Bmp Plan Form PDF Details

For individuals and businesses venturing into small noncoal/nonmetallic mining, navigating regulatory requirements is essential for successful project completion and environmental compliance. The Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) provides a structured pathway to assist in this endeavor through the Small Noncoal/Nonmetallic Mining Best Management Practices Plan (BMP Plan). This plan, which includes a comprehensive template, serves as a vital tool for ensuring that mining activities are conducted in a manner that respects and protects natural resources. The BMP Plan covers various crucial aspects, including erosion control, sediment control, stormwater management, site management practices, and pollution prevention measures tailored to the specific conditions of your project site. With the support of the Alabama Handbook for Erosion Control, Sediment Control, and Stormwater Management on Construction Sites and Urban Areas, this template guides the development of a BMP Plan that aligns with both the general permit requirements and site-specific challenges. This approach is designed to facilitate not only regulatory compliance but also the implementation of effective Best Management Practices (BMPs) that minimize environmental impacts. Furthermore, the template is adaptable, allowing customization to address the unique aspects of each project, and includes sections for site evaluation, control measures, housekeeping practices, inspections, recordkeeping, training, and final stabilization, amongst others. By meticulously following the provided guidelines and modifying the BMP Plan as required, operators can effectively manage their mining activities and contribute to the stewardship of Alabama's natural resources.

Small Noncoal/Nonmetallic Mining Best Management Practices Plan (BMP Plan)

Instructions

To help you develop the narrative section of your small mining site BMP Plan, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) has created this electronic BMP Plan template. The template is designed to help guide you through the BMP Plan development process and help ensure that your BMP Plan addresses all the necessary elements for a complete application. You should use this template (available at www.adem.alabama.gov) with the Alabama Handbook for Erosion Control, Sediment Control and Stormwater Management on Construction Sites and Urban Areas March 2009 Edition. The handbook is available at http://swcc.alabama.gov/pages/erosion_control.aspx?sm=b_b.

You are required by Part III.D of the Small Noncoal/Nonmetallic Mining General Permit ALG890000 to develop a BMP Plan which reflects the requirements of the permit, as well as the conditions at your site. This template is intended to be used as a guide in development of your site’s BMP Plan, thus it should be customized for your site.

Using the BMP Plan Template

Each section of this template includes “instructions” and space for project information. You should read the instructions for each section before you complete that section. This template is available in Word format if requested. The header can be customized to allow you to insert your own company logo. Some sections may require only a brief description while others may require several pages of explanation.

Prior to printing and submitting your BMP Plan, delete all instructions.

Tips for completing the BMP Plan Template

Modify this BMP Plan template so that it addresses the requirements of the Small Noncoal/Nonmetallic Mining General Permit and meets the needs of your project. Consider adding permit citations in the BMP Plan when you address a specific permit requirement(s).

In accordance with Part III.A.7 of the permit, the Permittee is required to implement measures or requirements to achieve the pollutant reductions consistent with a TMDL finalized or approved by EPA. Applicable TMDLs are located and/or can be accessed at http://www.adem.alabama.gov/programs/water/approvedTMDLs.htm

In accordance with Part III.A.8 of the permit, the Permittee is required to implement measures or requirements to ensure that discharges will not cause or contribute to the listed impairment for those waters listed on the most recently approved 303(d) list of impaired waters. Applicable 303(d) listed waters can be accessed at http://www.adem.alabama.gov/programs/water/303d.cnt

In accordance with Part III.A.9.(a) of the permit, sediment control measures, erosion control measures, and other site management practices must be properly selected based on site-specific conditions, and must meet or exceed the technical standards outlined in the Alabama Handbook and the site-specific BMP Plan prepared in accordance with Part III.D of the permit.

In accordance with Part III.A.9.(b) of the permit, sediment control measures, erosion control measures, and other site management practices shall be designed and maintained to minimize erosion and maximize sediment removal resulting from storm events up to and including a 2-year, 24-hour storm event.

1.4Receiving Waters

Instructions:

List the waterbody(s) that would receive stormwater from your site, including streams, rivers, lakes, coastal waters, and wetlands. Describe each as clearly as possible, such as Mill Creek, an unnamed tributary to Mill Creek, and so on.

Indicate the location of all waters, including wetlands, on the site map.

Note any stream crossings, if applicable.

Where applicable, list the storm sewer system or drainage system that stormwater from your site could discharge to and the waterbody(s) that it ultimately discharges to.

If any of the waterbodies above are Outstanding Alabama Waters (OAW) or Outstanding National Resource Waters (ONRW), or Treasured Alabama Lake (TAL), your BMP Plan should specifically include all reasonable measures to ensure the discharges from your site will not interfere with the waterbody(ies) designated use. For a list of OAW, ONRW and TAL waterbodies, see ADEM Admin. Code r. 335-6-11-.02 at the following link: http://www.adem.state.al.us/alEnviroRegLaws/files/Division6Vol1.pdf
