4/23/14 Version <br /> Indian River County List of Industrial "Best Management Practices" (BMPs) <br /> Dust/Particulates and Run-off Pollution Prevention <br /> 1. Use mechanical dust and particulate recovery devices and equipment that incorporate the <br /> best available technology for control of fugitive dust and air emissions. <br /> 2. Limit storing, stockpiling, handling, and processing materials to areas with hard (non- <br /> porous) surfaces such as pavement. <br /> 3. Use sprinkling systems to water driveway and materials storage, stockpile, handling, and <br /> processing areas. <br /> (a) Water frequently to prevent fugitive dust but avoid saturation which can lead to <br /> unnecessary run-off and off-site tracking. <br /> 4. Maintain vegetation ground cover on the site area adjacent to materials storage, stockpile, <br /> handling, and processing areas. <br /> (a) Maintain full and tall windbreaks and landscape buffers around on-site uses that <br /> may produce dust or off-site air emission of particulates. <br /> 5. Limit stockpiles to walled containment areas where possible, and limit stockpile heights to <br /> 25' or lower if required to control dust. <br /> 6. Use curbing and other physical barriers to maintain separate management systems for <br /> process water; run-off from wash-down and stockpile areas; and run-off from other areas of <br /> the overall project site. <br /> 7. Keep sediment pits clean and outfall structures unclogged. <br /> 8. Use control measures identified in the project's Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) to <br /> meet EPA's special numeric stormwater effluent limitations for facilities that store or <br /> process the following: <br /> • logs <br /> • fertilizer (including input raw material and by-products) <br /> • asphalt <br /> • cement <br /> • crushed stone and gravel <br /> • sand <br /> • coal <br /> 9. Use control measures identified in MSGP and NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge <br /> Elimination System)permits to meet Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLS) for run-off. <br /> 10. Promptly perform corrective actions needed for SWPPP (Stormwater Pollution Prevention <br /> Plan) compliance items identified during county, state, or federal inspections. <br /> FACommunity Development\Gifford(WGIC)\2014UPDATE ustrial BMP ppdaatted4-23-1 1ioc <br /> 1 <br /> 8 <br />
