facilities' Database (municipal operations/facilities that are
permitted under 40 CFR 122.26) (updated semiannually, or as needed)
4. Illicit Discharge Reports (updated as needed and after each occurrence)
When combining the above-mentioned databases, facilities that appeared multiple times due to their
industrial activities and governmental regulations were ranked. As a result, the Stormwater Division
assigned these industrial facilities with a high priority ranking due to the elevated probability of
significant adverse impact to surface waters. The Stormwater Inspector will target these facilities for
inspections. Appendix B contains industrial and municipal facilities that were inspected during FY
2023-2024 by the Stormwater staff.
14.1(c) Evaluate Industrial Facilities discharging stormwater to the City's MS4: During the SPPP
review, Stormwater staff evaluates first flush data regarding benchmark values from the NPDES
permit to determine to status before arrival. Once onsite for an inspection, a visual field observation of
the stormwater collection system, current and past conditions of stormwater discharge outfalls (by
means of qualitative monitoring records), and effectiveness of nonstructural and structural BMPs are
observed. If needed, Stormwater staff will request copies of each sampling event to monitor results
based upon the status of the permitted facility. Stormwater staff will update the master list to identify
if the permitted facility is located within a TMDL watershed and/or discharges the TMDL pollutant of
concern. The Stormwater Division maintains a good working relationship with the NC Division of
Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR), Winston-Salem Regional Office. A copy of every
48

completed inspection and re-inspection form must be forwarded to Tamera Eplin, Regional Engineer,
who handles stormwater related duties for the Winston-Salem Regional Office (WSRO).
14.2 Monitor and Evaluate Stormwater Discharges to Municipal Systems Annual Reporting Task
Items for FY 2023 —2024:
1. The Stormwater Inspector conducted five inspections/reinspections of permitted industrial
facilities that discharge stormwater runoff to the City's MS4. Three facilities successfully
achieved compliance, as of June 30, 2024. Three facilities are in a status of`pending' since time
extensions were granted by the Stormwater Operations Supervisor. This information is located
at: G:\Industrial Inspection& Municipal Goodhousekeeping\Indust_Inspect\City Industrial
Information\Industrial Issues to be Resolved.xlsx. Please reference Appendix B of inspected
facilities performed by Stormwater staff.
2. All completed inspection forms of general permitted facilities, which was performed by the
Stormwater Operations Supervisor, was sent electronically to the Winston-Salem Regional
Office of NC DEQ. As a result, the Stormwater Division reported all inadequate, tiered
responses,based on the reviewed data and BMPs, if applicable, to DEQ.
3. During FY 2023-2024, the Stormwater Operations Supervisor examined four industrial facilities
within designated TMDL watersheds. This information is located at G:\Industrial Inspection&
Municipal Goodhousekeeping\Indust_Inspect\City Industrial Information\Industrial
Inspections.xlsx
4. The Stormwater Inspector updated the Stormwater Division's industrial inventory master list on
July 19, 2024. The Stormwater Inspector downloaded applicable facilities from EPA's
Envirofacts Database regarding Toxic Release Inventory, the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act (hazardous waste treatment, disposal, and recovery), and general and individual
stormwater permitted facilities from DEQ's website. Once downloaded, the database lists are
consolidated and compared to the city's existing master list—any absence facilities are included
into the city's master list. The city's current industrial inventory is located at G:\Industrial
Inspection&Municipal Goodhousekeeping\Indust—Inspect\City Industrial Information\Master

15.1(a) Fixed Interval Stream Sampling Program: Water quality samples are collected on a quarterly, fixed
interval basis at each monitoring site— 13 monitoring locations have been strategically selected
throughout the municipal boundaries. Samples are collected in a composite method, except for fecal
coliforms, which is a grab sample in accordance with 40 CFR 136.3. Composite samples are collected
every 15 minutes in 100 milliliter aliquots for a 24-hour period. Parameters analyzed by a
multiparameter meter are immediately obtained and recorded streamside. Appendix C contains all
tabular data from the city's fixed internal sampling program;Appendix D provides maps of these
sampling locations. This can be found at the following location:
G:\Techn_Projects_Files\Water Sampling\Stormwater Sampling Databases.
15.1(a) Water Quality Monitoring Program: On a quarterly basis, Stormwater staff collect instantaneous
results at 17 monitoring locations, which have been strategically selected throughout the municipal
boundaries of Winston Salem. The overarching goals of this monitoring program are detection of
50

illicit discharges/releases as well as evaluating the long-term trend analysis of baseline water quality
within non-TMDL watersheds. Samples are collected in dry and wet weather conditions to detect
point sources of illicit discharges as well as determining pollutant loading during all weather
conditions. Stormwater staff collects instantaneous water meter parameters, which include pH
(standard units), dissolved oxygen saturation percentage, dissolved oxygen (mg/L), temperature
(degrees Celsius), conductivity (microsiemens per a centimeter), total dissolved solids. The
parameters of ammonia(mg/L), and nitrate (mg/L) are collected by Stormwater staff, then analyzed at
a North Carolina certified laboratory. This can be found at the following location
G:\Techn Projects_Files\Water Sampling\Stormwater Sampling Databases.
15.1(a) TMDL Monitoring Program: On a quarterly basis, Stormwater staff collects instantaneous water
quality parameters (the same parameters listed above) as well as laboratory grab samples of fecal
coliforms at 22 strategic locations throughout Brushy Fork Creek, Peters Creek, and Salem Creek
Watersheds. By collecting a large population of samples, Stormwater staff will be able to rank
impaired stream segments by fecal coliform concentrations. Once stream segments are ranked, staff
will systemically sample and identify the most impaired outfalls or subbasins for the potential of
installing stormwater control measures. The City collects samples in both dry and wet weather
conditions, since the state collected and analyzed fecal coliforms during these conditions for TMDL
development. This methodology will allow Stormwater staff to perform comparative analyses for
evaluating pollutant loading. Appendix E contains all TMDL monitoring data for FY 2023-2024 in
tabular form.
15.2 Water Quality Assessment and Monitoring Annual Report Task Items for FY 2023-2024:
1. Stormwater staff performs quarterly, fixed interval sampling at 13 locations throughout Winston-
Salem for pollutant perimeters of BOD, TSS, TDS, Turbidity, Cd, Cr,Ni, Pb, Total &Dissolved Cu,
Total & Dissolved Zn, Total & Dissolved P,NH3,NO2,NO3, TKN, TN, and fecal coliforms.
Stormwater staff collected 1,038 water samples that were analyzed at a NC certified laboratory.
2. During FY 2023-2024, Stormwater staff collected 4,007 water samples with certified laboratory
analyses and 3,175 water samples were collected within Salem, Brushy Fork, and Peters Creek
Watersheds.
3. Stormwater staff will continue to perform quarterly water quality monitoring at 17 locations for the
instantaneous results of ammonia, pH, and dissolved oxygen saturation percentage, dissolved oxygen,
temperature, conductivity, total dissolved solids, and nitrate. Stormwater staff collected and analyzed
1,510 instantaneous parameters via portable YSI and Hach multiparameter meters during both dry and
wet weather conditions.
4. Stormwater staff will continue to perform TMDL monitoring at 22 locations for the instantaneous
parameters of ammonia, pH, and dissolved oxygen saturation percentage, dissolved oxygen
concentration, temperature, conductivity, total dissolved solids, and nitrate. Total suspended solids
and fecal coliforms parameters are analyzed at a North Carolina certified laboratory. Stormwater staff
collected and analyzed 5,371 instantaneous and certified laboratory parameters in Salem, Peters, and
Brushy Fork Creek Watersheds during dry and wet weather conditions.

16. TOTAL MAXIMUM DAILY LOADS (TMDLs)
Salem Creek Watershed TMDL
Obi ectives:
1. The permittee shall determine whether the MS4 discharges to receiving waters within a TMDL
watershed and identify the pollutant(s) of concern (POC). For all TMDLs with a NPDES MS4
regulated stormwater waste load allocation (WLA) assigned to the permittee, the permittee shall
determine whether the POC have potential to occur in MS4 stormwater discharges.
2. The permittee will utilize BMPs within the six minimum measures and the permittee's TMDL
Plan(s) to meet the permittee's assigned NPDES MS4 regulated WLA identified in the approved
TMDL to the maximum extent practical and to the extent allowable by law.
3. If subject to an approved TMDL with a NPDES MS4 regulated WLA assigned to the permittee,
the permittee will be considered in compliance with the TMDL if the permittee complies with
the conditions of this permit, including developing and implementing appropriate BMPs within
the six minimum measures to address the permittee's MS4 NPDES regulated WLA to the
maximum extent practical (MEP). While improved water quality is expected outcome, the
permittee's obligation is to implement BMPs designed to address the NPDES MS4 regulated
WLA assigned to the permittee to the maximum extent practical (MEP). The permittee is not
responsible for attaining water quality standards (WQS). The Division expects attaining WQS
will only be achieved through reduction from all point and nonpoint source contributors
identified in the approved TMDL.
TMDL Plans (as it pertains to the city of Winston-Salem's approved plan):
1. If the permittee has an existing TMDL Plan designed to address the NPDES MS4 regulated
WLA assigned to the permittee, that includes monitoring to evaluate progress, and which
addresses the POC through the six minimum control measures; it satisfies the objectives of this
Section.

16.1(a) Identify,Describe, and Map Watershed, Outfalls, and Streams: The City of Winston-Salem has
completed comprehensive watershed masterplan updates of Salem, Brushy Fork, and Peters Creek
Watersheds in 2011. GIS data was collected for these TMDL watersheds; survey-grade stormwater
MS4 attribute data(e.g. structure type and elevation, pipe diameter and material, etc.) is collected by a
contracted North Carolina Registered Surveyor. A consultant, HDR Engineering, performs QA/QC
measures on the survey data, extrapolates pipe elevations to integrate flow directional trajectories for
tracking IDDE discharges, and then, delivers a complete geodatabase to the Stormwater Division.
During this inventory scan, the surveyor and HDR staff collects major discharge outfall (SDO) and
stream data. If HDR staff encounters any dry weather flows at major SDOs, the Stormwater Division
is notified, and staff evaluates the unidentified flow for pollutants. If pollutants are detected,
Stormwater staff tracks and eliminates the illicit source. In addition, the Stormwater Division received
hydraulic and hydrological modeling data as well as pollutant loading data for future SCM
implementation projects. During FY 2022-2023 and 2023-2024, HDR incorporated screening tools to
characterize potential fecal coliform and sediment sources in the most impaired stream segments in
TMDL watersheds (or major tributaries).
16.1(b) Existing Measures: The City of Winston-Salem has implemented various stormwater control
measures (SCMs) and nonstructural BMPs to reduce fecal coliform loading within the Salem Creek
Watershed. During FY 2023-2024, the Stormwater Division continued to maintain these
programmatic SCMs/BMPs:

16.1(c) Assessment of Available TMDL Monitoring Data: The Stormwater Division performed a
programmatic review of its TMDL Sampling Plan in September 2021. One of the salient points of the
review included the lack of a substantial fecal coliform data population. As a result, the Stormwater
Division designated 22 in-stream monitoring locations throughout Salem, Peters, and Brushy Fork
Watersheds. Stormwater staff collects water quality samples on a quarterly frequency; for FY 2023-
2024, Stormwater staff collected 385 fecal coliform samples during dry and wet weather conditions.
As more data becomes available, Stormwater staff will perform basic statistical analyses to rank the
stream segments by the level of impairment (i.e., the higher the geometric mean at the sampling
location, the increased level of pollutant loading). A preliminary stream ranking order is included in
this report. As more data is collected, the Stormwater Division will perform annual trend analysis to
observe increasing, decreasing, or constant fecal coliform concentrations within Brushy Fork Creek,
Peters Creek, or Salem Creek Watersheds.
16.1(d) TMDL Monitoring Program: On a quarterly basis, Stormwater staff collects instantaneous water
quality parameters (dissolved oxygen- concentration and percent saturation, total dissolved solids,
conductivity, temperature,pH, nitrate, and ammonia) as well as certified laboratory results of fecal
coliforms at 22 strategic locations throughout Brushy Fork Creek, Peters Creek, and Salem Creek
Watersheds. By collecting a large population of samples, Stormwater staff will be able to rank
impaired stream segments by fecal coliform concentrations. Once stream segments are ranked, staff
will systemically sample and identify the most impaired outfalls or subbasins for the potential of
installing stormwater control measures. The city collects samples in both dry and wet weather
conditions, since the state collected and analyzed fecal coliforms during these conditions for TMDL
development. This methodology will allow Stormwater staff to perform comparative analyses for
evaluating pollutant loading.
57

16.1(e) Additional Measures: The City of Winston-Salem anticipates the implementation of numerous
nonstructural BMPs to expand current pollutant reduction strategies within the Salem Creek
Watersheds. By expanding current BMP strategies to the maximum extent practical, the Stormwater
Division hopes to benefit from synergic pollutant reductions within the targeted watershed. The
following matrix presents expanded measures (with corresponding explanations)to reduce fecal
coliform loadings within the Salem Creek Watershed:

16.1(g) Incremental Success: The Stormwater Division utilizes various mechanisms to document, analyze,
and report incremental successes to achieve WLA reduction. The methodology used for documenting
measure success (and ultimately, wasteload reduction) depends on measure type (i.e. nonstructural and
structural). However, the Stormwater Division has proposed the below-posted means for validating
pollutant reduction loading to the effectiveness of implemented control measures. These methods
include:
• Perform water quality sampling for targeted pollutants at the inlet and outlet points of a SCM
during the first flush portion of a storm event. Once a SCM is constructed and operational,
Stormwater staff will perform, at a minimum, one confirmation sampling event, to validate
pollutant reduction. The pollutant removal efficiency will be recorded on a spreadsheet; an
annual pollutant reduction will be extrapolated for the SCM.
60

• Continue to submit completed workload data and programmatic task items to DEMLR via the
Annual Report.
• Long-term, in-stream pollutant data will need to be collected, at designated sampling locations,
to observe pollutant deductions in wasteload allocation reductions within subwatersheds. Due to
the dynamic nature of biological ecosystems as well as the large percentage of pollutant
reduction required, the Stormwater Division needs a substantial data population to observe
percent reductions. As the number of SCMs/BMPs increases within a subwatershed, the
Stormwater Division anticipates that the observable, pollutant trend line should decrease.
• Whenever possible, use scientific journal articles (or similar professionally peer-reviewed
literature), quality controlled/assured laboratory analyses (from a North Carolina certified
laboratory), or professional engineered-sealed material when validating reduction methodologies
for this TMDL Implementation Plan. Any best professional assumptions must be qualified with
footnotes within supporting documents.
16.2 Salem Creek Total Maximum Daily Load(TMDL) Annual Report Task Items for FY 2023-2024:
1. 6,0511inear feet of restored drainage ditches within the City of Winston-Salem (and contributing

1,386 instanteous meter results with 100 percent of all detected illicit discharges were eliminated.
3. HDR staff walked 4.7 miles of streams within Salem Creek, Peters Creek, and Brushy Fork Watersheds
during dry weather conditions -no major outfalls were suspected of potential illicit discharges,based on
qualitative and multiparameter meter results.
4. The Stormwater Division is furnishing all FY 2023-2024 fecal coliform data from all 22 TMDL
sampling locations. This data set is contained in Appendix E.
5. Stormwater staff calculated the geometric mean(expressed in units of cfu/100 mL) for the 13 fixed
interval sampling sites, based upon the most polluted stream segments for fecal coliforms. The top three
polluted stream segments (during dry weather conditions) are Peters Creek Peters Creek at the Antique
Dealership (9,751), Little Creek at Jonestown Road(998) and Salem Creek at Elledge Wastewater
Treatment Plant(WWTP) (988). For FY 2023-2024, Stormwater staff collected fecal coliforms samples
during and after storm events (wet weather conditions). The top three polluted sites for wet weather
conditions during active rainfall conditions were Peters Creek at Antique Dealership (7,729), Brushy
Fork at Reynolds Park Road(5,940), and Salem Creek at Elledge WWTP (5,727). Post-storm event
results showed that the top three sites were the same as during the storm event with concentrations of
9,311, 1,273, and 1,146 cfu/100 mL, respectively. After evaluating concentrations for the past three
permit years and during ambient weather conditions, Stormwater staff observed that the top ranked site
for fecal coliform pollution is Peters Creek at Antique Dealership. As a preemptive measure, the
Stormwater Division engaged HDR to stream-walk the segment from Hanes Park to the Antique
61

Dealership (1.75 miles) during dry weather conditions; HDR observed six potential sources of fecal
coliforms, but no active discharges/releases were detected. For FY 2024-2025, Stormwater staff will
conduct more intensive, investigative efforts as well as perform a more robust water sampling regime
above/within the stream segment for more conclusive results.
6. Stormwater and Information Systems (I.S.) staff have successfully extracted potential septic tank
locations from the city's utility bill system. As a result, Stormwater and I.S. staff created GIS layer of
septic tank locations throughout the municipal boundaries. Stormwater staff consult the septic tank GIS
layer, as needed, when performing IDDE investigations that contain elevated levels of fecal coliforms,
ammonia, and nitrates for verifying the presence of a septic tank within the immediate vicinity.
7. City Council approved $300,000 for a new dewatering facility at City Yard, where street sweeping wash
water and MS4 cleaning debris leachate will discharge into the sanitary sewer system. The new facility
should begin construction activities approximately FY 2028-2029.
8. The Stormwater Operations Supervisor performed five inspections of industrial and municipal facilities
within the Salem Creek, Peters Creek, and Brushy Fork Watersheds that have the potential to discharge
fecal coliforms.
9. The Sanitation Department performed 18 sweeping events of municipally owned facilities/parking lots
(Fleet Services, WSTA, Field Operations, and the Sanitation Garbage Truck) during FY 2023-2024.
Stormwater staff estimates that approximately 234 acres (each sweeping event is approximately 13.0
acres) of impervious area was swept.
62

16.3 Muddy Creek Watershed TMDL
In November 2011, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) issued a final report for
turbidity impairment of the Muddy Creek Watershed. The Muddy Creek TMDL designates the City of
Winston-Salem's MS4 as a significant contributor of turbidity (i.e. total suspended solids)pollution. A waste
load allocation(WLA)was not assigned to the City's NPDES permit; however, total suspended solids loading
(tons per a day)must be reduced by 58 percent. In accordance with its NPDES permit, the city must evaluate
strategies and adapt BMPs to reduce TSS loading within the Muddy Creek Watershed.
The Stormwater Division performed a BMP assessment and selected appropriate reduction strategies to mitigate
TSS pollution. These selected BMPs are posted in the below table.

4. Stormwater staff calculated the arithmetic mean (expressed in units of milligrams per a liter) for the 13
fixed interval sampling sites and created a priority ranking,based on the most polluted stream segments.
The top three polluted stream segments (during dry weather conditions) are Lower South Fork at Ebert
Road(11.28 mg/L), Muddy Creek at Frye Bridge Road(10.47 mg/L), and Peters Creek at the Antique
Dealership (10.41 mg/L). For FY 2023-2024, Stormwater staff collected total suspended solids samples
during and after storm events (wet weather conditions). The top three polluted sites for wet weather
conditions during active rainfall conditions were Fiddlers Creek at Thomasville Road(29.3 mg/L),
Salem Creek at Fraternity Church Road(28.4 mg/L), and Salem Creek at Elledge Wastewater Treatment
Plant(24.6 mg/L). Post-storm event results showed that the top three sites were Fiddlers Creek at
Thomasville Road(17.6 mg/L), Peters Creek at Antique Dealership (11.9 mg/L), and Muddy Creek at
Frye Bridge Road(7.2 mg/L). After evaluating TSS concentrations for the past three permit years and
under dry weather conditions, Stormwater staff determined that the top ranked sites for TSS pollutants
are Lower South Fork Creek at Ebert Road, Muddy Creek at Frye Bridge Road, and Peters Creek at
the Antique Dealership and Salem Creek at Fraternity Church Road(both sites are ranked third). For
wet weather conditions with only one year of data availability(FY 2023-2024), Fiddlers Creek at
Thomasville Road is the most polluted stream due to TSS concentrations. Salem Creek from Elledge
WWTP to the confluence of Muddy Creek, including the Fraternity Church site, is ranked second.
Peters Creek at the Antique Dealership and Muddy Creek at Frye Bridge Road are tied for a third place
ranking. For FY 2024-2024, Stormwater staff will focus investigative efforts upstream from the Lower
South Fork at Ebert Road to determine potential TSS sources,based on available water quality data as
well as stream-walking reconnaissance activities.
6. During water quality sampling activities, instantaneous results of ammonia, pH, and dissolved oxygen
percent saturation, dissolved oxygen concentration, temperature, conductivity, total dissolved solids, and
nitrate are collected. This information is located at\Water Sampling\Stormwater Sampling
Databases\Current\Complete Stormwater Sampling Database_Current.xls Stormwater staff collected
546 results of instantaneous meter readings.
6. The Stormwater Division successfully resolved eight illicit discharges within the Muddy Creek
Watershed.
7. The Sanitation Department performed 18 street sweeping events at Fleet Services, Sanitation's Garage
Truck Storage Lot, Streets Operations Yard, and Winston-Salem Transit Authority. Stormwater staff
estimates that approximately 234 acres (each sweeping event is approximately 13.0 acres) of impervious
area was swept during FY 2023-2024.
