1. Site Description

A. A description of the nature of the construction activity or demolition work:

Demolition of an existing McDonald’s building and a residential house to the west.

B. A description of the intended sequence of major activities which disturb soils for

major portions of the site (e.g. grubbing, excavation, grading): Contractor is to follow the Phase I and Phase II construction sequences which are described on the Phase I and Phase II Erosion Control Plans found in Appendix H.

C. Estimates of the total area of the site and the total area of the site that is

expected to be disturbed by excavation, grading, or other activities: The proposed development considers disturbing 1.30 acres of a 1.26 acre site. Approximately 1.30 acres of land will be disturbed that are adjacent to the site which are in the public right-of-way or off-site. These areas are included in this SWPPP.

D. An estimate of the runoff coefficient of the site after construction activities are

completed and existing data describing the soil or the quality of any discharge from the site; the proposed development consists of the following:

Impervious Area (IA) = 0.96 acres c = 0.90 Pervious Area (PA) = 0.34 acres c = 0.45 (0.90)(IA) + (0.45)(PA)

Composite runoff coefficient (c) = (IA) + (PA)

C = 0.78

of 11

The existing soil consists of mostly clay. Therefore, the drainage from the proposed pervious areas will likely runoff the soils. The erosion and sediment leaving the site will be minimized by the BMPs that will be followed. The BMPs for this site are described later in this SWPPP.

E. Site Map See attached Phase I and Phase II Erosion Control Plans. F. Runoff from the site will be directed through storm sewer to Eldorado Street and

will ultimately flow to Lake Decatur. There are 0 acres of existing wetland on the site.

2. Controls

A. Erosion and Sediment Controls (i) Stabilization Practices The dates when major grading activities occur, when construction activities

temporarily or permanently cease on a portion of the site, and when stabilization measures are initiated shall be recorded on the Stabilization Schedule For Major Grading Activities as found in Appendix G, and shall be kept up to date in this SWPPP. Stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable in portions of the site where construction activities have temporarily or permanently ceased, but in no case more than 7 days after the construction activity in that portion of the site has permanently ceased unless:

a. The initiation of stabilization measures by the 7th day after construction activity temporarily or permanently cease is precluded by snow cover. In that event, stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable.

b. Construction activity will resume on a portion of the site within 14 days from when activities ceased, (e.g. the total time period that the construction activity is temporarily ceased is less than 14 days). In that event, stabilization measures do not have to be initiated on that portion of the site by the 7th day after construction activity has temporarily ceased. See the Soil Protection Chart on the Erosion Control Plans for rates of permanent and temporary vegetation.

(ii) Structural Practices Silt fence, temporary construction entrance, inlet baskets and any additional

structural control measures are to be constructed as specified on the Phase I and Phase II Erosion Control Plans found in Appendix H.

(iii) Best Management Practices for Impaired Waters This site will not discharge directly to an impaired water.

of 11

B. Storm Water Management Storm water drainage on the proposed site will be collected in the proposed

storm sewers that will run throughout the site. Storm water detention for this site is provided in 72” corrugated metal pipes at the Southeast portion of the property.

C. Other Controls

(i) Off-Site Vehicle Tracking

A stabilized construction entrance/exit will be provided to help reduce vehicle tracking of sediments. The paved streets adjacent to the site entrance will be inspected daily and swept as necessary to remove any excess mud, dirt, or rock tracked from the site. Dump trucks hauling material from the construction site will be covered with a tarpaulin. The General Contractor’s Superintendent will be responsible for seeing that these procedures are followed.

(ii) Excavation Spoil Materials

Excavation spoil materials are generated during the excavation of footings and utilities installation. These materials must be properly managed to prevent them from contributing to storm water discharges. The materials generated from the development of this project will be stockpiled in a designated area surrounded by adequate erosion control protection until needed, as described in this section. If it is determined that the material is not needed, it will be hauled off the site in an appropriate manner as described in this section. A copy of the receiving site’s NPDES permit must be included in this SWPPP if spoil materials are transported off site.

(iii) Dust Control

Minimizing wind erosion and controlling dust will be accomplished by one or more of the following methods:

a. Covering 30% or more of the soil surface with a non-erodible material. b. Roughening the soil to produce ridges perpendicular to the prevailing

wind. Ridges should be about six (6) inches in height. c Frequent watering of excavation and fill areas. d. Providing gravel or paving at entrance/exit drives, parking areas and

transit paths.

(iv) Equipment Service Area

The General Contractor shall identify an area on the Erosion Control Plans for equipment cleaning, maintenance and repair. This area shall be protected by a temporary perimeter berm, or equivalent measure, to prevent surface runoff from leaving the area, and shall be located no closer than 150' from any waters of the United States, and no closer than 50' from any storm inlet.

of 11

(v) Material Stockpiles

Storm water runoff to and from material stockpiles shall be controlled to prevent materials from creating a diversion of surface water to disturbed soils or from entering the surface water. Topsoil stockpiles shall be surrounded with perimeter silt fence sediment control measures and be covered with non-erosive material which may include temporary seeding with straw mulch and tackifier, mulch, or other material providing suitable cover as approved by the Qualified Personnel.

(vi) Waste Materials

All waste materials will be collected and stored in a securely lidded metal dumpster. The dumpster will meet all local and any State solid waste management regulations. All trash and construction debris from the site will be deposited in the dumpster. The dumpster will be emptied a minimum of twice per week or more often if necessary, and the trash will be hauled to the appropriate dump facility. No construction materials will be buried onsite. All personnel will be instructed by the General Contractor regarding the correct procedure for waste disposal.

(vii) Hazardous Waste

All hazardous waste materials will be disposed of in the manner specified by local or State regulation or by the manufacturer. Site personnel will be instructed in these practices by the General Contractor.

(viii) Sanitary Waste

All sanitary waste will be collected from the portable units a minimum of three times per week by a licensed sanitary waste management contractor, as required by local regulation.

(ix) Concrete/Asphalt from off-site locations All concrete and asphalt waste products originating from offsite shall be

disposed of in accordance with all local and State requirements. No concrete or asphalt waste material is to be “fly-dump” or buried onsite. All personnel will be instructed by the General Contractor regarding the correct procedure for waste disposal.

D. Approved State or Local Plans The Final Engineering Plans which have been reviewed and approved by the

local municipality shall be on site at all times and shall be followed unless otherwise notified in writing by the design engineer.

of 11

3. Maintenance All maintenance items listed in the Erosion Control Specifications on the Phase I and

Phase II Erosion Control Plans found in Appendix H are to be completed by the General Contractor or their appointed representative who is listed in the Certifications section of this SWPPP.

4. Inspections

A. Qualified Personnel (provided by the General Contractor) shall inspect: disturbed areas of the construction site that have not been finally stabilized, structural control measures, and locations where vehicles enter or exit the site at least once every seven calendar days and within 24 hours of the end of a storm that is 0.5 inches or greater or equivalent snowfall and shall continue until the site complies with the Final Stabilization section of this SWPPP. Qualified Personnel means a person knowledgeable in the principles and practices of erosion and sediment control measures, such as a licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.), a Certified Professional in Erosion and Sediment Control (CPESC), a Certified Erosion Sediment and Storm Water Inspector (CESSWI) or other knowledgeable person who possesses the skills to assess conditions at the construction site that could impact storm water quality and to assess the effectiveness of any sediment and erosion control measures selected to control the quality of storm water discharges from the construction activities.

B. Disturbed areas and areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation shall be inspected for evidence of, or the potential for, pollutants entering the drainage system. Erosion and sediment control measures identified in this SWPPP shall be observed to ensure that they are operating correctly. Where discharge locations or points are accessible, they shall be inspected to ascertain whether erosion control measures are effective in preventing significant impacts to receiving waters. Locations where vehicles enter or exit the site shall be inspected for evidence of offsite sediment tracking. The Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Inspection Report, found in Appendix E, is to be completed after each inspection and shall be added to this SWPPP.

C. Based on the results of the inspection, the description of potential pollutants sources identified in the plan and pollution prevention measures identified in the report shall be revised as indicated by the Qualified Personnel as soon as practicable after such inspection. Such modifications shall provide for timely implementation of any changes to the SWPPP within 7 calendar days following the inspection.

D. The Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Inspection Report, found in Appendix E, summarizing the scope of the inspection, name(s) and qualifications of personnel making the inspection, the date(s) of the inspection, major observations relating to the implementation of the storm water pollution prevention plan, and actions taken in accordance with paragraph b above shall be made and retained as part of this Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan for at least three years from the date that the permit coverage expires or is

of 11

terminated. The report shall be signed by the inspector as indicated and shall be attached to this SWPPP for review if requested.

E. The General Contractor shall complete and submit within 5 days an "Incidence of Noncompliance" (ION) report for any violation of the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan observed during an inspection conducted, including those not required by this SWPPP. Submission shall be on forms provided by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and included in Appendix C of this SWPPP and include specific information on the cause of noncompliance, actions which were taken to prevent any further causes of noncompliance, and a statement detailing any evidence impact which may have resulted from the noncompliance.

F. All reports of noncompliance shall be signed by a responsible authority as defined in Part VI.G (Signatory Requirements) of the General NPDES Permit No. ILR10.

G. All reports of noncompliance shall be: 1. Mailed to the Agency at the following address within 5 days of the Incidence

of Noncompliance: Illinois Environmental Protection Agency Division of Water Pollution Control Compliance Assurance Section 1021 North Grand Avenue East Post Office Box 19276 Springfield, Illinois 62794-9276 and 2. Emailed to the appropriate Agency Fields Operation Section Office within 24

hours: [email protected]

5. Non-Storm Water Discharges

Except for flows from fire fighting activities, sources of non-storm water that are combined with storm water discharges associated with industrial activity must be identified in this SWPPP by the General Contractor. This SWPPP shall identify and insure the implementation of appropriate pollution prevention measures for the non-storm water component(s) of the discharge.

6. Final Stabilization and Termination of NPDES Permit

A. A site can be considered finally stabilized when all soil disturbing activities have been completed and a uniform perennial vegetative cover with a density of 70% for the unpaved areas and areas not covered by permanent structures has been established. At this time, a Notice of Termination (NOT) form, found in Appendix D, should be filed by the Owner with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. The NOT must be submitted within 30 days of final stabilization. The General Contractor must complete the NOT. The NOT must be signed by the signatory (or equivalent position) on the NOI and subsequently submitted to the address on the NOT. The Owner must provide a completed copy of the NOT to the General Contractor for inclusion in this SWPPP. This filing terminates coverage under the General Permit and terminates the General Contractor's responsibility to implement the SWPPP.

mailto:[email protected]

B. The Notice of Termination shall include the following information:

(i) The mailing address, and location of the construction site for which the notification is submitted. Where a mailing address for the site is not available, the location can be described in terms of the latitude and longitude of the approximate center of the facility to the nearest 15 seconds, or the nearest quarter section (if the section, township and range is provided) that the construction site is located in;

(ii) The owner's name, address, telephone number, and status as Federal, State, private, public or other entity;

(iii) The name, address and telephone number of the General Contractors(s);

(iv) The following certification signed in accordance with Part VI.G (Signatory Requirements) of the General NPDES Permit No. ILR10:

"I certify under penalty of law that all storm water discharges associated with construction site activity from the identified facility that are authorized by NPDES General Permit ILR10 have otherwise been eliminated. I understand that by submitting this Notice of Termination, that I am no longer authorized to discharge storm water associated with construction site activity by the General Permit, and that discharging pollutants in storm water associated with construction site activity to Waters of the State is unlawful under the Environmental Protection Act and Clean Water Act where the discharge is not authorized by a NPDES permit. I also understand that the submittal of this Notice of Termination does not release an operator from liability for any violations of this permit or the Clean Water Act."

"For the purposes of this certification, elimination of storm water discharges associated with industrial activity means that all disturbed soils at the identified facility have been finally stabilized and temporary erosion and sediment control measures have been removed or will be removed at an appropriate time, or that all storm water discharges associated with construction activities from the identified site that are authorized by a NPDES General Permit have otherwise been eliminated."
