Section 1: Introduction
This Stormwater Pollution Control Plan (SWPCP) was prepared to meet the requirements of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Permit 1200-Z industrial stormwater permit, effective August 1, 2017.
The Terminal 6 SWPCP applies to the Port of Portland's (Port) permitted area of Terminal 6 shown in Figure 2 and the discharges associated with industrial activities to both the Columbia Slough and the Columbia River. This SWPCP was written to address industrial activities and best management practice requirements applicable to the Port.
The Terminal 6 SWPCP was written to address industrial activities and best management practice requirements applicable to the Port of Portland (Port), tenants, operators, contractors and similar entities at Terminal 6. Each entity performing an industrial activity is responsible for stormwater compliance in portions of the site they control. If industrial activities are planned that are not addressed in this SWPCP appropriate changes will be made to the SWPCP consistent with the timelines identified in the 1200-Z permit or in a future permit renewal application to DEQ.
Stormwater at Terminal 6 primarily discharges to the Port's Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4). There is one drainage basin that discharges to the City of Portland's MS4The Port is a Co-permittee with the City of Portland on the NPDES MS4 Permit Number 101314 (MS4 Permit), issued in 2011. The MS4 Permit requires the Port to develop and implement a Stormwater Management Plan (SWMP). The primary component of the Port of Portland SWMP is a program of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to minimize pollutant discharge into surface waters to the maximum extent practicable.
The BMP components outlined in this SWPCP also meet the requirements of the Port's MS4 Permit with respect to Terminal 6. Although not required by the1200-Z permit, the MS4 Permit requires the Port to implement an illicit discharge detection and elimination program and a program to minimize pollutants related to pesticide and fertilizer activities for all Port facilities, including Terminal 6. These two additional MS4 Permit requirements are implemented as outlined by the Port's Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Procedure Manual and the Program Description for Pesticide and Fertilizer Use on Port Property.
The SWPCP will be reviewed periodically to ensure the elements of the plan are effective and that the plan is in compliance with the terms of the 1200-Z permit. Revisions to the SWPCP will be made as required to reflect changing conditions (see section 1.6). SWPCP revisions will be in accordance with Schedule A.8 of the 1200-Z permit. Revisions to the plan will be tracked using the Record of Changes Form provided in Appendix B.
A current copy of the SWPCP will be kept on site. A copy will be made available upon request to government agencies responsible for stormwater.

1.1 Purpose of Plan
This plan identifies potential sources of pollution that may affect the quality of stormwater discharges associated with the Port's Terminal 6 facility, evaluates the potential for stormwater contamination from these sources, and presents the management practices that will be used at the facility for reduction of pollutants in stormwater discharges. This SWPCP will accomplish pollution prevention by meeting three main objectives:
1. Identify the potential sources of pollution that affect the quality of stormwater discharges,
2. Describe the implementation of practices to reduce pollutants in stormwater discharges and
3. Address compliance terms and conditions of the 1200-Z permit issued by DEQ.
1.2 Plan Organization
The SWPCP has been designed to follow the requirements of the NPDES General Permit for Stormwater Discharges Associated with Industrial Activities issued by the State of Oregon and EPA. Specific requirements of the 1200-Z permit are presented in bold italics in the SWPCP and followed by the appropriate information necessary to address the requirements. The components of the 1200-Z permit and the corresponding sections of this SWPCP are listed in the accompanying SWPCP checklist.
1.3 Definitions
The following definitions are defined by the stormwater discharge permits issued by DEQ and EPA:
Corrective Action Plan means an addendum to the SWPCP developed in response to modification to the SWPCP or in response to a benchmark exceedance.
Best Management Practices (BMPs) are schedules of activities, prohibitions of practices, maintenance procedures, and other management practices designed to prevent or reduce the pollution of waters of the United States. BMPs also include treatment requirements, operating procedures, and practices to control facility site runoff, spillage or leaks, sludge or waste disposal, and/or drainage from raw material storage. (EPA)
CERCLA is the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act. It is commonly referred to as the Superfund Act. (EPA)
Clean Water Act (CWA) was formerly referred to as the Federal Water Pollution Control Act or Federal Water Pollution Control Act Amendments of 1972. (EPA)
EPCRA is the Emergency Planning Community Right to Know Act. (EPA)
Hazardous Materials as defined in The Code of Federal Regulations, 40 CFR 302 Designation, Reportable Quantities, and Notification.

Material Handling Activities include the storage, loading and unloading, and transportation or conveyance of raw material, intermediate product, finished product, byproduct, or waste product.
Non-stormwater Discharges are not permitted under the new 1200-Z permit except where specifically authorized. This permit does not authorize the discharge of process wastewaters, vehicle wash waters, cooling waters, or any other wastewaters associated with the facility. Other discharges must be addressed in a separate NPDES permit.
Non-Port Operators means any entity leasing property owned by the Port or any entity performing activities at Terminal 6 subject to the tariff or other leasing agreement and with an associated with the industrial activity that meets either of the following two criteria:
i. The entity has operational control over industrial activities, including the ability to modify those activities; or ii. The entity has day-to-day operational control of activities at a facility necessary to ensure compliance with the permit (e.g., the entity is authorized to direct workers at a facility to carry out activities required by the permit).
Point Source Discharge is a discharge from any discernible, confined, and discrete conveyance, including but not limited to, any pipe, ditch, channel, tunnel, or conduit.
Reportable Quantities are those quantities of hazardous substances listed in Table 117.3 of The Code of Federal Regulations, 40 CFR 117.
Significant Material includes, but is not limited to: raw materials; fuels; materials such as solvents, detergents, and plastic pellets; finished materials such as metallic products; raw materials used in food processing or production; hazardous substances designated under Section 101(14) of the Comprehensive Environmental Recovery, Cleanup, and Liability Act (CERCLA); any chemical the facility is required to report pursuant to Section 313 of Title III of Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA); fertilizers; pesticides; and waste products such as ashes, slag and sludge that have the potential to be released with stormwater discharges.
Significant Quantity is the volume, concentration, or mass of a pollutant in a stormwater discharge that can cause or threaten to cause pollution, contamination, or nuisance, adversely impact human health or the environment, and cause or contribute to a violation of any applicable water quality standards for the receiving water.
Stormwater is the runoff from a storm event, snow melt runoff, and/or surface runoff and drainage. It does not include infiltration and runoff from agricultural land.
Stormwater Associated with Industrial Activity is the discharge from any conveyance that is used for collecting and conveying stormwater directly pertaining to manufacturing, processing, or raw materials storage areas at an industrial plant. The term does not include discharges from facilities or activities excluded from the NPDES program. The term includes, but is not limited to, stormwater discharges from industrial plant yards; immediate access roads and rail lines used or traveled by carriers of raw materials, manufactured products, waste material, or by-products used or created by the facility; material handling sites; refuse sites; sites used for the application or disposal of process

waste waters (as defined at 40 CFR 401); sites used for the storage and maintenance of material handling equipment; sites used for residual treatment, storage, or disposal; shipping and receiving areas; manufacturing buildings; storage areas (including tank farms) for raw materials and intermediate and finished products; and areas where industrial activity has taken place in the past at which significant remaining materials are exposed to stormwater. The term also includes stormwater discharges from all areas listed in the previous sentence (except access roads) where material handling equipment or activities, raw materials, intermediate product, final products, waste materials, byproducts, or industrial machinery are exposed to stormwater. Material handling activities include the: storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw material, intermediate product, finished product, by-product, or waste product. The term excludes areas located on plant lands separate from the plant's industrial activities, such as office buildings and accompanying parking lots, as long as the drainage from the excluded areas is not mixed with stormwater drained from the above described areas. Industrial facilities (including industrial facilities that are Federally, State, or municipally owned or operated that meet the descriptions of the facilities listed in this paragraph) include those facilities designated under 40 CFR 122.26(a)(1)(v).
Toxic Concentration refers to lethality to aquatic life as measured by a significant difference in lethal concentration between the control and 100-percent effluent in an acute bioassay test.

2.1 Receiving Waters
Terminal 6 is located in an industrialized area adjacent to the Columbia River. The site topography is relatively flat. Paved areas at the site are engineered with slopes for drainage (Figure 2). Surface water from asphalt-paved areas is directed toward on-site catch basins located throughout the site. The facility drains via a series of catch basins and collection pipes that predominately flow to the Columbia River via three outfalls. A section of the southern portion of Terminal 6 drains to the Columbia Slough. There are two large areas that infiltrate through sand and gravel that do not have a discharge point. The impervious area, total acreage, and final discharge location is summarized for each drainage basin in Table 2.2 below.

2.2 Drainage Area Descriptions
There are six drainage basins Terminal 6 within the permit boundary. Drainage basins, I and J completely infiltrate through sand and gravel, there is no storm system in these drainage areas and therefore no discharge. Drainage basins K, L, and O discharge to the Columbia River. Drainage basin M discharges to the Columbia Slough. Below is a description of each drainage basin.
Basin I Basin I is approximately 48.2 acres with 25.9 acres of impervious surface. The remaining acreage consists primarily of rail tracks separated by gravel areas. Buildings are not present in this basin. This area, referred to as the Intermodal rail yard, infiltrates through gravel. No storm sewer system infrastructure exists in this basin.
Basin J Basin J is approximately 13.6 acres with 8.2 acres of impervious surface. Stormwater in this area infiltrates through the gravel and is not serviced by a storm sewer system. There are no buildings present in the basin.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 2-9

Basin K Basin K is approximately 20.4 acres with 20 acres of impervious surface. Block houses containing electrical equipment are in this basin. All stormwater drains towards on-site catch basins. Basin K is serviced by a stormwater piping system that discharges through a Port-owned outfall, designated Outfall K, to the Columbia River. The monitoring location 1 (001) is at the river outfall located in the northeast corner of the basin.
Basin L Basin L is approximately 60.3 acres with 57.2 acres of impervious surface. Basin L is served by a storm sewer system that discharges to the Columbia River through Outfall L, beneath the dock structure of Berth 604.The row of catch basin laterals closest to the dock's edge are treated by two oil water separators (OWS). One of the OWS treats the east lateral and the other treats the west lateral. After flowing through their respective OWS both laterals join together and flow through a Contech stormwater treatment vault located in the north-central area of the basin. Once the stormwater is treated it flows from the vault and discharges through Outfall L. The monitoring location is in a manhole upstream of Outfall L, sample point (002). This area contains the majority of the buildings on the site including the following:
· Administration building 7201 (wooden structure); · Transtainer building (metal structure) - maintenance area for reach stackers; · Former Gearlocker building/Top loader maintenance building 7151 (metal structure)
maintenance of reach stackers and crane spreader bars; · Crane maintenance shop 7209 (metal structure) ­various crane maintenance and
storage area for spare parts; · Waste receiving building 7199 (metal roof over concrete slab) - covered storage area for
solid wastes awaiting disposition; · Berth 605 dock office building 7101 three story wood structure; and · Several concrete block houses containing electrical equipment
In addition to the activities that take place inside buildings, the following activities take place outdoors:
· Yard hustler parking and fueling; · Transformer containment areas; · Employee auto parking near the administration building and the crane maintenance
shop; · Hazardous cargo storage in a designated area; · Container steam cleaning area (drains to the City's sanitary sewer system); · Equipment cleaning area (drains to the City's sanitary sewer system); · Indoor or under cover storage of solvents and oils necessary for vehicle maintenance
and site activities; and · Street sweeping solids and decant water storage in bins (drains to the City's sanitary
sewer system).

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 2-10

Drainage Basin L also contains a Hazardous Cargo Area. The hazardous cargo area is used to temporarily store any hazardous container tankers being imported to or exported from the Facility. The area is also used to temporarily store containers leaking fluids.
The area is divided into three distinct zones and has three stormwater shut-off valves, or stormwater sluice gates, to control any spills or leaks in each zone. The zones and shut-off gates are clearly marked with yellow paint to identify which gate to use in case of an emergency or spill. The gate operation is checked monthly by MFM plumbers. MFM security and environmental staff have been trained on how to operate the shut-off valves. All catch basins in this area are also clearly marked to indicate which sluice gate they direct flow.
Basin M Basin M is 15.1 acres with 11.9 acres of impervious surface. One industrial building is located within drainage basin M, the US Customs, Gear Locker and Warehouse building 7515, also known as the CDC. The CDC is approximately 200,000 square feet and consists primarily of warehouse space with offices located in the southwestern portion. The CDC building is used for storage of materials and general maintenance and repair of vehicles, reachstacker, equipment, and containers, including welding. The main secured entrance and gate house are located in the western portion of the drainage basin.
There is an exterior used oil Aboveground Storage Tanks (AST), equipped with an alarm system, located on the west side of the CDC building. A fueling area is also located west of the CDC building. Two ASTs are used to store fuel (12,000-gallon diesel capacity and 4,000-gallon gasoline capacity) and are located adjacent to the fuel area. The storm system serving the fuel island was tied into the City sanitary sewer in 2011 by Port Maintenance. Water flows from the fuel pad area through an OWS and then to the City's sanitary sewer. A valve exists downstream of the OWS that can be closed in the event of a spill to protect the sanitary sewer. A second valve is located on the lateral south of the sanitary catch basin which is just southwest of the fuel pad.
The areas adjacent to the CDC building are primarily developed with asphalt concrete for parking, concrete loading areas, and graveled areas along the northeastern and eastern portions. Vegetated areas are limited to landscaping along the main entrance road off North Marine Drive and the southwestern portion of the basin.
The basin topography generally slopes from northeast to the southwest. Paved areas are engineered with slopes for drainage (Figure 2). Surface water from impervious areas is directed toward on-site catch basins located throughout the site.
Drainage Basin M is serviced by a storm sewer system that discharges to the City's MS4, which also drains North Marine Drive. Stormwater discharges from drainage basin M to the Columbia Slough via a City-owned outfall, Outfall M. The monitoring point (sample point 003) is located on Port property upstream of the City's outfall in a manhole southwest of the CDC building.
Basin O Basin O is approximately 38.1 acres with 37 acres of impervious surface.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 2-11

Most buildings in the basin are wood and metal construction The Container Yard Gate building is constructed of wood and metal and the truck entrance canopy is composed of metal. There is also an outgoing metal OCR shed and the Berth 603 dock office.
Basin O is serviced by a stormwater piping system, which discharges through Outfall O, to the Columbia River adjacent to Berth 603. All stormwater drains towards on-site catch basins. There are four catch basins directly adjacent to the Berth 603 dock office that connect to an oilwater separator which treats the water prior to being discharged through Outfall O. Stormwater samples are collected at the outfall to the Columbia River (monitoring point 004).

2.3 Industrial Activities Conducted On-Site
The Port of Portland Terminal 6 facility is a marine terminal that maintains equipment used for moving bulk and containerized cargo containers between ships, barges, railcars and trailer trucks. The facility encompasses approximately 196 acres. Typical activities for Terminal 6 involve the interaction of commercial semi-trucks, on-site container transports (yard hustlers), and container lift vehicles (reach stackers), container cranes, container ships, and rail transports. Other equipment used for breakbulk cargoes include mobile cranes, forklifts, and mobile vehicle loading ramps. Additional facilities and activities include vehicle maintenance and fueling, administrative offices, and an electrical shop. Historically most of the site was used for container storage on pavement.
Terminal 6 has the capability to handle a variety of break bulk commodity (e.g. rail, steel plate, steel coil), autos and containerized materials. The amounts and types of materials can vary depending on markets and shipping needs. A list of potential cargoes is discussed in Section 2.2 below. Portions of Terminal 6 may be leased for other operations. If new cargoes or uses of the facility not covered in this current SWPCP occur, this SWPCP will be updated to reflect the new uses.
This SWPCP was written to include industrial activities by non-Port operators and to ensure that non-Port operators at Terminal 6 are responsible for stormwater compliance in portions of the site they control. If industrial activities are planned that are not addressed in this SWPCP appropriate changes will be made to the SWPCP consistent with the timelines identified in the 1200-Z permit or in a future permit renewal application to DEQ.
2.4 Significant Materials
Significant materials will be handled or stored at Terminal 6 North in a manner that minimizes exposure to stormwater. Most of the maintenance and shop activities occur within roofed buildings. Activities that could contribute pollutants to runoff occur in impervious areas related to vehicle access and fueling. A detailed description of these areas and activities is shown in Table 2-3 on the following page. Significant materials from historical activities are not known to exist on site.
Federal regulations (40 CFR Part 112) require that facilities with oil-containing Aboveground Storage Tanks (AST) greater than 55 gallons totaling or exceeding 1,320 gallons, or total Underground Storage Tanks (UST) with capacity exceeding 42,000 gallons, must prepare a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC). The Port maintains an SPCC plan for Terminal 6. The spill response section of the SPCC plan is included in section 4.
Multiple above ground storage tanks, mobile storage tanks and portable containers containing petroleum products are stored in designated areas throughout Terminal 6. A complete inventory of oil storage and use locations is listed in Table 2-3. Locations of storage areas are also shown in Figure 2.

2.5 Potential Pollutants
Outdoor activities include movement and temporary storage of break-bulk, bulk and containerized materials and fueling of container-moving equipment. All industrial activities that are exposed to stormwater at the site are located on impervious paved areas. Terminal 6 facility includes maintenance of equipment used for moving cargo. Maintenance of equipment occurs indoors when it is possible for the equipment to be moved indoors. However, some equipment such as the exterior areas on the container cranes are too large or stationary and it is not possible to perform maintenance indoors.
The exact nature of future business at Terminal 6 is currently unknown. Cargos may arrive on a short-term basis with very short notice of when vessels will arrive. The list of potential cargoes listed in Table 2-4 was developed to be able to have a permit in place that allows for the handling of these materials if and when the business may take place. It should be noted that the list of potential cargoes included in Table 2-4 are potential cargoes that could be handled at the facility and that only a very few of the cargoes listed will likely be handled at the facility. The cargos that are most likely to be handled are containers, steel slab, break bulk such as steel, lumber, transformers, and finished autos. Cargo will be handled with the equipment listed in Section 2.3 or moved offsite on railcars.
Chemical from anti-icing and deicing pavement activities have the potential to impact stormwater. When weather conditions warrant, Port maintenance may apply deicer to remove snow and ice. BMPs for managing stormwater runoff from deicing and anti-icing activities are listed in Appendix D.
2.6 Sector-Specific Source Identification
The 1200-Z permit includes sector-specific requirements, including identification of industrysector specific sources. The Port of Portland facility falls under industry sector Q ­ Water Transportation because its Primary Code is 4491. The following potential pollutant sources related to this sector were assessed:
Outdoor manufacturing or processing activities: No outdoor manufacturing or processing activities are currently conducted or anticipated at Terminal 6. However, if any such activities should occur in the future, this SWPCP will be amended to describe specific pollution prevention measures that will be taken to address specific manufacturing or processing activities.
Significant dust or particulate generating processes: No ship repair or painting activities that could generate dust or particulates are currently allowed or anticipated at Terminal 6. Handling and storage of fine bulk materials have the potential to generate dust. Typically, these materials will be handled in a manner to minimize dust generation will be stored inside warehouse buildings. Specific management plans will be created for each individual cargo handling operations that has the potential to create dust.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 2-21

Because land transportation and equipment maintenance take place at the Terminal 6 facility, the following Sector P ­ Land Transportation and Warehousing related potential sources were also evaluated:
Onsite waste storage or disposal: all maintenance-related wastes generated at the site are contained within holding tanks with secondary containment. Municipal refuse is held in covered dumpsters. Dunnage (typically wood spacers or straps used to secure cargo) may be held in open dumpsters pending recycling or disposal in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Liquid wastes generated during equipment maintenance are recycled or disposed of according to state and federal regulations. Solid wastes are disposed of at a permitted solid waste disposal facility. Per Port of Portland policy, no wastes are disposed of onsite.
Dirt/gravel parking areas for vehicles awaiting maintenance: Vehicles awaiting maintenance are staged inside the CDC building, adjacent warehouses or next to the maintenance building in the area shown on Figure 2. This area is paved so leaks can be detected.
Illicit plumbing connections between shop floor drains and the stormwater conveyance system: The Port of Portland has visually verified that all floor drains including warehouse drains and shop floor drains have been filled with concrete or otherwise plugged such that they do not flow to the storm sewer system.
Fueling area: Fueling may take place in three designated fueling areas located in drainage basin M on the west side of the CDC, and in two locations in the southern portion of drainage basin L, as shown on Figure 2. The CDC fueling area, including the fuel nozzle rack, drains through an oil/water separator and then to the City sanitary sewer system. In the event of a spill a valve located downstream of the oil/water separator can be closed, isolating the spill area. Spill kits are located in these areas. The Port of Portland requires staff to be present during vehicle fueling.

2.7 Sources with a Reasonable Pollution Potential
Rankings of none, low, moderate or high potential for pollutants to be present in significant quantities in the stormwater discharge were determined based on the following criteria:

 Presence of materials in significant quantities exposed to stormwater
 The potential of exposure through spills or leaks  Existing structural controls (e.g., berms, cover) and non-structural controls (e.g.,
housekeeping, materials management practices)
 Evidence of historical spills (e.g., stains, structural damage to pavement or catch basins)  Mobility of the materials
 The distance to the stormwater conveyance system (i.e., can the material be contained and cleaned up prior to entering the storm drain system?).

By using the flow chart, the following pollution potential classifications were determined:

None:

pollutant is not present in significant quantities; or significant quantities of pollutant are not exposed to stormwater, nor do they have the potential for exposure to stormwater through leaks or spills.

Low:

significant quantities of pollutant are only exposed to stormwater by leaks or spills, and structural controls are adequate to prevent contamination of stormwater.

Moderate: significant quantities of the materials are exposed to stormwater, and structural controls are adequate to prevent contamination of stormwater; or significant quantities of pollutant are only exposed to stormwater through leaks or spills, and structural controls are potentially ineffective in preventing contamination of the stormwater.

High:

significant quantities of the materials may be exposed to stormwater, and structural controls are potentially inadequate to prevent contamination of stormwater; this may include areas with evidence of historical spills.

Based on the pollution potential assessment, some of the bulk materials contain potential pollutants that have been determined to have a reasonable potential to be present in the stormwater discharge in significant amounts. Only areas with a moderate or high-risk potential were considered as having a reasonable potential of impacting the quality of the stormwater.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

2.8 Stormwater Monitoring Locations
DEQ requires the monitoring locations to be located such that samples and measurements are taken prior to the effluent joining other water bodies or waste streams. Samples must be taken at a monitoring point before the stormwater joins or is diluted by stormwater from a different drainage area of the facility or areas outside the facility.
The Terminal 6 facility has four drainage basins with outfalls. These basins encompass all potential industrial activities reasonably to occur at the facility. Stormwater samples will be collected at monitoring locations 001 and 002 003 and 004 (Figure 2).
Basin K Monitoring Point 001 The outfall for monitoring point 001 is the northeast corner of basin K and the Berth 606-yard a. If the outfall is inundated, due to high river flows, grab samples will be collected from the manhole immediately upstream of outfall K.
Basin L Monitoring Point 002 This manhole is located in the north-central portion of the facility and receives stormwater from the hazardous cargo area, the Transtainer, Gearlocker, Crane Maintenance, and Administration building areas, a portion of the container yard near Berths 604 and 605 and the parking areas prior to mixing with other runoff. Grab samples will be collected from stormwater flowing within the manhole. Samples collected at this monitoring station represent the runoff from Basin L prior to discharge to the Columbia River.
Basin M Monitoring Point 003 Sample point 003 is designated as a manhole located upstream of the City of Portland's storm sewer and outfall. The manhole is in the parking area for the CDC, just southwest of the building. This monitoring location receives stormwater from the CDC roof, parking lot and maintenance storage areas via catch basins and roof down spouts connected to the piped storm system. Grab samples will be analyzed for the Columbia Slough parameters.
Basin O Monitoring Point 004 The monitoring point is at the outfall located in the northwest corner of the Berth 603 storage yard. This outfall receives stormwater from the Container Yard Gate building, Entrance Canopy, and a portion of the container yard adjacent to Berth 603. In the event that the outfall is inundated, due to high river flows, grab samples will be collected from the manhole immediately upstream of the outfall.
2.9 Underground Injection Control Rules and Regulations
The Oregon Administrative Rules (OAR) 340-044-0050 regulate the discharge of waste, including stormwater discharges, into underground injection control (UIC) systems. The 1200-Z permit requires that all permittees comply with these regulations.
It is the Port's policy that no new UICs be created when there are other means of disposal available (i.e. stormwater system, sanitary system, off-site disposal). If a UIC is the only option, it must be approved in writing by the Port, and it shall be constructed, registered and operated in accordance with the UIC rules and regulations to protect groundwater. There are currently no known UICs at Terminal 6.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 2-25

Section 3: Site Controls
3.1 General
Implementation of site stormwater pollution controls will help reduce the quantity of pollutants in the stormwater runoff. Source controls are usually the most effective mechanisms for decreasing contamination and are typically less expensive than constructing end-of-pipe treatments.
Oregon is an EPA NPDES-authorized state with the authority to write general permits. DEQ has established benchmarks as a means of assessing pollution control effectiveness. Except for federal limits associated with certain industries, benchmarks are not effluent limits. The Port of Portland will follow the intent of the stormwater regulations by implementing appropriate stormwater controls to reduce pollutant concentrations. BMPs and other forms of stormwater controls are expected to be implemented even if the benchmarks are not exceeded.
3.2 Stormwater Best Management Practices
Stormwater management controls are often categorized as source controls that minimize exposure of pollutants to precipitation and runoff, and treatment to remove pollutants from stormwater. Both types of controls help reduce the amount of pollutants in the stormwater discharge.
Source controls help reduce the contact of stormwater with potential pollutants. The overall intent of the NPDES stormwater regulations is to improve the quality of stormwater discharges by eliminating or reducing the exposure of stormwater to potential contaminants. Examples of source controls include good housekeeping, improved material handling techniques, secondary containment, and covering of potential pollutant areas.
End-of-pipe controls can be either structural or non-structural. They are used to remove a pollutant after it has already entered the stormwater. Examples include oil/water separators, stormwater filter vaults, catch basins, and catch basin inserts.
The site controls required under the Schedule A, Technology Based Effluent Limits of the Permit are listed below:
3.2.1 Minimize Exposure
Minimize exposure of processing, and material storage areas, including loading and unloading, disposal, cleaning, maintenance and fixed fueling areas, to rain, snow, snowmelt and runoff.
· Locate materials and activities indoors ­Welding and vehicle maintenance is conducted indoors or if this is not possible due to equipment or vehicle size, these activities will be conducted outside in a designated berm and/or covered area to eliminate stormwater exposure. All areas are swept at the end of the work day.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-1

· Use grading, berm, or curbing - Berms, bunds or curbs provide secondary containment for materials stored in ASTs. The fueling area in drainage basin M is sloped inward to two separate catch basins, which drain to an oil water separator, emergency shut off valve then to the sanitary sewer.
· Store all hazardous substances within berms or other secondary containment devices ­ The drainage basin L hazardous cargo storage area is divided into three separate drainage zones. Each of these zones has sluice gates with shutoff valves that can be closed for system containment in the event of a leaking container, hazardous material fire, or other situation that could impact stormwater runoff. A designated berm area for potential leaking containers is installed in this area. Each catch basin is labeled with the associated sluice gate. All hazardous substances are stored indoors or within berms or other secondary containment devices to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater. Hazardous materials will be stored under cover and in secondary containment.
· Leak prone equipment and activities ­ Leak prone equipment and activities will be located indoors or in containment and diversion systems. Drip pans or absorbents will be used under or around leaking or leak-prone vehicles and equipment. Drain fluids from equipment and vehicles prior to on-site storage or disposal.
· Perform all cleaning operations indoors, under cover or in a berm area that prevents runoff and run-on and also captures overspray ­ Wash water in drainage basin L drains to a proper collection system such as a closed-loop system or sanitary sewer and not discharged to the stormwater drainage system unless the wash water is an authorized non-stormwater discharge
· Clean up spills or leaks promptly using absorbents or other effective methods to prevent discharge of pollutants and use spill/overflow protection equipment. ­ Follow the Terminal 6 spill response procedures for all spills and leaks. Spill kits are located in areas were spills are likely to occur.
· When weather conditions warrant, apply pavement deicer to remove snow and in accordance with the BMPs in Appendix D.
3.2.2 Oil and Grease
Employ oil/water separators, booms, skimmers or other methods to eliminate or minimize oil and grease contamination of stormwater discharges, where needed and as described below:
· Except for mobile fueling performed in the designated fueling area, petroleum products are stored and dispensed in the covered maintenance shop. Pressure/steam cleaning is performed over a cleaning pad that drains to an oil/water separator and then to the sanitary sewer. Shop floors are routinely cleaned to prevent drag-out from the shop floor. Mobile Equipment carry oil spill containment materials and all spills are promptly reported and cleaned up.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-2

· A portion of the discharges in drainage basin O flow through an oil water separator adjacent to berth 603 dock office before discharging to the Columbia River.
· In drainage basin M, stormwater in the fuel pad area flows through an oil water separator prior to discharging to the sanitary sewer.
3.2.3 Waste Chemicals and Material Disposal:
Recycle or properly dispose of wastes to eliminate or minimize oil and grease contamination of stormwater discharges. Cover all waste contained in bins or dumpsters where there is a potential for drainage of stormwater through the waste to prevent exposure of stormwater to these pollutants. Acceptable covers include, but are not limited to, storage of bins or dumpsters under roofed areas and use of permanent lids. Non-Port operators are responsible for managing waste and materials generated by their activities.
· Waste chemicals generated at Terminal 6 include used motor oils, hydraulic fluid, solvents, and paints. All hazardous waste chemicals are stored indoors or under cover and recycled or disposed of off-site by a licensed contractor. A variety of wastes, including spent oil absorbent pads, used batteries, used catch basin filters and catch basin cleanout debris, are stored inside the Waste Receiving building.
3.2.4 Erosion and Sediment Control:
Stabilize exposed areas and contain runoff using structural and non-structural controls to minimize erosion of soil at the site and sedimentation. Employ erosion control methods such as vegetating exposed areas, graveling or paving to minimize erosion of soil at the site. Employ sediment control methods such as detention facilities, vegetated filter strips, bioswales, flow velocity dissipation devices or other permanent erosion or sediment controls to minimize sediment loads in stormwater discharges. For activities that involve land disturbance, the permit registrant must contact the local municipality to determine if there are other applicable requirements related to stormwater control.
· Most of the site is paved to reduce erosion. Annual pavement sweeping is conducted at a minimum. Operational sweeping will vary based on the specific activity and cargo being handled.
· Landscaped areas are well vegetated and regularly maintained.
· All Port construction contractors are required to comply with the Port's DEQ-issued NPDES General Construction Stormwater Permit 1200-CA or the 1200-C permit. The Port implements construction specifications for "Required Environmental Practices for Construction" in order to minimize environmental risk at Port facilities. Contractors are required to follow the construction specifications pertaining to the Port's permit conditions. The Port prepares a project-specific erosion control plan and the contractor supplies supplemental information for the plan. The Port's engineering and environmental staff review the plans. In addition, all construction projects also follow the most current edition of the City of Portland's Erosion Control Manual. Tenant construction contractors must also comply with the various

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-3

stormwater regulations by obtaining their own 1200-C permits from DEQ and building permits from the City.
· All Port construction inspectors are trained annually on appropriate construction erosion and sediment control measures to assist in the enforcement of mandatory erosion control measures.
3.2.5 Debris Control: Employ screens, booms, settling ponds, or other methods to eliminate or minimize waste, garbage and floatable debris in stormwater discharges and ensure that this debris is not discharged to receiving waters.
· Employees are required to keep work areas clean and free of debris. The yard area is swept as needed.
· Lot sweeping is conducting during times wind is minimal. Use vacuum recovery lot sweeping equipment.
· Cover dumpsters and picked up on a routine basis.
· Filter fabric inserts are used for debris control and are replaced annually or as needed to ensure debris entering stormwater discharges from the Site are minimized.
3.2.6 Dust Generation and Vehicle Tracking: Minimize generation of dust and off-site tracking of raw, final or waste materials.
· High traffic areas of the yard are paved and regularly swept.
· Lot sweeping is conducting during times the wind is minimal. Use vacuum recovery lot sweeping equipment.
· Specific bmp will be developed and implemented as applicable to individual cargo handling activities that have the potential to generate dust.
3.2.7 Housekeeping: Regularly inspect, clean, maintain and repair all industrial equipment and systems, and materials handling and storage areas that are exposed to stormwater to avoid situations that may result in leaks, spills, and other releases of pollutants discharged to receiving waters. Clean, maintain and repair all control measures, including stormwater structures, catch basins, and treatment facilities to ensure effective operation and in a manner that prevents the discharge of pollution. Routinely clean all exposed areas that may contribute pollutants to stormwater using such measure as sweeping at regular intervals, litter pick-up, keeping materials orderly and

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-4

labeled, and prompt clean-up of spills and leaks, proper maintenance of vehicles and stowing materials in appropriate containers.
Areas that may contribute to pollutants to stormwater will be kept clean and free of debris. Proper routine maintenance is performed on transportation vehicles, thereby minimizing the potential leakage of automotive components and exposure of stormwater to pollutants. The following measures will be implemented:
· Incidental spills at the site will be cleaned up quickly.
· The asphalt parking area shall be cleaned on a routine basis to prevent debris buildup.
· Port staff will perform monthly inspections of outdoor areas at Terminal 6 including: Maintenance Facility and fuel island, washing areas and fuel storage areas, dock areas, and equipment storage areas. These areas are continually being monitored by Port staff, and every effort is made to keep all Port facilities clean.
· When conducting maintenance of buildings, structures or fixed cranes, workers must eliminate the potential for spent abrasives, paint chips, and overspray to discharge into receiving waters or the storm sewer systems. Contain all blasting and painting activities or use other measures to minimize the discharge of contaminants (e.g., hanging plastic barriers or tarpaulins during blasting or painting operations to contain debris). When necessary, regularly clean stormwater conveyances of deposits of abrasive blasting debris and paint chips.
· Store and plainly label all containerized materials (e.g., fuels, paints, solvents, waste oil, antifreeze, batteries) in a protected, secure location away from drains. Minimize the contamination of precipitation or surface runoff from the storage areas. Specify which materials are stored indoors. Use secondary containment and enclosure for materials stored outdoors. If abrasive blasting is performed, discuss the storage and disposal of spent abrasive materials generated at the facility.
3.2.8 Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance
Prevent contaminants from vehicle and equipment maintenance from entering the stormwater drainage system. The following measures will be implemented:
· No wash downs are allowed to clean the work areas. Rags or spill pads will be used for cleaning small spills and a damp mop will be used for general cleaning. Sorbent materials including kitty litter, sawdust, spill pads, and spill booms may be used for containing large spills. Disposal of clean up materials will be conducted appropriately.
· Drip pans will be placed underneath vehicles and equipment when performing maintenance such as removing parts, unscrewing filters, or unclipping hoses. Transfer of used fluids to the proper waste or recycling drums will be conducted

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-5

promptly. Open containers, including full drip pans, will not be left lying around on the site.
· Vehicles driven to the site for repair will be examined for leaks. Drip pans will be place under the vehicles to collect fluids for recycling or proper disposal.
· All engine and transmission fluids will be drained and collected from damaged equipment or wrecked vehicles brought on the site. If the equipment or vehicles were drained prior to arrival at the site, drip pans will be placed under them immediately to contain leakage since oils and other fluids may drip for several days. All fluids will be disposed or recycled appropriately.
· All batteries will be stored under cover in a designated area.
· Used materials such as degreasers, used oil, oil filters, antifreeze, cleaning solutions, automotive batteries, used rags, and hydraulic fluid will be stored indoors or undercover in secondary containment. These types of materials will be regularly recycled off-site by an approved vendor.
3.2.9 Break-Bulk and Bulk Source Control BMPs:
The contractor/operator will implement BMPs identified in this SWPCP during all work activities at Terminal 6 involving break-bulk or bulk products. Storm drains potentially impacted by the work will be protected, the area will be regularly cleaned, and waste materials disposed of properly. Catch basin inserts (filter media) will be deployed at any high-risk location within break-bulk or bulk storage areas. Warehouses and surrounding terminal areas will be thoroughly cleaned as soon as possible following completion of break-bulk or bulk products activities. Product dust will be swept up and disposed of safely, in accordance with applicable laws and BMPs. Routine visual inspections of catch basins by both the contractor and Port staff will be conducted and documented. Equipment will be maintained to control dust and spillage and the product will be protected from the elements (rain, wind, snow, etc.) where practical. The non-Port operator should also develop a plan that addresses additional BMPs to be implemented if the bulk activity is conducted during wet weather if the routine BMPs are inadequate to prevent pollutant discharges.
3.2.10 Spill Prevention and Response:
Minimize the potential for leaks, spills and other releases that may be exposed to stormwater and develop plans that include methods for spill prevention and clean-up and notification procedures. Non-Port operators are responsible for maintaining their own spill response plans and procedures. Coordination between Port and non-Port operators are shown in Figure 3.
· The Port of Portland has a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (SPCC) plan for the facility which is provided as an adjunct to this plan. The SPCC plan includes regular inspections of the double-wall fuel tank, transformers, hydraulic systems, and oil/fluids holding tanks. Spill containment and cleanup materials are kept near the potential sources. There are seven spill kits located throughout the site, see Figure 2 or the Spill Response Plan in section 4 for each location. Additional spill response equipment and materials will be brought on site by the stevedoring

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-6

companies responsible for cargo handling and are dependent upon the materials being transported.
· Spill response procedures and contact information are included in section 4.
· Containers are labeled (e.g., "Used Oil", "Spent Solvents", etc.) to encourage proper handling and facilitate rapid response if spills or leaks occur.
· Monthly visual observations of chemical storage and transfer areas check for the presence of minor leaks or spills and overall operational effectiveness as well as structural integrity.
3.2.11 Preventative Maintenance:
Regularly inspect, clean, maintain, and repair all industrial equipment and systems and materials handling and storage areas that are exposed to stormwater to avoid situations that may result in leaks, spills, and other releases of pollutants discharged to receiving waters. Clean, maintain and repair all control measures, including stormwater structures, catch basins, and treatment facilities to ensure effective operation and in a manner that prevents the discharge of pollution. The preventative maintenance schedule for site controls is listed in Table 3-1.
· Monthly preventative maintenance inspections of the stormwater system, secondary containment, chemical transfer and storage areas and spill response materials should be conducted by qualified representatives of the Port and reviewed by site management. Inspection forms will be kept by Environmental Operations at the Port's headquarters
· Catch basins ­ There are approximately 250 catch basins at Terminal 6; therefore, the condition of the catch basins in high risk industrial areas will be checked during monthly inspections. These inspections will include checking for the condition of grouting around the catch basin, misaligned covers, debris stuck in the cover, or any debris or other materials that may be covering the catch basin. Debris and other materials that may be blocking the catch basins will be cleared away before the next rainfall. All repairs and clearing of debris will be documented. Maintenance requests will be made to resolve unusual damage or problems.
Catch basins are scheduled to be cleaned annually and as requested. The structural condition of the catch basin is recorded, and any needed repairs are conducted.
Materials removed from catch basins are disposed of appropriately. Catch basin cleaning records and sample analysis results are recorded and kept on file by Environmental Operations in the Port's headquarters.
· Catch basin filters - The filters in the catch basins are inspected for oil saturation, correct installation, and absorbent material integrity and replaced as needed or annually.
· Oil water separators - The condition of the oil/water separator system and all its components are inspected monthly. If separators are not functioning efficiently, then maintenance (i.e., cleaning, pump out, etc.) is performed. Oil/water separator

maintenance will be documented and kept on file Environmental Operations at the Port's headquarters.

· Storm filter vaults ­ The drainage basin L stormwater vault is inspected monthly. Cartridges are replaced annually or as needed.

· Outside Storage Areas ­ Secondary containment areas, chemical transfer and storage areas, and spill response materials are inspected monthly. These inspections consist of inspecting the water within these areas for grease sheen or for any residue in the water and must occur while it is raining. In addition, daily (prior to use) inspections of equipment (e.g., forklifts, transportation equipment, etc.) are completed.

3.2.12 Employee Education:
The Port of Portland staff members undergo annual stormwater pollution prevention and spill control training. Training is typically performed in the fall or winter. This training is also provided to new employees. Non-Port operators are required to train their staff on best management practices listed in this SWPCP and spill response specific to their operations annually and within 30 days of hire.
3.2.13 Non-Stormwater Discharges:
Under the Port's MS4 permit (see section XII MS4 Permit Activities) the Port is required to have an illicit detection and elimination program for all non-stormwater discharges not authorized by one of the Port's NPDES permits. The Port will eliminate any nonstormwater discharges not authorized if detected during routine inspections or upon discovering evidence of a discharge. Employees are trained not to discharge any nonstormwater to the storm sewer system and report any non-stormwater discharges they

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-8

observe. Illicit detection and elimination procedures are included in Appendix C.
Any discharges not authorized by the Permit are investigated and eliminated. Condition 7 of the Permit Coverage and Exclusion from Coverage section of the permit include a list of authorized non-stormwater discharges. During monthly inspections, signs of nonstormwater discharges in the stormwater conveyance and collection systems are documented and procedures in Appendix C are followed.
3.2.14 Schedule E Industry sector specific requirements include:
3.2.14.1 E.Q.1.1 Additional Good Housekeeping Measures:
· E.Q.1.1.1 Pressure Washing Area Pressure washing is performed on a wash pad that collects and contains the discharges from the pressures washing area so that they are not co-mingled with stormwater discharges authorized by this permit. If warehouse floors or other storage areas are pressure washed, the wash water is captured using vacuum trucks.
· E.Q.1.1.2 Blasting and Painting Area There is no ship blasting or painting activities performed at the site. Any painting of small equipment is done inside of the Gearlocker maintenance building.
· E.Q.1.1.3 Material Storage Areas · All containerized materials (e.g., fuels, paints, solvents, waste oil, antifreeze,
batteries) are plainly labeled and stored in a protected, secure location away from drains (inside the Gearlocker except for the exterior Except for the doublewalled diesel fuel tank). This practice minimizes the contamination of precipitation or surface runoff from the storage areas. Materials stored indoors include oils, diesel fuel, lubricants, parts cleaners, and antifreeze/coolants. No abrasive blasting is performed at the facility. The Port has environmental policies, including requirements in lease agreements encourages the limitation of potentially hazardous materials onsite.
· E.Q.1.1.4 Engine Maintenance and Repair Areas · All vehicle maintenance is conducted indoors to minimize the contamination of
precipitation or surface runoff from all areas used for engine maintenance and repair.
· E.Q.1.1.5 Material Handling Areas The Port uses covered warehouses to temporarily store and handle most bulk materials. The maintenance shop is within a building and thus minimizes the contamination of precipitation or surface runoff from material handling operations and areas (e.g., fueling, paint and solvent mixing). There is no onsite disposal of process wastewater streams from vessels. Because of the size of the material handling equipment, it is not possible to cover the fueling area adjacent to the ASTs. However, fueling from the ASTs takes place on a containment pad that has spill and overflow protection. The fueling area drains flow through an oil water separator and connect to the sanitary sewer. Emergency closure valves

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

Page 3-9

are located on the sanitary lines one below the oil water separator and the other below the sanitary catch basin south of the fueling pad. Any mixing of paints and solvents is performed inside the CDC in a designated area.
3.2.14.2 E.Q.1.2 Employee Training
The Port of Portland employee training addresses the following activities: used oil and spent solvent management; fueling procedures; general good housekeeping practices; proper painting procedures; and used battery management. Spill and stormwater training for MFM staff is conducted annually. Any new employee who conducts duties related to the implementation of the SWPCP will be trained within 30 calendar days of being hired. Stormwater and spill training typically consist of:
 Introduction to SWPCP and Permit  Regulatory requirements  Stormwater protection and good housekeeping BMPs  Spill response goals  Responsibilities for spills  Spill kits and  Spill notification requirements.
Stormwater training. Attendance records are retained by the Environmental Operations staff at the Port of Portland Administrative Office and in the Port's online Learning Management System.
E.Q.1.3 Preventative Maintenance
As part of the Port of Portland Preventative maintenance programs, staff perform timely inspection and maintenance of stormwater management devices (e.g., cleaning oil and water separators and catch basins to ensure that solids will be intercepted and retained prior to entering the storm drainage system), as well as inspecting and testing facility equipment and systems to uncover conditions that could cause breakdowns or failures resulting in discharges of pollutants to surface waters.
Site controls will be selected for implementation based upon their effectiveness and cost. Where possible, source controls will be used. End-of-pipe controls may be used in situations where stormwater is required to be treated. Selection of controls is discussed in the following section.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland Terminal 6

4.1.8 Spill Cleanup Training
Appropriate Port personnel are trained in incidental spill cleanup procedures and how to use available Port cleanup equipment including absorbent mats, scoop shovels, brooms, and a highly absorbent sweeping compound. Port spill kits include 55-gallon drums to be used for receiving spilled materials. Personal protective equipment (respirators, safety goggles, boots, and gloves), first aid, and biohazard kits are maintained in the Maintenance Tool Room. Fire extinguishers and ventilation equipment are also available at the facility. Non-Port operators are responsible for training their staff and contractors on their spill plan and for providing spill cleanup equipment appropriate for their industrial activities at Terminal 6.
4.2 Monthly Inspections
Inspections will be conducted monthly at the locations identified in Section 4.2.2 and on Figure 2. In addition, the stormwater control structures will be inspected. the results of the inspections will be documented. Upon completion of the inspection, cleaning and repair activities should be conducted and documented as described in Section 4.4.
The Port's Environmental Operations will conduct monthly inspections of source areas and stormwater controls within the permitted areas of Terminal 6. The inspections will be documented on the SWPCP Monthly Inspection Form. Inspection forms will be kept on file in the Port of Portland Administration Office.
Non-Port operators are responsible for conducting monthly inspections of their leased areas and areas within their control in compliance with Schedule B of the 1200-Z permit. Inspections of source areas and site controls will be documented, kept onsite for at least three years and made available to the Port, DEQ or local municipality upon request.
Port Environmental Operations and/or Marine Facilities Maintenance staff will conduct inspections of catch basins, inlets and manholes within the non-leased 1200-Z permitted areas. Terminal 6 has approximately 250 catch basins, inlets or manholes within the 1200-Z permitted area. Many of these are located in areas that have very low probability for impacts to stormwater. The catch basins, manholes and inlets within the high-risk area (Materials Storage Area) will be inspected monthly. The inspections will be documented on the SWPCP Monthly Inspection Form. Inspection forms will be kept on file in the Port Administration Office.
Regular inspections are also conducted in accordance with the Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC) plan and as needed. If any drips or leaks are identified in the area, the Terminal 6 SPCC Reporting Procedure is implemented and the appropriate personnel at Terminal 6 or the appropriate regulatory agencies are notified in accordance with the SPCC Reporting Procedure.

The permit registrant must submit to DEQ the analytical laboratory results from the four sampling events.
1. Results from sampling events cannot be averaged. 2. Monitoring waivers may be allowed for individual parameters.
 If the exceedance(s) is attributed solely to the presence of the pollutant(s) in natural background and is not associated with industrial activities at the site, DEQ or Agent will consider these samples as being below the benchmark(s) or reference concentrations for impairment pollutant(s). Permit registrant must submit a Natural Background Waiver report to DEQ that describes the investigation and analysis to demonstrate that the exceedances are due to natural background conditions and includes any data collected by the permit registrant or others (including literature studies) that describe the levels of natural background pollutants in the discharge.
 If a facility is inactive and unstaffed and no industrial materials or activities are exposed to stormwater, the permit registrant is not required to conduct monitoring for the remainder of the permit term. (a) Permit registrant must provide documentation with the DMR indicating that the site is inactive and unstaffed, and that there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to precipitation, in accordance with the substantive requirements in 40 CFR 122.26(g)(4)(iii).
1. The statement must be signed and certified in accordance with Schedule F of the permit.
 The permit registrant must submit to DEQ or Agent a request to exercise the monitoring waiver based on the conditions above and include the documentation to support the request. If DEQ or Agent does not comment within 30 calendar days, the monitoring waiver is deemed approved.

Page 5-4

1. There is no reduction in monitoring allowed for: (a) Visual observations, unless the site is inactive or unstaffed and there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater and permit registrant meets requirements in Schedule B.4.a.i.3 of the permit.
(b) Monitoring for federal numeric effluent limit guidelines.
2. Revocation of Monitoring Waiver
(a) The permit registrant must reinstate the monitoring of stormwater discharge if:
 Prior monitoring efforts used to establish the monitoring waiver were improper or sampling results were incorrect;
 Changes to site conditions are likely to affect stormwater discharge characteristics;
 Additional monitoring occurs and the sampling results exceed benchmark(s), or
 For inactive or unstaffed sites, the facility becomes active and/or staffed or industrial materials or activities become exposed to stormwater
(b) DEQ will notify the permit registrant in writing if the monitoring waiver is revoked.
5.7 Monitoring Locations
Samples must be representative of the discharge. Unless approved in writing by DEQ or Agent, all samples must be taken at monitoring points specified in the SWPCP before the stormwater joins or is diluted by stormwater from a different drainage area of the facility or areas outside the facility; wastewater, or any other waste stream, body of water or substance unless:
 Otherwise approved in writing by DEQ; or
 On-site stormwater flows are combined to utilize a common treatment facility (for example, filter or settling pond). In this case, monitor the discharge from the treatment facility.
Each drainage basin discharging to the Columbia River or Columbia Slough in the Terminal 6 permitted area is sampled. Descriptions of each monitoring location is provided below.
Basin K Monitoring Point 001 The outfall for monitoring point 001 is the northeast corner of basin K and the Berth 606-yard a. In the event that the outfall is inundated, due to high river flows, grab samples will be collected from the manhole immediately upstream of outfall K.
Basin L Monitoring Point 002 This manhole is located in the north-central portion of the facility and receives stormwater from the hazardous cargo area, the Transtainer, Gearlocker, Crane Maintenance, and Administration building areas, a portion of the container yard near Berths 604 and 605 and the parking areas prior to mixing with other runoff. Grab samples will be collected from stormwater flowing within the manhole. Samples collected at this monitoring station represent the runoff from Basin L prior to discharge to the Columbia River.

Stormwater Pollution Control Plan, Port of Portland, Terminal 6

Page 5-5

Basin M Monitoring Point 003 Sample point 003 is designated as a manhole located upstream of the City of Portland's storm sewer and outfall. The manhole is in the parking area for the CDC, just southwest of the building. This monitoring location receives stormwater from the CDC roof, parking lot and maintenance storage areas via catch basins and roof down spouts connected to the piped storm system. Grab samples will be analyzed for the Columbia Slough parameters.
Basin O Monitoring Point 004 The monitoring point is at the outfall located in the northwest corner of the Berth 603 storage yard. This outfall receives stormwater from the Container Yard Gate building, Entrance Canopy, and a portion of the container yard adjacent to Berth 603. In the event that the outfall is inundated, due to high river flows, grab samples will be collected from the manhole immediately upstream of the outfall.
5.8 Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements
Detailed records must be maintained to provide quality assurance/quality control for a stormwater sampling program. Personnel from the Port of Portland Terminal 6 facility will use the forms provided in the monitoring plan to record the monitoring information. Components of the records management program include the following items:
 Analysis Request Forms  Chain-of-Custody Forms  Specific monitoring information (visual and grab sampling).
Records of monitoring information shall include:
· The date, exact place, time, and methods of sampling or measurements · The individual(s) who performed the sampling or measurements · The date(s) analyses were performed · The individual(s) who performed the analyses · The analytical techniques or method used · The results of the analyses.
The Field Data Sheets, Chain-of-Custody Forms, and the analytical results shall be maintained by the Environmental Operations department.
5.8.1 Reporting Requirements
A monitoring report must be submitted annually to DEQ. The monitoring report must be submitted by July 30. All monitoring data should be tabulated to permit easy review. In addition to the sampling data, a tabulated record of the visual observations is to be included. The monitoring information for the Port of Portland Terminal 6 facility shall be submitted to:

Dear Permit Registrant:

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has reissued the August 1, 2017, 1200-Z industrial stormwater general permit upon reconsideration. You will find a revised monitoring requirements table based on the settlement terms. This change does not impact monitoring waiver approvals or your Tier II evaluation year. The monitoring year still extends from July 1 to June 30, with two distinct sampling time frames: July 1 through December 31 and January 1 through June 30.

It is your responsibility to take all necessary steps to comply with conditions established in the permit to help protect Oregon's waterways. The October 2018 reissued permit and technical assistance materials are posted on DEQ's industrial stormwater website: https://www.oregon.gov/deq/wq/wqpermits/Pages/Stormwater-Industrial.aspx.

Included in this mailing is a summary of changes. Please print the permit from DEQ's website, read all documents carefully and replace these documents with previously received monitoring requirements table. The monitoring frequencies have increased and Discharge Monitoring Reports are now due quarterly.

Please contact Jenni Seven in DEQ's Northwestern Region office at 503-229-5886 if you have any questions about your permit requirements.

Dear Permit Registrant:

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has issued coverage under the 2017-2022 1200-Z industrial stormwater general permit to the above referenced facility. DEQ has become aware of errors in some Assignment Letters previously provided to registered facilities. Incorrect reference concentrations were provided for the stormwater monitoring parameters DDT Metabolite (DDE), Dieldrin, and PCBs; and the impairment pollutant dissolved copper was omitted from the monitoring requirements for some facilities. Your facility's initial Assignment Letter was identified as containing one or more of these errors.

This letter and attachment provide a CORRECTED Monitoring Table, with the revised reference concentrations and impairment pollutants as appropriate. Additionally, please replace the 1200-Z permit registration face page with the one attached. The final permit is posted on DEQ's industrial stormwater website: http://www.oregon.govideq/FilterPermitsDocs/Final 1 200Zpermit.pdf.

Technical assistance materials associated with this permit are located online at DEQ's industrial stormwater webpage via www.oregon.gov/deq/. As part of the permit requirements, your facility must submit an updated Stormwater Pollution Control Plan to DEQ by December 29, 2017. The document must be submitted by email (10 MB limit), thumb drive or on a CD.

Please contact Ian Garner in DEQ's Northwest Region office at (503) 229-5438 if you have any questions about your permit requirements.

Minimize exposure - Minimize exposure of manufacturing, processing, material storage areas, including loading and unloading, disposal, cleaning, maintenance and fixed fueling areas to rain, snow, snowmelt and runoff. To the extent technologically available and economically practicable and achievable in light of best industry practice, the permit registrant must do the following: i. Locate materials and activities indoors or protect them with storm resistant covers if stormwater from affected areas may discharge to surface waters. Acceptable covers include, permanent structures such as roofs or buildings and temporary covers such as tarps; ii. Use grading, berming, or curbing to divert stormwater away from these areas and prevent stormwater contamination; iii. Store all hazardous substances (see Schedule D.3, Definitions), petroleum/oil liquids, and other chemical solid or liquid materials that have potential to contaminate stormwater within berms or other secondary containment devices to prevent leaks and spills. If the use of berms or secondary containment devices is not practicable, then store such substances in areas that do not drain off-site or into the storm sewer system; iv. Locate materials, equipment and activities in containment and diversion systems, including the storage of leaking or leak-prone vehicles and equipment awaiting maintenance, to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater; v. Use drip pans or absorbents under or around leaking or leak-prone vehicles/equipment or store indoors. Drain fluids from equipment and vehicles prior to on-site storage or disposal; vi. Perform all cleaning operations indoors, under cover or in bermed areas that prevent runoff and run-on and also captures overspray; vii. Clean up spills or leaks promptly using absorbents or other effective methods to prevent discharge of pollutants and use spill/overflow protection equipment; viii.Ensure that all wash water is managed indoors or in bermed areas disposed into sanitary sewer or drain to a proper collection system such as a closed-loop system or vegetated area and does not discharged to the stormwater drainage system unless allowed under condition 8, authorized non-stormwater discharge; and ix. Ensure that known significant materials from previous operations are controlled, removed or otherwise not exposed to stormwater. b. Oil and Grease - Employ oil/water separators, booms, skimmers or other methods to eliminate or minimize oil and grease contamination in stormwater discharges. c. Waste Chemicals and Material Disposal - Recycle or properly dispose of wastes to eliminate or minimize exposure of pollutants to stormwater.

f. SWPCP revisions are not subject to public notice and comment unless revisions are in response to water quality based effluent limit requirements in Schedule A.4 and A.5 of this permit.
g. For Tier II SWPCP submittal requirements, refer to Schedule A.11.

STORMWATER DISCHARGE BENCHMARKS

9. Benchmarks Benchmarks and reference concentrations for impairment pollutants are guideline concentrations, not numeric effluent limits. A benchmark or reference concentration exceedance, therefore, is not a permit violation. Benchmark monitoring assist the permit registrant in determining whether site controls are effectively reducing pollutant concentrations in stormwater discharged from the site.

Permit registrants must monitor for the following applicable benchmarks at all discharge points. See Schedule E of this permit for sector-specific benchmarks that apply to certain industrial sectors and colocated industrial activities.

CORRECTIVE ACTIONS FOR IMPAIRMENT POLLUTANT AND BENCHMARK EXCEEDANCES

10. Tier I Corrective Action Response to Exceedances of Impairment Pollutants and Benchmarks:

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 19 of 127
a. If stormwater monitoring results exceed any of the applicable statewide benchmarks in Schedule A.9 of this permit, sector-specific benchmarks in Schedule E of this permit, or reference concentrations for impairment pollutants identified in the permit assignment letter, the permit registrant must, no later than 30 calendar days after receiving the monitoring results or visual observations show signs of pollution: i. Investigate the cause of the elevated pollutant levels, including conducting, commencing or planning for any needed pollutant source tracing activities. Develop a plan to ensure that known or discovered significant materials from previous operations are controlled, removed or otherwise not exposed. ii. Review the SWPCP and the selection, design, installation and implementation of control measures to ensure compliance with this permit and manufacturers' specifications. Evaluate whether any previous removal or pollutant source isolation actions are complete and whether additional removal or modifications to pollutant source isolation are necessary. Evaluate any treatment measures, including if they were properly installed, maintained and implemented and whether maintenance, corrections, or modifications to treatment measures are necessary. iii. If permit registrant determines that additional control measures or other changes are necessary based on corrective action review, revise the SWPCP and submit the revised pages of the SWPCP to DEQ or agent, including a schedule for implementing the control measures. iv. Tier I report - Summarize the following information in a Tier I report: (1) The results of the investigation referred to in condition 10.a.i, above. (2) Corrective actions taken or to be taken, including date corrective action completed or expected to be completed. Where the permit registrant determines that corrective action is not necessary, provide the basis for this determination. (3) Document whether SWPCP revisions are necessary. iv. Keep Tier I reports on-site, and submit to DEQ or agent upon request.
b. Implement corrective actions before the next storm event, if possible, or no later than 30 calendar days after receiving the monitoring results, whichever comes first. If permit registrant fails to complete the corrective action within this time frame, the reasoning should be documented in the Tier 1 Report, and corrective actions must be completed as soon as practicable.
c. Permit registrants are exempt from the Tier I investigation and reporting requirements for exceedances of benchmark parameter(s) addressed by proposed Tier II corrective action requirements in Schedule A.11. The exemption applies from the end of second monitoring year through the Tier II implementation deadline only. Tier I investigation and reporting must resume once Tier II is implemented.
11. Tier II Corrective Action Response based on second year Geometric Mean Benchmark Evaluation: a. Permit registrants must evaluate the sampling results collected during the second monitoring year of permit coverage and determine if the geometric mean of the qualifying samples collected at each monitored discharge point exceeds any applicable statewide benchmarks in Schedule A.9 of this permit. DEQ or agent will identify in the permit assignment letter the registrant's Tier II evaluation year. The permit registrant must report this information in the Discharge Monitoring Report for that monitoring year. Permit registrants are not required to conduct this evaluation for the benchmark parameter(s) for which DEQ or agent has granted a monitoring waiver in accordance with Schedule B.4 of this permit.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 20 of 127
b. For the pH benchmark, Tier II corrective action requirements are triggered if 50 percent or more of qualifying samples during the first two monitoring years of permit coverage are outside of the pH benchmark range.
c. For permit registrants that received new coverage under a previous industrial stormwater general permit (that is, the 1200-COLS, 1200-COLSB or 1200-Z) on or after July 1, 2016, time spent covered under the previous permit is included in determining the second year of permit coverage and other Tier II deadlines.
d. The permit registrant must use all qualifying samples to calculate the geometric mean. e. If fewer than four qualifying samples were collected during the second monitoring year of permit
coverage, qualifying sample results from the previous monitoring year may be used to obtain four consecutive values for the Tier II calculation. f. If the geometric mean of the qualifying sampling results for any monitored discharge point exceeds any applicable statewide benchmark in Schedule A.9 of this permit (or if 50 percent or more of any pH sampling results for any monitored discharge point are outside of the pH benchmark range), permit registrant must submit a Tier II report, a Tier II mass reduction waiver request, or a Tier II natural background waiver request, along with associated revisions of the SWPCP, to DEQ or agent no later than December 31 of the third year of permit coverage, unless a later date is approved in writing by DEQ or agent. DEQ or agent will notify permit registrant within 60 calendar days of receipt if the Tier II corrective action response is accepted or denied. g. Tier II corrective action(s) or mass reduction action(s) must be installed and implemented no later than June 30 of the fourth monitoring year, unless DEQ or agent approved a later date in writing. If the permit registrant changes the specifics of the corrective actions before implementation, revisions must be submitted and accepted by DEQ or agent before implementation. Corrective action revisions do not change the implementation deadline. h. No later than 30 calendar days from implementing all Tier II corrective actions or mass reduction measures, the permit registrant must submit written confirmation to DEQ or agent with the date Tier II corrective action response was implemented in accordance with the revised approved SWPCP. i. Properly apply and size approved Tier II corrective action responses and mass reduction measures to all substantially similar discharge points. j. Tier II Report i. The Tier II report must include a proposal for active or passive treatment. This may include a
combination of source removal, control and treatment measures, with the goal of achieving the benchmark(s) in Schedule A.9 of this permit. The report must include the rationale for the selection of the control and treatment measures, the projected reduction of pollutant concentration(s) and the schedule for implementing these measures. ii. An Oregon registered professional engineer (PE) must design and stamp the portion of the SWPCP that addresses these control measures. iii. At discharge points where Tier II has been implemented: (1) Permit registrants must take Tier I corrective actions in accordance with A.10. (2) Monitoring must resume at substantially similar discharge points. (3) Permit registrants may request a monitoring waiver if the geometric mean of four
consecutive qualifying samples is equal to or below the benchmark. k. Tier II Mass Reduction Waiver

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 21 of 127
i. A permit registrant may request a mass reduction waiver from the requirements in Schedule A.11.j above if the permit registrant implements volume reduction measures, such as low impact development practices, that will result in reductions of the mass load of pollutants in the discharge below the mass equivalent of the applicable statewide benchmarks in Schedule A.9 of this permit.
ii. The mass reduction waiver request and the revised SWPCP must include data and analysis to support the rationale for the mass load reduction selection. Include in the waiver request a description of the measure(s), and a mass load analysis, and expected implementation date(s).
iii. An Oregon Professional Engineer (PE) or Oregon certified engineering geologist (CEG) must design and stamp the portion of the SWPCP that addresses the mass reduction measures.
iv. At discharge points at which a Tier II mass reduction waiver has been implemented: (1) Permit registrants must take Tier I corrective actions in accordance with A.10. (2) Monitoring must resume at substantially similar discharge points. (3) Permit registrants may request a monitoring waiver if the geometric mean of four consecutive qualifying samples is equal to or below the benchmark.
l. Tier II Natural Background Waiver i. A permit registrant may request a natural background waiver from the requirements in Schedule A.11.j above if the benchmark exceedance(s) is attributed solely to the presence of the pollutant(s) in natural background and is not associated with industrial activities at the site (see Schedule D.3, Definitions). The Tier II natural background waiver request must include the investigation and analysis used to demonstrate that the exceedances are due only to natural background conditions and data collected by the permit registrant or others (including peer-reviewed literature studies) that describe the levels of natural background pollutants in the discharge.
12. Permit Compliance a. Any noncompliance with any of the requirements of this permit constitutes a violation of the Clean Water Act. b. Any corrective actions and time periods specified for remedying noncompliance with the permit do not absolve permit registrants of the initial underlying violations. c. Where corrective action is triggered by an event that does not itself constitute a violation, such as a benchmark exceedance, there is no permit violation associated with the trigger event provided that the permit registrant takes the corrective action within the deadlines identified in this permit. d. A new permit registrant with a new facility (that begins operation after August 1, 2017) or an existing facility (that was in operation before August 1, 2017, without a stormwater discharge permit) must implement stormwater control measures to meet new technology and water quality based requirements in Schedule A.1 ­ A.5, including applicable sector-specific requirements in Schedule E of this permit, no later than 90 calendar days of after receiving permit coverage. Control measures that require capital improvements must be completed no later than two years after receiving permit coverage, unless DEQ or agent approved a later date.
13. Corrective Action Triggers The permit contains many types of corrective action triggers: statewide benchmarks, sectorspecific benchmarks, numeric effluent limits and impairment reference concentrations. The numeric value of the corrective action trigger for a particular pollutant is often different for

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 22 of 127
different types of triggers. For a particular facility, multiple corrective action triggers may apply for a particular pollutant. When exceeding multiple applicable corrective action triggers, the permit registrant must follow the corrective actions for each trigger.
SCHEDULE B
MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
1. Pollutant Parameters a. Benchmarks - Permit registrants must monitor for the applicable statewide benchmark pollutants identified in Schedule A.9 of this permit. Permit registrants must also monitor for benchmarks specified for applicable industrial sector(s) identified in Schedule E, for both primary industrial activity and any co-located industrial activities. b. Impairment Pollutants i. Permit registrants that discharge to an impaired water without a TMDL (303(d) list Category 5) for pollutant(s), must monitor for impairment pollutants identified in the permit assignment letter for which a standard analytical method exists (see 40 CFR Part 136). Permit registrants that discharge to an impaired water with a TMDL are not required to monitor for impairment pollutants addressed by the TMDL, unless the TMDL establishes wasteload allocation(s) and additional requirements for industrial stormwater discharges have been identified in the permit assignment letter. ii. Before granting coverage under this permit, DEQ or agent will identify in the permit assignment letter the impairment pollutants that the permit registrant is required to monitor and reference concentrations for these pollutants. Reference concentrations reflect the approved acute aquatic life criterion for the pollutant when applicable. If there is not an acute criterion for the pollutant, DEQ or agent will use an applicable chronic criterion. If there is not a chronic criterion for the pollutant, DEQ or agent will use an applicable human health criterion. (1) If the pollutant for which the waterbody is impaired is suspended solids, turbidity or sediment/sedimentation, permit registrants must monitor for Total Suspended Solids (TSS). (2) If the pollutant for which the waterbody is impaired is expressed in the form of an indicator or surrogate pollutant, permit registrants must monitor for that indicator or surrogate pollutant. (3) No monitoring is required when a waterbody's impairment is due to one of the following: (A) Biological communities and no pollutant, including indicator or surrogate pollutants, is specified as causing the impairment; or (B) Temperature, hydrologic modifications, or impaired hydrology. c. Numeric Effluent limits pursuant to Federal Effluent Limit Guidelines - Permit registrants subject to effluent limit guidelines must monitor for the parameters in Schedule A.2 of this permit at each discharge point containing the discharges from industrial activities identified in the guidelines and report the monitoring results in the Discharge Monitoring Report required by Schedule B.8. d. Multiple Requirements - When more than one type of monitoring for the same pollutant at the same discharge point applies, the permit registrant may use a single sample to satisfy both

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 23 of 127
monitoring requirements. Permit registrant must complete corrective action and reporting requirement for each parameter.
2. Sampling Procedures a. Grab Sampling i. For each discharge point monitored, collect a single grab sample of stormwater discharge or a series of composite samples. ii. Composite samples may be used as an alternative to grab sampling, except when monitoring for pH, oil and grease and E. coli. Composited samples must be collected from same storm event. Registrants may not switch between grab sampling to composite sampling during a monitoring year without DEQ or agent approval. iii. Permit registrants may use a single grab sample or composite to satisfy multiple pollutant parameter monitoring requirements (for example, required to monitor for zinc as benchmark and impairment pollutant). b. Representative Sample i. Samples must be representative of the discharge. ii. Monitoring locations must be identified in the SWPCP. iii. All samples must be taken at discharge points located before the stormwater joins or is diluted by stormwater from a different drainage area of the facility or areas outside the facility; wastewater, or any other wastestream, body of water or substance, including groundwater unless: (1) DEQ or agent approve in writing; or (2) On-site stormwater flows combine into a common treatment facility (for example, filter or settling pond). In this case, monitor the discharge from the treatment facility. c. Multiple Discharges - Each discharge point must be monitored unless: i. Discharge point serves an area without exposure of stormwater to industrial activities; or ii. Discharge point has effluent that is substantially similar to the effluent(s) of a monitored discharge point and the same BMPs are implemented and maintained at the substantially similar discharge points or drainage areas that lead to the discharge points. Substantially similar effluent(s) are discharges from drainage areas serving comparable activities where the discharges are expected to be similar in composition. The determination of substantial similarity of effluent(s) must be based on past monitoring data or an analysis supporting that the discharge points are substantially similar. The supporting data or analysis must be included in the SWPCP. This provision does not apply to discharge point(s) covered by a numeric effluent limit. d. Timing - Monitor the discharge during the first 12 hours of the discharge event, which is a storm event or snowmelt resulting in an actual discharge from a site. If it is not practicable to collect the sample within this period, collect the sample as soon as practicable and provide documentation with the Discharge Monitoring Report why it was not practicable to take samples within the period. Permit registrant is not required to sample outside of regular business hours of operation or during unsafe conditions. e. Sampling for pH - Approved methods for pH sampling require either measuring the pH directly in the flow, or analyzing the sample within 15 minutes of sample collection. i. Obtain accurate pH readings with a properly calibrated pH meter.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 24 of 127

ii. Permit registrant must follow manufacturers' specifications and keep meter in good working order.
iii. pH paper may not be used for determining the precise parameters established in this permit. f. Monitoring Frequency - Permit registrants must monitor their stormwater discharge according to
the frequency described in Table 5 below unless DEQ or agent grant a monitoring waiver in writing or approve a monitoring variance. i. Stormwater samples must be collected at least 14 calendar days apart. ii. Permit registrant may collect more samples than the minimum frequency described below,
but must report this additional data in the Discharge Monitoring Report. All qualifying samples must be included to establish a monitoring waiver in Schedule B.4 or to conduct the geometric mean evaluation in Schedule A.11 of this permit. iii. Exceedance of Numeric Effluent Limit in Schedule A.2 of this permit ­ Permit registrants must conduct follow-up monitoring of any pollutant that exceeds the numeric effluent limit(s) no later than 30 calendar days (or during the next storm event should none occur within 30 calendar days) of receiving the monitoring results. If the follow-up monitoring exceeds the numeric effluent limit, the permit registrant must monitor the discharge four times per year until compliance with the numeric effluent limit is achieved. Once monitoring achieves the effluent limit value, annual frequency may resume.

Table 5: Monitoring Frequency
Pollutant Category Applicable statewide benchmarks in Schedule A.9, and any applicable sector-specific benchmarks in Schedule E
Impairment Pollutants, if applicable

Minimum Frequency Four times per year Two samples on or before Dec. 31 and two samples on or after Jan. 1.
For example, for the 2017/2018 monitoring year, two samples between July 1 and Dec. 31, 2017; and two samples between Jan. 1 and June 30, 2018. Two times per year One sample on or before Dec. 31 and one sample on or after Jan. 1.

For example, for the 2017/2018 monitoring year, one sample between July 1 and Dec. 31, 2017; and one sample between Jan. 1 and June 30, 2018.

Numeric Effluent Limits, if applicable One time per year, unless exceedance occurs

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 25 of 127
3. Monitoring Variance a. Permit registrants may request a monitoring variance for missed samples due to no storm events of sufficient magnitude to produce run-off during regular business hours of operation and safe conditions. For each missed sample, report in the Discharge Monitoring Report that no discharge occurred and provide supporting data and analysis demonstrating why the monitoring did not occur. If DEQ or agent has evidence contradicting the permit registrant's no discharge claim, failure to complete the required monitoring may be a permit violation. Supporting data may include: i. State or federal authorities declared the year a drought year. ii. Demonstration that rainfall in the area where the permit registrant's facility is located was 20 percent or more below the three-year average rainfall for that area. iii. Photo documentation, rain gauge data, detention basin storage volumes, storm infiltration rate or retention capacity.
4. Monitoring Waiver for Benchmark and Impairment Pollutant Monitoring a. A monitoring waiver may be requested from DEQ or agent in the following circumstances: i. When the benchmark or impairment reference concentration has been achieved, as demonstrated by: (1) The geometric mean of four consecutive qualifying samples is equal to or below the impairment reference concentration, applicable statewide or sector-specific benchmarks. (2) pH results are within the range for four consecutive qualifying readings. (3) For Tier II parameters and discharge points once the corrective action has been implemented, and the geometric mean of four consecutive qualifying samples is equal to or below the applicable statewide benchmark, or pH results are within the range for four consecutive readings. ii. If the exceedance(s) is attributed solely to the presence of the pollutant(s) in natural background and is not associated with industrial activities at the site. Permit registrant may submit a natural background waiver report to DEQ or agent that describes the investigation and analysis to demonstrate that the exceedances are due to natural background conditions and includes any data collected by the permit registrant or others (including peer-review literature studies) that describe the levels of natural background pollutants in the discharge. iii. If a facility is inactive and unstaffed and no industrial materials or activities are exposed to stormwater, the permit registrant is not required to conduct monitoring for the remainder of the permit term. (1) Permit registrant must provide documentation with the Discharge Monitoring Report indicating that the site is inactive and unstaffed, and that there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater, in accordance with the substantive requirements in 40 CFR 122.26(g)(4)(iii). (2) Sign and certify the statement in accordance with D8 in Schedule F of this permit. b. The permit registrant's request must include documentation to support the request. Monitoring waivers may be allowed for individual parameters and separate discharge points. c. If the facility has triggered Tier II during this permit term, permit registrants are ineligible for monitoring waivers at all discharge points and parameters that exceeded the geometric mean in

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 26 of 127
Schedule A.11. The ineligibility applies to the end of second monitoring year through Tier II implementation date. d. DEQ or agent will notify the permit registrant in writing if a monitoring waiver is approved or denied. Until written approval of the monitoring waiver is received, the permit registrant must continue monitoring. e. Monitoring waivers are valid for the remainder of the permit term. Upon renewal into a subsequent permit, permit registrants must reinstate all monitoring, and re-establish the basis for all monitoring waivers. f. There is no reduction in monitoring allowed for: i. Visual observations, unless the site is inactive or unstaffed and there are no industrial
materials or activities exposed to stormwater and permit registrant meets requirements in Schedule B.4.a.iii of this permit. ii. Monitoring for federal numeric effluent limit guidelines. g. Reinstatement of Monitoring i. It is the responsibility of the permit registrant to reinstate discharge monitoring under the following circumstances or if notified by DEQ or agent: (1) Prior monitoring used to establish the monitoring waiver was improper or sampling
results were incorrect; (2) Changes to site conditions are likely to affect stormwater discharge characteristics, such
as change in SIC code, process change or increased pollutants sources exposed to stormwater; (3) Additional monitoring occurs and the sampling results exceed benchmark(s) or impairment reference concentration(s); or (4) For inactive or unstaffed sites, the facility becomes active or staffed, or industrial materials or activities become exposed to stormwater. h. Revocation of Monitoring Waiver DEQ or agent may revoke the monitoring waiver based on any of the above conditions or in response to an inspection or corrective action. In this event, DEQ or agent will notify the permit registrant in writing that the monitoring waiver is revoked.
5. Additional Monitoring- DEQ may notify permit registrants in writing of additional discharge monitoring requirements. Any such notice will state the reasons for the monitoring, locations and pollutants to be monitored, frequency and period of monitoring, sample types and reporting requirements.
6. For new permit registrants discharging to Clackamas River, McKenzie River above Hayden Bridge (River Mile 15), North Santiam River or North Fork Smith River subbasin under OAR 340-041-0350 (For potential or existing dischargers that did not have a permit prior to January 28, 1994, and existing dischargers that have a NPDES stormwater discharge permit but request an increased load limitation.) a. No later than 180 calendar days after obtaining permit coverage, permit registrant must submit to DEQ a monitoring and water quality evaluation program. This program must be effective in evaluating the in-stream impacts of the discharge as required by OAR 340-041-0350. b. No later than 30 calendar days from DEQ approval, the permit registrant must implement the monitoring and water quality evaluation program.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: August 1, 2017 Expiration: July 31, 2022 Page 27 of 127

E.F.1 Additional Technology-Based Effluent Limits

E.F.1.1

Good Housekeeping Measures. As part of your good housekeeping program, include a cleaning and maintenance program for all impervious areas of the facility where particulate matter, dust, or debris may accumulate, especially areas where material loading and unloading, storage, handling, and processing occur; and, where practicable, the paving of areas where vehicle traffic or material storage occur but where vegetative or other stabilization methods are not practicable (institute a sweeping program in these areas too). For unstabilized areas where sweeping is not practicable, consider using stormwater management devices such as sediment traps, vegetative buffer strips, filter fabric fence, sediment filtering boom, gravel outlet protection, or other equivalent measures that effectively trap or remove sediment.

E.F.2 Additional SWPCP Requirements

E.F.2.1

Drainage Area Site Map. Identify in the SWPCP where any of the following activities may be exposed to precipitation or surface runoff: storage or disposal of wastes such as spent solvents and baths, sand, slag and dross; liquid storage tanks and drums; processing areas including pollution control equipment (e.g., baghouses); and storage areas of raw material such as coal, coke, scrap, sand, fluxes, refractories, or metal in any form. In addition, indicate where an accumulation of significant amounts of particulate matter could occur from such sources as furnace or oven emissions, losses from coal and coke handling operations, etc., and could result in a discharge of pollutants to waters of the United States.

E.F.2.2 Inventory of Exposed Material. Include in the inventory of materials handled at the site that potentially may be exposed to precipitation or runoff, areas where deposition of particulate matter from process air emissions or losses during material-handling activities are possible.

E.F.3 Additional Inspection Requirements
As part of conducting your monthly inspections address all potential sources of pollutants, including (if applicable) air pollution control equipment (e.g., baghouses, electrostatic precipitators, scrubbers, and cyclones), for any signs of degradation (e.g., leaks, corrosion, or improper operation) that could limit their efficiency and lead to excessive emissions. Consider monitoring air flow at inlets and outlets (or use equivalent measures) to check for leaks (e.g., particulate deposition) or blockage in ducts. Also inspect all process and material handling equipment (e.g., conveyors, cranes, and vehicles) for leaks, drips, or the potential loss of material; and material storage areas (e.g., piles, bins, or hoppers for storing coke, coal, scrap, or slag, as well as chemicals stored in tanks and drums) for signs of material losses due to wind or stormwater runoff.

E.G.1 Covered Stormwater Discharges The requirements in Sector G apply to stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity from Metal Mining facilities, including mines abandoned on Federal lands, as identified by the SIC Codes specified under types of industrial sources required to obtain coverage, Table 1. Coverage is required for metal mining facilities that discharge stormwater contaminated by contact with, or that has come into contact with, any overburden, raw material, intermediate product, finished product, byproduct, or waste product located on the site of the operation. E.G.1.1 Covered Discharges from Inactive Facilities. All stormwater discharges. E.G.1.2 Covered Discharges from Active and Temporarily Inactive Facilities. Only the stormwater
discharges from the following areas are covered:  Waste rock and overburden piles if composed entirely of stormwater and not combined
with mine drainage;  Topsoil piles;  Offsite haul and access roads;  Onsite haul and access roads constructed of waste rock, overburden or spent ore if
composed entirely of stormwater and not combining with mine drainage;  Onsite haul and access roads not constructed of waste rock, overburden or spent ore except
if mine drainage is used for dust control;  Runoff from tailings dams or dikes when not constructed of waste rock or tailings and no
process fluids are present;  Runoff from tailings dams or dikes when constructed of waste rock or tailings and no
process fluids are present, if composed entirely of stormwater and not combining with mine drainage;  Concentration building if no contact with material piles;  Mill site if no contact with material piles;  Office or administrative building and housing if mixed with stormwater from industrial area;  Chemical storage area;  Docking facility if no excessive contact with waste product that would otherwise constitute mine drainage;  Explosive storage;  Fuel storage;  Vehicle and equipment maintenance area and building;  Parking areas (if necessary);  Power plant;  Truck wash areas if no excessive contact with waste product that would otherwise constitute mine drainage;  Unreclaimed, disturbed areas outside of active mining area;  Reclaimed areas released from reclamation requirements prior to December 17, 1990;  Partially or inadequately reclaimed areas or areas not released from reclamation requirements.

All stormwater discharges.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 53 of 127

E.G.2 Limitations on Coverage E.G.2.1 Prohibition of Stormwater Discharges. Stormwater discharges not authorized by this permit:
discharges from active metal mining facilities that are subject to effluent limitation guidelines for the Ore Mining and Dressing Point Source Category (40 CFR Part 440). Note: Stormwater runoff from these sources are subject to 40 CFR Part 440 if they are mixed with other discharges subject to Part 440. In this case, they are not eligible for coverage under this permit. Discharges from overburden/waste rock and overburden/waste rock-related areas are not subject to 40 CFR Part 440 unless they: (1) drain naturally (or are intentionally diverted) to a point source; and (2) combine with ''mine drainage'' that is otherwise regulated under the Part 440 regulations. For such sources, coverage under this permit would be available if the discharge composed entirely of stormwater does not combine with other sources of mine drainage that are not subject to 40 CFR Part 440. Operators bear the initial responsibility for determining if they are eligible for coverage under this permit, or must seek coverage under another NPDES permit. E.G.2.2 Prohibition of Non-Stormwater Discharges. Not authorized by this permit: adit drainage, and contaminated springs or seeps discharging from waste rock dumps that do not directly result from precipitation events.

E.G.3 Definitions The following definitions are not intended to supersede the definitions of active and inactive mining facilities established by 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(iii). E.G.3.1 Mining operation ­ For this permit, mining operations are grouped into two distinct categories,
with distinct technology based effluent limits and requirements applicable to each: a) earthdisturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities); and b) active mining activities, which includes reclamation. "Mining operations" can occur at both inactive mining facilities and temporarily inactive mining facilities. E.G.3.2 Earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities ­ Consists of two classes of earth-disturbing (i.e., clearing, grading and excavation) activities: a. activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation, including: cutting new rights of way (except when related to access road construction); providing access to a mine site for vehicles and equipment (except when related to access road construction); other earth disturbances associated with site preparation activities on any areas where active mining activities have not yet commenced (e.g., for heap leach pads, waste rock facilities, tailings impoundments, wastewater treatment plants); and b. construction of staging areas to prepare for erecting structures such as to house project personnel and equipment, mill buildings, etc., and construction of access roads. Earth-disturbing activities associated with the construction of staging areas and the construction of access roads conducted prior to active mining are considered to be "construction" and have additional technology based effluent limits in E.G.4.2.

E.G.3.3

Active mining activities ­ Activities related to the extraction, removal or recovery, and benefication of metal ore from the earth; removal of overburden and waste rock to expose mineable minerals; and site reclamation and closure activities. All such activities occur within the "active mining area." Reclamation involves activities undertaken, in compliance with applicable mined land reclamation requirements, to return the land to an appropriate postmining contour and land use in order to meet applicable federal and state reclamation requirements. In addition, once earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities have ceased and all related requirements in E.G.4 have been met, and a well-

E.G.3.4 E.G.3.5 E.G.3.6

delineated "active mining area" has been established, all activities (including any clearing, grading, and excavation) that occur within the active mining area are "active mining activities." Active mining area ­ A place where work or other activity related to the extraction, removal or recovery of metal ore is being conducted, except, with respect to surface mines, any area of land on or in which grading has been completed to return the earth to desired contour and reclamation work has begun. Note: Earth-disturbing activities described in the definition in E.G.3.2 that occur on areas outside the active mining area (e.g., for expansion of the mine into undeveloped territory) are considered "earth-disturbing conducted prior to active mining activities", and must comply with the requirements in E.G.4 Inactive metal mining facility ­ A site or portion of a site where metal mining and/or milling occurred in the past but there are no active mining activities occurring as defined above, and where the inactive portion is not covered by an active mining permit issued by the applicable state or federal agency. An inactive metal mining facility has an identifiable owner / operator. Sites where mining claims are being maintained prior to disturbances associated with the extraction, beneficiation, or processing of mined materials and sites where minimal activities are undertaken for the sole purpose of maintaining a mining claim are not considered either active or inactive mining facilities and do not require an NPDES industrial stormwater permit. Temporarily inactive metal mining facility ­ A site or portion of a site where metal mining and/or milling occurred in the past but currently are not being actively undertaken, and the facility is covered by an active mining permit issued by the applicable State or Federal agency.

E.G.4 Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities
Stormwater discharges from earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities (defined in E.G.3.3) are covered under this permit. For such earth-disturbing activities, permit registrants do not need to comply the technology-based effluent limits or Schedule B, monitoring or inspection frequency in Schedule B or E.G.5, E.G.7 or E.G.8. Authorized discharges from areas where earth-disturbing activities have ceased and stabilization as specified in E.G.4.1.9 or E.G.4.2.11, where appropriate, has been completed (stabilization is not required for areas where active mining activities will occur), are no longer subject to E.G.4 requirements. At such time, authorized discharges become subject to all other applicable requirements in the permit, including not need to comply the technology-based effluent limits or Schedule B, monitoring or inspection frequency in Schedule B and Sector E.G.5, E.G.7 and E.G.8. E.G.4.1 Technology-Based Effluent Limits Applicable to All Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities. The following technology-based effluent limits apply to authorized discharges from all earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities defined in E.G.3. These limits supersede the technology-based limits listed in Schedule A.

E.G.4.1.1 Erosion and sediment control installation requirements.  By the time construction activities commence, install and make operational downgradient sediment controls, unless this timeframe is infeasible. If infeasible you must install and make such controls operational as soon as practicable or as soon as site conditions permit.  All other stormwater controls described in the SWPCP must be installed and made operational as soon as conditions on each portion of the site allows.

E.G.4.1.2 Erosion and sediment control maintenance requirements. You must:

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 55 of 127
 Ensure that all erosion and sediment controls remain in effective operating condition.
 Wherever you determine that a stormwater control needs maintenance to continue operating effectively, initiate efforts to fix the problem immediately after its discovery, and complete such work by the end of the next work day.
 When a stormwater control must be replaced or significantly repaired, complete the work within 7 days, unless infeasible. If 7 days is infeasible, you must complete the installation or repair as soon practicable.
E.G.4.1.3 Perimeter controls. You must:  Install sediment controls along those perimeter areas of your disturbed area that will receive stormwater, except where site conditions prevent the use of such controls (in which case, maximize their installation to the extent practicable).  Remove sediment before it accumulates to one-half of the above-ground height of any perimeter control.
E.G.4.1.4 Sediment track-out. For construction vehicles and equipment exiting the site directly onto paved roads, you must:  Install sediment controls along those perimeter areas of your disturbed area that will receive stormwater, except where site conditions prevent the use of such controls (in which case, maximize their installation to the extent practicable).  Remove sediment before it accumulates to one-half of the above-ground height of any perimeter control.  Note: DEQ recognizes that some fine grains may remain visible on the surfaces of off-site streets, other paved areas, and sidewalks even after you have implemented sediment removal practices. Such "staining" is not a violation of E.G.4.1.4.
E.G.4.1.5 Soil or sediment stockpiles. You must:  Minimize erosion of stockpiles from stormwater and wind via temporary cover, if feasible.  Prevent up-slope stormwater flows from causing erosion of stockpiles (e.g., by diverting flows around the stockpile).  Minimize sediment from stormwater that runs off of stockpiles, using sediment controls (e.g., a sediment barrier or downslope sediment control).
E.G.4.1.6 Sediment basins. If you intend to install a sediment basin to treat stormwater from your earth-disturbing activities, you must:  Provide storage for either (1) the 2-year, 24-hour storm, or (2) 3,600 cubic feet per acre drained.  Prevent erosion of (1) basin embankments using stabilization controls (e.g., erosion control blankets), and (2) the inlet and outlet points of the basin using erosion controls and velocity dissipation devices.
E.G.4.1.7 Minimize dust. You must minimize the generation of dust through the appropriate application of water or other dust suppression techniques that minimize pollutants being discharged into surface waters.
E.G.4.1.8 Restrictions on use of treatment chemicals. If you intend to use sediment treatment chemicals at your site, you are subject to the following minimum requirements:  Use conventional erosion and sediment controls prior to and after application of chemicals;  Select chemicals suited to soil type, and expected turbidity, pH, flow rate;  Minimize the discharge risk from stored chemicals;  Comply with state/local requirements;

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 56 of 127

 Use chemicals in accordance with good engineering practices and specifications of chemical supplier;
 Ensure proper training;  Provide proper SWPCP documentation. If you plan to use cationic treatment chemicals, you are ineligible for coverage under this permit, unless you notify your applicable DEQ regional office or agent in advance and receive authorization under this permit after you have included appropriate controls and implementation procedures designed to ensure that your use of cationic treatment chemicals will not lead to a violation of water quality standards. E.G.4.1.9 Site stabilization requirements for earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation as defined in E.G.3.2(a) (i.e., not applicable to construction of staging areas for structures and access roads as defined in E.G.3.2(b)). You must comply with the following stabilization requirements except where the intended function of the site accounts for such disturbed earth (e.g., the earth disturbances will become actively mined, or the controls implemented at the active mining area effectively control the disturbance) (although you are encouraged to do so within the active mining area, where appropriate):  Temporary stabilization of disturbed areas. Stabilization measures must be
initiated immediately in portions of the site where earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation (as defined in E.G.3.2(a)) have temporarily ceased, but in no case more than 14 days after such activities have temporarily ceased. In arid, semi-arid, and drought-stricken areas, or in areas subject to snow or freezing conditions, where initiating perennial vegetative stabilization measures is not possible within 14 days after earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation has temporarily ceased, temporary vegetative stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable. Until temporary vegetative stabilization is achieved, interim measures such as erosion control blankets with an appropriate seed base and tackifiers must be employed. In areas of the site where earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation have permanently ceased prior to active mining, temporary stabilization measures must be implemented to minimize mobilization of sediment or other pollutants until active mining activities commence.  Final stabilization of disturbed areas. Stabilization measures must be initiated immediately where earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation (as defined in E.G.3.2(a)) have permanently ceased, but in no case more than 14 days after the earth-disturbing activities have permanently ceased. In arid, semi-arid, and drought-stricken areas, or in areas subject to snow or freezing conditions, where initiating perennial vegetative stabilization measures is not possible within 14 days after earth-disturbing activities have permanently ceased, final vegetative stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as possible. Until final stabilization is achieved, temporary stabilization measures, such as erosion control blankets with an appropriate seed base and tackifiers, must be used.

E.G.4.2

Additional Technology-Based Effluent Limits Applicable Only to the Construction of Staging Areas for Structures and Access Roads. The following technology-based effluent limits apply to authorized discharges from earth-disturbing activities associated with the construction of staging areas and the construction of access roads, as defined in E.G.3.2(b). These limits supersede the technology-based limits listed in Schedule B and E.G.5 of this sector. These

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 57 of 127
limits do not apply to earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation (as defined in E.G.3.2(a)). E.G.4.2.1 Area of disturbance. You must minimize the amount of soil exposed during
construction activities. E.G.4.2.2 Erosion and sediment control design requirements. You must:
 Design, install and maintain effective erosion and sediment controls to minimize the discharge of pollutants from earth-disturbing activities. Account for the following factors in designing your erosion and sediment controls: o The expected amount, frequency, intensity and duration of precipitation; o The nature of stormwater runoff and run-on at the site, including factors such as impervious surfaces, slopes and site drainage features; o The range of soil particle sizes expected to be present on the site.
 Direct discharges from your stormwater controls to vegetated areas of your site to increase sediment removal and maximize stormwater infiltration, including any natural buffers, unless infeasible. Use velocity dissipation devices if necessary to prevent erosion when directing stormwater to vegetated areas.
 If any stormwater flow becomes or will be channelized at your site, you must design erosion and sediment controls to control both peak flowrates and total stormwater volume to minimize channel and streambank erosion and scour in the immediate vicinity of discharge points.
 If you install stormwater conveyance channels, they must be designed to avoid unstabilized areas on the site and to reduce erosion, unless infeasible. In addition, you must minimize erosion of channels and their embankments, outlets, adjacent streambanks, slopes, and downstream waters during discharge conditions through the use of erosion controls and velocity dissipation devices within and along the length of any constructed stormwater conveyance channel, and at any outlet to provide a non-erosive flow velocity.
E.G.4.2.3 Natural Buffers. For any stormwater discharges from earth-disturbing activities within 50 feet of a water of the U.S., you must comply with one of the following compliance alternatives: 1. Maintain a 50-foot undisturbed natural buffer between earth-disturbing activities and the water of the U.S.; or 2. Provide an undisturbed natural buffer that is less than 50 feet, permit registrant must implement one or more of the BMPs listed below to control and treat sediment and turbidity:  Compost berms, compost blankets, or compost socks;  Erosion control mats;  Takifiers used in combination with perimeter sediment controls;  Approved water treatment by electro-coagulation, flocculation, or filtration; and/or  Other substantially equivalent sediment or turbidity control measures approved by DEQ or agent. 3. Ensure all discharges are treated by control measures prior to entering the natural buffer. 4. Delineate and clearly mark off all natural buffers. There are exceptions when buffer requirements do not apply:  The natural buffer has already been eliminated by preexisting development disturbances;

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 58 of 127
 The disturbance is for a water-dependent structure or earth-disturbing approved under a CWA section 404 permit.
E.G.4.2.4 Soil or sediment stockpiles. In addition to the requirements in E.G.4.1.5, you must locate any piles outside of any natural buffers established under E.G.4.2.3.
E.G.4.2.5 Sediment basins. In addition to the requirements in E.G.4.1.6, you must locate sediment basins outside of any surface waters and any natural buffers established under E.G.4.2.3, and you must utilize outlet structures that withdraw water from the surface, unless infeasible.
E.G.4.2.6 Native topsoil preservation. You must preserve native topsoil removed during clearing, grading, or excavation, unless infeasible. Store topsoil in a manner that will maximize its use in reclamation or final vegetative stabilization (e.g., by keeping the topsoil stabilized with seed or similar measures). This requirement does not apply if the intended function of the disturbed area dictates that topsoil be disturbed or removed.
E.G.4.2.7 Steep slopes. You must minimize the disturbance of steep slopes. The permit does not prevent or prohibit disturbance on steep slopes. Depending on site conditions and needs, disturbance on steep slopes may be necessary (e.g., a road cut in mountainous terrain; for grading steep slopes prior to erecting the mine office). Where steep slope disturbances are necessary, you can minimize the disturbances to steep slopes through the implementation of a number of standard erosion and sediment control practices, such as by phasing disturbances in these areas and using stabilization practices specifically for steep grades.
E.G.4.2.8 Soil compaction. Where final vegetative stabilization will occur or where infiltration practices will be installed, you must either restrict vehicle/ equipment use in these areas to avoid soil compaction or use soil conditioning techniques to support vegetative growth. Minimizing soil compaction is not required where compacted soil is integral to the functionality of the site.
E.G.4.2.9 Dewatering Practices. You are prohibited from discharging ground water or accumulated stormwater that is removed from excavations, trenches, foundations, vaults or other similar points of accumulation, unless such waters are first effectively managed by appropriate controls (e.g., sediment basins or sediment traps, sediment socks, dewatering tanks, tube settlers, weir tanks, or filtration systems). Uncontaminated, non-turbid dewatering water can be discharged without being routed to a control. You must also meet the following requirements for dewatering activities:  Discharge requirements: o No discharging visible floating solids or foam; o Remove oil, grease and other pollutants from dewatering water via an oil-water separator or suitable filtration device (such as a cartridge filter); o Utilize vegetated upland areas of the site, to the extent feasible, to infiltrate dewatering water before discharge. In no case shall waters of the U.S. be considered part of the treatment area; o Implement velocity dissipation devices at all points where dewatering water is discharged; o Haul backwash water away for disposal or return it to the beginning of the treatment process; and o Clean or replace the filter media used in dewatering devices when the pressure differential equals or exceeds the manufacturers' specifications.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 59 of 127
 Treatment chemical restrictions: If you use polymers, flocculants or other chemicals to treat dewatering water, you must comply with the requirements in E.G.4.1.8.
E.G.4.2.10 Pollution prevention requirements.  Prohibited discharges: o Wastewater from washout of concrete; o Wastewater from washout and cleanout of stucco, paint, form release oils, curing compounds, and other materials; o Fuels, oils, or other pollutants used for operation and maintenance of vehicles or equipment; o Soaps, solvents, or detergents used in vehicle or equipment washing; o Toxic or hazardous substances from a spill or other release. o Design and location requirements: Minimize the discharge of pollutants from pollutant sources by:  Minimizing exposure; o Using secondary containment, spill kits, or other equivalent measures; o Locating pollution sources away from surface waters, storm sewer inlets, and drainageways; o Cleaning up spills immediately (do not clean by hosing area down).  Pollution prevention requirements for wash waters: Minimize the discharge of pollutants from equipment and vehicle washing, wheel wash water, and other wash waters. Wash waters must be treated in a sediment basin or alternative control that provides equivalent or better treatment prior to discharge;  Pollution prevention requirements for the storage, handling, and disposal of construction products, materials, and wastes: Minimize the exposure of building materials, building products, construction wastes, trash, landscape materials, fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, detergents, sanitary waste, and other materials present on the site to stormwater. Minimization of exposure is not required in cases where the exposure to stormwater will not result in a discharge of pollutants, or where exposure of a specific material or product poses little risk of stormwater contamination (such as final products and materials intended for outdoor use).
E.G.4.2.11 Site Stabilization requirements for the construction of staging areas for structures and access roads as defined in E.G.3.2(b) (i.e., not applicable to earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation as defined in E.G.3.2(a)). You must comply with the following stabilization requirements, except where the intended function of the site accounts for such disturbed earth (e.g., the area of construction will become actively mined, or the controls implemented at the active mining area effectively control the disturbance):  By no later than the end of the next work day after construction work in an area has stopped permanently or temporarily ("temporarily" means the land will be idle for a period of 14 days or more but earth-disturbing activities will resume in the future), immediately initiate stabilization measures;  If using vegetative measures, by no later than 14 days after initiating stabilization: o Seed or plant the area, and provide temporary cover to protect the planted area; o Once established, vegetation must be uniform (evenly distributed without large bare areas) perennial vegetation, which provides 70 percent or more coverage based on density of native vegetation.  If using non-vegetative stabilization, by no later than 14 days after initiating stabilization:

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 60 of 127
o Install or apply all non-vegetative measures; o Cover all areas of exposed soil. Note: For the purposes of this permit, DEQ will consider any of the following types of activities to constitute the initiation of stabilization: 1. Prepping the soil for vegetative or non-vegetative stabilization; 2. Applying mulch or other nonvegetative product to the exposed area; 3. Seeding or planting the exposed area; 4. Starting any of the activities in #1 ­ 3 on a portion of the area to be stabilized, but not on the entire area; and 5. Finalizing arrangements to have stabilization product fully installed in compliance with the applicable deadline for completing stabilization. Exceptions:  Arid, semi-arid or drought-stricken areas: o Within 14 days of stopping construction work in an area, install any necessary
non-vegetative stabilization measures; o Initiate vegetative stabilization as soon as conditions on the site allow; o Document the schedule that will be followed for initiating and completing
vegetative stabilization; o Cover planted or seeded area with bio or photo degradable erosion controls
designed to prevent erosion without active maintenance.  Sites affected by severe storm events or other unforeseen circumstances:
o Initiate vegetative stabilization as soon conditions on the site allow; o Document the schedule that will be followed for initiating and completing
vegetative stabilization; o Add a suitable interim measures (such as mulch or bark) are in place if 70
percent coverage of vegetation is expected to expand. E.G.4.3 Water Quality-Based Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior
to Active Mining Activities. The following water quality-based limits apply to earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities defined in E.G.3.2(a) and E.G.3.2(b), in addition to the water quality-based limits in Schedule A.4 and Schedule A.5. Stricter requirements apply if your site will discharge to an impaired waters that are listed for turbidity or sedimentation or have an EPA-approved TMDL for sedimentation or turbidity:  More rapid stabilization of exposed areas: Complete initial stabilization activities within 7
days of stopping earth-disturbing work.  More frequent site inspections: Once every 7 days and within 24 hours of a storm event of
0.25 inches or greater. E.G.4.4 Inspection Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active
Mining Activities. The following requirements supersede the inspection requirements in Schedule B and E.G.7 for earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities defined in E.G.3.2(a) and E.G.3.2(b). E.G.4.4.1 Inspection frequency
 At least once every 7 calendar days, or  Once every 14 calendar days and within 24 hours of a storm event of 0.25 inches or
greater. Note:
o Inspections only required during working hours; o Inspections not required during unsafe conditions; and o If you choose to inspect once every 14 days, you must have a method for
measuring rainfall amount on site (either rain gauge or representative weather station)

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 61 of 127
Note: To determine if a storm event of 0.25 inches or greater has occurred on your site, you must either keep a properly maintained rain gauge on your site, or obtain the storm event information from a weather station that is representative of your location. For any day of rainfall during normal business hours that measures 0.25 inches or greater, you must record the total rainfall measured for that day. Note: You are required to specify in your SWPCP which schedule you will be following. Note: "Within 24 hours of the occurrence of a storm event" means that you are required to conduct an inspection within 24 hours once a storm event has produced 0.25 inches, even if the storm event is still continuing. Thus, if you have elected to inspect bi-weekly and there is a storm event at your site that continues for multiple days, and each day of the storm produces 0.25 inches or more of rain, you are required to conduct an inspection within 24 hours of the first day of the storm and within 24 hours after the end of the storm. E.G.4.4.2 Reductions in inspection frequency.  Stabilized areas: You may reduce the frequency of inspections to once per month in
any area of your site where stabilization has occurred pursuant to E.G.4.1.9 or E.G.4.2.11.  Arid, semi-arid, and drought stricken areas: If earth-disturbing activities are occurring during the seasonally dry period or during a period in which drought is predicted to occur, you may reduce inspections to once per month and within 24 hours of a 0.25 inch storm event.  Frozen conditions: You may temporarily suspend or reduce inspections to once per month until thawing conditions occur if frozen conditions are continuous and disturbed areas have been stabilized. For extreme conditions in remote areas, e.g., where transit to the site is perilous/restricted or temperatures are routinely below freezing, you may suspend inspections until the conditions are conducive to safe access, and more frequent inspections can resume. E.G.4.4.3 Areas to be inspected. You must at a minimum inspect the all of the following areas:  Disturbed areas;  Stormwater controls and pollution prevention measures;  Locations where stabilization measures have been implemented;  Material, waste, borrow, or equipment storage and maintenance areas;  Areas where stormwater flows;  Points of discharge. E.G.4.4.4 What to check for during inspections. At a minimum you must check:  Whether all stormwater controls are installed, operational and working as intended;  Whether any new or modified stormwater controls are needed;  For conditions that could lead to a spill or leak;  For visual signs of erosion/sedimentation at points of discharge.  If a discharge is occurring, check:  The quality and characteristics of the discharge;  Whether controls are operating effectively. E.G.4.4.5 Inspection report. Within 24 hours of an inspection, complete a report that includes:  Inspection date;  Name and title of inspector(s);  Summary of inspection findings;  Rainfall amount that triggered the inspection (if applicable);

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 62 of 127
 If it was unsafe to inspect a portion of the site, include documentation of the reason and the location(s);
 Each inspection report must be signed;  Keep a current copy of all reports at the site or at an easily accessible location.
E.G.5 Technology-Based Effluent Limits for Active Mining Activities Note: These requirements do not apply for any discharges from earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining as defined in E.G.3.2(a) or E.G.3.2(b). E.G.5.1 Employee training. (See also Schedule A.1.j) Conduct employee training at least annually at
active and temporarily inactive facilities. E.G.5.2 Stormwater controls. Apart from the control measures you implement to meet Schedule A
technology-based effluent limits, where necessary to minimize pollutant discharges in stormwater, implement the following control measures at your site. The potential pollutants identified in E.G.6.3 shall determine the priority and appropriateness of the control measures selected. For mines subject to dust control requirements under DEQ or county air quality permits, provided the requirements are equivalent, compliance with such air permit dust requirements shall constitute compliance with the dust control effluent limit in Schedule A.1.f. Stormwater diversions: Divert stormwater away from potential pollutant sources through implementation of control measures such as the following, where determined to be feasible including: interceptor or diversion controls (e.g., dikes, swales, curbs, berms); pipe slope drains; subsurface drains; conveyance systems (e.g., channels or gutters, open-top box culverts, and waterbars; rolling dips and road sloping; roadway surface water deflector and culverts); or their equivalents. Capping: When capping is necessary to minimize pollutant discharges in stormwater, identify the source being capped and the material used to construct the cap. Treatment: If treatment of stormwater (e.g., chemical or physical systems, oil - water separators, artificial wetlands) is necessary to protect water quality, describe the type and location of treatment used. Passive and/or active treatment of stormwater runoff is encouraged, where feasible. Treated runoff may be discharged as a stormwater source regulated under this permit provided the discharge is not combined with discharges subject to effluent limitation guidelines for the Ore Mining and Dressing Point Source Category (40 CFR Part 440). E.G.5.3 Discharge testing. Test or evaluate all off-site discharge points covered under this permit for the presence of specific mining-related but unauthorized non-stormwater discharges such as seeps or adit discharges, or discharges subject to effluent limitations guidelines (40 CFR Part 440), mine drainage or process water. Alternatively (if applicable), you may keep a certification with your SWPCP consistent with E.G.6.6.
E.G.6 Additional SWPCP Requirements for Mining Operations Note: The requirements in E.G.6 are not applicable to inactive metal mining facilities. Some requirements
may be already a requirement under Schedule A.7. E.G.6.1 Nature of industrial activities. Briefly document in your SWPCP the mining and associated
activities that can potentially affect the stormwater discharges covered by this permit, including a general description of the location of the site relative to major transportation routes and communities. E.G.6.2 Site map. Document in your SWPCP the locations of the following (as appropriate): mining or milling site boundaries; access and haul roads; outline of the drainage areas of each stormwater outfall within the facility with indications of the types of discharges from the drainage areas; location(s) of all permitted discharges covered under an individual NPDES permit; outdoor equipment storage, fueling, and maintenance areas; materials handling areas; outdoor

manufacturing, outdoor storage, and material disposal areas; outdoor chemicals and explosives storage areas; overburden, materials, soils, or waste storage areas; location of mine drainage (where water leaves mine) or other process water; tailings piles and ponds (including proposed ones); heap leach pads; off-site points of discharge for mine drainage and process water; surface waters; boundary of tributary areas that are subject to effluent limitations guidelines; and location(s) of reclaimed areas. Potential pollutant sources. For each area of the mine or mill site where stormwater discharges associated with industrial activities occur, identify the types of pollutants (e.g., heavy metals, sediment) likely to be present in significant amounts. Consider these factors: the mineralogy of the ore and waste rock (e.g., acid forming); toxicity and quantity of chemicals used, produced, or discharged; the likelihood of contact with stormwater; vegetation of site (if any); and history of significant leaks or spills of toxic or hazardous pollutants. Also include a summary of any existing ore or waste rock or overburden characterization data and test results for potential generation of acid rock. If any new data is acquired due to changes in ore type being mined, update your SWPCP with this information. Documentation of control measures. Document all control measures that you implement consistent with E.G.5.2. If control measures are implemented or planned but are not listed in E.G.5.2 (e.g., substituting a less toxic chemical for a more toxic one), include descriptions of them in your SWPCP. If you are in compliance with dust control requirements under state or county air quality permits, you must include (or summarize, as necessary) what the state or county air quality permit dust control requirements are and how you've achieved compliance with them. Employee training. All employee training(s) must be documented in the SWPCP. Certification of permit coverage for commingled non-stormwater discharges. If you are able, consistent with E.G.5.3 above, to certify that a particular discharge composed of commingled stormwater and non-stormwater is covered under a separate NPDES permit, and that permit subjects the non-stormwater portion to effluent limitations prior to any commingling, retain such certification with your SWPCP. This certification must identify the non-stormwater discharges, the applicable NPDES permit(s), the effluent limitations placed on the nonstormwater discharge by the permit(s), and the points at which the limitations are applied.

E.G.7 Additional Inspection Requirements Except for earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities as defined in E.G.3.2(a) and E.G.3.2(b), which are subject to E.G.4.4, inspect sites at least monthly unless adverse weather conditions make the site inaccessible. See E.G.8.4 for inspection requirements for inactive and unstaffed sites.

E.G.8 Monitoring and Reporting Requirements. (See also Schedule B) Note: There are no monitoring and reporting or impaired waters monitoring requirements for inactive and unstaffed sites. E.G.8.1 Benchmark Monitoring for Active Copper Ore Mining and Dressing Facilities. Table E.G-1
identifies benchmarks that apply to active copper ore mining and dressing facilities. These benchmarks apply to both your primary industrial activity and any co-located industrial activities.

perform benchmark monitoring once in the first year for the parameters listed in Table E.G-2,

and twice annually in all subsequent years of coverage under this permit for any parameters for

which the benchmark has been exceeded. You are also required to conduct analytic monitoring

for the parameters listed in Table E.G-3 in accordance with the requirements in E.G.8.3. DEQ

may also notify you that you must perform additional monitoring to accurately characterize the

quality and quantity of pollutants discharged from your waste rock and overburden piles.

E.G.8.3 Additional Analytic Monitoring Requirements for Discharges From Waste Rock and

Overburden Piles at Active Metal Mining Facilities. In addition to the monitoring required in

E.G.8.2 for discharges from waste rock and overburden piles, you must also conduct monitoring

for additional parameters based on the type of ore you mine at your site. Where a parameter in

Table E.G-3 is the same as a pollutant you are required to monitor for in Table E.G-2 (i.e., for

all of the metals), you must use the corresponding benchmark in Table E.G-2 and you may use

any monitoring results conducted for E.G.8.2 to satisfy the monitoring requirement for that

parameter for E.G.8.3. For radium and uranium, which do not have corresponding benchmarks

in Table E.G-2, there are no applicable benchmarks. The frequency and schedule for monitoring

for these additional parameters is the same as that specified in Table 5.

E.G.8.4

Inactive and Unstaffed Sites ­ Conditional Exemption from No Exposure Requirements for Monthly Visual Assessments and Routine Facility Inspections. As a Sector G facility, if you are seeking to exercise a monitoring or inspection waiver, you are conditionally exempt from the requirement to certify that "there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater" in Schedule B.4.iii of the permit. This exemption is conditioned on the following:  If circumstances change and your facility becomes active and/or staffed, this exception no
longer applies and you must immediately begin complying with the monitoring and inspection requirements; and  DEQ retains the authority to revoke this exemption and/or the monitoring waiver where it is determined that the discharge causes, has a reasonable potential to cause, or contributes to an instream excursion above an applicable water quality standard, including designated uses.

Non-stormwater discharges from these sources are subject to NPDES permitting and may be subject to the effluent limitation guidelines under 40 CFR Part 440. Discharges from overburden/waste rock and overburden/waste rockrelated areas are not subject to 40 CFR Part 440 unless: (1) it drains naturally (or is intentionally diverted) to a point source; and (2) combines with ''mine drainage'' that is otherwise regulated under the Part 440 regulations. For such sources, coverage under this permit would be available if the discharge composed entirely of stormwater does not combine with other sources of mine drainage that are not subject to 40 CFR Part 440, as well as meeting other eligibility criteria contained in Part 1.1 of the permit. Operators bear the initial responsibility for determining the applicable technology-based standard for such discharges.

E.G.9. Termination of Permit Coverage

E.G.9.1 E.G.9.2

Termination of Permit Coverage for Sites Reclaimed After December 17, 1990. A site or a portion of a site that has been released from applicable state or federal reclamation requirements after December 17, 1990, is no longer required to maintain coverage under this permit. If the site or portion of a site reclaimed after December 17, 1990, was not subject to reclamation requirements, the site or portion of the site is no longer required to maintain coverage under this permit if the site or portion of the site has been reclaimed as defined in E.G.3.3. Termination of Permit Coverage for Sites Reclaimed Before December 17, 1990. A site or portion of a site that was released from applicable state or federal reclamation requirements before December 17, 1990, or that was otherwise reclaimed before December 17, 1990, is no longer required to maintain coverage under this permit if the site or portion of the site has been reclaimed. A site or portion of a site is considered to have been reclaimed if: (1) stormwater runoff that comes into contact with raw materials, intermediate byproducts, finished products, and waste products does not have the potential to cause or contribute to violations of state water

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 67 of 127
quality standards, (2) soil disturbing activities related to mining at the sites or portion of the site have been completed, (3) the site or portion of the site has been stabilized to minimize soil erosion, and (4) as appropriate depending on location, size, and the potential to contribute pollutants to stormwater discharges, the site or portion of the site has been revegetated, will be amenable to natural revegetation, or will be left in a condition consistent with the post-mining land use.

Schedule E ­ Sector-Specific Requirements for Industrial Activity Sector H ­ Coal Mines and Coal Mining-Related Facilities
E.H.1 Definitions
The following definitions are not intended to supersede the definitions of active and inactive mining facilities established by 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(iii). E.H.1.1 Mining operations - For this permit, mining operations are grouped into two distinct categories,
with distinct effluent limits and requirements applicable to each: a) earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities); and b) active mining activities, which includes reclamation. "Mining operations" can occur at both inactive mining facilities and temporarily inactive mining facilities. E.H.1.2 Earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities ­ Consists of two classes of earth-disturbing (i.e., clearing, grading and excavation) activities: a. activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation, including: cutting new rights of way (except when related to access road construction); providing access to a mine site for vehicles and equipment (except when related to access road construction); other earth disturbances associated with site preparation activities on any areas where active mining activities have not yet commenced (e.g., for heap leach pads, waste rock facilities, tailings impoundments, wastewater treatment plants); and b. construction of staging areas to prepare for erecting structures such as to house project personnel and equipment, mill buildings, etc., and construction of access roads. Earth-disturbing activities associated with the construction of staging areas and the construction of access roads conducted prior to active mining are considered to be "construction" and have additional technology based effluent limits in E.H.2.2. E.H.1.3 Active mining activities ­ Activities related to the extraction, removal or recovery, and preparation of coal; removal of overburden and waste rock to expose mineable minerals; and site reclamation and closure activities. All such activities occur within the "active mining area." Reclamation involves activities undertaken, in compliance with applicable mined land reclamation requirements, to return the land to an appropriate post-mining contour and land use in order to meet applicable federal and state reclamation requirements. In addition, once earthdisturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities have ceased and all related requirements in E.H.2 have been met, and a well-delineated "active mining area" has been established, all activities (including any clearing, grading, and excavation) that occur within the active mining area are "active mining activities." E.H.1.4 Active mining area ­ A place where work or other activity related to the extraction, removal or recovery of coal is being conducted, except, with respect to surface mines, any area of land on or in which grading has been completed to return the earth to desired contour and reclamation work has begun. Note: Earth-disturbing activities described in the definition in E.H.1.2 that occur on areas outside the active mining area (e.g., for expansion of the mine into undeveloped territory) are considered "earth-disturbing conducted prior to active mining activities", and must comply with the requirements in E.H.2. E.H.1.5 Inactive coal mining facility ­ A site or portion of a site where coal mining and/or milling occurred in the past but there are no active mining operations occurring as defined above, and where the inactive portion is not covered by an active mining permit issued by the applicable state or federal agency. An inactive coal mining facility has an identifiable owner / operator. Sites where mining claims are being maintained prior to disturbances associated with the extraction, beneficiation, or processing of mined materials and sites where minimal activities

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 69 of 127

E.H.1.6

are undertaken for the sole purpose of maintaining a mining claim are not considered either active or inactive mining facilities and do not require an NPDES industrial stormwater permit. Temporarily inactive coal mining facility ­ A site or portion of a site where coal mining and/or milling occurred in the past but currently are not being actively undertaken, and the facility is covered by an active mining permit issued by the applicable state or federal agency.

E.H.2 Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities
Stormwater discharges from earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities (defined in E.H.1.2) are covered under this permit. For such earth-disturbing activities, you must comply with all applicable requirements in technology-based effluent limits in E.H.3 and Schedule A, the inspection and monitoring requirements in Schedule B and in E.H.5 and E.H.6 Authorized discharges from areas where earth-disturbing activities have ceased and stabilization as specified in E.H.2.1.9 or E.H.2.2.11, where appropriate, has been completed (stabilization is not required for areas where active mining activities will occur), are no longer subject to the E.H.2 requirements. At such time, authorized discharges become subject to all other applicable requirements in the permit, including the technology based effluent limits in limits in E.H.3 and Schedule A, the inspection and monitoring requirements in Schedule B and in E.H.5 and E.H.6.

E.H.2.1 Technology-Based Effluent Limits Applicable to All Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities. The following technology-based effluent limits apply to authorized discharges from all earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities defined in E.H.1.2(a) and E.H.1.2(b). These limits supersede the technology-based effluent limits listed in Schedule A.
E.H.2.1.1 Erosion and sediment control installation requirements.
 By the time construction activities commence, install and make operational downgradient sediment controls, unless this timeframe is infeasible. If infeasible you must install and make such controls operational as soon as practicable or as soon as site conditions permit.
 All other stormwater controls described in the SWPCP must be installed and made operational as soon as conditions on each portion of the site allows.
E.H.2.1.2 Erosion and sediment control maintenance requirements. You must:  Ensure that all erosion and sediment controls remain in effective operating condition.  Wherever you determine that a stormwater control needs maintenance to continue operating effectively, initiate efforts to fix the problem immediately after its discovery, and complete such work by the end of the next work day.  When a stormwater control must be replaced or significantly repaired, complete the work within 7 days, unless infeasible. If 7 days is infeasible, you must complete the installation or repair as soon practicable.
E.H.2.1.3 Perimeter controls. You must:
 Install sediment controls along those perimeter areas of your disturbed area that will receive stormwater, except where site conditions prevent the use of such controls (in which case, maximize their installation to the extent practicable).
 Remove sediment before it accumulates to one-half of the above-ground height of any perimeter control.
E.H.2.1.4 Sediment track-out. For construction vehicles and equipment exiting the site directly
onto paved roads, you must:

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 70 of 127
 Use appropriate stabilization techniques to minimize sediment track-out from vehicles and equipment prior to exit;
 Use additional controls to remove sediment from vehicle and equipment tires prior to exit, where necessary;
 Remove sediment that is tracked out onto paved roads by end of the work day. Note: DEQ recognizes that some fine grains may remain visible on the surfaces of offsite streets, other paved areas, and sidewalks even after you have implemented sediment removal practices. Such "staining" is not a violation of E.H.2.1.4. E.H.2.1.5 Soil or sediment stockpiles. You must:  Minimize erosion of stockpiles from stormwater and wind via temporary cover, if
feasible.  Prevent up-slope stormwater flows from causing erosion of stockpiles (e.g., by
diverting flows around the stockpile).  Minimize sediment from stormwater that runs off of stockpiles, using sediment
controls (e.g., a sediment barrier or downslope sediment control). E.H.2.1.6 Sediment basins. If you intend to install a sediment basin to treat stormwater from
your earth-disturbing activities, you must:  Provide storage for either (1) the 2-year, 24-hour storm, or (2) 3,600 cubic feet per
acre drained.  Prevent erosion of (1) basin embankments using stabilization controls (e.g.,
erosion control blankets), and (2) the inlet and outlet points of the basin using erosion controls and velocity dissipation devices. E.H.2.1.7 Minimize dust. You must minimize the generation of dust through the appropriate application of water or other dust suppression techniques that minimize pollutants being discharged into surface waters. E.H.2.1.8 Restrictions on use of treatment chemicals. If you intend to use sediment treatment chemicals at your site, you are subject to the following minimum requirements:  Use conventional erosion and sediment controls prior to and after application of chemicals;  Select chemicals suited to soil type, and expected turbidity, pH, flow rate;  Minimize the discharge risk from stored chemicals;  Comply with state/local requirements;  Use chemicals in accordance with good engineering practices and specifications of chemical supplier;  Ensure proper training;  Provide proper SWPCP documentation. If you plan to use cationic treatment chemicals (as defined in Appendix A), you are ineligible for coverage under this permit, unless you notify your applicable DEQ regional office or agent in advance and the DEQ regional office or agent authorizes coverage under this permit after you have included appropriate controls and implementation procedures designed to ensure that your use of cationic treatment chemicals will not lead to a violation of water quality standards. E.H.2.1.9 Site stabilization requirements for earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation as defined in E.H.1.2(a) (i.e., not applicable to construction of staging areas for structures and access roads as defined in E.H.1.2(b)). You must comply with the following stabilization requirements except where the intended function of the site accounts for such disturbed earth (e.g., the earth disturbances will

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 71 of 127
become actively mined, or the controls implemented at the active mining area effectively control the disturbance):  Temporary stabilization of disturbed areas. Stabilization measures must be
initiated immediately in portions of the site where earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation (as defined in E.H.1.2(a)) have temporarily ceased, but in no case more than 14 days after such activities have temporarily ceased. In arid, semi-arid, and drought-stricken areas, or in areas subject to snow or freezing conditions, where initiating perennial vegetative stabilization measures is not possible within 14 days after earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation has temporarily ceased, temporary vegetative stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as practicable. Until temporary vegetative stabilization is achieved, interim measures such as erosion control blankets with an appropriate seed base and tackifiers must be employed. In areas of the site where earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation have permanently ceased prior to active mining, temporary stabilization measures must be implemented to minimize mobilization of sediment or other pollutants until active mining activities commence.
 Final stabilization of disturbed areas. Stabilization measures must be initiated immediately where earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation (as defined in E.H.1.2(a)) have permanently ceased, but in no case more than 14 days after the earth-disturbing activities have permanently ceased. In arid, semi-arid, and drought-stricken areas, or in areas subject to snow or freezing conditions, where initiating perennial vegetative stabilization measures is not possible within 14 days after earth-disturbing activities have permanently ceased, final vegetative stabilization measures must be initiated as soon as possible. Until final stabilization is achieved, temporary stabilization measures, such as erosion control blankets with an appropriate seed base and tackifiers, must be used.
E.H.2.2 Additional Technology-Based Effluent Limits Applicable Only to the Construction of Staging Areas for Structures and Access Roads. The following technology-based effluent limits apply to authorized discharges from earth-disturbing activities associated with the construction of staging areas and the construction of access roads, as defined in E.H.1.2(b). These limits supersede the technology-based limits listed in Schedule A and E.H.3. These limits do not apply to earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation (as defined in E.H.1.2(a)). E.H.2.2.1 Area of disturbance. You must minimize the amount of soil exposed during construction activities. E.H.2.2.2 Erosion and sediment control design requirements. You must:  Design, install and maintain effective erosion and sediment controls to minimize the discharge of pollutants from construction activities. Account for the following factors in designing your erosion and sediment controls: o The expected amount, frequency, intensity and duration of precipitation; o The nature of stormwater runoff and run-on at the site, including factors such as impervious surfaces, slopes and site drainage features; o The range of soil particle sizes expected to be present on the site.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 72 of 127
 Direct discharges from your stormwater controls to vegetated areas of your site to increase sediment removal and maximize stormwater infiltration, including any natural buffers, unless infeasible. Use velocity dissipation devices if necessary to prevent erosion when directing stormwater to vegetated areas.
 If any stormwater flow becomes or will be channelized at your site, you must design erosion and sediment controls to control both peak flowrates and total stormwater volume to minimize channel and streambank erosion and scour in the immediate vicinity of discharge points.
 If you install stormwater conveyance channels, they must be designed to avoid unstabilized areas on the site and to reduce erosion, unless infeasible. In addition, you must minimize erosion of channels and their embankments, outlets, adjacent streambanks, slopes, and downstream waters during discharge conditions through the use of erosion controls and velocity dissipation devices within and along the length of any constructed stormwater conveyance channel, and at any outlet to provide a non-erosive flow velocity.
E.H.2.2.3 Natural Buffers. For any stormwater discharges from earth-disturbing activities within 50 feet of a water of the U.S., you must comply with one of the following compliance alternatives: 1. Maintain a 50-foot undisturbed natural buffer between earth-disturbing activities and the water of the U.S.; or 2. Provide an undisturbed natural buffer that is less than 50 feet, permit registrant must implement one or more of the BMPs listed below to control and treat sediment and turbidity:  Compost berms, compost blankets, or compost socks;  Erosion control mats;  Takifiers used in combination with perimeter sediment controls;  Approved water treatment by electro-coagulation, flocculation, or filtration; and/or  Other substantially equivalent sediment or turbidity control measures approved by DEQ or agent. 3. Ensure all discharges are treated by control measures prior to entering the natural buffer. 4. Delineate and clearly mark off all natural buffers. There are exceptions when buffer requirements do not apply:  The natural buffer has already been eliminated by preexisting development disturbances;  The disturbance is for a water-dependent structure or earth-disturbing approved under a CWA section 404 permit.
E.H.2.2.4 Soil or sediment stockpiles. In addition to the requirements in E.H.2.1.5, you must locate any piles outside of any natural buffers established under E.H.2.2.3.
E.H.2.2.5 Sediment basins. In addition to the requirements in E.H.2.1.6, you must locate sediment basins outside of any surface waters and any natural buffers established under E.H.2.2.3, and you must utilize outlet structures that withdraw water from the surface, unless infeasible.
E.H.2.2.6 Native topsoil preservation. You must preserve native topsoil removed during clearing, grading, or excavation, unless infeasible. Store topsoil in a manner that will maximize its use in reclamation or final vegetative stabilization (e.g., by keeping the

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 73 of 127
topsoil stabilized with seed or similar measures). This requirement does not apply if the intended function of the disturbed area dictates that topsoil be disturbed or removed. E.H.2.2.7 Steep slopes. You must minimize the disturbance of steep slopes. The permit does not prevent or prohibit disturbance on steep slopes. Depending on site conditions and needs, disturbance on steep slopes may be necessary (e.g., a road cut in mountainous terrain; for grading steep slopes prior to erecting the mine office). Where steep slope disturbances are necessary, you can minimize the disturbances to steep slopes through the implementation of a number of standard erosion and sediment control practices, such as by phasing disturbances in these areas and using stabilization practices specifically for steep grades. E.H.2.2.8 Soil compaction. Where final vegetative stabilization will occur or where infiltration practices will be installed, you must either restrict vehicle/ equipment use in these areas to avoid soil compaction or use soil conditioning techniques to support vegetative growth. Minimizing soil compaction is not required where compacted soil is integral to the functionality of the site. E.H.2.2.9 Dewatering Practices. You are prohibited from discharging ground water or accumulated stormwater that is removed from excavations, trenches, foundations, vaults or other similar points of accumulation, unless such waters are first effectively managed by appropriate controls (e.g., sediment basins or sediment traps, sediment socks, dewatering tanks, tube settlers, weir tanks, or filtration systems). Uncontaminated, non-turbid dewatering water can be discharged without being routed to a control. You must also meet the following requirements for dewatering activities:  Discharge requirements:
o No discharging visible floating solids or foam; o Remove oil, grease and other pollutants from dewatering water via an oil-water
separator or suitable filtration device (such as a cartridge filter); o Utilize vegetated upland areas of the site, to the extent feasible, to infiltrate
dewatering water before discharge. In no case shall waters of the U.S. be considered part of the treatment area; o Implement velocity dissipation devices at all points where dewatering water is discharged; o Haul backwash water away for disposal or return it to the beginning of the treatment process; and o Clean or replace the filter media used in dewatering devices when the pressure differential equals or exceeds the manufacturers' specifications.  Treatment chemical restrictions: If you use polymers, flocculants or other chemicals to treat dewatering water, you must comply with the requirements in E.H.2.1.8. E.H.2.2.10 Pollution prevention requirements.  Prohibited discharges: o Wastewater from washout of concrete; o Wastewater from washout and cleanout of stucco, paint, form release oils, curing compounds, and other materials;

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 74 of 127
o Fuels, oils, or other pollutants used for operation and maintenance of vehicles or equipment;
o Soaps, solvents, or detergents used in vehicle or equipment washing; o Toxic or hazardous substances from a spill or other release.  Design and location requirements: Minimize the discharge of pollutants from
pollutant sources by: o Minimizing exposure; o Using secondary containment, spill kits, or other equivalent measures; o Locating pollution sources away from surface waters, storm sewer inlets, and
drainageways; o Cleaning up spills immediately (do not clean by hosing area down).  Pollution prevention requirements for wash waters: Minimize the discharge of pollutants from equipment and vehicle washing, wheel wash water, and other wash waters. Wash waters must be treated in a sediment basin or alternative control that provides equivalent or better treatment prior to discharge;  Pollution prevention requirements for the storage, handling, and disposal of construction products, materials, and wastes: Minimize the exposure of building materials, building products, construction wastes, trash, landscape materials, fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, detergents, sanitary waste, and other materials present on the site to stormwater. Minimization of exposure is not required in cases where the exposure to stormwater will not result in a discharge of pollutants, or where exposure of a specific material or product poses little risk of stormwater contamination (such as final products and materials intended for outdoor use). E.H.2.2.11 Site Stabilization requirements for the construction of staging areas for structures and access roads as defined in E.H.1.2(b) (i.e., not applicable to earth-disturbing activities performed for purposes of mine site preparation as defined in E.H.1.2(a)). You must comply with the following stabilization requirements, except where the intended function of the site accounts for such disturbed earth (e.g., the area of construction will become actively mined, or the controls implemented at the active mining area effectively control the disturbance):
 By no later than the end of the next work day after construction work in an area has stopped permanently or temporarily ("temporarily" means the land will be idle for a period of 14 days or more but earth-disturbing activities will resume in the future), immediately initiate stabilization measures;
 If using vegetative measures, by no later than 14 days after initiating stabilization: o Seed or plant the area, and provide temporary cover to protect the planted area; o Once established, vegetation must be uniform (evenly distributed without large bare areas) perennial vegetation, which provides 70 percent or more coverage based on density of native vegetation.  If using non-vegetative stabilization, by no later than 14 days after initiating stabilization: o Install or apply all non-vegetative measures; o Cover all areas of exposed soil. Note: For the purposes of this permit, DEQ will consider any of the following types of activities to constitute the initiation of stabilization: 1. Prepping the soil for vegetative or non-vegetative stabilization; 2. Applying mulch or other non-vegetative

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 75 of 127

product to the exposed area; 3. Seeding or planting the exposed area; 4. Starting any of the activities in #1 ­ 3 on a portion of the area to be stabilized, but not on the entire area; and 5. Finalizing arrangements to have stabilization product fully installed in compliance with the applicable deadline for completing stabilization. Exceptions:  Arid, semi-arid or drought-stricken areas:
o Within 14 days of stopping construction work in an area, install any necessary non-vegetative stabilization measures;
o Initiate vegetative stabilization as soon as conditions on the site allow; o Document the schedule that will be followed for initiating and completing
vegetative stabilization; o Cover planted or seeded area with bio or photo degradable erosion controls
designed to prevent erosion without active maintenance.  Sites affected by severe storm events or other unforeseen circumstances:
o Initiate vegetative stabilization as soon conditions on the site allow; o Document the schedule that will be followed for initiating and completing
vegetative stabilization; o Add a suitable interim measures (such as mulch or bark) are in place if 70
percent coverage of vegetation is expected to expand.

E.H.2.3

Water Quality-Based Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities. The following water quality-based limits apply to earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities defined in E.H.1.2(a) and E.H.1.2(b), in addition to the water qualitybased limits Schedule A.4 and A.5. Stricter requirements apply if your site will discharge to an impaired waters that are listed for turbidity or sedimentation or have an EPA-approved TMDL for sedimentation or turbidity:  More rapid stabilization of exposed areas: Complete initial stabilization activities within 7
days of stopping earth-disturbing work.  More frequent site inspections: Once every 7 days and within 24 hours of a storm event of
0.25 inches or greater.

E.H.2.4 Inspection Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities. The following requirements supersede the inspections requirements in Schedule B and E.H.7 of the permit for earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities defined in E.H.1.2(a) and E.H.1.2(b). E.H.2.4.1 Inspection Frequency
 At least once every 7 calendar days, or  Once every 14 calendar days and within 24 hours of a storm event of 0.25 inches
or greater. Note:
o Inspections only required during working hours; o Inspections not required during unsafe conditions; and o If you choose to inspect once every 14 days, you must have a method for
measuring rainfall amount on site (either rain gauge or representative weather station)

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 76 of 127
Note: To determine if a storm event of 0.25 inches or greater has occurred on your site, you must either keep a properly maintained rain gauge on your site, or obtain the storm event information from a weather station that is representative of your location. For any day of rainfall during normal business hours that measures 0.25 inches or greater, you must record the total rainfall measured for that. Note: You are required to specify in your SWPCP which schedule you will be following. Note: "Within 24 hours of the occurrence of a storm event" means that you are required to conduct an inspection within 24 hours once a storm event has produced 0.25 inches, even if the storm event is still continuing. Thus, if you have elected to inspect bi-weekly in and there is a storm event at your site that continues for multiple days, and each day of the storm produces 0.25 inches or more of rain, you are required to conduct an inspection within 24 hours of the first day of the storm and within 24 hours after the end of the storm. E.H.2.4.2 Reductions in Inspection Frequency
 Stabilized areas: You may reduce the frequency of inspections to once per month in any area of your site where stabilization has occurred pursuant to E.H.2.1.9 or E.H.2.2.11.
 Arid, semi-arid, and drought stricken areas: If earth-disturbing activities are occurring during the seasonally dry period or during a period in which drought is predicted to occur, you may reduce inspections to once per month and within 24 hours of a 0.25 inch storm event.
 Frozen conditions: You may temporarily suspend or reduce inspections to once per month until thawing conditions occur if frozen conditions are continuous and disturbed areas have been stabilized. For extreme conditions in remote areas, e.g., where transit to the site is perilous/restricted or temperatures are routinely below freezing, you may suspend inspections until the conditions are conducive to safe access, and more frequent inspections can resume.
E.H.2.4.3 Areas to be Inspected. You must at a minimum inspect the following areas:  Disturbed areas;  Stormwater controls and pollution prevention measures;  Locations where stabilization measures have been implemented;  Material, waste, borrow, or equipment storage and maintenance areas;  Areas where stormwater flows;  Points of discharge.
E.H.2.4.4 What to Check for During Inspections. At a minimum you must check:  Whether all stormwater controls are installed, operational, and working as intended;  Whether any new or modified stormwater controls are needed;  For conditions that could lead to a spill or leak;  For visual signs of erosion/sedimentation at points of discharge. If a discharge is occurring:  The quality and characteristics of the discharge;  Whether controls are operating effectively.
E.H.2.4.5 Inspection Report. Within 24 hours of an inspection, complete a report that includes:  Inspection date;  Name and title of inspector(s);  Summary of inspection findings;

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 77 of 127

reason and the location(s);  Each inspection report must be signed;  Keep a current copy of all reports at the site or at an easily accessible location.

E.H.2.5

Cessation of Requirements Applicable to Earth-Disturbing Activities Conducted Prior to Active Mining Activities. The requirements in E.H.2 no longer apply for any earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining activities as defined in E.H.1.2(a) or E.H.1.2(b) where: 1. Earth-disturbing activities have ceased; and 2. Stabilization has been met consistent with E.H.2.1.9 or E.H.2.2.11 (not required for areas
where active mining activities will occur).

E.H.3 Technology-Based Effluent Limits for Active Mining Activities Note: These requirements do not apply for any discharges from earth-disturbing activities conducted prior to active mining as defined in E.H.1.2(a) or E.H.1.2(b). E.H.3.1 Good Housekeeping Measures. As part of your good housekeeping program, in order to
minimize discharges of pollutants in stormwater, implement control measures such as the following, where determined to be feasible including: using sweepers and covered storage; watering haul roads to minimize dust generation; and conserving vegetation to minimize erosion. For mines subject to dust control requirements under state or county air quality permits, provided the requirements are equivalent, compliance with such air permit dust requirements shall constitute compliance with the dust control effluent limit in Schedule A.1.f. E.H.3.2 Preventive Maintenance. Perform inspections or other equivalent measures of storage tanks and pressure lines of fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluid, and slurry to prevent leaks due to deterioration or faulty connections.

E.H.4 Additional SWPCP Requirements for Mining Operations Note: The requirements in E.H.6 are not applicable to inactive coal mining facilities. Some requirements may be already a requirement under Schedule A.7.
E.H.4.1 Other Applicable Regulations. Most active coal mining-related areas (SIC Codes 1221-1241) are subject to sediment and erosion control regulations of the U.S. Office of Surface Mining (OSM) that enforces the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act (SMCRA). OSM has granted authority to most coal-producing states to implement SMCRA through State SMCRA regulations. All SMCRA requirements regarding control of stormwater-related pollutant discharges must be addressed and then documented with the SWPCP (directly or by reference).
E.H.4.2 Site Map. Document in your SWPCP where any of the following may be exposed to precipitation or surface runoff: haul and access roads; railroad spurs, sliding, and internal hauling lines; conveyor belts, chutes, and aerial tramways; equipment storage and maintenance yards; coal handling buildings and structures; inactive mines and related areas; acidic spoil, refuse, or unreclaimed disturbed areas; and liquid storage tanks containing pollutants such as caustics, hydraulic fluids, and lubricants.
E.H.4.3 Potential Pollutant Sources. Document in your SWPCP the following sources and activities that have potential pollutants associated with them: truck traffic on haul roads and resulting generation of sediment subject to runoff and dust generation; fuel or other liquid storage; pressure lines containing slurry, hydraulic fluid, or other potential harmful liquids; and loading or temporary storage of acidic refuse or spoil.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 78 of 127

E.H.4.4 If you are in compliance with dust control requirements under state or county air quality permits, you must include (or summarize, as necessary) what the state or county air quality permit dust control requirements are and how you've achieved compliance with them.

E.H.5 Additional Inspection Requirements E.H.5.1 Inspections of Active Mining-Related Areas. Except for earth-disturbing activities conducted
prior to active mining activities as defined in E.H.1.2(a) and E.H.1.2(b), which are subject to E.H.2.4, perform routine inspections of active mining areas covered by this permit, corresponding with the inspections as performed by SMCRA inspectors, of all mining-related areas required by SMCRA. Also maintain the records of the SMCRA authority representative. See E.H.8.1 for inspection requirements for inactive and unstaffed sties. E.H.5.2 Sediment and Erosion Control. As indicated in E.H.4.1, SMCRA requirements regarding sediment and erosion control measures must be complied with for those areas subject to SMCRA authority, including inspection requirements. E.H.5.3 Routine Site Inspections. Your inspection program must include inspections for pollutants entering the drainage system from activities located on or near coal mining-related areas. Among the areas to be inspected are haul and access roads; railroad spurs, sliding, and internal hauling lines; conveyor belts, chutes, and aerial tramways; equipment storage and maintenance yards; coal handling buildings and structures; and inactive mines and related areas.

E.H.6 Sector-Specific Benchmarks Table E.H-1 identifies benchmarks that apply to the specific subsectors of Sector H.

Inactive and Unstaffed Sites ­ Conditional Exemption from No Exposure Requirements for Monthly Visual Assessments and Routine Facility Inspections. As a Sector H facility, if you are seeking to exercise a monitoring or inspection waiver, you are conditionally exempt from the requirement to certify that "there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater" in Schedule B.4.iii of the permit. This exemption is conditioned on the following:  If circumstances change and your facility becomes active and/or staffed, this exception no
longer applies and you must immediately begin complying with the monitoring and inspection requirements; and  DEQ retains the authority to revoke this exemption and/or the monitoring waiver where it is determined that the discharge causes, has a reasonable potential to cause, or contributes to an instream excursion above an applicable water quality standard, including designated uses. Subject to the two conditions above, if your facility is inactive and unstaffed, you are waived from the requirement to conduct routine facility inspections, monthly visual assessments, and benchmark and impaired waters monitoring. You are encouraged to inspect your site more

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 79 of 127

frequently where you have reason to believe that severe weather or natural disasters may have damaged control measures or increased discharges.

E.H.7 E.H.7.1

Termination of Permit Coverage Termination of Permit Coverage for Sites Reclaimed After December 17, 1990. A site or a portion of a site that has been released from applicable state or federal reclamation requirements after December 17, 1990, is no longer required to maintain coverage under this permit. If the site or portion of a site reclaimed after December 17, 1990, was not subject to reclamation requirements, the site or portion of the site is no longer required to maintain coverage under this permit if the site or portion of the site has been reclaimed. Termination of Permit Coverage for Sites Reclaimed Before December 17, 1990. A site or portion of a site that was released from applicable state or federal reclamation requirements before December 17, 1990, or that was otherwise reclaimed before December 17, 1990, is no longer required to maintain coverage under this permit if the site or portion of the site has been reclaimed. A site or portion of a site is considered to have been reclaimed if: (1) stormwater runoff that comes into contact with raw materials, intermediate byproducts, finished products, and waste products does not have the potential to cause or contribute to violations of state water quality standards, (2) soil disturbing activities related to mining at the sites or portion of the site have been completed, (3) the site or portion of the site has been stabilized to minimize soil erosion, and (4) as appropriate depending on location, size, and the potential to contribute pollutants to stormwater discharges, the site or portion of the site has been revegetated, will be amenable to natural revegetation, or will be left in a condition consistent with the post-mining land use.

SECTION B. OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF POLLUTION CONTROLS B1. Proper Operation and Maintenance
The permittee must at all times properly operate and maintain all facilities and systems of treatment and control (and related appurtenances) that are installed or used by the permittee to achieve compliance with the conditions of this permit. Proper operation and maintenance also includes adequate laboratory controls and appropriate quality assurance procedures. This provision requires the operation of back-up or auxiliary facilities or similar systems that are installed by a permittee only when the operation is necessary to achieve compliance with the conditions of the permit.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 120 of 127
B2. Need to Halt or Reduce Activity Not a Defense For industrial or commercial facilities, upon reduction, loss, or failure of the treatment facility, the permittee must, to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with its permit, control production or all discharges or both until the facility is restored or an alternative method of treatment is provided. This requirement applies, for example, when the primary source of power of the treatment facility fails or is reduced or lost. It is not a defense for a permittee in an enforcement action that it would have been necessary to halt or reduce the permitted activity in order to maintain compliance with the conditions of this permit.
B3. Bypass of Treatment Facilities a. Definitions (1) "Bypass" means intentional diversion of waste streams from any portion of the treatment facility. The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, provided the diversion is to allow essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of paragraphs b and c of this section. (2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources that can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production. b. Prohibition of bypass. (1) Bypass is prohibited and DEQ may take enforcement action against a permittee for bypass unless: i. Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe property damage; ii. There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes, or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass that occurred during normal periods of equipment downtime or preventative maintenance; and iii. The permittee submitted notices and requests as required under General Condition B3.c. (2) DEQ may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse effects and any alternatives to bypassing, if DEQ determines that it will meet the three conditions listed above in General Condition B3.b.(1). c. Notice and request for bypass. (1) Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, a written notice must be submitted to DEQ at least ten days before the date of the bypass. (2) Unanticipated bypass. The permittee must submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in General Condition D5.
B4. Upset a. Definition. "Upset" means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operation error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventative maintenance, or careless or improper operation.

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 121 of 127
b. Effect of an upset. An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance with such technology-based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of General Condition B4.c are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset. A permittee who wishes to establish the affirmative defense of upset must demonstrate, through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or other relevant evidence that: (1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the causes(s) of the upset; (2) The permitted facility was at the time being properly operated; (3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in General Condition D5, hereof (24-hour notice); and (4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under General Condition A3 hereof.
d. Burden of proof. In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an upset has the burden of proof.
B5. Treatment of Single Operational Upset For purposes of this permit, a single operational upset that leads to simultaneous violations of more than one pollutant parameter will be treated as a single violation. A single operational upset is an exceptional incident that causes simultaneous, unintentional, unknowing (not the result of a knowing act or omission), temporary noncompliance with more than one federal Clean Water Act effluent discharge pollutant parameter. A single operational upset does not include federal Clean Water Act violations involving discharge without a NPDES permit or noncompliance to the extent caused by improperly designed or inadequate treatment facilities. Each day of a single operational upset is a violation.
B6. Overflows from Wastewater Conveyance Systems and Associated Pump Stations a. Definition. "Overflow" means any spill, release or diversion of sewage including: (1) An overflow that results in a discharge to waters of the United States; and (2) An overflow of wastewater, including a wastewater backup into a building (other than a backup caused solely by a blockage or other malfunction in a privately owned sewer or building lateral), even if that overflow does not reach waters of the United States. b. Reporting required. All overflows must be reported orally to DEQ within 24 hours from the time the permittee becomes aware of the overflow. Reporting procedures are described in more detail in General Condition D5.
B7. Public Notification of Effluent Violation or Overflow If effluent limitations specified in this permit are exceeded or an overflow occurs that threatens public health, the permittee must take such steps as are necessary to alert the public, health agencies and other affected entities (for example, public water systems) about the extent and nature of the discharge in accordance with the notification procedures developed under General Condition B8. Such steps may include, but are not limited to, posting of the river at access points and other places, news releases, and paid announcements on radio and television.
B8. Emergency Response and Public Notification Plan The permittee must develop and implement an emergency response and public notification plan that identifies measures to protect public health from overflows, bypasses, or upsets that may endanger public health. At a minimum the plan must include mechanisms to:

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 122 of 127
a. Ensure that the permittee is aware (to the greatest extent possible) of such events; b. Ensure notification of appropriate personnel and ensure that they are immediately dispatched for
investigation and response; c. Ensure immediate notification to the public, health agencies, and other affected public entities
(including public water systems). The overflow response plan must identify the public health and other officials who will receive immediate notification; d. Ensure that appropriate personnel are aware of and follow the plan and are appropriately trained; e. Provide emergency operations; and f. Ensure that DEQ is notified of the public notification steps taken.
B9. Removed Substances Solids, sludges, filter backwash, or other pollutants removed in the course of treatment or control of wastewaters must be disposed of in such a manner as to prevent any pollutant from such materials from entering waters of the state, causing nuisance conditions, or creating a public health hazard.
SECTION C. MONITORING AND RECORDS C1. Representative Sampling
Sampling and measurements taken as required herein must be representative of the volume and nature of the monitored discharge. All samples must be taken at the monitoring points specified in this permit, and must be taken, unless otherwise specified, before the effluent joins or is diluted by any other waste stream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points must not be changed without notification to and the approval of DEQ. Samples must be collected in accordance with requirements in 40 CFR part 122.21 and 40 CFR part 403 Appendix E.
C2. Flow Measurements Appropriate flow measurement devices and methods consistent with accepted scientific practices must be selected and used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of measurements of the volume of monitored discharges. The devices must be installed, calibrated and maintained to insure that the accuracy of the measurements is consistent with the accepted capability of that type of device. Devices selected must be capable of measuring flows with a maximum deviation of less than ± 10 percent from true discharge rates throughout the range of expected discharge volumes.
C3. Monitoring Procedures Monitoring must be conducted according to test procedures approved under 40 CFR part 136 or, in the case of sludge (biosolids) use and disposal, approved under 40 CFR part 503 unless other test procedures have been specified in this permit.
For monitoring of recycled water with no discharge to waters of the state, monitoring must be conducted according to test procedures approved under 40 CFR part 136 or as specified in the most recent edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater unless other test procedures have been specified in this permit or approved in writing by DEQ.
C4. Penalties for Tampering The federal Clean Water Act provides that any person who falsifies, tampers with, or knowingly renders inaccurate any monitoring device or method required to be maintained under this permit may, upon conviction, be punished by a fine of not more than $10,000 per violation, imprisonment for not more than two years, or both. If a conviction of a person is for a violation committed after a

Permit Number: 1200-Z Effective: July 1, 2017 Expiration: June 30, 2022 Page 123 of 127
first conviction of such person, punishment is a fine not more than $20,000 per day of violation, or by imprisonment of not more than four years, or both.
C5. Reporting of Monitoring Results Monitoring results must be summarized each month on a Discharge Monitoring Report form approved by DEQ. The reports must be submitted monthly and are to be mailed, delivered or otherwise transmitted by the 15th day of the following month unless specifically approved otherwise in Schedule B of this permit.
C6. Additional Monitoring by the Permittee If the permittee monitors any pollutant more frequently than required by this permit, using test procedures approved under 40 CFR part 136 or, in the case of sludge (biosolids) use and disposal, approved under 40 CFR part 503, or as specified in this permit, the results of this monitoring must be included in the calculation and reporting of the data submitted in the Discharge Monitoring Report. Such increased frequency must also be indicated. For a pollutant parameter that may be sampled more than once per day (for example, total residual chlorine), only the average daily value must be recorded unless otherwise specified in this permit.
C7. Averaging of Measurements Calculations for all limitations that require averaging of measurements must utilize an arithmetic mean, except for bacteria which must be averaged as specified in this permit.
C8. Retention of Records Records of monitoring information required by this permit related to the permittee's sewage sludge use and disposal activities must be retained for a period of at least 5 years (or longer as required by 40 CFR part 503). Records of all monitoring information including all calibration and maintenance records, all original strip chart recordings for continuous monitoring instrumentation, copies of all reports required by this permit and records of all data used to complete the application for this permit must be retained for a period of at least 3 years from the date of the sample, measurement, report, or application. This period may be extended by request of DEQ at any time.
C9. Records Contents Records of monitoring information must include: a. The date, exact place, time, and methods of sampling or measurements; b. The individual(s) who performed the sampling or measurements; c. The date(s) analyses were performed; d. The individual(s) who performed the analyses; e.

Appendix C ­ Illicit Discharge and Elimination Procedure WORK INSTRUCTION:
ILLICIT DISCHARGE DETECTION AND ELIMINATION PROGRAM

Work Instruction #WI-POR-WTR-011 Date: 01/30/2017 Owner: Water Quality Manager
Page: 1 of 10 Rev. #1

On March 11, 1992, the Port Commission adopted Ordinance No. 361, which provides the Port with the legal authority to prohibit illicit discharge into the storm sewer system owned or operated by the Port. Section 4 of the Ordinance requires written permission from the Port before connection to a Port storm sewer. Section 5 of the Ordinance authorizes the Port to inspect the land and storm sewers for violations of the Ordinance or applicable law that governs the conveyance or disposal of stormwater. The Ordinance allows the Port to control the contribution of pollutants into storm sewers owned or operated by the Port; the quality of stormwater discharged from the sites of industrial activity on land owned by the Port; and the discharge into storm sewers owned or operated by the Port of pollutants from spills, dumping, or the disposal of materials other than stormwater.

1.0 SCOPE This work instruction applies to all Port-owned properties at the Hillsboro Airport

2.0 DEFINITIONS
2.1 Illicit Discharge - any discharge to a MS4 that is not composed entirely of stormwater, except as specifically exempted by the MS4 permit or authorized pursuant to an National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit.
2.2 Putrid odor ­ odor that is associated with decomposing garbage, sewage, or \other non-chemical waste, characteristically sweet, rotten, or indicative of human waste.
3.0 RESPONSIBLITY
3.1 The Water Resources Program Manager is responsible for overall coordination of the Port-wide MS4 Permit, the Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Program and the annual reporting to the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ).
3.2 Environmental Operations is responsible for illicit discharge inspections, investigations and documentation of the Port-owned oufalls at Swan Island, Rivergate, and all marine terminals.
3.3 Environmental Operations is responsible for illicit discharge inspections, investigations and documentation of the Port-owned oufalls at Portland International Airport (PDX), Portland International Center (PIC), Hillsboro Airport (HIO) the Troutdale Airport (TTD), the marine Terminal 2 (T2) Terminal 4 (T4) and Terminal 6 (T6).
4.0 PROCEDURE
Inspections at all Port-owned outfalls will be conducted between June and August of each year. The inspector will observe each stormwater outfall as identified on a current Port of Portland Storm Sewer System maintainable drawing. At least 72 hours (3 days)

Appendix C ­ Illicit Discharge and Elimination Procedure WORK INSTRUCTION:
ILLICIT DISCHARGE DETECTION AND ELIMINATION PROGRAM

Work Instruction #WI-POR-WTR-011 Date: 01/30/2017 Owner: Water Quality Manager
Page: 2 of 10 Rev. #1

of dry weather should precede the inspections. This procedure will also apply to any investigation of an illicit discharge to the Port's MS4 or storm sewer system.

4.1 Field Equipment
The following field equipment items are needed to conduct illicit discharge inspections: · Illicit Discharge Inspection and investigation Forms · Infrastructure Maps · pH meter · Thermometer · Multi-probe for pH, Temp., Conductivity (if applicable) · Sampling scoop/bucket · Cellular phone · Pens · Gloves · Digital Camera · Required safety equipment (hard hats, ropes, safety vest, life vest, etc.) · Laboratory sample coolers containing ice, sample containers, preservatives and chain
of custody forms · Emergency response phone list

4.2 Documentation
The Illicit Discharge Inspection and Investigation Form will be used to guide the inspector through all of the necessary observations. Any potential illicit discharge must be documented using this form. Additionally, each outfall will be photo documented to supplement the information captured on the form.

The following is required to be submitted to the Water Resources Environmental Program Manager by September 1 of each year to be included in the MS4 Permit annual report:
 A summary of the investigations: indicate the number of outfalls inspected, the number of outfalls that were discharging (include outfall ID number), and a description of follow-up actions and resolutions;
 Copies of the Illicit Discharge Inspection and Investigation forms;  Copies of laboratory reports; and  Labeled photographs of outfalls.

4.3 Procedures if a Dry-Weather Flow is Observed (or if an illicit discharge is suspected)
If a dry-weather flow is observed at an outfall, the inspector will proceed with the investigation of the discharge immediately. The Illicit Discharge Inspection & Investigation Form is completed as part of the investigation. Even if the source is

Appendix C ­ Illicit Discharge and Elimination Procedure WORK INSTRUCTION:
ILLICIT DISCHARGE DETECTION AND ELIMINATION PROGRAM

Work Instruction #WI-POR-WTR-011 Date: 01/30/2017 Owner: Water Quality Manager
Page: 3 of 10 Rev. #1

known when a discharge is discovered, the investigation form is completed as a record of the information and the corrective actions.

If possible, to determine the source of a potential illicit discharge, the inspector will track the flow as far as possible along the conveyance away from the outfall or point of observation referring to the storm sewer system map of the drainage basin. At a point where the storm system intersects the conveyance containing the flow and both conveyances have a flow, both conveyances are then tracked. This will be done by driving the basin at the time of discharge, or if access is not available at that time, further investigation of the site will be conducted at a later date when access has been secured. Follow up investigations will occur when a discharge is present.

The inspector must determine if the flow is from a permitted non-stormwater discharge as specified in the MS4 Permit. This characterization is based on the following regulatory list of allowable or permissible discharges identified below (40 CFR 122.26 (d) (2) (IV) (B) (l)):

· Water line flushing

· Irrigation water

· Landscape irrigation

· Springs

· Diverted stream flows

· Water from crawl space pumps

· Rising ground waters

· Footing drains

· Uncontaminated ground water

· Lawn watering

· Infiltration to separate storm sewers

· Uncontaminated pumped groundwater

· Individual residential car washing · Discharges from potable water sources

· Flows from riparian habitats & wetlands · Foundation drains

· Dechlorinated swimming pool · Street wash water discharges

· Air conditioning condensation

Based on this list, the inspector will determine if the discharge is permissible. If the source is not permissible, the investigator will ensure that the Port responds within the provisions of Ordinance 361 to terminate the flow. All action taken will be documented on an Illicit Discharge Inspection/Investigation Form. A Notice of Non-Compliance or Notice of Violation will be issued depending on the circumstances. *If the flow appears to be a spill of significant material, the inspector will activate the emergency spill response by calling the contacts on the emergency phone list.

Investigations into dry-weather flows or other reported illicit discharges will follow the IDDE Action Levels flow chart (attached). In addition, the following techniques may also be implemented to track sources of discharges: tenant and employee interviews, dye testing, conveyance videotaping and smoke testing. If the outfall is submerged and access is available, the inspector shall track back up the conveyance system away from the outfall to a point where an observation can be made. The point of observation may be a manhole, inlet grate, catch basin, curb grate, etc.

Appendix C ­ Illicit Discharge and Elimination Procedure WORK INSTRUCTION:
ILLICIT DISCHARGE DETECTION AND ELIMINATION PROGRAM

Work Instruction #WI-POR-WTR-011 Date: 01/30/2017 Owner: Water Quality Manager
Page: 4 of 10 Rev. #1

Once the source of an illicit discharge is determined, the Port's response timing is dictated by specific MS4 Permit requirements as follows. The inspector must conduct an initial evaluation of the feasibility to eliminate the discharge, within 5 working days. If it is determined that the elimination of the illicit discharge will take more than 15 working days due to technical, logistical or other reasonable issues, an action plan to eliminate the illicit discharge in an expeditious manner must be developed. The action plan must be completed in 20 working days of determining the source of an illicit discharge. The action plan, response procedures, response plan or similar document developed for each illicit discharge must include an as soon as is practicable timeframe for elimination of the discharge.
The MS4 Permit also requires timely notification be made under the following circumstances. If a suspected illicit discharge is detected that originates from another jurisdiction's MS4 they must be notified within one day. Likewise, if an illicit discharge originating in the Port's storm sewer system flows into another jurisdiction's system, that municipality must be notified of the situation within one day. Contact the City of Portland's Bureau of Environmental Services Industrial Stormwater Program Supervisor to report discharges on properties not owned by the Port or for tenants holding stormwater permits issued by the City. Forward all documentation regarding City notifications to the Water Resources Program Manager.
4.4 Sampling and Analysis
Certain water quality parameters can serve as indicators of the likely presence or absence of illicit discharges. Some can be measured in the field. However, if the inspector deems it necessary to collect water samples for laboratory analysis (based on the attached IDDE Action Level Flow Chart or the inspector's knowledge of the industrial activities in the drainage area) to aid in determining the source of the potential illicit discharge, samples shall be collected. Sample collection, transport, and analysis will be conducted following the requirements of 40 CFR 136 (Guidelines Establishing Test Procedures for the Analysis of Pollutants).
Field analysis will be conducted using accurate and efficient hand held meters or test kits following established QA/QC procedures. The results from the field screen must be documented on the Illicit Discharge Inspection and Investigation Form. If samples are taken for analysis by an Oregon-certified laboratory, they shall be labeled with the time, date, sample location and outfall identification number and prepared for shipment to ensure sample integrity is maintained. A chain of custody form shall be completed for every sample shipped. The laboratory must conduct all analysis according to requirements outlined in 40 CFR 136. If requested, the laboratory will provide the inspector with sample containers, preservatives, and coolers prior to the field observations. The collected samples will be chemically preserved according to EPA approved methods. The samples shall be immediately placed in a laboratory cooler with

Pavement Deicing Best Management Practices (BMPs) for Port and Tenants
1.0 General BMPs
1.1 Proper Storage of Anti-icing and Deicing Materials
Pavement deicing and anti-icing materials must be stored in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements. All permanent, aboveground deicing and anti-icing fluid storage tanks at the airport must be double-walled or equipped with secondary containment and undergo routine inspections. To prevent contamination of stormwater, tenant must use appropriate spill response techniques per their established spill response plan.
1.2 Weather Forecasting
The Port and tenants will obtain existing and forecasted weather conditions for T6 and existing conditions, to determine the timing and selection of anti-icing or deicing materials application. The overall goal is to contribute the lowest possible pollutant loading consistent with maintaining safe operating conditions.
1.3 Education and Training of Employees and Contractors
It is the responsibility of each tenant to develop and implement an employee and contractor education and training program about environmental requirements and proper application associated with the use of anti-icing and deicing materials, ensure awareness of best management practices and spill response procedures, and to inform and train personnel who are directly involved in anti-icing or deicing operations regarding required best management practices and operational procedures.
The training programs include (but are not limited to) the following:
· The requirements of the 1200-Z National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit
· Tenant best management practices
· Tenant operational procedures and requirements
· Tenant spill response plan and procedures

2.0 Pavement BMPs
2.1 Selection of Pavement Anti-icing and Deicing Materials
Tenants must select pavement anti-icing and deicing materials that provide the lowest pollutant loading. Sodium formate (solid) and potassium acetate (liquid) are recommended for pavement deicing because both products have a lower pollutant loading compared to other deicers. Anhydrous sodium acetate (solid) may be used as a backup product if sodium formate is temporarily unavailable.
2.2 Minimize Pavement Anti-icing and Deicing Area
Tenants and Port maintenance must apply deicing and anti-icing materials to the smallest possible area, consistent with safe operations, to minimize pollutant loading.
2.3 Recordkeeping
Each tenant is responsible for monitoring the types and quantities of airside pavement deicing and anti-icing materials used and purchased during the year. Tenants must also submit their usage to the Port annually. T6 Maintenance monitors the types and quantities of airside pavement deicing and antiicing materials used and purchased by the Port during.
3.0 Summary
To reduce pollutant loads to surface waters, tenants will implement BMPs, during the winter season as summarized below.

General

Proper storage
Forecasting of antiicing and deicing weather

All permanent, aboveground ADF storage tanks will be double-walled or equipped with secondary containment.
Aboveground tanks will be routinely inspected.
Spill response plans will be followed to minimize stormwater impacts.
Weather forecasting will be used to minimize deicing material usage while maintaining safe operating conditions in compliance with applicable regulations.

Education and training Pavement Material selection
Reduce application amounts

Tenants will conduct permit, best management practice and spill management training for their employees and contractors.
Select materials that provide the lowest pollutant loading conditions consistent with safe flight. Liquid potassium acetate and solid sodium formate will be used airside, unless sodium formate supply limitations warrant use of hydrated sodium acetate.
Flow-controlled application equipment will be used to maximize material application and reduce volume of applied material.
