Executive Summary
The Town of Stallings is seeking to renew the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES) Phase 1I Storm Water Permit (Permit Number NCS000454) issued on October 1, 2005
for Regulated Public Entities pursuant to 15A North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) 2H
.0126. The Town of Stallings is a federally -designated small municipal separate storm sewer
system (MS4) and is required to have a Phase 1I Permit.
This document provides the comprehensive Storm Water Management Program (SWMP) Report
required by Section X of the NPDES Storm Water Permit Application Form SWU-264 and was
prepared in accordance with Form SWU-268. This document contains information regarding the
storm sewer systems and receiving streams for the Town of Stallings. This document also
provides Phase 1I permit information as well as a description of the proposed SWMP Plan to be
implemented by the Town of Stallings for the second five-year NPDES permit term. The overall
objective of the SWMP is to protect water quality by reducing the discharge of pollutants to the
maximum extent practicable through the effective implementation of the six (6) minimum
requirements stipulated in 15A NCAC 2H .0126. as described below:
1. Public Education and Outreach Program — A program has been developed and will continue
to be implemented to inform citizens of the impacts of storm water pollution on water bodies.
2. Public Involvement and Participation Program — A program has been developed and will
continue to be implemented to involve citizens in proactive measures to improve water
quality through community participation.
3. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Program — A program has been developed and
will continue to be implemented to identify and eliminate illicit discharges to surface waters.
This program will include a storm sewer system mapping component to identify storm water
outfalls, drainage areas, and specify the names and locations of all waters within the Town of
Stallings.
4. Construction Site Program — The Town of Stallings will continue to rely on the North
Carolina Division of Land Resources (NCDLR) to implement this element of the Phase 1I
permit and will continue to work closely with NCDLR in detecting and reporting potential
sediment and erosion control violations.
5. Post -Construction Program — A program has been developed and will continue to be
implemented to address post -construction storm water runoff from new development and re-
development that cumulatively disturb greater than one acre. The Town of Stallings adopted
a Post -Construction ordinance effective October], 2007,
6. Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping Program — A program has been developed and will
continue to be implemented for municipal operations owned /operated by the Town of
Stallings to reduce the discharge of storm water pollutants from these facilities to the
maximum extent practicable including staff training, and periodic facility inspections.
The Town of Stallings will ensure the execution of the aforementioned six (6) program measures
by implementing a Storm Water Management Program Plan (see Appendix A).

Source: 2000 Decennial Census data
The data in Table 1-1 was obtained by the U.S. Census Bureau blocks contained within the
Town of Stallings.
1.2 Growth Rate
The population growth rate represented as an "Estimated Annual Percent Change" for the
• incorporated area and ETJ of Town of Stallings is 21% annually. This growth rate was
calculated using the percent change between the 2000 and 2009 population totals from the U.S.
Census Bureau, annualized by dividing this percent change by nine (9) years.
1.3 Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas
The jurisdictional and MS4 service areas covered by this SWMP Report include the 7.3-square
mile area of the Town of Stallings.
1.4 MS4 Conveyance System
The existing MS4 systems serving the Town of Stallings are composed of open ditches and/or
pipes depending on land development conditions. An estimated 7.3 square miles of area within
the Town of Stallings contains storm water infrastructure where storm water is conveyed by
sheet flow to open ditches or to pipe systems before discharging to streams.
Mapping of the storm water conveyance system inlets and outlets was performed during the first
5-year permit term. A total of 23 outlets have been mapped and are included in Town of
Stallings Storm Water Drainage System Map. Additional inlets and outlets will be added to the
map system using land development as -built surveys and field observations during routine
service requests. Maintenance and improvements to the MS4 systems are funded by storm water
fees collected within the Town of Stallings. Maintenance activities consist primarily of
removing blockages and preventing erosion. Other repairs include replacing damaged inlet and
outlet structures, piped sections, and improving roadway ditches/shoulders.

1.6 TMDL Identification
Section 303(d) of the federal Clean Water Act requires States to identify and establish a priority
ranking for waterbodies that do not meet applicable water quality standards (303(d) list),
establish total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) for the pollutants causing impairment of these
e waterbodies, and submit the list of impaired waters and TMDLs to the U.S. EPA. The TMDL
process establishes the allowable loadings of pollutants or other quantifiable parameters for a
waterbody based on the relationship between pollution sources and in -stream water quality
conditions. The TMDL is used by States to establish water quality based controls to reduce
pollutants from point and non -point sources and restore and maintain the quality of the water
resources in compliance with applicable standards. In addition to the 303(d) list, the federal
Clean Water Act requires States to submit a report describing how well waterbodies support
designated uses (e.g., swimming, aquatic life support, water supply), as well as likely causes and
potential sources of impairment.
For this report, the North Carolina Assessment and Impaired Waters List (2008 303(d) List, 2004
Catawba River Basinwide Water Quality Plan, and 2008 Yadkin -Pee Dee River Management
Plan) was used to identify the use support ratings of the waterbodies in the Town of Stallings as
well as those waterbodies not meeting applicable water quality standards and requiring TMDL
development. This information is summarized in Tables 2-1 and 2-2 for the Catawba River
Basin and the Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin, respectively. These Tables include streams located
within the Town of Stallings as well as those streams not located within the Town of Stallings
but receive storm water discharge from the Town of Stallings.
Two (2) stream sections located within the Town of Stallings and three (3) streams that receive
storm water discharge from the Town of Stallings (via unnamed tributaries) are identified on the
303(d) list as impaired and not meeting established water quality standards.

•
•
• Goose Creek watershed
• South Fork Crooked Creek watershed
• Unnamed Tributary to Sixmile Creek watershed
• Unnamed Tributary to Duck Creek watershed
• Unnamed Tributary to South Fork Crooked Creek
The causes of impairment include combinations of fecal coliform bacteria and/or biological
impairment. Of these, only one stream section is identified as requiring TMDL development for
impairment caused by fecal coliform bacteria: the Goose Creek watershed located in the Yadkin
—Pee Dee River Basin.
Goose Creek is assigned a high priority for TMDL development. The Town of Stallings in
cooperation with the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) began
the development of a TMDL for Goose Creek in January 2003. The TMDL for Goose Creek
was approved by NCDENR on July 8, 2005 and is currently being implemented through a Water
Quality Recovery Program Plan submitted to NCDENR.

Section 3.0
Existing Water Quality Programs
3.1 Local Programs
The Town of Stallings has several water quality -related programs administered locally. Each of
these programs is listed and described below:
3.1.1 Post -Construction Storm Water Program
The purpose of this program is to protect, maintain and enhance the public health, safety,
environment and general welfare by establishing minimum requirements and procedures to
control the adverse effects of increased post -construction storm water runoff and non -point
source pollution associated with new development and redevelopment. It has been determined
that proper management of construction -related and post -construction storm water runoff will
minimize damage to public and private property and infrastructure, safeguard the public health,
safety, and general welfare, and protect water and aquatic resources. This program uses the
following specific means to meet its purpose:
(1) Establishing decision -making processes for development to protect the integrity of
watersheds and preserve the health of water resources;
• (2) Minimizing changes to the pre -development hydrologic response for new development and
redevelopment in their post -construction state in accordance with the requirements of this
ordinance for the applicable design storm in order to reduce flooding, stream bank erosion,
and non -point and point source pollution, as well as to maintain the integrity of stream
channels, aquatic habitats and healthy stream temperatures;
•
(3) Establishing minimum post -construction storm water management standards and design
criteria for the regulation and control of storm water runoff quantity and quality;
(4) Establishing design and review criteria for the construction, function, and use of structural
storm water best management practices (BMPs) that may be used to meet the minimum post -
development storm water management standards;
(5) Encouraging the use of better management and site design practices, such as the use of
vegetated conveyances for storm water and preservation of greenspace, buffers and other
conservation areas to the maximum extent practicable;
(6) Establishing provisions for the long-term responsibility for and maintenance of structural and
non-structural storm water BMPs to ensure that they continue to function as designed, are
maintained appropriately, and pose minimum risk to public safety; and

• (7) Establishing administrative procedures for the submission, review, approval and disapproval
of storm water management plans, for the inspection of approved projects, and to assure
appropriate long-term maintenance.
On October 1, 2007, the Town of Stallings adopted a Post -Construction Storm Water Ordinance
approved by NCDWQ to ensure protection of water quality after construction activities are
complete for development and redevelopment projects that disturb 1 acre or greater of land. The
Post -Construction ordinances contain three main provisions to protect water quality including:
• structural water quality Best Management Practices (BMPs) with long term
maintenance agreements and inspection requirements,
• stream buffers, and
• structural volume and peak control BMPs with long term maintenance agreements
and inspection requirements.
3.1.2 Illicit Discharge Storm Water Program
The purpose of this ordinance is to protect water quality and to provide for the health, safety and
general welfare of the citizens of the Town of Stallings, North Carolina through the regulation of
non-stormwater discharges to the stormwater drainage system to the maximum extent practicable
as required by federal and state law. This program establishes methods for controlling the
introduction of pollutants into the municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) in order to
O comply with requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
permit pursuant to the Federal Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq. This article is
supplemental to and in no way replaces regulations administered by the State of North Carolina
or federal government.
The objectives of this program are:
(1) To regulate the contribution of pollutants to the MS4;
(2) To prohibit illicit connections and illicit discharges to the MS4; and
(3) To establish legal authority to carry out all inspection, surveillance, monitoring,
enforcement and penalty procedures necessary to ensure compliance with this ordinance.
On June 14, 2010, the Town of Stallings adopted an Illicit Discharge Storm Water Ordinance to
ensure enforcement of the Illicit Discharge Storm Water Program.
3.1.3 TMDL Water Quality RecoverProgram for Goose Creek
The Town of Stallings Phase 11 Permit specifies that within two (2) years of receiving
notification from the N.C. Division of Water Quality that a Phase II jurisdiction is subject to a
TMDL for a certain stream segment, the Town of Stallings will establish a TMDL Water Quality
Recovery Program for that stream segment. On August 10, 2006, the Town of Stallings received
written notification from the N.C. Division of Water Quality that it is subject to the approved
fecal coliform TMDL for Goose Creek. The Town of Stallings (working cooperatively with
Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program) subsequently completed a TMDL Water Quality
Recovery Program Plan for the Goose Creek TMDL, which was submitted to the N.C. Division

The format of the SWMP Plan adheres to the section titles included in NCDWQ form SWU-268-
091009. Since the SWMP Plan is a living document that is reviewed by Town of Stallings
annually, the SWMP Plan is included as a stand-alone document; therefore, the chapter numbers
have been changed. For example, Section "7.1 Public Education and Outreach on Storm Water
Impacts" has been changed to Section "l .I Public Education and Outreach on Storm Water

1.1.2 Target Audience
The target audiences for the public education program include those entities that will have
significant positive and/or negative impacts on water quality conditions. The audiences selected
are listed below along with an explanation as to why they are being targeted for educational
outreach:
• General Public: The general public has been selected as a target for the educational
program due to the significant negative impacts they can have on water quality conditions
including dumping oil and other wastes into storm drains, improper disposal of household
hazardous wastes, improper disposal of yard wastes along creek banks and improper
application of pesticides and herbicides on lawns.
• Commercial and Industrial: Commercial and Industrial facilities have been targeted for
the educational program due to the significant negative impacts they can have on water
quality by improperly handling and disposing of wastes, making illicit connections to the
storm drain system and practicing poor housekeeping at their facilities.
Developers 1 Construction Contractors: Developers and Construction Contractors will be
targeted due to the significant impact that they have on buffer preservation and proper
erosion control at construction sites, both of which help reduce by TSS concentrations in
streams by implementation of proper erosion control techniques and preservation of
stream buffers to treat runoff.
• Significant Minority and Disadvantaged Communities: The Town of Stallings will target
these groups for additional education as appropriate.

1.3.1 Storm Sewer System Map
The Town of Stallings has completed a storm sewer base map. This map shows the locations of
outfalls, drainage areas, and receiving waters. As part of this mapping program, the Town of
Stallings identified dry weather flows to the storm sewer system and initiated the measures
necessary to investigate and eliminate pollution sources.
The Town of Stallings will ensure that the storm sewer maps are updated through enforcement of
the Post -Construction ordinance (adopted by the Town of Stallings on October 1, 2007) and
through field surveys. The ordinances require new developments to submit plans and drawings
to the Town of Stallings containing the locations of newly installed storm sewer infrastructure.
In addition, the Town of Stallings may conduct periodic field surveys of areas of new
construction to update storm sewer coverage.
1.3.2 RegulatorMechanism
In June 2010, the Town of Stallings adopted an "Illicit Discharge Storm Water Ordinance" that
prohibits illicit discharges, illicit connections and improper disposal to surface waters and storm
sewers as authorized by North Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 160A-174. Copies of the
above ordinance are available on the following website: httpa/www.stallingsnc.org by selecting
"Stormwater", then by selecting "Stormwater Illicit Discharge Ordinance".
1.3.3 Enforcement
Enforcement procedures are contained with Section 15 of the Illicit Discharge Storm Water
ordinance. These procedures include guidelines on when to issue a Warning Notice, and/or a
Notice of Violation. The procedures also provide guidance on the assessment of penalties
including financial penalties, compensatory actions, suspensions, cease and desist orders. All
appeals to the ordinances will be heard by the Stallings Board of Adjustments.
1.3.4 Detection and Elimination
An effective illicit discharge detection and elimination plan is essential to the success of the
Phase II Program. The Town of Stallings will rely on the following techniques for -the
development of their Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Program:
• Public Involvement — Public reporting is one of the best tools for detecting illicit
discharges. As part of the Public Education Program, The Town of Stallings will focus
on informing residents of what to look for in the detection of illicit discharges and the
proper reporting process. When the Town of Stallings receives a report from the public
. of a potential water quality problem staff respond to implement the actions necessary to
identify and eliminate pollution sources.

N@RHI CARf1 ANA ,_.. ..n,.. ,_
• Outfall Inspections — The Town of Stallings performs annual outfall inspections to
investigate the presence of dry weather flows and illicit discharges.
• Staff Training and Involvement — Selected staff will be trained on the identification,
detection, and elimination of illicit discharges and connections. As part of performing
work in the communities, these staff will be better able to help identify and eliminate
pollution sources.
Detailed procedures for locating and responding to illicit discharges and connections are
described in the sections below.
1.3.5 Locating- Priority Areas
The Town of Stallings relies heavily on reports from the public and staff to assist in locating
priority areas for additional focus. Businesses, Areas, or Outfalls with repeated reports of
pollution problems will be targeted during the permit term for additional follow-up. The public
and staff will be educated on detecting pollution using:
• Visual observation — Discoloration of water or banks, presence of foam, presence of dry
• weather flows, floating liquid or solids, presence of dead fish or dead macroinvertibrates
can all be signs of potential pollution.
• Odor — Unusual odors (septic, chemical, petroleum, etc.) can be signs of potential
pollution.
All reports of potential pollution will be addressed by the Town of Stallings.
1.3.6 Procedures for Tracking the Source of an Illicit Discharge
Once a priority area is identified, standardized follow up field screening activities are performed
to identify and eliminate pollution sources, including illicit discharges. These procedures will be
used, as appropriate, to track the source of an illicit discharge or connection.
• A thorough assessment of the physical appearance and odor of the illicit discharge;
• A drainage system survey of the upstream drainage area (businesses, operations, etc.)
and/or pipes to determine the source of discharge;
The use of dye tests or in -line video camera tracing to detect the source of the illicit
discharge or connection; and/or
Analytical or bacteriological testing to determine the nature of the discharge.

Once the source of the discharge or connection is discovered, staff work with the source owner
to remove the source as described below.
1.3.7 Procedures for Removing the Source of the Illicit Discharge
Once the source of a pollution problem is detected, the party responsible for the discharge will be
immediately identified and a verbal and/or written notice issued for violation of Illicit
Discharge Storm Water Ordinance. Immediate discontinuation of the discharge, corrective
action, and a compliance schedule will be required by the notice. If the responsible party fails to
make corrective action within the required schedule, the Town of Stallings may issue fines
and/or take necessary measures to restore compliance as described in the Illicit Discharge Storm
Water Ordinance.
1.3.8 Procedures for Evaluation of the Plan to Detect and Eliminate Illicit Discharges
The BMPs described in Table 4 above will be evaluated annually to determine the overall
effectiveness of the plan. If proven ineffective, the plan will be re-evaluated and changed as
necessary.
• 1.3.9 Incidental Non -Storm Water Discharges
The following incidental non -storm water discharges or flows (i.e., illicit discharges) are not
considered as significant contributors of pollutants and will not be regulated by Storm Water
Pollution Control Ordinances developed by the Town of Stallings:
•
Water line flushing, except super -chlorinated water line flushing;
•
Diverted stream flows;
•
Uncontaminated groundwater infiltration;
•
Uncontaminated, pumped groundwater;
•

• • Lawn watering, or landscape irrigation;
• Dechlorinated swimming pool discharge and dechlorinated filter backwash (water or
filter backwash sitting for 72 hours without chemical treatment is considered
dechlorinated),
• Street wash water only when unmodified potable water is used;
• Flows from emergency fire and rescue operations other than those resulting from
negligence on the part of the person who owned or controlled the pollutant;
• NPDES permitted discharges authorized by the EPA or NCDENR;
• Dye testing, using suitable dyes for verifying cross -connections, tracing plumbing lines,
determining now direction or rate and for similar purposes, provided that verbal
notification by non -governmental entities is provided to the Town of Stallings prior to
testing; and
• Removal of storm water system blockages with unmodified potable water.
1.3.10 Non -Storm Water Discharges
All non -storm water discharges not listed in Section 1.3.8 are considered significant contributors
of pollutants and are prohibited by the Storm Water Pollution Control Ordinances unless they are
permitted as an allowable discharge under a State issued permit.
1.3.11 Outreach
As part of the Public Outreach Program described in Section 1.1, the Town of Stallings will
inform public employees, businesses, industries and the general public of illicit discharges and
improper waste disposal and how they threaten the environment. Cross training of municipal
employees also includes techniques for detecting illicit discharges.
1.3.12 Evaluation
The measurable goals for each BMP are described in Table 4. Other measures of success for the
illicit discharge detection and elimination program include the following:
• Documentation of Storm Water Program Activities — As a baseline measurable goal, staff
will document completion of Work Plan program activities annually that demonstrate
successful fulfillment of BMPs associated with this program element. All activities will
be documented on an annual basis.
• Enforce the Illicit Discharge Storm Water Ordinance: The Illicit Discharge Storm Water
Ordinance was adopted in June 2010. The enforcement of this ordinance is an ongoing
process. The measurable goal for this BMP is the quick and efficient correction of water
quality violations, which is tracked in regular reports.

Post -Construction Storm Water Management in New Development and
Re -Development
•
The Town of Stallings developed and implemented a program to manage post -construction storm
water discharges from development and re -development projects. The goal of this program is to
ensure that adequate controls are in place to minimize negative water quality impacts from post -
construction storm water discharges through the use of a combination of structural and non-
structural best management practices (BMPs). A Post -Construction Storm Water Ordinance was
developed and adopted October 1, 2007. This ordinance addresses storm water runoff from new
development and re -development projects that disturb greater than or equal to one acre, including
projects less than one acre that are part of a larger common plan of development or sale. The
program includes the development and implementation of long term operation and maintenance
practices for BMPs. The following Sections explain the BMPs implemented to meet this
requirement. Table 6 provides information concerning the BMPs to be implemented to fulfill the
requirements of the Post -Construction Storm Water Management Program.

Special Interest Waters
For the purposes of this document, the waters of the Town of Stallings that are subject to total
maximum daily loads (TMDLs) and special requirements relating to the protection of threatened
and endangered aquatic animal species are considered special interest waters and will be
addressed as described in the following Sections.
1.7.1 Waters Subiect to TMDLs
Section 303(d) of the Clean Water Act requires states to develop a list of waters not meeting
water quality standards or which have impaired uses. This list, referred to as the 303(d) list, is
submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for review. The 303(d) process requires
that a TMDL be developed for each of the waters appearing on the 303(d) list. The Town of
Stallings Phase II Permit specifies that within two (2) years of receiving notification from the
N.C. Division of Water Quality that a Phase II jurisdiction is subject to a TMDL for a certain
stream segment, the Town of Stallings will establish a TMDL Water Quality Recovery Program
for that stream segment.
On August 10, 2006, the Town of Stallings received written notification from the N.C. Division
iof Water Quality that it is subject to the approved fecal coliform TMDL for Goose Creek. The
Town of Stallings (working cooperatively with Mecklenburg County Water Quality Program)
subsequently completed a TMDL Water Quality Recovery Program Plan for the Goose Creek
TMDL, which was submitted to the N.C. Division of Water Quality on July 9, 2008 for
compliance with the above described permit requirement. Implementation of the Plan began in
July 2008. Input received from the Advisory Group formed to facilitate the implementation of
this Plan resulted in revisions that were subsequently submitted to the N.C. Division of Water
Quality on November 13, 2009. Implementation of this Plan began in November 2009.
The Town of Stallings will continue working cooperatively with Mecklenburg County Water
Quality Program to implement the requirements of this Program.
1.7.2 Waters Supportive of Threatened and Endan ered Aquatic Animal Species
Certain waters provide habitat for aquatic animal species that are listed as threatened or
endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or National Marine Fisheries Service under the
provisions of the Endangered Species Act, 16 U.S.C. 1531-1544 and subsequent modifications.
Maintenance and recovery of the water quality conditions required to sustain and recover
federally -listed threatened and endangered aquatic animal species contributes to the support and
maintenance of a balanced and indigenous community of aquatic organisms and thereby protects
the biological integrity of the waters. The Town of Stallings Phase II Permit specifies that IS jurisdictions will incorporate into their Storm Water Management Program Plan site specific

1. STORM SEWER SYSTEM INFORMATION
1.1 Population Served
The permanent population for the Town of Stallings is approximately 8,140
persons. It is the opinion of the Town of Stallings that there is no reported
seasonal population to which could be added to the overall population. The town
used the website of the United States Census Bureau as well as Factfinder.com to
establish as basis for our population estimates.
1.2 Growth Rate
The population growth rate for the Town of Stallings was based on the relative
change between the US Census population in 1990 and 2000. The reported
population in 1990 was 2,132 and 3,189 in 2000. This represents a 14.95%
increase over ten (10) years, with an annual rate 1.495%.
1.3 Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas:
40 The current jurisdictional and MS4 service areas for the Town of Stallings are 6.3 f
square miles.
1.4 MS4 Conveyance System: The town currently uses pipes and open channels to
control the flow of water during a storm. However, the coverage of pipes and
open channels are not found throughout the town. The current system of pipes
and channels does perform at an adequate rate but may be negotiated'during a
large outfall event. Maintenance is performed as needed for pipes and open
channels found within the town limits. Per Stallings Zoning Ordinance,
Subdivision Ordinance and Land Development Standards all streets constructed

1.6 Estimate Methodology:
The methodology used to determine the percentages of land uses in the town was
to examine the 2002 taxes by parcel and divide the property classifications into
the aforementioned. We then looked to our current land use map and conducted a
count of parcels that were residential, commercial, industrial and open space.
Given the estimated numbers we calculated each classification as a percentage of
the overall count.

7.1.2 Target Audience:
The target audiences for the garbage inserts are primarily all residents
within the town limits and receiving garbage and recycling services. The
brochures and fact sheets have a target audience of any persons which frequent
the library, fire departments, town hall and schools. The web site is targeting
residential and commercial persons within the town and those persons/businesses
wishing to locate within the town and gain a more in-depth understanding of
storm water. The Public Meeting is targeted to gain the majority of the residences
and business within the town to have the opportunity to listen and have their
concerns addressed by the proper officials. School -aged children are the target
for all in -school education programs. However, it is the goal of the programs to
encourage interaction between children and their parents through education.
7.1.3 Target Pollution Sources:
Pollutant sources targeted with the garbage insert are those which produce
trash, chemicals and waste oils, fecal coli form and sediment and erosion control.
The fact sheets and brochures will encompass all pollutant sources; trash, car
washing, disposal of household chemicals and oils, and lawn care products.
Septic systems shall be address as a target pollutant source for all BMPs
mentioned above.
7.1.4 Outreach Program:
The public will be informed at least 25 days prior to the public meeting
and participation in open discussion will be strongly encouraged. The school
programs shall include Adopt -A -Stream, Adopt-A-Greenway/Trail, and stenciling
of storm drains and will be made available to all residents of the town for
extended outreach participation. The garbage insert will present general
information as well as good housekeeping measures that can be performed on a
household level. The micro site within the town's website will give contact
information in addition to any documents related to storm water. It is the goal of
the town that through the aforementioned BMPs that 80% of the general public
within the town will gain access to storm water information.
7.1.5 Decision Process:
The town decided to use the aforementioned methods because it presents
the most efficient and effective educational outreach. Furthermore, the town
chose the goals to which they felt would gain the broadest audience while
allowing for interaction between the town officials and the general public. The
responsible parties for implementing BMPs 1-5 are the Town Clerk and the Town
Manager within the Planning Department. The Town Clerk works closely with
all public facilities within the town and is the most visible link between the public
and town officials. The Town Manager will provide the pertinent storm water
information to be found in the fact sheets, mailers, brochures and web sites. It
7
• will be through the communication and cooperative efforts of the Town Clerk and
the Town Manager that the school educational programs will be developed and
implemented.
7.1.6 Evaluation:
The town plans to evaluate the program based on public feedback.
Internally the town manager, planning director and town clerk will conduct an
annual meeting to discuss if the BMPs are effective and meeting their said goals.
Should any changes be necessary, DWQ will be notified annually.

7.2.2 Target Audience:
The target audience for all BMPs mentioned above is for the entire town.
7.2.3. Participation Program:
• 7.2.3.1 Adopt -A -Stream:
8
• Will allow persons to become involved at a level that they are comfortable
with as well as giving the flexibility of participation.
7.2.3.2 Storm Drain Stenciling:
Allows a more hands on approach but on a smaller, less intense
participation demand than the Adopt -A -Stream and Adopt-A-Greenway
programs.
7.2.3.3 Adopt-A-Greenway/Trail:
Will allow persons to become involved at a level that they are comfortable
with as well as giving the flexibility of participation.
7.2.4 Decision Process:
The town chose the aforementioned participation programs because it
allows the residents to choose their level of involvement and to what
extent they wish to participate. All the programs will allow the
participants to perform their duties without conflicting with their personal
schedule while achieving the overall goals of the programs. The
programs are proven and effective in neighboring municipalities and the
town feels as though there will be much support among the civic
organizations, homeowner's association, local businesses, schools and
individuals. The education for the benefits of such programs and their
affect on storm water will be included for schools, libraries and town hall
through the brochures and website. The stenciling program is aimed
more toward informing the public that you should think twice before
pouring, washing, dumping or adding anything to our storm drains. The
Adopt -A Trail and Adopt -A -Stream programs are programs the state
currently supports and it is the intention of the town to utilize the current
educational materials and implementation strategies available.
7.2.5 Evaluation:
Evaluation of the programs will come from the feedback of the
community as well as walking; the streams and trails/greenways found
within the town. Stenciling of the storm drains will be inspected on an
annual basis and maintenance done as necessary. A section will be
included on the town's website to allow for comments and suggestions
regarding the programs. The degree of pride our residents display in our
town will be evident through their participation in maintaining the
necessary natural controls for storm water.

7.3.2 Storm Sewer System Map:
The town has contracted with a private firm to generate an electronic map
as well as a paper copy which will be stored and maintained by the
planning staff at town hall. The map shall include at minimum; location
of outfalls and their receiving streams, as well as existing storm water
detentions and storm drains. The map will be delineated into quadrants in
order to provide a basis for which annual inspections can be performed.
7.3.3 Regulatory Mechanism:
Years 3 through 5 will have the town developing and implementing a
comprehensive storm water ordinance. The ordinance will make
H
provisions for definition, deterrents of illicit of illicit non -storm water
discharge, inspection of such discharge and elimination of such discharge
through enforcement and penalties.
7.3.4 Enforcement:
The ordinance will make provisions for enforcement strategies to be taken
for illicit discharge violations. The strategies may include fines and civil
penalties. The process shall first involve notification to the property
owner allowing ample time to rectify the illicit discharge and concluding
with issuance of notice of violations and fines.
7.3.5 Detection and Elimination:
The town's suggested approach to detect and eliminate illicit discharges
and connections will begin with a primary evaluation of the current
system. Given our storm sewer map will be divided into quadrants, this
will allow for ease of inspections while maintaining a methodical and
organized approach to detection. Upon detection of illicit discharge or
connection, the property owner will be notified or the necessary steps
required remediating the situation. However, the town does not currently
have the staff to perform the inspections effectively. It is the goal of the
town to either hire inspection staff or contract services through an outside
consultant.
7.3.5.1 Procedures for locating Priority Areas:
The division of the storm sewer map will be used to perform field
inspections of more aging systems within the town and will be
denoted on the map. Moreover, on -site inspections shall be
conducted in conjunction with the annual Fire Departments
Hazardous Materials inspections. Our town is divided into more
than one fire district.
7.3.5.2 Procedures for Tracing the Source:
The town will train employees on illegal discharge and connection
identification. Given our limited staff and available resources
tracing the source of illicit discharge and connections will come
from public comments/complaints and random on -site inspections.
7.3.5.3 Procedures for Removing the Source:
Once an illicit discharge or connection has been discovered,
documentation of such violation will begin. The property owner
will be notified of the violation and the steps necessary to remedy
the violation. In case of fecal coli form discharge, the Union
County Health Department shall be notified immediately.
7.3.5.4 Procedures for Evaluation of Plan:
The number of violations reported will be documented and the
number of those violations remedied will be documented. A
percentage will be determined of violations in comparison to
remediations.

It is the main goal of the town to inform all residents of the hazards
associated with illicit discharges and connections. This will be achieved
through the previously discussed educational and involvement program.
7.3.9 Decision Process:
The program for illicit discharge detection and elimination was chosen as
being the most effective and cost efficient for the town_ Through
mapping, development of an ordinance and training of employees, the
town hopes to establish a base for,which the detection and elimination can

results, then changes will be made accordingly and DWQ notified
immediately or any and all changes.
7.4 CONSTRUCTION SITE STORM WATER RUNOFF CONTROL
The town will continue to rely on the North Carolina Department of
Environmental and Natural Resources Sediment and Erosion Control Program
and Division of Water Quality general storm water permit, in addition to the
North Carolina General Construction Permit for its construction activities.
7.4.1 BMP Summary Table:
Pre- A pre -construction X X X X X Town
Construction meeting will be Manager &
Meeting conducted through the Town Clerk
planning department to
educate developers and
• builders of current storm
water requirements.
7.4.2 Regulatory Mechanism:
A pre -construction meeting will be mandatory for all builders and
developers to complete annually. The meeting will inform builder and developers
of current storm water regulations, requirements, enforcement and penalties that
shall ensue for violations. Each builder and developer shall sign a document to be
drawn up by the town's attorney stating that each builder/developer was made
aware of any and all storm water regulations and intends to comply with all. The
recorded document will be kept with the Town Clerk and the Planning
Department.
7.4.3 Plan Reviews: All plans will be reviewed by the planner as well as the
contract engineer. All comments shall be returned to the builder/developer for
amendments to be made accordingly before resubmittal.
7.4.4 Enforcement:
Enforcement shall come through random inspections to be performed by
either contract consultants or future hired staff. Penalties shall range from fines
levied, injunction of permits and civil penalties. The town has not determined the
exac .n"sures penalties will take on.
13
• 7.4.5 Inspections:
Random inspections shall be performed by either contract consultants or
future hired stag A report of their findings shall be documented and maintained
with the planning department.
0
7.4.6 Public Information:
A notification letter will be mailed out to all builders and developers on
record with the planning department as of the previous two years. The letter will
state the nature of the meeting, date, time, place and need for participation in
order to receive future building permits.
7.4.7 Decision Process:
The town felt as though this BMP was the most direct and effective
measure to ensure communication of current storm water regulation and
requirements. The planning staff will educate builders/developers not only on the
rule and regulations but educate them on the reason for the importance of
understanding storm water. It is only through education can the town hope to
achieve its goal of reducing and improving the quality of storm water.
7.4.8 Evaluation:
Evaluation of the program will come from a survey that the
builders/developers will complete upon finishing the meeting. Furthermore,
success of the BMP will be determined by the number of violations conducted by
those persons who participated in the pre -construction meeting.
7.5 POST -CONSTRUCTION STORM WATER MANAGEMENT IN

• I. STORM SEWER SYSTEM INFORMATION
1.1 Population Served
The permanent population for the Town of Stallings is approximately 8,140
persons. It is the opinion of the Town of Stallings that there is no reported
seasonal population to which could be added to the overall population. The town
used the website of the United States Census Bureau as well as Factfinder.com to
establish as basis for our population estimates.
1.2 Growth Rate
The population growth rate for the Town of Stallings was based on the relative
change between the US Census population in 1990 and 2000. The reported
population in 1990 was 2,132 and 3,189 in 2000. This represents a 14.95%
increase over ten (10) years, with an annual rate 1.495%.
1.3 Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas:
The current jurisdictional and MS4 service areas for the Town of Stallings are 6.3
square miles.
1.4 MS4 Conveyance System: The town currently uses pipes and open channels to
control the pow of water during a storm. However, the coverage of pipes and
open channels are not found throughout the town. The current system of pipes
and channels does perform at an adequate rate but may be negotiated during a
large outfalI event. Maintenance is performed as needed for pipes and open
channels found within the town limits. Per Stallings Zoning Ordinance,
Subdivision Ordinance and Land Development Standards all streets constructed
by private developers must have curb and gutter storm water systems, and
structural BMPs to handle storm water runoff for developments that create over
20,000 square feet of impervious areas are required.
1.5 Land Use Composition Estimates:
Residential 70%
I*
Commercial 15%
Industrial 10%
Open Space 5%
1.6 Estimate Methodology:
The methodology used to determine the percentages of land uses in the town was
to examine the 2002 taxes by parcel and divide the property classifications into
the aforementioned. We then looked to our current land use map and conducted a
count of parcels that were residential, commercial, industrial and open space.
Given the estimated numbers we calculated each classification as a percentage of
the overall count.
1.7 TMDL Identification:
The Town of Stallings does not currently discharge into a controlled body of
water or receiving stream as defined by the EPA and/or DENR.

7.1.2 Target Audience:
The target audiences for the garbage inserts are primarily all residents
within the town limits and receiving garbage and recycling services. The
brochures and fact sheets have a target audience of any persons which frequent
the library, Fire departments, town hall and schools. The web site is targeting
residential and commercial persons within the town and those persons/businesses
wishing to locate within the town and gain a more in-depth understanding of'
storm water. The Public Meeting is targeted to gain the majority of the residences
and business within the town to have the opportunity to listen and have their
concerns addressed by the proper officials. School -aged children are the target
for all in -school education programs. However, it is the goal of the programs to
encourage interaction between children and their parents through education.
7.1.3 Target Pollution Sources:
Pollutant sources targeted with the garbage insert are those which produce
trash, chemicals and waste oils, fecal coli form and sediment and erosion control.
The fact sheets and brochures will encompass all pollutant sources; trash, car
washing, disposal of household chemicals and oils, and lawn care products.
Septic systems shall be address as a target pollutant source for all BMPs
mentioned above.
7.1.4 Outreach Program:
The public will be informed at least 25 days prior to the public meeting
and participation in open discussion will be strongly encouraged. The school
programs shall include Adopt -A -Stream, Adopt-A-Greenway/Trail, and stenciling
of storm drains and will be made available to all residents of the town for
extended outreach participation. The garbage insert will present general
information as well as good housekeeping measures that can be performed on a
household level. The micro site within the town's website will give contact
information in addition to any documents related to storm water. It is the goal of'
the town that through the aforementioned BMPs that 84% of the general public
within the town will gain access to storm water information.
7.1.5 Decision Process:
The town decided to use the aforementioned methods because it presents
the most efficient and effective educational outreach. Furthermore, the town
chose the goals to which they felt would gain the broadest audience while
allowing for interaction between the town officials and the general public. The
responsible parties for implementing BMPs 1-5 are the Town Clerk and the Town
Manager within the Planning Department. The Town Clerk works closely with
all public facilities within the town and is the most visible link between the public
and town officials. The Town Manager will provide the pertinent storm water
• information to be found in the fact sheets, mailers, brochures and web sites. It
7
• will be through the communication and cooperative efforts of the Town Clerk and
the Town Manager that the school educational programs will be developed and
implemented.
0
7.1.6 Evaluation:
The town plans to evaluate the program based on public feedback.
Internally the town manager, planning director and town clerk will conduct an
annual meeting to discuss if the BMPs are effective and meeting their said goals.
Should any changes be necessary, DWQ will be notified annually.

7.2.3. Participation Program:
7.2.3.1 Ado pt-A- Stream:
8
• Will allow persons to become involved at a level that they are comfortable
with as well as giving the flexibility of participation.
7.2.3.2 Storm Drain Stenciling:
Allows a more hands on approach but on a smaller, less intense
participation demand than the Adopt -A -Stream and Adopt-A-Greenway
programs.
7.2.3.3 Ado pt-A- G reenway/Trail:
Will allow persons to become involved at a level that they are comfortable
with as well as giving the flexibility of participation.
7.2.4 Decision Process:
The town chose the aforementioned participation programs because it
allows the residents to choose their level of involvement and to what
extent they wish to participate. All the programs will allow the
participants to perform their duties without conflicting with their personal
schedule while achieving the overall goals of the programs. The
programs are proven and effective in neighboring municipalities and the
town feels as though there will be much support among the civic
organizations, homeowner's association, local businesses, schools and
individuals. The education for the benefits of such programs and their
affect on storm water will be included for schools, libraries and town hall
Is through the brochures and website. The stenciling program is aimed
more toward informing the public that you should think twice before
pouring, washing, dumping or adding anything to our storm drains. The
Adopt -A Trail and Adopt -A -Stream programs are programs the state
currently supports and it is the intention of the town to utilize the current
educational materials and implementation strategies available.
7.2.5 Evaluation:
Evaluation of the programs will come from the feedback of the
community as well as walking the streams and trails/greenways found
within the town. Stenciling of the storm drains will be inspected on an
annual basis and maintenance done as necessary. A section will be
included on the town's website to allow for comments and suggestions
regarding the programs. The degree of pride our residents display in our
town will be evident through their participation in maintaining the
necessary natural controls for storm water.

7.3.2 Storm Sewer System Map:
The town has contracted with a private firm to generate an electronic map
as well as a paper copy which will be stored and maintained by the
planning staff at town hall. The map shall include at minimum; location
of outfalls and their receiving streams, as well as existing storm water
detentions and storm drains. The map will be delineated into quadrants in
order to provide a basis for which annual inspections can be performed.
7.3.3 Regulatory Mechanism:
Years 3 through 5 will have the town developing and implementing a
Scomprehensive storm water ordinance. The ordinance will make
H
provisions for definition, deterrents of illicit of illicit non -storm water
discharge, inspection of such discharge and elimination of such discharge
through enforcement and penalties.
7.3.4 Enforcement:
The ordinance will make provisions for enforcement strategies to be taken
for illicit discharge violations. The strategies may include fines and civil
penalties. The process shall first involve notification to the property
owner allowing ample time to rectify the illicit discharge and concluding
with issuance of notice of violations and fines.
7.3.5 Detection and Elimination:
The town's suggested approach to detect and eliminate illicit discharges
and connections will begin with a primary evaluation of the current
system. Given our storm sewer map will be divided into quadrants, this
will allow for ease of inspections while maintaining a methodical and
organized approach to detection. Upon detection of illicit discharge or
connection, the property owner will be notified or the necessary steps
required remediating the situation. However, the town does not currently
have the staff to perform the inspections effectively. It is the goal of the
town to either hire inspection staff or contract services through an outside
consultant.
7.3.5.1 Procedures for locating Priority Areas:
The division of the storm sewer map will be used to perform field
inspections of more aging systems within the town and will be
denoted on the map. Moreover, on -site inspections shall be
conducted in conjunction with the annual Fire Departments
Hazardous Materials inspections. Our town is divided into more
than one fire district.
7.3.5.2 Procedures for Tracing the Source:
The town will train employees on illegal discharge and connection
identification. Given our limited staff and available resources
tracing the source of illicit discharge and connections will come
from public comments/complaints and random on -site inspections.
7.3.5.3 Procedures for Removing the Source:
Once an illicit discharge or connection has been discovered,
documentation of such violation will begin. The property owner
will be notified of the violation and the steps necessary to remedy
the violation. in case of fecal coli form discharge, the Union
County Health Department shall be notified immediately.
7.3.5.4 Procedures for Evaluation of Plan:
The number of violations reported will be documented and the
number of those violations remedied will be documented. A
percentage will be determined of violations in comparison to
• remediations.

whenever possible.
i
7.3.8 Outreach:
It is the main goal of the town to inform all residents of the hazards
associated with illicit discharges and connections. This will be achieved
through the previously discussed educational and involvement programs.
7.3.9 Decision Process:
The program for illicit discharge detection and elimination was chosen as
being the most effective and cost efficient for the town. Through
mapping, development of an ordinance and training of employees, the
town hopes to establish a base for which the detection and elimination can
follow.
7.3.10 Evaluation:
The town plans to perform internal evaluations using violations,
remediations, public feedback and input as means for success or failure of
the chosen BMPs. Should areas be found to produce less than desirable
12
results, then changes will be made accordingly and DWQ notified
immediately or any and all changes.
7.4 CONSTRUCTION SITE STORM WATER RUNOFF CONTROL
The town will continue to rely on the North Carolina Department of
Environmental and Natural Resources Sediment and Erosion Control Program
and Division of Water Quality general storm water permit, in addition to the
North Carolina General Construction Permit for its construction activities.
7.4.1 BMP Summary Table:
Pre- A pre -construction X X X X X Town
Construction meeting will be Manager &
Meeting conducted through the Town Clerk
planning department to
educate developers and
. builders of current storm
water requirements.
7.4.2 Regulatory Mechanism:
A pre -construction meeting will be mandatory for all builders and
developers to complete annually. The meeting will inform builder and developers
of current storm water regulations, requirements, enforcement and penalties that
shall ensue for violations. Each builder and developer shall sign a document to be
drawn up by the town's attorney stating that each builder/developer was made
aware of any and all storm water regulations and intends to comply with all. The
recorded document will be kept with the Town Clerk and the Planning
Department.
7.4.3 Plan Reviews: All plans will be reviewed by the planner as well as the
contract engineer. All comments shall be returned to the builder/developer for
amendments to be made accordingly before resubmittal.
7.4.4 Enforcement:
Enforcement shall come through random inspections to be performed by
either contract consultants or future hired staff. Penalties shall range from fines
levied, injunction of permits and civil penalties. The town has not determined the
exact measures penalties will take on.
13
7.4.5 inspections:
Random inspections shall be performed by either contract consultants or
future hired staff. A report of their findings shall be documented and maintained
with the planning department.
7.4.6 Public Information:
A notification letter will be mailed out to all builders and developers on
record with the planning department as of the previous two years. The letter will
state the nature of the meeting, date, time, place and need for participation in
order to receive future building permits.
7.4.7 Decision Process:
The town felt as though this BMP was the most direct and effective
measure to ensure communication of current storm water regulation and
requirements. The planning staff will educate builders/developers not only on the
rule and regulations but educate them on the reason for the importance of
understanding storm water. It is only through education can the town hope to
achieve its goal of reducing and improving the quality of storm water.
7.4.8 Evaluation:
. Evaluation of the program will come from a survey that the
builders/developers will complete upon finishing the meeting. Furthermore,
success of the BMP will be determined by the number of violations conducted by
those persons who participated in the pre -construction meeting.
7.5 POST -CONSTRUCTION STORM WATER MANAGEMENT 1N
NEW DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT
Program Requirements: At a minimum you must:
➢ Develop, implement, and adopt by ordinance a post -construction storm
water managements program to address post -construction runoff from new
development and redevelopment. This shall include redevelopments
projects that disturb greater than or equal to one acre, as well as projects
less than one acre that are a part of a larger common plan of development
or sale, that discharge into the MS4 or into an interconnected MS4.
Develop and implement strategies which include a combination or
structural and/or non-structural best management practices appropriate for
your community;
Begin program implementation by March 10, 2008;
The program shall require all projects that meet the appropriate size
limitations to apply for a locally issued permit under one of the following
parameters:
14
• + Low Density Projects: Projects shall be permitted as low density if
the project meets the following conditions:
1. No more than 2 dwelling units per acre or 24 % built -upon area
(BUA) for all residential and non-residential development;
2. Storm water runoff from the development shall be transported
from the development by vegetated conveyances to the maximum
extent practicable
3. All BUA shall be at a minimum of 30 feet landward of all
perennial and intermittent surface waters
4. The permit shall require recorded deed restrictions and
protective covenants to ensure that development activities maintain the
development consistent with the approved project plans. The changes
in deed restriction and protective covenants will supercede all existing
restrictions and covenants.
• High Density Projects: Projects exceeding the low density
threshold shall implement storm water control measures that:
1. Control and treat the difference in storm water runoff volume
leaving the project site between the pre and post development
conditions for the one year 24 hour storm, but no more than 120
hours.
2. All structural storm water treatment systems used to meet the
requirements of the program shall be designed to have an 85%
average annual removal fro Total Suspended Solids (TSS).
3. All BUA shall be at a minimum of 30 feet landward of all
perennial and intermittent surface waters.
4. The permit shall require recorded deed restrictions and
protective covenants to ensure that development activities maintain
the development consistent with the approved project plans. The
changes in deed restrictions and protective covenants will
supercede all existing restrictions and covenants.
Ensure adequate long-term operation and maintenance by the owner of
BMPs. The program shall include requirements that the owner of a
permitted structural BMP, submit annually to the local program, a
maintenance inspection report on each structural BMP. The inspection
shall be completed by a qualified professional; and
A program shall be developed to control, to the maximum extent
practicable, the sources of fecal coil form.

➢ Alternative detention systems are encouraged, final approval of
system must come from town's contract engineer.
7.5.3 Structural BMPs
Current development standards state those developments
which exceed 20,000 square feet of impervious area to control the
pre -development runoff discharge from the 2 year and 10 year
design storm events. Alternative detention systems are
encouraged, final approval of system must come from town's
contract engineer.
7.5.4 Regulatory Mechanism
The goal of the town is to develop its storm water ordinance post -
construction development controls will address the required elements of the North
Carolina temporary rules. Site design regulations and BMPs will be concluded
from those defined in the North Carolina model ordinance to be developed for
Phase lI communities.
7.5.5 Operation and Maintenance
It is the town's intent that all maintenance and inspections of structural
BMPs be the responsibility of the developer/builder/resident/homeowner's
association, whichever applies. A designated staff person for the town will be
responsible for obtaining annual maintenance inspection reports from qualified
17
professionals. The aforementioned staff person will then report the number of
inspections, notifications and corrective actions completed in the annual report.
7.5.6 Decision Process
It is the goal of the town to meet the minimum program requirements by
March 2008. Cooperative strategies between the town and the Union County
Health Department will need to be developed to effectively address the matter of
containing fecal coli form bacteria.
7.5.7 Evaluation
Internal review of the program shall be conducted annually and changes
made accordingly. Any and all changes will be reported to DWQ immediately.
7.6 POLLUTION PREVENTION & GOOD HOUSEKEEPING MEASURES
