1. Introduction

In 2004, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) issued the first New

Jersey Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NJPDES) Master General Permit to address

potential pollutants entering local receiving waters through Municipal Separate Storm Sewer

Systems. An updated Tier A Municipal Stormwater General Permit (NJ0141852) (the Permit) was

issued by NJDEP on November 9, 2017 with an effective date of January 1, 2018. The Township

of Edison (Edison) is designated by NJDEP as a Tier A Municipality due to its historical

infrastructure, urban landscape, and population density. The overall goal of the permit is to address

and reduce non-point source pollution, which is a cumulative byproduct of the daily activities of

residents and business owners of Edison.

1.1. Edison’s MS4 and Stormwater Runoff

Edison’s type of sewer system is referred to as a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System or

MS4. In this system, the sanitary sewer lines (wastewater from residences and businesses) are

separate from the lines that collect stormwater runoff. Stormwater runoff is generated when

precipitation from rain and snowmelt events flow over land or impervious surfaces and does not

entirely percolate into the ground. While sewer lines discharge to wastewater treatment plants,

stormwater runoff is typically directed to stormwater collection facilities (e.g., catch basins) where

it flows through the storm drainage infrastructure and eventually discharges into local waterways.

As the stormwater runoff flows over the land or impervious surfaces (paved streets, parking lots,

and building rooftops), it may accumulate debris, chemicals, sediment, or other pollutants. This is

referred to as “non-point source pollution” because the pollutants in the discharge come from many

diffuse sources, as opposed to a single source such as an industrial plant. The primary method to

mitigate non-point source pollutants in stormwater discharges is the use of best management

practices (BMPs).

1.2. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP)

Part IV.F.1 of the Permit requires that Tier A Municipalities develop, implement, and maintain a

written Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) that describes the municipality’s stormwater

program and how the municipality is implementing the Statewide Basic Requirements (SBRs) of

the Permit. The SPPP is intended to focus on six SBRs that address water quality issues

associated with new development, redevelopment, and existing development. This SPPP reflects

the implementation of those Permit provisions required to be implemented as of the date of this

SPPP. Other Permit requirements with future implementation deadlines will be addressed in later

versions of the SPPP, as they are developed. The SPPP is required to be reviewed at least once

per year and Edison is required to maintain records documenting compliance with the Permit.

Edison maintains a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Team (listed in Attachment B, SPPP Forms),

which includes a Stormwater Program Coordinator. The Stormwater Program Coordinator is

2 21255-085: 788588.1

responsible for overseeing the stormwater program and certifying annually that Edison has met its

requirements under the Permit. Edison’s Stormwater Program Coordinator is also responsible for

maintaining an updated copy of the SPPP, as well as its required records and documentation.

Edison may contract any entity (public/private) to assist with the requirements of the Permit.

Currently, Edison is contracted with two engineering consultants (Maser Consulting, P.A. and

HDR, Inc.) to develop this SPPP, assist with employee training, review stormwater design and

perform preliminary inspections of stormwater facilities.

2. Tier A MS4 NJPDES Permit Requirements

2.1. Statewide Basic Requirements (SBRs)

The six SBRs are intended to target and reduce non-point source pollution and are briefly

described below. In the Permit, each one of the SBRs contains minimum requirements,

measureable goals, and an implementation schedule for both existing and new Permittees, which

vary between the two. Edison is an existing Permittee, therefore will be complying with the existing

Permittee schedule (Attachment A). Requirements have also been modified from the prior permit

to the recently updated Permit; Attachment A reflects the most current requirements. Tier A

Municipalities are required to keep records and documentation to demonstrate compliance with

the Permit. More details about Edison’s stormwater program are provided in the NJDEP-developed

SPPP forms (Attachment B), which lay out the approach of Edison’s program and how the SBRs

will be addressed. Further details are included in Edison’s specific plans, SOPs and training

manuals (Attachment C - F), which may target specific SBRs. Also note that this SPPP reflects

Edison’s existing approach to meet the current requirements of the Permit. Edison is aware that

there are other recently updated Permit requirements with future implementation dates, which will

be incorporated and implemented as per Attachment A.

2.1.1. Public Involvement and Participation, Including Public Notice

Tier A Municipalities shall comply with applicable State and local public notice requirements (e.g.,

Open Public Meetings Act, statutory procedures for enactment of ordinances, and Municipal Land

Use Law) when providing for public participation in the stormwater program. The most current

SPPP must be made available to the public upon request and is required to be posted on the

municipality’s website, together with the Municipal Stormwater Management Plan (MSWMP) and

related ordinances. Tier A Municipalities are required to certify annually that they have met these

minimum requirements.

Edison provides public notice in a manner that complies with New Jersey regulations and

requirements. When providing for public participation (e.g. passing or amending ordinances),

Edison notifies the public by local media (newspaper, Edison TV, website). Stormwater

information, as well as both Edison’s SPPP and MSWMP are available online at:

http://www.edisonnj.org/departments/public_works/storm_water/index.php. Edison will use this

same page to advertise stormwater related public education events in the future. Edison’s

ordinances may be found online (http://clerkshq.com/default.ashx?clientsite=Edison-nj), as well as

public meeting minutes (http://www.edisonnj.org/departments/clerk_s_office/index.php).

3 21255-085: 788588.1

For more details, see SPPP Form 2 – Public Notice.

2.1.2. Local Public Education

Tier A Municipalities shall implement a local public education and outreach program that focuses

on the impact of stormwater discharges to receiving waters and what citizens can do to reduce

pollutant sources. Each Tier A Municipality is required to certify annually that a certain number of

public activities were held and that public participation activities were advertised. The activities are

chosen from an approved activities list established by the NJDEP. Each activity has an associated

point value and each Tier A Municipality is required to accumulate at least twelve points annually.

Each Tier A Municipality is also required to ensure that all MS4 storm drain inlets are labeled so

the public is aware that they discharge to local receiving waters.

Edison has developed a Public Education Program to meet the requirements of the Permit.

Proposed NJDEP-approved activities to fulfill those requirements include: providing stormwater

information on Edison’s website, presenting stormwater-related displays and items at township

events, distributing stormwater related materials in township-wide mailings, and educating the

public on stormwater-related township ordinances.

Edison’s storm drain inlets are marked with a “No Dumping - Drains to Waterway” (or similar)

message by either a metallic medallion or as casted into the inlet curb itself. During catch basin

cleaning, maintenance crews note whether the medallion is present or not. For those catch basins

that are missing labels, Edison will follow up with a replacement.

For more details, see SPPP Form 4 – Local Public Education Program and Form 5 – Storm Drain

Inlet Labeling.

2.1.3. Construction Site Stormwater Runoff

Stormwater runoff from construction sites are authorized under a separate NJPDES permit,

typically the Construction Activity Stormwater General Permit No. NJ088323 (or an individual

permit); therefore construction site stormwater runoff control is not addressed in this SPPP.

2.1.4. Post Construction Stormwater Management in New Development and

Redevelopment

Tier A Municipalities shall develop, update, implement, and enforce a program that addresses

stormwater runoff from new development and redevelopment and to ensure compliance with the

Stormwater Management Rules [New Jersey Administrative Code (N.J.A.C.) 7:8]. These Permit

requirements are captured in Edison’s MSWMP and generally address new development or

redevelopment that disturbs greater than one acre (or less than one acre if the development is part

of a large common development).

4 21255-085: 788588.1

Details about Edison’s program and its requirements can be found in the MSWMP (Attachment F),

as well as under Chapter 34 of Edison’s Code (see Section 3, References). Additionally, details

are provided in SPPP Form 3 – New Development and Redevelopment Program.

2.1.5. Pollution Prevention / Good Housekeeping for Municipal Operators

Each Tier A Municipality is required to adopt and enforce community-wide ordinances that address

improper disposal of waste, including:

Disposal of pet waste;

Wildlife feeding;

Litter control;

Improper disposal of waste (i.e. dumping);

Yard waste collection; and

Private storm drain inlet retrofitting.

Also, see SPPP Form 9 – Yard Waste Ordinance/Collection Program and SPPP Form 10 –

Ordinances for additional information.

The municipality is also required to develop and implement community-wide good-housekeeping

practices including: street sweeping, catch basin/storm drain inlet inspection and cleaning, and

municipality-owned storm drain inlet retrofitting. Also, see SPPP Form 11 – Storm Drain Inlet

Retrofitting, SPPP Form 12 – Street Sweeping and SPPP Form 13 – Stormwater Facility

Maintenance for additional information.

Tier A Municipalities shall also implement stormwater best management practices (BMPs) at their

maintenance yards and ancillary operations to manage runoff and mitigate pollution from the

municipalities operations. This includes, but is not limited to such activities and operations as:

fueling, vehicle maintenance, vehicle washing, material storage, and vegetation (i.e., weed)

management.

Employees of Edison whose duties are related to these types of operations are required to attend

annual training on the requirements of the Permit and the contents of this SPPP (Attachment C).

The Permit also requires that individuals that review stormwater management designs attend a

NJDEP-approved review course every five years. Lastly, board members and governing body

members of Tier A Municipalities are required to complete online training if they are to review and

approve applications for new development and redevelopment.

Edison developed an Employee Training Program (Attachment C), under which employees whose

duties are stormwater-related are trained annually on the elements of the SPPP. To comply with

future Permit requirements, the Employee Training Program will be updated to reflect these latest

requirements. Also, for more details, see SPPP Form 17 – Employee Training.

2.1.6. MS4 Outfall Pipe Mapping and Illicit Discharge and Scouring Detection and

Control

Tier A Municipalities shall implement a program that maps and inspects all stormwater outfalls.

This mapping data shall be updated annually. Each outfall is to be inspected at the discharge point

5 21255-085: 788588.1

once every five years to identify any stream scouring or illicit dry weather discharges. If potential

illicit connections are detected, they must be investigated and eliminated if found to be illicit. The

Tier A Municipality must document inspections in the SPPP.

Edison has developed an outfall monitoring program, which is outlined in Attachment E. To comply

with future Permit requirements, the Illicit Connection and Outfall Pipe Scouring Program will be

updated to reflect these latest requirements. Also, for additional details, see SPPP Forms 6 – MS4

Outfall Pipe Mapping, Form 7 – Illicit Connection Elimination Program, Form 8 - Illicit Connection

Records, and Form 14 – Outfall Pipe Stream Scouring Remediation.

2.2. Other Control Measures In addition to the SBRs, the Permit requires the following Other Control Measures to further

reduce pollutants from entering local receiving waters and to maintain water quality.

2.2.1. Stormwater Facilities Maintenance

Each Tier A Municipality is required to develop and implement a program to ensure adequate

long-term cleaning, operation, and maintenance of all stormwater facilities, both municipality

owned and operated and privately (non-municipality) owned and operated.

Edison is continuing to develop a plan to ensure long term operation of both municipality owned

and operated, as well as privately owned and operated stormwater management facilities. This

program will require Edison and private land owners with a stormwater facilities on their property

to adhere to their maintenance plans and maintain inspection and cleaning logs to ensure the

facilities do not fail.

2.2.2. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Information

Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) limit pollutant discharges to impaired receiving

waterbodies in order to meet State water quality standards. This control measure requires Tier A

Municipalities to identify local waterbodies with TMDL limits and implement stormwater facilities

and BMPs in their tributary areas.

This requirement is new and is not required to be implemented until the end of 2018. Edison is

currently working on an approach to help reduce those pollutants with TMDLs into impaired

waterbodies.

2.3. Additional and Optional Measures Additional and Optional Measures are control measures that are not specific requirements, but

are measures that may be required to be incorporated into a Tier A Municipality’s SPPP.

Additional Measures may be based on future TMDL requirements and regional or State

stormwater or water quality management plans that would require Edison to comply due to its

inclusion within the management area boundaries. If Edison is required to comply with additional

management plans, it will be notified by NJDEP. Optional Measures include BMPs that may be

incorporated by the Tier A Municipality, but are not considered a requirement by the Permit.

Briefly outline the principal ways in which you comply with applicable State and local public notice requirements when providing for public participation in the development and implementation of your stormwater program.

For meetings where public notice is required under the Open Public Meetings Act (“Sunshine Law,” N.J.S.A. 10:4-6 et

seq.), Edison Township provides public notice in a manner that complies with the requirements of that Act. Also, in

regard to the passage of ordinances, Edison Township provides public notice in a manner that complies with the

requirements of N.J.S.A. 40:49-1 et seq. In addition, for municipal actions (e.g., adoption of the municipal stormwater

management plan) subject to public notice requirements in the Municipal Land Use Law (N.J.S.A. 40:55D-1 et seq.),

Edison Township complies with those requirements.

In general, Edison will typically notify the public, when seeking public participation by local media (newspaper, Edison

TV and website). Edison mainatins a stormwater related page on their website which will include links to the latest

Stormwater Pollution Preventin Plan (SPPP) and the Municiapl Stromater Manegemnt Plan (MSWMP). Edison will also

use this page to advertise information about stormwater related public education events in the future. Edison's ordinaces

can be found online at: Edison’s ordinances may be found online (http://clerkshq.com/default.ashx?clientsite=Edison-nj),

as well as public meeting minutes (http://www.edisonnj.org/departments/clerk_s_office/index.php).

Any future requirements by the NJPDES Tier A Municipal Stormwater General Permit, effective date 1/1/18, will be

incorporated and implemented as per Attachment A - Measureable Goals and Implementation Schedule for Existing

Permittees.

Effective Date of Permit Authorization (EDPA):4/1/2004, 1/1/2018


Describe in general terms your post-construction stormwater management in new development and redevelopment program (post-construction program), and how it complies with the Tier A Permit minimum standard. This description must address compliance with the Residential Site Improvement Standards for stormwater management; ensuring adequate long-term operation and maintenance of BMPs (including BMPs on property that you own or operate); design of storm drain inlets (including inlets that you install); and preparation, adoption, approval, and implementation of a municipal stormwater management plan and municipal stormwater control ordinance(s). Attach additional pages as necessary. Some additional specific information (mainly about that plan and ordinance(s)) will be provided in your annual reports.

To control stormwater from new development and redevelopment projects throughout Edison Township (including projects we operate) we will do the following:

Since the adoption of the stowmwater control ordinance for new development and redevelopment, the Township has and will continue to ensure, that all new residential development and redevelopment projects that are subject to the Residential Site Improvement Standards for stormwater management (including the NJDEP Stormwater Management rules, N.J.A.C. 7:8, referenced in those standards) and are in compliance with those standards. Our planning and zoning boards ensure such compliance before issuing preliminary or final subdivision or site plan approvals under the Municipal Land Use Law.

Since the 2004 EDPA, Edison Township has adopted a municipal storm water management plan pursuant to Stormwater Management Rules (N.J.A.C. 7:8-4.). The Township has adopted and implemented stormwater control ordinances in accordace with N.J.A.C. 7:8-4. The plan will ensure that any residential development and redevelopment projects will comply with these standards. The ordinance controls aspects of residential development and redevelopment projects that are not pre-empted by the Residential Site Improvement Standards and sets forth special area standards approved by the Site Improvement Advisory Board. We will ensure long-term operation and maintenance of BMP's and enforce standards setforth in Attachment 'C' of the permit to control the passage of floatable material through storm drains. In addition, any storm drain inlets installed by the Township for such projects will comply with that ordinance's standard for such inlets.

(continued on next page)

SPPP Form 3 – New Development and Redevelopment Program

(Continued, page 2)

The ordinance, which will be administered by our Planning and Zoning Boards and Code Enforcement Officer, will control stormwater from non-residential development and redevelopment projects. Where it is necessary to implement the municipal stormwater management plan, the approved ordinance will also control aspects of residential development and redevelopment projects that are not subject to the Residential Site Improvement Standards.

For any BMP that is installed in order to comply with the requirements of our post-construction program, Edison Township will ensure adequate long-term operation as well as preventative and corrective maintenance (including replacement) of BMPs. For BMPs on private property that we do not own or operate, there is a provision in the municipal stormwater control ordinance (Township Title 34: Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, 34-8.10 Maintenance and Repair) that requires the private entity to perform the operation and maintain, with penalties if the private entity does not comply. If, for example, the private entity does not perform the required maintenance, the Township can perform the maintenance and charge the private entity.

Maintenance plans for stormwater facilities are required when submitting plans for approval. These plans will be maintained in the Engineer’s Office. Owners of (or persons responsible for) private BMPs are required to submit annually proof of BMP O&M (i.e. maintenance/inspection logs) to ensure that BMPs are functioning properly. These documents will be received by the Clerk’s Office and reviewed by the Township Engineer’s Office. Once reviewed, the Township Engineer will determine whether a follow up inspection is necessary to further confirm the functionality of the BMP. Similarly, if logs are not received for a known private BMP, the Township Engineer will follow up with an inspection.

Edison Township will also enforce, through the municipal stormwater control ordinance, compliance with the design standard in Attachment C of our permit to control passage of solid and floatable materials through storm drain inlets. Edison Township expects that for most projects, such compliance will be achieved either by conveying flows through a trash rack as described in the “Alternative Device Exemptions,” or (for flows not conveyed through such a trash rack), by installation of the NJDOT bicycle safe grate and (if needed) a curb opening with a clear space no bigger than two inches across the smallest dimension.

When reviewing developments that meet the definition of “major” development (one or more acres disturbance), Edison will complete a Major Development Stormwater Summary Form (example Attachment D of the Permit).

Storm Drain Inlet LabelingDescribe your storm drain inlet labeling program, including your labeling schedule, the details of your long-term maintenance plan, and plans on coordinating with watershed groups or other volunteer organizations.The initial inventory and lableing for the all of the Township's inlets was completed in 2009 by the Township's Consultant

Engineer (Stormwater Compliance Solutions). Portions of the Township stormwater inlets have been labled with metallic

labels applied using adhesive, while other portions have been slowly replaced with DEP compliant NJDOT Eco-Safe

castings.

During our annual catch basin cleaning and maintenance program, we will be changing a select number of inlets to DEP

compliant NJDOT Eco-Safe Type castings. Additionally, all inlets that fall within the Townships road improvement and

paving limits will have the castings replaced with DEP compliant Eco-Safe castings. If catch basins are missing labels,

this is noted on the maintenance sheet and those catch labels will be replaced by Edison.

The Township is currently in the process of procuring professional surveying services to update and prepare digital tax

maps with a baseline setup for developing a township-wide GIS system. The mapping will consist of parcel mapping

initially, and the incorporation of the previously completed stormwater inlet identification & mapping. The initial GIS

mapping is scheduled for completion by mid-2018. A planned verification and update of the Township's stormwater inlet

inventory is to immediately follow.

Explain how you will prepare your map (include its type and scale, and the schedule for the mapping process). Who will prepare your map (e.g., municipal employees, a consultant, etc.)?

The Township's stormwater outfalls were initially mapped by Stormwater Compliance Solutions in 2008. The locations

are identified on a 22"x34" map entitled "Edison Township Outfall Map" dated December 2008, at a scale of 1inch

=1,850 feet and encoded with alpha-numberic designations. A visual verification update of these loactions is scheduled

for 2018. Additionally,Middlesex County is currently collecting GIS data. The updated information will then be

incorporated into the Township's GIS system, which is currently scheduled to be available in 2018.

Edison has developed an Illicit Connection and Outfall Pipe Scoring Program, which includes a section about Outfall

Pipe Mapping. The program can be found as an appendix to the SPPP document. The program will be revised in 2018 to

reflect latest permit requirements, as well as work completed updates.

Describe your Illicit Connection Elimination Program, and explain how you plan on responding to complaints and/or reports of illicit connections (e.g., hotlines, etc.). Attach additional pages as necessary.As per the Permit, Tier A Municipalities are required to conduct an initial physical inspection of all mapped MS4

outfalls, and maintain an ongoing program to detect and eliminate illicit connections. Edison will conduct inspections of

all MS4 outfall pipes every five years. Any newly mapped MS4 outfall pipes will be added to the list of outfalls to be

inspected.

Field staff will conduct an initial illicit connection inspection during the MS4 outfall pipe verification. For subsequent

inspections, Edison’s field staff will use a Periodic Outfall Inspection Data Sheet to conduct and document these

inspections which will be filed with the SPPP. Outfall pipes that are found to have dry-weather flow will be sampled and

analyzed. If there is evidence of a non-stormwater flow but there is no flow detected at the time of inspection, the outfall

will be re-checked at a later date. If a discharge has been identified as “illicit,” outfall inspectors will contact the Edison

Department of Planning and Engineering and a maintenance crew will investigate the source. If the source of the

discharge is located and confirmed, Edison will eliminate the illicit discharge or issue a notice to the potential owner of

the discharging property. Similarly, if a suspected illicit connection is discovered during routine maintenance, Edison

will investigate.

Any suspect illicit connections observed by the public (both during dry and wet weather) can be reported by submitting a

Q Alert on Edsion's website.

Edison has developed an Illicit Connection and Outfall Pipe Scouring Program. The program can be found as an

appendix to the SPPP document. The program will be revised in 2018 to reflect latest permit requirements, as well as any
