PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The current Western Washington Phase II Municipal Stormwater Permit (Permit)
which became effective in August 2019 requires Renton to implement a new Stormwater Pollution Source Control (SPSC)
program for existing developments. Source control is a practice that relies on preventative me asures to stop pollutants
before they enter the city’s storm system and subsequently end up in receiving waters. Source Control aims to address
accumulation of non-point source pollutants such as fertilizers, paint, oil and grease, and wash water that originate from
daily business/site activities, spill incidents, improper disposal, or other indirect sources. As such, the SPSC program will
reduce pollutants in surface water runoff from public and private commercial and industrial land uses that discharge into
the city’s stormwater system. The implementation process of this new program is required to meet the following
timeline:
A. Source Control Ordinance: By August 1, 2022, the city must adopt and make effective an ordinance to require the
application of SPSC best management practices (BMPs) from pollutant-generating sources associated with existing land
uses and activities. This ordinance must define the purpose and applicability of the Source Control Program as well as
address the right of entry for inspections, establish a progressive enforcement process, and describe any applicable fines
and penalties for pollutant discharges not resolved through education and outreach. This ordinance will introduce
multiple code amendment to Development Regulations in Title IV.
B. Source Control Inventory: By August 1, 2022, the city must establish an inventory of public and private properties
institutional, commercial, and industrial sites with potential to release pollutants into the stormwater system.
C. Implementation: By January 1, 2023, the city must implement an on-going inspection program and progressive
enforcement policy.
