1. Municipal St rm Water Program

2. Storm Water Programs Industrial –bus maintenance yards Construction –addition of a gym Municipal

3. Municipal Program Regulates storm water discharges from a municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4)

4. MS4 A conveyance or system of conveyances (including roads with drainage systems, municipal streets, catch basins, curbs, gutters, ditches, man-made channels, or storm drains

5. Phase I Larger cities and counties are permitted through MS4 permits Require programs and procedures to be implemented by the municipality that will reduce storm water pollutants in the runoff

6. Some schools are currently involved under Phase I A Public Education Program is one aspect of a storm water management program and many include reaching out to classrooms, educating the students, and measuring the effectiveness of the outreach program

7. Phase II A second phase of storm water regulations will broaden the world of Permittees to include smaller cities and counties as well as other governmental facilities

8. Phase II (cont.) Currently there is a Draft Statewide General Permit for the discharge of storm water from Small MS4s, which can be found at: www.swrcb.ca.gov/stormwtr/index.html

9. Regulated Small MS4s School districts within cities and portions of counties that are subject to permit are defined as regulated Small MS4s

10. Permit Requirements The permit requires the Permittee to address 6 minimum control measures (or program areas)

11. Permit Requirements (cont.) For each minimum control measure, best management practices (BMPs) must be implemented that reduce the discharge of pollutants in storm water runoff and measurable goals for each BMP to ensure BMP development and implementation

12. Minimum Control Measures Public Education and Outreach Public Involvement/Participation Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Construction Site Storm Water Runoff Control Post Construction Storm Water Management Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operations

13. Public Education Requirements Educate the public on The impacts of storm water The steps the public can take to reduce pollutants in storm water runoff

14. Public Education Examples Presentations Worksheets Field trips (in conjunction with other science lessons)

15. Public Participation Requirements Comply with State and local public notice requirements Allow the public to review and comment on the permit and SWMP Involve the public in the implementation of SWMP

16. Public Participation Examples Storm drain stenciling around the schools Creek cleanups Monitoring team Demonstration wetlands on site

17. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Requirements Storm sewer system map An ordinance prohibiting non-storm water discharges Plan to detect and address non-storm water discharges Educate on the hazards of illicit discharges

18. Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Examples Implement program for trash reduction at school events Train janitorial staff on prohibiting non- storm water discharges

19. Construction Site Control Requirements An enforceable ordinance to require erosion and sediment controls at construction sites MS4 must require construction site operators to use BMPs Site plan and BMP review Public comments/complaints procedures Site inspections and enforcement procedures

20. Construction Site Control Examples Use surrounding municipality’s program/requirements Ensure that contractors follow requirements

21. Post-Construction Management Requirements An ordinance requiring long term BMPs Capture and/or infiltrate Design BMPs On-going maintenance of BMPs

22. Post-Construction Management Examples Use surrounding municipality’s program/requirements Ensure that contractors follow requirements

23. Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping Requirements Examine municipal activities that have the potential to cause pollution in storm water Implement BMPs to reduce that potential Train employees

24. Pollution Prevention/Good Housekeeping Examples Use proper amounts of fertilizer on grounds Reduce pesticide use in conjunction with other state programs Bus maintenance yards may already by covered under industrial program if all BMPs have already been implemented, reference existing SWPPP in SWMP

25. Coordination In implementing the program, schools are encouraged to work with the surrounding MS4, especially: Existing education materials Construction/Post-Construction Programs

26. Permit Coverage To obtain coverage under the General Permit, once adopted, a school district will submit a Notice of Intent to comply with the permit and a Storm Water Management Program (SWMP)

27. SWMP Describes the BMPs to be implemented that address the six minimum control measures, the measurable goals to be achieved and a time schedule of implementation. A permittee has 5 years to fully implement a program, (assuming it is making reasonable progress throughout). In the case of schools, the SWMP should also identify all of the schools within the district.
