The focus must be to prevent debris, liquids and other pollutants from leaving the property over the surface to the storm drain system, through the air and into the ground. Operational procedures for safety and regular grooming is also recommended to be included for practicality. Operational procedures must never allow or contribute to waste materials from potentially polluting the stormwater systems by precipitation, non-stormwater water sources or other maintenance liquids. Maintenance schedules must be set by the site designer and personnel in control of site operations. However, schedules, SOPs and site infrastructure must be allowed to be modified based on actual site inspections, observation or other site experience. Be careful not to contradict product recommendations from water quality device manufacturers, unless warranted by the unique application as determined by the designer. Coordinate with the property owner, or organization representative to modify existing SOPs, and create new SOPs that are necessary to adequately maintain and operate the property. The SOP must include the following components. 1. Provide instruction that directs workers to operate and maintain the property to prevent, control and contain debris, liquids and other pollutants from leaving the property. 2. Provide instruction that directs workers to dispose the waste generated by maintenance functions at licensed facilities or means consistent with MS4 regulations. 3. Provide instruction that directs the property owner for maintenance frequency and to adjust maintenance frequency based on inspections and observation. 4. Provide instruction that directs the property owner to document the effectiveness of the SOP and overall site at controlling and containing pollutants on the property. The following is a SOP template for typical site infrastructure and operations. However, the designer must ensure all unique site infrastructure limitations and operations are adequately controlled which may require modification to the SOP template on an individual basis. ---PAGE BREAK--- Long Term Stormwater Management Plan INSERT PROJECT NAME AND DATE USWAC Long Term Stormwater Management Plan Template 2017-04-19 SOP Template General: This SOP is not expected to cover all necessary procedure actions. Operators are allowed to adapt SOPs to unique site conditions in good judgment when it is necessary for safety, and the proper, and effective containment of pollutants.
