Town of Hillsborough Stormwater Management Program 17 <br /> Work Plan September 2010 <br /> • Inspections <br /> Inspect permitted construction sites within the Town's jurisdiction to ensure <br /> compliance with approved erosion control plans. As needed, request corrective <br /> actions, issue notice of violations and stop work orders as outlined in Orange <br /> County's Erosion Control Ordinance. <br /> 5. Post-Construction Stormwater Management <br /> The Town's post-construction stormwater program includes four primary <br /> components: new development review, stormwater BMP inspection, education and <br /> outreach, and retro-fit opportunities. Legal agreements are in place allowing Orange <br /> County to implement and enforce the Town of Hillsborough's post-construction <br /> stormwater regulations. <br /> Measurable Goals <br /> • New Development Review <br /> Review and approve proposed new development projects to ensure compliance <br /> with the Town's stormwater post-construction requirements. This includes <br /> addressing nutrient loading since the Town is within an NSW (Neuse Basin and <br /> Falls Lake Watershed). <br /> • BMP Inspections -- <br /> Inspect new structural stormwater BMPs at the time the project is complete to <br /> ensure compliance with approved plans. Map new BMPs using GPS/GIS <br /> technology. Review required annual inspection reports submitted by the BMP the <br /> owner. Conduct follow-up inspections as warranted and provide inspection <br /> reports to owner outlining follow up actions. Issue notice of violations if <br /> warranted. <br /> • Education/Outreach <br /> This portion of the post-construction stormwater management program is part of <br /> the overall education/outreach component described in items 1 and 2 above. <br /> Primarily this includes providing information to businesses, home owner <br /> associations and other stormwater BMP owners about maintenance and <br /> inspection requirements. <br /> • Retro-fit Opportunities <br /> Identify at least one new possible stormwater retro-fit location annually. Evaluate <br /> sites already identified based on land availability, willing ownership, potential for <br /> pollution reductions, and other pertinent variables. Rank these sites and evaluate <br /> grant availability and/or other funding sources to implement retro-fits. Identify <br /> potential partnerships to develop and fund retro-fit projects. <br /> • Regulatory Support <br /> Provide input to the Town's Planning Department regarding regulatory <br /> requirements for the Falls Lake Nutrient Management Strategy rules and the <br /> Page 15 of 27 <br />
