941.07 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN.

   (a)   The applicant shall submit a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) consistent with the requirements the most recent Ohio EPA NPDES General Construction Permit. For specific requirements of a SWP3 the designer shall refer to the NPDES Ohio general construction permit and the Summit SWCD SWP3 Check List. The SWP3 must address erosion and sediment control during construction as well as post construction water quality practices. Post construction practices must meet the requirements of the NPDES Ohio general construction permit and the Summit County Storm Water Management Manual.

   (b)   The SWP3 shall be certified by a Qualified Individual

   (c)   The SWP3 shall incorporate measures as recommended by the most current edition of Rainwater and Land Development: Ohio's Standards for Stormwater Management, Land Development and Urban Stream Protection as published by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources or other technical manuals approved by the Summit SWCD.

   (d)   All sediment settling ponds shall be dewatered at the pond surface using a skimmer or equivalent device.

   (e)   Soils erodibility report: The Summit SWCD may require the SWP3 to include a Soils Engineering Report based upon his/her determination that the conditions of the soils are unknown or unclear to the extent that additional information is required to protect against erosion. This report shall contain all the information listed below.

      (1)   Data regarding the nature and erodibility of existing soils.

      (2)   If applicable, data regarding the nature and erodibility of the soil to be placed on the site.

      (3)   Conclusions and recommendations for grading procedures.

      (4)   Conclusions and recommended designs for interim soil stabilization devices and measures, for permanent soil stabilization after construction is completed.

   (f)   If an Operator's site discharges into a watershed with an approved TMDL, the qualified individual shall select BMPs and provide a rationale for the individual's selection of BMPs based upon pollutant removal performance and watershed pollutants of concern.
