ORDER NO. 01-34
NPDES NO. CAG 618005
WATERSHED-WIDE WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS
FOR
DISCHARGES OF STORM WATER RUNOFF ASSOCIATED WITH NEW DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
The California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Santa Ana Region
(hereinafter Regional Board) , finds that:
1. Federal regulations for controlling pollutants in storm water
discharges were promulgated by the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA) on November 16, 1990 (40 Code of Federal
Regulations (CPR) Parts 122, 123, and 124) . The final rule for
Phase II storm water program was published on December 8, 1999.
The regulations require discharges of storm water to surface
waters associated with new developments (construction activities)
including clearing, grading, and excavation activities (except
operations that result in disturbance of less than one acre of
total land area and which are not part of a larger common plan of
development or sale)lto obtain an NPDES permit and to implement
Best Available 'Technology Economically Achievable (BAT) and Best
Conventional Pollutant Control Technology (BCT) to reduce or
eliminate storm water pollution.
2. This Order regulates pollutants in discharges of storm water
associated with new developments (storm water discharges) to
surface waters from areas tributary to Lake Elsinore and Canyon
Lake (San Jacinto Watershed) . Order No. 01-34 is similar to the
State Water Resources Control Board's General Storm Water
Construction Activity (Water Quality Order No. 99-08-DWQ) (State
Board's General Construction Permit) expect for the following
changes:
a) Monitoring and reporting requirements have been added;
b) Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs) , Monitoring
Programs, and Post-construction Management Plans must be
submitted for approval in advance of construction
activities; and,
c) Offset provisions have been added.
1 Construction activities under five acres are not covered by this permit
ORDER NO. 01-34, NPDHS NO CAG 618005 PAGE 2 OF 38
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
These two Lakes are listed as impaired waters (listed under
Section 303 (d) of the Clean Water Act) . Federal regulations
require that a total maximum daily load (TMDL) be established for
303 (d) listed waterbodies for each pollutant of concern. The
TMDLs for Lake Elsinore and Canyon Lake are scheduled to be
established by 2004. In the absence of TMDLs, waste discharge
requirements must be established to control pollutants of concern
in discharges to 303 (d) listed waters. Discharges cannot cause
or contribute to water quality or beneficial use impairment.
3 . This Order does not preempt or supersede the authority of local
storm water management agencies to prohibit, restrict, or control
storm water discharges to separate storm sewer systems or other
watercourses within their jurisdiction, as allowed by State and
Federal law.
4. To obtain authorization for proposed storm water discharges to
any tributaries or for direct discharges to Canyon Lake and Lake
Elsinore, this Order requiries that the discharger submit a
Notice of Intent (NOI) with a vicinity map and a fee of $250 to
the Regional Board office prior to commencement of construction
activities. In addition, coverage under this Order shall not
commence until the applicant develops an acceptable Storm Water
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) , including a Monitoring and
Reporting Program and a Post-construction Management Plan in
accordance with the requirements of Section A (Storm Water
Pollution Prevention Plan) , Section B (Monitoring Program) , and
Section C(Post-construction Management Plan)of this Order. For
proposed new developments conducted on easements or on nearby
property by agreement or permission, or by an owner or lessee of
a mineral estate (oil, gas, geothermal, aggregate, precious
metals, and/or industrial minerals) entitled to conduct the
activities, the entity responsible for the new development must
submit the NOI and filing fee and shall be responsible for
development of the SWPPP, Monitoring and Reporting Program and
Post-construction Management Plan.
S. If an alternative Order is subsequently adopted that covers storm
water discharges regulated by this Order, the applicability of
this Order to such discharges is automatically terminated on the
effective date of the alternative Order or the date of approval
for coverage under the subsequent Order. In certain areas of the
watershed, discharges from new developments may not affect Canyon
Lake or Lake Elsinore. Developments in those areas may be
exempted from coverage under this permit; however, coverage under
the State Board's General Permit is still required.
5. The adoption of waste discharge requirements is exempt from the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public
ORDER NO. 0I-34, NPDES NO CAG 618005 PAGE 3 OF 38
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN TACI1VT0 WATERSHED
Resources Code Section 21100, et seq. ) in accordance with section
13389 of the California Water Code.
7. A revised Water Quality Control Plan (Basin Plan) became
effective on January 24, 1995. The Basin Plan contains
beneficial uses and water quality objectives for waters in the
Santa Ana Region. The requirements contained in this order are
necessary to implement the Basin Plan. Dischargers regulated by
this Order must comply with the water quality standards in the
1995 Basin Plan and subsequent amendments thereto.
8 . All discharges regulated under this Order are tributary to Lake
Elsinore or Canyon Lake.
The beneficial uses of Lake Elsinore include:
a. Water contact recreation,
b. Non-contact water recreation,
C. Warm freshwater habitat, and
d. Wildlife habitat.
The beneficial uses of Canyon Lake include:
a. Water contact recreation,
b. Non-contact water recreation,
C. Warm freshwater habitat,
d. Wildlife habitat,
e. Municipal and domestic supply,
f. Agricultural supply, and
g. Groundwater recharge.
9. Storm water and non-storm water discharges associated with new
developments are a potential source of pollutants. Furthermore,
storm water and non-storm water discharges associated with new
developments have the reasonable potential to cause or contribute
to an excursion above water quality standards for sediment,
nutrients, pathogens, and toxic pollutants in Lake Elsinore and
Canyon Lake.
10. This Order includes narrative effluent limits, discharge
prohibitions, and receiving water limitations.
11 . Certain types of non-storm water discharges are authorized under
specified conditions. To the extent practicable, non-storm water
discharges should be minimized through retention or by
discharging to the sanitary sewer.
12. It is expected that with appropriate best management practices,
structural controls, and elimination of most of the non-storm
ORDER NO. 01-3 4, NPDES NO CAG 62 80 05
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAY JAC.IYTO WATERSHED PAGE 4 OF 3 8
water, the new developments should not cause or contribute to
water quality standards impairment. An intensive monitoring
effort is being developed to determine the effectiveness of these
efforts. Should the monitoring results indicate continued
violations of water quality objectives, additional BMPs and other
control measures will be required.
13 . Following public notice in accordance with State and Federal laws
and regulations, the Regional Board in a public meeting on
November 17, 2000, heard and considered all comments concerning
this Order. The Regional Board has prepared written responses to
all significant comments.
14 . This Order shall serve as an NPDES permit in compliance with
section 402 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and shall take effect
upon adoption by the Regional Board, provided the Regional
Administrator of the USEPA has no objection. If the USEPA
Regional Administrator objects to its issuance, the Order shall
not become effective until such objection is withdrawn.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that all dischargers who file an NOI indicating
their intention to be regulated under the provisions of this Order
shall comply with the following:
I . DISCHARGE PROHIBITIONS:
1 . Authorization to discharge wastes pursuant to this Order does not
constitute an exemption to applicable discharge prohibitions
prescribed in the Basin Plan.
2 . Discharges of material other than storm water, which are not
otherwise authorized by waste discharge requirements issued by
this Board or the State Water Resources Control Board, to a
municipal separate storm sewer system or to waters of the State,
are prohibited, except as allowed in Special Provisions for
Construction Activity,V.3 .
3 . Storm water discharges shall not cause or threaten to cause
conditions of pollution, contamination, or nuisance as defined in
Section 13050 of the California Water Code.
4 . Storm water discharges regulated by this Order shall not contain
a hazardous substance equal to or in excess of a reportable
quantity listed in 40 CFR Part 117 and/or 40 CPR Part 302.
ORDER NO- 01-34, NPDES NO CAG 618005

II . RECEIVING WATER LIMITATIONS:
1 . Storm water discharges and authorized non-storm water discharges
to any surface or groundwater shall not adversely impact human
health or the environment.
2 . The SWPPP, Monitoring and Reporting Program and the Post-
construction Management Plan developed for the new developments
covered by this Order shall be designed and implemented such that
storm water discharges and authorized non-storm water discharges
shall not cause or contribute to an exceedance of any applicable
water quality standards contained in the Basin Plan.
3 . Should it be determined by the discharger, a local agency, or the
Regional Board that storm water discharges and/or authorized non-
storm water discharges are causing or contributing to an
exceedance of an applicable water quality standard, the
discharger shall:
a. Implement corrective measures immediately following
discovery that water quality standards were exceeded,
followed by notification to the Regional Board by telephone
as soon as possible, but no later than 24 hours, after the
discharge has been discovered. This notification shall be
followed by a written report within 5-calendar days to the
Regional Board, unless otherwise directed by the Regional
Board, describing (1) the nature and cause of the water
quality standards exceedance; (2) the BMPs currently being
implemented; (3) any additional BMPs that will be
implemented to prevent or reduce pollutants that are causing
or contributing to the exceedance of water quality standards; and (4) any maintenance or repair of BMPs- This
report shall include an implementation schedule for
corrective actions and shall describe the actions taken to
control the pollutants causing or contributing to the
exceedance.
b. The discharger shall revise its SWPPP and monitoring program
immediately after the report to the Regional Board to
incorporate the additional BMPs that have been and will be
implemented, the implementation schedule, and any additional

STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN 7ACI17TO WATERSHED
The discharger has the option of proposing offsets for pollutants that
may be discharged from the project site. The discharger should be
able to accurately determine the amount of each pollutant discharged
from the project site and should provide an acceptable offset to
remove at least the same amount of pollutants from the watershed. For
an offset program to be acceptable, the pollutant under consideration
should not have an immediate adverse impact on the environment, it
must be quantifiable, and the same pollutant must be removed from
within the watershed. Acceptable offset programs may include: (1)
participation in Lake dredging programs to remove sediment and
phosphorus, (2) participation in alum treatment of the Lake to remove
phosphorus, (3) treatment and/or removal of dairy wastes from the
watershed to remove nitrogen and phosphorus compounds, (4)
construction of treatment wetlands to remove nitrogen compounds and
sediments, and (5) development and implementation or participation in
other structural and/or non-structural control measures~to control the
discharge of listed pollutants.
All proposals for offsets should be included in the SWPPP.

ORDER NO. 01-34, NPDES NO CAG 618005 PAGE 14 OF 38
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
6. Erosion Control
Erosion control, also referred to as "soil stabilization" is the
most effective way to retain soil and sediment on the
construction site. The most efficient way to address erosion
control is to preserve existing vegetation where feasible, to
limit disturbance, and to stabilize and re-vegetate disturbed
areas as soon as possible after grading or construction.
Particular attention must be paid to large mass graded sites
where the potential for soil exposure to the erosive effects of
rainfall and wind is great. Mass graded construction sites may
be exposed for several years while a project is being built out.
Thus, there is potential for significant sediment discharge from
the site to surface waters.
At a minimum, the discharger/operator must implement an effective
combination of erosion and sediment control on all-disturbed
areas during the rainy season. These disturbed areas include
rough graded roadways, slopes, and building pads. Until
permanent vegetation is established, soil cover is the most cost-
effective and expeditious method to protect soil particles from
detachment and transport by rainfall. Temporary soil
stabilization can be the single-most important factor in reducing
erosion at construction sites. The discharger shall consider
measures such as: covering with mulch, temporary seeding, soil
stabilizers, binders, fiber rolls or blankets, temporary
vegetation, permanent seeding, and a variety of other measures.
The SWPPP shall include a description of the erosion control
practices, including a time schedule, to be implemented during
construction to minimize erosion on disturbed areas of a
construction site. The discharger must consider the full range
of erosion control BMPs. The discharger must consider any
additional site-specific and seasonal conditions when selecting
and implementing appropriate BMPs. The above-listed erosion
control measures are examples of what should be considered and
are not exclusive of new or innovative approaches currently
available or being developed.
a. The SWPPP shall include:
(1) An outline of the areas of vegetative soil cover or
native vegetation onsite, which will remain
undisturbed during the. construction project.
(2) An outline of all areas of soil disturbance including
cut or fill areas which will be stabilized during the
rainy season by temporary or permanent erosion control
measures, such as seeding, mulch, or blankets, etc.
ORDER NO. 01-34, NPDES NO CAG 518005 PAGE 15 OF 38
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
(3) An outline of the areas of soil disturbance, cut, or
fill which will be left exposed during any part of the
rainy season, representing areas of potential soil
erosion where sediment control BMPs are required to be
used during construction.
(4) A proposed schedule for the implementation of erosion
control measures.
b. The SWPPP shall include a description of the BMPs and
control practices to be used for both temporary and
permanent erosion control measures.
c_ The SWPPP shall include a description of the BMPs to reduce
wind erosion at all times, with particular attention paid to
stock-piled materials. -
7. Stabilization
a. All disturbed areas of the construction site must be
stabilized. Final stabilization for the purposes of
submitting a NOT is satisfied when
(1) All soil disturbing activities are completed AND
EITHER OF THE TWO FOLLOWING CRITERIA ARE MET:
(a) A uniform vegetative cover with 70 percent
coverage has been established OR:
(b) Equivalent stabilization measures have been
employed. These measures include the use
of such BMPs as blankets, reinforced
channel liners, soil cement, fiber
matrices, geotextiles, or other erosion
resistant soil coverings or treatments.
b. Where background native vegetation covers less than 100
percent of the surface, such as in arid areas, the 70
percent coverage criteria is adjusted as follows: If the
native vegetation covers 50 percent of the ground surface,
70 percent of 50 percent ( .70 X .50=.35) would require 35
percent total uniform surface coverage.
8. Sediment Control
The SWPPP shall include a description or illustration of BMPs
that will be implemented to prevent a net increase of sediment
ORDER NO. 02-34, NPDES NO GAG 628005 PAGE 16 OF 38
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
load in storm water discharge relative to pre-construction
levels. Sediment control BMPs are required at appropriate
locations along the site perimeter and at all operational
internal inlets to the storm drain system at all times during the
rainy season. Sediment control practices may include filtration
devices and barriers (such as fiber rolls, silt fence, straw bale
barriers, and gravel inlet filters) and/or settling devices (such
as sediment traps or basins) . Effective filtration devices,
barriers, and settling devices shall be selected, installed and
maintained properly. A proposed schedule for deployment of
sediment control BMPs shall be included in the SWPPP. These are
the most basic measures to prevent sediment from leaving the
project site and moving into receiving waters. Limited
exemptions may be authorized by the EXECUTIVE OFFICER when work
on active areas precludes the use of sediment control BMPs
temporarily. Under these conditions, the SWPPP must describe a
plan to establish perimeter controls prior to the onset of rain.
During the non-rainy season, the discharger is responsible for
ensuring that adequate sediment control materials are available
to control sediment discharges at the downgrade perimeter and
operational inlets in the event of a predicted storm. The
discharger shall consider a full range of sediment controls, in
addition to the controls listed above, such as straw bale dikes,
earth dikes, brush barriers, drainage swales, check dams,
subsurface drain, sandbag dikes, fiber rolls, or other controls.
At a minimum, the discharger/operator must implement an effective
combination of erosion and sediment control on all disturbed
areas during the rainy season.
If the discharger chooses to rely on sediment basins for
treatment purposes, sediment basins shall, at a minimum, be

ORDER NO. 01-34, NPDES NO. CAG 618005
WATERSHED-WIDE WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS FOR
STORM WATER DISCHARGES ASSOCIATED WITH NEW DEVELOPMENTS
IN THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
I . BACKGROUND
A. REGULATORY BACKGROUND: NPDES PERMITS FOR STORM WATER
DISCHARGES
In 1972, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (also referred to as
the Clean Water Act [CWA3 ) was amended to provide that the discharge
of pollutants to waters of the United States' from any point source' is
unlawful unless the discharge is in compliance with a National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. The 1987
amendments to the CWA added Section 402 (p) , which establishes a
framework for regulating municipal and industrial (including
construction sites) storm water' discharges under the NPDES Program.
On November 16, 1990, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) .
published final regulations that establish storm water permit
application requirements for specified categories of industries. The
final rule for Phase II of storm water discharges was published by
USEPA on December 8, 1999. The regulations provide that discharges of
storm water to waters of the United States from construction projects
that encompass one or more acres of soil disturbance are effectively
prohibited unless the discharges are in compliance with an NPDES
Permit.
A number of permitting options are available for regulating storm
water discharges from construction sites. The State Water Resources
Control Board (State Board) issued a Statewide General Permit for
Storm Water Discharges Associated with Construction Activity (General
Permit) . The Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board adopted a
separate NPDES permit for the Lake Tahoe Hydrologic Unit, and the
State Board adopted a separate NPDES permit for Caltrans projects.
Currently, all construction projects within this Regional Board's
jurisdiction are regulated under the General Permit. However, as
discussed below, it is necessary to issue a watershed-wide storm water
permit for new developments` for the San Jacinto watershed'. The
applicability of this Order to ongoing construction activities in the
area will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
Please see definitions at the end of the Fact Sheet
B. NEED FOR STORM WATER PERMIT FOR NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN SAN
JACINTO WATERSHED
FACT SHEET FOR ORDER 01-34 PAGE 2 OF 14
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
The CWA requires the states to adopt water quality standards (water
quality standards include designated beneficial uses` and narrative and
numeric water quality objectives designed to protect the designated
beneficial uses) .
The CWA also requires all states to conduct water quality assessments
of their water resources to identify waterbodies that do not meet
water quality standards. The waterbodies that do not meet water
quality standards are placed on a list of impaired waters pursuant to
the requirements of Section 303 (d) of the CWA. The Regional Board
placed Lake Elsinore and Canyon Lake on the 303 (d) list of impaired
waters in 1994 . Lake Elsinore and Canyon Lake are the terminal points
for the San Jacinto watershed. The designated beneficial uses of
these Lakes include:
Lake Elsinore:
a. Water contact recreation,
b. Non-contact water recreation,
c. Warm freshwater habitat, and
d. Wildlife habitat.
Canyon Lake:
a. Water contact recreation,
b. Non-contact water recreation,
c. Warm freshwater habitat,
d. Wildlife habitat,
e. Municipal and domestic supply,
f. Agricultural supply, and
g. Groundwater recharge.
Water quality problems adversely affecting these uses and their causes

Federal regulations require that a TMDL be established for each 303 (d)
listed waterbody for each of the pollutants causing impairment. The
TMDL is the total amount of the problem pollutant that can be
discharged while water quality standards in the receiving water are
attained, i.e. , water quality objectives are met and the beneficial
uses are protected. A TMDL is the sum of the individual wasteload
allocations (WLA) for point source inputs, load allocations (LA) for
non-point source' inputs and natural background, with a margin of
safety. The WLAs are the basis for limitations established in waste
discharge requirements issued to point source discharges. The
Regional Board prioritized its TMDL process for the 303 (d) listed
waterbodies within the Region. The TMDLs for Lake Elsinore and Canyon
Lake are scheduled to be established by 2004 . In the absence of WLAs,
waste discharge requirements must be established using best
professional judgment based on existing information and must include

measures/limitations necessary to ensure that discharges do not
contribute to the water quality problems in impaired waters.
Except for purchased Colorado River water discharges to Canyon Lake by
Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (3 times during the last 10
years) , most of the discharge to these two Lakes comes from storm
water flows from the San Jacinto watershed. In addition, there are
some nuisance flows during dry weather and at other times into these
Lakes. Occasionally (3 times during the last 10 years) , Canyon Lake
flows into the San Jacinto River, which discharges to Lake Elsinore.
Under heavy and chronic storm conditions, Lake Elsinore overflows to
Temescal Wash (2 times during the last 10 years) . Except for these
rare overflows, both of these Lakes are essentially closed systems.
The storm water discharges and non-storm water discharges are
substantial contributors to water quality impairment in the Lakes.
Any runoff from new developments, if not properly managed and
regulated, could further exacerbate this problem both during and after
construction. The major pollutants of concern during the construction
phase include: sediments, oils, grease, paints, gasoline, adhesives,
concrete truck washdown, raw materials used in the manufacture of
concrete and other construction materials, solvents, litter, debris,
and sanitary wastes. The pollutants of concern after. construction is
complete include: nutrients from lawn fertilizers, pesticides and
herbicides, bacteria from pet and human wastes, metals acid other toxic
substances from street and highway runoff (from tires, brake pads,
etc. ) , oils, grease, petroleum products, antifreeze from automobiles,
phosphates from phosphate-based detergents and fertilizers, litter,
debris, sanitary wastes, and other wastes from illegal dumping_
Generally, sediment discharges should decrease once the area is fully
developed and stabilized. However, storm water flow .is expected to
increase due to an increase in the impervious surface area.
A number of developments are proposed in the Lake Elsinore, Canyon
Lake and other tributary areas. The following table shows the current
land uses and the proposed acreage for new developments:

STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN -TACINTO WATERSHED
The proposed developments are only a small fraction of the total land
area within the watershed. However, the developments could cause
significant changes in the quality of runoff from the site and thereby
contribute to the existing impairment of the lakes. For example, there
is almost a 200 fold increase in the amount of sediment from an active
construction site compared to grassland. If proper control measures,
pursuant to a SWPPP, are implemented at the construction site, most of
the sediment discharges should be controlled. Post-construction
discharges from the developments are likely to include pollutants now
causing water quality standards impairment in Lake Elsinore and Canyon
Lake. Unless properly regulated, such discharges would contribute to
the impairment. Discharges of sediment or other pollutants from the
developments must not cause or contribute to a violation of water
quality standards for the receiving waters.
The State Board's General Permit is currently used in most parts of
the State to regulate storm water discharges from construction sites.
The General Permit relies on the development and implementation of
storm water pollution prevention plans (SWPPP) and Best Management
Practices (BMPs) to assure that the water quality standards
(beneficial uses and water quality objectives) of affected receiving
waters are protected. Several environmental organizations filed suit
against the State Board, arguing that the SWPPP/BMP provisions of the
General Permit do not comply with the Clean Water Act mandate for
effluent limitations that prevent violations of water quality
standards. In a July 27, 2000 preliminary ruling, the Sacramento
Superior Court rejected this argument and held that BMPs qualify as
water-quality based effluent limitations that satisfy the Clean Water
Act mandate, even for waters listed as impaired under Section 303 (d)
of the Act. However, the Court found that the Sate Board needs to
include provisions in the General Permit that require more specific
monitoring designed to determine the effectiveness of the BMPs and
SWPPPs. Currently, the General Permit provides the Regional Boards
with discretionary authority to require submittal of SWPPPs,
Monitoring Programs, Post-construction Management Plans, and
additional monitoring, including sampling and analysis of storm water
discharges from construction sites. This NPDES permit differs from
the General Permit only in that it exercises this discretionary
authority by requiring the dischargers to monitor storm water
discharges from their sites and to submit SWPPPs, Monitoring Programs
and Post-construction Management Plans.
In the absence of WLAs, specified in TMDLs for construction projects
in the area, these amendments to the General Permit are necessary to
properly regulate and monitor the discharges from all new developments
in the area. Adoption of this amended permit would allow these
developments to proceed prior to the expected completion of the
Elsinore/Canyon Lake TMDLs in 2004 .

II . PERMIT REQUIREMENTS/REGULATORY BASIS
The proposed order includes BMP requirements, narrative limits,
prohibitions, and receiving water limitations. Additionally, the
order requires all dischargers, where new development disturbs five
acres or more, to:
1) Develop and implement a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan
(SWPPP) , approved by the Executive Officer, that specifies Best
Management Practices' (BMPs) to minimize pollutants in storm water
runoff.
2) Develop and implement an approved Monitoring and Reporting Program
and an Inspection Program, including pre-, during- and post-
construction monitoring to identify and quantify pollutants in storm
water runoff from the site. This could be included in the SWPPP.
3) Develop and implement an approved Post-Construction Management
Program; this program should identify parties responsible for the
long-term operation and maintenance of any structural or
programmatic controls proposed in the Post-Construction Management
Program and long-term funding mechanisms for operation and
maintenance. This could also be included in the SWPPP.
The Order accompanying this Fact Sheet regulates storm water runoff
from new developments within the San Jacinto watershed. Dischargers10
are required to submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) to obtain coverage.
under this Order. It is expected once the TMDLs are developed for the
Lakes, this Order will be revised. When this occurs, those dischargers
will be regulated under the revised Order.
A. PROHIBITIONS
This Order authorizes the discharge of storm water to surface waters
from new developments that result in the disturbance of five or more
acres of land. It prohibits the discharge of materials other than
storm water and authorized non-storm water. It also prohibits the
discharge of a hazardous substance in excess of reportable quantities
established at 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 117.3 or 40 CFR
302.4 unless a separate NPDES Permit has been issued to regulate those
discharges. In addition, this order contains provisions that uphold
discharge prohibitions contained in the Water Quality Control Plan for
the Santa Ana River Basin (Basin Plan) .
B. EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS
This order is an interim control measure for discharges to impaired
waters. This interim control measure should at least ensure that the
current water quality is maintained and/or improved until TMDLs are
adopted. It is expected that the requirements for appropriate BMPs
California Environmental Protection Agency
Recycled Paper
FACT SHEET FOR ORDER 01-34 PAGE 7 OF 14
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
and other control measures will achieve this objective and that the
monitoring program will determine compliance with the permit
conditions. The TMDLs will be designed to improve water quality in the
Lakes, and eventually to restore all beneficial uses_
Permits for storm water discharges associated with new development
shall meet all applicable provisions of Sections 301 and 402 of the
CWA. These provisions require controls of pollutant discharges that
utilize best available technology economically achievable (BAT) and
best conventional pollutant control technology (BCT) to reduce
pollutants, and any more stringent controls necessary to meet water
quality standards. It is anticipated that the water quality standards
will be met through implementation of appropriately developed SWPPPs,
Monitoring Programs, and Post-construction Management Plans.
If the monitoring program indicates that the provisions of this Order
are not being met, additional control measures are required.
Another major problem with construction sites is the discharge of
pollutants in non-storm water. Non-storm water discharges include a
wide variety of sources, such as water line flushing, landscape
irrigation, diverted stream flows, foundation drains, agricultural
irrigation water, water from crawl spaces, street washdown, footing
drains, individual car washing, improper dumping, spills, or leakage
from storage tanks or transfer areas. Non-storm water discharges may
contribute a significant pollutant load to receiving waters. The
proposed order authorizes certain types of non-storm water discharges
under specified conditions. Measures to control spills, leaks, and
dumping and to prevent illicit connections during construction shall
be addressed through structural as well as non-structural BMPs.
The requirements of this order are intended to be implemented on a
year-round basis, not just during the part of the year when there is a
high probability of a precipitation event that results in storm water
runoff. The order must be implemented at the appropriate level and in
a proactive manner during all seasons while construction is ongoing.
Post-construction management of runoff from the area is another
important facet of the proposed order.
C. RECEIVING WATER LIMITATIONS
Construction related activities that cause or contribute to an
exceedance of water quality standards must be corrected immediately
and cannot wait for the Regional Board to approve a plan of action to
correct. The dynamic nature of new development allows the discharger
the ability to more quickly identify and correct the source of the
exceedances. Therefore, the discharger is required to take immediate
corrective action and to provide a report to the Executive Officer
within 5-calendar days of the violation describing the violation and
the corrective action.
California Environmental Protection Agency
Rccvcled Paper
FACT SHEET FOR ORDER 01-34 PAGE 8 OF 14
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
D. STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
This order requires development and implementation of a SWPPP. This
document emphasizes the use of appropriately selected, correctly
installed and maintained pollution reduction BMPs, a monitoring and
reporting program and a post-construction management program. This
approach provides the flexibility necessary to establish BMPs that can
effectively address source control of pollutants during various phases
of construction, and for post-construction management programs .
All dischargers will be required to prepare and implement a SWPPP
prior to disturbing a site. The SWPPP must be implemented at the
appropriate level to protect water quality at all times throughout the
life of the project. Non-storm water BMPs must be implemented year-
round. The SWPPP must remain on the site while the site is under
construction, commencing with the initial mobilization11_, and ending
with the termination of coverage under the permit.
The SWPPP has two major objectives: (1) to help identify the sources
of sediment and other pollutants that affect the quality of storm
water and non-storm water discharges and (2) to describe and ensure
the implementation of BMPs to reduce or eliminate sediment and other
pollutants in storm water discharges. The SWPPP must include BMPs
that address source control and, if necessary, must also include BMPs
that address pollutant control.
Required elements of a SWPPP include: (1) site description addressing
the elements and characteristics specific to the site, (2)
descriptions of BMPs for erosion and sediment controls, (3) BMPs for
construction waste handling and disposal, (4) implementation of
approved local plans, (5) proposed post-construction controls,
including description of local post-construction erosion and sediment
control requirements, and (6) non-storm water management.
To ensure that the preparation, implementation, and oversight of the
SWPPP is sufficient for effective pollution prevention, individuals
responsible for creating, revising, overseeing, and implementing the
SWPPP must participate in applicable training programs and document
such training in the SWPPP.
SWPPPs are reports that are available to the public under Section
308 (b) of the CWA and will be made available by the Regional Board
upon request.
E. RUN-ON FROM UPSTREAM SOURCES AND THE MONITORING PROGRAM
Another major feature of the order is the development and
implementation of a monitoring and reporting program. A number of
dischargers have expressed concern regarding potential pollutants from
upstream sources_ In such cases, it is necessary to establish the
California Environmental Protection Agency
Recycled Paper
FACT SHEET FOR ORDER 01-34 PAGE 9 OF 14
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACInTO WATERSHED
quality of storm water run-on from upstream sources to determine the
amount of pollutant discharges from the site. The monitoring program
should include any proposed pre-construction, during- and post-
construction monitoring, and any monitoring of run-on from upstream
sources. To minimize monitoring cost, the discharger may use data
from other published and reliable sources.
All dischargers are also required to conduct inspections of the
construction site prior to anticipated storm events and after actual
storm events. During extended storm events, inspections must be made
during each 24-hour period. The goals of these inspections are: (1)
to identify areas contributing to a storm water discharge; (2) to
evaluate whether measures to reduce pollutant loadings identified in
the SWPPP are adequate and properly installed and functioning in
accordance with the terms of the order; (3) to determine whether
additional control practices or corrective maintenance activities are
needed to insure compliance with the terms and conditions of this
order; and (4) to sample and analyze the discharge. _ Equipment,
materials, and workers must be available for rapid response to
failures and emergencies. All corrective maintenance to BMPs must be
performed as soon as possible, depending upon worker safety.
The monitoring program is intended to determine the effectiveness of
the control measures and to determine pollutant levels in the
discharges from construction projects. A well-developed monitoring
program will provide a good method for checking the effectiveness of
the SWPPP.
F. POST-CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT PLAN
The Post-construction Management Plan must include structural and non-
structural control measures, public education programs, and other
storm water and non-storm water management programs to ensure control
of pollutants in discharges from new developments. It should also
identify mechanisms and responsible parties for funding, operation and
maintenance.
Under the Riverside County Area-wide Urban Storm Water Runoff Permit,
the municipalities are responsible for discharges from storm water
conveyance systems owned and/or operated by them. It is anticipated
that in most cases, the post-construction management of storm water
from new developments, including any structural controls, will also be
the responsibility of the municipalities.
G. OFFSET PROVISIONS
In certain cases, economics may dictate that it is cost effective to
remove a pollutant after its discharge from the project site (e.g. ,
nutrient removal utilizing a wetland area constructed outside the
project site. ) The order provides the discharger an option to propose
offsets for pollutant discharges. To be acceptable, the offset

Recvcled Paper
FACT SKEET FOR ORDER 01-34 PAGE 10 OF 14
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
proposal should be only for pollutants that will not have an immediate
impact on the environment and the pollutants should be removed from
the impacted watershed.
H. REPORTING RE UIREMENTS
Each discharger must certify annually during the life of the project
that the new developments were in compliance with the requirements of
this order. Dischargers who cannot certify annual compliance must
notify the Executive Officer at the time of submittal of the annual
report on August 1 (see additional reporting requirements in the next
paragraph) .
The dischargers must report all serious violations (violations that
could have an immediate adverse impact on human health or the
environment) to the Executive Officer by phone within 24 hours of
becoming aware of the violation.' A written report is required to be
submitted within 5 days. An annual report including a summary of all
inspection reports, analytical results, and annual certification is to
be submitted by all dischargers to the Regional Board office by August
1, of each year covering activities for July 1 to June 30.
III . RETENTION OF RECORDS
The discharger is required to retain records of all monitoring
information, copies of all reports required by this order, and records
of all data used to complete the NOI for all new developments to be
covered by the order for a period of at least three years from the
date generated. This period may be extended by request of the
Executive Officer.
IV. TYPES OF NEW DEVELOPMENTS COVERED BY THIS ORDER
New developments subject to this order include any clearing, grading,
disturbances to the ground such as stockpiling, or excavation that
results in soil disturbances of at least five acres of total land
area. New developments that result in soil disturbances of less than
five acres are subject to this Order if the new development is part of
a larger common plan of development that encompasses five or more
acres of soil disturbance or if there is significant potential for
water quality impairment resulting from the activity. New
developments do not include routine maintenance to maintain original
line and grade, hydraulic capacity, or original purpose of a facility,
nor do they include emergency new developments required to protect
public health and safety. Dischargers should confirm with the
Regional Board office whether or not a particular routine maintenance
activity is subject to this order.
A construction project that includes a dredge and/or fill discharge to
any jurisdictional surface water (e.g. , wetland, channel, pond, or
marine water) will also need, a CWA Section 404 permit from the U.S.
California Environmental Protection Agency

Certification from the Regional Board.
V. NOTIFICATION PLAN APPROVAL REQUIREMENTS
A. NEW DEVELOPMENT
It is the responsibility of the discharger to obtain coverage under
this order and to have the plans and programs approved by the Executive
Officer of the Regional Board prior to commencement of new
developments. To obtain coverage, the discharger must file a NOI with
the Regional Board office, including a vicinity map and a fee of $250.
In addition, coverage under this permit shall not occur until the
SWPPP, the Monitoring and Reporting Program and the Post-construction
Management Program are approved by the Executive Officer. Section A of
the Order outlines the required contents of a SWPPP, the Monitoring
Program and the Post-construction Management Program. For proposed new
development on easements or on nearby property by agreement or
permission, the entity responsible for the new development must file a
NOI and filing fee and shall be responsible for development of the
SWPPP, Monitoring and Reporting Program, and Post-construction
Management Plan, all of which must occur prior to commencement of new
developments.
A separate NOI must be submitted to the Regional Board for each
construction site. Dischargers proposing new developments must file a
NOI prior to the commencement of construction.
The NOI requirements of the Order are intended to establish a
mechanism that can be used to clearly identify the responsible
parties, locations, and scope of operations of dischargers covered by
the Order and to document the discharger's knowledge of the
requirements for a SWPPP.
The NOI must be sent to the following address:
Regional Water Quality Control Board

Riverside, CA 92501-3348
The current annual fee for this NPDES permit is $250 . ev/SF� lt*r_g--o3
When construction is complete or ownership has been transferred,
dischargers shall file a Notice of Termination to the above address
certifying that all State and local requirements have been met in
accordance with Special Provisions for Construction Activity, C.7, of
the Order.
Dischargers who fail to obtain coverage under this Order for storm
water discharges to surface waters will be in violation of the CWA and
California Environmental Protection Agency
. ' Recycled Paper
FACT SHEET FOR ORDER 01-34 PAGE 12 OF 14
STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN JACINTO WATERSHED
the California Water Code. The CWA and the California Water Code
provide for civil and criminal penalties for such violations.
B. EXISTING DEVELOPMENTS
All ongoing construction activities will be reviewed on a case-by-case
basis to determine the applicability of this Order.
VI . AREAS COVERED UNDER THIS PERMIT:
All proponents of new developments in areas tributary to Canyon Lake
and/or Lake Elsinore are required to be covered under this permit.
This includes most areas within the Cities of Canyon Lake, Idyllwild,
Hemet, Lake Elsinore, Perris, San Jacinto, Sun City and portions of
Moreno Valley and unincorporated county areas tributary to these
areas. However, it is recognized that runoff from some of these areas
may not reach these Lakes. As discussed below, exemptions from
coverage under this permit can be granted.
VII . EXEMPTIONS •
If the project proponent provides sufficient proof (area hydrology and
topography, historic runoff data, retention ponds or other runoff
control structures, etc. ) that a proposed project would not impact
water quality in Canyon Lake and/or Lake Elsinore, an exemption from
coverage under this permit can be granted. Any requests for an
exemption from this permit must be submitted to the 'Executive Officer,
with all supporting documentation, at least 60 days prior to any earth
disturbing activities. The Executive Officer will inform the
discharger if an exemption is granted. If an exemption from this
permit is granted, coverage under the State Board' s General Permit may
still be required.
VIII . COST ANALYSIS :
This Order proposes to implement the State' s General Permit, but
specifically requires monitoring for storm water runoff from project
sites or participation in a watershed-wide monitoring program.
Generally, monitoring is not required under the General Permit (the
July 27, 2000 Sacramento Superior Court ruling might require the State
to add this requirement to the General Permit) . Therefore, this cost
analysis only considers the incremental cost of monitoring and
analysis of storm water runoff from project sites. The requirements
include monitoring of three storm events per wet season and analyzing
for sediments, nutrients, toxicity, pH, and total and fecal coli€orm
bacteria. The following analytical costs include sample pickup, are
based on Regional Board' s contract laboratory costs, and are expected
to be representative of the costs for most laboratories in the area.
Total suspended solids (sediments) =$7.00
California Environmental Protection Agency
Rec sled Paper

STORM WATER PERMIT FOR THE SAN TACINT0 WATERSHED
Combined nutrient analysis (nitrogen
and phosphorus compounds) =$60.00
Acute toxicity testing =$150 .00
pH
=$4 .00
Total coliform =$15.00
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Total analytical cost per sample
This estimate does not include costs for collecting the samples.
Since samples are required to be collected only during normal
operating hours, it is expected that construction site personnel would
be available to perform this task and the incremental cost for this
would be minimal_
It is also likely that each construction site may have more than one
discharge location. The order provides an option for reducing the
number of monitoring locations by selecting representative sampling
locations.

quality of discharges of storm water associated with construction activity
(storm water discharges)from the construction site, and
b) Identify non-storm water discharges
c) Identification, construction, implementation, and maintenance of Best
Management Practices(BMPs)to reduce or eliminate pollutants in storm
water discharges and authorized non-storm water discharges from the
construction site during construction, and
d) Develop a maintenance schedule for BMPs installed during construction
designed to reduce or eliminate pollutants after construction is completed
(post-construction BMPs).
e) Identify a sampling and analysis strategy and sampling schedule for
discharges from construction activity which discharge directly into water
bodies listed on Attachment 3. (Clean Water Act Section 303(d) [303(d)]
Water Bodies listed for Sedimentation).
f) For all construction activity, identify a sampling and analysis strategy and
sampling schedule for discharges that have been discovered through visual
monitoring to be potentially contaminated by pollutants not visually
detectable in the runoff.

roofed, etc.) before and after construction.
c) This SWPPP includes as Exhibit H a copy of the Notice of
Intent(NOI), and the Waste Discharge Identification (WDID)number.
Should the owner not receive a WDID from the State Water Resources
Control Board (State Water Board) at the time construction commences,
the owner shall include proof of mailing of the NOI, for example,certified
mail receipt, copy of check, express mail receipt,notice of receipt, etc.
F. Erosion Control
The most efficient way to address erosion control is to preserve existing vegetation where
feasible and to re-vegetate disturbed areas as soon as possible after grading or
construction. In addition to other practices,the owner shall consider: temporary seeding,
permanent seeding,mulching, soil blankets, or spray-on stabilization products.
This SWPPP includes a description of the BMPs and control practices to be implemented
during construction to minimize erosion. In developing and implementing control
practices,the owner determined the peak discharge rate and volume resulting from the
ten-year frequency, 6 hour storm event as shown in EXHIBIT I. The selection,
placement, timing, and maintenance of the erosion control BMPs was guided by the
amount of precipitation and sediment resulting from the above specified events. The
owner has considered any additional site-specific and seasonal conditions when selecting
and designing the BMPs.
See table 4-1 from the Soils report in EXHIBIT S for hydrometer analysis.
12
G. Sediment Control
This SWPPP includes a description or illustration of BMPs that will be implemented to
prevent a net increase of sediment load in storm water discharge relative to natural levels.
Sediment control BMPs are required at appropriate locations along the site perimeter and
at all operational internal inlets to the storm drain system at all times during the rainy
season. These are the most basic measures to prevent sediment from leaving the project
site. Limited exemptions can be allowed when work on active areas precludes the use of
sediment control BMPs temporarily. Under these conditions, the SWPPP describes a
plan to establish perimeter controls prior to the onset of rain. The San Jacinto Permit
requires that a sufficient stockpile of sediment control BMP materials be maintained on
the project site.
The owner considered a full range of sediment controls, and any additional site-specific
and seasonal conditions when selecting and designing the BMPs.
In conformity with the above,this SWPPP includes as EXHIBIT K a description of the
selected sediment control BMPs
This SWPPP includes as EXHIBIT L, a description of the BMPs to reduce the tracking of
sediment onto public or private roads.
H. Non Storm Water Management
This SWPPP includes as EXHIBIT M descriptions of BMPs to be implemented which
are selected to eliminate or reduce the discharge of materials other than storm water to the
storm drain system and/or receiving waters. Such BMPs shall be selected, designed, and
installed to ensure, to the extent feasible,that no materials are discharged in quantities
that will have an adverse effect on receiving waters or storm drain systems. A qualified
person has be assigned the responsibility for eliminating all discharges other than storm
water, and the name and contact number of that person is included in the project contact
list.
L Post-Construction Storm Water Management
This SWPPP includes as Exhibit N descriptions of the BMPs to reduce pollutants in
storm water discharges after all construction phases have been completed at the site.
These are consistent with all local post-construction storm water management
requirements,policies, and guidelines. The owner has considered site-specific and
seasonal conditions when designing the control practices. IE: Sweep all paved
surfaces wherever sediment can be picked up with the use of a flat-nosed
shovel.
Operation and maintenance of control practices after construction is completed are
addressed in Exhibit N, including naming the responsible parry.
In addition, Exhibit N describes how the owner will comply with the following post-
construction requirements:
1. Final Stabilization
13
a) Construction grounds and landscaped areas must be stabilized. Final
stabilization for the purposes of submitting a Notice of Termination
(NOT) is satisfied when:
i) All soil disturbing activities are completed AND:
ii) A uniform vegetative cover with a density of 70 percent has been
established OR:
iii) Equivalent stabilization measures have been employed. These
measures include the use of such BMPs as rip-rap, gabions, and/or
geotextiles.
b) Where background native vegetation covers less than 100 percent of the
surface, such as in and areas,the 70 percent coverage criteria still apply
according to the following: If the native vegetation covers 50 percent of
the ground surface, 70 percent of 50 percent (.70 X .50=.35)would require
35 percent total uniform surface coverage. Wherever possible,the use of
perennial drought-tolerant vegetative cover should be used.
c) Landscaped areas, shall be designed with efficient irrigation systems that
minimize runoff and promote surface infiltration. Drought-tolerant
landscaping is preferable.
2. In addition, Exhibit N describes how the owner has considered and, where
appropriate implemented the following recommended BMPs:
a) All on-site storm drain inlets, whether newly constructed or existing, be
stenciled with "Don't Dump--Drains to "or the equivalent depending upon
receiving water body, city or county requirements.
b) Energy dissipation devices, water quality structures, stabilized outfalls,
and other structural controls necessary to prevent channel erosion
provided.
All homeowners are to receive a copy of the Educational Pamphlet
(Exhibit T) as provided here. Also, a copy of each Receipt of Public .
Educational Material Forms is to be kept in the SWPPP.
J. Maintenance,Inspection, and Repair
1. This SWPPP includes a discussion of the plans and procedures to inspect and
maintain all BMPs as identified in the site plan or other narrative documents
throughout the entire duration of the project.
2. A qualified person has been assigned the responsibility to conduct inspections.
The name and telephone number of the BMP Inspector is listed in the project
contacts list.
3. Inspections will be performed before and after storm events and each 24 hour
period during extended storm events to identify BMP effectiveness and
14
implement repairs or design changes. Also a weekly inspection during rainy
seasons and an inspection twice monthly during non-rainy seasons.
4. Equipment,materials, and workers are available for rapid response to failures and
emergencies.
5. All corrective maintenance to BMPs shall be performed within 48 hours of the
conclusion of each storm.
b. For each inspection required above,the BMP Inspector will complete an
inspection check-list as described in Exhibit O. The inspection checklist includes:
a) Inspection date.
b) Name of individual performing inspection.
c) Weather information: best estimate of beginning of storm event, duration
of event,time elapsed since last storm and approximate amount of rainfall

16
III. MONITORING PROGRAM AND REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS
A. Required Changes
The Regional Water Quality Control Board(Regional Water Board) may require the
owner to conduct additional site inspections,to submit reports and certifications, or
perform sampling and analysis.
B. Implementation
1. The monitoring and reporting requirements identified below shall be implemented at
the time of commencement of construction activity. The owner is responsible for
implementing these requirements until construction activity is complete.
2. For ongoing construction activity involving a change in ownership of property
covered by The San Jacinto Permit,the new owner must complete a Notice of Intent
(NOI) and implement the requirements of this Section concurrent with the change of
ownership. For partial terminations,the original owner must follow instructions in
IV., Special Provisions of the San Jacinto Permit.
C. Site Inspections
1. The BMP Inspector will conduct inspections of the construction site prior to
anticipated storm events and after actual storm events to identify areas contributing to
a discharge of storm water associated with construction activity. The owner has
selected a site superintendent experienced with construction practices including
erosion and sediment control,to perform BMP inspections.
2. During extended storm events, inspections shall be required each 24 hour period.
3. Best Management Practices (BMPs), as identified in the Storm Water Pollution
Prevention Plan(SWPPP), should be evaluated for adequacy and proper
implementation and whether additional BMPs are required in accordance with the
terms of the San Jacinto Permit.
4. Regular inspections will also be performed to inspect the adequacy of control area
BMP's and general site housekeeping practices. During the rainy season these will be
performed bi-weekly and include site entry and adjacent streets, erosion control
stockpiles and storm drain inlet protection. Non-rainy season inspections shall be
performed monthly.
5. Implementation of non-storm water discharge BMPs shall be verified, and their
effectiveness evaluated.
6. One time discharges shall be inspected when such discharges occur.
A Compliance Certification & Reporting
The owner will certify annually that its construction activity is in compliance with the
requirements of the San Jacinto Permit and this SWPPP. This Certification is based upon
the site inspections required by this SWPPP and Monitoring the Reporting Plan. The
17
certification will be completed by August 1st of each year. A sample certification letter is
provided in Section VIII. See Section B, San Jacinto Permit.
E. Noncompliance Reporting
If the owners cannot certify compliance or who have had other instances of
noncompliance, shall notify the appropriate Regional Water Board within 30 days.
The notifications shall:
1. Identify the noncompliance event, including an initial assessment of any impact
caused by the event;
2. Describe the actions necessary to achieve compliance; and
3. Include a time schedule subject to the modifications by the Regional Water Board
indicating when compliance will be achieved.
F. Monitoring Records
Records of all inspections, compliance certifications, and noncompliance reporting must
be retained for a period of at least three years from the date generated. Except for
noncompliance reporting, owners are not required to submit these records.
G. Monitoring Program for Sedimentation/Siltation
Dischargers of storm water associated with construction activity that directly enters a
water body listed in Attachment 3 shall conduct a sampling and analysis program for the
pollutants (sedimentation/siltation or turbidity) causing the impairment. The discharger
shall monitor for the applicable parameter. If the water body is listed for sedimentation
or siltation, samples should be analyzed for Settleable Solids (mVl) and Total Suspended
Solids (mg/l ). Alternatively or in addition, samples may be analyzed for suspended
sediment concentration according to ASTM D3977-97. If the water body is listed for
turbidity, samples should be analyzed for turbidity (NTU). Discharges that flow through
tributaries that are not listed in Attachment 3 or that flow into Municipal Separate Storm
Sewer Systems (MS4) are not subject to these sampling and analysis requirements. The
sampling and analysis parameters and procedures must be designed to determine whether
the BMPs installed and maintained prevent discharges of sediment from contributing to
impairment in receiving waters. Samples shall be collected during the first two hours of
discharge from rain events which result in a direct discharge to any water body listed in
Attachment 3. Samples shall be collected during daylight hours (sunrise to sunset).
Dischargers need not collect more than four(4) samples per month. All samples shall be
taken in the receiving waters and shall be representative of the prevailing conditions of
the water bodies. Samples shall be collected from safely accessible locations upstream of
the construction site discharge and immediately downstream from the last point of
discharge.
18
For laboratory analysis, all sampling, sample preservation, and analyses must be conducted
according to test procedures under 40 CFR Part 136. Field samples shall be collected and
analyzed according to the specifications of the manufacturer of the sampling devices
employed. Portable meters shall be calibrated according to manufacturer's specification.
All field and/or laboratory analytical data shall be kept in the SWPPP document, which is
to remain at the construction site at all times until a Notice of Termination has been
submitted and approved.
H. Monitoring Program for Pollutants Not Visually Detectable in Storm Water
A sampling and analysis program shall be developed and conducted for pollutants which
are not visually detectable in storm water discharges, which are or should be known to
occur on the construction site, and which could cause or contribute to an exceedance of
water quality objectives in the receiving water. Pollutants that should be considered for
inclusion in this sampling and analysis program are those identified in Sections A.5.b.
and A.5.c.
Construction materials and compounds that are not stored in water-tight containers under a
water-tight roof or inside a building are examples of materials for which the discharger may
have to implement sampling and analysis procedures. The goal of the sampling and
analysis is to determine whether the BMPs employed and maintained on site are effective in
preventing the potential pollutants from coming in contact with storm water and causing or
contributing to an exceedance of water quality objectives in the receiving waters.
Examples of construction sites that may require sampling and analysis include: sites that
are known to have contaminants spilled or spread on the ground; sites where construction
practices include the application of soil amendments, such as gypsum, which can increase
the pH of the runoff, or sites having uncovered stockpiles of material exposed to storm
water. Visual observations before, during, and after storm events may trigger the
requirement to collect samples. Any breach, malfunction, leakage, or spill observed which
could result in the discharge of pollutants to surface waters that would not be visually
detectable in storm water shall trigger the collection of a sample of discharge. Samples
shall be collected at all discharge locations which drain the areas identified by the visual
observations and which can be safely accessed. For sites where sampling and analysis is
required,personnel trained in water quality sampling procedures shall collect storm water
samples. A sufficiently large sample of storm water that has not come in contact with the
disturbed soil or the materials stored or used on-site (uncontaminated sample) shall be
collected for comparison with the discharge sample. Samples shall be collected during the
first two hours of discharge from rain events that occur during daylight hours and which
generate runoff.
The uncontaminated sample shall be compared to the samples of discharge using field
analysis or through laboratory analysis. Analyses may include, but are not limited to,
indicator parameters such as: pH, specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, conductivity,
salinity, and TDS.
19
For laboratory analysis, all sampling, sample preservation, and analyses must be conducted
according to test procedures under 40 CFR Part 136. Field discharge samples shall be
collected and analyzed according to the specifications of the manufacturer of the sampling
devices employed. Portable meters shall be calibrated according to manufacturer's
specification. All field and/or analytical data shall be kept in the S WPPP document, which
is to remain at the construction site at all times until a Notice of Termination has been
submitted and approved.
1. Notice of Termination
Submission of this notice constitutes that the owner of the project identified on the form is
no longer authorized to discharge storm water associated with new development.

cause. The filing of a request by the owner for a Permit modification,revocation and
re-issuance, or termination, or a notification of planned changes or anticipated
noncompliance does not stay any Permit condition.
2. If any toxic effluent standard or prohibition(including any schedule of compliance
specified in such effluent standard or prohibition) is promulgated under Section
307(a)of the CWA for a toxic pollutant which is present in the discharge and that
standard or prohibition is more stringent than any limitation on the pollutant in The
San Jacinto Permit, The San Jacinto Permit shall be modified or revoked and reissued
to conform to the toxic effluent standard or prohibition; and the owners so notified.
C. Need to Halt or Reduce Activity Not a Defense

Vacuum sawcut slurry. Dispose of concrete and asphalt spoils offsite.
M. Non Storm Water BMPs
Discharges of non-storm water may be necessary for the completion of the
project. Such discharges include, but are not limited to: irrigation of vegetative
erosion control measures,pipe flushing and testing, building washing. The San
Jacinto Permit authorizes such discharges as Iong as they(a) do not cause or
contribute to violation of any water quality standard, (b)do not violate any other
provision of this permit, (c) do not require a non-storm water permit as issued by
some Regional Water Boards, and(d) do not require a prohibition exemption from
the Regional Water Board for prohibitions contained in applicable water quality
control plans.
Non-storm water discharges will include irrigation of vegetative erosion
control measures,pipe flushing, building and washing.
N. Post Construction BMPs
Structural BMPs include paving, curb and gutter, and storm drain to control runoff and
reduce erosion. Maintenance of BMPs includes storm drain cleaning,resident education,
street sweeping, trash collection, asphalt seal coating and repairs. The public drainage
system and public streets will be maintained by County of Riverside through normal
funding. A.sample of the Homeowner's Educational Pamphlet and the Receipt of Public
Educational Materials form is included in this section.
Off site Water Quality and Sedimentation Basins are maintained by Pardee Homes
(Tracts 30492 & 30754, PA 12, 13 &14) These basins are completed and in use at
this time. Operation and design was prepared by BV Engineering of Corona.
Final stabilization of the site will include landscaping, ground cover and irrigation
systems. Maintenance of the landscaping, once completed, will be funded through an
H.O.A. Maintenance of paved streets will be funded by normal Riverside County taxes.
42
O. Maintenance and Inspection Procedures and Forms
BMP Maintenance & Inspection
The designated inspector, shall be responsible for monitoring the implementation and
maintenance of the SWPPP, including the erosion control facilities. Project specific
checklists and a site plan for this project have been created (see Appendix III and Exhibit
"B")to assist the inspector in fulfilling this responsibility. Only one set of forms has
been supplied, so copies must be made for each inspection. Multiple copies of the site
plan should be used to allow for construction phasing. All control area locations shall be
noted on the site plan with approximate dimensions and dates. The inspector shall also
note the current construction activities throughout the site. Each inspection form must
include the date, storm information(beginning of storm, duration, approximate amount of
rainfall, and time since last storm), notation of inadequate BMPs (storm water and non-
storm water) or damage, and corrective actions required. The report shall also note any
required changes to the SWPPP. All inspection reports must include the inspectors name,
title and signature.
Inspections must be performed on a regular basis and before and after a storm event. For
storm events, which exceed a 24 hour duration, inspections must be performed during
each 24 hour period. During the rainy season(October 1 through May 1), regular
inspections will be performed on a weekly basis. The goals of these inspections are (1)
to identify areas contributing to the a storm water discharge; (2)evaluate whether
measures to reduce pollutant loadings identified in the SWPPP are adequate and properly
installed and functioning in accordance with terms of this San Jacinto Permit; and(3)
whether additional control practices or correctives maintenance activities are required.
All equipment, materials and workers must be available for rapid response to failures and
emergencies. All corrective maintenance of BMPs shall be performed as soon as possible
after the conclusion of each storm depending upon worker safety.
Pre-storm inspections shall be performed whenever the 5-day rainfall probability
exceeds 40%. Weather and storm predictions or weather information can be obtained by
calling the Western Regional Climate Center 702-677-3106 or via the Internet at
www.wrcc.dri.edu/precip.html. Other rainfall information is available at
www.cdec.water.ca.gov. Implementation of non-storm water discharge BMPs shall be
verified and their effectiveness evaluated. Non-storm water BMPs must be implemented
year round. One time discharges of non-storm water shall be inspected when such
discharges occur. BMPs shall be evaluated for adequacy and proper implementation and
whether additional BMPs are required in accordance with the terms of the San Jacinto
Permit (see Appendix 1). Any deficiencies noted shall be brought to the attention of the
owner for corrective action.
_Rapid Response
In order to minimize the chance for discharge violations,the erosion and sediment control
BMPs shall be implemented as soon as practical. When the 5 day probability of rainfall
43
exceeds 40%,the BMP inspector shall perform a pre-storm inspection to determine areas
that need to be stabilized before a storm event. The inspector shall provide the
superintendent with the results of the walk thru including deficient BMPs and areas that
need stabilization.
125% of the uninstalled erosion& sediment control devices shall be stockpiled at the site
to ensure rapid deployment. Gravel bags shall be stockpiled next to the curb inlets. The
site superintendent shall coordinate with the erosion control contractor regarding the
potential areas & BMPs that will need to be installed or maintained prior to a rainfall.
The superintendent shall also notify affected trades with regards to cleanup and securing
of materials.
The superintendent shall review the need for street sweeping and trash cleanup.
P. Training Records
All contractors, subcontractors and their personnel shall be advised of the control
measures, practices and prohibitions listed in this plan and the grading and erosion
control ordinances of the County of Riverside. A signature list for all subcontractors has
been prepared to acknowledge the notice and/or training.
On-site training and information briefings will be conducted for all field staff of
contractors, subcontractors and onsite personnel. Training will be timed depending upon
project schedule and trades onsite. Three principal training sessions shall be conducted;
the first will focus on erosion and sediment control. The second session is regarding
general site housekeeping requirements. The third will focus on BMPs for specific
activities associated with the building construction.
Topics may include but not be limited to the following:
General Construction Storm Water Permit Requirements
Pollutant Source Identification(SWPPP)
Erosion& Sediment Control
Best Management Practices(Housekeeping and Material Use)
Hazardous Material Storage, Use & Disposal (BMP CA40)
Spill Prevention, Control & Cleanup (BMP CA12)
Material Delivery& Storage
Safety
Pre-storm response
Interim training and tailgate conferences will be conducted on an as-needed basis or
focused to specific trades on a weekly basis. The agenda shall include any areas or
practices that were identified as deficient by the BMP inspector

VI. Storm Water Sampling
This project does not discharge to a 303(d) listed body of water.
The sampling locations are indicated throughout the site to assist in the detection of
potential pollutants. (see Exhibit"B")
Any breach,malfunction, leakage, or spill observed which could result in the discharge
of pollutants to surface waters that would not be visually detectable in storm water shall
trigger the collection of a sample of discharge. In addition, discharge shall be tested
initially for contaminants,which may be present due to historic uses of the site or
upstream development. Initial sampling shall test for the presence of urban
contaminants,pesticide, herbicides and fertilizer levels. See Section III.D for a list of
potential contaminants, which will be stored on-site.
SECTION A: STORM WATER POLL UTION PREVENTION PLAN(SWPPP)
1. Objectives
d. Identify a sampling and analysis strategy and sampling schedule for
discharges from construction activity which discharge directly into water
bodies listed on Attachment 3. (Clean Water Act Section 303(d) [303(d)]
Water Bodies listed for Sedimentation).
e. For all construction activity, identify a sampling and analysis strategy
and sampling schedule for discharges that have been discovered through
visual monitoring.
2. Implementation Schedule
d. Existing permittees shall revise their SWPPP in accordance with the
sampling and analysis modifications prior to August 1, 2001. For
ongoing construction activity involving a change of ownership the new
owner shall review the existing SWPPP and amend the sampling and
analysis strategy, if required, within 45 days. For construction activity
commencing after the date of adoption, the SWPPP shall be developed in
accordance with the modification language adopted.
51
5. Source Identification
b. Pollutant Source and BMP Identification
(7) Show the locations of direct discharge from the construction site into a
Section 303(d) list water body. Show the designated sampling locations
in the receiving waters, which represent the prevailing conditions of the
water bodies upstream of the construction site discharge and immediately
downstream from the last point of discharge.
(8) Show the locations designated for sampling the discharge from areas
identified in Section A. 5. b. (2), (3), and (4) and Section A. 5. c. (1) and
(2). Samples shall be taken should visual monitoring indicate that
there has been a breach,malfunction,leakage, or spill from a BMP
which could result in the discharge in storm water of pollutants that
would not be visually detectable, or if storm water comes into contact
with soil amendments or other exposed materials or contamination
and is allowed to be discharged. Describe the sampling procedure,
location, and rationale for obtaining the uncontaminated sample of storm
water.
SECTION B. MONITORING PROGRAM AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
7. Monitoring Program for Sedimentation/Siltation
Dischargers of storm water associated with construction activity that directly
enters a water body listed in Attachment 3 shall conduct a sampling and analysis
program for the pollutants (sedimentation/siltation or turbidity) causing the
impairment. The discharger shall monitor for the applicable parameter. If the
water body is listed for sedimentation or siltation, samples should be analyzed
for Settleable Solids(nil/1) and Total Suspended Solids (mg/1 ). Alternatively or
in addition, samples may be analyzed for suspended sediment concentration
according to ASTM D3977-97. If the water body is listed for turbidity, samples
should be analyzed for turbidity(NTU). Discharges that flow through tributaries
that are not listed in Attachment 3 or that flow into Municipal Separate Storm
Sewer Systems (MS4)are not subject to these sampling and analysis
requirements. The sampling and analysis parameters and procedures must be
designed to determine whether the BMPs installed and maintained prevent
discharges of sediment from contributing to impairment in receiving waters.
Samples shall be collected during the first two hours of discharge from rain
events which result in a direct discharge to any water body listed in Attachment
52
3. Samples shall be collected during daylight hours (sunrise to sunset).
Dischargers need not collect more than four(4) samples per month. All samples
shall be taken in the receiving waters and shall be representative of the prevailing
conditions of the water bodies. Samples shall be collected from safely accessible
locations upstream of the construction site discharge and immediately
downstream from the last point of discharge.
For laboratory analysis, all sampling, sample preservation, and analyses must be
conducted according to test procedures under 40 CFR Part 136. Field samples
shall be collected and analyzed according to the specifications of the
manufacturer of the sampling devices employed. Portable meters shall be
calibrated according to manufacturer's specification. All field and/or laboratory
analytical data shall be kept in the SWPPP document, which is to remain at the
construction site at all times until a Notice of Termination has been submitted
and approved.
