1.0 OVERVIEW
1.1 INTRODUCTION

This combined Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), Best

Management Practices (BMP), and Groundwater Protection Plan (GPP) covers
the operations construction of the Fairmont Municipal Airport, Obstruction
Removal, Improve Runway Safety Areas, and Construct Parallel Taxiway
Projects. The plan has been developed, as required, under West Virginia’s
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Program for storm
water discharges and in accordance with good engineering practices. This
SWPPP describes this airport and its operations, identifies potential sources of
storm water pollution at this airport, recommends appropriate Best Management
Practices (BMPs) or pollution control measures to reduce the discharge of
pollutants in storm water runoff, details of groundwater protection activities and,
provides for periodic review.

The SWPPP becomes effective at the start of construction, anticipated to start in

August 2006, and will be terminated at the end of construction.

1.2 OBJECTIVES

The goal of the storm water permit program is to improve the quality of surface
waters by reducing the amount of pollutants potentially contained in the storm
water runoff being discharged.

The objective of this SWPPP is three-fold:

1. To identify potential sources of pollution at the construction site.

2. To describe best management practices (BMPs) which are to be

used by the contractors.

3. To provide other elements such as, but not limited to, a facility
inspection program, site compliance evaluation program, record
keeping, and reporting program that will help the contractor comply
with the terms and conditions of their storm water discharge permit.

2.0 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION COMMITTEE

The Storm Water Pollution Prevention Committee is responsible for developing,
implementing, maintaining, and revising this SWPPP. The members of the team
are familiar with the construction activities involved in these projects.

The member(s) of the team and their primary responsibilities (i.e. implementing,
maintaining, record keeping, submitting reports, conducting inspections,
employee training, testing for non-storm water discharges, signing the required
certifications) are as follows:

potential to contaminate soil or ground water. If the potential contaminate listed is not
kept on site, then enter “NA” in all three columns. If this site maintains additional items
with the potential to contaminate ground water list the additional items in the spaces
provided at the end of this list. The storage location should be indicated on a site map.

3.2 PROCEDURES DESIGNED TO PROTECT GROUND WATER AT

CONSTRUCTION SITES
(47 CSR 58.4.11.2)
Contractor to verify the following table providing the practices and procedures which
will be in place at the construction site to prevent contamination of ground water by the
potential contaminates. Equipment cleaning, maintenance activities, pipelines, and
sumps and tanks which contain potential contaminants must be addressed. Examples
of Groundwater Protection Practices can be found in 47 CSR 58.4. et seq.

raw materials, include information on the
product, or wastes storage of on-site materials.
A dumpster may be used on-site
for disposal of any F.O.D
(Foreign Object Debris) that the
Contractor produces during
construction.
It is recommended that storage
areas be secured either in a
trailer, lock and key or some
equivalent means.
This will help prevent
vandalism, spills and
unwanted use of the materials.

SWPPP, BMP, GPP 06-1800-0037
 “No wastes will be used for deicing, filling, or for any other use at this facility
unless approved in writing by the Chief of the Office of Water Resources or
provided for in an existing regulation or permit.”

3.6 Site Information

To be considered a Groundwater Protection Plan (GPP) which can be

implemented; this document must be completed in full. If a portion of this plan
does not apply to your facility it should be marked “Not Applicable” or “NA”. If
more space is needed for any section, attach additional sheets to this document.
Number any additions with the appropriate section number (For example: 47
CSR 58.4.11.1).

This GPP must be available on site for review at all times. WV DEP or engineer
may require modification of a GPP to assure adequate protection of ground
water.

If a facility does not have adequate ground water protection practices in place
they may submit a compliance schedule for implementation of the necessary
practices. This compliance schedule would allow them time (no longer than
thirty days) to implement the necessary practices.
