3 Storm Water Plan Santa Ynez Road Yard Page: 3 of 24 Section 1.0 Introduction This Storm Water Plan (Plan) is for the Santa Ynez Road Yard, which describes the County s storm water pollution prevention program for the Yard. Its goal is to reduce storm water contact with potential pollutants, preventing their entry into the storm water system. Key elements in the plan are the identification of potential pollution sources, the corresponding Best Management Practices (BMPs) to limit these sources, and on-going assessment of BMP effectiveness. The location of the facility is presented on the Site Vicinity Map in Section 3: the map coordinates are UTM E, N. Only activities taking place in the Santa Ynez Road Yard are included in this Plan. Annual performance reviews of practices implemented in the Plan are included to verify and improve performance with the passage of time. As conditions and practices change the appropriate sections should be changed to reflect the modifications. This plan addresses the regulatory requirements as specified in the Santa Barbara County NPDES Storm Water Permit and the requirements set forth in the County s Storm Water Management Plan. 1.1 Plan Preparation The purpose of this Plan is to describe the Yard, identify sources and potential sources of impacts to surface water and implement preventative activities. Most of the preventative activities are to be implemented prior to inclement weather and not during inclement weather. The Plan also presents a description of where hazardous materials are stored in the event of an emergency at the Yard. The scope of work included the following tasks: Task 1. Site Examination Reviewed the layout of the site, site operations, and training records, performed interviews, and reviewed existing permits for the facility. Contacted Caltrans for copies of similar documents for their facilities. Collaboration with Project Clean Water, Water Resources Division, Public Works Department, who provided the Plan template for modification. Task 2. Mapping. Performance of a mapping effort to determine the drainage from the site and where the drainage moves to off-site. Task 3-Plan Preparation. Preparation of this Plan documenting the site drainage, type of hazardous materials, their quantities, and location within the Yard, and preparation of present and future sediment control practices to reduce surface water impacts leaving the Yard.

10 Storm Water Plan Santa Ynez Road Yard Page: 10 of Yard Equipment Emulsion Tank The greatest single storage quantity of liquid at the Yard is in a 4,000-gallon capacity above ground tank used to store asphalt emulsion at ambient temperature. The 14-foot high tank is standing on its end and stores the emulsion at ambient temperature. The tank has a radius of 3.50 feet, a length of 14 feet, and a maximum volume of 3,800 gallons. The material safety data sheet for the emulsion indicates that the material does not have a flash point. The only hazard from the emulsion is that it may foam if heated to above 212 degrees F. The emulsion does not apparently poise a health hazard, according to the MSDS, but it could irritate the eyes and also cause a mild skin irritation. Photograph No. 3. Emulsion Tank. Close-up view of the 14-foot high, 7-foot diameter steel tank used to contain non-flash point emulsion. Note lack of spills at this tank. Note that a drip pan is needed under the nozzle to assure no future leaks from the nozzle (SC-8: 4). Oilfield pumping unit is operation in the right portion of the photograph.

12 Storm Water Plan Santa Ynez Road Yard Page: 12 of 24 Section 6.0 Site Activities, Potential Pollutants, Current and Future Control Measures: 6.1 Locations and Types of Hazardous Substances A coordinate location system has been adopted from County Environmental Health Department to locate the hazardous substances. Summarized in this Plan are the locations and quantities of the hazardous materials at the Yard. A summary table of the hazardous Materials and their approximate quantities ate contained in Table 3- Summary of Hazardous Materials. Table 3 Summary of Hazardous Materials Coordinate Hazardous Material Approximate Quantity (gal) 6-A Emulsion Tank 4,000 max. 3-C Diesel Fuel, Gasoline C Round-Up Herbicide Sediment Management Controlling suspended sediments during storm water runoff along the southern perimeter of the Yard is needed during inclement weather. 6.3 Storm Water Pollution Control Measures Presented in Table 4-Storm Water Pollution Control Measures, are the site activities, associated pollutants and control measures under implementation to reduce pollutants in storm water. The following table identifies the road yard onsite activities, their associated pollutants and controls. The Site Activities and Potential Pollutants columns identify specific activities and pollutants with the potential to pollute storm water. By definition, potential pollutants are substances that would pollute storm water if allowed to enter the storm water system. Therefore, the controls listed ensure that potential pollutants do not become actual pollutants. The Current Controls Measures column identifies the practices currently being implemented to reduce potential pollutants. While the Future Controls Measures are scheduled to be implemented on or before the date shown. If no date is shown, described practice will be implemented immediately. Best Management Practice (BMP) fact sheets are coordinated with site activities to achieve the greatest practicable reduction in potential pollutants. These BMPs are activity-based and will be implemented anywhere onsite the activity occurs, including indoors when appropriate. A copy of each of BMP listed can be found in Appendix A G:/Group/ Construction/ Tracy/ Storm Water Plan, Santa Ynez Road Yard

113 date Water Quality Prevention Protocol for Pollution Prevention Practices and Reporting South County Garage Page: 14 of 27 Section 5.0 Site Activities, Potential Pollutants, Current and Future Control Measures: The following table identifies the facility s onsite activities, their associated pollutants and controls. The Site Activities and Potential Pollutants columns identify specific activities and pollutants with the potential to pollute storm water. By definition, potential pollutants are substances that would pollute storm water if allowed to enter the storm water system. Therefore, the controls listed ensure that potential pollutants do not become actual pollutants. The Current Controls Measures column identifies the practices currently being implemented to reduce potential pollutants. While the Future Controls Measures are scheduled to be implemented on or before the date shown. If no date is shown, described practice will be implemented immediately. Best Management Practice (BMP) fact sheets are coordinated with site activities to achieve the greatest practicable reduction in potential pollutants. These BMPs are activity-based and will be implemented anywhere onsite the activity occurs, including indoors when appropriate. A copy of each of BMP listed can be found in Appendix A.

135 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol South County Flood Control Yard Page: 9 of 19 Section 5.0 Potential Pollutants, Current and Future Control Measures: The following table identifies the road yard onsite activities, their associated pollutants and controls. The Site Activities and Potential Pollutants columns identify specific activities and pollutants with the potential to pollute storm water. By definition, potential pollutants are substances that would pollute storm water if allowed to enter the storm water system. Therefore, the controls listed ensure that potential pollutants do not become actual pollutants. The Current Controls Measures column identifies the practices currently implemented to reduce potential pollutants. While the Future Controls Measures are scheduled to be implemented on or before the date shown. If no date is shown, the described practice will be implemented immediately. Best Management Practice (BMP) fact sheets are coordinated with site activities to achieve the greatest practicable reduction in potential pollutants. These BMPs are activity-based and will be implemented anywhere onsite the activity occurs, including indoors when appropriate. A copy of each referenced BMP is contained in Appendix A.

The capacity of each drum is 55 gallons. 4.2 Yard Equipment Emulsion Tank The greatest single storage quantity of liquid at the Yard is an aboveground tank used to store asphalt emulsion. The tank has a diameter of 7 feet, a height of 14 feet, and a maximum volume of 5275 gallons. The tank has a volume gauge vertically aligned on the tank and is graduated in one foot increments. The materials safety data sheet indicates that the material does not have a regulated flash point. The only hazard from the emulsion is that it may foam if heated to above 212 o F. A Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan is needed for this tank according to the regulations because its volume exceeds 1320 gallons.

160 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Santa Maria Corp. Yard Page: 15 of 29 Photograph No. 8: Emulsion Tank located at the Southern end of the Yard. It has a diameter of 7 ft, a height of 14 ft, and a maximum volume of 5275 gallons. The tank is well protected with an aluminum shield from three sides. The tank needs to have an approach SPCC plan. Photograph No. 9: Located next to the emulsion tank, this bin is used to collect waste emulsion and diesel fuel. Behind the wall is the bunker used to store used diesel.

161 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Santa Maria Corp. Yard Page: 16 of 29 Section 5.0 Site Activities, Potential Pollutants, Current and Future Control Measures 5.1 Storm Water Pollution Control Measures Presented in Table 4-Storm Water Pollution Control Measures, are the site activities, associated pollutants and control measures that need to be implemented to reduce pollutants in storm water. The following table identifies the road Yard onsite activities, their associated pollutants and planned controls. The Site Activities and Potential Pollutants columns identify specific activities and pollutants with the potential to pollute storm water. By definition, potential pollutants are substances that would pollute storm water if allowed to enter the storm water system. Therefore, the controls listed should reduce impacts to surface water. The Current Controls Measures column identifies the practices currently being implemented to reduce potential pollutants, while the Future Control Measures are scheduled to be implemented on or before the date shown. If no date is shown, the described practice will be implemented immediately. Best Management Practice (BMP) fact sheets are coordinated with site activities to achieve the greatest practicable reduction in potential pollutants. These BMPs are activity-based and will be implemented anywhere onsite the activity occurs, including indoors when appropriate. A copy of each of BMP listed can be found in Appendix A. 5.2 Locations and Types of Hazardous Substances The quantities of the hazardous materials at the Yard are contained in Table 3- Summary of Hazardous Substances. Table 3 Summary of Hazardous Substances Hazardous Substance Approximate Quantity (gal) Welding Oxygen Bottles Emulsion Tank 5275 Welding Acetylene Bottles 6605 Traffic Paint 715 Motor Oil 630 Herbicide 895 Cleaning Solvent 35 Fuels 30 Paint (Aerosol Cans) 24 (Cans)

162 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Santa Maria Corp. Yard Page: 17 of Materials Storage Management The concrete rubble is kept for erosion repair. Stored culvert has been galvanized to protect from rust. Finally, the bunkers at the southern part of the site may be covered especially those used for storing gravel and asphalt (Photography 4). 5.4 Hazardous Waste Management Traffic-paint drums shown in Photograph No. 6 will be periodically inspected for leaks and exchanged for newer containers if corrosion is present. Storm water contact with hazardous waste will be minimized as indicated in Table 4. Although an asphalt berm prevents the paint from going down the slope towards the culvert, during storm conditions the spilled paint will overcome the berm. In addition, the emulsion bunker, next to the emulsion tank, has secondary spill containment. The container used for storing the used diesel, pictured in Photograph No. 8, has a secure cover to prevent rain from mixing with the liquid or overflowing from the container. 5.5 Sediment Management Controlling suspended sediments in storm water runoff in the Yard is needed by periodic sweeping.

185 Storm Water Plan Lompoc County Road Yard Page: 11 of Yard Equipment Emulsion Tank The greatest single storage quantity of liquid at the Yard is in a 4,000-gallon capacity above ground tank used to store asphalt emulsion at ambient temperature. His 14-foot high-unsecured tank is standing on its end and stores the emulsion at ambient temperature. The tank has a diameter of 7 feet, a length of 14 feet, and a maximum volume of 4,000 gallons. The tank does not have a volume gauge. The materials safety data sheet indicates that the material does not have a flash point. The only hazard from the emulsion is that it may foam if heated to above 212 degrees F. The emulsion does not apparently poise a health hazard, according to the MSDS, but it could irritate the eyes and also cause a mild skin irritation. A Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan is needed for this tank according to the regulations because its volume exceeds 660 gallons.

This 16-foot-high tank is standing on its end and stores the emulsion at ambient temperature. The tank has a radius of 3.18 feet, a length of 16 feet, and a maximum volume of 3,800 gallons. The tank has a volume gauge vertically aligned on the tank and is graduated in one foot increments. The gauge reads 240 gallons per foot of gauge increment. The attached materials safety data sheet indicates that the material does not have a flash point. The only hazard from the emulsion is that it may foam if heated to above 212 degrees F. The emulsion does not apparently poise a health hazard, according to the MSDS, but it could irritate the eyes and also cause a mild skin irritation. The tank is scheduled for decommissioning and removal during FY A Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan is not needed for this tank according to the Fire Department, because it is scheduled for decommissioning and removal from the Yard within the next three years (2005) Spray Out Tank This tank collects the spray out (clean-out) from road crew trucks and is located in the north half of the Yard. The spray out contains waste diesel fuel mixed with water and is flushed to the emulsion tank. The spray-out tank has a radius of 1.84 feet, a length of 7 feet, and a volume of 550 gallons. This tank is exempt from the criteria requiring a SPCC Plan because its volume is less than the minimum regulated volume of 660 gallons indicated in the SPCC application.

The materials are allowed to be permanently stored in the Yard under lock and key, as per a federal permit. 6.2 Sediment Management Controlling suspended sediments during storm water runoff in the eastern portion of the Yard is needed at the culvert located in the east portion of the Yard, as shown in Photograph No. 5. Soil layer in the photograph partially overlies asphalt surface, and has a potential to spread sediment and scattered solids into the culvert and off-site into receiving waters. Suspended sediment should be trapped with a non-blocking screening technology drop inlet structure capable of passing floodwaters draining an area comprising four acres without clogging. The design will be difficult as there is insufficient fall for most drop inlets, which require a minimum of 4.5 feet of drop. G:/Group/ Construction/ Tracy/ Storm Water Plan, Santa Barbara Road Yard

214 Storm Water Plan South County Road Yard Page: 15 of Storm Water Pollution Control Measures Presented in Table 4-Storm Water Pollution Control Measures, are the site activities, associated pollutants and control measures under implementation to reduce pollutants in storm water. The following table identifies the road yard onsite activities, their associated pollutants and controls. The Site Activities and Potential Pollutants columns identify specific activities and pollutants with the potential to pollute storm water. By definition, potential pollutants are substances that would pollute storm water if allowed to enter the storm water system. Therefore, the controls listed ensure that potential pollutants do not become actual pollutants. The Current Controls Measures column identifies the practices currently being implemented to reduce potential pollutants. While the Future Controls Measures are scheduled to be implemented on or before the date shown. If no date is shown, described practice will be implemented immediately. Best Management Practice (BMP) fact sheets are coordinated with site activities to achieve the greatest practicable reduction in potential pollutants. These BMPs are activity-based and will be implemented anywhere onsite the activity occurs, including indoors when appropriate. A copy of each of BMP listed can be found in Appendix A.

Training is important because one mistake or misunderstanding has the potential to create a costly pollution episode. Storm water BMP training can be incorporated into your regular employee tailgate training. Routine training is the best way to get BMPs integrated into your operations. Periodically check employee s work practices to ensure correct implementation. Note issues in the next training session so the entire staff is informed on the proper procedure to follow. Real life examples add relevancy to the training, encourage the staff to discuss these examples. They provide the excellent guidance for future work. Also provide general storm water pollution prevention information to employees, as well, employees tend to respond best if they have the why and wherefore of a new program and procedure.

Santa Barbara County Traffic Section Procedures on Handling, Recycling, and Disposing of Paint Waste (Generated by Traffic Maintenance Crews) PROCEDURES FOR STENCIL TRUCK: When cleaning out spray guns and or paint system; all paint must be sprayed or poured into 5 gallon buckets for proper disposal or recycle. *According to paint and equipment manufactures if air does not enter the system it is not necessary to flush the paint system on a daily basis, reducing the amount of paint waste generated by maintenance crews. 1. When you are done painting, deploy drop cloths in areas where the transfer of paint is planned to prevent spillage to the ground. Remove the siphon tube from the bucket of used paint and place it into a clean 5gallon bucket of water. 2. Spray the remaining paint that is in the line into the bucket that has the used paint until the paint in the line becomes watered down. 3. Turn pump system off, bleed of pressure in system, remove inline filters and drain any paint left in filter canister into the bucket that has the remainder of used paint. Then clean canister and filter with water. 4. At the end of a day all cans of empty paint that were used will have some remaining paint in them, open lids and pour remaining paint into the partial can of used paint. 5. After all excess paint has been sprayed or poured back into the bucket of used paint, strain this paint and re-use next time out. 6. The buckets that are used for cleaning and recycling; the water will eventually become unusable, take these buckets with dirty paint water and dump them into a designated container that contains sand for absorption and let air dry. Then dispose the sand at a landfill according to their regulations. 7. The sand container should be approximately 4 wide x 8 long x 2 high. It should be sealed along all seems with silicon calking, and covered with a lid with that has a padlock on it G:/Group/ Construction/ Tracy/ Storm Water Plan, Santa Barbara Road Yard

221 Storm Water Plan South County Road Yard Page: 22 of 29 to keep children, birds, and wildlife from accidentally coming in contact with contaminated sand. This container should be placed on pallets and kept of the ground, in the event of flooding due to rain. 8. This container should be labeled of it s contents and the lid be locked. It should also be kept in a designated fenced area so that unauthorized personnel won t accidentally dump unknown products or waste in it. 9. All empty plastic paint buckets will have some paint residue in them. Place these cans in the fenced in area to air dry, then dispose the empty buckets in a dumpster according to local landfill regulations. ] 10. All wet paint cleaning procedures should be done in a contained area that has a 5 berm surrounding your work area. In the event of a small paint spill cover with sand, put it into your contained sand container, let dry, and dispose of according to local landfill regulations. STENCIL PREPERATION AND CLEANING: 1. Stencil coat should be applied in designated area on sawhorses placed over disposable plastic canvas, or a concrete pad for easy clean up. 2. Cleaning and scraping off dry paint should be done on sawhorses placed over disposable plastic canvas, or a concrete pad for easy clean up. 3. All dry paint that was removed or scraped off stencils, should be disposed of in a dumpster according to local landfill regulations. In the event that dry paint scrapings fall or blow into surrounding areas, clean up thoroughly and dispose of in a dumpster according to local landfill regulations.

231 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Cuyama Road Yard Page: 3 of 22 Section 1.0 Introduction This Water Quality Protection Protocol is for the Cuyama Road Yard, which is located in the northeast corner of Santa Barbara County. This protocol describes the storm water pollution prevention program for the Yard. Its goal is to reduce storm water contact with potential pollutants, preventing their entry into the storm water system. Key elements in the protocol are the identification of potential pollution sources, the corresponding Best Management Practices (BMP) to limit these sources, and on-going assessment of BMP effectiveness. The location of the facility is presented on the Site Vicinity Map in Section 4. The protocol only includes activities taking place in the Cuyama Road Yard are included in this Protocol. Annual performance reviews of practices implemented in the Protocol are included to verify and improve performance with the passage of time. As conditions and practices change the appropriate sections should be changed to reflect the modifications. This protocol addresses the regulatory requirements as specified in the Santa Barbara County NPDES Storm Water Permit and the requirements set forth in the County s Storm Water Management Plan. 1.1 Protocol Preparation The purpose of this protocol is to describe the Yard, identify sources and potential sources of impacts to surface water, and implement preventative activities to be performed during periods of inclement weather. The protocol also presents a description of where hazardous substances are stored in the event of a hazardous release to the environment at the Yard. The scope of work included the following tasks: Task 1. Site Examination Reviewed the layout of the site, site operations; performed interviews; collaborated with Project Clean Water, Water Resources Division, Public Works Department, who provided the Plan template for modification. Task 2. Mapping. Performance of a mapping effort to determine the areas of permeable and impermeable surfaces at the Yard. Task 3. Protocol Preparation. Preparation of this protocol documenting the site drainage; type of hazardous materials, their quantities, and location within the Yard; and preparation of present and future sediment control practices to reduce offsite surface water impacts.

232 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Cuyama Road Yard Page: 4 of 22 Section 2.0 General Facility information A fenced perimeter is maintained around most of the boundary of the 1.2-acre yard site. The site is restricted to maintenance personnel and contractors conducting county business. No unauthorized personnel should enter the site. The yard is home to the Maintenance Section of Public Works (Maintenance) whose mission is to maintain the public roads facilities in the unincorporated portions of the county near the City of Cuyama. Facility Name: County of Santa Barbara, Public Works Department, Cuyama Road Yard Facility Address: 5073 Highway 166, Cuyama, CA Location: The yard is located on Highway 166 next to the city of Cuyama in a primarily rural area of Santa Barbara County, California. Weather Conditions: Commonly it is cool in winter, hot in summer with moderate winds. The average annual rainfall is 14 inches. 2.1 Organization The following personnel are designated to carry out storm water-related job functions pertaining to the site activities. The Clean Water Program is a coalition of government agencies, community groups, and individuals. The goal of the program is to investigate and implement solutions to the contamination in local creeks. Summarized below in Table 1-Key Personnel, are the key personnel responsible for this protocol s implementation: Table 1 Key Personnel Department/Section Manager Telephone Site Manager Stu Torell Public Works Maintenance Superintendent Gary Christiansen

233 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Cuyama Road Yard Page: 5 of 22 Section 3.0 Vicinity Map Description of Yard Location: The yard is located along US Highway 166 northeast of Santa Barbara, California.

234 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Cuyama Road Yard Page: 6 of 22 Section 3.1 Site Map Section 4.0 contains both a Site Map and a Utilization Map. The Site Map presents the layout of the yard with buildings and the locations and acreages of the various types of ground surfaces.

235 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Cuyama Road Yard Page: 7 of 22 Section 4.0 Facility Description Major Outdoor Activities: Outdoor storage of road maintenance materials Outdoor vehicle and equipment maintenance activities Outdoor vehicle and equipment wash areas Outdoor new and used vehicle storage Outdoor new and used equipment storage Drainage The yard lacks a system of drainage due to its small size. The water accumulates in the middle of the yard where it eventually evaporates. Branch creek passes at the northern end of the yard, but the slope forces draining towards the middle of the yard, away from the creek toward highway 166. Property area: 1.2 Acres. Area was determined using the Solid Waste Management Division map. Pervious area: Storm water discharge point: None Major receiving waters: Primary: Drain towards Hwy 166 Secondary: none Land Use Primarily agricultural and open space. Vegetation The adjacent area to the West is covered with native brush and native grasses. Annual maintenance of brush clearing is carried-out to minimize fire hazards during the summer period. 4.1 Land Use An analysis of land use at the yard was conducted using the Solid Waste Management Division map. The total area and the scale on the map were used to calculate individual areas of the land use. The results are tabulated in Table 2-Land Use Utilization At The Road Yard. According to Table 2 the only building on the site comprise about 0.04 acres of land or 3.4 percent of the total area. The paved area at the Yard is at 0.2 acres or 17.3 percent of the entire 1.2 acres, and the

236 Initial Protocol: Water Quality Protection Protocol Cuyama Road Yard Page: 8 of 22 gravel area comprises the most utilization at 0.9 acres or 79.3 percent of the total area in the Yard.
