The City Engineer will adopt requirements identifying Best Management Practices (BMP's) for any activity, operation, or facility which may cause or contribute to pollution or contamination of storm water, the storm drain system, or waters of the U.S. The owner or operator of a commercial or industrial establishment shall provide, at their own expense, reasonable protection from accidental discharge of prohibited materials or other wastes into the municipal storm drain system or watercourses through the use of these structural and non-structural BMP's. Further, any person responsible for a property or premise, which is, or may be, the source of an illicit discharge, may be required to implement, at said person's expense additional structural and non- structural BMP's to prevent the further discharge of pollutants to the municipal separate storm sewer system. Compliance with all terms and conditions of a valid activity, to the extent practicable, shall be deemed compliance with the provisions of this section. These BMP's shall be part of a storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPP) for compliance with requirements of the NPDES permit.
