9 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 1 Purpose and Goals of the Port of Stockton Storm Water Development Standards The Port of Stockton has developed this Storm Water Development Standards Plan (DSP) in response to the requirements contained in its Municipal Separate Storm Water Sewer System (MS4) NPDES Permit. However, this DSP document also will assist the Port to accomplish the following objectives: To assist the Port in the gradual development of its master plan for the overall management and infrastructure for storm water conveyance and control. To provide well-defined and consistent storm water development standards and an equitable review and approval process of proposed development for the Port s existing and future tenants. To protect the quality of the storm water runoff and the receiving waters that surrounds the Port. The following describes in more detail the purpose and goals of this DSP. 1.1 The Function of the Storm Water Development Standards Plan The following six statements summarize the function of the DSP: Summary of the Port of Stockton s Development Standards Plan Initiated by the initial CEQA and regulatory consultation with applicants. Implemented during the project development phase and verified by the Port Environmental proposed project review phase. Identifies minimum, drainage zone specific, and activity specific best management practices (BMPs) Incorporates the California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA) approved design standards Involves the review of the developer-submitted site-specific Development Standards Plan and proposed control measures and approval by the Port staff Properties and Environmental Departments. Integrates the Port s overall Storm Water Management Plan 1 P age

10 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 1.2 Regulatory Basis On October 5, 2000, the California State Water Resources Control Board (State Board) adopted Order WQ , which set as a precedent the requirement to utilize Standard Urban Storm Water Mitigation Plans (SUSMPs, later referred to as Development Standards). The SUSMPs were initially adopted by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) to require treatment controls for new development and significant redevelopment. However, recognizing that the decision included significant legal or policy determinations that are likely to recur (Gov. Code ), the Central Valley RWQCB in concurrence with the State Board has decided to be consistent with applicable portions of the State Board s decision and include Development Standards requirements in the MS4 permits. The Port of Stockton s current MS4 permit (R ) states that the Port must prepare and submit to the Central Valley RWQCB a Development Standards Plan by March 1, 2005 and must implement that plan within three months of its approval. The DSP was approved by the RWQCB on November 19, 2005 and became effective on February 17, Storm Water Management and Infrastructure Planning The primary purpose of the DSP is to incorporate into the design of facilities permanent control measures to mitigate pollutants in storm water and to maintain post-development runoff rates to as close to the pre-development rates as possible. Other purposes of this DSP is to assist the Port in the overall management and infrastructure planning for handling of storm water runoff to prevent localized flooding, erosion of surfaces, sedimentation deposits, and to protect receiving water quality. Therefore, the BMPs specified in this DSP, not only address water quality, but also form a part of the overall storm water management strategy of the Port. The Port can be divided into three distinct drainage zones. They are as follows: West Complex: The Port of Stockton West Complex is located on Rough and Ready Island. This area is populated predominately by light industry, commercialrelated businesses, agriculture, and undeveloped land. Storm water runoff occurs mostly by surface flow via open culverts and ditches and is discharged from a pump station to the adjacent Burns Cutoff, a part of the San Joaquin River system. Surface runoff flows to this point where it is pumped to the Burns Cutoff 2 P age

11 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan East Complex North of A Street: The Port of Stockton s East Complex is divided into two separate drainage zones. These zones are roughly separated by A Street. The area north of A Street, for the most part, drains directly to the Stockton Deep Water Channel through a series of storm water collection basins, drains, piping, and outfalls. Outfalls D2, D4, D10, and D11 are shown on the figure below. A Street D11 D10 D4 D2 Storm Water Retention Basin East Complex South of A Street: The area south of A Street for the most part, drains to the Port of Stockton storm water retention basin through a series of storm water collection basins, culverts and ditches. Storm water is not discharged from the retention basin until a high level is reached. When a high level is reached, the Port pumps retention basin water to the adjacent San Joaquin River. Each of the three above-referenced drainage zones has unique characteristics and features that present drainage zone-specific benefits and potential problems concerning the volume, rate, and quality of storm water runoff. Therefore, this DSP specifies BMP requirements that are specific to each drainage zone and assist the Port in managing its storm water runoff in a safe and efficient manner. 3 P age

12 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 1.4 Consistency and Equality for the Port s Tenants The Port of Stockton desires to be fair and equitable with all of its tenants. Because each tenant is valued, the Port has established development standards that can be consistently applied to every tenant. This DSP is a way of establishing a consistent standard and process to be followed by every development and significant redevelopment. However, we also understand that it is extremely difficult, if not impossible; to have a one-size fits all standard. The Port has attempted to incorporate standards that will be useable by the majority of the developers, but the process also allows a certain customizing of standards in a manner that is fair and equitable to other Port tenants. The measures that are built into the process to allow flexibility include the following: When sizing a treatment control BMP, the State of California allows for volumebased or a flow-based sizing criteria to be used. However, the State also allows for equivalent criteria to be used. For example, a developer may propose a performance-based criterion. In other words, a BMP is proposed that is guaranteed to meet the water quality objectives and is so demonstrated by analytical testing. The Port is incorporating the CASQA control measures into this DSP by reference, which provides a wide variety of approved and State of California recognized treatment control BMPs that may be considered by the developer for incorporation into the design. Notwithstanding, should the developer want to use a BMP that is not specified in detail, as described in BMP standard POS-99 (refer to page 27 for more information), the developer may propose an alternative control measure that meets the volume, flow, or equivalent sizing criteria. Certain projects will fall under the DSP requirements, but the developer may argue that the DSP requirements are not logical and provide no real benefit to the Port s management of storm water and the water quality objectives. In those rare occasions, the developer has an appeal option. The developer may appeal the DSP requirements to the Environmental Manager who will determine if the appeal has merit. If the appeal has merit, the Port Environmental Manager will present the appeal in a public hearing format to the Port of Stockton Commissioners. During the hearing and comment period, other Port tenants and developers will have an opportunity to comment on the proposed deviation from the DSP. This public hearing will be a part of the CEQA process and will result in a ruling by the Commissioners. 4 P age

13 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 1.5 Water Quality Protection The Port of Stockton, as a member of this community, is very concerned and committed to protecting the water quality of our neighboring Delta and waterways. Not only is the Port committed to it as a responsible member of the community, but also the Port is committed to that goal by specific language in the storm water permit. The Port of Stockton s MS4 permit states the following: Discharges from storm sewers in a manner causing, or threatening to cause, a condition of pollution, contamination, or nuisance in the waters of the state are prohibited. Discharges from storm sewers that cause or contribute to the violation of applicable water quality standards are prohibited. Discharges from storm sewers containing pollutants that have not been reduced to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP) are prohibited. Because activities at the Port are predominantly industrial, this Order [permit] defines the MEP discharges standard to be equivalent to Best Available Technology Economically Achievable (BAT) and Best Conventional Technology Economically Achievable (BCT) discharge standards that are typically established for industrial storm water discharges. As mentioned in Section 1.2, this DSP is a mandated requirement of the Port s permit and must require BMPs of developers that meet the above-referenced water quality objectives. For the Port, the RWQCB has defined the MEP to equal BAT and BCT. Definitions Best Available Technology Economically Achievable (BAT) Technology-based standard established by the Clean Water Act (CWA) as the most appropriate means available on a national basis for controlling the direct discharge of toxic and nonconventional pollutants to navigable waters. BAT effluent limitations guidelines, in general, represent the best existing performance of treatment technologies that are economically achievable within an industrial point source category or subcategory. Best Conventional Pollutant Control Technology (BCT) Technology-based standard for the discharge from existing industrial point sources of conventional pollutants including BOD, TSS, fecal coliform, ph, oil and grease. The BCT is established in light of a two-part "cost reasonableness" test which compares the cost for an industry to reduce its pollutant discharge with the cost to a POTW for similar levels of reduction of a pollutant loading. The second test examines the cost-effectiveness of additional industrial treatment beyond BPT. EPA must find limits which are reasonable under both tests before establishing them as BCT. 5 P age

14 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 2 The Implementation Process Implementation of the Port s Development Standards involves the following five general steps: Determination of the applicability of the DSP to the developer / redeveloper; Notification of the proposed project to the Port of Stockton; Identification of the BMP requirements and sizing criteria and incorporation into the project design; Approval process of the proposed project design; and Confirmation of the BMP installation and on-going maintenance through an inspection program 2.1 Applicability All new development and qualifying significant redevelopment will be subject to at least the minimum BMPs identified in Section 3.1 of this DSP. However, depending upon the nature and location of the development, other BMPs may also apply to the development or redevelopment project. The following defines the applicability of this plan to new development and significant redevelopment New Development New development includes all new construction on a vacant property; new construction after a complete demolition; and new construction or a tenant improvement that results in a change-of-use. All new development will be required to implement minimum BMPs that are common industry-accepted design practices, which are not overly burdensome and do not involve large capital expenditures. These minimum BMPS are listed in Section 3.1 of this plan. In the Port s MS4 permit, certain types of developments have been identified by the State of California as Priority Categories. In addition to the minimum BMPs, developments falling under these categories are required to implement treatment controls that are identified in Section 3.2 for the drainage zone corresponding to the development and select and properly size one or more of the treatment controls listed in Section 3.3. The Port has identified certain industrial activities that also must implement the treatment controls for any new development. These industrial activities are identified in Section of this plan. As with the priority categories, new developments for any of the listed industrial activities must implement treatment controls that are identified in Section 3.2 for the drainage zone corresponding to the development, and select and properly size one or more of the treatment controls listed in Section P age

15 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Redevelopment The Port s development standards apply to all significant redevelopment projects falling under the identified Priority Categories listed in Section of this plan and to the industrial activities identified in Section of this plan. Significant redevelopment is defined by the following: Significant Redevelopment is defined as the creation or addition of at least 5,000 sq. ft. of impervious surfaces on an already developed site. It includes, but is not limited to: expansion of a building footprint; replacement of a structure; replacement of an impervious surface; and land-disturbing activities related to structural or impervious surfaces. Significant redevelopment does not include replacement of impervious surfaces that is a part of routine maintenance, such as the repair and/or replacement of an asphalt parking lot. 2.2 Project Notification Requirements The Port of Stockton s tenant lease agreement, the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and the Port s MS4 permit all require that the Port be notified prior to commencement of any development or redevelopment. All proposed projects, regardless of origin, require the completion and submittal to the Environmental Department of a Port Project Notification Form (Appendix A). After reviewing the Project Notification Form, the Environmental Department may also require the developer to submit a CEQA Questionnaire (Appendix B) and a Construction Management Fact Sheet (Appendix C). Port of Stockton Tenant Lease Agreement New Improvements: Tenant may not construct or otherwise make new improvements on any part or all of the Premises, nor demolish, remove, replace, alter, relocate, reconstruct or add to any existing improvements in whole or in part, nor modify or change the contour or grade, or both, of the land, without the prior written consent of the Port. 7 P age

16 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan CEQA Questionnaire In the event that the project is complex enough and poses potential environmental impacts, prior to commencing any new development project or significant redevelopment project, the developer/tenant must complete a CEQA Questionnaire form and submit it to the Port of Stockton Environmental Department. The form is included in Appendix B of this plan and is available from the Port of Stockton Environmental Department. For More Information or to Submit the Questionnaire Contact Rita Koehnen Environmental Coordinator Port of Stockton P.O. Box 2089 Stockton, CA rkoehnen@stocktonport.com (209) Once the CEQA Questionnaire is submitted, it will begin the CEQA review process described in Section of this plan. Development work cannot begin until the CEQA process is complete and the Port has granted approval Port of Stockton Construction Management Fact Sheet As specified in the Port s Storm Water Management Plan and required by the MS4 permit, the Port of Stockton has implemented a construction management program to control the storm water runoff from construction areas one acre or greater. Any entity performing construction that is exposed to storm water on the Port property is required to complete and submit to the Environmental Department a Construction Management Fact Sheet regardless of the size or extent of the construction. Soil disturbing activity Includes clearing, grading, disturbances to the ground such as stockpiling, or excavation. Construction activity does not include routine maintenance to maintain original line and grade, hydraulic capacity, or original purpose of the facility, nor does it include emergency construction activities required to protect public health and safety. A copy of the Construction Management Fact Sheet is included in Appendix C of this plan. 8 P age

17 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 2.3 Project Design Criteria Every new development and significant redevelopment is required to incorporate into the final design the applicable standards listed below prior to completing the approval process described in Section 2.4 of this plan. These standards include the minimum BMPs, drainage zone-specific BMPs, and treatment control measures. The standards also include sizing criteria for treatment control measures and requirements for groundwater and downstream erosion protection Minimum BMPs that Apply to All New Development and Redevelopment The Port is requiring that minimum BMPs be required of all new development and significant redevelopment projects. All of the BMPs must be incorporated into the development / redevelopment design as they may be applicable to the proposed project. Refer to Section 3.1 for a list and brief description of the minimum BMPs. For Additional BMP Detail Refer to the Following Reference: CASQA Storm Water BMP Development & Redevelopment Handbook Minimum BMPs that Apply to Applicable New Development and Redevelopment Occurring in Specific Drainage Zones at the Port of Stockton As described in Section 1.3 of this plan, the Port has three distinct drainage zones. Each of these zones has unique drainage characteristics and challenges. In order to protect water quality and to address concerns with storm water runoff management of each of these zones, the Port is specifying BMPs specific to each drainage zone for applicable new development and significant redevelopment. Applicable new development includes development of any of the State-specified Priority Categories and the Port of Stockton-specified industrial activities referenced in Section The required BMPs are listed and described in Section 3.2 of this plan. The following is the rationale for the Port s BMP selection for these drainage zones. 9 P age

18 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan West Complex The West Complex is unique from the East Complex in the type of tenants and activities, the amount of natural / undeveloped areas, and the way that storm water runoff is managed. The tenants and activities at the West Complex tend to be more commercial and light industrial in nature. It does not have nearly the material storage or toxic chemicals that are present at the East Complex. The development of the West Complex is significantly less dense than that of the East Complex. There are large areas of natural vegetation and undeveloped land throughout the West Complex. Agricultural fields are located on the south side of the complex and the area to the west and southwest is primarily undeveloped land covered with natural vegetation. Storm water runoff is managed predominantly by open culverts and ditches. Natural vegetation and/or cobblestones line most of these waterways. Some of the culverts are continuously filled with water from groundwater. All of the culverts eventually join and culminate at a pumping station located on the west side of the Rough and Ready Island. An automated lift station pumps water from this point to the adjacent Burns Cutoff. The mitigation measures identified in the Port s Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the West Complex mandates all new development to incorporate measures to maintain runoff during peak conditions to pre-construction levels. In addition, the EIR requires all new development to make drainage improvements so that runoff does not exceed the capacity of on-site drainage systems and peak storm water discharge rates are maintained to pre-project levels. The EIR and the Port s MS4 permit encourage that Low Impact Development (LID) concepts be incorporated into the project design to accomplish these hydrological requirements East Complex North of A Street The East Complex north of A Street is the only area at the Port of Stockton that discharges directly to the receiving water. The types of businesses in this area are predominately heavy industrial with significant storage of materials and chemicals that could threaten storm water quality. The area is mostly impervious and much of it drains to the receiving water via storm water drain inlets, underground piping, and outfalls. Once liquids have entered the storm water sewer system, the Port has little ability to prevent their discharge to the receiving water. Historic storm water challenges in the East Complex include soil erosion and sedimentation; spills of significant materials and chemicals; track out of significant materials and chemicals onto roadways; wind erosion of outdoor storage piles; and the limitations of the storm water conveyance system to be able to grab samples representative of specific drainage areas. Therefore, the BMPs listed in Section are designed to assist the Port in addressing these issues. 10 P age

19 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan East Complex South of A Street The East Complex south of A Street, for the most part, drains to the large storm water retention basin located on the southwest side of the East Complex. The retention basin has proven to be a very effective BMP for the Port and the tenants in this area. It allows solids and pollutants to settle or dissipate and minimizes the amount of water discharged to the receiving water. During some years having low rainfall, no discharge is needed. Storm water management challenges in this area include flooding; sedimentation and soil erosion; spills of significant materials and chemicals; illicit discharges; and track out of mud onto the roadways. Therefore, the BMPs listed in Section are designed to assist the Port in addressing these issues Identification of Applicable New Development Projects and the Associated Pollutants of Concern The State of California and the Port of Stockton have identified categories of new development that require properly selected and sized treatment control measures. (Section addresses the sizing criteria.) BMPs must also be selected based on the pollutants of concern associated with new development. This section lists the types of developments and activities that have been identified by the State of California and the Port that require treatment control, and describes the associated pollutants of concern. 11 P age

21 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Port of Stockton Specified Activities The Port s MS4 permit states, Because activities at the Port are predominately industrial, this Order [the permit] defines the MEP discharge standard to be equivalent to BAT and BCT discharge standards that are typically established for industrial storm water discharges. The permit also states that DSP shall consider pollutants of concern or activities of concern in identifying appropriate BMPs for new development. Therefore, the Port has identified industrial activities that are common to the business at the Port and have identified pollutants of concern for each of the listed activities.

22 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Table shows pollutants of concern that may be associated with each of the corresponding industrial activities. However, if it can be demonstrated that one or more of the identified pollutants of concern is not applicable to the proposed development, the Port will only require BMPs for those pollutants of concern that are applicable to the project Numeric Sizing Criteria for Treatment Control Measures The MS4 permit specifies sizing criteria for treatment control measures. The permit states that the developer may size the proposed BMP on a volume determination to capture 80% or more of the volume recommended in the CSWBMP Handbook, or as a flow rate determination based on the 85th percentile of the recorded hourly rainfall intensity multiplied by a factor of 2. The developer may also select an equivalent sizing criterion, such as a performance-based standard, to achieve the same reduction in pollutant loads that will meet the water quality objectives. For the greater Stockton area, dependent upon the runoff coefficient (% of water that flows offsite), the Storm Water Quality Design Volume (SQDV) is approximately 0.4 to 0.8 inches of rain multiplied by the area of the facility to yield a total volume. The Storm Water Quality Design Flow (SQDF) criterion is approximately 0.10 inches/hour, which is multiplied by 2 to yield a total of 0.2 inches/hour. For consistency, the Port of Stockton will adopt what the City of Stockton and other San Joaquin County cities have specified in their development standards plan; a SQDF of 0.2 inches/hour and a SQDV calculated by a rainfall storage figure ranging from 0.1 to 0.6 inches (depending upon the % imperviousness) multiplied by the area. The developer is to utilize the calculation worksheet contained in Appendix D. The Port will use the following reference documents to review and approve sizing of BMPs for proposed developments.

23 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Infiltration and Groundwater Protection Measures Developers that propose BMPs, which are designed primarily as infiltration devices (for example, a retention basin or infiltration trench), will be required to do the following: Demonstrate how potential pollutants that may infiltrate into the soil and groundwater will be kept from being discharged to the infiltration BMP; and Propose and commit to a monitoring program to periodically verify that pollutants in the surface water are not impacting the soil and groundwater Downstream Erosion and Protection Measures Downstream erosion (of the receiving water) does not apply to the West Complex or the East Complex South of A Street, for the most part, since these areas drain to a retention area where the releases to the receiving water are controlled. The East Complex North of A has more potential for downstream erosion than the other two areas. But, since this area is already well developed, additional developments or redevelopments would not significantly increase the runoff to the receiving water and cause greater erosion potential than already exists. In fact, the development standards proposed in this DSP should actually help to reduce the risk of downstream erosion by minimizing peak flows and dissipating the runoff energy Low Impact Development (LID) The Port of Stockton is committed to the design concept of Low Impact Development (LID). Certain aspects of this Development Standards Plan address and mandate LID. Mandatory minimum BMP SD-11 requires that all roof drains be directed to a permeable area or an infiltration trench to capture runoff from the first 0.75 inches of rain of each storm event. All of the regional BMPs specified in Section of this DSP for projects in the West Complex require the incorporation of LID concepts into the facility design. Applicable development and redevelopment are also encouraged to select one of the following LID treatment control BMPs: Vegetated buffer strips (TC-31); Vegetated swales (TC-30); Extended detention basins (TC-22); Wet ponds (TC-20); Constructed wetlands (TC-20 & MP-20); Detention basin / sand filter (TC-40); Porous pavement detention (TC-40 & SD-20); Porous landscape detention (TC-32 & TC-40); Infiltration basins (TC-11); Infiltration trenches (TC-10); and Retention / irrigation (TC-12). 15 P age

24 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan The Port recommends that all developers consider incorporating the following LID design measures into their development plans: For more information on Low Impact Development go to / Use of large spreading trees, which provide energy dissipation and peak flow reduction for storm events; Preservation of natural areas for storm water infiltration; Design landscape with bioretention cells that collect and absorb storm water from impervious areas; Use of permeable pavers or paving material for landscaping, pathways, and low traffic areas; Install cisterns and vector-proof rain barrels for the collection and reuse of storm water; Grade parking lots to drain to adjacent landscaped areas that have bioretention cells; and To the extent possible, route surface flows along a grassy swale or other permeable surface, rather than an impervious surface. 2.4 Approval Process The Port of Stockton has established a four-step process to review and approve site-specific Development Standards Plans. Figure 2.4 summarizes the process. 16 P age

Port reviews the Developer s site-specific DSP Port reviews submitted construction drawings, DSP worksheet, signed maintenance agreement, control measure selection criteria, and sizing calculations Port verifies that all CEQA / EIR mitigation measures have been incorporated into the project design. Step 4 Approval Phase Comments requiring changes by the Developer from any of the reviewing Port Departments will be returned to the Developer for modification. Port Environmental will issue a permit to construct. Port Environmental will send the Developer s Maintenance Agreement to the Properties Department for inclusion in the lease. Port Environmental will inspect the project during and after construction; and will sign-off on the Developer s permit when all permit conditions have been met. 17 P age

26 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Project Notification Development and redevelopment projects at the Port of Stockton may originate from a variety of sources including a new tenant from the Properties Department; an infrastructure or Port-owned project from the Port Operations, Maintenance, or Police Departments; or a tenant improvement project from an existing tenant. All proposed projects, regardless of origin, require the completion and submittal to the Environmental Department of a Port Project Notification Form (Appendix A). After reviewing the Project Notification Form, the Environmental Department may also require the developer to submit a CEQA Questionnaire (Appendix B) and a Construction Management Fact Sheet (Appendix C). The Port will enter the proposed project in its DSP database Project Design Phase The Port Environmental Department will provide the project proponent with a copy of the Development Standards Plan and will consult with the developer on the hydrology, low impact development (LID), and treatment control requirements for that project. The CEQA process begins with the consultation and questionnaire / project notification discussed in Section of this plan. The Environmental Department will review the completed questionnaire and determine whether or not the project is subject to the CEQA requirements. If the project is subject to those requirements, the Port will inform the project proponent of the applicable requirements, which may include an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), a negative declaration, or a negative declaration with mitigation measures. For projects subject to the CEQA requirements, public notification and a public hearing will be required. Mitigation measures identified as part of the CEQA process will include, at a minimum, the applicable BMPs and control measures identified in this plan. However, depending upon the specifics of a project, additional mitigation measures may be required to satisfy the CEQA requirements Submittal and Plan Review Phase Project proponents are required to provide six sets of their DSP submittals for reviews to be performed by the Port Environmental, Properties, Maintenance, and Police Departments. Incomplete submittals will not be accepted. To be deemed complete, DSP submittals must contain the following items: Provide a written site-specific Development Standards Plan (a template is provided in Appendix D. Provide construction drawings that identify and show all required treatment controls and best management practices. (Identify and show on the drawings the pre- and post-development hydraulics including drainage area, hydraulic gradient, infiltration rate, runoff coefficient, impervious areas, and peak flow rate. Show the existing and proposed drainage systems on 18 P age

27 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan drawings including all drains, piping, culverts, retention areas, and outfalls. Drawings are to be certified and stamped by a State of California registered Civil Professional Engineer.) Provide assumptions and calculations used for sizing each proposed treatment control practice. Calculations are to be certified and stamped by a State of California registered Civil Professional Engineer. Provide a written BMP maintenance program and a signed maintenance agreement form (Appendix E) Approval Phase Comments from any of the reviewing Departments that require design changes will be returned to the project proponent and a revised submittal will be required prior to the issuance of a Permit to Construct. Once all components of the submittal are found to be acceptable, the Environmental Department will issue a Permit to Construct to the project proponent authorizing the commencement of the project. (However, it is important to note that permits may still be required of the City of Stockton, Central Valley Air Pollution Control District, and other State and local agencies. It is the developer s responsibility to identify and procure all permitting requirements by other agencies.) The Port Environmental Department will provide a copy of the signed DSP Maintenance Agreement to the Properties Department for inclusion into the lease for the subject property. 2.5 Inspection Process The Port of Stockton will confirm that the proposed BMPs and control measures are implemented by performing the following inspections Prior to Construction At its discretion, the Port may elect to perform a pre-construction inspection and site assessment. Especially in cases were toxic chemicals will be stored or used on site or when an infiltration control measure is proposed (i.e. Section 2.3.5); the Port may require that a pre-tenant occupation site assessment be performed. Soil samples and, in some cases, groundwater samples will be collected to establish a baseline for constituents of concern prior to the occupation by the tenant. This can also protect the tenant from pre-existing conditions. When a tenant decides to vacate a lease, another similar site assessment will be performed and compared to the original assessment to determine if there was any impact to the soil and groundwater from the tenant s activities During Construction As described in the Port s Storm Water Management Plan, the Port will inspect all construction sites for compliance with its SWPPP and tenant agreements at least once every two weeks during the wet season (October April), and once a month during the dry season (May September), until construction is terminated. The inspection of the construction activities will be performed to confirm that adequate 19 P age

28 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan construction BMPs are in place and that runoff from the construction site meets the Port s water quality objectives. The construction inspector will also verify that the DSP-required control measures are being installed to specification Post Construction Once construction is complete, the Port will perform a Final inspection to assure that the BMPs and treatment control measures were installed to the approved specification and that they are functioning properly During Normal Operations Annually, the Environmental Department will inspect the facility to assure that the BMPs and treatment control measures are in use and are being properly maintained. The facility will be notified of any deficiencies and a time schedule will be set to correct any problems. 20 P age

29 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan 3 Approved BMPs All new development projects at the Port are required to have incorporated certain minimum BMPs as described below. Other BMPs specific to the drainage-zone and treatment control measures are required for applicable new development (as defined in Section 2.1.1) and for significant redevelopment (as defined in Section 2.1.2). These drainage zone specific BMPs and treatment control measures are described below. The Port has decided to incorporate the BMPs and treatment control measures identified in the California Stormwater Quality Association Stormwater Best Management Practice Handbook for New Development and Redevelopment (CASQA BMP Handbook). The following sections identify and briefly describe the recommended BMPs. Also, for ease of reference, listed next to each BMP is the corresponding CASQA code. For additional design and sizing information refer to the following reference materials: Reference Sources for BMP Design and Sizing: California Stormwater Quality Association Stormwater Best Management Practice Handbook New Development and Redevelopment Urban Runoff Quality Management, WEF Manual of Practice No. 23 / ASCE Manual of Practice No. 87, (1998) Mandatory Minimum BMPs The following is a listing and brief description of the minimum BMPs that apply to all new development, where applicable Storm Drain Message and Signage (SD-13) All storm sewer system drain inlets must be clearly labeled to indicate that only storm water is allowed and that the drain flows to the Delta. Labels are provided by the Port of Stockton as shown below. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD Roof Drain Design (SD-11) All roof drains are to be directed to a permeable area, an infiltration trench, or an alternative system approved by the Port Environmental Department so that runoff from a 24-hour storm event producing precipitation equal to or less than 0.75 inches will not enter the Port s municipal storm water sewer system. The capture and reuse of the water for same initial flow volume is also an acceptable BMP. Refer to CASQA Development BMP Handbook SD P age

30 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Outdoor Material Storage Area Design (SD-34) Materials stored outside must be stored in such a way as to prevent storm water from coming in contact with materials that may contaminate storm water or to prevent contaminated storm water from discharging from the site without treatment. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD Outdoor Trash Storage Area Design (SD-32) All trash enclosures are to be on impervious surfaces, surrounded by a screen or a wall to prevent windblown trash and debris, and covered with a rain-proof structure that meets building fire code and must be approved by the local fire department. Trash containers / bins must not leak and be covered. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD Outdoor Loading / Unloading Dock Area Design (SD-31) Floor surfaces are to be constructed with materials that are compatible to those being loaded / unloaded. The loading / unloading dock must have a covering that extends at least 3 feet beyond the loading dock, or be equipped with a seal or door skirt used to cover all material transfers between the trailer and the building. The grade or berming must prevent run-on from surrounding areas, while downspouts and roof drains must be directed away from the loading areas. Direct connections into a storm drain from the loading dock are prohibited. Storm water may only be discharged from the loading dock via a manually controlled system after the water quality has been found to not compromise the Port s water quality objectives or after it has been treated. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD Outdoor Repair / Maintenance Bay Design (SD-31 and SD-35) Surfaces of equipment (vehicles, machinery, or other equipment) maintenance / repair areas are to be constructed with Portland cement concrete. Cover or berm areas where equipment with fluids are stored. Cover or enclose all equipment maintenance / repair areas. Grade the area to drain to a dead-end sump for collection of all wash water, leaks, and spills. Direct connections of the maintenance / repair areas to the storm drain are prohibited. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD-31 and SD Outdoor Vehicle / Equipment / Accessory Washing Area Design (SD-33) The wash pad is to be constructed on Portland cement concrete. The entire wash area must be covered. The grade or berming must prevent run-on from surrounding areas and downspouts and roof drains must be directed away from the wash area. Wash water is prohibited to enter the storm sewer system. If the wash water is to be discharged to the sanitary sewer system, the City of Stockton Municipal Utilities District must be contacted. A permit and pretreatment may be required prior to discharging to the sanitary sewer. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD P age

31 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Fueling Area Design (SD-30) The fuel dispensing area must be paved with Portland cement concrete and extend 6.5 feet from the corner of each fuel dispenser or the length at which the hose and nozzle assembly may be operated plus 1 foot. The fuel dispensing area must have a 2% to 4% slope to prevent ponding and must be separated from the rest of the site by a grade break or berming. The fuel dispensing area must be covered if the area is not contained. The covering must be at least equal in area to the Portland concrete paved area, as described above. If the fuel dispensing area is not covered, the fueling island must be large enough to sufficiently accommodate the largest vehicle or equipment and must drain storm water, wash downs, leaks, and spills to a dead-end sump. Water that accumulates in the dead-end sump may not be discharged to a storm drain or an infiltration area or structure. Refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD Spill Control and Response Measures (POS-01) All new development and significant redevelopment must have incorporated into its design a location for the storage of spill response equipment for materials stored or used at that facility and, at that storage location, post information on how to respond to a spill. In addition, projects must also include design measures to allow for the physical control of spills of stored and handled materials to prevent them from discharging to the receiving water through the Port s storm water sewer system. 3.2 Drainage Zone Specific BMPs The following is a listing and brief description of the BMPs required of all applicable new development in specific drainage zones of the Port West Complex All of the following BMPs apply to new development and significant redevelopment in the West Complex: Conserve Natural Areas (SD-10) In order to maintain the West Complexes ability to bio-filter the storm water runoff, to the extent possible, the natural areas of the West Complex should be incorporated into the design of the project. Concentrate or cluster development on the least-sensitive portions of the site, while leaving the rest of the land in a natural or undisturbed state. Limit clearing and grading of native vegetation at the site. Protect natural or vegetated drainage culverts and ditches. Promote natural vegetation by using parking lot islands and other landscaped areas. Preserve riparian areas and wetlands. For more information, refer to CASQA BMP Handbook SD P age

32 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Minimize Impervious Areas (SD-10, SD-20, and SD-21) In order to minimize the amount of storm water that is discharged from the West Complex, new developments are required to minimize, to the extent possible, the amount of impervious surface area. This may be accomplished by reducing the footprint of buildings and parking lots; minimizing the widths for roadways, sidewalks, and other paved areas; incorporating landscaping into the project design; use pervious pavement materials where appropriate, use grass-lined channels or surface swales to convey runoff instead of paved gutters. For more information, refer CASQA BMP Handbook SD-10, SD-20, and SD No Net Increase in Runoff Volume or Peak Rate (POS-02) The mitigation measures identified in the Port s Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the West Complex mandates all new development to incorporate measures to maintain runoff during peak conditions to pre-construction levels. In addition, the EIR requires all new development to make drainage improvements so that runoff does not exceed the capacity of on-site drainage systems and peak storm water discharge rates are maintained to pre-project levels. The EIR and the Port s MS4 permit encourage that Low Impact Development (LID) concepts be incorporated into the project design to accomplish these hydrological requirements. Therefore, all development projects on the West Complex must have control measures in place to assure that post-development storm water discharge volumes and peak flow rates do not exceed the pre-development values East Complex North of A Street All of the following BMPs apply to new development and significant redevelopment in the East Complex, north of A Street: Sample Box Installation (POS-03) In order to be able to test the storm water runoff from a tenant s facility, a sample box or sample boxes must be installed to allow for the collection of a sample from the final storm water discharge from the facility prior to mixing with discharges from other surrounding facilities. This will enable the tenant and the Port to assess the quality of storm water runoff from that facility and also monitor for non-storm water discharges. The sample box must be accessible at all times and have an access hatch that can be opened by one person without the use of equipment or tools. The access hatch must be sufficient to allow a visual observation and to lower storm water sample collection containers Stabilization of Surfaces (POS-04) Because this drainage zone discharges straight into the receiving water and the area has high traffic and use, all surfaces must be stabilized to prevent runoff containing excessive sediment, suspended solids, and/or turbidity caused by soil erosion or track out. Surfaces may be stabilized with asphalt, concrete, or a sufficient amount of washed crushed rock. 24 P age

33 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan East Complex South of A Street All of the following BMPs apply to new development and significant redevelopment in the East Complex, south of A Street: Track Out Control (POS-05) Since much of this area is not paved, there is a high potential for the track out of mud and sediment onto the area roadways. If a new development or significant redevelopment has unpaved areas that may be driven across by equipment or vehicles, all exits from those areas must have track out control measures that are effective and prevent mud and sediment from being carried out onto the paved roadway Open Drainage Culverts (POS-06) Open drainage culverts and ditches are to be constructed to prevent erosion. Sides of open ditches and culverts may be either grass-lined or covered with a sufficient amount of 1 or larger washed rock. Except in cases where structural stability is required, concrete lined or impervious culverts are not to be used. 3.3 Treatment Control Options for State of California Priority Categories and Port Specified Industries Applicable new developments and significant redevelopments must incorporate into their design a properly sized treatment control measure, or combination of control measures, that are selected to treat / remove the potential pollutants associated with the development. Sizing criteria is discussed in Section of this plan. A development-wide control measure may be used for developments where there are multiple types of land use as long as it addresses all of the pollutants of concern for each land usage and is adequately sized for the entire development. For sizing criteria, refer to the Site-Specific Development Standards Plan Template in Appendix D and to the CASQA BMP Handbook. The following is a listing and brief description of the approved treatment control measures Vegetated Buffer Strips (TC-31) Vegetated buffer strips, also called grass strips, are areas of uniformly graded vegetated surfaces that are designed to receive sheet flow from impervious surfaces. They reduce the velocity of the sheet flow and evenly distribute the runoff. The grass strips act as a biofilter to allow solids and other pollutants to settle out of the runoff. They must be adequately designed using flow-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Vegetated Swales (TC-30) Vegetated swales, also called grassy swales, are open vegetated swales with gradual sloping sides that by a slight downward gradient slowly convey storm water to the downstream point of discharge. Grassy swales will reduce the velocity of the storm water flow and act as a biofilter to allow solids and other pollutants to settle 25 P age

34 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan out of the runoff. They must be adequately designed using flow-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Extended Detention Basin (TC-22) Extended detention basins are shallow excavated depressions or areas built up with berming that act as a temporary holding for storm water. Extended detention basins typically allow a temporary storm water impoundment depth of one to three feet, have an outlet that allows a slow discharge of water to the discharge point, and are typically dry between storm events. The benefits of an extended detention basin include the settling of particulate matter, reduction of the peak storm water runoff volume for flood control and water quality enhancements, reduction of runoff velocity, and the promotion of biofiltering and conversion of pollutants. The extended detention basin must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Wet Pond (TC-20) A wet pond is similar in design to an extended detention basin with the exception that it is designed to hold water for a longer period of time. The concept of a wet pond is that incoming water from a storm event displaces the existing water from the previous storm event. Typically, water impoundment depths are deeper in the wet pond than in an extended detention basin. Like with the extended detention basin, the benefits of a wet pond include the settling of particulate matter in the storm water, reduction of the peak storm water runoff volume for flood control and water quality enhancements, reduction of runoff velocity, and the promotion of biofiltering and conversion of pollutants. The wet pond must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Constructed Wetland (TC-20 and MP-20) Very few projects at the Port will be able to use a constructed wetland treatment control due to restrictions in the size of the lot and not having a permanent water source. However, this treatment control BMP is included as an option because there are a few areas at the Port that would be able to accommodate and benefit from this type of treatment. This would include certain dredge placement sites and some of the southwest and west areas of the West Complex. It should be noted that a constructed wetland differs greatly from a natural wetland in how it is regulated. Storm water flows should not be allowed to discharge without treatment to a natural wetland. Natural wetlands can be incorporated into a constructed wetland but require State and Federal approval to do so. State and Federal approval are not required for a constructed wetland that does not integrate a natural wetland. The benefits of a constructed wetland include the allowing of settling of particulate matter in the storm water, reduction of the peak storm water runoff volume for flood control and water quality enhancements, reduction of runoff velocity, and the promotion of biofiltering, biological uptake, and conversion of pollutants. The constructed wetland must be adequately designed using volume- 26 P age

35 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC-20 and MP Detention Basin / Sand Filter (TC-40) A detention basin / sand filter is a detention basin that is separated into a fore bay and sand filter storage zone. The sand filter consists of a type of a French drain; perforated pipe placed in gravel and covered by at least 18 of sand. The water leaches through the sand and gravel pack and is discharged via the subsurface collection system. This allows for filtering of solids and particulates in the storm water. Oils and greases will also tend to be trapped in the detention basin. The detention basin / sand filter must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Porous Pavement Detention (TC-40 and SD-20) Similar in concept to the detention basin / sand filter is the porous pavement detention. The concept uses porous pavement blocks or permeable pavement that is laid on a sand bed on top of a French drain type collection system. The area is graded to allow approximately two inches of water to accumulate on the pavers / pavement. The water infiltrates through the pavers / pavement and sand and into the subsurface storm water collection system, which discharges the water to the facility s outfall. The porous pavement detention must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC-40 and SD Porous Landscape Detention (TC-32 and TC-40) Porous landscape detention function similarly to the porous pavement detention except that vegetation is used instead of pavers. The porous landscape detention must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC-32 and TC Infiltration Basin (TC-11) The infiltration basin (also called a retention basin) is different from the various types of detention basins discussed above in that they are designed to hold all of the incoming storm water flow and allow the water to infiltrate (percolate) into the ground. To be successful, these infiltration basins must be located were natural soils have high percolation rates. The benefits include allowing the facility to greatly reduce the number of discharges to surface waters (potentially to zero-discharge) and provide for groundwater recharge. The disadvantages include the possibility of contaminating groundwater, the large amount of area required, and their potential for clogging. The infiltration basin must be adequately designed using volumebased design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC P age

36 Port of Stockton Development Standards Plan Infiltration Trench (TC-10) The infiltration trench functions like a leach field for storm water. A trench filled with rock and/or sand temporarily receives the storm water and allows it to infiltrate into soils that have high permeability rates. A collection pipe may be installed to allow the water to be diverted in case of heavy flow or clogging. Usually, a vegetated strip surrounds the infiltration trench. In the right application with the proper soil conditions, the infiltration trench can eliminate discharges of storm water. The infiltration trench must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Media Filter (TC-40 and MP-40) The media filter is a constructed filter that uses sand and/or other media to filter storm water. It works similar to the sand filters discussed above, except that this design is typically contained in a constructed vault system. The three most common designs include the Austin Sand Filter System, the DC Underground Sand Filter, and the Delaware Sand Filter. There are also various proprietary systems marketed. Media filters must be adequately designed using volume-based design criteria. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC-40 and MP Retention / Irrigation (TC-12) The retention / irrigation control measure involves the retention of storm water runoff and the subsequent reuse of it as irrigation water on landscaping. For the right application, this may allow the facility to obtain zero discharge. To adequately size the retention basin, volume-based design criteria must be used. For design criteria details refer to CASQA BMP Handbook TC Alternative Control Measures and Proprietary Control Measures (POS- 99) The above-described treatment controls are recognized by the USEPA, State of California, and the Port of Stockton as effective control measures for industrial, commercial, and municipal applications. Therefore, the proper selection of any of the above-described control measures will facilitate the approval process. However, the Port also recognizes that these are not the only effective treatment controls available and may not be the best treatment control for a particular development. Therefore, the Port will allow for alternative proprietary and nonproprietary control measures to be proposed for use in the design. As with any treatment control measure, they must be properly sized following the sizing criteria described in Section of this plan. The Port reserves the right to accept or reject any proposed treatment control on the basis of an engineering review, questions concerning its effectiveness, potential to impact surface water or groundwater, land use of the facility or neighboring facilities, risk of treatment bypass or failure, and health or vector control issues. It is the developer s responsibility to demonstrate that the proposed treatment control is properly sized and will be effective to achieve Port s water quality goals. 28 P age

62 Section 5: Storm Water Development Standards Plan The Port of Stockton has State mandated requirements for the management of storm water runoff from new development and redevelopment. These requirements are described in the Port s Storm Water Development Standards Plan (DSP) and include storm water pollution mitigation measures that are required to be incorporated into the design of development or redevelopment projects. They are called post construction control measures, because they are the features of your project which will be left in place (after the silt fence and straw wattle have been removed) to reduce the quantity of storm water runoff and to improve the quality of the runoff that does occur. Significant Redevelopment is defined as the creation or addition of at least 5,000 sq. ft. of impervious surfaces on an already developed site. It includes, but is not limited to: expansion of a building footprint; replacement of a structure; replacement of an impervious surface; and land disturbing activities related to structural or impervious surfaces. Is my proposed project a new development or significant redevelopment of at least 5,000 sq. ft of impervious surface on a developed site? Yes Call the Port's Environmental Department for a copy of the DSP. No The Port has three different drainage zones. Each zone has additional development standards to protect water quality and to manage storm water. These zone specific standards must be met in addition to the minimum standards for all sites at the Port. Where is my project located? Authorization Project Owner/Operator or Authorized Agent Port Representative Company Title Date Date Questions? Call the Port of Stockton Environmental Dept. (209) CMFS Page 4 Rev. 12/06/2011
