1.0 Introduction
This Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) has been prepared for the MeadowVue
single-family development project located in Renton, Washington. MeadowVue proposes to
provide 14 new homes, half-street frontage improvements to 154th Ave SE, concrete curb, gutter,
and sidewalk along 156th Ave SE, and water and sewer utilities, and storm drainage mitigation
facilities. The project is located at 13833 156th Ave SE. within Section 14, Township 23N, Range
5E, W.M. King County, Washington. This site is approximately 4.54 acres.
Construction activities will include approximately 1.81 acres of new impervious area in the form
of asphalt driveways and drive aisles, new sidewalks, and building roofs. The purpose of this
SWPPP is to describe the proposed construction activities and all temporary and permanent
erosion and sediment control (TESC) measures, pollution prevention measures,
inspection/monitoring activities, and record keeping that will be implemented during the
proposed construction project. The objectives of the SWPPP are to:
1. Implement Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent erosion and
sedimentation, and to identify, reduce, eliminate or prevent stormwater
contamination and water pollution from construction activity.
2. Prevent violations of surface water quality, ground water quality, or
sediment management standards.
3. Prevent, during the construction phase, adverse water quality impacts
including impacts on beneficial uses of the receiving water by controlling
peak flow rates and volumes of stormwater runoff at the Permittee’s
outfalls and downstream of the outfalls.
This SWPPP was prepared using the Ecology SWPPP Template downloaded from the Ecology
website and modifying to be specific for this project. This SWPPP was prepared based on the
requirements set forth in the Construction Stormwater General Permit and Stormwater
Management Manual for Western Washington (SWMMWW 2012). The report is divided into
seven main sections with several appendices that include stormwater related reference materials.
The topics presented in the each of the main sections are:
▪ Section 1 – INTRODUCTION. This section provides a summary description of the project, and the organization of the SWPPP document.
▪ Section 2 – SITE DESCRIPTION. This section provides a detailed description of the
existing site conditions, proposed construction activities, and calculated stormwater
flow rates for existing conditions and post–construction conditions.
▪ Section 3 – CONSTRUCTION BMPs. This section provides a detailed description of
the BMPs to be implemented based on the 12 required elements of the SWPPP
(SWMMWW 2005).

CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 5
▪ Section 4 – CONSTRUCTION PHASING AND BMP IMPLEMENTATION. This
section provides a description of the timing of the BMP implementation in relation to
the project schedule.
▪ Section 5 – POLLUTION PREVENTION TEAM. This section identifies the
appropriate contact names (emergency and non-emergency), monitoring personnel,
and the onsite temporary erosion and sedimentation control inspector
▪ Section 6 – INSPECTION AND MONITORING. This section provides a description
of the inspection and monitoring requirements such as the parameters of concern to
be monitored, sample locations, sample frequencies, and sampling methods for all
stormwater discharge locations from the site.
▪ Section 7 – RECORDKEEPING. This section describes the requirements for
documentation of the BMP implementation, site inspections, monitoring results, and
changes to the implementation of certain BMPs due to site factors experienced during
construction.

2.0 Site/Project Description
2.1 Existing Conditions
The project area consists of one parcel totaling 4.54 acres (SC tax parcel #: 1463400060). The
project is located at 13833 156th Ave SE., Renton, WA 98056 within Section 14, Township 23N,
Range 5E, W.M.
The site is currently occupied by one single-family residence. Access to the existing home is
provided by a gravel driveway that connects to 156th Ave SE. A number of trees of varying type,
age, and health conditions exist on the site along with various brushes and grass cover.
The soils of the area are characterized generally by the Natural Resource Conservation Services
(NRCS) as Alderwood gravelly sandy loam (AgC). Refer to Appendix A of the TIR for a site
specific geotechnical report along with the NRCS data. Refer to Figure 3 in the TIR Appendix
for a map of the existing site conditions and existing drainage basins.

CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 7
2.2 Proposed Construction Activities
The proposed development will create a total of 14 single-family homes. In addition, the project
will include half-street frontage improvements to 154th Ave SE, including the pavement
widening, curb and gutter, sidewalk and landscaping., and concrete curb, gutter, and sidewalk
along 156th Ave. The overall project will create and/or replace a total of approximately 1.90
acres of impervious surfaces.
The proposed construction activities include site preparation, TESC installation, pavement and
sidewalk construction, utility installation, stormwater conveyance system design, and water
quality vault excavation. The schedule and phasing of BMPs during construction is provided in
Section 4.0.
A series of on-site catch basin inlets and underground pipes will collect and convey surface
water runoff westerly within the proposed road right-of-way for the majority of the developed
site to the combined detention/water quality pond for flow control. Release rates will be
controlled by a three orifice control riser, and discharged to an existing ditch located southwest
of the site, on the east side of 154th Ave SE right-of-way.
A very limited portion of the widened pavements section along 154th Ave SE and 156th Ave SE
will be bypassed due to existing topography and grade of the roads. However, to offset this
detained and untreated area, the site will be treating runoff from a portion of previously untreated
pavement along 156th Ave SE.
The developed site is required to provide Basic Water Quality treatment in addition to Level 1
(i.e., basic) flow control per current City of Renton surface water standards. This treatment level
is to be achieved by means of a combined detention/water quality pond as shown on Figure 4 and
5 and as described in Section 4 of the TIR – Flow Control and Water Quality Facility Analysis
and Design.
Stormwater runoff volumes were calculated using the Western Washington Hydrology Model
2012 (WWHM). Water quality treatment was sized using the 2-year treatment volume.
The following summarizes details regarding the site conditions:
▪ Total site area: 4.54 acres
▪ Percent impervious area before construction: 2.0 %
▪ Percent impervious area after construction: 41.9 %
▪ Disturbed area during construction: 5.11 acres
▪ Disturbed area that is characterized as impervious
(i.e., access roads, staging, parking): 2.24 acres

3.0 Construction Stormwater BMPs
3.1 The 12 BMP Elements
3.1.1 Element #1 – Mark Clearing Limits
To protect adjacent properties and to reduce the area of soil exposed to construction, the limits of
construction will be clearly marked before land-disturbing activities begin. Trees that are to be
preserved, as well as all sensitive areas and their buffers, shall be clearly delineated, both in the
field and on the plans. In general, natural vegetation and native topsoil shall be retained in an
undisturbed state to the maximum extent possible. The BMPs relevant to marking the clearing
limits that will be applied for this project include:
• Preserving Natural Vegetation Purpose (BMP C101)
• Construction Fence (BMP C103)
Tree protection will be provided for all trees to remain, including all trees adjacent to the
work and outside the construction limits as noted on the drawings. The upstream
boundaries of the site will be lined with construction fencing.
3.1.2 Element #2 – Establish Construction Access
Construction access shall be stabilized to minimize the tracking of sediment onto public roads;
street sweeping shall be employed to prevent sediment from entering state waters. The specified
BMPs related to establishing construction access that will be used on the project include:
• Stabilized Construction Entrance (BMP C105)
Construction access shall be established to prevent tracking any sediment onto City or
State roads or onto the adjacent property. One construction entrance will be provided.
3.1.3 Element #3 – Control Flow Rates
In order to protect the properties and waterways downstream of the project site, stormwater
discharges from the site will be controlled during construction. Flow rates during construction
are proposed to be controlled using the temporary interceptor ditches, rock check dams, and a
temporary sediment pond. In general, discharge rates of stormwater from the site will be
controlled where increases in impervious area or soil compaction during construction could lead
to downstream erosion, or where necessary to meet local agency stormwater discharge
requirements. BMPs related to establishing construction access that will be used on the project
include:
• Temporary Interceptor Ditches (BMP C200)
• Rock Check Dams (BMP C207)
• Temporary Sediment Trap (BMP C240)
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 10
3.1.4 Element #4 – Install Sediment Controls
All stormwater runoff from disturbed areas shall pass through an appropriate sediment removal
BMP before leaving the construction site or prior to being discharged to an infiltration facility.
The specific BMPs to be used for controlling sediment on this project include:
• Outlet Protection (BMP C209)
• Storm Drain Inlet Protection (BMP C220)
• Silt Fence (BMP C233)
Outlet protection, storm drain inlet protection, and silt fence will be placed as shown on the plans
or as directed by the City inspector.
In addition, sediment will be removed from paved areas in construction work areas manually or
using mechanical sweepers, as needed, to minimize tracking of sediments on vehicle tires away
from the site and to minimize wash off of sediments from adjacent streets in runoff.
Whenever possible, sediment laden water shall be discharged into onsite, relatively level,
vegetated areas (BMP C240 paragraph 5, page 4-102). In some cases, sediment discharge in
concentrated runoff can be controlled using permanent stormwater BMPs (e.g., infiltration
swales, ponds, trenches). Sediment loads can limit the effectiveness of some permanent
stormwater BMPs, such as those used for infiltration or biofiltration; however, those BMPs
designed to remove solids by settling (wet vaults or detention tanks) can be used during the
construction phase.
3.1.5 Element #5 – Stabilize Soils
Exposed and unworked soils shall be stabilized with the application of effective BMPs to prevent
erosion throughout the life of the project. The specific BMPs for soil stabilization that shall be
used on this project include:
• Topsoiling (BMP C125)
In general, cut and fill slopes will be stabilized as soon as possible and soil stockpiles will be
temporarily covered with plastic sheeting. All stockpiled soils shall be stabilized from erosion,
protected with sediment trapping measures, and where possible, be located away from storm
drain inlets, waterways, and drainage channels.
3.1.6 Element #6 – Protect Slopes
All cut and fill slopes will be designed, constructed, and protected in a manner than minimizes
erosion. The following specific BMPs will be used to protect slopes for this project:
• Temporary and Permanent Seeding (BMP C120)
• Pipe Slope Drain (BMP C204)
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 11
Minimal construction is proposed for wet weather season and slope protection can be established
with final landscaping.
3.1.7 Element #7 – Protect Drain Inlets
All storm drain inlets and culverts made operable during construction shall be protected to
prevent unfiltered or untreated water from entering the drainage conveyance system. Storm
Drain Inlet Protection (SWMMWW BMP C220) will be implemented for all drainage inlets and
culverts that could potentially be impacted by sediment-laden runoff on and near the project site.
The following inlet protection measures will be applied on this project:
Drop Inlet Protection:
• Catch Basin Filters
Curb Inlet Protection:
• Silt Fence wrapped over inlet
• Catch Basin Filters
3.1.8 Element #8 – Stabilize Channels and Outlets
Where site runoff is to be conveyed in channels, or discharged to a stream or some other natural
drainage point, efforts will be taken to prevent downstream erosion. The specific BMPs for
channel and outlet stabilization that shall be used on this project include:
• Interceptor Dike and Swale (BMP C200)
• Check Dams (BMP C207)
• Outlet Protection (BMP C209)
• Storm Drain Inlet Protection (BMP C220)
• Gravel Filter Berm (BMP C232)
• Sediment Trap (BMP C240)
All temporary on-site conveyance channels shall be designed, constructed, and stabilized to
prevent erosion from the expected peak 10 minute velocity of flow from a Type 1A, 10-year, 24-
hour recurrence interval storm for the developed condition. Alternatively, the 10-year, 1-hour
peak flow rate indicated by an approved continuous runoff simulation model, increased by a
factor of 1.6, shall be used. Stabilization, including armoring material, adequate to prevent
erosion of outlets, adjacent stream banks, slopes, and downstream reaches shall be provided at
the outlets of all conveyance systems. Refer to the Temporary and Erosion Sediment Control
Plans for placement and location of these facilities.
3.1.9 Element #9 – Control Pollutants
All pollutants, including waste materials and demolition debris, that occur onsite shall be
handled and disposed of in a manner that does not cause contamination of stormwater. If
required, BMPs to be implemented to control specific sources of pollutants are discussed below:
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 12
Vehicles, construction equipment, and/or petroleum product storage/dispensing:
• All vehicles, equipment, and petroleum product storage/dispensing areas will be
inspected regularly to detect any leaks or spills, and to identify maintenance needs to
prevent leaks or spills.
• On-site fueling tanks and petroleum product storage containers shall include
secondary containment.
• Spill prevention measures, such as drip pans, will be used when conducting
maintenance and repair of vehicles or equipment.
• Contaminated surfaces shall be cleaned immediately following any discharge or spill
incident.
Chemical storage:
• Any chemicals stored in the construction areas will conform to the appropriate source
control BMPs listed in Volume IV of the Ecology stormwater manual. In Western
WA, all chemicals shall have cover, containment, and protection provided on site, per
BMP C153 for Material Delivery, Storage and Containment in SWMMWW 2005
• Application of agricultural chemicals, including fertilizers and pesticides, shall be
conducted in a manner and at application rates that will not result in loss of chemical
to stormwater runoff. Manufacturers’ recommendations for application procedures
and rates shall be followed.
Demolition:
• Dust released from demolished sidewalks, buildings, or structures will be controlled
using Dust Control measures (BMP C140).
• Storm drain inlets vulnerable to stormwater discharge carrying dust, soil, or debris
will be protected using Storm Drain Inlet Protection (BMP C220 as described above
for Element 7).
• Process water and slurry resulting from sawcutting and surfacing operations will be
prevented from entering the waters of the State by implementing Sawcutting and
Surfacing Pollution Prevention measures (BMP C152).
Concrete and grout:
• Process water and slurry resulting from concrete work will be prevented from
entering downstream surface waters by implementing Concrete Handling measures
(BMP C151).
Sanitary wastewater:
• Portable sanitation facilities will be firmly secured, regularly maintained, and emptied
when necessary.
Solid Waste:
• Solid waste will be stored in secure, clearly marked containers.
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 13
Other:
• Other BMPs will be administered as necessary to address any additional pollutant
sources on site.
As per the Federal regulations of the Clean Water Act (CWA) and according to Final Rule 40
CFR Part 112, as stated in the National Register, a Spill Prevention, Control, and
Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan is required for construction activities. The Contractor shall
prepare an SPCC Plan according to the Washington State Department of Transportation
(WSDOT) Requirements (see the WSDOT Standard Specifications for Road, Bridge, and
Municipal Construction 2004) to address an approach to prevent, respond to, and report spills or
releases to the environment that could result from construction activities. This Plan must:
• Be well thought out in accordance with good engineering;
• Achieve three objectives - prevent spills, contain a spill that occurs, and clean up the
spill;
• Identify the name, location, owner, and type of facility;
• Include the date of initial operation and oil spill history;
• Name the designated person responsible;
• Show evidence of approval and certification by the person in authority; and
• Contain a facility analysis.
3.1.10 Element #10 – Control Dewatering
Any potential dewatering water from open cut excavation, tunneling, foundation work, trench, or
underground vaults shall be discharged into a controlled conveyance system prior to discharge to
a sediment trap or sediment pond. Channels will be stabilized, per Element #8. Clean, non-
turbid dewatering water will not be routed through stormwater sediment ponds, and will be
discharged directly to downstream systems in a manner that does not cause erosion, flooding, or
a violation of State water quality standards in receiving waters. Highly turbid dewatering water
from soils known or suspected to be contaminated, or from use of construction equipment, will
require additional monitoring and treatment as required for the specific pollutants based on the
receiving waters into which the discharge is occurring. Such monitoring is the responsibility of
the contractor.
The dewatering of soils known to be free of contamination will trigger BMPs to trap sediment
and reduce turbidity. At a minimum, geotextile fabric socks/bags/cells will be used to filter this
material. Other BMPs to be used for sediment trapping and turbidity reduction include the
following:
• Concrete Handling (BMP C151)
Concrete shall be managed in accordance with City and SWDOT standards. No washing out of
concrete trucks shall be permitted on the project site.
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 14
3.1.11 Element #11 – Maintain BMPs
All temporary and permanent erosion and sediment control BMPs shall be maintained and
repaired as needed to assure continued performance of their intended function. Maintenance and
repair shall be conducted in accordance with each particular BMP’s specifications. Visual
monitoring of the BMPs will be conducted at least once every calendar week and within 24 hours
of any rainfall event that causes a discharge from the site. If the site becomes inactive, and is
temporarily stabilized, the inspection frequency will be reduced to once every month.
All temporary erosion and sediment control BMPs shall be removed within 30 days after the
final site stabilization is achieved or after the temporary BMPs are no longer needed. Trapped
sediment shall be removed or stabilized on site. Disturbed soil resulting from removal of BMPs
or vegetation shall be permanently stabilized.
3.1.12 Element #12 – Manage the Project
Erosion and sediment control BMPs for this project have been designed based on the following
principles:
• Design the project to fit the existing topography, soils, and drainage patterns.
• Emphasize erosion control rather than sediment control.
• Minimize the extent and duration of the area exposed.
• Keep runoff velocities low.
• Retain sediment on site.
• Thoroughly monitor site and maintain all ESC measures.
• Schedule major earthwork during the dry season.
In addition, project management will incorporate the key components listed below:
Phasing of Construction:
• The construction project is being phased to the extent practicable in order to prevent
excessive soil erosion, and, to the maximum extent possible, the transport of sediment
from the site during construction.
• Revegetation of exposed areas and maintenance of that vegetation shall be an integral
part of the clearing activities during each phase of construction, per the Scheduling
BMP (C162).
Seasonal Work Limitations
• From October 1 through April 30, clearing, grading, and other soil disturbing
activities shall only be permitted if shown to the satisfaction of the local permitting
authority that silt-laden runoff will be prevented from leaving the site through a
combination of the following:
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 15
▪ Site conditions including existing vegetative coverage, slope, soil type, and
proximity to receiving waters; and
▪ Limitations on activities and the extent of disturbed areas; and
▪ Proposed erosion and sediment control measures.
• Based on the information provided and/or local weather conditions, the local
permitting authority may expand or restrict the seasonal limitation on site disturbance.
• The following activities are exempt from the seasonal clearing and grading
limitations:
▪ Routine maintenance and necessary repair of erosion and sediment control BMPs;
▪ Routine maintenance of public facilities or existing utility structures that do not
expose the soil or result in the removal of the vegetative cover to soil; and
▪ Activities where there is 100 percent infiltration of surface water runoff within the
site in approved and installed erosion and sediment control facilities.
Coordination with Utilities and Other Jurisdictions:
• Care has been taken to coordinate with utilities, other construction projects, and the
local jurisdiction in preparing this SWPPP and scheduling the construction work.
Inspection and Monitoring:
• All BMPs shall be inspected, maintained, and repaired as needed to assure continued
performance of their intended function. Site inspections shall be conducted by a
person who is knowledgeable in the principles and practices of erosion and sediment
control. This person has the necessary skills to:
▪ Assess the site conditions and construction activities that could impact the quality
of stormwater, and
▪ Assess the effectiveness of erosion and sediment control measures used to control
the quality of stormwater discharges.
• A Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Lead shall be on-site or on-call at all times
per BMP (160).
• Whenever inspection and/or monitoring reveals that the BMPs identified in this
SWPPP are inadequate, due to the actual discharge of or potential to discharge a
significant amount of any pollutant, appropriate BMPs or design changes shall be
implemented as soon as possible.
Maintaining an Updated Construction SWPPP:
• This SWPPP shall be retained on-site or within reasonable access to the site.
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 16
• The SWPPP shall be modified whenever there is a change in the design, construction,
operation, or maintenance at the construction site that has, or could have, a significant
effect on the discharge of pollutants to waters of the state.
• The SWPPP shall be modified if, during inspections or investigations conducted by
the owner/operator, or the applicable local or state regulatory authority, it is
determined that the SWPPP is ineffective in eliminating or significantly minimizing
pollutants in stormwater discharges from the site. The SWPPP shall be modified as
necessary to include additional or modified BMPs designed to correct problems
identified. Revisions to the SWPPP shall be completed within seven (7) days
following the inspection.
3.2 Site Specific BMPs
Site Specific BMPs are shown on the Temporary Erosion and Sediment Control Plan and details
in Appendix A. The Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Lead will promptly implement one
or more alternate BMP’s after the first sign that existing BMPs are ineffective or failing.

4.0 Construction Phasing and BMP Implementation
The BMP implementation schedule will be driven by the construction schedule. The following
provides a sequential list of the proposed construction schedule milestones and the corresponding
BMP implementation schedule. The list contains key milestones for construction.
The BMP implementation schedule listed below is keyed to proposed phases of the construction
project, and reflects differences in BMP installations and inspections that relate to wet season
construction. The dry season is considered to be from May 1 to September 30 and the wet
season is considered to be from October 1 to April 30. Most earthwork construction is

6.0 Site Inspections and Monitoring
Monitoring includes visual inspection, monitoring for water quality parameters of concern and
documentation of the inspection and monitoring findings in a site log book. A site log book will
be maintained for all on-site construction activities and will include:
▪ A record of the implementation of the SWPPP and other permit requirements;
▪ Site inspections; and,
▪ Stormwater quality monitoring.
For convenience, the inspection form and water quality monitoring forms included in this
SWPPP include the required information for the site log book. This SWPPP may function as the
site log book if desired, or the forms may be separated and included in a separate site log book.
However, if separated, the site log book but must be maintained on-site or within reasonable
access to the site and be made available upon request to Ecology or the local jurisdiction. 6.1 Site Inspection
All BMPs will be inspected, maintained, and repaired as needed to assure continued performance
of their intended function. The inspector will be a Certified Erosion and Sediment Control Lead
(CESCL) per BMP C160. The name and contact information for the CESCL is provided in
Section 5 of this SWPPP.
Site inspection will occur in all areas disturbed by construction activities and at all stormwater
discharge points. Stormwater will be examined for the presence of suspended sediment,
turbidity, discoloration, and oily sheen. The site inspector will evaluate and document the
effectiveness of the installed BMPs and determine if it is necessary to repair or replace any of the
BMPs to improve the quality of stormwater discharges. All maintenance and repairs will be
documented in the site log book or forms provided in this document. All new BMPs or design
changes will be documented in the SWPPP as soon as possible.
6.1.1 Site Inspection Frequency
Site inspections will be conducted at least once a week and within 24 hours following any
rainfall event which causes a discharge of stormwater from the site by a Certified Erosion and
Sediment Control Lead (CESCL). For sites with temporary stabilization measures, the site
inspection frequency can be reduced to once every month.
6.1.2 Site Inspection Documentation
The site inspector will record each site inspection using the site log inspection forms provided in
Appendix C. The site inspection log forms may be separated from this SWPPP document, but
will be maintained on-site or within reasonable access to the site and be made available upon
request to Ecology or the local jurisdiction.

CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 20
6.2 Stormwater Quality Monitoring
6.2.1 Turbidity Sampling
Monitoring requirements for the proposed project will include turbidity sampling to monitor site
discharges for water quality in compliance with the 2005 Construction Stormwater General
Permit (Appendix C). Sampling will be done with a turbidity meter or transparency tube and
conducted at all site discharge points at least once per calendar week.
Turbidity or transparency monitoring will follow the analytical methodologies described in
Section S4 of the 2005 Construction Stormwater General Permit (Appendix C). The key
benchmark values that require action include 25 NTU (equivalent to 32 cm transparency) and
250 NTU (equivalent to 6 cm transparency) for turbidity. If the 25 NTU benchmark for turbidity
is exceeded, the following steps will be conducted:
1. Ensure all BMPs specified in this SWPPP are installed and functioning as intended.
2. Assess whether additional BMPs should be implemented and make revisions to the
SWPPP as necessary.
3. Sample the discharge location daily until the analysis results are less than 25 NTU
(turbidity) or greater than 32 cm (transparency).
If the turbidity is greater than 25 NTU (or transparency is less than 32 cm) but less than 250
NTU (transparency greater than 6 cm) for more than 3 days, additional treatment BMPs will be
implemented within 24 hours of the third consecutive sample that exceeded the benchmark
value. Additional treatment BMPs will include, but are not limited to, off-site treatment,
infiltration, filtration and chemical treatment.
If the 250 NTU benchmark for turbidity (or less than 6 cm transparency) is exceeded at any time,
the following steps will be conducted:
1. Notify Ecology by phone within 24 hours of analysis.
2. Continue daily sampling until the turbidity is less than 25 NTU.
3. Initiate additional treatment BMPs such as off-site treatment, infiltration, filtration
and chemical treatment within 24 hours of the first 250 NTU exceedance.
4. Implement additional treatment BMPs as soon as possible, but within 7 days of the
first 250 NTU exceedance.
5. Describe inspection results and remedial actions that are taken in the site log book
and in monthly discharge monitoring reports.
6.2.2 pH Sampling
Stormwater runoff will be monitored for pH starting on the first day of any activity that includes
more than 40 cubic yards of poured or recycled concrete, or after the application of any
“Engineered Soils” such as, cement treated base, cement kiln dust, fly ash, etc. This does not
MeadowVue Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
CPH Project No. 0035-15-012 December 20, 2017
CP|H CONSULTANTS Page 21
include fertilizers. For concrete work, pH monitoring will start the first day concrete is poured
and continue until 3 weeks after the last pour. For engineered soils, the pH monitoring period
begins when engineered soils are first exposed to precipitation and continue until the area is fully
stabilized.
Stormwater samples will be collected daily from all points of discharge from the site and
measured for pH using a calibrated pH meter, pH test kit, or wide range pH indicator paper. If
the measured pH is 8.5 or greater, the following steps will be conducted:
1. Prevent the high pH water from entering storm drains or surface water.
2. Adjust or neutralize the high pH water if necessary using appropriate technology such
as CO2 sparging (liquid or dry ice).
3. Contact Ecology if chemical treatment other than CO2 sparging is planned.
