Municipal Stormwater Management and NPDES Permit Compliance
San Mateo Countywide Water Pollution Prevention Program (SMCWPPP)
-
Since 1993, EOA has assisted the San Mateo Countywide Water Pollution Prevention Program (SMCWPPP) and its 21 municipalities to obtain coverage under and comply with their municipal stormwater NPDES permit, including most recently the Municipal Regional Permit. EOA has provided comprehensive technical and regulatory assistance with all of the major components of municipal stormwater compliance, including municipal operations, facility inspections, illicit discharge controls, development and construction controls, green stormwater infrastructure, pesticide controls, trash controls, water quality monitoring, and pollutant of concern planning, studies, and control measure implementation.
EOA has also assisted the SMCWPPP Program Manager and staff with all facets of countywide stormwater program management, including overall program planning, scoping and budgeting, and obtaining funding (e.g., preparing grant applications). We have also helped facilitate SMCWPPP’s Technical Advisory Committee and Stormwater Committee, which provide overall technical and policy direction to the program, and most of SMCWPPP’s various technical subcommittees and workgroups. EOA has conducted many training workshops for municipal staff that address key permit provisions and has developed numerous guidance documents to help San Mateo County municipalities comply with NPDES permit requirements. Each year EOA staff has prepared SMCWPPP’s Annual Report and assisted individual municipalities in San Mateo County prepare their Annual Reports. Finally, EOA has assisted SMCWPPP develop permit application packages for each re-issuance of the municipal stormwater NPDES permit. We have also provided SMCWPPP and its Permittees with regulatory liaison with the San Francisco Bay Area Regional Water Board, and have assisted SMCWPPP to coordinate and collaborate with other Bay Area countywide stormwater programs through the Bay Area Stormwater Management Agencies Association (BASMAA) and the California Stormwater Quality Association (CASQA).
