III. Reasons for Recommendations and Background:
The San Francisco Bay and Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Boards require
municipalities in the Contra Costa Clean Water Program to conduct stormwater inspections
at commercial and industrial facilities. These inspections are mandated by the Joint Municipal
.National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Stormwater Permit issued to the
municipalities. The inspections are intended to radically reduce or eliminate polluted runoff
from commercial and industrial facilities.
Eleven (11) municipalities have requested two (2) sanitary districts to conduct their
stormwater inspections. This unique arrangement between municipalities and sanitary
districts creates a comprehensive approach that will address polluted runoff from industries,
commercial/retail businesses and residents. Sanitary district pretreatment inspectors will
conduct the inspections. The Second Amendment authorizes the Flood Control District to
enter into an agreement, on behalf of the municipalities, with the sanitation districts for
inspection services. All inspection activities will be funded from stormwater utility assessment
revenues collected for the municipalities.
IV. Consequences of Negative Action:
The San Francisco Bay and Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Boards may find
the municipalities in the Contra Costa Clean Water Program out of compliance with the Joint
Municipal NPDES Stormwater Permit if inspections are not conducted. The Regional Boards
have the authority to fine municipalities up to$10,000 per day and $10 per gallon of discharge
for non-compliance with the permit.
