Note: The following language, taken from DEP's NPDES program and the model NPDES ordinance, is required to be incorporated into this chapter:
A. 
No person in the Borough shall allow, or cause to allow, stormwater discharges into the Borough's separate storm sewer system which are not composed entirely of stormwater, except (1) as provided in subsection B below, and (2) discharges allowed under a state or federal permit.
B. 
Discharges that may be allowed based on a finding by the Borough that the discharge(s) do not significantly contribute to pollution to surface waters of the commonwealth, are:
(1) 
Discharges from firefighting activities.
(2) 
Potable water sources, including dechlorinated waterline and fire hydrant flushings.
(3) 
Irrigation drainage.
(4) 
Routine external building washdown (which does not use detergents or other compounds).
(5) 
Air-conditioning condensate.
(6) 
Water from individual residential car washing.
(7) 
Spring water from crawl space pumps.
(8) 
Uncontaminated water from foundation or from footing drains.
(9) 
Flows from riparian habitats and wetlands.
(10) 
Lawn watering.
(11) 
Pavement washwaters where spills or leaks of toxic or hazardous materials have not occurred (unless all spill material has been removed) and where detergents are not used.
(12) 
Dechlorinated swimming pool discharges.
(13) 
Uncontaminated groundwater.
C. 
In the event that the Borough determines that any of the discharges identified in Subsection B significantly contribute to pollution of waters of the commonwealth, or is so notified by DEP, the Borough will notify the responsible person to cease the discharge.
D. 
Upon notice provided by the Borough under the Subsection C, the discharger will have a reasonable time, as determined by the Borough, to cease the discharge consistent with the degree of pollution caused by the discharge.
E. 
Nothing in this section shall affect a discharger's responsibilities under state law.
The following connections are prohibited, except as provided in § 513-38B above:
A. 
Any drain or conveyance, whether on the surface or subsurface, which allows any nonstormwater discharge including sewage, process wastewater and wash water to enter the separate storm sewer system and any connections to the storm drain system from indoor drains and sinks; and
B. 
Any drain or conveyance connected from a commercial or industrial land use to the separate storm sewer system which has not been documented in plans, maps or equivalent records and approved by the Borough.
A. 
Roof drains shall not be connected to streets, sanitary or storm sewers, or roadside ditches in order to promote overland flow and infiltration/percolation of stormwater where advantageous to do so.
B. 
When it is more advantageous to connect directly to streets or storm sewers, connections of roof drains to streets or roadside ditches may be permitted on a case-by-case basis, as determined by the Borough.
C. 
Roof drains shall discharge to infiltration areas or vegetative BMPs to the maximum extent practicable.
A. 
No person shall modify, remove, fill, landscape or alter any existing stormwater control or BMP unless it is part of an approved maintenance program without the written approval of the Borough.
B. 
No person shall place any structure, fill, landscaping or vegetation into a stormwater control or BMP or within a drainage easement which would limit or alter the functioning of the stormwater control or BMP without the written approval of the Borough.
