INTRODUCTION

A Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) must be prepared for storm water discharges from construction activities that will potentially impact waters of the United States. The SWPPP is designed to identify and address potential sources of pollution that are reasonably expected to affect the quality of discharges from the construction site, including onsite material storage areas, overburden and stockpiles of soil, borrow areas, equipment staging areas, vehicle repair areas, and fueling areas used by owners or operators of the permitted project. The SWPPP must describe the implementation of pollution prevention practices and ensure that they will effectively reduce or eliminate the pollutants entering storm water discharges associated with construction activity. The SWPPP also serves as a useful tool to ensure compliance with the terms and conditions of MDEQ Large Construction Storm Water General Permit – NPDES Permit MSR10 (Appendix A) relating to discharges of storm water from large construction activities.

The permit authorizes discharges of storm water from

construction activities as defined in WPC-1. To keep the SWPPP up to date and ensure proper modifications of the plan are performed as required by the permit, worksheets in Appendix B are provided. The worksheets will be completed and become part of the plan as modifications to the plan or construction activity occur. As required at sites where the total area of soil disturbance (excavation area, soil stockpile area and equipment staging area) is greater than or equal to five acres, a large construction SWPPP to seek coverage under the storm water general permit has been developed for the site prior to commencement of planned activities. The SWPPP will be implemented for the duration of the project and this document will be maintained on site.

GENERAL SITE AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION

The Chemfax, Inc. Site (“Site”) is located in Gulfport, Harrison County, Mississippi, and is situated on 11 acres of land located to the east of Three Rivers Road. Creosote Road is to the South, U.S. Highway 49 is to the west, and County Barn Road is to the north (Figures 1 and 2). The Area of Interest (AOI) is limited to approximately 5 acres in the central portion of the Site that was the location of previous Site activities and current contamination. The Site has approximate coordinates of Latitude 30° 25’ 45’’ North, Longitude 89° 05’ 21’’ West.

The

concrete slab of the former abandoned Alpine Masonite facility is also situated on the Site. 2.1

Description of the Nature of the Construction Activity, Potential Pollutants Sources The basic construction activities described in this SWPPP are as follows: •

Site preparation activities, including demarcation of AOI and work areas, improvements to roads and implementation of storm water pollution controls.

•

Concrete slab removal.

•

Soil segregation and stockpiling, waste transportation and disposal.

•

Soil excavation and backfilling activities.

•

Post-removal activities, including metes-and-bounds surveys, and Site cleanup and restoration.

Potential pollutants from construction activities include incidental oil leaks from equipment operation, maintenance and fueling; sediment loading from surface scarification; storm water run-off from soil stockpiles; and tracking of sediments from equipment leaving the site that eventually enter storm water run-off.

Some construction materials, concrete debris,

contaminated soil, and backfill soil may be stockpiled on-site. Soil stockpiles will be removed by the end of each work day to the extent practical.

Any additional materials such as fuel,

lubricants, portable tanks, cement, or other potential pollutant source not mentioned herein will be listed on the worksheets included in Appendix B. Equipment maintenance may be performed on-site. If equipment maintenance is performed, fluids will be drained into appropriate containers and disposed of properly offsite or re-used if possible.

January 2013

The Site will be segregated into two sections (north and south of a newly constructed temporary haul road) and each section will be separated into appropriate work zones (exclusion, contamination reduction, and support) by means of temporary construction fencing and/or barrier tape. Soil excavation (and backfilling with clean soil) at the AOI will be conducted to a maximum depth of six (6) feet below ground surface (bgs) in order to remove contaminated soils.

It is anticipated that all stockpiles will be located over areas planned for eventual

excavation. Sidewalls of the excavations will be sloped at an angle (1:1 to 3:1, depending upon the geotechnical soil properties) sufficient to provide stability. Bracing using sheet pile retaining walls or other means is not anticipated. However, additional soil stabilization measures will be implemented when Site activities have ceased on any portion of the Site and will not be resumed for fourteen (14) days or more. These additional measures will be implemented within seven (7) calender days of when Site activities ceased. It is anticipated that 14,900 cubic yards of soil will be removed from the Site. No phasing of the excavation areas will occur, as work will be continuous. The excavated material will be staged within the boundaries of the AOI. Following excavation, the area will be sampled and analyzed before being backfilled with clean fill in lifts no greater than 12 inches per lift. Soil excavation will be completed to depths of 0-1 feet, 0-3 feet, and 0-6 feet depending on the extent of contamination. Excavation in the one (1) foot areas will be completed first, followed by excavation of the three (3) foot and then six (6) foot areas. Demarcation of the excavation areas can be seen in Figure 2. Drainage will be designed for the Site and constructed as necessary, however the excavation area is topographically higher than the surrounding areas therefore a natural berm will exist to prevent stormwater runon. All storm water runoff affected by the excavation work should be contained within the excavation areas. Backfilled areas will be restored to natural grade upon completion of soil remediation activities. A six (6) inch layer of topsoil, capable of sustaining vegetative growth, will be placed over the backfilled areas. The topsoil will then be seeded with grass, covered with mulch and watered to promote growth.

January 2013

To the extent practicable, contact of storm water with contaminants of concern (COC)-affected media will be minimized by using certain best management practices (BMPs) such as (but not limited to): tarpaulins to cover contaminated soil stockpiles during rain events, berming around excavations to prevent run-on, installation of silt fences, etc. Despite these precautions, storm water that does enter the excavations will be allowed to naturally percolate through the soils. In the event that storm water or groundwater enters the excavation area to an extent that hinders Site activity, a sump will be constructed in the excavation area and water will be pumped from the sump into a fractionation tank (frac tank) system. Once the sediment has settled to the bottom of the frac tank, water will be pumped to the nearest manhole (located on Three Rivers Road adjacent to the Site) for discharge into the Harrison County Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW). In order to prevent fugitive dust or odor emissions from the staged soils and to prevent soil erosion by storm water runoff, the stockpiled soils will be kept to a minimum, removed at the end of each work day to the extent practical, and covered during heavy rain events. In order to minimize the potential for contamination of other areas due to COC-affected media being tracked outside the AOI, BMPs will be implemented including (but not limited to): construction of a new temporary haul road, effectively separating the Site into two working sections (north and south); using brushes to remove dirt from the tires of trucks and equipment when leaving the work areas; scooping materials spilled during truck loading operations; and pressure washing equipment and vehicles that come into contact with COC-affected soil, as warranted, before removal from the Site. All wastes will be transported off-site for disposal in accordance with Federal and State regulations and manifested properly.

If pre-characterization results indicate that the soils

targeted for disposal are characteristically hazardous, then the trucks will be lined with plastic sheeting prior to loading.

Once loaded, the trucks will be monitored for compliance with

applicable state weight restrictions. Once a truck load is confirmed as legal and optimal based on weight, the truck will be covered with a tarpaulin.

Waste manifests/other necessary

documents will be completed per applicable regulations, and the truck will be allowed leave the Site accompanied by necessary regulatory documentation.

Clean backfill material will be obtained from a commercial source and transported to the Site. If necessary, the imported fill will be stockpiled separately from the soils excavated from the AOI. Based on the workflow, each excavated area will require analytical clearance prior to being backfilled, therefore stockpiles of imported fill will be minimal. In the event that excess clean fill is stockpiled, it will be surrounded by berms, liners and other storm water controls to the extent necessary. After contaminated soils have been loaded for transportation, the stockpile area will be cleaned and all debris will be disposed of properly. Once all field work is complete and the Site has been returned to original grade, protective barriers will be removed with support services and Site roads will be cleaned and repaired as needed. The silt fencing will stay in place until vegetation is re-established. 2.2

Pollution Prevention Team Roles and Responsibilities

EarthCon Consultants, Inc. is deemed to have “operational control” over site activities, while the Attorney General’s Office is deemed to be the “permittee”.

A representative of EarthCon

Consultants, Inc. will sign the SWPPP Certification found in Appendix D as required by the general permit. The pollution prevention team will be comprised of the on-site EarthCon Consultants, Inc. representative overseeing the construction work; a representative of the construction firm performing the concrete removal; and a representative of the construction firm performing the soil excavation, backfilling, and maintenance of BMPs. These individuals are currently identified as:

_______________ EarthCon Consultants, Inc. Principal Engineer

It is the responsibility of the EarthCon Consultants, Inc. Site Manager to perform the routine inspections, ensure day to day operations are compliant with the SWPPP, and maintain the SWPPP in compliance with MDEQ Large Construction Storm Water General Permit – NPDES Permit MSR10. Inspections will be performed at least weekly for a minimum of four inspections per month and additionally as required. The inspection forms will be signed by the EarthCon Site Manager or his duly authorized representative. It is the responsibility of the Site Foreman to alert the EarthCon Site Manager if any deficiencies are noted with any BMPs. If inadequacies are noted during routine inspections, during routine Site operations, or during the periodic visits to the construction areas by members of the pollution prevention team, other knowledgeable individuals, or representatives of city, county, or state governments, the pollution prevention team will resolve these issues in compliance with the general permit and records of the problem and resolution will be documented in the SWPPP. 2.3

Description of Disturbed Acreage

The Chemfax, Inc. Site encompasses a total of approximately 11 acres; however, only five (5) approximated acres of the total property were used in the former production of synthetic hydrocarbon resins and waxes and paraffin blending operations. All construction operations are expected to be located within this five (5) acre area. The remaining six (6) acres of property were not affected by previous operations and are not anticipated to be disturbed for construction purposes. Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Chemfax, Inc.

Data Describing the Soil and Quality of Discharge from the Site

The Site is located in the Coastal Streams Basin at approximately 20 feet above mean sea level (msl). The closest surface water body to the Site is east-southeast-flowing Bernard Bayou, located approximately 700 feet north of the Site (Figure 1). The vicinity of the Site is reportedly underlain by the Citronelle Formation which is composed of quartz sand, chert gravel and lenses, and layers of clay. Underlying the Citronelle Formation in the region is the Miocene-age Graham Ferry Formation. The Graham Ferry Formation typically consists of thick beds of sand or gravel seperated by clay layers.

BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES TO MINIMIZE POLLUTION IN RUNOFF

3.1

Erosion and Sediment Controls

Erosion is not anticipated to be a significant problem during the excavation activities, as the Site is generally flat. Soil disturbance activities involve excavation, therefore the exposed areas will be at a lower elevation than the surrounding landscape. The contractor will berm off surficial flow to prevent storm water, as necessary, from entering the construction area from other areas of the Site. The contractor will perform excavation work from the north and south boundary of the excavation area toward the newly constructed temporary haul road where excavated soil will be immediately loaded into a truck and hauled to an off-site disposal facility. Once the excavation limits are reached in the one (1) foot excavation areas, the areas will be sampled and clearance will be given for the areas to be backfilled. Once backfilling is completed the contractor will move to the three (3) foot excavation area using the same protocol. Three (3) foot excavation areas will be followed by the six (6) foot excavation areas and then the Site will be considered to be stabilized once all excavation and backfilling is completed. Erosion and sediment controls will be designed to retain sediment on-site to the extent practicable with consideration of local topography, soil type, and rainfall. The proposed excavation area is topographically higher than the surrounding areas therefore a natural runon control will exist. All storm water runoff affected by excavation activities should be contained within the excavation area. Structural controls will be designed and utilized to reduce the offsite transport of suspended sediments and other pollutants if it is necessary to pump or channel standing water from the Site. Storm water and infiltrating groundwater in the excavation area will be pumped into a frac tank and suspended sediments will be allowed to settle out before the water is discharged to the Harrison County POTW. Routine weekly inspections of the Site will ensure that structural controls are in place and are functioning correctly. These inspections will be performed and documented by the on-site EarthCon representative. If deficiencies are found in the runoff controls, they will be replaced or modified as soon as practicable after the control is found to be performing inadequately or is damaged.

Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Chemfax, Inc. Site Gulfport, Harrison County, Mississippi

January 2013

Sediment will be removed from sediment traps and silt curtains on an as-needed basis, depending on the results of routine BMP inspections. In no case will the trapped sediment exceed 50% of trap capacity.

If sediment is found to escape past a particular BMP, the

frequency of inspections and/or clean outs or replacement of the BMP will be enhanced. Every attempt will be made to complete restoration of the BMP before the next rain event. Controls will also be implemented to limit, to the extent practicable, off-site transport of litter, construction debris, and construction materials. Tracked sediments from truck or equipment movement along surrounding roads will be removed from paved areas, as necessary, utilizing a sweeper or shovels. Silt fences will be located where runoff potentially flows into storm water channels or into internal Site drainage swales to minimize the suspended sediment load. 3.2

Stabilization Practices

Final stabilization practices will include a combination of: establishment of permanent vegetation, use of vegetative buffer strips, and other similar measures. All excavated areas will receive a topsoil cover which will be seeded and mulched.

The mulch materials will be

generated from trees and large brush that are removed from the proposed excavation area prior to beginning work. The following records shall be maintained and attached to the SWPPP: •

The dates when major grading activities occur;

•

The dates when construction activities temporarily or permanently cease on a portion of the Site; and, The dates when final stabilization measures are initiated.

•

Stabilization measures shall be initiated as soon as practicable in portions of the Site where construction activities have temporarily or permanently ceased, but in no case should appropriate temporary or permanent stabilization occur more than seven (7) days after the construction activity in that portion of the Site has temporarily or permanently ceased. The only exception would be in the unlikely event that the area was precluded by snow cover or frozen ground conditions.

January 2013

3.3

Structural Control Practices

Sediment basins will not be required. At a minimum, silt fences or equivalent sediment controls will be used on all down slope boundaries (and for other boundaries deemed appropriate as dictated by individual Site conditions) of the construction areas. 3.4

Permanent Storm Water Controls

Permanent storm water controls will not be necessary on-site. 3.5

Other Controls

Vehicle tracking of sediments along surrounding roads will be minimized by utilizing a road sweeper or shovels where practical when an accumulation of sediments is observed. No construction materials will be stored on Site other than material and soil stockpiles when necessary. Contaminated soil stockpiles will be covered with plastic if stored in the event of rain to minimize the potential for erosion and sediment loading. If necessary, velocity dissipation devices will be placed at discharge points associated with the length of any outfall channel to provide for a non-erosive flow velocity. 3.6

Maintenance

All erosion and sediment control measures and other protective measures identified in the SWPPP will be maintained in effective operating condition. If inspections determine that BMPs or structural controls are not operating effectively, maintenance of the BMP will be performed or additional BMPs will be added before the next anticipated storm event, or as necessary to maintain the continued effectiveness of storm water controls. If maintenance prior to the next anticipated storm event is impracticable, maintenance will be scheduled and accomplished as soon as practicable. Erosion and sediment controls that have been intentionally disabled, runover, removed, or otherwise rendered ineffective will be replaced or corrected immediately upon discovery. 3.7

Inspections of Controls

Sediment and erosion control measures identified in the SWPPP must be inspected to ensure that they are operating correctly.

Qualified personnel shall inspect disturbed areas of the

construction site that have not been finally stabilized, areas used for storage of materials that are exposed to precipitation, structural control measures, and locations where vehicles enter or exit the Site at least once every seven (7) calendar days, before anticipated storm events Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Chemfax, Inc. Site Gulfport, Harrison County, Mississippi

January 2013

expected to cause a significant amount of runoff, and within 24 hours of the end of a storm event of 0.5 inches or greater. In the event of flooding or other uncontrollable situations which prohibit access to the inspection sites, inspections will be conducted as soon as access is practicable. The SWPPP will be modified based on the results of inspections, as necessary, to better control pollutants in runoff. Revisions to the SWPPP will be completed within seven (7) calendar days following the inspection noting any deficiencies. If existing BMPs are modified, or if additional BMPs are necessary, an implementation schedule will be described in the SWPPP utilizing the attached forms. Wherever possible, those changes will be implemented before the next rainfall event. If implementation before the next anticipated storm event is impracticable, these changes will be implemented as soon as practicable. Sediment must be removed from sediment traps when design capacity has been reduced by 50 percent.

Litter, construction debris, and

construction chemicals exposed to storm water shall be prevented from becoming a pollutant source for storm water discharges. An inspection form summarizing the scope of the inspection, names of personnel making the inspection, and the dates of the inspection will be made as part of the SWPPP.

Major

observations should include: all areas of disturbance; locations of potential discharges of sediment or other pollutants from the Site; locations of BMPs that need to be maintained; locations of BMPs that failed to operate as designed or proved inadequate for a particular location; and locations where additional BMPs are needed. Actions taken as a result of inspections will be described on the attached forms. Reports will identify any incidents of noncompliance. Where a report does not identify any incidents of noncompliance, the report will contain a certification that the facility or Site is in compliance with the SWPPP and the General Permit. The report will be signed by a responsible person or his duly authorized representative (Appendix D). If allowable non-storm water discharges are identified during construction activities, these discharges will be identified on the attached forms and made part of the SWPPP.

Threatened and Endangered Species

A review was conducted of Threatened and Endangered Species that may be potentially affected by the construction activities discussed in this SWPPP. The EPA Record of Decision 2002 indicated that the Atlantic Sturgeon, Red Cockaded Woodpecker, Eastern oysters, and Carolina lilaeopsis are potentially present in the areas around the Site. Using the process of visual examination in an ecological survey done by CDM on March 28, 1999, it was determined that none of the above species were in proximity of the construction site. Therefore, the Site is eligible for Construction General Permit coverage under the Large Construction Storm Water General Permit. 3.9

Registered Historic Places

A review was conducted of registered historic places that may be potentially affected by the construction activities discussed in this SWPPP.

The National Register for Historic Places

indicated that no registered historic places are associated with the construction site in Harrison County, Mississippi.

WORKSHEET 7 RISK IDENTIFICATION AND POTENTIAL POLLUTANT SOURCES NARRATIVE DATE:

11/7/13

The following is a summary of the potential pollutant sources associated with the construction activities at the Chemfax, Inc. Site. 1.

Soil excavation and moving – Soil excavation and moving is an integral part of the construction activities in general. Soil moving is continuous and moves as the areas of excavation expand. Soil excavation and moving will potentially affect primarily the Total Suspended Solids (TSS) loading.

2.

Significant materials storage - The storage of significant materials includes the temporary storage of stockpiled soils used for backfilling excavation. The storage of stockpiled soils will affect TSS while the temporary waste soil storage may affect TSS, BOD, COD, N3, TKN, pH, Total P, Total Iron and a variety of other parameters depending on the make-up of the waste soil.

3.

Vehicle tracking of sediments - Vehicle tracking of sediments is a function of the condition of the haul roads. Trucks that are required to operate on unimproved road surfaces during wet weather will track mud to the entrance/exit and back onto the improved public thoroughfares where there generally are no structural controls to manage excess levels of mud. This mud, regardless of location will increase TSS levels. Similarly, dry weather will generate dust that can contribute to increased TSS levels.

Chemfax, Inc. Site

4.

Vehicle and equipment maintenance areas – Vehicle and equipment maintenance will be limited as these activities can require the storage of significant quantities of chemicals and petroleum products. The storage of these materials and their use in preventative and corrective maintenance has the potential to contribute to storm water pollution through exposure, spills and/or leaks. Typically, pollution from these activities would be noted through increased levels of oils and greases, the presence of heavy metals, ethylene glycol and/or pH changes.

5.

Outdoor vehicle and equipment storage and parking - Storage/parking of equipment and vehicles outdoors can result in fluid leaks in the storage/parking areas that contribute to storm water pollution.

This type of storm water pollution is typically manifested in

elevated levels of oil and grease, heavy metals, organics and fuel constituents such as Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, and Xylene (BTEX). 6.

Refueling points – The refueling area, if needed, has the potential to contribute to storm water pollution due to spills and leaks during refueling, spills due to topping off vehicles, and leaking or defective equipment. This type of storm water pollution will yield elevated levels of BTEX, TPH, heavy metals, oils and greases. Any fuel storage will be kept at minimal levels, inspected daily while in operation and any spills will be addressed immediately to prevent storm water contact.

7.

Equipment and vehicle washing activities - Vehicle and equipment washing is an important part of equipment preventative maintenance. If not properly managed, wash waters have the potential of contributing to storm water pollution. This will be noted through increased levels of heavy metals, solvents, TSS, salts, and oils and greases.

8.

Portable Toilet - Failure or the improper functioning of a portable toilet could result in elevated levels of bacteria, BOD and TSS that could potentially affect storm water run off.
