Comments received within the respective comment periods will be considered in the final determinations regarding the applications. A comment submittal should include the name, address and telephone number of the writer and a concise statement to inform the Department of the exact basis of a comment and the relevant facts upon which it is based.

 The Department will also accept requests for public hearings on applications. A public hearing may be held if the responsible office considers the public response significant. If a hearing is scheduled, a notice of the hearing will be published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and a newspaper of general circulation within the relevant geographical area. The Department will postpone its final determination until after a public hearing is held.

 E. Sector—Specific BMPs (see PAG-03 NPDES General Permit Appendix K)

 F. Site Specific BMPs

 1. Baseline BMPs

 a. Good Housekeeping

 Good housekeeping procedures are designed to maintain a clean and orderly environment. Often common sense housekeeping procedures are the most effective tool in preventing stormwater impacts. A clean and orderly work area will reduce the potential for impacts from the facility operations to stormwater.

 The following is a list of ARSC practices:

 (1) All places of employment, passageways, storerooms, and service rooms are kept clean, orderly and in sanitary condition.

 (2) The site manager is responsible for proper housekeeping practices, and the site is subject to unannounced inspections from a member or ARSC management.

 (3) Means of egress are kept clear of tools, materials, and debris.

 (4) Equipment is visually checked and maintained on a daily basis.

 (5) Wherever possible, materials are stored inside to prevent exposure to weather conditions so as to avoid impacts to the extent possible.

 (6) Trash and rubbish are removed to dumpster on an as-needed basis.

 (7) Drip pans, absorbent pads, and/or other means are used under hose connections and in other situations where minor drips or spills are likely. This is done to maintain safe working conditions and to prevent the release of oil to the environment.

 Incidental drips and spills of regulated substances will be cleaned up immediately using materials and supplies that are maintained on site.

 b. Preventative Maintenance

 The preventative maintenance program identifies areas and equipment that needs to be maintained to prevent as much as possible the possibility of stormwater impacts. Maintenance activities applicable to this facility include the following:

 (1) Replace or repair waste collection bins if damaged or leaking.

 (2) If indications of leaks, spills, or drips are evident anywhere in the facility, identify and correct the problem.

 c. Visual Inspections

 Routine facility inspections shall be conducted by facility personnel. If conditions are discovered which could impact stormwater quality, the Emergency Coordinator shall arrange for corrective action or designate an individual to make such arrangements. Records of corrective actions will be maintained by maintenance personnel.

 d. Spill Prevention and Response

 All employees should receive initial and refresher training in spill response and related environmental issues. All employees are responsible for the cleanup of any spill. Small, routine drips and spills may be cleaned by applying loose absorbent to the spill and then disposing of the absorbent properly.

 If a discharge of a regulated substance occurs, the spill must be reported immediately to the Emergency Coordinator, who will implement appropriate measures to prevent adverse environmental impacts.

 e. Runoff Management Practices

 Runoff management practices prevent runoff from becoming impacted or treat stormwater runoff prior to off-site discharge. Runoff management practices in use at this facility include:

 (1) Grading and paving in operating areas to divert stormwater away from areas that could potentially impact stormwater and prevent mixing with runoff.

 (2) Parking areas are gravel, which allows stormwater to absorb into the ground and also minimizes erosion.

 f. Employee Training

 Environmental Awareness Training is provided to all ARSC employees on an annual basis. The training includes many environmental topics with focus on identification of the environmental impact that can be caused by improper management (i.e., storage, handling, and/or usage) of regulated substances. This training is intended to familiarize employees with requirements related to RCRA, DOT, SPCC, and PPC regulations.

 g. Additional BMPs

 The applicable BMPs and stormwater controls from the ''Salt Institute Voluntary Salt Storage Guidelines for Distribution Stockpiles'' have been incorporated into the facility's PPC Plan.

 2. Stormwater Monitoring and Reporting

 Stormwater monitoring and reporting will be conducted as required by NPDES Permit No. PA0266477 Part A.I. and Part C.V.

 3. Implementation

 The site is expected to maintain compliance with the BMPs discussed earlier by conducting periodic inspections and implementing actions to improve BMPs and preventative maintenance practices. A summary of the schedule for BMPs, such as inspections and training, is provided in Summary of BMP Scheduled table below.

Summary of BMP Schedule

Task/Activity Frequency
BMP Implementation Ongoing
Inspections Quarterly
Good Housekeeping Daily
Preventive Maintenance Quarterly
Spill Prevention and Response Quarterly
Sedimentation and Erosion Control Quarterly
Runoff Management Practices Quarterly
Employee Training Annually
New Employees When Hired
All Employees Initial and Annual Refresher

 Modifications to the current BMPs will be evaluated on a quarterly basis. Based on the findings and recommendations identified from the quarterly inspections, a schedule will be developed to implement maintenance activities. BMPs and maintenance activities proposed based on quarterly inspections are anticipated to be scheduled for implementation during the next quarter, weather permitting.

 4. Stormwater Management

 The goal of the Stormwater Management Program is to minimize the contact between the salt and rainwater, and contain and control all water from the stockpile area with the confines of the pad.

 To minimize contact with precipitation, the stockpile is covered in sections by a waterproof tarp as salt is added to the pile. The seams are watertight and ballast bags are attached to the tarp from the top of the pile to the toe of the pile for resistance to high winds. The covering is properly maintained to prevent precipitation from contacting the salt.

 At a minimum, the cover should be checked on a daily basis to ensure that it is in good condition, that there are no tears, that the seams are watertight, and that the pile is properly covered to prevent exposure of salt to precipitation.

 The perimeter of the stockpile cover is sealed to the pad with ballast where needed to prevent washout of salt from the toe of the stockpile. The perimeter cover ballast is maintained until the stockpile is exhausted.

 At a minimum, the perimeter of the stock pile should be checked on a daily basis to ensure the perimeter of the stockpile cover is sealed to the pad with ballast and that the perimeter is contained within the asphalt berm.

 Dust emissions are curtailed at all points in the unloading system by controlling flow and drop and having the rock salt fall a minimum distance by adjusting the height of the radial stacker during unloading.

 Trucks leaving the unloading area must be tarped by the drivers before departure.

 5. Best Management Practices

 a. Salt Handling

 The facility was designed to minimize and control the generation of dust. The facility operates in a manner that is sensitive to other industrial, commercial, public, and government facilities and residential areas.

 (1) The permittee will avoid handling salt during winds.

 (2) The permittee will minimize the distance the salt must fall from stackers and front end loaders.

 (3) Roadways will be kept clean.

 (4) Salt will be contained with the confining berms of the site.

 (5) The stockpile will be covered to prevent precipitation contact except when receiving salt or loading out to customers.

 (6) Salt spilled by trucks, railcars or other vehicles will be cleaned up promptly.

 (7) Salt will be loaded into trucks within the pad area and loads will not exceed the legal or physical capacity of the truck.

 (8) All trucks must be tarped before leaving the site.

 (9) Salt deliveries to the site and shipments to customers will be scheduled when an employee is onsite to oversee the activities.

 (10) During loadout, the permittee will remove the covering just high enough to load out the day's shipment. This will minimize the moisture absorption by the salt and provide security to the cover if the wind direction shifts toward the working face.

 (11) The working face will be maintained perpendicular to the long axis of the pile by loading alternately left/right and right/left.

 (12) The permittee will avoid creating a horseshoe shaped working face that results from removing the center of the pile and leaving extended edges or aprons.

 (13) Chunks of salt that form as the crust of the pile breaks up will be crushed and blended into the pile and not allowed to accumulate.

 b. General Maintenance.

 General maintenance is very important to the environmental health of the facility.

 (1) On site equipment, as well as trucks picking up salt loads, will be checked regularly for oil leaks. Oil spills will be cleaned up and reported to DEP per regulations.

 (2) The asphalt pad will be inspected for settlement and cracks. Repairs will be made before stockpiling more salt on the area. We will reseal the pad periodically to ensure non-degradation of the low permeability of the pad and base. Expansion joints will be resealed when necessary.

 (3) Visual inspections will be made of the storm water ditches and repaired promptly.

 (4) Housekeeping is very important throughout the site.

 • Part C III. Routine Inspections (standard)

 • Part C IV. Preparedness, Prevention and Contingency (PPC) plan (standard)

 • Part C V. Stormwater Monitoring Requirements (standard)

 • Part C VI. Potential Pollution Reporting

 In addition to the Potential Pollution Reporting required by Part A.III.C.3. of this permit, the permittee shall immediately notify the Department whenever a salt storage stockpile cover is not properly maintained to prevent precipitation from contacting the salt and the permittee observes that stormwater runoff from the pile is causing or threatening pollution to a waterway of the Commonwealth, the permittee shall immediately notify the Department.

 Oral notification to the Department is required as soon as possible, but no later than 4 hours after the permittee becomes aware of the discharge causing or threatening pollution.
