OVERVIEW INTRODUCTION
This storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) covers operations at the Detroit Bulk Storage facility (DBS) in Detroit, Michigan. It has been developed as required by Part I B of Michigans National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) general permit for storm water discharges and in accordance with good engineering practices. This SWPPP describes this facility and its operations, identifies potential sources of storm water pollution at the facility, recommends appropriate best management practices (BMPs) or pollution control measures to reduce the discharge of pollutants in storm water runoff, and provides for periodic review of the SWPPP. The General Storm Water Permit MIS310000 is presented in Appendix A. This SWPPP becomes effective May 6, 2013. The non-structural and structural controls that will be implemented as part of this plan are described in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, respectively. 2.2 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. Identify potential sources of storm water pollution at DBS; 2. Describe BMPs which are to be used at DBS; and 3. Provide other elements such as a facility inspection program, a site compliance evaluation program, and a record keeping and reporting program. 3.0 3.1 FACILITY DESCRIPTION FACILITY LAYOUT
The Detroit Bulk Storage facility (DBS) is a leased portion of a larger parcel of land located at 115 Rosa Parks Blvd, Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. The DBS facility comprises approximately 9-acres of land. The Detroit River flows southwest and adjoins the property to the south. The following table summarizes information at the facility: Building Administrative Office (Mobile Trailer) Square Footage 250 Primary Use office/administrative duties
The remainder of the property consists of asphalt, concrete and brick paved parking areas and
driveways. The location of the site is presented as Figure 1. A Site Map is presented as Figure 2. 3.2 FACILITY OPERATIONS
The DBS facility is utilized as a marine terminal and storage operation for bulk storage of mainly crushed limestone aggregate and petroleum coke (Pet Coke). A mobile office trailer is located near the gated entrance of the DBS facility. No other buildings are present at the site. Petroleum coke and limestone are staged along the western and eastern portions of the site respectively while awaiting ship and/or truck loading and transport. One 1,000-gallon diesel above-ground storage tank (AST) is located on the northeast side of the site near the office trailer. The AST is used for fueling heavy equipment used onsite. 3.3 WATER SUPPLY AND SANITARY DISCHARGE
The mobile office trailer is not connected to the municipal water or sanitary sewer systems. There are no floor drains. Portable sanitation facilities are utilized at the site. 3.4 STORM WATER DISCHARGE
There were formerly three storm water catch basins located at the site. One was located in the asphalt surface on the south side of the Pet Coke storage pile. Two additional catch basins were located on the north side of the Pet Coke storage pile within the unpaved portion of the site. All three catch basins were recently permanently closed and sealed with concrete. See Figure 2 for the approximate locations of the abandoned catch basins. As a result, no storm water will be discharged from the site into the Detroit River. Through use of site grading, storm water will be directed over land to the unpaved northern portion of the site where infiltration and evaporation will occur. 3.5 STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION TEAM
The storm water pollution prevention team is responsible for developing, implementing, maintaining, and revising this SWPPP. The members of the team are familiar with the management and operations of DBS. The members of the team and their primary responsibilities are as follows:

LIST OF PAST SPILLS AND LEAKS
There are no known spills or leaks of pollution materials at the facility within the last three years. 4.4 SUMMARY OF SAMPLING DATA
No storm water sampling data is currently available for the facility. 5.0 BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
The following storm water management controls, or BMPs, will be implemented to minimize the potential of pollutants to enter the storm water discharged from DBS. 5.1 NON-STRUCTURAL CONTROLS
Non-structural controls are work practices that are specifically intended to reduce the amount of pollution getting into surface waters. They are generally implemented to address the problem at the source. The following sections describe non-structural controls at the facility. 5.1.1 Prevention Maintenance The following equipment and activities are included in the preventive maintenance program.
Equipment
Double walled steel 1,000-gallon diesel AST Excavator and site trucks
Activity
The AST is checked regularly for leaks. Excavator and site truck equipment are maintained regularly.
Frequency
Weekly Inspected daily or per use
Equipment
Spill control kits
Activity
Spill control kits will be stored in the office trailer in the event of a release during vehicle maintenance activities. The contents of the spill control kits are inventoried and restocked if necessary.
Frequency
Quarterly; or after each use
Petroleum Coke (Pet Coke)
Storage event. Storm catch basins on the site have been closed and sealed with concrete. Area between asphalt pad and seawall will be built up and graded to prevent storm runoff (currently under construction). During ship loading, small amounts of Pet Coke fragments may fall from the inadvertently conveyor as the product is transported into the ships hold. A temporary diversion chute and gondola box will be installed under the loading conveyor at the ship/pier interface to capture any Pet Coke product fragments that may inadvertently fall off the conveyor belt during ship loading operations.
Diversion chute, gondola box installation will be inspected during each ship loading event. Any fragments that are not captured in the gondola will be cleaned up.
5.1.2 Quarterly Comprehensive Inspections Comprehensive inspections of the facility, including equipment and plant areas, will be conducted quarterly as required by the permit. The results of the inspections will be recorded on the Comprehensive Inspection forms contained in Appendix B. These completed forms will be kept on file with the SWPPP for a minimum of three years. The comprehensive quarterly inspections will be completed according to the following schedule: First quarter - on or before March 31st, Second quarter on or before June 30th, Third quarter on or before September 30th Fourth quarter on or before December 31st. 5.1.3 Good Housekeeping Practices Good housekeeping practices are designed to maintain a clean and orderly work environment. This will reduce the potential for significant materials to come in contact with storm water.
The following practices are included in DBS good housekeeping routine. 1. Routinely inspect for leaks or spills. 2. Ensure spill clean up procedures are understood by employees. 3. Ensure that all chemical substances are properly labeled. 4. Pick up waste materials every two weeks. 5. Inspect catch basin caps and the pier-side berm are intact and undamaged. 5.1.4 Spill Prevention and Response Procedures Spills and leaks are the largest industrial source of storm water pollution. This SWPPP specifies material handling procedures and storage requirements for significant materials. Equipment and procedures necessary for cleaning up spills and preventing the spilled materials from being discharged have also been identified. All current employees are aware of the proper procedures. Employees are provided training during initial orientation and annually thereafter. Spill control kits are located in the office trailer, which is depicted on Figure 2, Site Map. Spill control kits include the following materials: Granular absorbent material Oil pads
The following procedures have been developed for spill response for DBS: 1. Don the appropriate personal protection equipment (e.g., gloves, goggles); 2. Stop the flow of material from the source by up-righting fallen containers or using plugs or patches 3. Place absorbent material down-gradient from the spilled material; 4. Place a fire extinguisher near the area of release during cleanup operations, if a combustibility hazard exists; 5. Notify the following facility representative: John Frye, Site Spill Coordinator (313) 999-0874 6. Place used absorbent material and/or any impacted soil into a disposal bag or a 55gallon drum pending characterization and proper disposal. Upon notification of the spill, the Site Coordinator will complete a Significant Spill Report form (Appendix B). Depending upon the quantity and location of the spill, certain state or federal release reporting requirements may need to be met. A copy of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) Spill or Release Report Form is located in Appendix C. Any materials used from the spill control kits will be reordered and replaced.
5.1.5 Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Measures No areas are present at the facility, which represent a high potential for significant soil erosion. Portions of the site that are not paved with asphalt, concrete or brick pavers are depicted on Figure 2. This area of the property is fairly level and no functioning storm drains are present. Furthermore this area is covered with coarse gravel to prevent sediment runoff during high volume rain events. Because Pet Coke staging at the DBS terminal will be intermittent during the shipping season, temporary sediment discharge prevention measures have been installed and include: A temporary diversion chute and gondola box are installed under the loading conveyor at the ship/pier interface to capture any Pet Coke product fragments that may inadvertently fall off the conveyor belt during ship loading operations. Pet coke that falls from the front end loaders while transporting from the bulk pile to the conveyor hopper is routinely collected and returned to the bulk pile or hopper to prevent/minimize spreading of the material.
5.1.6 Employee Training The following is a description of the employee training programs that have been implemented to inform appropriate personnel at all levels of responsibility of the components and goals of the SWPPP.

5.1.7 Total Maximum Daily Load Requirements A copy of the City of Detroit Storm Water Management Program Plan is included as Appendix E. To date, only TDML levels for Escherichia coli (E. coli) have been established for the Detroit River. Based on Table 11 in the 2008 MDEQ Total Maximum Daily Load for E. coli for the Detroit River document, the Waste Load Allocation (WLA) for Industrial sites covered under the General Permit MIS310000 has been set at 1.92E+10 cfu/day. AKT Peerless does not expect
that the Detroit Bulk Storage would contribute measurable E. coli counts to this WLA with no material source on site and no known illicit connections/discharges. However, if changes to the site occur in the future that result in a potential material source of E. coli, additional evaluation will be conducted at that time. 5.1.8 List of Significant Materials Still Present The non-structural controls outlined above appear to be sufficient in minimizing the potential for significant materials to enter storm water at the facility. 5.2 STRUCTURAL CONTROLS
The northern and eastern areas of the property are covered with a mix of concrete, brick pavers and coarse gravel, the middle and western portion of the site where the Pet Coke is stored is covered by asphalt. Rail spurs with associated ballast material are located along the river bank between the seawall and the asphalt pad. All storm drain catch basins on the site have been permanently closed and capped with concrete. The area between the edge of the asphalt storage pad to the rail spurs and concrete seawall is being graded with milled asphalt in order to direct storm runoff away from the river. Surface contouring in this manner will prevent potential polluting materials from migrating outside the bulk storage area. 6.0 EVALUATION OF NON-STORM WATER DISCHARGES
The permit requires that all discharge locations be evaluated for the presence of unauthorized non-storm water discharges. Any unauthorized storm water discharges must be eliminated, or covered under another NPDES permit. No unauthorized storm water discharges have been identified at the property. A site Fugitive Dust Control Plan addresses potential discharge of Pet Coke directly into the Detroit River by means other than storm water runoff. The Fugitive Dust Control Plan is included as Appendix G. 7.0 RECORD KEEPING AND REPORTING
Records of all preventive maintenance inspections, the quarterly comprehensive site inspections, records of employee training sessions, the annual report, and records describing incidents such as spills or other discharges that can affect the quality of storm water runoff will be retained at DBS for at least three years. Examples of the record keeping forms are included as Appendix B of this plan. These records will be made available to the MDEQ upon request. 7.1 ANNUAL REVIEW
The SWPPP will be reviewed and updated annually and a written summary of the review will be retained on site. Based on the results of the annual review, the SWPPP will be amended accordingly to ensure continued compliance. This will include any changes that have been made at the facility, the reason for the changes, any spills that occurred, actions taken as a
result of the spill, inspection results, and any other information relevant to the SWPPP. This SWPPP will be evaluated and updated on an annual basis or whenever significant changes to DBS site operations are planned. Plan updates will be based on information obtained from the routine inspections, Quarterly comprehensive inspections, and record keeping and reporting procedures prescribed herein. Next scheduled evaluation and update: on or before October 1, 2014 7.2 RECORD KEEPING AND REPORTING FORMS
A master copy of the following record keeping and reporting forms are provided in Appendix B: 8.0 Preventive Maintenance Good Housekeeping Quarterly Comprehensive Inspection Employee Training Significant Spill Report Annual Review CERTIFICATION OF THE SWPPP

When required by the permit, report the maximum calculated daily concentration for the month in the MAXIMUM column under QUALITY OR CONCENTRATION on the Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs). For pH, report the maximum value of any individual sample taken during the month in the MAXIMUM column under QUALITY OR CONCENTRATION on the DMRs and the minimum value of any individual sample taken during the month in the MINIMUM column under QUALITY OR CONCENTRATION on the DMRs. For dissolved oxygen, report the minimum concentration of any individual sample in the MINIMUM column under QUALITY OR CONCENTRATION on the DMRs. Daily loading is the total discharge by weight of a parameter discharged during any calendar day. This value is calculated by multiplying the daily concentration by the total daily flow and by the appropriate conversion factor. The daily loading will be used to determine compliance with any maximum daily loading limitations. When required by the permit, report the maximum calculated daily loading for the month in the MAXIMUM column under QUANTITY OR LOADING on the DMRs.

LC50 means a statistically or graphically estimated concentration that is expected to be lethal to 50% of a group of organisms under specified conditions. Maximum acceptable toxicant concentration (MATC) means the concentration obtained by calculating the geometric mean of the lower and upper chronic limits from a chronic test. A lower chronic limit is the highest tested concentration that did not cause the occurrence of a specific adverse effect. An upper chronic limit is the lowest tested concentration which did cause the occurrence of a specific adverse effect and above which all tested concentrations caused such an occurrence. MGD means million gallons per day. Monthly frequency of analysis refers to a calendar month.

Nondomestic user is any discharger to a POTW that discharges wastes other than or in addition to water-carried wastes from toilet, kitchen, laundry, bathing or other facilities used for household purposes. Partially treated sewage is any sewage, sewage and storm water, or sewage and wastewater, from domestic or industrial sources that is treated to a level less than that required by the permittee's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit, or that is not treated to national secondary treatment standards for wastewater, including discharges to surface waters from retention treatment facilities. Point Source Discharge means a discharge from any discernible, confined, and discrete conveyance, including but not limited to, any pipe, ditch, channel, tunnel, conduit, well, discrete fissure, container or rolling stock. Changing the surface of land or establishing grading patterns on land will result in a point source where the runoff from the site is ultimately discharged to waters of the state. Polluting Materials means oil and any material, in solid or liquid form, identified as polluting material under the Part 5 Rules (Rules 324.2001 through 324.2009 of the Michigan Administrative Code). Pretreatment is reducing the amount of pollutants, eliminating pollutants, or altering the nature of pollutant properties to a less harmful state prior to discharge into a public sewer. The reduction or alteration can be by physical, chemical, or biological processes, process changes, or by other means.

Section C. Reporting Requirements 9.

a.
Bypass Prohibition and Notification

Bypass Prohibition - Bypass is prohibited unless: 1) bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury, or severe property damage;
2) there were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities, retention of untreated wastes, or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass; and 3) b. the permittee submitted notices as required under 9.b. or 9.c. below.
Notice of Anticipated Bypass - If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior notice to the Department, if possible at least ten (10) days before the date of the bypass, and provide information about the anticipated bypass as required by the Department. The Department may approve an anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse effects, if it will meet the three (3) conditions listed in 9.a. above. Notice of Unanticipated Bypass - The permittee shall submit notice to the Department of an unanticipated bypass by calling the Department at the number indicated in the COC (if the notice is provided after regular working hours, use the following number: 1-800-292-4706) as soon as possible, but no later than 24 hours from the time the permittee becomes aware of the circumstances. Written Report of Bypass - A written submission shall be provided within five (5) working days of commencing any bypass to the Department, and at additional times as directed by the Department. The written submission shall contain a description of the bypass and its cause; the period of bypass, including exact dates and times, and if the bypass has not been corrected, the anticipated time it is expected to continue; steps taken or planned to reduce, eliminate, and prevent reoccurrence of the bypass; and other information as required by the Department. Bypass Not Exceeding Limitations - The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the provisions of 9.a., 9.b., 9.c., and 9.d., above. This provision does not relieve the permittee of any notification responsibilities under Part II.C.10. of this permit. Definitions 1) Bypass means the intentional diversion of waste streams from any portion of a treatment facility.
c.
d.
e.
f.
2) Severe property damage means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not mean economic loss caused by delays in production.
10.
Notification of Changes in Discharge
The permittee shall notify the Department, in writing, within 10 days of knowing, or having reason to believe, that any activity or change has occurred or will occur which would result in the discharge of: 1) detectable levels of chemicals on the current Michigan Critical Materials Register, priority pollutants or hazardous substances set forth in 40 CFR 122.21, Appendix D, or the Pollutants of Initial Focus in the Great Lakes Water Quality Initiative specified in 40 CFR 132.6, Table 6, which were not acknowledged in the application or listed in the application at less than detectable levels; 2) detectable levels of any other chemical not listed in the application or listed at less than detection, for which the application specifically requested information; or 3) any chemical at levels greater than five times the average level reported in the complete application (see the COC for the date(s) the complete application was submitted). Any other monitoring results obtained as a requirement of this permit shall be reported in accordance with the compliance schedules.

1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Purpose
This Storm Water Management Program Plan (SWMPP) has been prepared to fulll the
requirements of the NPDES permit issued to the City of Detroit for the stormwater discharged from the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4). This document updates and supersedes the previous SWMPP which was prepared in March 2010, and is submitted to comply with the requirements of the NPDES permit dated February 25, 2003 which is currently in effect. A Certicate of Coverage was issued to the City of Detroit by the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) on November 5, 2004. The Certicate of Coverage and Permit are included as Appendix A. Prior to November, 2010 Detroits stormwater discharges were
regulated under a new General Permit issued by MDEQ in 2008. However, the 2008 General
Permit was subsequently withdrawn by MDEQ, leaving the 2003 Permit as the document which
establishes the regulatory requirements for Detroits stormwater discharges. A copy of the
withdrawal notice from MDEQ for the 2008 General Permit is included as Appendix B. Detroits previous SWMPP dated March, 2010 was developed to meet the requirements of the
new General Stormwater NPDES Permit issued by MDEQ on May 22, 2008. The 2008 Permit
included several new regulatory requirements including the control of stormwater pollutants to conform to Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) limits, restrictions on the quantity of stormwater allowed to be discharged from new development projects, sampling and reporting on November 30, 2010 in order to resolve a Contested Case Hearing request led by multiple permittees who objected to the terms and conditions_imposed by the new permit. As a result of the withdrawal, the 2003 Permit is the controlling regulatory document governing discharges from Detroits Municipal Separated Storm Sewer System. '
discharges from large diameter storm sewer pipes, a modied timetable for Annual Reports, and a number of other provisions. MDEQ withdrew the 2008 General Stormwater Permit on
CITY OF DETROIT
This updated SWMPP summarizes the activities undertaken since the March 2010 document was
submitted, including some work taken in response to the 2008 Permit requirements which are no longer in effect. The SWMPP addresses all current permit requirements, and sets forth the implementation schedule for activities to be conducted over the next 12 months.
1.2 Regulatory Requirements The Cityof Detroits storm water discharges are currently regulated by the general storm water discharge permit issued on February 23, 2003 to individual municipalities (the jurisdictional general storm water permit, MIS040000). The discharge permit species that permittees are to develop, implement, and enforce a SWMPP to reduce the discharge of pollutants from the
drainage system to the Maximum Extent Practicable (MEP). The MEP requirement must be met
by implementing Best Management Practices (BMPS) to address the six minimum measures including:
Page 6
1. Public education Program - Education and outreach on storm water impacts;

2. Public involvement and participation; 3. Illicit discharge elimination program; 4. Post-construction Storm Water Management Program for new development and redevelopment projects; 5. Construction storm water runoff control; 6. Pollution prevention/good housekeeping for municipal operations.
The permit requires that the permittees SWMPP list specic BMPs that will be implemented for
each of the topics above. The SWMPP must include measurable goals for each listed BMP and the perrnittee must demonstrate that the goals are met. The permittee must also demonstrate the effectiveness of the public education program and illicit discharge elimination program. In addition, the BMPs proposed by Detroit in the March, 2010 SWMPP also addressed the need to reduce pollutants in storm water discharges from the MS4 consistent with TMDLs approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. The applicable TMDLs and pollutants for Detroits storrnwater discharges are summarized in Table 1.

1.3 Summary of Prior Submittals The City of Detroit led an application dated July 17,2008 requesting coverage under MDEQs General Storrnwater Jurisdictional Permit, and the submittal included a list of 48 municipal separated storm sewer discharges. The drainage area for each outfall was reviewed by eld investigation which determined that a number of the small outfalls were actually roadway underdrains or bridge foundation drains rather than storm sewers (see August 13, 2009 letter in Appendix C), leaving a total of 32 municipal storm sewer outfalls. Subsequently, one new storm sewer with an outlet to the Rouge River have been constructed by the Department of Public Works at Ridge Road south of McNichols to handle roadway drainage. This results in a total of 33 municipally owned storm sewer outfalls which are covered by the NPDES permit. The inventory of municipal storm sewers is discussed in more detail in Section 2.2 of this report.
Page 7
The City submitted an alternate approach for managing post-construction storm water runoff in a
letter dated May 4, 2009 (see Appendix C) in response to new requirements imposed by the 2008
revised General Permit. Those requirements have since been eliminated due to MDEQs
withdrawal of the 2008 Permit. Shortly after the issuance of Detroits rst storm water discharge permit, the City also submitted supplemental information to MDEQ regarding the Citys legal authority to perform tasks which may need to be undertaken as part of the storm water management effort. This information was transmitted to MDEQ in a letter dated April 27, 2005 (see Appendix D). As part of the April 2007 SWMPP, the City included documentation that the City has the legal authority to prohibit discharges into the storm drainage system. Copies of the applicable regulations are included in Appendix E. 1.4 Affected City Departments Discharges from municipally-owned storm sewers within the City of Detroit are not the
CITY OF DETROIT
responsibility of a single municipal department or agency. Rather, several City departments have been actively involved in the development of the Storm Water Management Program, with the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department serving as the lead agency with the responsibility of coordinating the efforts to be undertaken to comply with the NPDES permit and the Certicate of Coverage. _ Other participating City agencies include the Recreation Department, the Planning
and Development Department, the Department of Public Works, the Building, Safety Engineering and Environment Department, the General Services Department, the Department of
Environmental Affairs, the Detroit Economic Growth Corporation, the Greater Detroit Resource Recovery Authority and the Law Department.

2.0 DETROITS EXISTING STORM WATER CONVEYANCE SYSTEM

2.1 Storm Water Conveyed throughCombined Sewers
Most of the storm water runoff from the City of Detroit is conveyed through the Citys combined sewer system which uses a single pipe to convey sanitary waste from residences, industries and
businesses, along with storm water drainage. The combined sewer system services the entire population of the City of Detroit, with a service area estimated at 97,240 acres. Of that, nearly _ 60,000 acres are tributary to the Main Branch of the Rouge River, which is approximately 15% of the rivers overall watershed. The combined sewers convey all dry weather ow, and a large accordance with NPDES permit MI0022802.
portion of the wet weather ow to the wastewater treatment plant at 9300 W. Jefferson in
CITY OF DETROIT
The wastewater treatment plant provides primary and secondary treatment with phosphorus removal, disinfection and dechlorination prior to discharge to the Detroit River. The NPDES permit for the wastewater treatment plant establishes efuent limits for several pollutant parameters, along with sampling and reporting requirements for the discharge. During dry weather periods, the plant processes approximately 600 million gallons per day, but has the capacity to accept-wet weather ows up to 1,700 million gallons per day through the primary treatment process. In accordance with the permit, full secondary treatment is currently given to
all flows up to 930 million gallons per day, with the excess wet weather flows above that
threshold receiving primary treatment and disinfection. The secondary treatment capacity will I increase to 980 million gallons per day after completing an upgrade to the clariers in 2015. The NPDES permit authorizes the discharge of combined sewage during wet weather events when the transport and treatment capacity of the collection system and the wastewater plant is exceeded. Combined sewage is discharged at 78 permitted locations along the Detroit and Rouge Rivers. The City is implementing a Long Term CSO Control Program to ensure that combined sewage discharges receive adequate treatment, consistent with state and federal
environmental regulatory requirements. Within the combined sewer system service area, there are several small tracts where separate storm sewers have been constructed and are utilized to convey storm water. However, these
storm sewers reconnect to the combined sewer system at a downstream point, and do not discharge directly to receiving waters. As such, they are an integral part of the Citys combined
sewer system, and the resulting discharges of combined sewage through the permitted CSO outfalls are authorized by NPDES Permit Ml0022802.
2.2 Municipally Owned Separate Storm Sewers Detroits MS4 has a very limited service area consisting primarily of parkland with river frontage, and a small amount of roadway drainage from City streets adjacent to the Rouge River or from bridges over river crossings. A comprehensive investigation of the Citys MS4 system has identied 33 municipally-owned storm sewers including 15 outfalls to the Detroit River and
its tributaries, and 18 outfalls to the Rouge River. These storm sewer discharges are shown in Table 2. The inventory of municipal storm sewers has been updated to reect the recent
Page 10
construction of a new outfall on Ridge Road south of McNichols where roadway drainage is being conveyed to the Rouge River. The location of all of the storm sewer outfalls is displayed on Figures 1 - 5. As shown on Figures 1 5, these storm sewers serve an area which includes portions of Belle Isle, portions of Rouge Park and the City streets which traverse that area, portions of two other small parks, plus a few roadways adjacent to the Rouge River. In addition, there are three known storm sewer outfalls on property now owned by DWSD which was acquired from Detroit Marine Terminal. These three outfalls drain vacant land adjacent to the wastewater treatment plant facilities, and the property is not being used for wastewater treatment
CITY OF DETROIT
processes at this time. 2.3 Privately Owned Storm Sewers Discharging Directly to the River There are several private property owners along the Detroit and Rouge Rivers who convey storm water directly to a receiving water through a privately owned storm drainage system. The' sanitary and process wastewater from these sites is typically connected toDWSDs combined sewer system. In some instances the facility may be inactive or out of business, or the property may be vacant, in which case there is no discharge of sanitary or process wastewater. The City of Detroit has no legal authority over the discharge of storm water from privately owned storm
sewers, and has not inventoried or located these outfalls. Several private entities with storm
sewers discharging directly to the river have applied for and received NPDES discharge permits for their storm water. These entities are listed in Appendix F. A

3.0 ' NESTED JURISDICTIONS

The City of Detroit has identied three nested jurisdictional areas where storm water discharge permits have been issued to other governmental entities within the City of Detroit. These include the Michigan Department of Transportation, Wayne County Roads, and Wayne County Drains.
The City of Detroit has reviewed the storm water discharge permits issued to these three entities, , and has determined that the Citys Storm Water Management Program Since can be implemented independent of the activities being undertaken by the three nested jurisdictions. the drainage areas are distinct and the tributary areas do not overlap or abut one another, there is no
necessity to coordinate the storm water management efforts of these permittees with nested . jurisdictions.

4.0 WATER QUALITY 4.1 Detroit River
The Detroit River is the connecting channel between Lake St. Clair and Lake Erie, and serves as
the international border between United States and Canada. The average flow through the Detroit River is approximately 190,000 cfs, with velocities typically in excess of two feet per V second. Extensive urban development has taken place along the shoreline, and the river receives numerous wastewater discharges from industrial and municipal treatment facilities. Water quality of the Detroit River during dry weather periods is typically excellent, with
dissolved oxygen levels consistently exceeding the state water quality standard of 7.0 mg/l. Minor uctuations in dissolved oxygen concentrations have been observed at the head end of the Detroit River on an infrequent basis. Typically, these dissolved oxygen changes are very small, and have been attributed to changes in photosynthetic activity of biological organisms in Lake St. Clair during overcast periods. During wet weather periods, the Detroit River receives large volumes of treated and untreated combined sewage overows at many discharge points within the City of Detroit. River monitoring data shows that the dissolved oxygen level of the Detroit (CSO) discharge events. The river is capable of assimilating these intermittent wet weather pollutant loads with relatively minor changes in dissolved oxygen levels. ' By contrast, the intermittent combined sewage discharges frequently generate exceedances of water quality standards for bacteria (E. coli) during and after wet weather periods. Sampling studies along the Detroit River have shown that the CS0 plume tends to follow the shoreline with very little transverse migration of pollutants across the channel because of the high velocity and strong current. There is only one bathing beach on the Detroit River which is situated at Belle Isle, and prior studies confirm that pollutants from Detroits combined sewer overows do not adversely affect the beach. Other conventional pollutants, including nutrients, oil and grease, chloride and ammonia, are
River continues to meet water quality standards during and after the combined sewer overow
found in the Detroit River, but at relatively low concentrations. Advancements in municipal and
industrial wastewater treatment facilities have led to a steady decline in concentrations of these
pollutants over time. ' Detectable levels of toxic organics and heavy metals can be found in the Detroit River, and in
more concentrated amounts in sediment deposits at various locations along the river. Persistent bioaccumulative pollutants such as mercury, PCB and dioxin are a water quality concern due to the potential for uptake of these pollutants by biota and the eventual bioaccumulation in sh and
other aquatic life. Fish consumption advisories have been issued for the Detroit River for some
pollutants. MDEQ has designated the Detroit River as a water body which is not expected to attain water quality standards with technology-based controls for several pollutant parameters. Specically, in January, 2009 a TMDL was issued for pathogens in the Detroit River. In addition, the Detroit
CITY OF DETROIT
River has been designated as requiring a TMDL study for PCB, DDT, TCDD (dioxins), and
15
Page 20
mercury. MDEQs current schedule calls for that Detroit River TMDL to be prepared in 2015.
No TMDL has been issued for phosphorus and none is planned at this time. It is not anticipated that the attainment of water quality standards pursuant to these TMDLs will be dependent on
implementation of the storm water management BMPs or other storm water pollution prevention
activities which are proposed to be undertaken by the City of Detroit.

4.2 Rouge River
The Rouge River is a major tributary to the Detroit River covering a drainage area of
approximately 467 square miles over portions of Wayne, Oakland and Washtenaw Counties. The watershed is home to more than 1.5 million people, and more than 66% of the area has been developed for residential, commercial, institutional, industrial and transportation uses. The Rouge River is the most urbanized and densely populated watershed in Michigan. There are four main branches to the Rouge River, including the Main Branch, the Upper Branch, the Middle Branch, and the Lower Branch. The Main Branch of the Rouge River is the portion of the watershed which lies predominantly within the City of Detroit, and which receives drainage from much of the Citys west side. Numerous water quality studies have been conducted on the Rouge Riverto assess water quality, including the Rouge River National Wet Weather Demonstration Project. These studies document the presence of extremely poor water quality within the Main Branch of the Rouge River during both dry and wet weather periods, although the wet weather problems are more pronounced. Dissolved oxygen level_s in the river fall below the 5.0 mg/l state water quality standard at times, and concentrations have approached zero on occasions near the conuence with the Detroit River. Improvements in dissolved oxygen concentrations have been recorded in recent years, most likely as a result of sewer separation and CS0 treatment facilities which have been built in Detroit and at several upstream suburban locations. Several upstream communities are also working to identify and eliminate illicit connections to their storm sewers, and to undertake storm water pollution prevention' activities. Bacteria problems have been documented throughout much of the Rouge River, with violations of the state water quality standards being recorded during both dry and wet weather periods at many locations. Bacteria concentrations are in part attributable to the discharge of untreated combined sewage, as well as other sources within the watershed. Other problem parameters which affect water quality in the Rouge River include nutrients, heavy metals and organic pollutants, and high concentrations of suspended solids. The Rouge River is subject to widely varying ow rates between dry and wet weather periods. In some areas, sediment deposits have been identified along the river bottom, and these deposits may be scoured out and washed downstream during some high ow events. Sediment deposits
CITY OF DETROIT
can include organic pollutants which exert an oxygen demand on the river during warm weather periods when decomposition occurs. In addition, riverbank erosion is problematic in various sectors of the Rouge River where the wet weather high ows may scour the stream bank. The biological community within the Rouge River tends to reect pollutant tolerant species and limited diversity of organisms. A portion of the Rouge River is a concrete lined channel for

INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE
This Combined Fugitive Dust Control Plan (FDCP) covers operations at the Detroit Bulk Storage (DBS) facility on the Detroit River in Detroit, Michigan. This plan contains best management practices to minimize visible fugitive dust and is revised as needed to reflect changing conditions at the facility or new technology or control methods. 3.0 RESPONSIBILITY
All employees involved in activities that have the potential to generate fugitive dust are instructed to identify visible emissions and address the fugitive dusts once identified. All employees will use their instruction, experience and judgment in the implementation of this plan to determine whether particular measures, in addition to those which are required on a regular basis, should be applied to reduce the potential for fugitive dust. Each employee has the responsibility and authority to cease any operation that may result in the transport of visible fugitive dust off the property. If guidance is needed, employees are to immediately contact their supervisor for instructions. The supervisor will evaluate operating conditions and any and implement this plan or any other measures necessary to address fugitive dust. 4.0 FACILITIES
The DBS facility is situated on approximately 10 acres in Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. The location of the property is depicted on Figure 1, Subject Property Location Map. The Detroit River flows southwest and adjoins the property to the south. The property consists of asphalt and concrete paved parking areas and driveways, and a gravel area on the northern portion of the property. A Site Map with truck traffic patterns, Petroleum Coke (Pet Coke) storage, stone aggregate storage and conveyor loading areas are depicted on Figure 2. 4.1 FACILITY OPERATIONS
The DBS facility is utilized as a marine terminal and storage operation for stone aggregates and Petroleum Coke transported via the Detroit River. A 250 square foot mobile trailer functions as the facility office and is located by the main entrance at the northeast corner of the facility. 5.0 POTENTIAL SOURCES OF FUGITIVE DUST
Potential dust-producing products handled at the site include Petroleum Coke (Pet Coke), 31A gravel, 21A aggregate stone, and 2 4 aggregate used for rail ballast. The following operations represent the potential to generate fugitive dust: A) Vessel loading and truck loading/unloading conveying products to lake vessels from the dock or dumping and/or loading trucks at the dock.
B) Storage pile maintenance/product transfer (active piles) moving products from one location on the dock to another, compacting piles, and/or shaping piles to lessen wind profile and/or improve storage characteristics. C) Storage piles (inactive piles) storing piles in an undisturbed state for at least 24 hours. D) Vehicle traffic operating mobile material handling equipment, haul trucks and other vehicles on the dock. E) Transfer of products - from front end loader to feed hopper, from feed hopper to transfer conveyor belt, and transfer from conveyor belt to ships hold. 6.0 6.1 FUGITIVE DUST CONTROLS PETROLEUM COKE OPERATIONS A) Handling of Pet Coke will include using front end loaders to remove material from the bulk storage pile and to transfer the material into conveyor/stacker feed hopper. Dust suppression using water with surfactant will be employed during the transfer process including initial loading of the hopper as needed. The dust suppression equipment will consist of truck mounted water cannons and misting/water bars. B) The transfer route between the Pet Coke storage piles and the hopper will also be wetted with the watering trucks as needed. Spilled material will be cleaned up throughout the loading process. C) The area around the hopper and below the conveyor will be maintained throughout the process including removal of all Pet Coke debris from around the hopper and conveyor. A rigid barrier wall or Geofabric tarp will be installed below the conveyor between the ship and the pier to eliminate the material from entering the Detroit River during conveyance to the ship. D) The conveyor/stacker and hopper will be equipped with a misting bar. E) Minimum drop heights at the terminus of the stacker will be maintained as material is conveyed to the ship holds. F) Pet Coke handling/loading process will be curtailed if winds exceed 30 mph sustained and/or 45 mph gusts. G) Truck traffic route will be swept daily or as needed. H) Daily recordkeeping will include weather conditions (wind direction/speed), volume of material loaded, volume of water/surfactant applied, equipment maintenance, unusual incidents/problems. I) A Dock Supervisor will be onsite during the ship loading process to observe if any dust is generated during the process. 6.2 STONE AGGREGATE OPERATIONS A) Handling of stone aggregates will include using front end loaders to remove material from the bulk storage pile and transferring the materials into trucks.
B) Dust suppression equipment such as truck mounted water cannons and misting/water bars may be utilized to prevent fugitive dust emissions. C) Daily recordkeeping will include weather conditions (wind direction/speed). 6.3 ACTIVE STORAGE PILES A) Controls such as water application and/or pavement sweeping may be applied as necessary if fugitive dusts are observed from storage of these materials. Water will be applied to storage piles of materials during transferring, compacting, pile shaping, truck loading/unloading, and vessel loading at the discretion of site personnel. Material transfers, pile compaction and storage pile shaping are completed prior to receiving bulk materials to unload in the shortest time possible, reducing the time duration of material drops and allowing quicker wetting and sealing of piles. To the extent that material transfers, pile compaction and/or pile shaping are required after receipt of materials, these activities are initiated as soon as it is safe to do so in the course of normal operating hours. Pile profiles will be maintained as low as practical to minimize wind shear. B) Active Pet Coke storage pile faces may be sloped at the end of any workday when it is known that an operator will not be working at the dock the next day(s) to minimize sloughing which reduces the effectiveness of wetting. C) During dry conditions, water is applied to the working areas of the active storage pile as needed. Wetting the active, working portions of storage pile reduces overwatering and reduces visible dust from pile maintenance, bulk material transfers to and from trucks and transfers to docked vessels. Water is not typically applied: a) on days when 0.3 inches of precipitation or more falls on the site; and b) when conditions in active bulk material storage piles indicate adequate moisture is present. Under extreme weather conditions, surfactant /encrusting agents may be used during storage pile maintenance, material transfers and truck or railcar loading operations as needed. Unless presented with extreme weather conditions, water is only applied during non-freezing conditions. D) Stacker operations and storage pile maintenance of Pet Coke will be curtailed when sustained wind speeds exceed 30 miles per hour (mph) or gusts exceed 45 mph unless such operations are deemed essential by facility management. E) During the warm, dry weather conditions, personnel will monitor wind speeds and the weather forecast, and frequently observe the facility for visible dust generation. As conditions warrant, personnel may arrange to increase the amount of water or frequency of application from the water cannons or arrange for spot application of water by other means. F) Spilled Pet Coke material within 100 meters (328 feet) of the pile will be removed. G) During freezing weather months, typically November through March, storage pile heights will be maintained as low as possible to reduce wind profiles. Activities that reduce storage pile heights will only be conducted during periods when sustained winds are less than 25 mph. Operators may also apply surfactant to minimize the potential for air-borne visible dust to leave the property. Operators monitor the following conditions when storage piles are active to determine if surfactant should be applied:
4
Temperatures of 28 F and not rising1, Presence of fine particulate in the active working face of the pile, and Low antecedent or pre-existing product moisture (i.e. less than 6 - 8%) as evidenced by above normal visible airborne dust. 6.4 INACTIVE STORAGE PILES A) Controls such as water application or pavement sweeping may be applied as necessary if fugitive dusts are observed from storage of these materials. Storage piles and weather are visually monitored each working day and water is applied as needed to control visible dust or to prepare for forecasted high winds. B) Newly received materials being transferred to a final storage location are considered "active" and are managed as outlined in 6.3 above. C) During non-freezing weather, the potential for Pet Coke fugitive dust is controlled using water application (see Sections 6.B). In seasons of freezing weather (typically November through March), the heights of uncovered piles are maintained as low as possible to reduce the wind profile of the piles. Activities associated with reducing Pet Coke pile height to limit wind exposure are only performed during periods of low wind and may be followed by application of water or pile sealing with surfactant as needed. D) Under extreme weather conditions1, heavy equipment operation on storage piles is limited to only those operations deemed essential by facility management. E) To address the potential for wind erosion, inactive Pet Coke storage piles may be tarped or have a surfactant/encrusting agent applied each fall to seal the non-active portions of the pile. Active portions of the piles are addressed in Section 6.B. 6.5 TRAFFIC ROUTES A) Vehicle speeds will be limited to 15 mile per hour on the property. B) During dry conditions, water may be misted onto paved vehicle travel routes within the 100 meter spilled Pet Coke material zone to address the potential for dust generated from traffic as warranted. Additional water is applied if the normal application frequency is insufficient to control visible dust. Water is not applied during freezing conditions. C) Trucks hauling bulk materials into or out of the dock area will be covered with tarps to address the potential for material being blown or spilled from the trucks.
(1) Extreme weather conditions may include, but are not limited to, freezing temperatures with low pre-existing product moisture; prolonged dry, windy conditions; sustained winds exceeding 30 mph; or wind gusts exceeding 45 mph.
