This project alignment is located in mix of grassed, treed and paved areas, with its segments being generally described as follows: • within the existing asphalt pavement along Broomley Road between Flordon Drive and Old Ballard Road; • primarily within a grassed area within the road right-of-way, and adjacent to the existing edge of pavement along Old Ballard Road, between 245 feet west of the Broomley Road intersection and 850 feet west of the Broomley Road intersection; • across the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company right-of-way through treed areas on either side of the railroad tracks with a trenchless crossing of the tracks; • across lands of the Ivy Road Nursery at 570 Broomley Road in both grassed and treed areas; • along the existing tree line on the north side of Ivy Road from 900 feet west of its intersection with Broomley Road, to 440 feet east of its intersection with Broomley Road; • within the existing asphalt pavement along Ivy Road from 440 feet east of its intersection with and across Broomley Road; and, • within a grassed area along the road-right-of-way, and adjacent to the existing edge of pavement, along Ivy Road between Broomley Road at the entrance to the Christian Aid Mission. A portion of the project alignment between Sta. 1+09 and Sta. 4+64 is designated as `Future 8" D.I.P. Water Main (By Others). These improvements are to be constructed under a separate contract as part of a VDOT project (0677-002-823, C-501). Land disturbance activities associated with the VDOT project have been omitted from the ACSA project. 3.3.2 Soils The Natural Resources Conservation Service's Web Soil Survey indicates the following soils which may be present with the project limits: Ivy Road-Flordon Water Connection Project 8 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan—December 2014 Map Unit Map Unit Name Symbol 14E Chester loam,25 to 45 percent slopes 19C Cullen loam, 7 to 15 percent slopes 19D Cullen loam, 15 to 25 percent slopes 3.3.3 Rock No representation is provided regarding the presence or nature of rock within the project limits. The Contract Documents state that all excavations are unclassified. It shall be the Operator's responsibility to determine the nature and extent of rock presence 3.3.4 Critical Areas Disturbances in steep slope areas will be kept to the minimum required for construction in accordance with Chapter 17 of the Albemarle County Code. These areas are anticipated between Old Ballard Road and the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company right-of-way. Soil stabilization mats will be used as required. 3.4 Estimated Area of Disturbance The estimated total area of land disturbance equals approximately 23,428 square feet(0.54 acres), and includes areas of clearing or excavation, as identified on the plans. The trenchless crossing which is located between Ivy Road and Old Ballard Road, and crosses underneath of the existing railroad tracks,will not cause any surface disturbance. No additional off-site staging and/or storage areas are anticipated, or included in the Contract Documents. 3.5 Intended Sequence of Construction All construction methods and materials will conform to the project documents and applicable regulatory requirements including Albemarle County Service Authority standards and/or preferences, City and/or County ordinances, state codes, amendments, and laws. Erosion and sediment control measures shall be placed prior to, or as the first step in construction. The Operator shall be responsible for maintaining these measures throughout the life of the project. In accordance with the Contract Documents, it shall be Operator's responsibility to propose a construction schedule to complete all work in the specified contract completion time period, and the Operator shall be responsible for the sequencing, means and methods, scheduling and coordinating the Work, for monitoring the progress of the Work, and for taking appropriate action to keep the Work on schedule. The actual schedule for implementing pollutant control measures will be determined by project Ivy Road-Flordon Water Connection Project 9 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan—December 2014 construction progress. Down slope protective measures must always be in place before soil is disturbed. Upon re-establishment of seeded areas, and when authorized by Owner or its duly appointed representative(s), after final inspection, the Operator will remove all erosion and sediment controls. SECTION 4: EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PLAN 4.1 Erosion Control Measures Erosion and sediment control shall be in accordance with the Minimum Standards, as set forth under 9VAC25-840-40 of the Virginia Administrative Code. Unless otherwise indicated, all vegetative and structural erosion and sediment control structural practices shall be constructed and maintained according to minimum Standards and Specifications of the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook, latest edition. The Operator shall be required to provide erosion and sediment control measures during all phases of the work. All erosion and sediment control measures shall be installed and maintained in accordance with the Contract Documents. The erosion and sediment controls shown on the plans represent the minimum required. The Operator may be required to provide additional controls as necessary to prevent erosion and sedimentation at the direction of the Owner or its duly appointed representative, or in the event that site conditions require additional controls in order to effectively control erosion and sedimentation. All temporary erosion and sediment control measures shall be removed within thirty (30) days after final site stabilization or after the temporary measures are no longer needed, unless otherwise authorized by the Owner or its duly appointed representative. Trapped sediment and the disturbed soil areas resulting from the disposition of temporary measures shall be permanently stabilized to prevent further erosion and sedimentation. 4.2 Temporary Structural Practices Some controls are intended to function temporarily, and will be used for erosion and sediment control control during the construction period. These include: Standard Erosion and Sediment Control Notes; Temporary Silt Fence, denoted as "SF" on the plans; Tree Protection, denoted as "TP" on the plans; Inlet Protection, denoted as "IP" on the plans; Check Dams, denoted "CD" on the plans;and Permanent Seeding Specifications. Erosion and sediment control measures shall be in accordance with Section 02370 (Erosion and Sediment Control)of the Contract Documents. 4.3 Temporary and Permanent Seeding Seeding and mulching procedures shall conform to the applicable provisions of the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook. Vegetated/grassed areas will be temporarily and permanently stabilized by seeding. Permanent or temporary soil stabilization shall be applied to denuded areas within seven(7)days Ivy Road-Flordon Water Connection Project 10 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan—December 2014 after final grade is reached on any portion of the site. Temporary soil stabilization shall be applied within seven(7)days to denuded areas that may not be at final grade but will remain dormant for longer than fourteen(14)days. Permanent stabilization shall be applied to areas that are to be left dormant for more than one(1)year. Soil stabilization measures shall include (but not limited to) vegetative establishment, mulching, and the early application of gravel base material on areas to be paved. At the beginning of the next planting season, following that in which the permanent grass was sown, the stand will be inspected. Grassed areas will be accepted if a ninety-five percent (95%) cover by permanent grasses has been established and weeds are not excessive. Re-grade, fertilize and reseed any areas not acceptably covered with dense grass or containing significant stands of weeks. Continue to water, weed, fertilize and otherwise maintain the entire stand until the end of that planting season, when another inspection will be made. Only when a dense stand of weed- free grass is established will the planting be accepted. SECTION 5: STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN No modifications to the current drainage pattern will result from this project. The project will result in no changes in stormwater runoff quantity or quality. The Operator shall maintain proper drainage at all times during construction to prevent localized flooding or other detrimental stormwater management conditions. The Operator is required to strengthen, augment, or provide other erosion control measures as required, in order to control erosion. The Operator shall restore drainage patterns and ground cover conditions to be consistent with original materials and conditions. 5.1 Nearest Receiving Waters The project site is located within Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 020802040202—JR07, with the nearest receiving waters to the project site being Ivy Creek. SECTION 6: POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN A variety of temporary stormwater pollution controls or Best Management Practices(BMPs)have been included in the construction plans for this project. These controls are reflected in the erosion and sediment controls notes and details, as shown in the Erosion and Sediment Control plan. Such control measures are considered part of this SWPPP and are to be installed and maintained as a condition of the VSMP General/Stormwater Management Permit issued for this project and Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Law. Note: There are no permanent BMPs to be constructed as a part of this project. Vegetated/grassed areas will be permanently stabilized by seeding. Seeding and mulching procedures shall conform to the applicable provisions of the Virginia Erosion and Sediment Control Handbook. The Operator shall be responsible for prevention of discharge of solid materials and wastes to the surface waters adjacent to the site. Water used for construction, which discharges from the site, must originate from a public water supply or private well approved by the Virginia Department of Health. Water used for construction that does not originate from an approved public supply must Ivy Road-Flordon Water Connection Project 11 Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan—December 2014 not discharge from the site,and it to be retained in ponds until it infiltrates and/or evaporates. The Operator must update the plan to reflect its operation and to identify and maintain current descriptions and storage/locations of all potential pollutant sources. Potential sources of pollution include,but are not limited to: litter, construction debris,recyclable materials,on-site sanitary facilities,dumpsters,waste piles,stockpiles,vehicle wash and concrete truck washout locations, fuels,oils, greases,hydraulic fluids,lubricants,paints,stains,soaps,solvents,detergents, chemicals,fertilizers,or other caustic materials. The Operator shall submit a detailed dewatering plan to the Albemarle County Service Authority, or its duly appointed representative, prior to initiating any excavation or dewatering, in accordance with the plan set. 6.1 Spill Prevention and Control Substances that have the potential for polluting surface and/or groundwater must be controlled by any means necessary to ensure there is no discharge from the project area. The Operator shall provide proper storage, handling, and use of all potential pollutant sources. Such measures will be provided to control drips, leaks or spills, and may include (but not be limited to) secondary containment, such as portable dikes, berms, spill containment pallets, drip pans and spill recovery and cleanup kits. All drips, leaks or spills shall be cleaned in a manner consistent with the magnitude of the impact they represent, and be disposed of in accordance with all local, state and/or Federal regulations. This includes the removal, treatment and disposal of affected soil, to prevent impacts to groundwater. All storage containers, regardless of their contents, shall have approved spill containment where required, be in sound condition, and free of rust, cracks or other damage which might compromise the containment. Hoses,valves, fittings, caps, filler nozzles and associated hardware shall be maintained in proper working condition at all times.

The authorized discharge shall be in accordance with this cover page, Part I - Discharge Authorization and Special Conditions, Part II - Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, and Part III - Conditions Applicable to All VPDES Permits as set forth herein. General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 1 of 21 PART I DISCHARGE AUTHORIZATION AND SPECIAL CONDITIONS A. Coverage under this general permit. 1. During the period beginning with the date of coverage under this general permit and lasting until the general permit's expiration date, the operator is authorized to discharge stormwater from construction activities. 2. This general permit also authorizes stormwater discharges from support activities (e.g., concrete or asphalt batch plants, equipment staging yards, material storage areas, excavated material disposal areas, borrow areas) located on-site or off-site provided that: a. The support activity is directly related to the construction activity that is required to have general permit coverage for discharges of stormwater from construction activities; b. The support activity is not a commercial operation, nor does it serve multiple unrelated construction activities by different operators; c. The support activity does not operate beyond the completion of the last construction activity it supports; d. The support activity is identified in the registration statement at the time of general permit coverage; e. Appropriate control measures are identified in a stormwater pollution prevention plan and implemented to address the discharges from the support activity areas; and f. All applicable state,federal, and local approvals are obtained for the support activity. B. Limitations on coverage. 1. Post-construction discharges. This general permit does not authorize stormwater discharges that originate from the site after construction activities have been completed and the site, including any support activity sites covered under the general permit registration, has undergone final stabilization. Post-construction industrial stormwater discharges may need to be covered by a separate VPDES permit. 2. Discharges mixed with nonstormwater. This general permit does not authorize discharges that are mixed with sources of nonstormwater, other than those discharges that are identified in Part I E (Authorized nonstormwater discharges)and are in compliance with this general permit. 3. Discharges covered by another state permit. This general permit does not authorize discharges of stormwater from construction activities that have been covered under an individual permit or required to obtain coverage under an alternative general permit. 4. Impaired waters and TMDL limitation. Discharges of stormwater from construction activities to surface waters identified as impaired in the 2012 § 305(b)/303(d) Water Quality Assessment Integrated Report or for which a TMDL wasteload allocation has been established and approved prior to the term of this general permit for (i) sediment or a sediment-related parameter (i.e., total suspended solids or turbidity)or(ii) nutrients (i.e., nitrogen or phosphorus)are not eligible for coverage under this general permit unless the operator develops, implements, and maintains a SWPPP that minimizes the pollutants of concern and, when applicable, is consistent with the assumptions and requirements of the approved TMDL wasteload allocations. In addition, the operator shall implement the following items: General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 2of21 a. The impaired water(s), approved TMDL(s), and pollutant(s) of concern, when applicable, shall be identified in the SWPPP; b. Permanent or temporary soil stabilization shall be applied to denuded areas within seven days after final grade is reached on any portion of the site; c. Nutrients shall be applied in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations or an approved nutrient management plan and shall not be applied during rainfall events; and d. The applicable SWPPP inspection requirements specified in Part II F 2 shall be amended as follows: (1) Inspections shall be conducted at a frequency of(i)at least once every four business days or (ii) at least once every five business days and no later than 48 hours following a measurable storm event. In the event that a measurable storm event occurs when there are more than 48 hours between business days, the inspection shall be conducted on the next business day; and (2) Representative inspections used by utility line installation, pipeline construction, or other similar linear construction activities shall inspect all outfalls discharging to surface waters identified as impaired or for which a TMDL wasteload allocation has been established and approved prior to the term of this general permit. 5. Exceptional waters limitation. Discharges of stormwater from construction activities not previously covered under the general permit issued in 2009 to exceptional waters identified in 9VAC25-260-30 A 3 c are not eligible for coverage under this general permit unless the operator implements the following: a. The exceptional water(s)shall be identified in the SWPPP; b. Permanent or temporary soil stabilization shall be applied to denuded areas within seven days after final grade is reached on any portion of the site; c. Nutrients shall be applied in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations or an approved nutrient management plan and shall not be applied during rainfall events; and d. The applicable SWPPP inspection requirements specified in Part II F 2 shall be amended as follows: (1) Inspections shall be conducted at a frequency of(i)at least once every four business days or (ii) at least once every five business days and no later than 48 hours following a measurable storm event. In the event that a measurable storm event occurs when there are more than 48 hours between business days, the inspection shall be conducted on the next business day; and (2) Representative inspections used by utility line installation, pipeline construction, or other similar linear construction activities shall inspect all outfalls discharging to exceptional waters. 6. There shall be no discharge of floating solids or visible foam in other than trace amounts. C. Commingled discharges. Discharges authorized by this general permit may be commingled with other sources of stormwater that are not required to be covered under a state permit, so long as the commingled discharge is in compliance with this general permit. Discharges authorized by a separate state or VPDES permit may be commingled with discharges authorized by this general permit so long as all such discharges comply with all applicable state and VPDES permit requirements. General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 3 of 21 D. Prohibition of nonstormwater discharges. Except as provided in Parts I A 2, I C, and I E, all discharges covered by this general permit shall be composed entirely of stormwater associated with construction activities.

Termination of authorizations to discharge for the conditions set forth in subdivision 1 a of this subsection shall be effective upon notification from the department that the provisions of subdivision 1 a of this subsection have been met or 60 days after submittal of the notice of termination, whichever occurs first. 3. The notice of termination shall be signed in accordance with Part Ill K of this general permit. G.Water quality protection. 1. The operator must select, install, implement and maintain control measures as identified in the SWPPP at the construction site that minimize pollutants in the discharge as necessary to ensure that the operator's discharge does not cause or contribute to an excursion above any applicable water quality standard. 2. If it is determined by the department that the operator's discharges are causing, have reasonable potential to cause, or are contributing to an excursion above any applicable water quality standard, the department, in consultation with the VSMP authority, may take appropriate enforcement action and require the operator to: a. Modify or implement additional control measures in accordance with Part II B to adequately address the identified water quality concerns; b. Submit valid and verifiable data and information that are representative of ambient conditions and indicate that the receiving water is attaining water quality standards; or c. Submit an individual permit application in accordance with 9VAC25-870-410 B 3. All written responses required under this chapter must include a signed certification consistent with Part III K. General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 5of21 PART II STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN A stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) shall be developed prior to the submission of a registration statement and implemented for the construction activity, including any support activity, covered by this general permit. SWPPPs shall be prepared in accordance with good engineering practices. Construction activities that are part of a larger common plan of development or sale and disturb less than one acre may utilize a SWPPP template provided by the department and need not provide a separate stormwater management plan if one has been prepared and implemented for the larger common plan of development or sale. The SWPPP requirements of this general permit may be fulfilled by incorporating by reference other plans such as a spill prevention control and countermeasure (SPCC) plan developed for the site under§ 311 of the federal Clean Water Act or best management practices (BMP) programs otherwise required for the facility provided that the incorporated plan meets or exceeds the SWPPP requirements of Part II A. All plans incorporated by reference into the SWPPP become enforceable under this general permit. If a plan incorporated by reference does not contain all of the required elements of the SWPPP, the operator must develop the missing elements and include them in the SWPPP. Any operator that was authorized to discharge under the general permit issued in 2009, and that intends to continue coverage under this general permit, shall update its stormwater pollution prevention plan to comply with the requirements of this general permit no later than 60 days after the date of coverage under this general permit. A. Stormwater pollution prevention plan contents. The SWPPP shall include the following items: 1. General information. a. A signed copy of the registration statement, if required, for coverage under the general VPDES permit for discharges of stormwater from construction activities; b. Upon receipt, a copy of the notice of coverage under the general VPDES permit for discharges of stormwater from construction activities (i.e., notice of coverage letter); c. Upon receipt, a copy of the general VPDES permit for discharges of stormwater from construction activities; d. A narrative description of the nature of the construction activity, including the function of the project(e.g., low density residential, shopping mall, highway, etc.); e. A legible site plan identifying: (1) Directions of stormwater flow and approximate slopes anticipated after major grading activities; (2) Limits of land disturbance including steep slopes and natural buffers around surface waters that will not be disturbed; (3) Locations of major structural and nonstructural control measures, including sediment basins and traps, perimeter dikes, sediment barriers, and other measures intended to filter, settle, or similarly treat sediment, that will be installed between disturbed areas and the undisturbed vegetated areas in order to increase sediment removal and maximize stormwater infiltration; (4) Locations of surface waters; General Permit No.:VAR10 Page 6 of 21 (5) Locations where concentrated stormwater is discharged; (6) Locations of support activities, when applicable and when required by the VSMP authority, including but not limited to (i) areas where equipment and vehicle washing, wheel wash water, and other wash water is to occur; (ii) storage areas for chemicals such as acids, fuels, fertilizers, and other lawn care chemicals; (iii) concrete wash out areas; (iv) vehicle fueling and maintenance areas; (v) sanitary waste facilities, including those temporarily placed on the construction site; and (vi)construction waste storage; and (7) When applicable, the location of the on-site rain gauge or the methodology established in consultation with the VSMP authority used to identify measurable storm events for inspection purposes. 2.

Any operator that was authorized to discharge under the general permit issued in 2009, and that intends to continue coverage under this general permit, shall ensure compliance with the requirements of 9VAC25-870-93 through 9VAC25-870-99 of the VSMP Regulation, including but not limited to the water quality and quantity requirements. The SWPPP shall include a description of, and all necessary calculations supporting, all post- construction stormwater management measures that will be installed prior to the completion of the construction process to control pollutants in stormwater discharges after construction operations have been completed. Structural measures should be placed on upland soils to the degree possible. Such measures must be designed and installed in accordance with applicable VESCP authority, VSMP authority, state, and federal requirements, and any necessary permits must be obtained. 4. Pollution prevention plan. A pollution prevention plan that addresses potential pollutant-generating activities that may reasonably be expected to affect the quality of stormwater discharges from the construction activity, including any support activity. The pollution prevention plan shall: a. Identify the potential pollutant-generating activities and the pollutant that is expected to be exposed to stormwater; b. Describe the location where the potential pollutant-generating activities will occur, or if identified on the site plan, reference the site plan; c. Identify all nonstormwater discharges, as authorized in Part I E of this general permit, that are or will be commingled with stormwater discharges from the construction activity, including any applicable support activity; d. Identify the person responsible for implementing the pollution prevention practice or practices for each pollutant-generating activity(if other than the person listed as the qualified personnel); e. Describe the pollution prevention practices and procedures that will be implemented to: (1) Prevent and respond to leaks, spills, and other releases including (i) procedures for expeditiously stopping, containing, and cleaning up spills, leaks, and other releases; and (ii) procedures for reporting leaks, spills, and other releases in accordance with Part III G; (2) Prevent the discharge of spilled and leaked fuels and chemicals from vehicle fueling and maintenance activities (e.g., providing secondary containment such as spill berms, decks, spill containment pallets, providing cover where appropriate, and having spill kits readily available); General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 8of21 (3) Prevent the discharge of soaps, solvents, detergents, and wash water from construction materials, including the clean-up of stucco, paint, form release oils, and curing compounds (e.g., providing (i) cover (e.g., plastic sheeting or temporary roofs) to prevent contact with stormwater; (ii) collection and proper disposal in a manner to prevent contact with stormwater; and (iii) a similarly effective means designed to prevent discharge of these pollutants); (4) Minimize the discharge of pollutants from vehicle and equipment washing, wheel wash water, and other types of washing (e.g., locating activities away from surface waters and stormwater inlets or conveyance and directing wash waters to sediment basins or traps, using filtration devices such as filter bags or sand filters, or using similarly effective controls); (5) Direct concrete wash water into a leak-proof container or leak-proof settling basin. The container or basin shall be designed so that no overflows can occur due to inadequate sizing or precipitation. Hardened concrete wastes shall be removed and disposed of in a manner consistent with the handling of other construction wastes. Liquid concrete wastes shall be removed and disposed of in a manner consistent with the handling of other construction wash waters and shall not be discharged to surface waters; (6) Minimize the discharge of pollutants from storage, handling, and disposal of construction products, materials, and wastes including (i) building products such as asphalt sealants, copper flashing, roofing materials, adhesives, and concrete admixtures; (ii) pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, fertilizers, and landscape materials; and (iii) construction and domestic wastes such as packaging materials, scrap construction materials, masonry products, timber, pipe and electrical cuttings, plastics, Styrofoam, concrete, and other trash or building materials; (7) Prevent the discharge of fuels, oils, and other petroleum products, hazardous or toxic wastes, and sanitary wastes; and (8) Address any other discharge from the potential pollutant-generating activities not addressed above; and f.

Information not required to be contained within the SWPPP by this general permit is not required to be released. E. SWPPP implementation. The operator shall implement the SWPPP and subsequent amendments, modifications, and updates from commencement of land disturbance until termination of general permit coverage as specified in Part I F. 1. All control measures must be properly maintained in effective operating condition in accordance with good engineering practices and, where applicable, manufacturer specifications. If a site inspection required by Part II F identifies a control measure that is not operating effectively, corrective action(s) shall be completed as soon as practicable, but no later than seven days after discovery or a longer period as established by the VSMP authority, to maintain the continued effectiveness of the control measures. 2. If site inspections required by Part II F identify an existing control measure that needs to be modified or if an additional control measure is necessary for any reason, implementation shall be completed prior to the next anticipated measurable storm event. If implementation prior to the next anticipated measurable storm event is impracticable, then alternative control measures shall be implemented as soon as practicable, but no later than seven days after discovery or a longer period as established by the VSMP authority. F. SWPPP Inspections. 1. Personnel responsible for on-site and off-site inspections. Inspections required by this general permit shall be conducted by the qualified personnel identified by the operator in the SWPPP. The operator is responsible for insuring that the qualified personnel conduct the inspection. 2. Inspection schedule. a. Inspections shall be conducted at a frequency of: General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 11 of 21 (1) At least once every five business days; or (2) At least once every 10 business days and no later than 48 hours following a measurable storm event. In the event that a measurable storm event occurs when there are more than 48 hours between business days, the inspection shall be conducted no later than the next business day. b. Where areas have been temporarily stabilized or land-disturbing activities will be suspended due to continuous frozen ground conditions and stormwater discharges are unlikely, the inspection frequency may be reduced to once per month. If weather conditions (such as above freezing temperatures or rain or snow events) make discharges likely, the operator shall immediately resume the regular inspection frequency. c. Representative inspections may be utilized for utility line installation, pipeline construction, or other similar linear construction activities provided that: (1) Temporary or permanent soil stabilization has been installed and vehicle access may compromise the temporary or permanent soil stabilization and potentially cause additional land disturbance increasing the potential for erosion; (2) Inspections occur on the same frequency as other construction activities; (3) Control measures are inspected along the construction site 0.25 miles above and below each access point (i.e., where a roadway, undisturbed right-of-way, or other similar feature intersects the construction activity and access does not compromise temporary or permanent soil stabilization); and (4) Inspection locations are provided in the report required by Part II F. 3. Inspection requirements. a. As part of the inspection, the qualified personnel shall: (1) Record the date and time of the inspection and when applicable the date and rainfall amount of the last measurable storm event; (2) Record the information and a description of any discharges occurring at the time of the inspection; (3) Record any land-disturbing activities that have occurred outside of the approved erosion and sediment control plan; (4) Inspect the following for installation in accordance with the approved erosion and sediment control plan, identification of any maintenance needs, and evaluation of effectiveness in minimizing sediment discharge, including whether the control has been inappropriately or incorrectly used: (a) All perimeter erosion and sediment controls, such as silt fence; (b) Soil stockpiles, when applicable, and borrow areas for stabilization or sediment trapping measures; (c) Completed earthen structures, such as dams, dikes, ditches, and diversions for stabilization; General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 12 of 21 (d) Cut and fill slopes; (e) Sediment basins and traps, sediment barriers, and other measures installed to control sediment discharge from stormwater; (f) Temporary or permanent channel, flume, or other slope drain structures installed to convey concentrated runoff down cut and fill slopes; (g) Storm inlets that have been made operational to ensure that sediment laden stormwater does not enter without first being filtered or similarly treated; and (h) Construction vehicle access routes that intersect or access paved roads for minimizing sediment tracking; (5) Inspect areas that have reached final grade or that will remain dormant for more than 14 days for initiation of stabilization activities; (6) Inspect areas that have reached final grade or that will remain dormant for more than 14 days for completion of stabilization activities within seven days of reaching grade or stopping work; (7) Inspect for evidence that the approved erosion and sediment control plan, "agreement in lieu of a plan," or erosion and sediment control plan prepared in accordance with department- approved annual standards and specifications has not been properly implemented. This includes but is not limited to: (a) Concentrated flows of stormwater in conveyances such as rills, rivulets or channels that have not been filtered, settled, or similarly treated prior to discharge, or evidence thereof; (b) Sediment laden or turbid flows of stormwater that have not been filtered or settled to remove sediments prior to discharge; (c) Sediment deposition in areas that drain to unprotected stormwater inlets or catch basins that discharge to surface waters. Inlets and catch basins with failing sediments controls due to improper installation, lack of maintenance, or inadequate design are considered unprotected; (d) Sediment deposition on any property (including public and private streets) outside of the construction activity covered by this general permit; (e) Required stabilization has not been initiated or completed on portions of the site; (f) Sediment basins without adequate wet or dry storage volume or sediment basins that allow the discharge of stormwater from below the surface of the wet storage portion of the basin; (g) Sediment traps without adequate wet or dry storage or sediment traps that allow the discharge of stormwater from below the surface of the wet storage portion of the trap; and (h) Land disturbance outside of the approved area to be disturbed; (8) Inspect pollutant generating activities identified in the pollution prevention plan for the proper implementation, maintenance and effectiveness of the procedures and practices; (9) Identify any pollutant generating activities not identified in the pollution prevention plan; and General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 13 of 21 (10) Identify and document the presence of any evidence of the discharge of pollutants prohibited by this general permit. 4. Inspection report. Each inspection report shall include the following items: a. The date and time of the inspection and when applicable, the date and rainfall amount of the last measurable storm event; b. Summarized findings of the inspection; c. The location(s)of prohibited discharges; d. The location(s)of control measures that require maintenance; e. The location(s) of control measures that failed to operate as designed or proved inadequate or inappropriate for a particular location; f.

Documentation of any corrective actions required from a previous inspection that have not been implemented; and j. The date and signature of the qualified personnel and the operator or its duly authorized representative. The inspection report and any actions taken in accordance with Part II must be retained by the operator as part of the SWPPP for at least three years from the date that general permit coverage expires or is terminated. The inspection report shall identify any incidents of noncompliance. Where an inspection report does not identify any incidents of noncompliance, the report shall contain a certification that the construction activity is in compliance with the SWPPP and this general permit. The report shall be signed in accordance with Part III K of this general permit. G. Corrective actions. 1. The operator shall implement the corrective action(s) identified as a result of an inspection as soon as practicable but no later than seven days after discovery or a longer period as approved by the VSMP authority. If approval of a corrective action by a regulatory authority (e.g., VSMP authority, VESCP authority, or the department) is necessary, additional control measures shall be implemented to minimize pollutants in stormwater discharges until such approvals can be obtained. 2. The operator may be required to remove accumulated sediment deposits located outside of the construction activity covered by this general permit as soon as practicable in order to minimize environmental impacts. The operator shall notify the VSMP authority and the department as well as obtain all applicable federal, state, and local authorizations, approvals, and permits prior to the removal of sediments accumulated in surface waters including wetlands.

For emergencies, the Virginia Department of Emergency Management maintains a 24-hour telephone service at 1-800-468- 8892. General Permit No.:VAR10 Page 17 of 21 4. Where the operator becomes aware of a failure to submit any relevant facts, or submittal of incorrect information in any report, including a registration statement, to the department or the VSMP authority, the operator shall promptly submit such facts or correct information. J. Notice of planned changes. 1. The operator shall give notice to the department and the VSMP authority as soon as possible of any planned physical alterations or additions to the permitted facility or activity. Notice is required only when: a. The operator plans an alteration or addition to any building, structure, facility, or installation that may meet one of the criteria for determining whether a facility is a new source in 9VAC25-870- 420; b. The operator plans an alteration or addition that would significantly change the nature or increase the quantity of pollutants discharged. This notification applies to pollutants that are not subject to effluent limitations in this general permit; or 2. The operator shall give advance notice to the department and VSMP authority of any planned changes in the permitted facility or activity, which may result in noncompliance with state permit requirements. K. Signatory requirements. 1. Registration statement. All registration statements shall be signed as follows: a. For a corporation: by a responsible corporate officer. For the purpose of this chapter, a responsible corporate officer means: (i) a president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in charge of a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy-making or decision-making functions for the corporation; or(ii)the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or operating facilities, provided the manager is authorized to make management decisions that govern the operation of the regulated facility including having the explicit or implicit duty of making major capital investment recommendations, and initiating and directing other comprehensive measures to assure long-term compliance with environmental laws and regulations; the manager can ensure that the necessary systems are established or actions taken to gather complete and accurate information for state permit application requirements; and where authority to sign documents has been assigned or delegated to the manager in accordance with corporate procedures; b. For a partnership or sole proprietorship: by a general partner or the proprietor, respectively; or c. For a municipality, state, federal, or other public agency: by either a principal executive officer or ranking elected official. For purposes of this chapter, a principal executive officer of a public agency includes: (i) the chief executive officer of the agency or (ii) a senior executive officer having responsibility for the overall operations of a principal geographic unit of the agency. 2. Reports, etc. All reports required by this general permit, including SWPPPs, and other information requested by the board or the department shall be signed by a person described in Part Ill K 1 or by a duly authorized representative of that person. A person is a duly authorized representative only if: a. The authorization is made in writing by a person described in Part III K 1; b. The authorization specifies either an individual or a position having responsibility for the overall operation of the regulated facility or activity such as the position of plant manager, operator of a well or a well field, superintendent, position of equivalent responsibility, or an individual or position having overall responsibility for environmental matters for the operator. (A duly authorized General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 18 of 21 representative may thus be either a named individual or any individual occupying a named position); and c. The signed and dated written authorization is included in the SWPPP. A copy must be provided to the department and VSMP authority, if requested. 3. Changes to authorization. If an authorization under Part III K 2 is no longer accurate because a different individual or position has responsibility for the overall operation of the construction activity, a new authorization satisfying the requirements of Part III K 2 shall be submitted to the VSMP authority as the administering entity for the board prior to or together with any reports or information to be signed by an authorized representative. 4. Certification. Any person signing a document under Part III K 1 or 2 shall make the following certification: "I certify under penalty of law that I have read and understand this document and that this document and all attachments were prepared in accordance with a system designed to assure that qualified personnel properly gathered and evaluated the information submitted. Based on my inquiry of the person or persons who manage the system, or those persons directly responsible for gathering the information, the information submitted is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that there are significant penalties for submitting false information, including the possibility of fine and imprisonment for knowing violations." L. Duty to comply. The operator shall comply with all conditions of this general permit. Any state permit noncompliance constitutes a violation of the Virginia Stormwater Management Act and the Clean Water Act, except that noncompliance with certain provisions of this general permit may constitute a violation of the Virginia Stormwater Management Act but not the Clean Water Act. Permit noncompliance is grounds for enforcement action; for state permit termination, revocation and reissuance, or modification; or denial of a state permit renewal application. The operator shall comply with effluent standards or prohibitions established under§ 307(a) of the Clean Water Act for toxic pollutants within the time provided in the regulations that establish these standards or prohibitions or standards for sewage sludge use or disposal, even if this general permit has not yet been modified to incorporate the requirement. M. Duty to reapply. If the operator wishes to continue an activity regulated by this general permit after the expiration date of this general permit, the operator shall submit a new registration statement at least 90 days before the expiration date of the existing general permit, unless permission for a later date has been granted by the board. The board shall not grant permission for registration statements to be submitted later than the expiration date of the existing general permit. N. Effect of a state permit. This general permit does not convey any property rights in either real or personal property or any exclusive privileges, nor does it authorize any injury to private property or invasion of personal rights, or any infringement of federal, state or local law or regulations. O. State law. Nothing in this general permit shall be construed to preclude the institution of any legal action under, or relieve the operator from any responsibilities, liabilities, or penalties established pursuant to any other state law or regulation or under authority preserved by§ 510 of the Clean Water Act. Except as provided in general permit conditions on "bypassing" (Part III U)and "upset" (Part III V), nothing in this general permit shall be construed to relieve the operator from civil and criminal penalties for noncompliance. P. Oil and hazardous substance liability. Nothing in this general permit shall be construed to preclude the institution of any legal action or relieve the operator from any responsibilities, liabilities, or penalties to which the operator is or may be subject under§§ 62.1-44.34:14 through 62.1-44.34:23 of the State Water Control Law or§ 311 of the Clean Water Act. General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 19 of 21 Q. Proper operation and maintenance. The operator shall at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances), which are installed or used by the operator to achieve compliance with the conditions of this general permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes effective plant performance, adequate funding, adequate staffing, and adequate laboratory and process controls, including appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems, which are installed by the operator only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of this general permit. R. Disposal of solids or sludges. Solids, sludges or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or management of pollutants shall be disposed of in a manner so as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering surface waters and in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations. S. Duty to mitigate. The operator shall take all steps to minimize or prevent any discharge in violation of this general permit that has a reasonable likelihood of adversely affecting human health or the environment. T. Need to halt or reduce activity not a defense. It shall not be a defense for an operator in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this general permit. U. Bypass. 1. "Bypass," as defined in 9VAC25-870-10, means the intentional diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility. The operator may allow any bypass to occur that does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to ensure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of Part Ill U 2 and 3. 2. Notice. a. Anticipated bypass. If the operator knows in advance of the need for a bypass, the operator shall submit prior notice to the department, if possible at least 10 days before the date of the bypass. b. Unanticipated bypass. The operator shall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part III I. 3. Prohibition of bypass. a. Except as provided in Part III U 1, bypass is prohibited, and the board or department may take enforcement action against an operator for bypass unless: (1) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe property damage. Severe property damage means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities that causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources that can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production; (2) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes, or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate back-up equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass that occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and (3) The operator submitted notices as required under Part III U 2. General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 20 of 21 b. The department may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse effects, if the department determines that it will meet the three conditions listed in Part III U 3 a. V. Upset. 1. An "upset," as defined in 9VAC25-870-10, means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology-based state permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the operator. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance, or careless or improper operation. 2. An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with technology- based state permit effluent limitations if the requirements of Part III V 4 are met. A determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is not a final administrative action subject to judicial review. 3. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventative maintenance, or careless or improper operation. 4. An operator who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs or other relevant evidence that: a. An upset occurred and that the operator can identify the cause(s)of the upset; b. The permitted facility was at the time being properly operated; c. The operator submitted notice of the upset as required in Part III I; and d. The operator complied with any remedial measures required under Part III S. 5. In any enforcement proceeding, the operator seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof. W. Inspection and entry. The operator shall allow the department as the board's designee, the VSMP authority, EPA, or an authorized representative of either entity (including an authorized contractor), upon presentation of credentials and other documents as may be required by law to: 1. Enter upon the operator's premises where a regulated facility or activity is located or conducted, or where records must be kept under the conditions of this general permit; 2. Have access to and copy, at reasonable times, any records that must be kept under the conditions of this general permit; 3. Inspect and photograph at reasonable times any facilities, equipment (including monitoring and control equipment), practices, or operations regulated or required under this general permit; and 4. Sample or monitor at reasonable times, for the purposes of ensuring state permit compliance or as otherwise authorized by the Clean Water Act or the Virginia Stormwater Management Act, any substances or parameters at any location. For purposes of this section, the time for inspection shall be deemed reasonable during regular business hours, and whenever the facility is discharging. Nothing contained herein shall make an inspection unreasonable during an emergency. General Permit No.: VAR10 Page 21 of21 X. State permit actions. State permits may be modified, revoked and reissued, or terminated for cause. The filing of a request by the operator for a state permit modification, revocation and reissuance, or termination, or a notification of planned changes or anticipated noncompliance does not stay any state permit condition. Y. Transfer of state permits. 1. State permits are not transferable to any person except after notice to the department. Except as provided in Part III Y 2, a state permit may be transferred by the operator to a new operator only if the state permit has been modified or revoked and reissued, or a minor modification made, to identify the new operator and incorporate such other requirements as may be necessary under the Virginia Stormwater Management Act and the Clean Water Act. 2. As an alternative to transfers under Part III Y 1, this state permit may be automatically transferred to a new operator if: a. The current operator notifies the department at least 30 days in advance of the proposed transfer of the title to the facility or property; b. The notice includes a written agreement between the existing and new operators containing a specific date for transfer of state permit responsibility, coverage, and liability between them; and c. The department does not notify the existing operator and the proposed new operator of its intent to modify or revoke and reissue the state permit. If this notice is not received, the transfer is effective on the date specified in the agreement mentioned in Part III Y 2 b. 3. For ongoing construction activity involving a change of operator, the new operator shall accept and maintain the existing SWPPP, or prepare and implement a new SWPPP prior to taking over operations at the site. Z. Severability. The provisions of this general permit are severable, and if any provision of this general permit or the application of any provision of this state permit to any circumstance, is held invalid, the application of such provision to other circumstances and the remainder of this general permit shall not be affected thereby.
