INTRODUCTION 1.0

Spire Construction Inc. (the client) intends to develop a site at 13201 River Road, Richmond, BC

(the site). This land is federally owned, and the development requires Project and

Environmental Review (PER) through the Port of Vancouver (the Port, with legal name as the

Vancouver Fraser Port Authority, VFPA).

One of the Port’s stated requirements is a stormwater pollution prevention plan, and the client

has hired Envirochem Services Inc. (Envirochem) to provide this plan.

The subject site is shown in Figure 1 below.

BACKGROUND 2.0

2.1 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

The proposed development includes a distribution warehouse facility (approximately

68,000 sq. ft. footprint) with paved loading bay (est. 14 loading bays) and parking area (est.

83 stalls). The prospective tenant has been identified as UNO Foods Inc., a distribution company

which imports Asian food products for the Canadian market. A preliminary site plan, prepared

by the project architect, has been supplied to Envirochem by the client and is included as

Appendix A.

2.2 PORT OF VANCOUVER PROJECT AND ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (PER)

The Port is “responsible for the administration, management and control of land and water

within its jurisdiction”, which is managed through a number of permitting processes.

Proposed works and activities within or partially within the Port’s jurisdiction are required to

obtain a Project and Environmental Review Project Permit (PER Permit).

The Port have assigned reference number PER 15-165 to the application, and have supplied the

client with an application submission requirements list (Appendix B), which sets out the

additional information that the Port requires. This includes a stormwater pollution prevention

plan (SPPP), which is subject of this report.

2.3 SPPP OBJECTIVES

The objectives of this SPPP are:

To prevent the pollution of storm water leaving the site, during construction and

operation phases,

To inform awareness training for site personnel and contractors, and

To meet the requirements of the PER Permit.

SITE DESCRIPTION 3.0

The subject site is located in the north of the City of Richmond, to the west of the Knight Street Bridge.

The site area is approximately 1.6 hectares in area, and consists of two separate parcels [1], one to the

north of river road (Northern Lot) and one to the south (Southern Lot). The northern lot is irregular in

shape and is bounded by the Fraser River to the north, and River Road to the south. The southern lot is

regular in shape and is bounded by River Road to the North, and adjoining industrial lots (warehouses)

to the West, South and East. There is a plan to develop the southern lot, and the northern lot (adjacent

to the Fraser River) will not be developed.

The Site is currently undeveloped and vacant.

3.1 SITE TOPOGRAPHY

The local area’s topography is generally low lying and flat [2]. The site is also generally flat and level. The

site elevation is understood to be approximately 2.5m geodetic [3].

3.2 HYDROLOGY

The local area is drained by drainage ditches, one of which runs along the south side of River Road, and

bounds the southern lot. This ditch moves surface water from the east to a westerly located pump

station located near Number 5 Road that pumps drainage out to the North Arm of the Fraser River. The

Fraser River bounds the northern lot along the north site boundary. No watercourses were apparent on

site.

The southern lot drains to the ditch alongside River Road, and the northern lot drains to the Fraser

River.

3.3 SOIL COVER AND QUALITY

The soil cover on site is understood to be entirely comprised of mineral fill (with a consistent depth of

between ~1.3 and ~2m). The fill was been introduced after 2005. The fill is understood to “generally

consist of compact to dense silty sand and gravel mixture, till fill” [3]. Envirochem’s observations during

the site were consistent with this description. Soil sampling was not completed.

16113 – SPPP – 13201 River Road, Richmond, BC Envirochem Services Inc. – www.envirochem.com

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK 4.0

The site is understood to be on federal land under the jurisdiction of the Port of Vancouver, a federal

port authority. The site is located within the City of Richmond. Other than the Port PER Permit, no other

authorizations are required for the construction phase. There are a number of applicable environmental

standards, acts, regulations, by-laws, and guidelines which must be observed throughout construction

and operation at the site. Some of the applicable legislation and guidance documents are summarized

in the sections below.

4.1 PERMIT AND GUIDANCE DOCUMENT

The PER application submission requirements (PER No. 15-165) were determined by the Port of

Vancouver for the project. As part of the required studies and reports (Section 4), the Port required that

a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) (this document) be prepared by a qualified professional

in conformance with the Port Metro Vancouver Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan Guideline (see:

http://www.portmetrovancouver.com/development-and-permits/project-and-environmental-

reviews/technical-guidelines/).

The guidance document outlines various guidelines including site inventory, issues identification and risk

analysis, stormwater pollution prevention plan management strategy, implementation and monitoring

requirements, and reporting requirements. The site-specific details for this site and management plan

details are included in this document (the SPPP).

4.2 LEGISLATION AND CRITERIA

4.2.1 Federal Fisheries Act

The main regulatory consideration which applies is the Federal Fisheries Act. The Fisheries Act forbids

the deposit of deleterious substances of any type in water frequented by fish, and imposes potentially

high penalties for companies controlling or supplying the material released (up to $1,000,000 per

infraction).

4.2.2 Federal Fire Code

This document provides the requirements for handling flammable materials in Canada, and includes the

storage and dispensing of fuels from the viewpoint of fire prevention and fire safety.

4.2.3 Provincial Spill Reporting Regulations

This is a provincial regulation (under the BC Environmental Management Act) which requires immediate

reporting where certain substances are spilled to the environment in specific quantities.

SITE INVENTORY AND POTENTIAL RISKS 5.0

The site inventory presents the daily operations and materials anticipated on site, and identifies

potential risks associated with those activities and materials. The site is currently undeveloped (no

buildings) and will be developed with a tilt-up warehouse structure, paved parking lot, and minor

landscaping (consistent with neighbouring land use).

The relative ranking and management of those risks is discussed in later sections.

5.1 DAILY OPERATIONS - CONSTRUCTION

5.1.1 General – Vehicle movement

Vehicular movement off and on site throughout the project may present a risk of storm water pollution

mainly due to sediments from track-out of mud.

5.1.2 General – Storage of chemicals on site

Storage of chemicals, including oils and fuels on site present a potential risk of spill and storm water

pollution. The materials anticipated are outlined in detail in later sections.

5.1.3 Site preparation, earthworks, and construction

Site preparation will involve selective clearing of existing (minimal) vegetation. Earthworks will involve

excavation for warehouse foundation (slab-on-grade) and underground utilities, stockpiling soils, and

potentially importing material from off-site.

These activities will involve exposing open ground, moving and stockpiling of soil, and importing

materials (e.g. aggregates) from off site. All activities present a potential risk of storm water pollution,

typically related to sediments, but also potentially related to spills from equipment. Building

construction and paving and landscaping activities will present similar environmental issues.

These potential impacts appear can be readily mitigated with standard stormwater management

controls and measures for construction specific for this site (discussed further below).

5.2 DAILY OPERATIONS – POST-CONSTRUCTION

Post-construction, the site is to be occupied largely by a warehouse, parking lot, and minor landscaping.

Stormwater runoff from the site (including building and parking lot) will be directed to the drainage

ditch to the north of the southern parcel which is hydraulically connected to a local pump station and is

ultimately discharged to the Fraser River. This drainage ditch, located on City of Richmond property,

collects runoff from the neighbouring paved roadways and properties with similar layouts as the subject

site.

5.3 MATERIALS - CONSTRUCTION

5.3.1 Diesel Fuel and Gasoline

Some storage is anticipated on site, in truck box tanks and/or other mobile fuel tanks. Potential risks

relate mainly to refueling, leaks and spills.

5.3.2 Lubricants

Some storage (small volumes) is anticipated on site, and potential risks relate mainly to refueling, leaks

and spills.

5.3.3 Waste Oils, Paints etc.

Some waste oils, paints etc. may need to be stored on site, and potential risks relate mainly to leaks and

spills due to improper storage.

5.3.4 Paints

Paints may be stored and used on site (in minor quantities), and potential risks relate mainly to spills.

5.3.5 Soil

Soil related to earthworks may need to be stored on site, and potential risks relate to sediments from

storm water runoff, and/or washing of wind-blown dust offsite.

5.3.6 Aggregates

Aggregates used on site pose a potential risk of sediments washing into watercourses.

5.3.7 Concrete

Uncured concrete used on site poses a potential risk when in, or near, watercourses.

5.4 MATERIALS – POST-CONSTRUCTION

As mentioned, following construction, UNO Foods Inc., a distribution company which imports Asian food

products for the Canadian market, is anticipated to occupy the warehouse building and site parking

area. Materials of potential environmental concern do not appear to be of significance.

16113 – SPPP – 13201 River Road, Richmond, BC Envirochem Services Inc. – www.envirochem.com

STORM WATER POLLUTION PREVENTION MEASURES 8.0

8.1 CONSTRUCTION STAGE

8.1.1 General Principles

In general, the first priority will be to prevent storm water pollution through adequate training and

supervision of personnel and contractors. Site activities will be monitored regularly, and any pollution

(sediment, fuel leak, etc.) will be contained on site. Good housekeeping and preventative maintenance

will be employed at all times.

8.1.2 Sediment Track-out

Sediment track-out will be prevented during the construction phase by stabilizing high traffic areas

(through placement of firm, compacted subgrade). Construction is anticipated to occur mainly in the

‘wet season’ The condition of River Road will be inspected daily. Where mud from site is being tracked

out, a road sweeper will be contracted to clean up the roadway.

8.1.3 Soil moving and stockpiling

A silt fence will be installed between the edge of the ditch and the vehicle traffic path for vehicles near

the site entrance/exit and also around the entire site boundary to contain sediments. The fence will be

installed in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations and to the satisfaction of the

environmental monitor. On dry days where earthworks or excavation are required, dust will be

suppressed using a water spray. Any soil stockpiles susceptible to erosion will be covered with poly tarp

at the end of each day.

8.1.4 Spills from equipment

In accordance with the CEMP, all site personnel and contractors will be made aware of spill response

procedures prior to commencing work on site. Spill kits will be adequately stocked and labelled, and

available on site throughout construction. Refueling will take place off site where it is practical to do so.

Any on-site refueling, if required, will take place in the designated area only.

8.1.5 Excavation Water – Capture and Treat

Where excavation is required for the installation of services, building foundations etc., it is possible that

the excavation may require dewatering. If quantities are low, water can be discharged on unpaved

ground to infiltrate on site. If large volumes are encountered, then the site will implement sediment

removal and treatment measures. These treatment measures will be selected by the construction

manager, depending on project requirements. Treatment system may include a temporary capture, or

capture and treatment system (such as a 5,000 gallon HDPE holding tank, or a Tigerfloc system).

Page 16: Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan 13201 River Road ... · plan (SPPP), which is subject of this report. 2.3 SPPP O. BJECTIVES. The objectives of this SPPP are: To prevent the pollution

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan 13201 River Road, Richmond, BC 11

16113 – SPPP – 13201 River Road, Richmond, BC Envirochem Services Inc. – www.envirochem.com

Any treated water will be contained on site, and will be tested prior to discharge to the ground (if in

manageable quantities) or ditch. Where the quality meets the requirements listed in Table 4 below, it

will be considered suitable for discharge to the ditch, under the supervision of the environmental

monitor. Where treated water is found to be unsuitable, it will be cycled through the system again until

the quality is found to be suitable for discharge.

NOTE: If there is a spill on site, the relevant product MSDS / SDS will be reviewed, and this list will be

updated as and if required.

8.2 OPERATION STAGE

8.2.1 General Principles

In general, pollution will be prevented where possible, and contained and treated where prevention

fails. Good housekeeping and preventative maintenance will be employed at all times.

8.2.2 Control flow of all storm water

All storm water from paved areas and the building roof will flow to catch basins on site. Catch basins will

run to onsite storm sewers, which will run to an oil water separator system (per engineers’s design and

specifications) prior to discharge to ditch.

8.2.3 Oil water separator

The oil water separator system will be suitably maintained (inspection and cleanout) to ensure it

continues to be effective. Testing will be conducted only if required by regulatory authority.

General Notes:

1. Contractor is responsible for implementation and maintenance of all Stormwater Pollution Prevention (SPPP)

measures on site in general conformance with this SPPP and other available best management practices (BMPs).

2. Pumped excavation water shall be directed to holding tank or discharged to ground for infiltration if low quantity.

3. Discharge of any material that could be deemed "deleterious" under the federal Fisheries Act is strictly prohibited. All

work must be undertaken and completed in such a manner as to prevent the release of deleterious substances into

the ditch or Fraser River. Deleterious substances include petroleum hydrocarbons, solvents, heavy metal particulate,

silt, raw concrete leachate, etc.

4. Any soil piles onsite for short-term storage (less than 30 days) should be covered with polyethylene sheeting

particularly during periods of precipitation or if precipitation is imminent. Sheeting must be inspected on a regular

basis and any separation or tears repaired immediately. Excavated soils shall be stored away from storm drains or

other potential pathways leading to a watercourse.

5. Sediment shall not to be tracked onto civic lands or streets by vehicles and mobile equipment. Any sediment

accumulation on streets must be managed by appropriate general housekeeping measures. Street sweeping

(manual and/or mechanical) is to be conducted as required. However, cleaning shall not flush sediment-laden water

into any downstream system. In dry periods, appropriate dust suppression measures (light application of water) must

also be undertaken.

6. All collected sediment is to be disposed of offsite at an approved location or facility.

7. Additional BMPs for stormwater pollution prevention and erosion and sediment control include the following reference

documents:

Land Development Guidelines for the Protection of Aquatic Habitat manual published by Fisheries and Oceans

Canada and the BC Ministry of Environment, Lands and Parks (now the BC Ministry of the Environment)
