By James Cinelli Proposed Maryland
NPDES Ind. Stormwater Permit Requires Treatment of 20% of Impervious Surfaces
T
he Maryland Depart- ment of Environmen- tal Protection (MDE)
is proposing to make sig- nificant revisions to its Gen- eral Permit for Discharges of Stormwater Associated With Industrial Activities. These revisions go far beyond the requirements for implemen- tation of Best Management Practices (BMPs), many of which have been non-struc- tural and the core of the in- dustrial stormwater permit- ting program as documented in a facility’s Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The proposed permit will require physical changes to a facility and will likely result in significant costs to the permittee. The revised permit requires specific control measures in the SWPPPbased on the facil- ity type. When this permit is formally adopted, industries will have 90 days to file an application, fee payment, and
SWPPP. Most significantly, the permit requires restora- tion of impervious surfaces using the updated Maryland Stormwater Design Manual or equivalent actions in order to address Maryland require- ments for the Chesapeake Bay and local TMDLs. The requirement mandates that permit holders treat 20% of the impervious surfaces not currently treated to the stan- dards of the Design Manual by the fifth year of the permit term. This might include construction of bioretention basins, conversion of paved areas to pervious paving, or
installation of green roofs. An implementation plan and yearly updates are required to be submitted to the MDE. The new General Permit application now requires more detailed information relevant to the permit condi- tions, such as local stream impairments or TMDLs, and calculated area of impervi- ous surfaces. Also required is an electronic version of a SWPPP including a site map illustrating discharge loca- tions and other information regarding activities of the applicant to protect waters continued on page A
