Industrial General Permit Order

Upon resumption of industrial activities at the facility, the Discharger shall,
via SMARTS, confirm and/or update the date the facility’s industrial activities
have resumed. At this time, the Discharger is required to resume all
compliance activities under this General Permit.
The Regional Water Boards may review the submitted information
pertaining to the temporary suspension of industrial activities. Upon review,
the Regional Water Board may request revisions or reject the Discharger’s
request to temporarily suspend monitoring.

4. BMP Descriptions

a. The Discharger shall ensure that the SWPPP identifies each BMP
being implemented at the facility, including:
i. The pollutant(s) that the BMP is designed to reduce or prevent in
industrial storm water discharges;

ii. The frequency, time(s) of day, or conditions when the BMP is
scheduled for implementation;

iii. The locations within each area of industrial activity or industrial
pollutant source where the BMP shall be implemented;

iv. The individual and/or position responsible for implementing the BMP;

v. The procedures, including maintenance procedures, and/or
instructions to implement the BMP effectively;

vi. The equipment and tools necessary to implement the BMP
effectively; and,

vii. The BMPs that may require more frequent visual observations
beyond the monthly visual observations as described in Section
XI.A.1.

b. The Discharger shall ensure that the SWPPP identifies and justifies each
minimum BMP or applicable advanced BMP not being implemented at
the facility because they do not reflect best industry practice considering
technological availability and economic practicability and achievability.

c. The Discharger shall identify any BMPs described in subsection a above
that are implemented in lieu of any of the minimum or applicable
advanced BMPs.

5. BMP Summary Table

The Discharger shall prepare a table summarizing each identified area of
industrial activity, the associated industrial pollutant sources, the industrial
pollutants, and the BMPs being implemented.
