How to incorporate permit reqts into current TBR processes? Statewide standards for MS4- permitted and non-MS4 permitted campuses MS4-permitted campuses will self- regulate to demonstrate compliance with MS4 permit NonMS4-permitted campuses will ensure CGP compliance at a minimum but may have permanent stormwater practices, as well

TBR ProjectDesigner Design, including stormwater Stormwater how-to for TBR project managers CGP application TDEC NOC Contractor: twice weekly inspections Monthly Audit checklist: Campus Rep Plans review checklist Notice of Termination: TBR Project Manager Design includes permanent SW treatment practices List of acceptable practices Design guidance Standard operation and maintenance plans Maintenance SOP by campus Long term maintenance Construction begins As built certification Construction complete As Built Certification form

Stormwater How-to for TBR PMs during design Guidance document with summary cheat sheet Used to help PM understand process and help educate Designers Plans review checklist Part of TBR Construction Runoff Control Program for universities Will help to ensure CGP compliance for universities and other campuses

List of Acceptable Practices Statewide list May be practices certain campuses choose not to allow Based upon current BMP Manuals available across the State Designer could propose non-listed practice Designer would need to provide O&M plan

Insert List of Acceptable Practices

Design Guidance Used by Designers for the proper design of the acceptable practices (BMPs) Will apply statewide May be regionally specific Designer can provide justification for designing practices not in DG

Update Chapter 3: Design

Add As-Built Certification Form

Oversight During Construction Campus rep responsible for completing monthly audit checklist and verifying CGP compliance Contractual language may need revision to provide enforcement tools to campus rep

Construction Completion Revise F704 Certificate of Substantial Completion to include NOT submission requirement O&M Manuals with certified as-built survey provided to campus and TBR by designer Permanent stormwater practice logged into database for tracking and annual inspections

Standard O&M Plans Standard O&M Plans for each listed practice Designer provides O&M Plan for unlisted practice

Owner/Operator Inspections In order to ensure that all stormwater BMPs are operating correctly and are properly maintained, the MS4 shall, at a minimum, require owners or operators of stormwater management practices to: a.Perform routine inspections to ensure that the BMPs are properly functioning. These inspections shall be conducted on an annual basis, at a minimum. These inspections shall be conducted by a person familiar with control measures implemented at a site. Owners or operators shall maintain documentation of these inspections. MS4 Permit Reqt

Maintenance SOP by Campus Maintenance of permanent stormwater practice may look different at each campus Need for Activity Owner who: Logs inspections per MS4 permit Follows-up to ensure maintenance is performed as deemed necessary during inspection
