Thank you! ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Forms Committee This Guidance Document was developed by the Forms Committee of the Stormwater Coalition of Albany County. The collective experience of Committee participants includes design; review; site inspections during construction; developing and implementing maintenance agreements; and inspection of post construction stormwater practices. Together the Committee represents a wide variety of MS4/municipal types, with two of the MS4 municipalities also responsible for a Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) SPDES Permit and the related Albany Pool Long Term Control Plan The content of this document reflects the experience of several MS4s audited by the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) over the past 3 years.

Content Check List - Short Version Stormwater Coalition of Albany County Guidance Document ---PAGE BREAK--- Oversight of the Construction Activity Permit Guidance Document Explained & Instructions Purpose The purpose of this document is to help public entities regulated under the Federal Clean Water Act MS4 Permit, as administered by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC), better manage their oversight of the NYSDEC Construction Activity General Permit. It functions as a teaching tool to help explain what should be included in a Construction Activity Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan and as a compendium of forms to help MS4s manage the review process and track content. The “forms” presented here were created using Microsoft EXCEL and are available in two formats; as a PDF which includes all forms organized by topic as described in the Table of Contents and as an EXCEL workbook easily adapted to individual MS4 needs and interests. While the document in total was created by the Stormwater Coalition of Albany County, how individual MS4s choose to use it is at the discretion of the MS4. Specific MS4 instructions can be noted below. In general the intent of this Guidance Document is to establish expectations beneficial to all involved with preparing, reviewing, and implementing Part I. Oversight Tools for MS4s This includes a set of forms intended to help MS4s track who is responsible for what regarding the review process; the status of corrections and modifications of the status of construction activity permit coverage over time; the status of internal municipal documents related to land disturbance permitting; and the status of long term maintenance agreements pertaining to post construction stormwater management practices. The Part I. G. Critical Information Summary form is used to record key information about the proposed Part II. and Part III. Content Check Lists – Long and Short Versions These Content Check Lists, both the Long and Short Versions are a comprehensive list of items to include in a They are broken out into topics, each with a specific purpose. Section A. Project Parameters. Information establishes the type of to be prepared, regulatory/MS4 requirements, site geography. Section B. Forms and Documents. Lists all forms and documents to include with the Section C. Erosion and Sediment Control Components. Reviewers and Preparers are reminded of required elements named in the NYSDEC Construction Activity Permit GP-0-15-002; MS4s clarify requirements and note additonal requests. Section D. Post Construction Stormwater Management Components. Reviewers and Preparers are reminded of required elements named in the NYSDEC Construction Activity Permit GP-0-15-002 and NYSDEC Stormwater Management Design Manual (2015); MS4s clarify requirements and note additional requests. Section E. Municipal Requirements. Listing of municipal requirements pertaining to drawings, maps, and rainfall standards. The Long Version is highly descriptive of permit and municipal requirements. This is intentional. The language is there to help explain the content of a and serve as guidance for individuals less familiar with requirements. The Short Version is an abbreviated listing of requirements intended to remind experienced Preparers and Reviewers of requirements. Individuals new to preparation or review may want to use the Long Version Check List, while others more familiar with may want to use it for reference. Both versions use the same number to reference the same check list item. If using the Short Version, that number will refer back to the Long Version where there is a more detailed description. Some items have been removed from the Short Version. This explains gaps in the Short Version numbering system. Using the Content Check Lists. In the Preparer column, the Preparer notes if the item is present, not applicable, and records where the item is located by page number in the In the Reviewer column, MS4 staff and/or a consultants hired by the MS4 check the content of the against the Preparer's information. Items missing from the or in need of clarification can then be recorded by the Reviewer in the Part I. Oversight Forms for MS4s - E.

These amounts are based on the NYSDEC 2015 Stormwater Design Manual 2015 isohyet maps in Chapter 4 Uniform Stormwater Sizing Criteria and recommendations from consulting engineers hired by the Town to review applications. None of these standardized amounts are lower than all possible 2015 isohyet precipitation amounts for Albany County, and in some cases thery are higher. Also, as stated in teh Design Manual, "Designers may also use the most recent rainfall frequency values developed by acceptable sources.

Step 2, Determine Water Quality Treatment Volume: Ck List Item No. 188) 295 Option selected for meeting the water quality criteria for redeveloped portions of site (or all of site if no increase in impervious): 296 __Impervious cover at close of construction reduced by at least 25% of the total disturbed impervious area, with soil restoration in newly created pervious areas Site plans clearly indicate areas converted from impervious to pervious conditions and text/narrative shows acreages or square footage reduced 297 minimum of 25% of the WQv from the disturbed impervious area is captured and treated by standard practices or reduced by runoff reduction techniques. Site plans show location of standard or runoff reduction practices and indicate the contributing drainage areas to them. 298 __Alternative ("proprietary") practices will treat 75% of the WQv from the disturbed impervious area as well as any additional runoff from tributary areas outside the disturbed impervious area. Site plans show location of proprietary practices and drainage areas to them, and list the manufacturer and model for validation that the technology is accepted by NYSDEC. 299 combination of the above three approaches is proposed and weighted using the following formula: %WQv treatment by Altnerative practice = (25 - (%IC reduction + WQv treatment by Standard practice + % Runoff reduction)) x 3 If this formula is used to determine the proportion of the WQv that must be handled by alternative practice, inputs to the calculation should be provided with supporting data.
