Compliance requirements for unpermitted construction activity. <br /> Owners and operators of construction activities required to have a construction storm <br /> water permit under this part that fail to submit a permit application or subdivision <br /> registration under subpart 2 shall comply with the storm water discharge design <br /> requirements, construction activity requirements, and the requirements of <br /> Appendix A in the construction stormwater permit as incorporated by reference in <br /> part 7090.0060. <br /> 2. NPDES/SDS PERMIT PART III. STORM WATER DISCHARGE DESIGN <br /> REQUIREMENTS. <br /> The owner must develop a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP). The <br /> SWPPP shall be completed prior to submitting any permit application and prior to <br /> conducting any construction activity by any required Permittee(s). <br /> During the inspection performed on May 28, 2008, by SWCD staff, Bob Peterson(site contact), who <br /> identified himself as project owner, informed staff that he did not have a Storm Water Pollution <br /> Prevention Plan(SWPPP)on site and had no knowledge that a SWPPP plan had been completed. <br /> 3. NPDES/SDS PERMIT PART IV. CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITY REQUIREMENTS. <br /> C.2 SEDIMENT CONTROL PRACTICES <br /> Sediment control practices must be established on all down gradient perimeters before any <br /> upgradient land disturbing activities begin. These practices shall remain in place until final <br /> stabilization has been established in accordance with Part N.G. <br /> On May 28, 2008, SWCD staff observed the site contact using a bobcat to push tree debris into a burn <br /> pile which was downgradient of exposed soils. SWCD staff observed that the Regulated Party failed to <br /> install downgradient perimeter control along the west edge of the land disturbing activity. <br /> CORRECTIVE ACTIONS <br /> In order to address the alleged violations described in this letter, the Regulated Party is to respond <br /> accordingly: <br /> 1. Within ten days after receipt of this letter, the Regulated Party shall submit an Application for <br /> General Stormwater Permit for Construction Activity (MN R 10000 1) for the land disturbing activity <br /> that has occurred. The application and SWPPP should incorporate all aspects of the project, current <br /> and proposed future work on the Site. <br /> 2. Within ten days of receipt of this letter,the Regulated Party shall ensure the Site is in compliance <br /> with all the terms and conditions of the NPDES/SDS permit. This may include but is not limited to <br /> the installation of perimeter control, erosion and sediment control best management practices <br /> (BMPs), installation of temporary or permanent cover on exposed soils and the conducting of the <br /> required weekly inspections. <br />
