No application for approval of a land development activity shall be
reviewed until the appropriate council or board has received a stormwater
pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) prepared in accordance with the specifications
in this chapter. The submittal shall include:
A. The appropriate application forms;
B. Fees in accordance with the City of Middletown fee schedule;
C. The plans and material described below;
D. The SWPPP requirements and contents, described below;
and
E. The performance and design criteria set forth in this
chapter.
All SWPPPs shall provide the following background information and erosion
and sediment controls:
A. Background information about the scope of the project,
including location, type and size of project;
B. Site map/construction drawing(s) for the project, including
a general location map. At a minimum, the site map should show the total site
area at a scale of no smaller than one inch equals 100 feet; all improvements;
areas of disturbance; areas that will not be disturbed; existing vegetation;
on-site and adjacent off-site surface water(s); wetlands and drainage patterns
that could be affected by the construction activity; existing and final slopes;
locations of off-site material, waste, borrow or equipment storage areas;
and location(s) of the stormwater discharges(s);
C. Description of the soil(s) present at the site;
D. Construction phasing plan describing the intended sequence
of construction activities, including clearing and grubbing, excavation and
grading, utility and infrastructure installation, and any other activity at
the site that results in soil disturbance. Consistent with the New York Standards
and Specifications for Erosion and Sediment Control (Erosion Control Manual),
not more than three acres shall be disturbed at any one time unless pursuant
to an approved SWPPP;
E. Description of the pollution prevention measures that
will be used to control litter, construction chemicals and construction debris
from becoming a pollutant source in stormwater runoff;
F. Description of construction and waste materials, expected
to be stored on-site with updates as appropriate, and a description of controls
to reduce pollutants from these materials, including storage practices to
minimize exposure of the materials to stormwater, and spill prevention and
response;
G. Temporary and permanent structural and vegetative measures
to be used for soil stabilization, runoff control, and sediment control for
each stage of the project from initial land clearing and grubbing to project
close-out;
H. A site map/construction drawing(s) specifying the location(s),
size(s) and length(s) of each erosion and sediment control practice;
I. Dimensions, material specifications and installation
details for all erosion and sediment control practices, including the siting
and sizing of any temporary sediment basins;
J. Temporary practices that will be converted to permanent
control measures;
K. Implementation schedule for staging temporary erosion
and sediment control practices, including the timing of initial placement
and duration that each practice should remain in place;
L. Maintenance schedule to ensure continuous and effective
operation of the erosion and sediment control practice;
M. Name(s) of the receiving water(s);
N. Delineation of SWPPP implementation responsibilities
for each part of the site;
O. Description of structural practices designed to divert
flows from exposed soils, store flows, or otherwise limit runoff and the discharge
of pollutants from exposed areas of the site to the degree attainable; and
P. Any existing data that describes the stormwater runoff
at the site.
The applicant shall assure that all other applicable environmental permits
have been or will be acquired for the land development activity prior to approval
of the final stormwater design plan.
A copy of the SWPPP shall be retained at the site of the land development
activity during construction from the date of initiation of construction activities
to the date of final stabilization.
