Stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs)
The General Permit requires SLAC to describe stormwater management
controls appropriate for the facility. BMPs are part of the SLAC
stormwater management controls and are employed to reduce stormwater
contamination (and the potential for contamination).
BMPs can be simple and low cost (such as keeping work areas clean
and free of debris), or costly (such as installing structural
controls). Most BMPs are preventive and have been previously
implemented at SLAC as prudent practices or as requirements of ESH
regulations.
The BMPs minimize the impact of activities that potentially
contribute contaminants to stormwater discharges. Associate
Directors are responsible for ensuring that BMPs are followed within
their respective divisions.
