§ 53.076 POLICY ON STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION FOR CONSTRUCTION SITES.
   (A)   Effective storm water pollution prevention on construction sites is dependent on a combination of preventing movement of soil from its original position (erosion control), intercepting displaced soil prior to entering a waterbody (sediment control), and proper on-site materials handling.
   (B)   All permittees shall manage storm water discharges as necessary to meet the narrative water quality criteria (327 IAC 2-1-6(a)(l)(A-D) and 327 IAC 2-1.5-8(a) and (b)(l)(A-D) for any discharge authorized by this chapter and CSGP, with compliance required upon beginning such a discharge. For storm water discharges, the use of storm water management measures and planning principles is expected to achieve the control necessary to meet water quality criteria.
   (C)   The SWPPP will serve as a guideline for storm water management but should not be interpreted to be the only basis for implementation of storm water measures for a project site. The permittee is responsible for implementing all measures necessary to comply with the provisions of this chapter and the CSGP.
   (D)   All storm water management measures, including erosion and sediment control measures and post-construction measures, shall be implemented in accordance with this chapter, the Standards, the terms and conditions of the approved storm water management permit, and CSGP.
