Final Modification of the National Pollutant Discharge 
Elimination System (NPDES) Storm Water Multi-Sector General Permit for 
Industrial Activities; Termination of the EPA NPDES Storm Water 
Baseline Industrial General Permit

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Final notice of modifications to the NPDES Storm Water Multi-
Sector General Permit for Industrial Activities and Termination of the 
EPA Storm Water Baseline Industrial General Permit.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Regional Administrators of EPA Regions I, II, III, IV, VI, 
IX, and X are today providing final notice of modifications to EPA's 
final NPDES Storm Water Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) which was 
first issued on September 29, 1995 (60 FR 50804), and amended on 
February 9, 1996 (61 FR 5248), February 20, 1996 (61 FR 6412), and 
September 24, 1996 (61 FR 50020). EPA has modified the MSGP to 
authorize storm water discharges from previously excluded facilities so 
that they may be covered by the MSGP after expiration of EPA's Baseline 
Industrial General Permit. EPA also finalized the following limited 
specific changes to the MSGP as published on September 29, 1995 (60 FR 
50804): (1) Authorization of mine dewatering discharges from 
construction sand and gravel, industrial sand, and crushed stone mines 
in EPA Regions I, II and X; (2) inclusion in Sector A of the MSGP of 
the effluent limitation guideline in 40 CFR Part 429, Subpart I for 
discharges resulting from spray down of lumber and wood products in 
storage yards (wet decking); (3) clarification that Sectors X and AA 
authorize discharges from all facilities in major SIC groups 27 and 34 
respectively; (4) addition of new Sector AD to the MSGP to authorize 
discharges from Phase I facilities which may not fall into one of the 
original sectors of the permit, and selected Phase II discharges which 
are designated for permitting in accordance with 40 CFR 
122.26(g)(1)(i); (5) modification of inspection requirements in Sector 
I for inactive oil and gas extraction facilities which are remotely 
located and unstaffed; (6) addition of new Addendum I to provide 
guidance and information to assist applicants with determining permit 
eligibility concerning protection of historic properties; and (7) 
update of the county/species list of endangered and threatened species 
found in Addendum H, and provide a listing of additional sources to 
reference for future updates to the list.
    The Regional Administrators are also providing final notice that 
the Agency is not reissuing the NPDES storm water Baseline Industrial 
General Permit which was issued on September 9, 1992 (57 FR 41236) or 
September 25, 1992 (57 FR 44438), depending on the geographic area of 
applicability, and to terminate this permit (with the limited 
exceptions discussed in Section I below) upon final modification of the 
multi-sector permit. As a result, all industrial facilities previously 
permitted under the Baseline Industrial General Permit, except as 
otherwise specified in this notice, are required to seek storm water 
permit coverage under the modified MSGP within 90 days after the 
publication of this final notice or submit an application for an 
individual NPDES permit.
    This action also provides notice for the issuance of the final 
NPDES MSGP (including today's modifications) for storm water discharges 
associated with industrial activity for American Samoa and the 
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). The geographic 
area of coverage of the MSGP is being revised today to include American 
Samoa and CNMI on the list of areas for which discharges may be 
authorized.

DATES: The modifications to the MSGP are effective upon publication of 
this notice for discharges for which EPA is currently the permitting 
authority. This will allow new dischargers which have not been able to 
obtain discharge authorization since the Baseline Industrial General 
Permit expired to obtain coverage under the MSGP as soon as possible. 
Except as specified otherwise in this notice, termination of 
administratively extended permit coverage for facilities permitted 
under the Baseline Industrial General Permit will take effect 92 days 
after the date of publication of this notice in areas where EPA is the 
NPDES permitting authority. Where EPA has approved State NPDES programs 
with authority over discharges covered by the Baseline Industrial 
General Permit, that permit will remain in effect by operation of law 
until superseded by either a State-issued NPDES permit or an EPA permit 
issued under section 402(d)(4) of the Clean Water Act.

ADDRESSES: The index to the administrative record for this permit is 
available at the appropriate Regional Office or from the EPA Water 
Docket Office in Washington, DC. The administrative record is stored in 
two locations. Documents immediately referenced in this modification 
notice are stored at the EPA Water Docket Office at the address listed 
below. All other documents which were used to support the original 
issuance of the MSGP in 1995 are a supplement to the record for this 
modification action but are stored at Science Applications 
International Corporation (SAIC), 1710 Goodridge Drive, McLean, 
Virginia 22102. These materials include, for example, the permit 
applications and sampling data provided to EPA by group applicants. The 
immediate and supplemental record is available for inspection from 9 
a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. For 
appointments to examine any portion of the administrative record, 
please call the Water Docket Office at (202) 260-3027. Copies of the 
final permit modifications may be acquired from the Office of Water 
Resource Center by dialing (202) 260-7786. A reasonable fee may be 
charged for copying. Specific record information can also be made 
available at the appropriate Regional Office upon request.

1997, Proposal to Modify the Multi-Sector General Permit and 
Terminate the Baseline Industrial General Permit
Appendix B--Summary of MSGP and Baseline Permit Requirements

I. Background

    On September 9, 1992 (57 FR 41175) or September 25, 1992 (57 FR 
44412), depending on the geographic area involved, EPA issued a final 
NPDES storm water baseline industrial general permit (not including 
construction activity) for the following areas:
    EPA Region I--for the States of Maine, Massachusetts and New 
Hampshire; and for Indian country located in Massachusetts, New 
Hampshire and Maine.
    EPA Region II--for Puerto Rico and Indian country located in New 
York. (On April 14, 1993, EPA proposed modifications to the baseline 
general permit issued in Puerto Rico to address changes to the 401 
certification conditions requested by the Environmental Quality Board 
(EQB) of Puerto Rico. On September 24, 1993 the changes became final. 
These modifications, however, did not alter the original issuance and 
expiration date of the baseline general permit in Puerto Rico.)
    EPA Region III--for the District of Columbia and Federal facilities 
in Delaware.
    EPA Region IV--for the State of Florida; and for Indian country 
located in Florida, Mississippi, and North Carolina.
    EPA Region VI--for the States of Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma 
and Texas; and for Indian country located in Louisiana, New Mexico 
(except Navajo lands and Ute Mountain Reservation lands), Oklahoma, and 
Texas.
    EPA Region VIII--for the State of South Dakota; for Indian country 
located in Colorado, Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota, Utah (except 
Goshute Reservation and Navajo Reservation lands), and Wyoming; for 
Federal facilities in Colorado; and for the Ute Mountain Reservation in 
Colorado and New Mexico.
    EPA Region IX--for the State of Arizona; for the Territories of 
Johnston Atoll, American Samoa, Guam, and Midway and Wake Islands; and 
for Indian country located in California, and Nevada; and for the 
Goshute Reservation in Utah and Nevada, the Navajo Reservation in Utah, 
New Mexico, and Arizona, the Duck Valley Reservation in Nevada and 
Idaho.
    EPA Region X--for the States of Alaska and Idaho; for Indian 
country located in Alaska, Idaho (except Duck Valley Reservation 
lands), and Washington; and for Federal facilities in Washington.
    Most of the above areas were covered by the September 9, 1992, 
notice of permit issuance. The September 25, 1992, notice covered only 
the States of Florida (except for Indian lands which were covered by 
the September 9, 1992 notice) and Massachusetts, Puerto Rico, the 
District of Columbia, Guam and American Samoa, Indian country in New 
York and Federal facilities in Delaware. The baseline permit expired on 
September 9, 1997 or September 25, 1997, depending on the area of 
applicability, and EPA is not reissuing the baseline permit in those 
areas where today's MSGP modification is effective. As a result, most 
industrial facilities previously permitted under the baseline permit 
(except for those located in certain excluded areas discussed below) 
are therefore required to seek storm water permit coverage under 
today's modified MSGP or an individual permit. The MSGP which was 
originally issued on September 29, 1995 (60 FR 50804), and amended on 
February 9, 1996 (61 FR 5248), February 20, 1996 (61 FR 6412), and 
September 24, 1996 (61 FR 50020).
    The excluded areas where the baseline permit will continue to apply 
are those areas where the baseline permit had been effective, but where 
the modified MSGP is not effective. These areas include Federal 
facilities in Colorado, and Indian country located in Colorado 
(including the portion of the Ute Mountain Reservation located in New 
Mexico), Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota (including the portion of 
the Pine Ridge Reservation located in Nebraska), Utah (except for the 
Goshute and Navajo Reservation lands (see Region IX)) and Wyoming. 
Maintaining storm water permit coverage under the baseline permit is 
necessary since the MSGP does not apply to facilities located in these 
areas, and the Agency is not expanding the MSGP's scope of coverage to 
include them through this modification. In addition, for facilities 
where individual permits are required, baseline permit coverage will be 
extended until final determinations are made on the individual permit 
applications.
    EPA's July 11, 1997 notice of the proposed modification of the MSGP 
had included American Samoa among the areas where the baseline permit 
would be extended (62 FR 37448). However, since the MSGP is now 
effective in American Samoa by today's action (see Section X below), 
extension of the baseline permit is no longer necessary in this area.
    There are also a few areas where the baseline permit was issued but 
not the MSGP, where the baseline permit is nevertheless being 
terminated. These areas are Indian country in New York, North Carolina 
and Mississippi. Only a very small number of permittees exist in these 
areas and individual permits will be issued as needed.
    Permit numbers for New Hampshire Federal Indian Reservations 
(NHR05*##F) and Vermont Federal Indian Reservations (VTR05*##F) have 
been removed from the EPA Region I ``Areas of Coverage'' in the final 
permit modification because no Federally recognized Tribes exist in 
these States.
    It should also be pointed out that in certain states which had been 
covered by the 1992 baseline permit, the NPDES permit program has now 
been delegated to the state (except for Indian country in these 
states). These states are South Dakota, Louisiana and Oklahoma, and 
permittees in these states (except for certain oil and gas facilities 
in Oklahoma) are now subject to permitting by the state. In Oklahoma, 
EPA will maintain NPDES permitting authority over oil and gas 
exploration and production related industries, and pipeline operations, 
which are regulated by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (See 61 FR 
65049). Oklahoma received NPDES program authorization for only those 
discharges covered by the authority of the Oklahoma Department of 
Environmental Quality (ODEQ).

    The action of transferring permittees currently covered by the 
baseline permit to the MSGP is consistent with the long-term permitting 
strategy for storm water discharges associated with industrial activity 
which was finalized on April 2, 1992 (57 FR 11394). This strategy 
includes the following four permitting tiers:
    Tier I--Baseline Permitting--One or more general permits will be 
developed to initially cover the majority of storm water discharges 
associated with industrial activity.
    Tier II--Watershed Permitting--Facilities within watersheds shown 
to be adversely impacted by storm water discharges associated with 
industrial activity will be targeted for individual or watershed-
specific general permits.
    Tier III--Industry-Specific Permitting--Specific industry 
categories will be targeted for individual or industry-specific general 
permits.
    Tier IV--Facility-Specific Permitting--A variety of factors will be 
used to target specific facilities for individual permits.
    The long-term permitting strategy begins with baseline permitting 
as was done in 1992 with the baseline general permit. However, baseline 
permitting may not provide optimum water quality benefits since the 
same basic permit conditions are applied to a wide variety of 
facilities operating in different geographic areas. As such, the long-
term strategy also calls for additional permitting over time with more 
specific permit conditions developed for facilities in Tiers II, III 
and IV above.
    The MSGP is based on information received as a result of the group 
permit application process described at 40 CFR 122.26(c)(2). EPA 
received applications from approximately 1,200 groups representing 
nearly all of the categories of industrial facilities listed in the 
storm water regulations at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14). To facilitate permit 
issuance for the group applications, EPA consolidated the groups into 
29 industrial sectors, with subsectors also included in certain sectors 
as appropriate.
    The group applications included information concerning the specific 
types of operations which are present at the different types of 
industrial facilities, potential sources of pollutants from the 
facilities, industry-specific best management practices (BMPs) which 
are available, and monitoring data from the different types of 
facilities. Using this information, EPA was able to develop sector-
specific BMPs for the MSGP which are better tailored to controlling the 
discharges of pollutants from the various facilities than the 
requirements of the baseline permit which only include generic BMP 
requirements which are applied across a wide variety of industries. In 
addition, the monitoring requirements of the MSGP are based on actual 
monitoring data rather than best professional judgment which is largely 
the case for the baseline permit.
    Given the above factors, EPA believes that the MSGP should provide 
improved water quality benefits as compared to the baseline permit. For 
this reason, and in accordance with the long-term permitting strategy, 
EPA is transferring permit coverage from the baseline permit to the 
MSGP after expiration of the baseline permit.
    As discussed in Section II below, the MSGP omitted coverage for a 
small number of categories of facilities which were authorized to 
discharge under the baseline general permit. As such, EPA is today 
modifying the coverage of the MSGP to include these categories in order 
that they may be eligible for coverage when transferring from the 
baseline permit to the MSGP.

II. Coverage of Final Modified MSGP

    The final modified multi-sector storm water permit covers storm 
water discharges associated with industrial activity in most geographic 
areas where EPA is the NPDES permitting authority, described earlier in 
this fact sheet. In accordance with the long-term permitting strategy 
discussed above, EPA's intent when issuing the baseline general permit 
was to cover all of the categories of industrial facilities which may 
discharge storm water associated with industrial activity as defined at 
40 CFR 122.26(b)(14). The baseline permit did include certain generic 
coverage limitations which are also found in Section I.B.3 of the MSGP. 
These exclusions include discharges such as those which may contribute 
to a violation of a water quality standard, and discharges which 
adversely affect endangered species or their critical habitat.
    As noted above, group applications were not received from all of 
the categories of facilities listed at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14), and 
certain categories were not included in the MSGP which had been 
included in the baseline permit. In order to cover all the types of 
facilities to be transferred from the baseline permit, EPA is today 
expanding the coverage of the MSGP to authorize storm water discharges 
from these additional categories of facilities.
    The MSGP had already authorized storm water discharges from a wide 
range of industrial facilities which are summarized below in Table 1:

* Denotes subsector with analytical (chemical) monitoring requirements.
** X or XX denotes any number or numbers from 0 to 9 in the SIC code. NA indicates those industry sectors in
  which subdivision into subsectors was determined to be not applicable.
*** EPA intends to issue a modification of the MSGP for this section shortly, in a separate FR notice.

    EPA reviewed the categories of additional facilities to be added to 
the MSGP and also considered the coverage and existing requirements of 
the various sectors/subsectors already included in the MSGP. Based on 
this review, EPA concluded that for each category of facility to be 
added, a sector/subsector of the MSGP was available with appropriate 
BMP and monitoring requirements for the new categories. The new 
categories of facilities, and the sectors/subsectors in which they have 
been added by today's MSGP modification, are summarized in Table 2 
below. EPA has also added a new Sector AD which will allow coverage for 
any regulated storm water discharge associated with industrial activity 
not described by any of the other sectors.

    After a permittee previously covered by the baseline permit 
transfers to the MSGP, the effluent limitations, monitoring 
requirements and other conditions of the MSGP apply to the permittee's 
facility as appropriate based on the sector/subsector in which facility 
falls. The requirements for the new categories of facilities which have 
been added to the MSGP are those set forth in the MSGP for the sectors/
subsectors shown above in Table 2. Section III below discusses the 
differences between the baseline permit and the MSGP and the 
requirements for transferred facilities.

III. Requirements for Transferred Facilities

    In today's notice, EPA is making certain clarifications and 
interpretations regarding how certain conditions of the MSGP will apply 
to permittees transferring from the baseline general permit. These 
interpretations and clarifications address: (1) Deadlines for storm 
water pollution prevention plan revisions and implementation for 
transferring permittees; (2) MSGP sampling schedules and sample types; 
(3) the submittal of sampling data; (4) applicability of certain 
limitations; (5) the applicability of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) 
and National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA); (6) the applicability of 
the co-located activities requirements; (7) use of the NOI form; (8) 
applicability of the new North American Industry Classification System 
(NAICS); (9) non-storm water discharges; (10) releases of reportable 
quantities of hazardous substances and oil; and (11) exemptions from 
analytical monitoring. These clarifications are discussed below.
    The requirements of the MSGP, including sector-specific 
requirements were described in detail in the fact sheet accompanying 
the original issuance of the MSGP (September 29, 1995, 60 FR 50804) and 
is incorporated by reference into this fact sheet. All transferring 
facility operators should acquire a copy of the 1995 multi-sector 
general permit and study it carefully to ensure full compliance with 
all terms and conditions. Certain important requirements for facilities 
which transfer to the MSGP from the baseline general permit are 
emphasized below.

A. Notifications Requirements

    To obtain coverage under the modified MSGP, facilities which 
acquired extended coverage under the baseline industrial general permit 
in accordance with the provisions of the Administrative Procedures Act 
must submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) not later than 90 days after the 
effective date of this MSGP modification. Baseline general permittees 
that applied for and received extended coverage which are located in 
areas identified in Part II.A.9. of this modification where the permit 
is not being terminated may remain covered by the baseline permit until 
further notice from EPA. Conversely, baseline general permittees that 
applied for and received extended baseline permit coverage which are 
ineligible for MSGP coverage per Part II.A.10 must submit an 
application for an individual NPDES permit and may remain covered under 
the baseline permit until a final decision is made by EPA on their 
individual permit.
    Under today's final modification, Part II.A.9 is added to the MSGP 
which includes a 90 day period after the effective date of the modified 
MSGP for submittal of an NOI for facilities transferring to the MSGP. 
The NOI form currently in use for the MSGP can be found in Addendum B 
to the MSGP published on September 29, 1995 (60 FR 51265). For 
convenience, this form is also attached to this modification.

[[Page 52437]]

    The NOI form for the MSGP differs from the form for the original 
1992 baseline permit in that new requirements have been added to ensure 
compliance with the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and 
Endangered Species Act (ESA). A discussion of these requirements, as 
applicable to facilities transferring permit coverage to the MSGP, 
follows below:
1. Historic Preservation
    The National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) requires Federal 
agencies to take into account the effects of Federal undertakings, 
including undertakings on historic properties that are either listed 
on, or eligible for listing on, the National Register of Historic 
Places. The term ``Federal undertaking'' is defined in the existing 
NHPA regulations to include any project, activity, or program under the 
direct or indirect jurisdiction of a Federal agency that can result in 
changes in the character or use of historic properties, if any such 
historic properties are located in the area of potential effects for 
that project, activity, or program. See 36 CFR 802(o). Historic 
properties are defined in the NHPA regulations to include prehistoric 
or historic districts, sites, buildings, structures, or objects that 
are included in, or are eligible for inclusion in, the National 
Register of Historic Places. See 36 CFR 802(e).
    Federal undertakings include the EPA's issuance of general NPDES 
permits. In light of NHPA requirements, EPA included a provision in the 
eligibility requirements of the 1995 MSGP for the consideration of the 
effects to historic properties. That provision provides that an 
applicant is eligible for permit coverage only if: (1) the applicant's 
storm water discharges and best management practices (BMPs) to control 
storm water runoff do not affect a historic property, or (2) the 
applicant has obtained, and is in compliance with, a written agreement 
between the applicant and the State Historic Preservation Officer 
(SHPO) that outlines all measures to be taken by the applicant to 
mitigate or prevent adverse effects to the historic property. See Part 
I.B.6, 60 FR 51112 (September 29, 1995). When applying for permit 
coverage, applicants are required to certify in the NOI that they are 
in compliance with the Part I.B.6 eligibility requirements. Provided 
there are no other factors limiting permit eligibility, MSGP coverage 
is then granted 48 hours after the postmark on the envelope used to 
mail the NOI.
    In today's modification EPA is including two revisions with respect 
to historic properties. First, EPA is amending Part I.B.6.(ii) to 
include a reference to Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (THPOs) 
because MSGP coverage extends to Tribal lands and in recognition of the 
central role Tribal governments play in the protection of historic 
resources. Second, EPA is including guidance and a list of SHPO and 
THPO addresses in new Addendum I to the MSGP to assist applicants with 
the certification process for permit eligibility under this condition.
    Facilities being transferred from the baseline permit which cannot 
certify compliance with the NHPA requirements must submit individual 
permit applications to the permitting authority in accordance with the 
time frames set forth above for NOI submittal.
2. Endangered Species
    The ESA of 1973 requires Federal Agencies such as EPA to insure, in 
consultation with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the 
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) (also known collectively as 
the ``Services''), that any actions authorized, funded, or carried out 
by the Agency (e.g., EPA issued NPDES permits authorizing discharges to 
waters of the United States) are not likely to jeopardize the continued 
existence of any Federally-listed endangered or threatened species or 
adversely modify or destroy critical habitat of such species (see 16 
U.S.C. 1536(a)(2), 50 CFR 402 and 40 CFR 122.49(c)). This consultation 
resulted in a joint Service biological opinion issued by the FWS on 
March 31, 1995, and by the NMFS on April 5, 1995, which concluded that 
the issuance and operation of the MSGP was not likely to jeopardize the 
existence of any listed endangered or threatened species, or result in 
the adverse modification or destruction of any critical habitat. The 
MSGP contains a number of conditions to protect listed species and 
critical habitat. Permit coverage is only provided where:
     The storm water discharge(s), and the construction of Best 
Management Practices (BMPs) to control storm water runoff, are not 
likely to adversely affect species identified in Addendum H of the 
permit; or
     The applicant's activity has received previous 
authorization under the Endangered Species Act and established an 
environmental baseline that is unchanged; or,
     The applicant is implementing appropriate measures as 
required by the Director to address adverse effects.
    Addendum H of the permit contained a list of proposed and listed 
endangered and threatened species that could be affected by the 
discharges and measures to control pollutants in the discharges. The 
Addendum also provided instructions to assist applicants in determining 
whether they met the above eligibility requirements.
    Because EPA determined that this permit modification is an action 
that may affect listed endangered and threatened species, EPA 
reinitiated ESA Sec. 7 consultation on July 16, 1997. On April 24, 
1998, the US Fish and Wildlife Service and on May 1, 1998, the National 
Marine Fisheries Service provided written concurrences on EPA's 
findings that this modification is not likely to result in adverse 
effects to listed species or critical habitat.
    As a result of this consultation and in response to public comments 
on the modification, EPA has updated the species list in Addendum H to 
include species that were listed or proposed for listing since the 
Addendum H list was compiled on March 31, 1995. EPA has also decided to 
expand the list to include all of the terrestrial (i.e., non-aquatic) 
listed and proposed species in recognition that those species may be 
impacted by permitted activities such as the construction and operation 
of the BMPs. The Addendum H list will be updated on a regular basis and 
an electronic copy of that list will be made available at the Office of 
Wastewater Management website at ``http://www.epa.gov/owm''. 
Information on the availability of an electronic list is also being 
added to the Addendum H instructions. Addendum H, updated as of July 8, 
1998, has been attached in Section VII of today's final MSGP 
modification.
    EPA is not changing any other ESA-related conditions in this 
modification because it believes that the current permit conditions 
have been successful in ensuring the protection of listed and proposed 
species and critical habitat.
    To be eligible for coverage under the MSGP, facilities which are 
being transferred from the baseline permit must review the list of 
species and their locations which are contained in the updated Addendum 
H of the MSGP and which are described in the instructions for 
completing the application requirements under this permit. If an 
applicant determines that none of the species identified in the 
Addendum are found in the county in which the facility is located, then 
there is no likelihood of an adverse effect and they are eligible for 
permit coverage. Applicants must then certify that their discharges, 
and the construction of storm water BMPs, are not likely to adversely 
affect species and will be granted MSGP permit coverage 48 hours

[[Page 52438]]

after the date of the postmark on the envelope used to mail the NOI 
form, provided there are no other factors limiting permit eligibility.
    If species identified in Addendum H are found to be located in the 
same county as the facility seeking MSGP coverage, then the applicant 
must determine whether the species are in proximity to the storm water 
discharges at the facility, or any BMPs to be constructed to control 
storm water runoff. A species is in proximity to a storm water 
discharge when the species is located in the path or down gradient area 
through which or over which point source storm water flows from 
industrial activities to the point of discharge into the receiving 
water, and once discharged into the receiving water, in the immediate 
vicinity of, or nearby, the discharge point. A species is also in 
proximity if a species is located in the area of a site where storm 
water BMPs are planned to be constructed. If an applicant determines 
there are no species in proximity to the storm water discharge, or the 
BMPs to be constructed, then there is no likelihood of adversely 
affecting the species and the applicant is eligible for permit 
coverage.
    If species are in proximity to the storm water discharges or areas 
of BMP construction, as long as they have been considered as part of a 
previous ESA authorization of the applicant's activity, and the 
environmental baseline established in that authorization is unchanged, 
the applicant may be covered under the permit. The environmental 
baseline generally includes the past and present impacts of all 
Federal, state and private actions that were occurring at the time the 
initial NPDES authorization and current ESA section 7 action by EPA was 
taken. Therefore, if a permit applicant has received previous 
authorization and nothing has changed or been added to the 
environmental baseline established in the previous authorization, then 
coverage under this permit will be provided.
    In the absence of such previous authorization, if species 
identified in Addendum H are in proximity to the discharges or 
construction areas for BMPs, then the applicant must determine whether 
there is any likely adverse effect upon the species. This is done by 
the applicant conducting a further examination or investigation, or an 
alternative procedure, as described in the instructions in Addendum H 
of the permit. If the applicant determines that there is no likely 
adverse effect upon the species, then the applicant is eligible for 
permit coverage. If the applicant determines that there likely is, or 
will likely be an adverse effect, then the applicant is not eligible 
for MSGP coverage.
    All dischargers applying for coverage under the MSGP must provide 
in the application information on the Notice of Intent form: (1) A 
determination as to whether there are any species identified in 
Addendum H in proximity to the storm water discharges and BMP 
construction areas, and (2) a certification that their storm water 
discharges and the construction of BMPs to control storm water are not 
likely to adversely affect species identified in Addendum H, or are 
otherwise eligible for coverage due to a previous authorization under 
the ESA. Coverage is contingent upon the applicant's providing truthful 
information concerning certification and abiding by any conditions 
imposed by the permit.
    Dischargers (including those being transferred to the MSGP from the 
baseline permit) who are not able to determine whether there will be 
any adverse effect on species, cannot sign the certification to gain 
coverage under the MSGP and must apply to EPA for an individual NPDES 
storm water permit. The deadlines for the individual applications are 
the same as those given above for the NOIs for facilities transferred 
from the baseline permit. As appropriate, EPA will conduct ESA section 
7 consultation when issuing such individual permits.
    Regardless of the above conditions, EPA may require that a 
permittee apply for an individual NPDES permit on the basis of possible 
adverse effects on species or critical habitats. Where there are 
concerns that coverage for a particular discharger is not sufficiently 
protective of listed species, the Services (as well as any other 
interested parties) may petition EPA to require that the discharger 
obtain an individual NPDES permit and conduct an individual section 7 
consultation as appropriate.
    In addition, the Assistant Administrator for Fisheries for the 
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or his/her authorized 
representative, or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (as well as any 
other interested parties) may petition EPA to require that a permittee 
obtain an individual NPDES permit. The permittee is also required to 
make the SWPPP, annual site compliance inspection report, or other 
information available upon request to the Assistant Administrator for 
Fisheries for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or 
his/her authorized representative, or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife 
Service Regional Director, or his/her authorized representative.
    These mechanisms allow for the broadest and most efficient coverage 
for the permittee while still providing for the most efficient 
protection of endangered species. They significantly reduce the number 
of dischargers that must be considered individually and therefore allow 
the Agency and the Services to focus their resources on those 
discharges that are indeed likely to adversely affect listed species. 
Straightforward mechanisms such as these allow applicants more 
immediate access to permit coverage, and eliminates ``permit limbo'' 
for the greatest number of permitted discharges. At the same time it is 
more protective of endangered species because it allows both agencies 
to focus on the real problems, and thus, provide endangered species 
protection in a more expeditious manner.
3. North American Industry Classification System
    EPA recognizes that a new North American Industry Classification 
System (NAICS) was recently adopted by the Office of Management and 
Budget (62 FR 17288, April 9, 1997). NAICS replaces the 1987 standard 
industrial classification (SIC) code system for the collection of 
statistical economic data. However, the use of the new system for 
nonstatistical purposes is optional. EPA considered the use of NAICS 
for the modified multi-sector permit, but elected to retain the 1987 
SIC code system since the storm water regulations (40 CFR 
122.26(b)(14)) reference the existing system and this system has 
generally proven to be adequate. EPA will address the new NAICS system 
in future rule making.

B. Special Conditions

    The MSGP includes certain special conditions which are similar to 
corresponding conditions found in the baseline general permit. Except 
for the requirements for co-located facilities (Section III.B.3 below), 
permittees which have been operating under the baseline permit should 
generally be familiar with these requirements already.
1. Non-storm Water Discharges
    Non-storm water discharges are generally not authorized by either 
the MSGP or the baseline permit. However, both permits do authorize a 
list of minor non-storm discharges such as fire hydrant flushings, 
potable water sources, routine external building washdown water, 
uncontaminated ground water and certain other

[[Page 52439]]

discharges, provided the discharges are identified in the SWPPP and 
appropriate pollution prevention measures are included for the 
discharges. In addition, permittees should also check the sector-
specific SWPPP requirements in the MSGP for any additional requirements 
pertaining to non-storm water requirements.
2. Releases of Reportable Quantities of Hazardous Substances and Oil
    The MSGP and the baseline general permit include the same 
conditions pertaining to releases of reportable quantities of hazardous 
substances and oil. Such releases must be reported to the National 
Response Center and the permitting authority, and the SWPPP must be 
amended to prevent such discharges in the future.
3. Co-located Industrial Facilities
    The MSGP includes a special condition pertaining to co-located 
facilities which was not included in the baseline general permit (see 
60 FR 50813). If an industrial plant includes co-located facilities 
which fall into more than one sector of the MSGP, then the sector-
specific SWPPP and monitoring requirements for both sectors apply to 
the plant. The baseline permit had required that when an industrial 
plant includes facilities which fall into more than one monitoring 
category, then the facility overall must comply with the monitoring 
requirements of both categories. However, the baseline permit did not 
include sector-specific BMP requirements. In addition, both the 
baseline permit and the MSGP provide that if monitoring for the same 
parameter is required for more than one category (or sector), then only 
one sample analysis is required for that parameter.

C. SWPPP Requirements

    Both the baseline general permit and the MSGP require that 
permittees develop and implement SWPPPs to control the discharge of 
pollutants in storm water discharges. The SWPPPs required by the 
baseline permit included various generic BMPs for all categories of 
facilities covered by the permit. The following is a summary of the 
requirements:
     Pollution Prevention Team--the SWPPP must identify the 
individuals who are responsible for development and implementation of 
the SWPPP.
     Site Evaluation--the SWPPP must include a map of the 
facility and an assessment of the potential sources of storm water 
pollution at the facility.
     Generic BMPs including good housekeeping, preventive 
maintenance, spill prevention and response, employee training, record 
keeping, non-storm water discharge evaluation, erosion control measures 
and storm water management measures as appropriate.
     Comprehensive site inspection/compliance evaluation.
     Special requirements for Emergency Planning and Community 
Right to Know Act (EPCRA) Section 313 facilities.
    The baseline general permit required that covered facilities 
develop their SWPPPs no later than April 1, 1993, and come into 
compliance with their SWPPPs by October 1, 1993. The MSGP (as amended 
on February 9, 1996, 61 FR 5248) required that covered facilities 
develop and implement their SWPPPs by September 25, 1996. However, the 
MSGP also allows up to 3 years after permit finalization (i.e., no 
later than September 29, 1998) for completion of control measures 
identified in the SWPPP which involve construction.
    The SWPPP which is required by the MSGP includes the same basic 
BMPs which are found in the baseline general permit and also sector-
specific BMPs which are unique to the types of facilities in the 
various sectors. As such, the SWPPPs which have been developed by 
facilities which are currently operating under the baseline permit 
should already include the basic requirements of the MSGP. However, 
facilities which are transferred to the MSGP from the baseline permit 
will have to review the sector-specific BMP requirements of the MSGP 
and, as needed, upgrade their SWPPPs to comply with the requirements of 
the MSGP. Appendix B to this fact sheet summarizes the sector-specific 
requirements of the MSGP, including sector-specific SWPPP requirements, 
monitoring requirements (with a comparison to baseline permit 
requirements), numeric effluent limitations and inspection 
requirements. A more detailed description can be found in Section VIII 
of the September 29, 1995 fact sheet.
1. Deadline for SWPPP Revision and Implementation for Transferred 
Facilities
    EPA has added a special deadline to the MSGP for SWPPP revision and 
implementation for transferred facilities (Part IV.A.10). The modified 
MSGP requires SWPPP modification and implementation within 180 days 
after the effective date of the MSGP modification. However, to 
implement control measures involving construction, transferred 
facilities have until October 1, 2000, which provides approximately the 
same amount of time for implementing constructed BMPs as the original 
MSGP. During the time period prior to SWPPP upgrade, the existing 
requirements of the baseline permit apply and are incorporated into the 
MSGP.
2. Special Requirements for Facilities Subject to EPCRA Section 313 
Requirements
    The MSGP includes the same special BMP requirements for facilities 
subject to the reporting requirements of Section 313 of the EPCRA as 
are found in the baseline general permit. Both permits require certain 
additional BMPs for facilities which are required to report for ``water 
priority chemicals.'' However, the list of such chemicals in the MSGP 
(Addendum F of the MSGP) differs somewhat from the list in the baseline 
permit due to changes in EPCRA reporting requirements which occurred 
subsequent to the issuance of the baseline permit. As such, facilities 
transferring to the MSGP should check the MSGP's list of ``water 
priorities chemicals'' to determine whether the special EPCRA 
requirements would apply.
    The baseline permit also requires that the SWPPP for facilities 
subject to EPCRA Section 313 be certified by a professional engineer 
every 3 years. However, the MSGP only requires certification in 
accordance with the regular signatory requirements of the permit, i.e., 
by a responsible corporate official.
    The MSGP also provides an exemption from the EPCRA Section 313 
requirements for situations where an operator certifies that all water 
priority chemicals which are handled and/or stored on-site are only in 
gaseous or non-soluble liquid or solid forms (at atmospheric pressure 
and temperature). This exemption was not included in the baseline 
permit, and some facilities may be eligible for this exemption upon 
transfer from the baseline permit to the MSGP.

D. Monitoring and Reporting Requirements

    Both the baseline general permit and the MSGP include analytical 
storm water monitoring requirements for certain categories of 
dischargers. However, the requirements differ somewhat with regard to 
the parameters for which sampling and analysis are required, and the 
industrial categories which are affected. In addition, the MSGP (Sector 
M) does not include the provision in the baseline permit for auto 
recyclers that monitoring only be required for facilities above a 
certain

[[Page 52440]]

size. The group application monitoring data did not support such an 
exemption.
    Appendix B to this fact sheet summarizes the monitoring 
requirements of the MSGP, and the differences from the baseline permit. 
Additional information can be found in the fact sheets accompanying the 
issuance of the baseline permit (see 57 FR 41248) and the MSGP (see 60 
FR 50822). Facilities which are transferred to the MSGP from the 
baseline permit are required to comply with the requirements of the 
MSGP. The key differences are discussed below:
1. Sampling Schedule
    The MSGP differs from the baseline permit with regards to the 
schedule for analytical monitoring. The baseline permit had required 
monitoring for certain facilities once or twice each year during the 
term of the permit. The MSGP, however, requires monitoring quarterly, 
as appropriate, during years two and four of the term of the permit. 
For purposes of this monitoring, year two runs from October 1, 1996, 
through September 30, 1997. For transferred facilities and other 
dischargers obtaining MSGP coverage after September 30, 1997 (i.e., new 
dischargers, existing unpermitted dischargers and dischargers 
transitioning industrial storm water discharge permit coverage from an 
individually drafted NPDES permit to the MSGP), monitoring will only be 
required in year four (October 1, 1998, through September 30, 1999) 
since year two has already passed.
    Also, as discussed below in Section III.E, both the baseline permit 
and the MSGP authorize certain discharges subject to numeric effluent 
limitations. Section III.E discusses the limits, and the sampling and 
reporting requirements.
2. Sample Type
    The baseline general permit required grab and composite sampling 
for most parameters. As an alternative, the baseline permit also 
provided that one grab sample may be taken from a holding pond with a 
retention period greater than 24 hours. The requirements of the MSGP, 
however, have been simplified in that only a grab sample is required 
for all sectors except Sector S (air transportation) where grab and 
composite samples are required. Both the baseline permit and MSGP 
require that the grab sample be taken within the first 30 minutes of 
the discharge, unless this is impractical, in which case sampling is 
required within the first hour of discharge.
3. Quarterly Visual Examination Requirements of the MSGP
    The MSGP requires quarterly visual examinations of storm water 
discharges for all sectors except Sector S, which covers air 
transportation. A full description of the requirements for the visual 
examinations is found in Section VI.E.8 of the fact sheet accompanying 
the issuance of the MSGP. Basically, the MSGP requires that grab 
samples of storm water discharges be taken and examined visually for 
the presence of color, odor, clarity, floating solids, settled solids, 
suspended solids, foam, oil sheen or other obvious indicators of storm 
water pollution. The grab samples must be taken within the first 30 
minutes after storm water discharges begin, or as soon as practicable, 
but not longer than 1 hour after discharges begin. The sampling must be 
conducted quarterly during the following time periods: January-March, 
April-June, July-September and October-December of each year. The 
reports summarizing these quarterly visual storm water examinations 
must be maintained on-site with the SWPPP.
    The baseline general permit did not include requirements for visual 
examinations and facilities which are transferred to the MSGP will have 
to comply with these additional sampling requirements. For transferred 
facilities, these sampling requirements would begin in the first full 
calendar quarter of coverage of the MSGP. EPA believes that this type 
of sampling provides an inexpensive means for permittees to quickly 
assess the effectiveness of their SWPPPs and make any necessary 
modifications to address the results of the visual examinations.
4. Exemptions from Analytical Monitoring
    Both the MSGP and the baseline general permit include certain 
provisions for exemptions from analytical monitoring. Both permits 
provide that facilities need not monitor if they certify that no 
significant materials or industrial activities are exposed to storm 
water. For the MSGP, however, the certification is on a pollutant-by-
pollutant, outfall-by-outfall basis; i.e., if there are no exposed 
sources of a particular pollutant, then monitoring for that pollutant 
at that outfall does not need to be conducted. For the baseline permit, 
monitoring must be conducted for the entire suite of pollutants 
required by the permit if any industrial materials or activities are 
exposed.
    The MSGP also includes an exemption from monitoring (again on a 
pollutant-by-pollutant basis) in the fourth year of the permit if the 
monitoring results of the second year are below certain benchmark 
values which are found below in Table 3:

    Note that the benchmark value for total mercury listed above is 
correctly listed as 0.0024 mg/L. The benchmark value for total mercury 
in the original publication of the MSGP (60 FR 50826) had been 
incorrectly listed as 10.0024 mg/L. In addition, as further discussed 
in EPA's notice of technical correction of February 9, 1996 (61 FR 
5248), the benchmark for zinc is correctly listed above as 0.117 mg/l 
rather than 0.065 mg/l which was an error in the original MSGP.
    EPA believes that monitoring results below these benchmarks 
indicate that a generally effective SWPPP is being implemented at a 
facility, and that further monitoring should not be required. The 
exemption also provides an incentive for facilities to implement an 
effective SWPPP which will reduce pollutant discharges.
    The baseline permit required continued analytical monitoring for 
certain categories of facilities throughout the term of the permit 
regardless of sampling results. For facilities which are transferred to 
the MSGP from the baseline industrial permit, monitoring is not 
required in year four for particular pollutants if the average of the 
two most recent monitoring results conducted for the baseline permit 
are below the benchmarks. However, if monitoring was not conducted for 
the appropriate pollutants, then the exemption would not be available. 
In addition, the exemption would not be available if the industrial 
activities at a facility have changed to the extent that the most 
recent monitoring results do not reflect discharges from current 
activities.
    It should also be pointed out that the monitoring exemption 
discussed above based on the absence of exposure at a facility is 
available in year 4 of the MSGP regardless of past monitoring results. 
This exemption is available for facilities already covered by the MSGP 
and those to be transferred to the MSGP from the baseline permit. EPA 
believes that the exemption provides an incentive for facilities to 
eliminate exposure of materials and activities to storm water, thereby 
reducing pollutant discharges. We should also point out, however, that 
the discharges discussed in Section III.E below which are subject to 
numeric effluent limitations are not eligible for any of the exemptions 
from monitoring.
5. Reporting Requirements
    The baseline permit required annual reporting of analytical 
monitoring results for those facilities subject to semi-annual 
monitoring. Facilities which are subject to annual monitoring were 
required to retain the results on-site. The MSGP requires that 
monitoring results be submitted to the permitting authority at the end 
of each year in which sampling is required (postmarked by March 31 of 
the year following the monitoring period, e.g., by March 31, 2000, for 
the year four monitoring period). The results of the quarterly visual 
examinations need not be

[[Page 52442]]

submitted, but must be retained on-site in the SWPPP.

E. Numeric Effluent Limitations

    The MSGP includes the same numeric effluent limitations for coal 
pile runoff as were found in the baseline general permit. These limits 
are: (1) maximum of 50 mg/L for total suspended solids (TSS) and a pH 
range of 6-9 standard units. Any untreated overflow from facilities 
designed, constructed and operated to treat the runoff associated with 
a 10-year, 24-hour rainfall event is not subject to the 50 mg/L limit 
for TSS. Dischargers previously covered under the baseline general 
permit must be compliant with this limitation upon submittal of the NOI 
for coverage under MSGP.
    The baseline general permit did not authorize storm water 
discharges subject to numeric effluent limitation guidelines (ELGs). 
The MSGP, however, does authorize certain storm water discharges 
subject to ELGs including the coal pile runoff at steam electric power 
plants, and for the following categories: Phosphate fertilizer 
manufacturing (40 CFR part 418), asphalt paving and roofing emulsions 
(40 CFR part 443), and cement manufacturing materials storage pile 
runoff (40 CFR part 411). In addition, the modified MSGP authorizes 
mine dewatering discharges from construction sand and gravel, 
industrial sand, and crushed stone facilities (40 CFR Part 436) in EPA 
Regions I, II, VI, X and Arizona. These numeric effluent limitations 
can be found in Appendix B to this fact sheet.
    The baseline permit required semi-annual monitoring (with annual 
reporting) of coal pile runoff. However, the MSGP only requires annual 
monitoring for all of the discharges subject to numeric effluent limits 
(except mine dewatering discharges in Sector J where the monitoring 
frequency is quarterly). The annual monitoring periods run from October 
1 through September 30 of each year, and reporting is required by 
November 30 of each year. The quarterly monitoring results are due no 
later than the last day of the month following the collection of the 
sample.

F. Miscellaneous Permitting Actions

    In today's notice, EPA has also made the following limited specific 
changes to the MSGP as published on September 29, 1995 (60 FR 50804): 
(1) authorization of mine dewatering discharges from construction sand 
and gravel, industrial sand, and crushed stone mines in EPA Regions I, 
II and X; (2) inclusion in Sector A of the MSGP of the effluent 
limitation guideline in 40 CFR Part 429 Subpart I for discharges 
resulting from spray down of lumber and wood products in storage yards 
(wet decking); (3) clarification that Sectors X and AA authorize 
discharges from all facilities in major SIC groups 27 and 34 
respectively; and (4) addition of new sector (Sector AD) to the MSGP to 
authorize discharges from Phase I facilities which may not fall into 
one of the sectors of the modified MSGP, and selected Phase II 
discharges which are designated for permitting in accordance with 40 
CFR 122.26(g)(1)(i). These are discussed below.
1. Coverage of Mine Dewatering Discharges in EPA Regions I, II and X
    Sector J of the original MSGP authorized mine dewatering discharges 
composed entirely of storm water or ground water seepage from 
construction sand and gravel, industrial sand and crushed stone mines 
in EPA Region VI and Arizona. These discharges are subject to effluent 
limitations guidelines found at 40 CFR Part 436, Subparts B, C and D. 
An individual permit or an alternate general permit was needed for 
these types of discharges in areas other than Region VI and Arizona. 
For increased permitting flexibility, today's modification extends this 
authorization to facilities in the areas of EPA Regions I, II and X 
where EPA is the NPDES regulating authority (see ``Areas of Coverage'' 
at the beginning of the Final Permit Modifications section of this 
notice to identify specific areas in these Regions where the 
modifications apply). This action avoids the need to issue individual 
NPDES permits, or an alternate general permit, for discharges in these 
areas. As discussed in the Response to Public Comments found in 
Appendix A of this Fact Sheet, today's final action includes EPA Region 
I which increased the affected area beyond that which was proposed by 
the Agency on July 11, 1997.
2. Discharges Resulting From Spray Down of Lumber and Wood Products in 
Storage Yards in Sector A
    The MSGP authorizes non-storm water discharges resulting from the 
spray down of lumber and wood products in storage yards (wet decking), 
provided that no chemical additives are used in the spray and no 
chemicals are applied to the wood during storage. The MSGP, however, 
inadvertently omitted the numerical effluent limitation guideline in 40 
CFR part 429, Subpart I which applies to such discharges. Accordingly, 
EPA has modified the MSGP to incorporate the applicable effluent 
limitation guideline and appropriate monitoring requirements for 
clarification.
    The numerical limits which apply to these non-storm water 
discharges are: there shall be no debris discharged and the pH shall 
range from 6.0 to 9.0. The term ``debris'' refers to woody material 
such as bark, twigs, branches, heartwood or sapwood that does not pass 
through a 2.54 cm (1.0 inch) diameter round opening and is present in 
the discharge from a wet storage facility. EPA has included these 
effluent limitations and also a requirement for annual monitoring of 
the discharges.
3. Clarification of Coverage in Sectors X and AA of the MSGP
    Sectors X and AA of the MSGP contain narrative descriptions of 
industrial activities, SIC code major group listings and specific four 
digit SIC codes listings for which coverage would be available. These 
three methods of describing the types of industry allowed coverage 
under these two sectors has proven to be confusing and EPA is now 
clarifying the coverage of these two sectors in this modification.
    Sector X was intended by EPA to cover all industry in major SIC 
group 27 (printing, publishing and allied industries), and Sector AA 
was intended to cover all industry in major SIC group 34. EPA has been 
accepting NOIs from all facilities within these two major SIC groups, 
regardless of the four digit SIC code listings, which mistakenly, have 
been interpreted to be more restrictive. Through this clarification, 
EPA wants to make it clear that all qualifying industries in these two 
major groups can make use of the MSGP.
4. Addition of Sector AD to the MSGP
    EPA has also added another sector to the MSGP (Sector AD) to cover 
discharges from Phase I facilities which may not fall into one of the 
sectors of the final modified MSGP, and to provide a readily available 
means for covering many of the Phase II storm water facilities which 
are designated for permitting prior to the permit application deadline 
for Phase II sources of August 7, 2001. As discussed earlier, EPA has 
modified the MSGP to include all facilities which were authorized under 
the baseline general permit, but excluded from the MSGP. Although EPA 
believes that all such previously excluded facilities have been 
identified and included in the final modified MSGP, Sector AD has been 
added to cover any inadvertent omissions.
    For Phase II storm water sources, NPDES regulations at 40 CFR 
122.26(g)(1)(i) provide that permit applications may be required within 
180

[[Page 52443]]

days of notice for discharges which contribute to a violation of a 
water quality standard, or are determined to be significant sources of 
pollutants. For discharges other than municipal separate storm sewer 
discharges, 40 CFR 122.26(g)(2) provides that individual permit 
applications may be required in accordance with 40 CFR 122.26(c)(1), or 
an NOI under a general permit may be required. Sector AD provides a 
means through which general permit coverage may be obtained for many 
designated Phase II facilities and as such, facilitates implementation 
of the requirements of 40 CFR 122.26(g)(1)(i). However, for cases where 
Sector AD is inappropriate, individual permits or an alternate general 
permit are required. In addition, Part I.B.3.f of the MSGP does not 
authorize coverage for discharges which may be contributing to a 
violation of a water quality standard. As such, for discharges 
permitted under 40 CFR 122.26(g)(1)(i), Sector AD could only be used 
for discharges which are determined to be a significant source of 
pollutants.
    Sector AD is added in Part XI.AD of the MSGP. The SWPPP 
requirements for this sector are the same as in the baseline general 
permit to ensure flexibility given the broad universe of potential 
types of facilities which may be covered. Also, no analytical 
monitoring requirements are included for the new sector; however, 
quarterly visual examinations are required as in most other sectors. In 
addition, the requirements common to all sectors of the MSGP which are 
set forth in Parts I-X and XII of the MSGP also apply to Sector AD.
5. Modification of Inspection Requirements for Inactive Oil and Gas 
Extraction Facilities in Sector I
    As discussed further in the Summary of Responses to Public 
Comments, EPA has modified the inspection requirements for inactive oil 
and gas extraction facilities which are remotely located and unstaffed 
(within major SIC group 13) covered by Sector I. The modification 
provides that only annual inspections are required (rather than 
quarterly or semi-annual inspections) for inactive facilities which are 
remotely located and unstaffed. This modification is being made in 
response to concerns regarding the practicality of quarterly or semi-
annual inspections for inactive, unstaffed facilities, particularly 
those in remote areas. Sector J (for mineral mining and processing) 
also requires only annual inspections for inactive facilities and EPA 
believes that this requirement is appropriate for inactive oil and gas 
extraction facilities which are remotely located and unstaffed as well.

G. Response to National Mining Association Concerning Sector G of the 
MSGP

    As discussed above, the MSGP authorizes selected storm water 
discharges subject to ELGs. However, Sector G for the ore mining and 
dressing industry is not among the sectors for which the MSGP 
authorizes such discharges. In section VIII.G of the fact sheet for the 
MSGP, EPA provided a table (Table G-4) regarding the applicability of 
ELGs to storm water discharges from ore mining operations. On October 
10, 1995, the National Mining Association (NMA) challenged the 
interpretations of the ELGs contained in Table G-4, particularly the 
interpretation of the term ``mine drainage'' to include runoff from 
waste rock and overburden represented by the Table (National Mining 
Association v. EPA, No. 95-3519 (8th Cir.)).
    On October 22, 1997 (62 FR 54950), EPA proposed a clarification to 
the interpretation in Table G-4 and modification of Sector G of the 
MSGP in response to the challenge from the NMA. On August 7, 1998, EPA 
published final revisions to Sector G in the Federal Register which 
modified Table G-4 to only include those specific storm water 
discharges which are authorized by the MSGP and are not subject to 
ELGs. Monitoring requirements for storm water discharges from waste 
rock and overburden piles were also included in the final revisions.

IV. Cost Estimates

    Cost estimates for the MSGP were included with the final fact sheet 
accompanying the issuance of the MSGP on September 29, 1995 and are not 
being repeated here. However, costs for the facilities being 
transferred to the MSGP from the baseline permit are expected to be 
lower than for those initially applying for coverage under the MSGP 
since the transferred facilities will already have responded to some of 
the requirements of the MSGP.

[[Page 52444]]

V. Economic Impact (Executive Order 12866)

    Under Executive Order 12866 [58 FR 51735 (October 4, 1993)], the 
Agency must determine whether the regulatory action is ``significant'' 
and therefore subject to OMB review and the requirements of the 
Executive Order. The Order defines ``significant regulatory action'' as 
one that is likely to result in a rule that may have an annual effect 
on the economy of $100 million or more or adversely affect in a 
material way the economy, a sector of the economy, productivity, 
competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State, 
local, or tribal governments or communities; create a serious 
inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by 
another agency; materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, 
grants, user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of 
recipients thereof; or raise novel legal or policy issues arising out 
of legal mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set 
forth in the Executive Order.
    EPA has determined that this modified general permit is not a 
``significant regulatory action'' under the terms of Executive Order 
12866 and is therefore not subject to formal OMB review prior to 
proposal.

VI. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    Section 201 of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA), P.L. 104-4, 
generally requires Federal agencies to assess the effects of their 
``regulatory actions'' on State, local, and tribal governments and the 
private sector. UMRA uses the term ``regulatory actions'' to refer to 
regulations. (See, e.g., UMRA section 201, ``Each agency shall * * * 
assess the effects of Federal regulatory actions * * * (other than to 
the extent that such regulations incorporate requirements specifically 
set forth in law)'' (emphasis added)). UMRA section 102 defines 
``regulation'' by reference to 2 U.S.C. 658 which in turn defines 
``regulation'' and ``rule'' by reference to section 601(2) of the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA). That section of the RFA defines 
``rule'' as ``any rule for which the agency publishes a notice of 
proposed rulemaking pursuant to section 553(b) of [the Administrative 
Procedure Act (APA)], or any other law * * *''
    As discussed in the RFA section of this notice, NPDES general 
permits are not ``rules'' under the APA and thus not subject to the APA 
requirement to publish a notice of proposed rulemaking. NPDES general 
permits are also not subject to such a requirement under the CWA. While 
EPA publishes a notice to solicit public comment on draft general 
permits, it does so pursuant to the CWA section 402(a) requirement to 
provide ``an opportunity for a hearing.'' Thus, NPDES general permits 
are not ``rules'' for RFA or UMRA purposes.
    EPA has determined that the final modifications will not contain a 
Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 million or more 
for State, local and Tribal governments, in the aggregate, or the 
private sector in any one year.
    The Agency also believes that the final modifications will not 
significantly nor uniquely affect small governments. For UMRA purposes, 
``small governments'' is defined by reference to the definition of 
``small governmental jurisdiction'' under the RFA. (See UMRA section 
102(1), referencing 2 U.S.C. 658, which references section 601(5) of 
the RFA.) ``Small governmental jurisdiction'' means governments of 
cities, counties, towns, etc., with a population of less than 50,000, 
unless the agency establishes an alternative definition.
    The final modifications also will not uniquely affect small 
governments because compliance with the final permit conditions affects 
small governments in the same manner as any other entities seeking 
coverage under the modified permit.

VII. Paperwork Reduction Act

    EPA has reviewed the requirements imposed on regulated facilities 
resulting from the final permitting actions under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1980, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. The information 
collection requirements of the MSGP have already been approved in 
previous submissions made for the NPDES permit program under the 
provisions of the Clean Water Act.

VIII. Regulatory Flexibility Act

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., EPA is 
required to prepare a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis to assess the 
impact of rules on small entities. Under 5 U.S.C. 605(b), no Regulatory 
Flexibility Analysis is required where the head of the Agency certifies 
that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities.
    The Agency has determined that the permit modification being 
published today is not subject to the Regulatory Flexibility Act 
(``RFA''). By its terms, the RFA only applies to rules subject to 
notice-and-comment rulemaking requirements under the Administrative 
Procedure Act (``APA'') or any other statute. Today's permit 
modification is not subject to notice and comment requirements under 
the APA or any other statute because the APA defines ``rules'' in a 
manner that excludes permits. See APA section 551 (4), (6), and (8). 
The APA distinguishes between agency action that is a ``rule'' and 
agency action that is an ``order.'' An order is any final agency 
disposition, including agency action in issuing licenses or permits, in 
a matter other than rulemaking. Adjudication is the agency process for 
formulating an order and rulemaking the process for formulating a rule. 
The requirements of APA section 553 apply only to the issuance of 
``rules.'' Informal adjudications, which typically include agency 
process for issuing permits, are not rules and are not subject to the 
rulemaking requirements of section 553(b). In the Agency's view, the 
issuance by EPA of a license (in the form of an NPDES general permit) 
that may apply to a large number of different dischargers does not 
necessarily convert the permit issuance of the general permit from an 
adjudication to rulemaking. The Agency has explained in further detail 
its reasons for concluding that issuance of a general NPDES permit is 
not subject to the RFA at 63 FR 7898 (February 17, 1998).
    Today's final permit modification actions will provide small 
entities the opportunity to obtain storm water permit coverage under 
the MSGP, which was originally developed based on the group application 
process. The group application information submitted to EPA provided a 
basis for the development of storm water permit conditions tailored 
specifically for each industry. Today's action expands applicability 
provisions for some sectors so that permittees previously authorized 
under the expired Baseline Industrial General Permit may be eligible 
for authorization. Today's modifications also create a ``default'' 
category for permittees covered by the expired baseline permit where 
there is no applicable or relevant industrial sector category in the 
MSGP. The MSGP requirements were designed to minimize significant 
administrative and economic impacts on small entities. Transfer of 
permit coverage from the baseline permit to the MSGP should not have a 
significant impact on industry in general. Moreover, the MSGP reduces a 
significant burden on regulated sources of applying for individual 
permits.

X. Notice of Final MSGP for American Samoa and the Commonwealth of 
the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI)

    The draft MSGP was proposed by EPA on November 19, 1993 (58 FR 
61146), and American Samoa and the CNMI were proposed to be included 
among the areas of coverage of the MSGP. However, at the time of 
issuance of the final MSGP for most areas (September 29, 1995), the 
American Samoa EPA and the Division of Environmental Quality of CNMI 
had not completed their review of the MSGP for certification purposes 
pursuant to Section 401 of the CWA. As such, EPA did not issue the MSGP 
for American Samoa and CNMI at that time.
    On September 5, 1997 and October 6, 1997, respectively, the CNMI 
Division of Environmental Quality and the American Samoa EPA provided 
their 401 certifications for the MSGP (including today's 
modifications). The certifications also include certain special 
conditions necessary to ensure compliance with the CWA. Today, EPA is 
providing notice of the issuance of the final MSGP for American Samoa 
and CNMI, including the special conditions which were required. The 
area of coverage of the MSGP is being revised today to include American 
Samoa and CNMI among the areas for which discharges may be authorized. 
The other modifications of the MSGP which are discussed elsewhere in 
this fact sheet also apply to the MSGP issued for American Samoa and 
CNMI. The 401 certification conditions required by American Samoa and 
CNMI are found in Part XII of today's revised MSGP.
    The MSGP includes industry-specific sections that describe the 
storm water pollution prevention plan requirements, numeric effluent 
limitations and monitoring requirements for the specific industries. 
These industry-specific sections are contained in Part XI of the MSGP 
and are described in Part VIII of the fact sheet published on September 
29, 1995. There are also a number of permit requirements that apply to 
all industries which are found elsewhere in the MSGP and described in 
the fact sheet.
    Today's notice incorporates by reference the permit terms and 
conditions set forth at 60 FR 51108-51255 published on September 29, 
1995, and also incorporates by reference the technical corrections of 
February 9, 1996 (61 FR 5251-5254) and February 20, 1996 (61 FR 6412). 
These requirements may be found in Parts I through XI of the permit.

A. Contacts

    Notices of Intent (NOIs) to be covered under the MSGP and Notices 
of Termination (NOTs) to terminate coverage under the MSGP must be sent 
to the Storm Water Notice of Intent Processing Center (see address 
below). The complete administrative record for the MSGP is available 
through the Water Docket MC-4101, Environmental Protection Agency, 401 
M Street SW, Washington, D.C. 20460. A reasonable fee may be charged 
for copying.
    Notice of Intent Address. Notices of Intent to be authorized to 
discharge under the MSGP should be sent to: NOI/NOT Processing Center 
(4203), 401 M Street SW, Washington, D.C. 20460.
    Address for Other Submittals. Other submittals of information 
required under the MSGP for American Samoa and CNMI should be sent to 
EPA, Region 9, Water Division (WTR-7), 75 Hawthorne Street, San 
Francisco, CA 94105.

B. 401 Certification

    Section 401 of the CWA provides that no Federal license or permit, 
including NPDES permits, to conduct any activity that may result in any 
discharge into navigable waters, shall be granted until the state in 
which the discharge originates certifies that the discharge will comply 
with the applicable provisions of Sections 301, 302, 303, 306 and 307 
of the CWA.
    For American Samoa, the following special conditions were included 
with its 401 certification:
    1. NOIs must be sent to the American Samoa EPA simultaneously with 
submittal to EPA.
    2. Storm water pollution prevention plans (SWPPPs) must be 
submitted to the American Samoa EPA for review and approval. (Although 
the American Samoa EPA did not specify a deadline for submittal, it is 
presumed that submittal is required as soon as the SWPPP is completed.)
    For CNMI, the following special conditions were included with its 
401 certification:
    1. NOIs submitted to the CNMI DEQ must be postmarked 7 days prior 
to any storm water discharges.
    2. The NOI which is submitted to CNMI must be accompanied by a 
letter from the CNMI DEQ approving the SWPPP.
    3. SWPPPs required by the permit must be submitted to the CNMI DEQ 
for review and approval along with applicable fees associated with a 
401 Water Quality Certification prior to submittal of an NOI to EPA and 
the CNMI DEQ.
    4. NOIs must be submitted to the CNMI DEQ and EPA Region 9 as well 
as the regular NOI address in Washington, D.C.
    The 401 certification requirements for American Samoa and CNMI are 
added to Part XII of the MSGP in the section for EPA Region 9 
requirements.

C. Deadlines

    NOI Submittal. NOIs for facilities in CNMI must be submitted no 
later than 90 days after today's date which is the effective date of 
the permit. This is consistent with the time frame for NOI submittal of 
the original MSGP issued on September 29, 1995. Although the NOI 
deadline of the original MSGP was extended 90 additional days, EPA does 
not believe this should be necessary in CNMI given the relatively small 
number of facilities in CNMI. A special condition was added to the MSGP 
(Part II.A.11) to clarify the deadline for NOI submittal for CNMI since 
the baseline general permit was never issued for CNMI. Permittees in 
CNMI will be requesting initial permit coverage under the MSGP rather 
than transferring from the baseline permit to the MSGP.
    Facilities in American Samoa transferring to the MSGP from the 
baseline permit will also have 90 days to request coverage under the 
MSGP, which is the same amount of time given to any other permittees 
transferring to the MSGP.
    SWPPP Preparation and Compliance. For facilities in CNMI, 
preparation and compliance with SWPPPs must be completed no later than 
270 days after

[[Page 52446]]

the date of today's MSGP issuance. This provides the same amount of 
time that was provided in the original MSGP of September 29, 1995. 
However, for BMPs involving construction, the deadline is October 1, 
2000, which provides roughly the same amount of time as provided by the 
original MSGP.
    The expiration date for the MSGP for American Samoa and CNMI has 
been set at October 1, 2000, which is the same expiration date for 
areas covered by the September 29, 1995 MSGP. Although this results in 
a permit term somewhat less than the usual five years, alignment of the 
expiration dates will facilitate permit reissuance.

D. Paperwork Reduction Act

    EPA has reviewed the requirements imposed on regulated facilities 
in the final MSGP for American Samoa and CNMI under the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. The information 
collection requirements in today's final notice for American Samoa and 
CNMI have already been approved by the Office of Management and Budget 
in previous submissions made for the NPDES permit program under the 
provisions of the CWA.

E. Considerations Under Other Federal Laws

    For the MSGP issued for American Samoa and CNMI by today's notice, 
EPA is required to conduct and certify certain analyses under the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., and the Unfunded 
Mandates Reform Act, Pub. L. No. 104-4. By today's action, EPA adopts, 
incorporates, and certifies the relevant findings under the Regulatory 
Flexibility Act and the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act made in the 
September 29, 1995 MSGP (and elsewhere in this fact sheet for today's 
modifications of the MSGP) for the purposes of the MSGP issued for 
American Samoa and CNMI.

F. Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., EPA is 
required to prepare a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis to assess the 
impact of rules on small entities. Under 5 U.S.C. 605(b), no Regulatory 
Flexibility Analysis is required where the head of the Agency certifies 
that the rule will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities.
    Today's permit will provide any small entity the opportunity to 
obtain storm water permit coverage as a result of the group application 
process. Group applications provided small entities a mechanism to 
reduce their permit application burden by grouping together with other 
industrial facilities and submitting a common permit application with 
reduced monitoring requirements and shared costs. The group application 
information submitted to EPA provided a basis for the development of 
storm water permit conditions tailored specifically for each industry. 
The permit requirements have been designed to minimize significant 
administrative and economic impacts on small entities and should not 
have a significant impact on industry in general. Moreover, the permit 
reduces a significant burden on regulated sources of applying for 
individual permits.
    Accordingly, I hereby certify consistent with 5 U.S.C. 605(b) that 
this permit will not have a significant impact on a substantial number 
of small entities.

    Dated: July 18, 1998.

Acting Regional Administrator, Region 9.

Appendix A--Summary of Responses To Public Comments on the July 11, 
1997, Proposal To Modify the MSGP and Terminate the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit

    The following discussion is a summary of the major issues 
identified by EPA that were raised during the public comment period 
regarding the proposal to modify the MSGP and terminate the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit, along with EPA's response to each major 
issue. This summary aggregates comments by similarity of the issues. A 
comprehensive discussion of each comment that was raised is provided in 
a separate document which is maintained by EPA as a part of the record 
for these permitting actions.

Notice of Intent Comments

    Several comments were received concerning the need for EPA to 
streamline the permit process and reduce the administrative burden on 
the regulated community for permittees that chose to remain under the 
Baseline Industrial General Permit (BGP) after its expiration date. 
Comments included the following: The procedure required by the BGP for 
permittees to follow to obtain extended coverage beyond the permit's 
expiration date was confusing and cumbersome (i.e., submission of a NOI 
between August 1, 1997, and 2 days prior to the expiration date); the 
submission of an NOI for extended coverage under the BGP, followed by 
submission of another NOI at a later date to transition coverage to the 
MSGP and submission of a Notice of Termination (NOT) to end BGP 
coverage would be especially burdensome on companies with multiple 
facilities; and, the timing of the MSGP permit modification with the 
changeover from the expiring BGP to the MSGP was arbitrary and 
therefore burdensome on the regulated community.
    In response, EPA acknowledges that the permit process could have 
been improved but doing so would have required that EPA draft, propose 
and finalize a modification to Part VII.B of the BGP (i.e., Part VII.B 
of the BGP requires that permittees submit a second NOI during the 
period of August 1, 1997, through September 29, 1997, if they wish to 
maintain permit coverage beyond the expiration date of October 1, 
1997). This process may not have been completed in a timely manner 
(i.e., before the permit's expiration date) and would have diverted 
limited Agency resources from the more important task of modifying the 
MSGP. Also, the submission of a NOT to end BGP coverage when a 
permittee submits its NOI for transition to the MSGP is not a permit 
requirement (see Part IX.A of the BGP), but does assist EPA with its 
database management activities. Furthermore, under Part VII.B of the 
MSGP (Continuation of the Expired Permit; 60 FR 51120), permittees are 
not required to submit a second NOI to remain covered beyond the 
expiration date of that permit. Another NOI would only have to be 
submitted to obtain coverage under a new or alternate general permit.
    One commenter suggested that EPA automatically extend permit 
coverage for BGP permittees under the authority of the Administrative 
Procedure Act (APA). Another commenter suggested that EPA provide 
permittees with a ``post card'' type notice to submit instead of 
another NOI to facilitate the process. Yet another commenter suggested 
that EPA consider BGP permittees automatically extended after the 
expiration date unless they specifically indicate an intention to 
terminate permit coverage, or that the Agency will not take enforcement 
action against any permittee that fails to submit a NOI to extend 
permit coverage.
    In response, EPA notes that Part VII.B of the BGP requires that 
permittees submit a second NOI during the period of August 1, 1997, 
through September 29, 1997, if they wish to maintain permit coverage 
beyond the expiration date of October 1, 1997. Development and 
distribution of a ``post card'' type notice for BGP permittees to 
submit in lieu of a NOI would have conflicted with this permit 
requirement. Furthermore, the NOI is an official

[[Page 52447]]

Agency form approved by the US Office of Management and Budget and is 
required for storm water permittee or applicant use where directed by 
permit conditions. To change these permit requirements and allow 
automatic extensions or use of ``post card'' type notices as the 
commenters suggested would have required that EPA draft, propose and 
finalize a modification to the BGP. As mentioned above, this process 
may not have been completed in a timely manner (i.e., before the 
permit's expiration date) and would have diverted limited Agency 
resources from the more important task of modifying the MSGP. To assist 
permittees with understanding their options in view of the pending 
expiration of the permit, EPA sent a letter to all BGP permittees in 
August 1997 which described in detail their permitting options (i.e., 
submission of a NOI to either transition to the MSGP permit or remain 
covered under the BGP past its expiration date). Finally, failure by a 
BGP permittee to submit a NOI for extended coverage would be a permit 
violation and may subject the permittee to potential enforcement 
action.
    Similar comments were received concerning the need for BGP 
permittees to submit another NOI to transfer coverage to the MSGP, and 
that EPA should do this automatically to reduce the administrative 
burden on both permittees and the Agency. In response, EPA notes that 
according to NPDES permit regulations found at 40 CFR 122.28(b)(2), 
dischargers seeking coverage under a general permit such as the MSGP 
must submit a Notice of Intent to EPA. Further, though the BGP and the 
MSGP are similar, they are separate NPDES permits with specific 
eligibility requirements and application procedures which must be 
followed when applying for permit coverage. Applying for and receiving 
permit coverage under one does not mean that a permittee has also 
automatically received coverage under the other. This is especially 
evident since there are specific questions and certification provisions 
concerning the Endangered Species Act and the National Historic 
Preservation Act on the current NOI form (OMB No. 2040-0086) which MSGP 
applicants must respond to but not BGP applicants.
    Several commenters were confused whether a statement in the 
modification proposal (62 FR 37455) that BGP permittees were eligible 
for voluntary transferral to the MSGP also applied to ``orphan'' 
facilities (i.e., BGP permittees who, prior to today's final MSGP 
permit modification, were not eligible for transfer to the MSGP). In 
response, EPA is providing clarification that the option to voluntarily 
transfer to the MSGP from the BGP applied only to non-orphan facilities 
since orphan facilities were not eligible for transfer to the MSGP at 
the time of the publication of the proposed modifications (July 11, 
1997) and only became eligible through today's final publication of the 
modifications to the MSGP.
    One commenter agreed with EPA's position to not modify the MSGP to 
require the use of the new North American Industry Classification 
System (NAICS) in lieu of the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification 
(SIC) Manual which has been used by the MSGP since its original 
publication in 1995. EPA agrees with the commenter's assertion that 
switching to the new NAICS would create unnecessary confusion in the 
MSGP's regulated community. Further, EPA believes that a revision to 
the definition of ``storm water associated with industrial activity'' 
should be completed before any such permit modification is undertaken 
since the definition, which is the first step in determining whether a 
facility needs to apply for permit coverage, is currently based on the 
SIC manual and not on the NAICS.
    Several commenters suggested that EPA introduce (propose) the new 
expanded NOI form developed by EPA in conjunction with the Urban Wet 
Weather Flows Federal Advisory Committee for use by industrial storm 
water dischargers. The commenters stated that the expanded NOI form 
would require facilities to not only identify the receiving water body 
as the current NOI form does, but also quantify storm water flows 
thereby improving applicants' awareness of the actual effect their 
storm water discharges have on water bodies. The expanded NOI form 
would also require permittees to identify their storm water management 
practices, something that is not required by the current NOI form. The 
commenters stated that this would improve the applicants' awareness of 
storm water pollution prevention as well as the myriad of practices 
which can be used to decrease the discharge of pollutants. Furthermore, 
the expanded NOI form would provide information which EPA and State 
agencies could use to base resource allocations on by focusing on 
potential problem facilities. Finally, the expanded form would vastly 
increase citizen access to meaningful information, thereby improving 
credibility of the program. The commenters argued that EPA should 
employ these valuable tools in the permit modification rather than 
delaying the benefits that the expanded NOI form would provide. In 
response, EPA concurs with the commenters suggestions and will be 
proposing the expanded NOI form for public comment in the near future. 
However, the expanded NOI form has not yet been approved by the Office 
of Management and Budget and is not ready for use in today's MSGP 
modification.
    Several commenters stated that the certification language contained 
on the NOI should include a provision that the person signing the form 
should not only certify ``To the best of my knowledge * * *'', but 
should also make a reasonable investigation of the facts used to 
complete the form. They also stated that ignorance should not be a 
shield (from potential liability). In response, EPA believes that the 
commenters are referring to Box 2 of the current NOI form which, as 
stated in the box, is for MSGP applicants only. However, the provisions 
contained in Box 1 apply to all people who sign and date the NOI. EPA 
believes that the certification statement contained in Box 1 
sufficiently addresses the commenters' concerns: ``I certify under 
penalty of law that this document and all attachments were prepared 
under my direction or supervision in accordance with a system designed 
to assure that qualified personnel properly gather and evaluate the 
information submitted. Based on my inquiry of the person or persons who 
manage the system, or those persons directly responsible for gathering 
the information, the information submitted is, to the best of my 
knowledge, true, accurate, and complete. I am aware that there are 
significant penalties for submitting false information, including the 
possibility of fine and imprisonment for knowing violations.'' This 
language comes from NPDES regulations at 40 CFR 122.22. Consequently, 
no change to the current NOI form will be proposed. Also, EPA intends 
to use the same language when proposing the expanded NOI form in the 
near future.

Deadlines for Submitting Notices of Intent (NOIs) and for SWPPP 
Compliance

    The proposal of July 11, 1997, provided 30 days after the effective 
date of the MSGP modification for NOI submittal for facilities 
transferring to the MSGP from the baseline industrial permit. A 90 day 
period after the effective date of the modification was proposed for 
upgrading SWPPPs as necessary to comply with the provisions of the 
MSGP, and facilities requiring BMP construction would be allowed up to 
September 29, 1998. Several commenters argued that all three of these 
time periods were too short, and

[[Page 52448]]

various extensions and justifications for the extensions were 
submitted. Conversely, one commenter stated that the September 29, 
1998, deadline for transitioning facilities to complete BMP 
construction was unnecessary since any BMP construction required under 
the Baseline Industrial General Permit, the predecessor to the MSGP, 
supposedly would have already been completed. The commenter requested 
that this time frame be shortened to 90 days from the effective date of 
the permit.
    Commenters had argued that 30 days for NOI submittal may be 
inadequate due to the possible need to coordinate with other agencies 
on matters such as the Endangered Species Act certification. A 
commenter also noted that SWPPPs are sometimes prepared by consultants 
and that adequate time is needed to hire a consultant and modify the 
SWPPP. Other commenters also argued that more than 90 days would be 
required due to the complexity of the requirements of the MSGP. In 
addition, for BMPs involving construction, the proposed deadline of 
September 29, 1998, would be inadequate due to factors such as the time 
necessary for the planning and budgeting for the projects, as well as 
the construction itself.
    In response to these concerns, EPA has extended the deadlines are 
follows: NOIs would be due 90 days after the effective date of the MSGP 
modification; SWPPP revisions not involving construction would be due 
180 days after the effective date of the MSGP modification; and SWPPP 
revisions which involve construction would be required no later than 
October 1, 2000, which is the expiration date of the MSGP. EPA believes 
that the revised deadlines are appropriate and generally in line with 
the recommendations of the commenters.
    A commenter also noted that the proposed modification would require 
that permittees ``begin implementation'' of their revised SWPPPs by the 
required deadline. The commenter requested that EPA clarify that all 
requirements of the modified SWPPPs must be in place and in operation 
by the deadlines. In response, EPA believes that the words ``begin 
implementation'' clearly indicate that the actual implementation of any 
new BMPs in SWPPPs must commence (or be completed and in operation in 
the case of BMPs involving construction) by the appropriate deadlines. 
As such, no changes were made in response to this comment.
    Other commenters expressed concern that the proposal of July 11, 
1997, had not clarified that for facilities transferring to the MSGP 
prior to its modification, SWPPPs must be in compliance with the 
requirements of the MSGP at the time of NOI submittal. EPA agrees that 
such a clarification would have been helpful. However, this is a moot 
issue at this time since the MSGP has now been modified and hence no 
additional discussion of this matter is required.

Is a New NOI Required if Operations Change at a Facility?

    A commenter raised the question, in connection with eligibility 
requirements of Sector AD of Part XI, if both a Notice of Termination 
(NOT) and a new Notice of Intent (NOI) would need to be submitted if 
conditions change at a facility covered by this sector such that the 
facility falls into another sector.
    In response, in order to reduce the paperwork burden on permittees 
EPA does not require that updated NOIs be submitted for such changes. 
Updated information concerning the type of facility can be provided 
when the MSGP is reissued and the next NOI is submitted. The MSGP does, 
however, require that permittees update their SWPPPs in response to 
changes which occur at a facility. In addition, if changes occur at a 
facility such that the facility would fall into a different sector or 
an additional sector, the monitoring requirements of the other 
sector(s) would apply.

Must Permittees Submit Notices of Intent (NOIs) to Operators of 
Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s)?

    A commenter noted that the July 11, 1997, notice did not address 
the question of whether facilities must submit NOIs to the operator of 
a large or medium MS4 in addition to EPA. The commenter requested 
clarification of this issue.
    Part II.D of the MSGP requires that facilities requesting coverage 
under the MSGP also submit a copy of the NOI to the operator of a large 
or medium MS4 if they discharge into the MS4. Part II.D of the MSGP is 
not affected by this permit modification. Therefore, copies of NOIs 
must be provided to large or medium MS4 operators.

Re-Publication of MSGP and Notice of Termination (NOT) Form

    A commenter suggested that it may be necessary to re-published the 
entire MSGP so that facilities can more easily evaluate which sectors 
would apply to their facilities. Another commenter requested that the 
NOT form be published with the final permit modification in addition to 
the NOI form.
    For the convenience of permittees, today's final modification 
includes the NOT form along with the NOI form. However, EPA has not re-
published the entire MSGP due to its size and the fact that very little 
of the MSGP has actually been modified. The original MSGP can be found 
at 60 FR 50804. Copies can be obtained by calling the Region 2 and 
Region 6 storm water permitting hotline at 1-800-245-6510, or the EPA 
Office of Water Resources Center at 202-260-7786.

Extending the Public Comment Period

    Several commenters requested that the comment period be extended 
given the potential effects on regulated facilities of the proposed 
transfer of facilities to the MSGP from the BGP. Another commenter 
contended that EPA had previously provided oral assurances that 60 day 
public comment periods would be provided for this type of action.
    The July 11, 1997, notice consisted solely of the proposal to 
terminate the BGP and transfer facilities covered by that permit to the 
MSGP, along with a few minor modifications and clarifications of the 
MSGP. Given the limited complexity of the actual proposal, EPA believes 
that adequate time was provided for public comment. Further, it was 
necessary to limit the public comment period in consideration of the 
expiration of the BGP in September 1997. EPA regrets any inconvenience 
for permittees resulting from the fact that EPA was unable to provide a 
longer comment period such as 60 days.
    Another commenter requested a workshop on the MSGP in Alaska. As 
part of the finalization of today's permitting actions, EPA is working 
to communicate the requirements of the MSGP to all affected industrial 
sectors. EPA believes that these efforts will address the concerns of 
the commenter regarding the MSGP.
    Another commenter noted certain typographical errors in the 
proposal of July 11, 1997, and felt that the proposal had been rushed 
and not carefully thought out. In response, EPA has considered and 
responded to the comments received on the proposal and believes that 
the final permitting actions are appropriate. The typographical errors 
have also been corrected.

Requests for Public Hearings

    Three commenters requested that additional public hearings be held 
on the proposals. A commenter argued that it was unfair that hearings 
were scheduled only in EPA Regions 6 and 9.

[[Page 52449]]

    NPDES regulations at 40 CFR 124.12 require that a public hearing be 
held when a significant public interest exists in a proposed permitting 
action. Public hearings were held in Regions 6 and 9 in anticipation of 
such interest. However, since only three requests for additional 
hearings were received, EPA has decided not to hold additional hearings 
in other areas.

Reopening the Entire MSGP for Comment

    Several commenters argued that the entire MSGP should be reopened 
for comment at this time. The commenters argued that facilities which 
were operating under the baseline industrial permit during the issuance 
process for the MSGP had no indication that they might be subject to 
the MSGP in the future and therefore did not comment on the MSGP.
    EPA appreciates the concerns of the commenters in this regard, but 
for the reasons discussed below EPA nevertheless believes that the 
proposed permitting action is appropriate. First, a considerable amount 
of time was provided for comment on the original MSGP. The MSGP was 
proposed on November 19, 1993 (58 FR 61146), with a 90 day comment 
period. The MSGP was widely reviewed and commented upon by many 
commenters, including many representing the same types of industries 
which are now arguing for a reopening of the entire MSGP. Second, EPA 
does not believe that the commenters in their current review of the 
MSGP have identified any major new issues which were not raised during 
the original comment period. EPA believes that the vast majority of 
facilities covered by the baseline industrial permit will be able to 
transition to the MSGP without undue hardships. If the MSGP is 
inappropriate for a given facility, an individual permit may be 
requested.
    EPA also does not agree with commenters who stated they had no 
indication the MSGP, or a permit such as the MSGP, would ever apply to 
them. EPA's long term permitting strategy for industrial storm water 
dischargers was promulgated on April 2, 1992 (57 FR 11394) well before 
the proposal of the MSGP. This long term strategy clearly indicated 
that EPA intended to issue industry-specific storm water permits, such 
as the MSGP, in the future. As such, EPA does not agree that facilities 
covered by the baseline industrial permit at the time of the proposed 
MSGP should not have taken an interest in the proposal.
    EPA also points out that reopening the entire MSGP at this time 
could be a lengthy process which would not advance the objective of the 
Clean Water Act of expeditiously controlling pollutants in storm water 
discharges. In view of these factors, EPA has terminated the baseline 
industrial permit (with the limited exceptions discussed in the fact 
sheet) and as proposed is requiring facilities previously covered by 
the baseline industrial permit to transition to the MSGP.

Retaining the 1992 Baseline Industrial General Permit

    Many commenters recommended that EPA reissue the 1992 baseline 
industrial permit and provided various reasons for this recommendation. 
For example, commenters believed that the baseline industrial permit 
has proven to be adequate for protection of the environment and that 
the MSGP is not needed. Other commenters objected to the complexities 
of the MSGP and the transition from the baseline industrial permit. 
Others were concerned about a perceived inflexibility of the MSGP 
(which is also discussed elsewhere in this Summary of Responses to 
Comments). Another commenter argued that the baseline industrial permit 
already requires compliance with the Best Available Control Technology 
Economically Achievable/Best Conventional Pollutant Control Technology 
(BAT/BCT) requirements of the Clean Water Act and nothing more should 
be required. Still others asked whether EPA has any actual data which 
shows that the MSGP provides improved water quality benefits compared 
to the baseline industrial permit. Many commenters recommended that the 
1992 baseline industrial permit should at least be reissued until the 
year 2000 when the MSGP expires.
    EPA appreciates the concerns which have been raised but 
nevertheless believes that the July 11, 1997, proposal is a workable 
and reasonable permitting action given the present circumstances. For 
example, over 10,000 facilities are currently covered by the MSGP and 
EPA has no evidence that the permit is excessively complex or 
inflexible. The MSGP requires at least a consideration by permittees of 
various sector-specific Best Management Practices (BMPs) which have 
been identified for various types of industries. Such BMPs may or may 
not have been considered and incorporated into SWPPPs by permittees 
operating under the baseline industrial permit. Common sense indicates 
the MSGP should provide environmental benefits equal to or better than 
the baseline industrial permit. EPA also points out SWPPPs are 
technology-based requirements which are required by the BAT/BCT 
requirements of the Clean Water Act regardless of water quality 
considerations. However, EPA also does not believe that the 
requirements of the MSGP are such that only negligible additional 
reductions in pollutant discharges would result. In addition, while the 
baseline industrial permit represented a good first step in 
establishing BAT/BCT effluent limitations for industrial storm water 
discharges in 1992, EPA believes that the MSGP is an appropriate next 
step to further define BAT/BCT for specific industries in 1995. As 
noted elsewhere, EPA's intent to require industry-specific permits was 
announced on April 2, 1992 (57 FR 11394), in the long term permitting 
strategy for industries.
    EPA also points out that the first storm water monitoring results 
from facilities currently operating under MSGP were not due until March 
31, 1998. As such, EPA has little actual monitoring data from these 
facilities to compare with data from baseline industrial permit 
facilities. Nevertheless, as noted above, EPA believes that the 
improved SWPPPs developed pursuant to the MSGP should lead to water 
quality benefits.
    Several other commenters supported the proposal to terminate the 
baseline industrial permit and transition facilities covered by it to 
the MSGP. An industrial representative agreed with EPA that the MSGP 
should be more effective in regulating industrial storm water 
discharges than the baseline industrial permit which only included 
generic BMP requirements. Another commenter noted that historic 
properties would receive increased protection via the NOI requirements 
of the MSGP, and supported the proposal on that basis. Today's final 
permitting actions differ only slightly from the proposals of July 11, 
1997, and EPA believes that the final actions are consistent with the 
comments received from these commenters.

Expiration Date of the Baseline Industrial General Permit

    Comments were received concerned the conflicting expiration dates 
listed in the baseline industrial permit. Part VII.B of the baseline 
industrial permit lists October 1, 1997, as the expiration date while 
the signature pages list September 9, 1997 (57 FR 41300). In accordance 
with NPDES regulations found at 40 CFR 122.46, an NPDES permit can be 
issued for no more that five years. (Note that permittees may obtain 
administrative extension of permit coverage beyond the expiration date

[[Page 52450]]

provided they have reapplied within the appropriate time frame.) 
Therefore, the correct expiration date is September 9, 1997, rather 
than October 1, 1997. In view of this inconsistency, EPA would use 
enforcement discretion and does not intend to initiate enforcement 
action for non-compliance with the CWA in instances where the 
discharger submits an NOI postmarked no later than 48 hours before 
October 1, 1997, to either obtain extended coverage under the baseline 
industrial permit or transition to the MSGP. The Agency conducted a 
mass-mailing in August 1997 to provide information concerning the 
expiration of the baseline industrial permit as well as the options 
available to permittees.
    Another commenter requested that once the modifications are 
finalized, the Agency notify all permittees and inform them of 
precisely what the permit requirements are as well as the deadlines for 
all submittals and permit conditions. In response, the Agency is making 
the permit modifications widely known through publication in today's 
Federal Register. Due to the tremendous numbers of facilities affected 
by the modifications to the MSGP (i.e., all transitioning industrial 
baseline permittees), resources do not allow the Agency to provide 
individual attention to each permittee. The MSGP was drafted to be as 
self-implementing as possible in each industrial sector as well as the 
other parts which have general applicability to many or all permittees. 
To assist permittees with answering questions, EPA has several sources 
available by phone and over the Internet (please see Part III.H of the 
Fact Sheet for a list of EPA storm water contacts). Other sources 
include State and local government, trade associations and consultants.

Requesting an Individual Permit

    EPA has proposed that facilities would be required to submit an 
individual permit application if they are ineligible for coverage under 
the MSGP due to Endangered Species Act or National Historic 
Preservation Act restrictions, or other conditions. Several commenters 
noted that the BGP would be terminated 30 days from the effective date 
of the MSGP modification. The commenters expressed concern that the 
individual permit would probably take longer than 30 days to issue and 
could leave the discharger without a permit.
    Part II.A.9 of the proposed modified MSGP provided that the 
baseline permit would remain in effect until the individual permit was 
issued for the scenario described by the commenters. As such, EPA 
believes that the proposal addressed the commenters' concern and no 
changes were made in the final modified MSGP in response to this 
comment. It should also be noted that the individual permit application 
is due 90 days after the effective date of the final modified MSGP, 
rather than 30 days as had been proposed.

Issues Related to Requirements for Co-Located Facilities

    Several commenters raised questions and concerns regarding the 
provisions in the MSGP regarding co-located facilities. The MSGP 
requires that when one facility includes operations which fall into 
more than one sector, the SWPPP and monitoring requirements of both 
sectors apply to the facility. It should also be noted, however, that 
if monitoring for the same parameter is required by two sectors, only 
one sample analysis is required for that parameter.
    Concerns were expressed that some facilities may fall into many 
sectors and that it may be difficult to determine which sectors would 
apply. In response to this concern, EPA believes that the sectors are 
reasonably clear with regards to their applicability and permittees can 
successfully use their best judgment concerning which sectors apply. We 
also point out that over 10,000 facilities are currently covered by the 
MSGP and we have no evidence that this has been a significant problem.
    Several questions were also raised specifically for airport 
operations and how the MSGP is intended to be implemented for airports. 
For example, clarification was requested regarding permitting 
requirements for tenant operations such as car rental agencies which 
may conduct on-site vehicle maintenance or fueling, but do not have a 
primary SIC code which is listed in the MSGP.
    The implementation of the requirements of the MSGP for airports and 
their tenants was discussed in the final fact sheet and response to 
comments when the MSGP was originally issued in 1995. Further 
clarification is also provided below.
    EPA would first like to clarify that storm water discharges from 
all facilities at an airport which engage in activities such as vehicle 
maintenance, painting, washing, fueling or de-icing need to be 
addressed. Tenants having an SIC code of 45xx (or otherwise listed at 
40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)) must obtain NPDES permit coverage which could be 
accomplished by submittal of an NOI requesting MSGP coverage or by 
obtaining coverage under an individual permit. Tenants such as car 
rental agencies (SIC code 7514) with an SIC code (or narrative 
description) other than those listed at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14) may obtain 
NPDES permit coverage. However, these tenants may also be addressed 
through agreements between the airport authority and the tenant with 
regards to appropriate storm water pollution control.
    As discussed in the fact sheet and response to comments 
accompanying the 1995 MSGP, EPA encourages airport authorities and work 
cooperatively with tenants in implementing the requirements of the 
MSGP. For example, one SWPPP could be developed for the entire airport 
which addresses the pollution control activities to be implemented by 
the airport authority and all its tenants. Each individual tenant would 
only be responsible for implementing the portion of the SWPPP which 
applied to his or her specific facility.
    In addition, the MSGP requires monitoring for an airport as a 
whole, and this could be accomplished most easily by permittees working 
together. Facilities which are not co-permittees under the MSGP, or 
which receive individual permits would have to comply with the 
monitoring and SWPPP requirements of the MSGP (or their individual 
storm water NPDES permit) on their own.
    Another commenter noted that a facility such as a car hauler may be 
situated next to a car manufacturer. Concern was expressed that the car 
hauler might be required to comply with the SWPPP and monitoring 
requirements of the car manufacturer. In response, EPA points out that 
the requirements for the car manufacturer would not apply to the car 
hauler in such a situation since the car hauler would be a different 
operator. In addition, in response to another comment, in situations 
where one industrial plant includes separate operations which fall into 
more than one sector, the SWPPP and monitoring requirements for the 
individual co-located facilities do not necessarily have to be 
implemented throughout the entire facility. For example, in the case of 
a landfill at a wood treatment facility, the SWPPP requirements for the 
landfill would most likely be appropriate only for the landfill portion 
of the facility.

Exemption for Existing Facilities

    A commenter recommended that only new facilities should be subject 
to storm water permitting requirements since they can incorporate 
appropriate controls into the design of the new facility. The commenter 
recommended that existing facilities should be exempt.
    In response, EPA points out that Section 402(p) of the Clean Water 
Act,

[[Page 52451]]

as amended by the Water Quality Act of 1987, requires NPDES permits for 
new and existing storm water discharges associated with industrial 
activity. As such, EPA cannot waive storm water permit requirements for 
existing industrial facilities as recommended by the commenter.

Flexibility of the MSGP

    Several commenters raised a number of concerns and questions 
related to the flexibility provided by the MSGP for different types of 
facilities. A commenter recommended that the MSGP only require cost-
effective requirements and that the effects on small businesses be 
considered. In response, EPA believes that the requirements of the MSGP 
are reasonable and cost-effective. The MSGP was issued in 1995 after a 
thorough consideration of the information in the group applications 
concerning available storm water pollution controls at different types 
of industries, the costs of the controls, and the comments which were 
received on the proposed MSGP. EPA concluded that the effects on small 
businesses would not be significant, both for the original MSGP 
issuance and for today's modification (see 60 FR 51067 and Section VIII 
of the fact sheet accompanying today's modification). The commenter 
also recommended that the MSGP only require structural controls as a 
last resort and that non-structural controls should be the preferred 
means of pollutant control. With regard to this issue, EPA believes 
that the MSGP does provide flexibility to permittees in selecting an 
appropriate mix of structural and non-structural controls for their 
SWPPPs. Although numerous industry-specific BMPs are included in the 
MSGP, the language of the permit usually only requires that they be 
considered and included when appropriate as opposed to being absolute 
requirements. Furthermore, if non-structural controls by themselves 
adequately control pollutants in the discharges, then a SWPPP could 
consist solely of such controls.
    Commenters also raised several specific concerns regarding the 
MSGP. One commenter expressed concern that the spill prevention and 
response requirements of SWPPPs could duplicate other existing 
requirements for spill prevention and response. In response, EPA points 
out that SWPPPs may include by reference spill prevention and response 
programs which have already been developed by a facility in accordance 
with another program. Another commenter recommended that only 
reportable spills and leaks be listed when developing a description of 
potential pollutant sources for a SWPPP. In response to this concern, 
EPA notes that spills and leaks involving less than reportable 
quantities may nevertheless degrade storm water quality. The MSGP 
requires a listing of ``significant'' spills and leaks which EPA 
believes is reasonable for ensuring appropriate consideration of this 
matter when developing SWPPPs.
    Commenters also recommended that additional non-storm water 
discharges should be authorized for discharge by the MSGP. 
Specifically, it was recommended that the permit authorize minor 
vehicle wash water, de minimis amounts of materials such as dirt, and 
discharges associated with emergency situations. In response, EPA 
believes that the list of authorized non-storm water discharges should 
be limited to minor discharges which are expected to pose little risk 
to the environment. Discharges such as vehicle wash water or discharges 
associated with emergency situations may not fall into this category. 
EPA also notes that materials such as ``dirt'' are not prohibited from 
storm water discharges, provided that the amount of the material in the 
discharges has been minimized through proper implementation of 
pollution prevention practices, and that water quality standards are 
not exceeded.
    A commenter also recommended that the permit allow modification of 
facilities without formal permit modification. In response to this 
issue, Part IV.C of the MSGP requires that SWPPPs be modified whenever 
there is a change at a facility which has a significant effect on the 
potential for discharges of pollutants to waters of the United States. 
This provision is intended to provide flexibility for operators to 
accommodate changes at a facility without formal permit modification.
    Another commenter noted that the MSGP expires in the year 2000 and 
recommended that EPA consider a longer permit term such as 7 years 
which EPA has allowed in certain special programs such as Project XL. 
In response, the flexibilities provided under Project XL (excellence in 
leadership, which is part of the government's reinvention effort) are 
intended to be used in situations where variation from strict 
regulatory requirements (such as maximum permit terms) would be 
advantageous to permittees and the environment. It is now applied only 
to pilot projects after intensive review of the specific circumstances 
faced by individual facilities. Its broad application to all facilities 
regulated by the MSGP would, at best, be premature. Furthermore, the 
maximum five-year term for NPDES permits is established within the CWA 
itself in section 402(b)(1)(B) and cannot be modified via Project XL. 
Also, information was not provided in this case that a longer permit 
term is needed by permittees or that the environment would benefit. 
Therefore, the expiration date of the MSGP was not changed.

Comments Concerning Monitoring Requirements of the MSGP

    Numerous comments and questions were received regarding the 
monitoring requirements of the MSGP. The Agency's responses to these 
comments are grouped below by subject matter.
Use of Monitoring Data Collected Under the Baseline Industrial General 
Permit To Satisfy MSGP Fourth Year Monitoring Requirements
    For transitioning Baseline Industrial General Permittees, EPA 
proposed (62 FR 37464) that facilities may use their most recent 
monitoring results for averaging purposes to see if monitoring would be 
required on an outfall-by-outfall, pollutant-by-pollutant basis during 
the fourth year of the MSGP. EPA clarified in Section III.D.4 of the 
preamble to the proposed modification (62 FR 37459) that the usable 
monitoring data was limited to the two most recent sampling events 
conducted for the Baseline Industrial General Permit. One commenter 
stated that using only two data points was inconsistent with the intent 
of the MSGP as originally published in 1995, which required a minimum 
of four data points to determine the effectiveness of a facility's 
SWPPP. In response, EPA believes that for transitioning Baseline 
Industrial General Permittees that have been monitoring their 
industrial storm water discharges, the two most recent semi-annual or 
annual data points should provide sufficient information to reflect the 
effectiveness of a facility's storm water pollution prevention plan at 
reducing the release of pollutants. The final permit modification has 
been revised to clarify that monitoring results from the last two semi-
annual or annual sampling events may be used by transitioning Baseline 
Industrial General Permittees to satisfy this requirement.
Issues Relating to the Benchmark Criteria for Analytical Monitoring 
Waivers
    Several comments were received concerning the benchmark 
concentrations in Table 3 of the proposed permit modification (62 FR 
37459; reprinted from Table 5 of the original MSGP [60 FR 50826]). The

[[Page 52452]]

MSGP currently provides a waiver on a parameter-by-parameter, outfall-
by-outfall basis from the analytical monitoring requirements in the 
fourth year of the term of the permit if the average annual 
concentration of a specific pollutant at a specific outfall during the 
second year sampling period is less than the benchmark concentration. 
If it is, then the permittee is not required to monitor for that 
pollutant at that outfall during the fourth year monitoring period. The 
final modified MSGP also provides this waiver on an outfall-by-outfall, 
pollutant-by-pollutant basis for facilities transferring to the MSGP if 
the average of the two most recent sampling results for a specific 
pollutant at a specific outfall from the baseline industrial permit is 
less than the MSGP's benchmarks values, provided sampling was required 
by the BGP for the appropriate parameters.
    Commenters expressed concern that the benchmark concentrations were 
in effect numeric effluent limitations for storm water discharges. 
However, as pointed out by EPA when the MSGP was originally issued in 
1995, the benchmarks are not storm water effluent limitations. The 
benchmarks provide a means for identifying low risk discharges for 
which additional monitoring should not be required in the fourth year 
of the term of the permit. The benchmarks also provide an incentive for 
facilities to implement an effective SWPPP by eliminating the fourth 
year monitoring requirement if they comply with the benchmarks. 
However, a facility would not necessarily be in noncompliance with the 
permit if the facility does not comply with the benchmarks. Compliance 
with the permit would be based largely on whether a facility develops 
and implements a SWPPP in accordance with the permit requirements.
    Commenters also objected that some of the benchmark concentrations 
were too stringent. In response, EPA points out that the benchmarks in 
the 1995 MSGP were revised from the proposed concentrations in response 
to similar comments on the proposed MSGP. EPA believes that the 
benchmarks are suitable for the primary purpose noted above (i.e., 
identifying low risk discharges).
    Another commenter objected that the benchmarks do not take into 
consideration the dilution in the receiving water. This issue was also 
raised during the issuance of the original MSGP. In addition to being 
indicators of low risk discharges, the benchmarks are also intended to 
be indicators of whether an effective SWPPP is being implemented at a 
facility. The end-of-pipe concentrations are more appropriate when 
judging the effectiveness of a SWPPP than a concentration which is 
adjusted based on the available dilution in the receiving water. As 
such, the MSGP's benchmark concentrations do not consider dilution as 
suggested by the commenter.
    Another commenter expressed concern that some of the benchmarks 
were based on the highest method detection limit multiplied by a factor 
of 3.18. The commenter noted that based on recent discussions with EPA, 
another multiple may be recommended in future guidance. In response, 
EPA points out that the multiple used for the benchmarks was based on 
the guidance available when the MSGP was issued in 1995. EPA has not 
yet finalized the additional guidance referred to by the commenter. The 
benchmarks are based on the latest available guidance and EPA therefore 
believes they are appropriate.
    Another commenter argued that the benchmark concentrations should 
take into consideration the effect of naturally occurring pollutants at 
different locations. In response, the final storm water regulations of 
November 16, 1990 (55 FR 48010) clarify that dischargers are 
responsible for the quality of their discharges regardless of the 
source of the pollutants. As such, the benchmark concentrations do not 
consider the effects of naturally occurring pollutants on storm water 
discharges.
Visual Examinations
    Several commenters objected to the requirement in the MSGP for 
visual examinations. A commenter argued that such sampling would not be 
useful, nor would permittees make meaningful modifications to their 
SWPPPs based on the results. The commenter noted that storm water can 
pick up sediment and debris naturally.
    Most sectors of the MSGP require quarterly visual examinations 
(except Sector S which covers air transportation). EPA disagrees with 
the commenter concerning the usefulness of the visual examinations. 
Materials such as sediment and debris are pollutants which can degrade 
downstream receiving waters. The presence of such materials in storm 
water, as well as other indicators of pollution such as an oil sheen, 
foam or scum, are a measure of the degree to which a SWPPP is being 
successfully implemented and the potential effects of these discharges 
on receiving waters. Further, the likely origin of such materials at a 
facility should be readily apparent in many cases so that a permittee 
may appropriately modify the SWPPP or its implementation.
    A commenter suggested that visual examinations only be required at 
the time a facility inspection takes place, regardless of whether rain 
and discharges are occurring at that time. Visual examinations would 
only be conducted if a sample were available. In response, EPA believes 
that this recommendation would be inadequate to fulfill the intent of 
the visual examinations since in most instances rainfall would not 
coincide with the regular facility inspections. As such, the permit was 
not modified in accordance with this recommendation.
    A commenter also noted that discharges from oil and gas facilities 
may be controlled discharges from bermed areas. The commenter argued 
that a visual examination of the surface of the water can be made prior 
to the controlled releases and that a visual examination of samples 
should not be required in addition to such observations. In response, 
EPA believes that the visual examinations could provide useful 
information beyond that provided by observations of the surface of the 
bermed water. The discharger may observe additional indicators of 
pollution (such as turbidity, odor or color) which may be less apparent 
from observations of the surface of the water. Moreover, the visual 
examinations are quick and inexpensive and should not place a 
significant burden on permittees. As such, EPA has not modified the 
MSGP in response to this comment.
Compliance Monitoring by the Timber Industry
    A commenter expressed concern regarding the effluent limitations 
guidelines (ELGs) which were proposed to be added for discharges 
associated with the spray down of lumber and wood products in storage 
yards (wet decking) used by the timber industry. The proposal would add 
to the MSGP the ELGs from 40 CFR Part 429, Subpart I for ``debris'' and 
pH. These ELGs were inadvertently omitted from the MSGP when it was 
originally issued in 1995.
    The commenter objected that the proposed ELG for ``debris'' in the 
discharges would be too lax. The term ``debris'' refers to woody 
material such as bark, twigs, branches, heartwood or sapwood that does 
not pass through a 2.54 cm (1.0 inch) diameter round opening and is 
present in the discharge. The commenter recommended that the limit be 
set at \1/2\ inch instead. The commenter also recommended more

[[Page 52453]]

frequent monitoring than once/year as proposed. In addition, the 
commenter noted that discharges would be allowed provided no chemicals 
were used in the spray and no chemicals were applied to the wood during 
storage. The commenter recommended that the permit also prohibit 
discharges if chemicals had been used prior' to storage.
    In response to these concerns, EPA proposed the modification to 
include promulgated ELGs for wet deck discharges which were 
inadvertently omitted from the MSGP. The definition of the term 
``debris'' was established when the ELGs for the timber industry were 
promulgated in 1981. Comments on the ELG for ``debris'' should have 
been submitted at the time of the development of the guidelines. EPA 
also believes that the monitoring frequency for debris and pH is 
appropriate considering the risks posed by the discharges, and is 
generally consistent with other compliance monitoring frequencies in 
the MSGP.
Usefulness of Monitoring Results
    Several commenters objected that the monitoring requirements of the 
MSGP may not provide useful information and could simply divert 
resources away from effective implementation of the SWPPPs. These 
commenters argued that site inspections would be adequate for 
effectively controlling pollutants. The commenters also argued that EPA 
should be focusing more on receiving water monitoring to evaluate the 
overall health of the receiving waters in a given watershed. According 
to the commenters, this type of monitoring would be more consistent 
with recommendations which are being developed by EPA's Urban Wet 
Weather Flows Advisory Committee.
    In response, EPA believes that the monitoring requirements of the 
MSGP are appropriate despite the points made by the commenters. For 
most facilities, as recommended by the commenters, the MSGP only 
requires site inspections as opposed to analytical monitoring. Of the 
over 10,000 facilities currently covered by the MSGP, only about 2,600 
(or approximately 26%) indicated on their NOIs that they would fall 
into a category for which monitoring is required. The monitoring 
requirements are also targeted toward the highest risk facilities as 
determined by the storm water monitoring data submitted with the group 
applications. EPA does not necessarily agree that site inspections (or 
even visual examinations) are adequate as a complete substitute for 
analytical monitoring. Visual site inspections may simply overlook 
significant sources of pollutants which contribute to storm water 
pollution, and visual examinations of discharges will not detect 
certain pollutants such as dissolved metals. Analytical monitoring is 
still useful in identifying and evaluating important specific sources 
of pollutants.
    EPA agrees with many of the points made the commenters regarding 
the benefits of watershed and receiving water monitoring. In 1996, EPA 
and the Center for Watershed Protection published a report entitled 
Environmental Indicators to Assess Stormwater Control Programs and 
Practices'' which lays out numerous alternatives to chemical monitoring 
to assess the environmental effects of storm water discharges and 
measure the progress of storm water management programs. However, at 
the present time, we also believe that the monitoring requirements of 
the MSGP are appropriate to gather additional information on the 
quality of storm water discharges from specific sources and assess the 
effectiveness of the SWPPPs which are currently being implemented. A 
shift toward more resource monitoring and less chemical monitoring may 
be appropriate over time as additional data are gathered. Facilities 
wishing to pursue watershed monitoring, or receiving water monitoring 
as an alternative to the monitoring requirements of the MSGP at this 
time should pursue individual permits or an alternate general permit.
Using Representative Outfalls
    The MSGP provides that when a facility has two or more outfalls 
which are ``substantially identical,'' only one of the outfalls needs 
to be monitored. However, a commenter objected that the criteria for 
determining whether two outfalls are ``substantially identical'' are 
too stringent and inflexible.
    EPA disagrees that the MSGP is too inflexible in this regard. The 
permit simply requires an explanation in the SWPPP of why the 
discharges from the outfalls would be similar based on a review of the 
industrial activities and pollutant controls in the drainage areas of 
the outfalls. These requirements do not impose an excessive burden on 
permittees.
Arid Climate Issues
    A commenter noted that in arid areas of the country, a quarter may 
pass with no measurable storm water discharges. The commenter asked how 
an annual average would be determined for purposes of comparison with 
permit benchmark values; i.e., should a zero be included in determining 
the annual average or should the average be based solely on actual data 
measurements collected during the year.
    The MSGP requires that the average concentration be determined on 
the basis of all monitoring data collected during the monitoring year. 
Therefore, a zero would not be included in determining the annual 
average if a discharge did not occur within a particular quarter; only 
actual monitoring results would be used.
New Mexico Issues
    A commenter asked whether the low concentration waiver for Sector O 
(steam electric power plants) would apply to the additional monitoring 
requirements set forth in Part XII of the MSGP (State certification 
requirements) for New Mexico. In response, EPA is clarifying that the 
low concentration waiver applies not only to pollutants listed in Part 
XI, such as the one for total recoverable iron found in Table O-1, but 
also to the additional pollutants listed in Part XII for dischargers 
located in New Mexico.
    The commenter also asked about the basis for the list of additional 
pollutants to be monitored for Sector O facilities in New Mexico. In 
response, EPA points out that monitoring for these pollutants was 
determined by the State to be necessary to ensure compliance with State 
water quality standards based on a review of the monitoring data 
submitted by facilities in the sector.
    The commenter also objected to the benchmark concentration of 100 
mg/l for total suspended solids arguing that it is not appropriate for 
the arid southwest which has less vegetation than other areas. The 
commenter noted that the value of 100 mg/l was derived from the 
Nationwide Urban Runoff Program (NURP) study which looked at urban 
runoff at 28 locations around the country, but generally excluding the 
arid southwest. However, EPA believes that it would be difficult to try 
to develop different benchmarks for different areas of the country as 
the commenter suggested. In addition, many facilities in the arid 
southwest are already covered by the MSGP and we have no evidence that 
the benchmark for total suspended solids is unworkable. Therefore, no 
changes were made in response to this comment.
Miscellaneous Monitoring Issues
    A number of miscellaneous comments and questions were received 
concerning the monitoring requirements of the MSGP. One commenter 
objected to the requirement to test the runoff from storms of at least 
0.1 inches of rain that occur at least 72 hours from the

[[Page 52454]]

previous such event. The commenter noted that such restrictions can be 
problematic in arid areas as well as areas where rainfall is common. In 
response, EPA believes that the MSGP's provisions for monitoring 
waivers adequately address these concerns. For arid areas, the MSGP 
includes a waiver from monitoring requirements when dry conditions 
persist for extended periods of time. A waiver is also available for 
wetter areas of the country where a time period less than 72 hours 
between storms is representative of local conditions.
    Another commenter recommended that monitoring results not be used 
for enforcement purposes. In response, the purpose of the monitoring is 
primarily to assist the facility in evaluating whether the SWPPP is 
being successfully implemented and identifying any shortcomings. In 
addition, the overall risks posed by a given facility can be evaluated. 
However, aside from the small number of facilities subject to effluent 
limitations guidelines, the MSGP includes few numeric effluent 
limitations for which permittees are subject to enforcement action 
where there are excursions above these limits. For most facilities, 
compliance with the MSGP would be based largely on whether or not the 
facility had developed and was implementing an adequate SWPPP.
    One commenter also expressed concern regarding the effects of the 
monitoring requirements on small businesses. The effects on small 
businesses of the original MSGP and today's modification were both 
considered by EPA (see 60 FR 51067 and Section VIII of the fact sheet 
accompanying today's permit modification). EPA concluded that the 
permit requirements would not have a significant impact on a 
substantial number of small entities.
    Another commenter objected to the test method for total phenols, 
EPA method 420.1. The commenter noted that total phenols is included in 
Table 5 of the fact sheet which sets forth the benchmark concentrations 
for the fourth year monitoring waiver. The commenter argued that the 
test method fails to detect some priority pollutant phenols and should 
not be used in the permit. In response, NPDES regulations at 40 CFR 136 
require that test methods approved under 40 CFR 136 be used for the 
monitoring which is required by NPDES permits, unless alternate methods 
have been approved. The only currently approved method for total 
phenols is EPA method 420.1 and therefore the permit retains the 
requirement for the use of this method.
    Another commenter noted that ``subsectors'' of a larger facility 
may occupy only a small fraction of an overall facility and may 
contribute little in the way of storm water pollutants. The commenter 
argued that monitoring should not be required for such subsectors 
unless there is concern that there may be pollutants from the 
activities of the subsector. In response, a subsector of a larger 
facility may be required to monitor because the subsector falls into a 
sector of the MSGP which requires monitoring. However, this is simply a 
consequence of the fact that the industrial activity in question was 
identified as a high risk activity by the group application monitoring 
data. As such, EPA believes that the monitoring requirement is 
appropriate. However, the MSGP does not require that the entire 
facility monitor storm water because of the presence of a small 
subsector for which monitoring is required. In addition, the MSGP 
provides that monitoring would not be required if permittees can 
certify on a pollutant-by-pollutant, outfall-by-outfall basis that 
their industrial activities are not exposed to storm water.
    One commenter requested that the MSGP not require that monitoring 
data be submitted to the corresponding State environmental management 
agency as well as to EPA. Some States had required submittal of 
monitoring data as a requirement of their Clean Water Act Section 401 
certification for the MSGP as originally published in 1995. In 
response, EPA points out that States may require the addition of any 
special conditions in the MSGP which they believe are necessary to 
ensure compliance with applicable State requirements. EPA believes this 
is not an unreasonable condition and no changes were made to the MSGP 
in response to the comment.
    Another commenter recommended that the construction industry not be 
subject to analytical monitoring requirements. In response, EPA notes 
that the MSGP only regulates onsite construction discharges at 
permitted industrial facilities consisting of less than five acres of 
disturbance. Analytical monitoring is not required at such construction 
projects as recommended by the commenter. Construction projects 
disturbing five or more acres are regulated by separate individual or 
general permits in non-NPDES delegated states which, as recommended by 
the commenter, usually do not require analytical monitoring of storm 
water discharges.
    Another commenter expressed concern regarding Part J.4.a of Sector 
J of the MSGP which prohibits dilution of mine dewatering discharges 
with ``other storm water runoff or flows'' to meet the effluent 
limitation guideline. The commenter was concerned that the wording 
implied that dilution would be acceptable if water sources other than 
those specifically mentioned were used as the dilution water. In 
response, EPA believes that the condition is sufficiently clear that 
mine dewatering discharges are not to be diluted with any other water 
sources to comply with the effluent limitation. As such, no changes 
were made to the permit in response to the comment.
    A commenter disagreed with what the commenter perceived to be a 
proposal to authorize storm water discharges from open dumps which 
receive wastes from ``vehicle maintenance, truck washing and/or 
recycling'' facilities. In addition, if such facilities were authorized 
to discharge, the commenter recommended monitoring for oil and grease 
at a minimum. In response, EPA notes that the July 11, 1997, proposed 
permit modification included the proposal to authorize industrial storm 
water from open dumps which was one of the categories of facilities 
covered by the Baseline Industrial General Permit but originally 
excluded from the MSGP. Open dumps were not included in Sector L of the 
original MSGP which covered only landfills and land application sites. 
The reference to ``vehicle maintenance, truck washing, and/or 
recycling'' in Sector L pertains to the overall requirements of the 
MSGP for co-located facilities. For example, if a particular landfill 
includes a vehicle maintenance facility at the same location, the 
requirements of Sector P, including its monitoring requirements, would 
apply to that portion of the overall facility. Although Sector P does 
not require monitoring for oil and grease, EPA believes that the 
requirements are appropriate based on the data received in the group 
applications.
    Another commenter requested a clarification of the monitoring 
schedule which would apply to new facilities seeking coverage under the 
MSGP, other than facilities transferring from the BGP. In response, new 
facilities other than baseline industrial permit facilities which seek 
coverage under the MSGP at this time would only be subject to the 
monitoring requirements during the fourth year of the MSGP (i.e., 
October 1, 1998--September 30, 1999). It should also be noted, however, 
that the MSGP also includes annual or quarterly compliance monitoring 
for a small

[[Page 52455]]

number of facilities with discharges subject to numeric effluent 
limitations. The compliance monitoring requirements would apply 
immediately upon submittal of the NOI.
    Concern was also expressed regarding the availability of 
laboratories to perform the analytical tests required by the MSGP. In 
response, EPA points out that except for facilities subject to effluent 
limitations guidelines, the MSGP does not require additional analytical 
testing until the last quarter of the 1998 calendar year. This should 
provide adequate lead time for permittees to ensure the availability of 
a testing laboratory for their samples. Moreover, many transitioning 
baseline industrial permit facilities will no longer be subject to 
analytical monitoring once they transfer to the MSGP.

No Exposure Incentive

    Several commenters expressed concern regarding EPA's proposal for a 
``no exposure incentive'' and the potential effects of this proposal on 
the MSGP. This proposal is being developed in connection with the 
development of regulations under CWA section 402(p)(6) (aka ``Phase 
II'').
    The Phase II storm water regulations were proposed by EPA on 
January 9, 1998 (63 FR 1536) with a 90 day comment period. The 
regulations are scheduled to be finalized by March 1, 1999. In the 
meantime, the requirements of existing storm water regulations will 
continue to apply. Comments on the ``no exposure incentive'' proposal 
should have been submitted during the comment period for the Phase II 
regulations.

Consistency With EPA's Long Term NPDES Permitting Strategy

    A commenter noted that EPA's long term NPDES permitting strategy 
for industries calls for industry-specific permitting as the third 
tier, with watershed permitting as the second tier. The commenter 
argued that in accordance with this strategy, EPA should be engaging in 
watershed permitting prior to industry-specific permitting.
    In response, EPA would encourage that special watershed permits be 
issued where they are needed. However, EPA also points out that storm 
water permitting for industrial sources does not necessarily have to 
follow the tiered schedule exactly as set forth in the long term 
permitting strategy. Further, the MSGP was the end result of the group 
permit application process for industrial storm water dischargers 
provided by the regulations at 40 CFR 122.26(c)(2). EPA had a 
responsibility to develop timely industry-specific storm water permits 
in response to the group applications which were submitted.

Orphan Facility Economic Advantage

    Several commenters objected to the proposed inclusion of the 
``orphan'' facilities in the MSGP, arguing that such facilities would 
receive an economic advantage over facilities which participated in the 
group application process. In response, EPA notes that essentially the 
same issue arose during the issuance of the MSGP in 1995. Commenters 
expressed concern that the MSGP would be open to all facilities, not 
just those that had participated in group applications. As in 1995, 
however, EPA has not identified any practical means of providing some 
sort of credit for group members. EPA notes that the ``orphan'' 
facilities have required permit coverage under the baseline industrial 
permit since 1992 and have been subject to the costs associated with 
that permit for a considerably longer period of time than facilities 
which participated in the group application process and which have 
required permit coverage since 1995.
    A commenter also recommended that storm water data should be 
collected for the orphan facilities to more appropriately determine 
permit conditions for them. EPA disagrees that more storm water data 
are necessarily required to determine appropriate permit requirements 
for the facilities. These facilities closely resemble other facilities 
in their proposed sectors and should be appropriately regulated by the 
requirements of those sectors.

Permit as a Shield

    A commenter requested that EPA clarify that coverage under and 
compliance with the MSGP would shield the permittee for discharges 
which occur and are not prohibited by the permit. In response, EPA 
notes that the MSGP authorizes storm water discharges and certain 
listed non-storm water discharges, subject to the terms and conditions 
of the permit. These are the only discharges which are authorized by 
the permit. CWA section 402(k) provides that compliance with an NPDES 
permit is also considered to be compliance, for purposes of section 309 
and 505 enforcement, with sections 301, 302, 306, 307 and 403 of the 
Clean Water Act (except for any standard imposed under section 307 for 
a toxic pollutant injurious to human health). Therefore, permittees 
discharging in compliance with the MSGP are not shielded from non-
compliance with the Clean Water Act for discharges that are not 
identified, and thus authorized and limited by the permit.

Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA) Requirements

    A commenter noted that EPCRA reporting requirements were modified 
on May 1, 1997, (62 FR 23834). Addendum F of the MSGP provides a list 
of water priority chemicals which trigger certain additional SWPPP 
requirements for facilities covered by the permit. The list of 
chemicals in Addendum F is based on EPCRA reporting requirements in 
effect in September, 1995, at the time of the issuance of the MSGP.
    The commenter also noted that the proposed modification of the MSGP 
is limited to a few selected provisions, not including the list of 
chemicals in Addendum F. The commenter requested confirmation that 
Addendum F would not be modified at this time. EPA has reviewed this 
matter and confirms that Addendum F is not being modified at this time. 
The primary intent of the current MSGP modification is to allow 
coverage of ``orphan'' facilities (those facilities covered by the 
baseline permit but not the MSGP) under the MSGP and for simplicity, 
minimize the number of other modifications.

Addition of Sector AD to the MSGP

    Several commenters expressed concerns over the proposed addition of 
Sector AD to Part XI of the MSGP. One commenter observed that there 
appears to be no need for this sector since EPA is proposing to modify 
the MSGP to cover all facilities which were covered by the BGP but 
excluded from the original MSGP. This commenter also argued that there 
would be no basis for the permit conditions if the type of facilities 
to be covered were not known.
    In Section III.F.4 of the draft fact sheet, EPA indicated that the 
modified MSGP should cover all the facilities which were covered by the 
BGP but excluded from the MSGP. As such, we expect that the commenter 
will prove to be correct regarding the need for Sector AD. 
Nevertheless, EPA has retained the sector in the final modified MSGP to 
cover any inadvertent omissions. In addition, the sector provides for a 
readily available means for permitting many Phase II storm water 
sources which may be designated by permitting authorities pursuant to 
40 CFR 122.26(g)(1)(i). The permit requirements for the new sector are 
the same as the requirements in the baseline industrial permit. Based 
on our experiences with the BGP, these requirements should be

[[Page 52456]]

appropriate and sufficiently flexible to accommodate a wide variety of 
facilities which may be permitted under Sector AD. If the requirements 
are inappropriate for a given facility, an individual permit could be 
issued.
    Other commenters argued that general permits may only be issued for 
similar (and identified) discharges and this may not be the case for 
discharges which may be covered by this sector. However, NPDES 
regulations at 40 CFR 122.28(a)(2)(i) provide broad discretion when 
issuing general permits for storm water discharges. EPA disagrees that 
the facilities and discharges which may be covered would be too 
dissimilar to be covered by a general permit. The permit conditions 
provide considerable flexibility and can be applied to a wide variety 
of facilities. Moreover, as pointed out above, individual permits could 
also be issued if the requirements of Sector AD are inappropriate for a 
particular facility.
    Commenters also objected to some of the specific permit 
requirements for Sector AD. In particular, concerns were expressed 
regarding: 1) Part XI.AD.3.a(2) which only requires a description of 
sources which may contribute ``significant'' amounts of pollutants to 
storm water discharges; 2) Part XI.AD.3.a(3) which only requires 
``appropriate'' controls for a facility; 3) Part XI.AD.3.a(3)(c) which 
provides that clean up equipment ``should'' be available for spills as 
opposed to ``must'' be available; 4) Part XI.AD.3.a(3)(d) which 
requires periodic inspections but fails to require an inspection 
interval (e.g., once per month); 5) Part XI.AD.3.a(3)(g)(i) which 
requires that permittees only certify that outfalls have been evaluated 
for non-storm water discharges ``if feasible''; and 6) the perceived 
absence of requirements for storm water controls to capture and remove 
pollutants, and for process changes such as changes in material 
handling which could prevent pollution of storm water.
    In response to these issues, EPA points out that Sector AD in Part 
XI includes the same conditions that were included in the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit issued in 1992. Further, EPA believes that 
the language is appropriate and ensures the necessary flexibility for 
the variety of facilities which could be covered by this sector. EPA 
also points out the Part XI.AD.3.a(3)(h) does require a consideration 
of structural storm water controls to capture and remove pollutants and 
requires that such controls be included in SWPPPs when appropriate. In 
addition, the permit requires a consideration of material management 
practices and whether modified practices would be available to reduce 
exposure of materials to storm water (see Part XI.AD.3.a.(3)(c) for an 
example).
    One commenter requested that EPA clarify that not all components of 
the SWPPP required by Part AD are necessarily applicable to all 
facilities. In response, EPA agrees that not all components of the 
SWPPP as described may apply to all facilities. However, each component 
must be considered by permittees in developing SWPPPs and included as 
appropriate.
    Another commenter identified typographical errors in Parts 
XI.AD.3.a(3)(g)(i) and 3.a(3)(i) which EPA has subsequently corrected 
in the final modified MSGP. The same commenter also stated that Part 
XI.AD.4 only requires that a comprehensive site compliance evaluation 
be conducted once a year, and believed that EPA's intention was that 
these evaluations be conducted ``at least once a year.'' In response, 
EPA agrees with this comment and has revised the final modified permit 
to allow for more than one evaluation per year in order to address 
changing conditions at facilities in a more timely manner.

Inclusion of Manufacturers of Leather Products Into Sector V

    Several commenters inquired about the basis for EPA's proposed 
inclusion of manufacturers of leather products into Sector V which 
covers textile mills, apparel and other fabric product manufacturing. 
The commenters argued that the use of a general permit for the 
facilities, at a minimum, would require a showing that the facilities 
would have similar discharges.
    In response, EPA points out that NPDES regulations at 40 CFR 
122.28(a)(2)(i) provide broad discretion when using general permits for 
storm water discharges. The criteria cited by the commenter regarding 
similarity of discharges and other factors apply to discharges other 
than storm water. Nevertheless, EPA believes that the nature of the 
operations and discharges from leather products manufacturers would be 
similar to other facilities in Sector V. EPA also notes that the 
facilities which are being added to Sector V manufacture finished 
products as do the existing facilities in the sector. Sector Z (leather 
tanning, which is another sector which might have been considered) 
covers facilities which produce leather from animal hides and skins. 
EPA believes Sector V is the more appropriate sector for the leather 
product manufacturers since finished products are involved in both 
cases.

Requirements of Sector N

    A commenter expressed concern regarding some of the specific 
requirements of Sector N (scrap and waste recycling) and argued that 
some of the requirements were too inflexible. In response, EPA believes 
that the commenter is mistaken regarding the perceived inflexibility of 
this sector. The permit generally requires that certain BMPs be 
considered by permittees and included in SWPPPs as appropriate as 
opposed to being absolute requirements.
    The commenter also objected that the requirements of this sector 
seemed to be more stringent than the requirements of another sector 
which, in the commenter's view, should have been at least as stringent. 
In response, EPA conducted a thorough review of available BMPs and 
monitoring requirements for the different sectors when the MSGP was 
originally issued in 1995. EPA believes that the requirements of the 
different sectors, such as Sector N, are appropriate based on the 
information submitted in the group applications concerning available 
BMPs and the monitoring results which were submitted. Therefore, no 
changes were made in response to this comment.
    The commenter also recommended that the majority of the pollutants 
for which monitoring is required in Sector N should be deleted. The 
commenter recommended that monitoring for lead should be the only 
sampling parameter required. Further, the commenter recommended that 
only one sample should be required during the term of the MSGP. In 
response, EPA points out that the list of pollutants for which 
monitoring is required by the MSGP is based on the data submitted in 
the group permit applications. EPA believes that the parameters 
selected for monitoring for Sector N are appropriate based on these 
data. EPA also believes that one sampling event only during the term of 
the permit would be inadequate to characterize the storm water 
discharges from those facilities. Therefore, no changes have been made 
to this sector in the permit.

Response to Comments on the Agency's Separate Proposal to Modify Sector 
G

    One commenter stated that it generally agreed with EPA's 
interpretation of the applicability of effluent limitation guidelines 
to the ore mining activities contained in Table G-4 of the MSGP, 
particularly the broad interpretation of the term ``mine drainage'' to 
include runoff from waste rock and overburden. The commenter requested 
that EPA reiterate its position

[[Page 52457]]

regarding this issue, but believes that use of the term ``continuing 
authorization'' for some mining operations which may have 
misinterpreted this table as well as the applicability of the effluent 
limitation guidelines in order to obtain coverage under the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit, is incorrect and should be deleted.
    On October 22, 1997, EPA proposed revisions to Sector G of the MSGP 
(62 FR 54950) to (1) delete those portions of Table G-4 that address 
effluent guidelines, (2) describe only those parts of a hard rock 
mining operation that could claim coverage under the permit, and (3) 
slightly expand the categories of sources at a hard rock mining and 
dressing operation that could claim coverage under the permit. EPA 
anticipates that this final permit modification will be published in 
the Federal Register in the near future and will clarify which 
discharges are eligible for coverage under the MSGP.

Signatory Requirements

    One commenter recommended that EPA finalize its proposal of 
December 11, 1996 (61 FR 65268), regarding NPDES signatory requirements 
concurrently with the modification of the MSGP. This would provide some 
relief by giving facility managers the authority to sign notifications.
    The proposal of December 11, 1996, is an extensive Agency-wide 
effort to respond to a directive issued by the President on February 
21, 1995, which directed Federal agencies to review their regulatory 
programs to eliminate any obsolete, ineffective, or unduly burdensome 
regulations. However, EPA has not yet completed its final response to 
the directive. EPA's response to the issue raised by the commenter will 
accompany the Agency's overall response to the directive.

Spill Response Requirements

    Comments were received suggesting that a restoration or remediation 
requirement be incorporated into the permit to address spills of oil or 
hazardous substances which require reporting to the National Response 
Center.
    In response, EPA believes that appropriate provisions are already 
in place which require MSGP permittees to: (1) implement measures to 
prevent spills or unauthorized releases; (2) ensure prompt clean-up of 
such releases to prevent their discharge during a subsequent storm 
event; and (3) revise their SWPPPs to prevent such releases in the 
future. EPA also points out that the purpose of the NPDES permit 
program is to control discharges of pollutants before they enter waters 
of the United States. Restoration could be addressed, however, through 
enforcement action against a permittee for noncompliance with the 
permit.

Guidance for Louisiana, Oklahoma and Puerto Rico Permittees

    Comments were received requesting guidance for Baseline Industrial 
General Permittees in the States of Louisiana and Oklahoma which were 
both recently authorized to implement the NPDES permitting program in 
lieu of the EPA. The date when the baseline industrial permit was 
issued in Puerto Rico was also requested. EPA's responses follow below 
by area:
Louisiana
    The State of Louisiana was authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES 
permitting program, including authority over general permits such as 
the baseline industrial permit and the MSGP, on August 27, 1996, and 
regulate all facilities in the State except those located on Indian 
country which will continue to be covered by the EPA. Operators 
completing an NOI for industrial storm water discharge permit coverage 
which answered ``yes'' to the question of whether their facility is 
located on Indian country continue to be regulated by the EPA.
    In Louisiana, the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality 
(LDEQ) is the State agency which administers the NPDES program except 
in Indian country. Currently, all Baseline Industrial General 
Permittees located outside of Indian country in Louisiana which 
submitted an NOI within the time frames prescribed in Part VII.B of the 
permit will remain covered by operation of law until they receive 
further instructions from the LDEQ. MSGP permittees located outside of 
Indian country in Louisiana are not affected by today's modifications 
to EPA's MSGP.
    To assist the LDEQ with administering its baseline industrial 
permit and MSGP outside of Indian country, EPA continues to maintain 
data management functions such as processing NOI and NOT forms. 
Permittees will be informed by the appropriate regulatory agency (i.e., 
EPA or LDEQ) when there are changes to their respective permits or 
programs.
Oklahoma
    A more detailed response is needed for industrial storm water 
discharge permitting in Oklahoma. Though the State of Oklahoma 
(specifically, the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality or 
ODEQ) was authorized by EPA to implement the NPDES permitting program 
except in Indian country on November 19, 1996, it did not include the 
authority to issue or administer general permits such as the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit or the MSGP until September 11, 1997. 
Consequently, EPA administered the industrial storm water discharge 
program in Oklahoma until that time. In addition, EPA continues to 
maintain NPDES authority over discharges from oil, gas and pipeline 
operations which are regulated at the State level by the Oklahoma 
Corporation Commission, and discharges regulated at the State level by 
the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture. Since it appears that the only 
type of facilities regulated by the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture 
which require industrial storm water discharge permitting are 
concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO), no modifications were 
proposed to the MSGP since CAFOs are covered by a different NPDES 
general permit. To summarize, the following entities will continue to 
be regulated by the EPA and not the ODEQ for industrial storm water 
discharge purposes: Operators completing an NOI for industrial storm 
water discharge permit coverage which answered ``yes'' to the question 
of whether their facility is located in Indian country; operators who 
are regulated by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission and submitted a 
Notice of Intent with a primary Standard Industrial Classification code 
in the 1300 series for oil and gas exploration and production related 
industries or pipeline operations; and facilities regulated by the 
Oklahoma Department of Agriculture. All other industrial storm water 
discharges are regulated by the ODEQ.
    Currently, all Baseline Industrial General Permittees located 
outside of Indian country in Oklahoma which submitted an NOI within the 
time frame prescribed in Part VII.B of the permit will remain covered 
by operation of law until they receive further instructions from the 
ODEQ. MSGP permittees located outside of Indian country in Oklahoma and 
not regulated by Oklahoma Corporation Commission are not affected by 
today's modifications to EPA's MSGP.
    In November 1997, the ODEQ assumed data management functions such 
as processing NOI and NOT forms for the industrial storm water 
facilities which it regulates. NOIs and NOTs received by EPA's NOI/NOT 
data center for facilities regulated by the ODEQ will be forwarded to 
the Department for processing.

[[Page 52458]]

Puerto Rico
    The Baseline Industrial General Permit was issued in Puerto Rico on 
September 25, 1992. The above information has been incorporated into 
the final Fact Sheet.

Requirements for Petroleum Refineries

    Several commenters stated that the language incorporating petroleum 
refineries into the MSGP was too broad and not restrictive enough 
considering the types and amounts of pollutants which could be 
discharged during storm events.
    EPA disagrees and believes that the proposed language places a 
clear boundary on the areas of refineries which may be eligible for 
industrial storm water discharge coverage under the MSGP. As proposed, 
EPA cautioned that areas eligible for coverage at petroleum refineries 
will be very limited because the term ``contaminated runoff,'' as 
defined under 40 CFR 419.11, includes storm water runoff which comes 
into contact with any raw material, intermediate product, finished 
product, by-product or waste product located on petroleum refinery 
property, and is therefore not eligible for coverage under the MSGP. To 
provide clarification as to which areas at a petroleum refinery may be 
eligible for MSGP coverage, provided discharges from these areas do not 
co-mingle with contaminated runoff, EPA listed as examples vehicle and 
equipment storage, maintenance and refueling areas. Further, EPA listed 
areas not eligible for MSGP coverage including those handling raw 
materials, intermediate products, by-products, waste materials, 
chemicals and material storage; loading and unloading areas; 
transmission pipelines; and processing area.
    The permit remains as proposed with the following exception. EPA 
notes that the term ``finished products'' was inadvertently omitted 
from the list of areas not eligible for permit coverage in the proposal 
and has included it in the final permit modification.

Accessibility of Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPPs)

    One commenter recommended that the MSGP provide the same type of 
public access to SWPPPs as that proposed in the reissuance of EPA's 
Construction General Permit. In response, EPA notes that the final 
Construction General Permit was revised so that it encourages but does 
not require public access to SWPPPs. The Clean Water Act grants EPA the 
authority to require the submission of information by the regulated 
community. It does not, however, require the regulated community to 
provide information to private citizens upon request. When EPA reissues 
the MSGP in the year 2000, EPA will review the current plan 
availability issues. The plan access provisions currently contained in 
the MSGP have not been modified.

Permitting of Open Dumps

    Several comments were received against the inclusion of open dumps 
in the expanded scope of coverage of the modified MSGP. Reasons ranged 
from the extreme variability of wastes received; illegality of open 
dumps; possibility of leachate first seeping through the ground then 
surfacing and becoming indistinguishable from other storm water 
discharges; and, the high potential for erosion. Other comments 
concerned the definition of ``qualified personnel'' and the 
dissemination of Discharge Monitoring Reports to local governments as 
well as to large and medium Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems 
(MS4s) that receive open dump industrial storm water discharges.
    In response, through this permit modification EPA is neither 
facilitating the continuation of open dumps nor condoning illegal waste 
disposal practices. By allowing the inclusion of open dumps under 
Section XI.L of the modified MSGP, EPA is expeditiously providing 
continued permit coverage of allowable industrial storm water 
discharges from such facilities. Non-storm water discharges such as 
leachate, and vehicle and equipment wash waters, are explicitly 
prohibited from coverage under the MSGP per Section XI.L.2.(a). Such 
non-storm water discharges would require coverage under another NPDES 
permit such as an individually drafted permit with site-specific 
effluent monitoring and limitation requirements. Since individually 
drafted permits are site-specific, they are resource and time intensive 
to draft and issue. Further, Section XI.L.3.a.(2)(a)(i) requires the 
identification and description of any potential sources of pollution, 
including leachate springs and open dumping areas. Section XI.L.3.a.(3) 
requires the development of measures to eliminate or control such 
pollutants. To assist permittees, a definition of ``leachate'' was 
included in Part XI.L.2.(a) of the permit.
    With respect to the comment that Section XI.L.2.b.(3)(h) be revised 
so that sediment and erosion control plans address areas other than 
those exhibiting a high potential for significant erosion (i.e., those 
areas that may have a potential for erosion), EPA found the language as 
originally published in the September 29, 1995, version of the MSGP to 
be acceptable and did not propose any modifications. This portion of 
the permit will remain unchanged.
    The term ``open dump'' is defined as any solid waste disposal 
facility which does not meet the criteria of Subtitle D of RCRA. 
Regulations for Subtitle D are found under 40 CFR Parts 257 and 258. 
Thus, the term could be applied to any solid waste disposal facility 
which does not comply with appropriate requirements. Implementation of 
the industrial storm water discharge management provisions contained in 
the modified MSGP will assist open dump operators with addressing 
sediment and waste run-off problems through storm water run-on and run-
off controls.
    The term ``qualified operator'' is used throughout the MSGP. It is 
a general term which means a person who is familiar with a facility's 
SWPPP and industrial operations, and can identify sources of pollution 
contacting storm water as well as devise ways to reduce or eliminate 
its impact on receiving waters. Due to the large scope of coverage of 
the MSGP, it is not feasible nor is it necessary to require a certain 
level of education, licensing or experience to meet the definition of 
``qualified personnel.'' Licenses, education and experience 
requirements are best required by other applicable Federal, State, 
Tribal or local government rules and regulations. As always, EPA 
recommends the use of good engineering, land and waste management 
practices at all landfills, land application sites and open dumps to 
minimize impacts on the environment.
    With regard to a comment that Section XI.L.5.b.(1) of the MSGP be 
modified to require that Discharge Monitoring Reports (DMRs) 
documenting sample analyses of industrial storm water discharges from 
open dumps be also sent to local governments that are operators of 
smaller than medium or large municipal separate storm sewer systems 
(i.e., based upon a population of less than 100,000), EPA believes that 
the decision to receive such information is best made at the local 
level of government. Nothing in the MSGP precludes permittees from 
complying with all applicable State, Tribal or local laws. Further, 
though EPA encourages cooperation between local governments and 
facility operators, it believes that mandating such a requirement may 
be unduly

[[Page 52459]]

burdensome on both facilities and local governments.
    In summary, due to the limited allowable types of discharges that 
Part XI.L allows for open dumps and the prohibition against the 
discharge of storm water that contacts waste (i.e., leachate), 
regulation of open dumps will remain in the final permit modification.

Sand, Gravel and Crushed Stone Mine Dewatering Discharges

    Comments were received requesting that EPA Region 1 be included 
among the Regions allowing sand, gravel and crushed stone mine 
dewatering discharges (see 40 CFR 436 Subparts B, C and D) under the 
MSGP. Currently, such mine dewatering discharges in Region 1 require 
coverage under an individual NPDES permit. Since Region 1 does not 
currently have sufficient resources to draft and issue individual NPDES 
permits to facilities solely for such discharges and MSGP limitations 
covering these discharges are adequate to protect receiving surface 
water quality, EPA is extending the coverage under Part XI. J. to 
include Region 1 along with Regions 2, 6, 10 and the State of Arizona. 
The permit has been revised accordingly.

Sampling, Inspection and Reporting Burdens Associated With the MSGP

    Comments were received concerning the increased cost and 
administrative burdens placed on the regulated community by increasing 
the inspections, sampling, analysis and reporting from annual to 
quarterly.
    In the proposed modifications to the MSGP, facilities transitioning 
to the MSGP from the baseline industrial permit would be required to 
sample their industrial storm water discharge on a quarterly basis only 
during the fourth year of the permit (i.e., October 1, 1998-September 
30, 1999), provided sampling was required in the sector(s) which 
applied to a particular facility. This would result in a maximum of 
four sampling events per facility. If sampling was required in the 
baseline industrial permit, it was on either an annual or semi-annual 
basis for each year a facility was covered by the permit. This would 
result in a maximum of five to ten sampling events for a facility which 
is comparable to the MSGP requirements. In addition, EPA proposed to 
allow transitioning baseline industrial permitees to use the last two 
years of annual or last year of semi-annual monitoring data to 
determine if fourth year MSGP sampling requirements could be waived on 
a pollutant-by-pollutant, outfall-by-outfall basis. This proposal was 
retained in the final modified MSGP.
    As in the Baseline Industrial General Permit, the MSGP provides 
sampling waivers where a permittee can certify on a pollutant-by-
pollutant basis that their industrial storm water discharge does not 
have the potential to contain the pollutant, thus relieving the 
facility from sampling for that substance at that outfall.
    With regard to inspection frequency, the MSGP does require more 
frequent inspections for certain types of facilities than the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit. However, these inspections are targeted 
toward the facilities which pose the greatest risk to storm water and 
this is generally in accord with the recommendation of the commenter. 
For reporting sampling results, the submission of DMRs is required once 
annually at the conclusion of the fourth year of the MSGP. The Baseline 
Industrial General Permit had a similar requirement for facilities 
sampling on a semi-annual basis; however, facilities which were 
required to monitor on an annual basis only needed to submit the 
results when requested by EPA.
    With regard to the comments that more complex SWPPPs will not 
result in decreased discharges of pollutants through gravel pads, EPA 
crafted the MSGP so that it provides general industrial storm water 
discharge and spill controls for maximum flexibility and applicability 
as the Baseline Industrial General Permit does, but also provides more 
industry-specific controls. These industry-specific controls provide 
SWPPP managers with additional information on identifying and 
controlling the discharge of pollutants which may improve water quality 
when compared to the Baseline Industrial General Permit. For facilities 
with gravel pads, general spill prevention measures from both permits 
would be similar (e.g., use of drip pans under leaking equipment until 
repairs can be completed; replacement of gravel pads with an impervious 
surface such as concrete to contain pollutants rather than allowing 
them to discharge or seep into the ground).

Comments Specific to Alaska

    One Alaskan commenter expressed support of EPA's position not to 
require inspections at inactive and unmanned facilities. In response, 
EPA notes that the frequency for conducting inspections varies from 
sector to sector in Part XI of the MSGP, and that some sectors allow 
for a reduction of the number of required inspections for inactive 
sites. EPA encourages permittees to carefully review the inspection 
requirements for each sector which apply to their facilities in order 
to incorporate the correct inspection frequencies into their SWPPPs. 
However, in response to comments from the Alaskan oil and gas industry, 
EPA has modified Section I of the MSGP (for Oil and Gas Extraction 
Facilities) to include the same reduced inspection frequency found in 
Sector J for temporarily or permanently inactive mineral mining 
facilities. The modification provides that only annual inspections 
(rather than quarterly or semi-annual inspections) are required for 
temporarily or permanently inactive oil and gas extraction facilities, 
but only those which are remotely located and unstaffed. EPA believes 
that this change is appropriate considering the similar nature of the 
facilities in the two sectors and will address the concerns of 
commenters regarding the accessibility of remote Alaskan oil and gas 
facilities in winter. EPA does not intend for this waiver to be applied 
merely as a cost saving measure or for convenience to limit the number 
of inspections. It should also be noted that this modification only 
applies to inactive oil and gas extraction operations (within major SIC 
group 13) and not to inactive oil refinery operations (SIC 2911) which 
are added to Sector I by today's MSGP modification.
    Another comment requested that EPA set seasonal inspection 
schedules for Alaska rather than calendar schedules. The comment stated 
that during a typical year in Alaska snow melt occurs in May or early 
June, there is little precipitation from June through August, and the 
ground is frozen from September through May. In response to this 
comment, it appears that the commenter was referring to the MSGP 
requirement that permittees conduct visual examinations of storm water 
on a quarterly calendar basis for the life of the permit unless the 
site is inactive or unstaffed and that ``the ability to conduct visual 
examinations would be severely hampered and result in the inability to 
meet the time and representative rainfall sampling specifications'' 
(see 60 FR 50829). Another waiver, which is found throughout the 
permit, allows temporary waivers from sampling requirements based on 
adverse climatic conditions which also includes periods of extended 
frozen conditions which make sample collection impractical. Though many 
facilities located in the State of Alaska appear to have unique 
climatic conditions, EPA believes that the MSGP provides sufficient 
flexibility to address those situations.

[[Page 52460]]

    Another comment requested that inspections in Alaska be performed 
before ice break-up occurs. Ice break-up affects large areas 
simultaneously, thus creating difficulty in reaching remote areas. In 
response, EPA believes that the MSGP provides sufficient flexibility 
for scheduling inspections, and, as noted above, the inspection 
frequency for temporarily or permanently inactive oil and gas 
extraction facilities which are remotely located and unstaffed was 
modified in response to comments.
    One comment was received stating that it should not be necessary to 
document the inactive/unmanned status of a facility every quarter. The 
comment stated that the waiver provision contained in the MSGP which 
addresses these facilities should remain in effect as long as the 
facility remains unmanned. In response, EPA notes that the chemical 
sampling waiver for such facilities requires that permittees certify on 
their Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) that they are utilizing the 
waiver in lieu of submitting sampling results for each monitoring 
period that the waiver is used. However, permittees do not have to 
submit such certifications on DMR's when utilizing the quarterly visual 
examination waiver. They are only required to certify uses of this 
waiver in the facility's SWPPP. EPA does not believe that these 
provisions create an undue burden on the regulated community. In fact, 
it provides an opportunity for permittees to maintain an up-to-date 
status of their inactive and unmanned facilities.
    Commenters noted that facilities in Alaska, such as oil and gas 
facilities and mineral mining facilities, are often located in remote, 
relatively inaccessible locations and that compliance with the 
monitoring requirements of the MSGP would be difficult. In response, 
the MSGP provides a waiver from the chemical and visual monitoring 
requirements for facilities which are inactive and unstaffed. As such, 
EPA believes that the MSGP addresses this concern.
    Commenters also expressed concern that a good sampling location may 
be difficult to find at the gravel pads used by the oil and gas 
industry. In response, EPA notes that the issue concerning a suitable 
sampling location is not unique to the oil and gas industry. EPA 
believes that the sampling can still be accomplished by creating an 
artificial sampling site, or simply sampling at the best available 
location. A sample for testing may also be obtained by collecting 
several smaller samples taken at representative discharge locations at 
the facility. For further guidance on this issue, dischargers should 
refer to EPA's storm water monitoring guidance manual (EPA 833-B-92-
001).
    Several additional comments were received from a commenter 
representing the Alaska oil and gas industry stating that EPA should 
recognize the special climatic conditions in Alaska. The commenter 
stated that since storm water runoff in Alaska generally occurs only 
during the months of April to September, a five-month period, quarterly 
or six-month inspections or sampling requirements are not appropriate. 
EPA notes that the MSGP provides an adverse weather sampling waiver 
which should address the commenter's concern. As noted above, EPA has 
modified Section I of the MSGP to include the same reduced inspection 
frequency for temporarily or permanently inactive oil and gas 
extraction facilities which are remotely located and unstaffed as is 
found in Section J.
    The commenter also raised the following issues:
     Field personnel routinely perform inspections to identify 
contamination to the environment during their day-to-day duties. The 
requirement for formal inspections and supporting paperwork duplicates 
ongoing efforts and provides additional administrative burden to 
produce and maintain inspection files without providing environmental 
benefit. This requirement should be deleted in consideration of the 
significant requirements the oil and gas industry already complies with 
including the Oil Pollution Act and State of Alaska regulations 18 AAC 
75.
     Chemical mixing and storage areas are generally contained 
within buildings or lined, bermed holding areas as required by the Oil 
Pollution Act and State of Alaska regulations 18 AAC 75, and should be 
deleted from detailed description requirements. The requirements for 
these areas will not provide any increased storm water protection. The 
requirement for marking hazardous materials duplicates laws and 
regulations directed toward the regulation of hazardous materials and 
is unnecessary.
     The reportable quantity release requirements also 
duplicate the requirements for the Oil Pollution Act and State of 
Alaska regulations 18 AAC 75 and should be deleted from the permit.
     The proposed site description requirements duplicate the 
requirements for the Oil Pollution Act and State of Alaska regulations 
18 AAC 75 and should be deleted from the permit.
    In response to these comments, EPA notes that such existing 
requirements may be incorporated by reference into the SWPPP to reduce 
duplication.

Cost Burden

    Many comments were received regarding the cost of complying with 
the MSGP versus the BGP. EPA developed the MSGP to include sufficient 
flexibility so an operator could design and implement a storm water 
pollution prevention program (SWPPP) in a cost effective manner 
provided it meets the goals of the NPDES program and the CWA. For 
specific industry sectors, costs may vary for the MSGP when compared to 
the BGP depending on whether the monitoring requirements increased or 
decreased and the nature of any sector specific BMP requirements. The 
MSGP also allows dispensation from monitoring under several scenarios 
if the facility can demonstrate that it doesn't have the potential to 
discharge parameters requiring monitoring. Requirements for protecting 
endangered species and historic properties may result in some added 
expenditures but EPA has minimized that burden to the extent consistent 
with providing adequate protection of those resources. Otherwise, the 
burdens and requirements of the MSGP should essentially be the same as 
for the BGP.
    For the MSGP, industry specific BMP requirements resulted from 
industry supplied data, making the regulated community a participant in 
the generation of its own permit conditions. These BMPs should be 
economically attainable since they are in use already at many 
facilities. Claims made by electric generating facilities that they 
would face increases of $60,000 to $140,000 for compliance with the new 
requirements are not felt to be valid, especially since electric 
generator monitoring requirements were reduced compared to those 
required by the BGP.
    Administrative and paperwork burdens were a concern of one 
commenter. In response, EPA again notes that the flexibility inherent 
to general permits largely makes these burdens proportional to each 
permittees' needs and technical and administrative ability. Paperwork 
requirements which must be submitted to EPA to satisfy MSGP conditions 
are minimal (e.g., a completed Notice of Intent form to obtain 
coverage, a completed Notice of Termination form to end coverage, and 
Discharge Monitoring Reports if storm water monitoring is required). 
Since other paperwork and record keeping documents can be completed 
internally (e.g., SWPPPs, spill and inspection reports), savings of 
time and money can be realized by permittees.

[[Page 52461]]

    Some comments were received regarding the need for employing 
economic analyses because pollution control requires the use of best 
conventional pollutant control technology (BCT) or best available 
control technology economically achievable (BAT). The BAT level of 
performance is the very best control and treatment measures that have 
been or are capable of being achieved for nonconventional or toxic 
pollutants. The Agency must consider the cost of attainability, but it 
is not required to balance cost against the effluent reduction 
benefits. BCT is the best technology for controlling conventional 
pollutants and for this EPA must consider the cost of attaining the 
pollution reduction against the resulting benefits. In many instances 
it is infeasible to develop numerical end-of-pipe effluent limitations 
for controlling storm water because the quality and quantity of the 
storm water at specific sites is unknown. Except for discharges subject 
to effluent limitation guidelines, the MSGP imposes BMPs as BAT/BCT in 
lieu of end-of-pipe numeric limitations consistent with 40 CFR 
122.44(k)(1) and Natural Resources Defense Council v. Costle, 568 F.2d 
1369 (D.C. Cir. 1977). The same lack of data which justifies this use 
of BMPs also renders it infeasible to precisely quantify the costs of 
pollutant removal associated with their use. The Agency may not 
generally use a lack of precise data to avoid imposing BAT/BCT 
controls; CWA Sec. 401(a)(1)(B) requires it to establish such controls 
in permits on the basis of best professional judgement (BPJ). Using its 
BPJ, EPA developed the BMPs that MSGP permittees are required to 
consider. Consequently, the flexibility accorded permittees in choosing 
which BMPs to implement in specific situations should avoid 
unreasonable economic consequences.

Paperwork Reduction Act Requirements

    One commenter stated that many aspects of the MSGP are cumbersome 
and require unneeded paperwork. In response, EPA has required a minimum 
amount of paperwork under the MSGP and specifically designed the permit 
to be as streamlined as possible. The only paperwork that is required 
to be submitted to EPA include a one-page Notice of Intent (NOI), 
discharge monitoring reports (for some facilities) and a Notice of 
Termination if a facility is terminating permit coverage. Each of these 
documents is essential and cannot be eliminated without compromising 
the integrity of the permit.
    One commenter stated that a facility should be able to file only 
one NOI for the entire facility rather than separate NOI's for each 
regulated activity, and that support activities and subsectors can be 
addressed through the facility's SWPPP. In response, EPA notes that the 
MSGP already requires that only one NOI be submitted per operator per 
facility, and that multiple activities occurring on-site are addressed 
through the facility's SWPPP. When multiple activities are conducted by 
different operators at a facility, each operator is required to submit 
a NOI for permit coverage and develop a SWPPP which addresses their 
regulated activities, or work with other on-site operators to develop a 
single comprehensive plan. Such a situation would occur at an 
industrial park. Accordingly, the permit will not be revised since it 
already addresses the commenter's concerns.
    One commenter believes few facilities changing from the BGP to the 
MSGP have storm water discharges that will impact historic properties, 
or endangered species or critical habitats. The commenter stated that 
the requirement for all permittees to submit two NOI forms to ensure 
that the relatively few dischargers that will have an impact are 
identified is counter to EPA's effort to reduce the burden on the 
regulated community. In response, the requirement for facilities 
transitioning from the BGP to the MSGP to submit another NOI, not two 
NOIs, is necessary to meet the general permit application requirements 
found at 40 CFR 122.28(b)(2), and to address sections 7(a) (2) and (9) 
of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and section 106 of the National 
Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). The burden to submit an additional 
NOI is minimal. EPA has provided guidance in the permit to minimize the 
burden of completing the ESA and NHPA certifications.

Regulatory Flexibility Act Requirements

    One commenter stated that EPA did not consider the significant 
economic impacts on industrial facilities that would result from 
termination of the BGP. Thus, EPA failed to comply with rulemaking 
requirements mandated under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, Small 
Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act, other applicable Federal 
requirements, and the Clean Water Act. The commenter stated that EPA 
must take the administrative and paperwork burdens imposed on these 
facilities into account in the storm water program. The commenter 
recommended that EPA evaluate the costs of the proposed action on 
smaller businesses.
    One commenter stated that under the Regulatory Flexibility Act 
(RFA) and Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA), 
EPA must prepare an initial and final regulatory flexibility analysis 
when the Agency has engaged in a notice-and-comment rulemaking action. 
These analyses must examine, among other things, the impact of EPA's 
proposal on small entities, and must evaluate other alternatives that 
the Agency could implement. EPA's decision not to conduct the required 
analyses under the RFA is contrary to the requirements of the RFA in 
substantive and procedural respects. The commenter believes the 
proposed permit modification would have a significant economic impact 
on numerous types of industrial facilities, and would therefore trigger 
the requirement to conduct both an initial and final regulatory 
flexibility analysis as required under SBREFA and the RFA. Further, 
EPA's assertion that its general storm water permits are not ``rules'' 
for RFA and Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA) purposes is 
contradicted by the applicable case law and other authorities which 
make clear that all Agency actions such as the proposal which have 
general applicability and affect the future conduct of regulated 
entities are properly classified as ``rules.'' EPA has effectively 
conceded the applicability of the RFA to this proceeding by certifying 
that the proposed permit modification will not have a significant 
economic impact on industry pursuant to Section 605(b) of the RFA. The 
commenter asked EPA to: (1) Withdraw the proposal until an initial 
regulatory flexibility analysis is prepared and made available for 
public comment; (2) provide a copy of this analysis to the Small 
Business Association for review and consultation with affected small 
businesses; and (3) if a proposed permit is issued following an initial 
regulatory flexibility analysis, conduct a final regulatory flexibility 
analysis, including an analysis and explanation of the steps that EPA 
has taken to minimize the significant economic impacts of the action on 
small entities and to comply with analysis requirements of SBREFA and 
RFA.
    In view of the comments received, EPA further considered whether 
NPDES general permits are subject to rulemaking requirements. The 
Agency reviewed its previous NPDES general permitting actions and 
related statements in the Federal Register or elsewhere. This review 
suggests that the Agency has generally treated NPDES general permits 
effectively as rules, though at times it has given contrary indications 
as to whether these actions are rules or permits. EPA also reviewed 
applicable laws, including the CWA,

[[Page 52462]]

relevant CWA case law and the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), as 
well as the Attorney General's Manual on the APA (1947). On the basis 
of its review, EPA has concluded that NPDES general permits are permits 
under the APA and thus not subject to APA rulemaking requirements or 
the RFA.
    The APA defines two broad, mutually exclusive categories of Agency 
actions: ``rules'' and ``orders.'' Its definition of ``rule'' 
encompasses ``an agency statement of general or particular 
applicability and future effect designed to implement, interpret, or 
prescribe law or policy or describing the organization, procedure, or 
practice requirements of an agency * * *.'' APA section 551(4). Its 
definition of ``order'' is residual: ``a final disposition * * * of an 
agency in a matter other than rule making but including licensing.'' 
APA section 551(6) (emphasis added). The APA defines ``license'' to 
``include * * * an agency permit * * *.'' APA section 551(8). The APA 
thus categorizes a permit as an order, which by the APA's definition is 
not a rule.
    Section 553 of the APA establishes ``rule making'' requirements. 
The APA defines ``rule making'' as ``the agency process for 
formulating, amending, or repealing a rule.'' APA Sec. 551(5). By its 
terms, then, Sec. 553 applies only to ``rules'' and not also to 
``orders,'' which include permits. As the Attorney General's Manual on 
the APA explains, ``the entire Act is based upon a dichotomy between 
rule making and adjudication [the agency process for formulation of an 
order]'' (p. 14).
    The CWA specifies the use of permits for authorizing the discharge 
of pollutants to waters of the United States. Section 301(a) of the CWA 
prohibits discharges of pollutants ``[except as in compliance with'' 
specified sections of the CWA, including section 402.33 U.S.C. 
Sec. 1311(a). Section 402 of the CWA authorizes EPA ``to issue a permit 
for the discharge of any pollutant * * *, notwithstanding section 
[301(a) of the CWA].'' 33 U.S.C. Sec. 1342(a). Thus, the only 
circumstances in which a discharge of pollution may be authorized is 
where the Agency has issued a permit for the discharge. Courts, 
recognizing that a permit is the necessary condition-precedent to any 
lawful discharge, specifically suggested the use of area-wide and 
general permits as a mechanism for addressing the Agency's need to 
issue a substantial number of permits. See NRDC v. Train, 396 F.Supp. 
1393, 1402 (D.D.C. 1975); NRDC v. Costle, 568 F.2d 1369, 1381. (D.C. 
Cir. 1977). Adopting the courts' suggestion, EPA has made increasing 
use of general permits in its CWA regulatory program, particularly for 
storm water discharges.
    In the Agency's view, the fact that an NPDES general permit may 
apply to a large number of different dischargers does not convert it 
from a permit into a rule. As noted above, the courts which have faced 
the issue of how EPA can permit large numbers of discharges under the 
CWA have suggested use of a general permit, not a rule. Under the APA, 
the two terms are mutually exclusive. Moreover, an NPDES general permit 
retains unique characteristics that distinguish a permit from a rule. 
First, today's modification of the MSGP is effective only with respect 
to those dischargers that choose to be bound by the permit. Thus, 
unlike the typical rule, this NPDES general permit does not impose 
immediately effective obligations of general applicability. A 
discharger must choose to be covered by this general permit and so 
notify EPA. A discharger always retains the option of obtaining its own 
individual permit. Relatedly, the terms of the NPDES general permit are 
enforceable only against dischargers that choose to make use of the 
permit. If a source discharges without authorization of a general or an 
individual permit, the discharger violates Sec. 301 of the Act for 
discharging without a permit, not for violating the terms of an NPDES 
general permit.
    Because the CWA and its case law make clear that NPDES permits are 
the congressionally chosen vehicle for authorizing discharges of 
pollutants to waters of the United States, the APA's rulemaking 
requirements are inapplicable to issuance of such permits, including 
today's general permit. Further, while the CWA requires that NPDES 
permits be issued only after an opportunity for a hearing, it does not 
require publication of a general notice of proposed rulemaking. Thus, 
NPDES permitting is not subject to the requirement to publish a general 
notice of proposed rulemaking under the APA or any other law. 
Accordingly, it is not subject to the RFA.
    At the same time, the Agency recognizes that the question of the 
applicability of the APA, and thus the RFA, to the issuance of a 
general permit is a difficult one, given the fact that a large number 
of dischargers may choose to use the general permit. Indeed, the point 
of issuing a general permit is to provide a speedier means of 
permitting large number of sources and save dischargers and EPA time 
and effort. Since the Agency hopes that many dischargers will make use 
of a general permit and since the CWA requires EPA to provide an 
opportunity for ``a hearing'' prior to issuance of a permit, EPA 
provides the public with notice of a draft general permit and an 
opportunity to comment on it. From public comments, EPA learns how to 
better craft a general permit to make it appropriate for, and 
acceptable to, the largest number of potential permittees. This same 
process also provides an opportunity for EPA to consider the potential 
impact of general permit terms on small entities and how to craft the 
permit to avoid any undue burden on small entities. This process, 
however, is voluntary, and does not trigger rulemaking or RFA 
requirements.
    In the case of the modification to the MSGP being issued today, the 
Agency has considered and addressed the potential impact of the 
modification on small entities in a manner that would meet the 
requirements of the RFA if it applied. EPA has analyzed the potential 
impact of this modification to the MSGP on small entities and found 
that it will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities. Like the existing general permit, the 
modification to the general permit will make available to many small 
entities a streamlined process for obtaining authorization to 
discharge. Of the possible permitting mechanisms available to 
dischargers subject to the CWA, NPDES general permits are designed to 
reduce the reporting and monitoring burden associated with NPDES permit 
authorization, especially for small entities with discharges having 
comparatively less potential for environmental degradation than 
discharges typically regulated under individual NPDES permits. Thus, 
general permits like the modification of the general permit at issue 
here provide small entities with a permitting application option that 
is much less burdensome than NPDES individual permit applications.
    EPA is committed to issuing general permits that meet the 
substantive and procedural requirements of the statute authorizing the 
particular general permit and any other applicable law. The Agency 
intends to review its use of general permits across EPA programs to 
ensure that its general permits meet all applicable requirements.

Protection of Endangered Species

    A large number of comments were received regarding provisions in 
the permit to protect endangered or threatened species. For reading 
convenience, similar comments have been grouped together for response 
and are listed below in items A-M.
    A. Some commenters have asked whether the permittees must address

[[Page 52463]]

only those threatened and endangered species that are listed at 
Addendum H.
    EPA wishes to clarify that permittees must address only those 
species found in Addendum H. However, the Addendum H list has been 
updated (as part of the modification) to reflect recent threatened and 
endangered species listings and proposals and has been expanded to 
include terrestrial species which may be affected by storm water 
discharges or construction of best management practices (BMPs) to 
control those discharges. As a result, the Addendum H list now contains 
all listed and proposed species for the geographic areas covered by the 
permit. The Addendum H list will be updated on a regular basis and an 
electronic copy of that list will be made available at of the Office of 
Wastewater Management website at ``http://www.epa.gov/owm''. 
Information on the availability of an electronic list is also being 
added to the Addendum H instructions.
    B. A number of comments were received regarding the area of impacts 
to be considered for listed species. Some commenters questioned EPA's 
delineation of the area of impacts to be considered. Some commenters 
believed the ``Endangered Species Act review'' should encompass the 
entire site, not just certain portions of the site.
    The MSGP criteria of the geographic areas to be examined for 
effects to species is found in Addendum H. The Addendum H instructions 
direct applicants to determine if species listed in Addendum H are 
found in proximity to a facility's storm water discharges. A species 
would be in proximity to those dischargers where the species is:
     Located in the path or immediate area through which or 
over which contaminated point source storm water flows from industrial 
activities to the point of discharge into the receiving water.
     Located in the immediate vicinity of, or nearby, the point 
of discharge into receiving waters.
     Located in the area of a site where storm water BMPs are 
planned or are to be constructed.
    These location criteria are intended to be flexible to allow for 
more accurate, site specific determinations of effects to species. The 
Addendum explicitly notes that the area to be searched/surveyed for 
listed species will vary with the size of the facility, the nature and 
quantity of the storm water discharges, and the type of receiving 
waters.
    EPA declines to require that applicants consider effects to species 
for the ``entire'' site because such criterion may not be flexible 
enough to accurately account for effects to species from storm water 
discharges. Some of the facilities covered by this permit may comprise 
only a very small portion of a large ``site'' or tract of land such as 
an industrial park. In such instances, a requirement that applicants 
examine effects to species for the entire site without regard to the 
location of storm water discharges and BMPs may impose unnecessary 
costs and other burdens on applicants. In some situations, the 
suggested criterion may not be sufficiently protective of Addendum H 
species because it does not extend beyond the borders of a site to the 
point of discharge (and immediate vicinity) in the receiving water. EPA 
believes the current criteria provide EPA and applicants with the 
appropriate degree of flexibility to determine whether species are 
directly or indirectly affected by storm water discharges and BMPs that 
are regulated under this permit.
    C. Some commenters noted that the species list in Addendum H was 
outdated and requested that EPA publish an updated list with specific 
contacts at the Fish and Wildlife Service to answer questions.
    EPA is publishing an updated list and is also providing an address 
list of Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service 
offices in the permit. The Addendum H list will be updated on a regular 
basis and an electronic copy of the updated list will be made available 
at of the Office of Wastewater Management website at ``http://
www.epa.gov/owm''. Information on the availability of an electronic 
list is also being added to the Addendum H instructions.
    D. Some commenters noted that EPA should provide complete and up-
to-date details to applicants and permittees on how to certify 
compliance with National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and ESA.
    EPA believes that the permit conditions and Addendum H (including 
the updated species list) provide comprehensive, current information on 
how to comply with the Notice of Intent ESA certification provisions. 
EPA does not believe that it would be possible to provide ``complete 
information'' to applicants/permittees for these certifications given 
the number and variety of activities covered by the permit. With 
respect to the NHPA, see EPA's response to the NHPA comments below.
    E. Some commenters have questioned the relevancy of provisions in 
the MSGP to protect endangered and threatened species. They believe 
that merely adding requirements to assess threats to species will not 
enhance pollution prevention, and if these provisions are implemented 
no companies will identify endangered species and subsequently improve 
BMPs to prevent storm water pollution. Some commenters believed that 
the requirements of the ESA apply to applicants regardless of whether 
there is a permit.
    EPA disagrees with the notion that dischargers will simply ignore 
the requirements of this permit to identify species in accordance with 
the terms of the permit. Moreover, where species are present, and steps 
are identified to ensure protection of those species, this could, 
contrary to these commenters' assertions, enhance pollution prevent 
efforts. The commenter's point about the ESA applying regardless of 
whether there is a permit is correct as it relates to section 9 of the 
Act, which prohibits take of listed species by any person, regardless 
of whether it is authorized by a federal agency. The NOI screening 
procedures applicants must undertake should assist them in complying 
with ESA Sec. 9. In addition, this process facilitates compliance by 
EPA with ESA Sec. 7(a)(2) in issuing a general permit authorizing 
numerous storm water discharges in many locations. This process ensures 
that any needed measures to protect species are implemented, but 
retains the significant advantages of reducing unnecessary paperwork, 
to the advantage of both the permittees and EPA. The benefits using a 
general permit provides to both the Agency and operators could not be 
realized without these or similar screening procedures. In the absence 
of a general permit, and given the huge administrative burden that 
would be associated with permitting these discharges individually (and 
the resulting likelihood of delays in receiving authorization, some 
industrial storm water discharges would thus likely have to choose 
between avoiding the discharges altogether or subjecting themselves to 
potential liability for violating the CWA Sec. 301(a).
    EPA believes the protection of listed and proposed species is an 
integral goal of the Clean Water Act (CWA), and it is consistent with 
the goals of both of these statutes that EPA establish the eligibility 
criteria contained in this general permit. This permit basically 
establishes an optional process (i.e., an alternative to the individual 
permitting process) that dischargers may seek to pursue, and which 
provides the significant advantage for the permittees of potentially 
receiving authorization to discharge far more quickly that would

[[Page 52464]]

be possible through the individual permitting process.
    The primary goal of the CWA is the restoration and maintenance of 
the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the Nation's 
waters. This includes the attainment of water quality that provides for 
the protection and propagation of fish, shellfish, wildlife. See 33 
U.S.C. 1251. In EPA's view, the breadth of these goals are entirely 
consistent with the goal of protecting threatened and endangered 
species. Moreover, EPA has broad authority under the CWA to include 
conditions in NPDES that are necessary to implement water quality 
standards requirements established by the Act, and those standards are 
designed to ensure to protect, among other things, use of waters by 
aquatic-dependent wildlife. See CWA sections 301(b)(1)(C) and 303(c).
    The eligibility provisions of the MSGP only authorize storm water 
discharges and the construction of BMPs that are not likely to 
adversely affect species identified in Addendum H, or are authorized 
under the ESA through the successful conclusion of ESA Sec. 7 
consultation (formal or informal) or by obtaining an ESA Sec. 10 
permit. See 60 FR 51112 (Sept. 29, 1995). EPA also notes that Sec. 9 
ESA places an obligation on applicants/permittees to ensure that their 
activities do not result in any prohibited takes of species (e.g., 
harassment or harm). This obligation applies regardless of whether a 
discharger's activities are authorized by a federal agency that is 
subject to the requirements of Sec. 7 of the ESA. Nonetheless, 
compliance with the eligibility criteria for coverage under this permit 
should facilitate permittee's compliance with their own obligations 
under Sec. 9.
    F. Some commenters complained about the burden imposed by the 
MSGP's endangered and threatened species eligibility screening 
provisions. Other commenters found the Addendum H provisions to be 
burdensome and impractical for existing dischargers. Other commenters 
have alleged that these provisions violate the Paperwork Reduction Act 
(PRA).
    The provisions to protect species in the MSGP were drafted in 
consultation with the Services. They were written to provide applicants 
the greatest degree of flexibility in ensuring that their activities 
are protective of endangered and threatened species. The MSGP has been 
in use since September 29, 1995, and EPA has found that the ESA 
provisions do not appear to have caused any wide spread delay or 
difficulties in applicants obtaining permit coverage. Out of a total of 
over 10,000 applicants, slightly more than 5% reported that Addendum H 
species were found to be in proximity to the facility. Of that total 
number, EPA believes that fewer than 10 applicants where denied permit 
coverage on this basis of impacts to endangered and threatened species. 
Thus, EPA believes the Addendum H procedures are not overly burdensome 
to applicants.
    With respect to the PRA, EPA notes that the MSGP is covered by 
current information collection requests (OMB Nos. 2040-0004, 2040-0086, 
and 2040-0110) and is in compliance with the PRA.
    G. Some commenters asserted that the review requirements of the ESA 
apply to Federal actions but not to those of individual permittees. 
They believe that EPA is seeking to expand the scope of the ESA to 
private businesses whose industrial activities cannot reasonably be 
viewed as actions of the Federal Government. If EPA's approach was 
consistently applied, some commenters believed that any Federally 
regulated activity would be subject to ESA review requirements.
    Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA requires that Federal agencies consult 
with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) or the National Marine 
Fisheries Service (NMFS) (``the Services'') to insure that any action 
authorized, funded or carried out by them (also known as ``agency 
actions'') are not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any 
listed species or result in the destruction or adverse modification of 
critical habitat. The ESA Sec. 7 implementing regulations at 50 CFR 402 
apply this consultation requirement to any action authorized by a 
Federal agency that may affect listed species or critical habitat, 
including permits. Those regulations also define action to include, but 
are not limited to: ``the granting of licenses, contracts, leases, 
easements, rights-of-way, permits, or grants-in-aid'' or ``actions 
directly or indirectly causing modifications to the land, water, or 
air.'' See 50 CFR 402.02. In light of the plain meaning of the ESA and 
its implementing regulations, EPA believes the scope of consultations 
on its permit actions must include the actions of its permittees. As 
explained above, EPA could not comply with ESA Sec. 7(a)(2) in 
authorizing this many discharges in a reasonable time if it had to make 
``no effect'' determinations or consult on each discharge and on each 
BMP employed to control them.
    By allowing them to use procedures functionally equivalent to those 
EPA uses in issuing individual permits, the Agency has provided a 
mechanism which applicants may use to avoid long delays which are 
typically associated with obtaining individual permits for their storm 
water discharges. Operators that think the NOI screening procedures are 
too onerous may choose to apply for individual permits, but they should 
be aware that it will probably take them far longer to obtain discharge 
authorizations.
    With respect to actions authorized by other Federal agencies, those 
agencies must make their own determinations on the applicability of ESA 
Sec. 7. See 50 CFR 402.14(a).
    H. Some commenters have also noted that the review process selected 
by EPA is irrational and creates a subsequent risk of unequally treated 
dischargers.
    While EPA is not sure what is meant by ``unequally treated 
dischargers,'' EPA assumes that the commenters are concerned that the 
MSGP requires some applicants to undertake measures to protect listed 
species while not imposing such requirements on others. EPA notes that 
the permit treats all applicants fairly by requiring that all 
applicants meet the same eligibility criteria for permit coverage. 
However, this permit regulates the storm water discharges and requires 
site-specific storm water controls for thousands of facilities 
throughout the United States. To require that all permittees develop 
identical treatment plans would impose unnecessary economic burdens on 
many permittees and not provide sufficient environmental controls 
(including those for the protection for listed and proposed species) 
for others. Instead, the MSGP allows each facility to develop its own 
individually tailored storm water pollution prevention plan (SWPPP). 
This gives applicants and permittees the flexibility to ensure that 
their permitted activities are protective of the environment in a cost 
efficient manner. Since the presence or absence of listed species are 
factors that are specific to each facility, EPA believes that the ESA 
certification process in the permit is the best way to ensure that 
species are protected in a cost effective manner.
    I. Some commenters questioned the accuracy of EPA's list of species 
and allege that the list is created out of data which is not disclosed 
on record, and that such a list could impose huge burdens on 
applicants. The commenters noted that some applicants may have the 
misfortune to be located in a county which the government claims is 
occupied by an endangered or threatened species and can be required to 
undertake, without regard to cost, a full biological survey.

[[Page 52465]]

    The Addendum H species list is based on a database developed by 
EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP). The OPP database was 
developed in close cooperation with the Services to assist EPA in 
meeting ESA Sec. 7 consultation requirements for its pesticides 
programs and has been used successfully in that role for a number of 
years. Most of the underlying information for the OPP database (and 
hence the Addendum H list) comes from Federal Register notices for 
listing and proposing endangered and threatened species. These 
``listing documents'' undergo public notice and comment and contain 
information on the location of species (usually in the form of maps). 
They frequently include county location information. Where more 
specific information was required to determine which county(ies) 
species were located in, EPA staff conducted further research, often 
using the supporting documentation for the listing documents. Where 
necessary, EPA consulted with the Services' Regional and Field offices 
that authored a particular listing document. While it is possible that 
there may be some minor errors because of inherent difficulties in 
establishing location data for some mobile species, EPA believes that 
the Addendum H list is substantially accurate for its intended purpose 
of notifying applicants whether further inquiry is needed to assess 
whether Addendum H species are in proximity to the facility.
    EPA notes that the MSGP does not require that all applicants 
conduct formal biological surveys to determine if Addendum H species 
are located in proximity to a facility. In fact, the permit does not 
require that the applicant use a specific method. Instead, it directs 
applicants to use the method or methods which best allows them to 
determine to the best of their knowledge whether species are in 
proximity to their facility. See 60 FR 51278. These methods may 
include: Visual inspections, contacting State wildlife agencies or the 
Services, contacting local or regional conservation groups, as well as 
conducting biological surveys. EPA notes that slightly more than 5% of 
permit applicants reported that species were in proximity to their 
facilities. Overall, EPA does not believe this process imposes too 
great a burden on applicants.
    J. Some commenters noted that any ESA review requirements do not 
apply to permitting actions undertaken by NPDES authorized States and 
that EPA should not intend to impose such procedures on States.
    EPA agrees with this comment that ESA section 7 does not apply to 
States but notes that State NPDES permits are issued under State law 
and are not within the scope of this EPA permitting action.
    K. Some commenters have asked that the ESA review procedures be 
streamlined.
    EPA declines to take this action for reasons listed above in item 
F. above. EPA believes the current approach contained in the MSGP's 
Addendum H review procedures provides applicants with the greatest 
degree of flexibility in ensuring the protection of threatened and 
endangered species in a cost effective manner. To assist applicants 
with completing the Addendum H review procedures, EPA has updated the 
County/Species List and provided additional sources which can be 
referenced after October 8, 1998, to identify future revisions to the 
list (see comment A of this section).
    L. Some commenters complained that the ESA review process cannot 
provide answers to questions regarding distances downstream from 
permitted discharges for adverse effect assessments.
    EPA cannot provide answers on how far downstream from the point of 
discharge applicants must search for the presence of species because 
this area will vary with each facility. Instead, EPA directs applicants 
to check whether Addendum H species are located in the immediate 
vicinity of, or nearby, the point of discharge into receiving waters. 
EPA believes this standard is appropriate given the large number and 
variety of facilities covered the permit and because any permitted 
storm water discharges must meet water quality standards (in the 
receiving waters, including any downstream water quality standards) 
which are designed to be protective of aquatic life and consequently 
listed species.
    M. Some commenters have expressed concerns about the degree of 
certainty which must be made in the permit application. The application 
(i.e., NOI form) requires that applicants certify ``to the best of my 
knowledge'' that a storm water discharge or construction of a BMP will 
not impact endangered or threatened species, whereas ESA Sec. 7(a)(3) 
requires that EPA consult with the US Fish and Wildlife Service where 
the applicant has ``reason to believe'' that an endangered or 
threatened species may be present in area affected by his project. The 
commenters believe it is unfair to hold applicants to a higher standard 
and have requested that EPA adopt the statutory standard for the NOI.
    Congress enacted ESA Sec. 7(a)(3) in 1982 to establish the ``early 
consultation'' process under which a prospective permit applicant who 
``has reason to believe'' a listed species may be present in its 
project area may compel the prospective permitting agency to consult 
even before it receives the permit application. This enables 
prospective applicants to avoid delays in subsequent permit actions and 
allows them to resolve endangered species issues at an early stage of 
project planning when submission of a permit application would be 
premature. The ``reason to believe'' threshold for initiating early 
consultation does not, however, apply to a Federal agency's obligation 
to consult under ESA Sec. 7(a)(2). Unless it can rely on an earlier 
consultation, the agency must consult on any action which may affect 
listed species regardless of whether it has reason to believe the 
species is present in the action area. Only after it affirmatively 
finds no listed species are present may the agency forego consultation 
if the action might otherwise affect them.
    As explained earlier in this notice, the NOI screening process 
established at Addendum H allows EPA to authorize a large number of 
discharges in many locations without the delays associated with 
independent consideration of each discharge and each BMP used to 
control them. Although it serves some of the same purposes as early 
consultation, the NOI screening process is designed to allow efficient 
EPA compliance with ESA Sec. 7(a)(2), not ESA Sec. 7(a)(3). All factual 
assertions in NPDES permit applications are subject to the ``best of my 
knowledge'' standard under 40 CFR 122.22(d) and there is no apparent 
reason to depart from it in NOIs submitted to obtain coverage under the 
MSGP.

Protection of Historic Properties

    Many comments were received regarding permit eligibility 
requirements to protect historic properties. For reading convenience, 
similar comments have been grouped together for response and are listed 
below in items A.-H.
    A. A number of commenters contend that EPA has not provided 
sufficient guidance to assist applicants in completing the National 
Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) NOI screening process. At a minimum, 
EPA should provide a list of State Historic Preservation Officers 
(SHPOs) or State Historic Preservation Agencies.
    In response, EPA has included guidance in the final permit 
modification under new Addendum I

[[Page 52466]]

for applicants to use when determining whether their industrial storm 
water discharge or construction of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to 
control such discharges, may have an adverse effect on historic 
properties. The guidance includes a stepwise procedure, an address list 
of State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPOs), Tribal Historic 
Preservation Officers (THPOs), and the Advisory Council on Historic 
Preservation.
    B. Some commenters have noted that EPA has failed to mention that 
adverse impacts to historic resources can include visual impacts and 
that some areas consider structures as recent as 50 years old to be 
potentially ``historic.''
    EPA acknowledges that adverse effects to historic properties, as 
defined in the NHPA regulations, can include visual impacts. EPA also 
acknowledges that historic properties can include structures that are 
50 years or older.
    C. Some commenters have complained that determining the impacts to 
``historic protected resources'' can be cost prohibitive for small 
businesses and will require the hiring of consultants.
    EPA believes that the MSGP provides for the consideration of 
historic properties in a cost effective manner for all applicants. The 
vast majority of dischargers covered under the MSGP are existing 
facilities that discharge storm water into well defined areas or 
pathways. In most of those situations, EPA believes it is a relatively 
simple matter to determine if the storm water discharges are adversely 
affecting historic properties. In many cases, a visual inspection may 
suffice. While the construction of structural BMPs may have a greater 
potential impact on historic properties, EPA believes that only a very 
small percentage of sites will have that potential. EPA expects the 
likelihood of adverse effects to historic properties will be small for 
most facilities covered under the MSGP.
    D. Some commenters noted that while the MSGP requirements to 
protect historic resources constitute a significant improvement over 
past practices, they questioned how EPA intended for NHPA certification 
to be accomplished. In particular, they wondered whether this 
certification was left up to the applicant, or whether supporting 
documentation was required.
    EPA is not requiring that applicants provide EPA with any 
documentation for the basis of their eligibility certifications in the 
NOI. However, meeting the permit eligibility requirements may require 
that an applicant enter into a written agreement with a SHPO or THPO 
which describes mutually agreed upon actions that the applicant will 
undertake to avoid, reduce or mitigate adverse effects to historic 
properties. As a general matter, applicants are advised to document the 
basis of their eligibility certifications since a failure to correctly 
certify eligibility may render the applicant/permittee ineligible for 
permit coverage and possibly be subject to Clean Water Act enforcement 
for unpermitted discharges or other Federal actions.
    E. One commenter asked for clarification regarding what was meant 
by the phrase on the NOI form that asks ``[i]s the applicant subject to 
and in compliance with a written historic preservation agreement.''
    A written historic preservation agreement is an agreement in 
writing between a SHPO/THPO and an applicant which outlines all 
measures to be taken by the applicant to mitigate or prevent adverse 
effects to a historic property. EPA intends for these agreements to 
document and provide assurance that effects to historic properties from 
activities regulated by the MSGP are given an appropriate level of 
consideration. EPA wishes to clarify that the NHPA does not prohibit 
adverse effects to historic properties. It merely requires that such 
effects be considered so as to avoid unnecessary harm to historic 
properties.
    F. Some commenters recommended that EPA develop guidance for the 
NHPA certification provisions that is similar to that which is found at 
Addendum H for endangered species. Some commenters also complained that 
EPA does not explain how applicants are to comply with the 
certification provisions of the NHPA.
    As mentioned above in response to comment B., EPA has included such 
guidance in new Addendum I to the MSGP.
    G. Some commenters contend that certifying that discharges have no 
adverse effects on historic properties has no relevance to controlling 
pollution from storm water. They have requested that the NHPA 
provisions be removed from the permit.
    As mentioned above in the Fact Sheet to this permit, EPA believes 
that NHPA Sec. 106 places obligations on it to ensure that effects to 
historic properties are considered for both the issuance of the MSGP 
and for those activities regulated by it. In light of those 
requirements, EPA declines to remove the NHPA eligibility provisions 
from the permit.
    EPA believes its authority to include these eligibility provisions 
to be well established. The NHPA has been listed in 40 CFR 122.49 of 
EPA's permit regulations since 1979 as a Federal law which may apply to 
EPA issuance of NPDES permits. See 44 FR 32917 (June 7, 1979). EPA's 
regulations at 40 CFR 122.49(b) and 122.43(a) provide for measures in 
procedures prior to issuance of NPDES permits to protect historic 
properties where feasible. For purposes of NHPA section 106, EPA's 
issuance of the MSGP falls within the definition of ``Federal 
undertakings'' in the existing NHPA regulations which define that term 
to include ``any project, activity, or program that can result in 
changes in the character or use of historic properties, if any such 
historic properties are located in the area of potential effects * * * 
[and the project, activity, or program is] under the direct or indirect 
jurisdiction of a Federal agency or licensed or assisted by a Federal 
agency.'' See 36 CFR 802(o) and 16 USC section 470w(7) which contains a 
reference to Federal permits in the statutory definition of 
``undertaking'' in the 1992 amendments to the NHPA.
    While it is possible that some NHPA considerations may not relate 
to the goal of protecting water quality, many NHPA considerations will 
relate to that goal; e.g., where BMPs are to be constructed nearby or 
on historic properties. Therefore, EPA believes that conditions to 
ensure consideration of historic properties as a precondition for 
eligibility are appropriate for Federally-issued NPDES general permits.
    H. Some commenters have alleged that these NHPA requirements 
violate the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA).
    In response, EPA notes that information required by applicants to 
determine if they are eligible for MSGP coverage is authorized by 
current Information Collection Requests from the US Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB Nos. 2040-0004, 2040-0086, and 2040-0110) 
and is in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act.

* * * * *
    6. National Historic Preservation Act. In order to be eligible for 
coverage under this permit, the applicant must be in compliance with 
the National Historic Preservation Act. A discharge of storm water 
associated with industrial activity may be covered under this permit 
only if:
    (i) The discharge does not affect a property that is listed or is 
eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places as 
maintained by the Secretary of the Interior; or
    (ii) The applicant has obtained and is in compliance with a written 
agreement between the applicant and the State Historic Preservation 
Officer (SHPO) or Tribal Historic Preservation Officer (THPO) that 
outlines all measures to be undertaken by the applicant to mitigate or 
prevent adverse effect to the historic property.
    Addendum I of this permit provides guidance and references to 
assist applicants with determining their facility's permit eligibility 
concerning this provision.

III. NOI Submittal Deadline for Facilities Transferring From the 
Baseline Industrial General Permit

Part II (Amended)

    The deadline for NOI submittal for facilities currently covered by 
the Baseline Industrial General Permit that are being transferred to 
the MSGP is established by adding Part II.A.9 to the MSGP. Also added 
is Part II.A.10 which instructs facilities ineligible to transfer to 
the MSGP because of Endangered Species Act or National Historic 
Preservation Act requirements to apply for an individual NPDES permit 
from the appropriate EPA Regional Office.

Part II. Notification Requirements

A. Deadlines for Notification
* * * * *
    9. Facilities Being Transferred to the Multi-Sector General Permit 
as a Result of the Expiration of the Baseline Industrial General 
Permit. Facilities currently covered by the Baseline Industrial General 
Permit for an existing storm water discharge associated with industrial 
activity that have not already submitted an NOI in accordance with Part 
II.A.6 to transfer coverage to the Multi-Sector General Permit, shall 
do so on or before 90 days after the effective date of the modification 
of the Multi-Sector Permit. The requirements of the Baseline Industrial 
General Permit will continue to apply to facilities transferring permit 
coverage during this time period where an extension of the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit has been acquired by the permittee in 
accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).
    Where an extension of the Baseline Industrial General Permit has 
been acquired by a permittee under the provisions of the APA, coverage 
under such extended permit shall terminate in all applicable areas 92 
days after the effective date of the modified MSGP with the exception 
of facilities subject to Part II.A.10 and for facilities located in the 
following areas: Federal facilities in Colorado; and Indian Country 
lands located in the States of Colorado (including the portion of the 
Ute Mountain Reservation located in New Mexico), Montana, North Dakota, 
South Dakota (including the portion of the Pine Ridge Reservation 
located in Nebraska), Utah (except for the Goshute and Navajo 
Reservation lands (see Region 9)), and Wyoming.
    10. Facilities Ineligible for Transfer to the Multi-Sector General 
Permit from the Baseline Industrial General Permit. Facilities seeking 
storm water permit coverage who, after attempting to comply with all 
eligibility conditions of the permit, are still ineligible for transfer 
to the Multi-Sector General Permit due to Endangered Species Act 
requirements, National Historic Preservation Act requirements or other 
requirements of the permit shall submit an application for an 
individual NPDES permit to the appropriate EPA Regional Office listed 
in Part I.A of this permit. These individual permit applications shall 
be submitted no later than 90 days after the effective date of the 
modified Multi-Sector General Permit.

IV. Deadlines for Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan Preparation 
and Compliance for Facilities Transferring from the Baseline 
Industrial General Permit

Part IV (Amended)

    For facilities transferring to the MSGP as a result of the 
expiration of the Baseline Industrial General Permit, the deadline for 
storm water pollution prevention plan preparation and compliance is 
established in the MSGP by adding Part IV.A.10 as follows:

    D. Monitoring Requirements for Dischargers Transferring Permit 
Coverage to Multi-Sector General Permit as a Result of Expiration of 
Baseline Industrial General Permit, and Other Dischargers Obtaining 
Multi-Sector General Permit Coverage After September 30, 1997.
    Facilities transferring permit coverage to the Multi-Sector General 
Permit as a result of the expiration of the Baseline Industrial General 
Permit, and other dischargers (i.e., new dischargers; existing 
dischargers formerly unpermitted under either an individually-drafted 
NPDES permit or another NPDES general permit; and, dischargers 
transitioning industrial storm water discharge permit coverage from an 
individually drafted NPDES permit to the Multi-Sector General Permit) 
obtaining coverage after September 30, 1997, are required to monitor in 
accordance with the applicable requirements listed in Part XI. during 
the 4th year of the Multi-Sector Permit (October 1, 1998-September 30, 
1999). Submittal of Discharge Monitoring Report Forms (or 
certifications) reporting monitoring results are to be postmarked no 
later than March 31, 2000, and sent to the appropriate EPA Regional 
Office listed in Part VI.B.
    Facilities with discharges subject to numeric effluent limitations 
that are eligible for coverage (see Part V.B., Part XI.A.4. Part 
XI.C.5., Part XI.D.4., Part XI.E.4., Part XI.J.4., and Part XI.O.4.) 
are to monitor and report as required by the permit.
    Facilities transitioning from the Baseline Industrial General 
Permit to the Multi-Sector General Permit may use their two most recent 
monitoring results, on a parameter-by-parameter, outfall-by-outfall 
basis which were obtained through Baseline Permit monitoring 
requirements, to compare with appropriate monitoring cut-off 
concentrations in order to meet the Multi-Sector's 4th year monitoring 
requirements mentioned above. This provision is only allowable where 
such data represents current industrial storm water discharges from a 
facility. Facilities with discharges subject to the numeric effluent 
limitations mentioned above cannot use previously generated sampling 
data and must conduct monitoring for the life of the Multi-Sector 
General Permit for those discharges.

VI. Modification of Types of Facilities Covered by the MSGP; 
Inclusion of Effluent Limitations for Wet Deck Storage Areas; and, 
Addition of New Part XI.AD.

Part XI (Amended)

    1. Parts XI.A.4 and 5 are amended to include technology-based 
effluent limitations and monitoring requirements for non-storm water 
discharges from wet deck storage areas as currently authorized under 
Part XI.A.2.a(2) of the MSGP.
    2. Part XI.C.1 is amended by adding subsector ``i'' which 
authorizes discharges from facilities within SIC Code 283. The previous 
Part XI.C.2 is deleted which had not authorized discharges from SIC 
code 283 facilities. The previous Part XI.C.1.i is renumbered as Part 
XI.C.2. Also, clarification is added in Part XI.C.1.h that facilities 
with SIC code 3952 other than those listed are covered by Part XI.Y.
    3. Part XI.D.1.e. is amended to show the appropriate parts of the 
permit which provide coverage for storm water discharges from petroleum 
refineries (Part XI.I.), oil recycling facilities (Part XI.N.), and fat 
and oil rendering facilities (Part XI.U.).
    4. Part XI.E.1 is amended to authorize discharges from 
manufacturers of the following products: glass products made of 
purchased glass (SIC code 3231); vitreous china plumbing fixtures, and 
china and earthenware fittings and bathroom accessories (SIC code 
3261), lime (SIC code 3274), stone and stone products (SIC code 3281); 
abrasive products (SIC code 3291); asbestos products (SIC code 3292), 
mineral wool (SIC code 3296), and nonmetallic mineral products not 
elsewhere classified (SIC code 3299). Also, the SIC code exclusions in 
the existing Part XI.E.1 pertaining to SIC codes 3274, 3281, 3291, 3292 
and 3296 are deleted.
    Part XI.E.5.a. is modified to include the following categories of 
facilities among those which must conduct analytical monitoring: 
manufacturers of vitreous china plumbing fixtures, and china and 
earthen ware fittings and bathroom accessories (SIC code 3261) and lime 
(3274). The monitoring requirements for SIC code 3261 facilities are 
found in Table E-1 and the requirements for SIC code 3274 facilities 
are found in Table E-2.
    5. Part XI.I.1.a. is amended to authorize discharges from 
facilities in SIC code 2911 (petroleum refineries), except for 
discharges subject to effluent limitations guidelines.
    6. Part XI.J.1.a.(1) is amended to authorize mine dewatering 
discharges composed entirely of storm water or ground water seepage 
from construction sand and gravel, industrial sand, and crushed stone 
mining facilities located in EPA Regions I, II and X. Similar revisions 
are made to Part XI.J.4.a. (Numeric Effluent Limitations) and Part 
XI.J.5.b. (Monitoring and Reporting Requirements). These discharges 
were originally authorized in the MSGP from only those facilities 
located in EPA Region VI and Arizona in EPA Region IX.
    7. Parts XI.L.1 and 2 are amended to authorize discharges from open 
dumps. Similar language changes have been

[[Page 52483]]

made in Parts XI.L.3, 4 and 5 to include applicability to open dumps.
    8. Part XI.P.1 is amended to authorize discharges from facilities 
in SIC code 4221-4225 (public warehousing and storage) that do not have 
vehicle and equipment maintenance shops and/or equipment cleaning 
operations but have areas (exclusive of access roads and rail lines) 
where material handling equipment or activities, raw materials, 
intermediate products, final products, waste materials, by-products or 
industrial machinery are exposed to storm water.
    9. Part XI.V.1 is amended to authorize industrial storm water 
discharges from facilities in SIC code 31 (except 3111), which covers 
manufacturers of finished leather and artificial leather products.
    10. Part XI.X.1 is amended to clarify that this sector authorizes 
industrial storm water discharges from all SIC 27 facilities.
    11. Part XI.AA.1 is amended to clarify that this sector authorizes 
industrial storm water discharges from all SIC 34 facilities.
    12. Part XI.AD. is added to provide an industrial sector for 
facilities which meet the definition of storm water associated with 
industrial activity (40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)) and are required by the 
Director to obtain permit coverage in accordance with 40 CFR 
122.26(a)(1)(v) or 40 CFR 122.26(a)(9) and 122.26.(g)(1)(i), but cannot 
be classified in another industrial sector of this permit (i.e., Parts 
XI.A--XI.AC).
    13. Part XI.I.3.a.(3)(d) is modified to require only annual 
inspections (rather than quarterly or semi-annual inspections) of 
temporarily or permanently inactive oil and gas extraction facilities 
which are unstaffed and remotely located.
    The final revisions of the MSGP listed above in PART XI (AMENDED), 
items 1 through 13, appear in the modified MSGP as follows:

Part XI. Specific Requirements for Industrial Activities

A. Storm Water Discharges Associated With Industrial Activity From 
Timber Products Facilities
* * * * *
2. Special Conditions
    a. Prohibition of Non-storm Water Discharges.
* * * * *

shall be met by existing and new dischargers.
    a. Wet Deck Storage Area Runoff. Non-storm water discharges from 
areas used for the storage of logs where water, without chemical 
additives, is intentionally sprayed or deposited on logs to deter decay 
or infestation by insects are required to meet the following effluent 
limitations: pH shall be within the range of 6.0-9.0, and there will be 
no discharge of debris. Chemicals are not allowed to be applied to the 
stored logs. The term ``debris'' is defined as woody material such as 
bark, twigs, branches, heartwood or sapwood that will not pass through 
a 2.54 cm (1 in.) diameter round opening and is present in the 
discharge from a wet deck storage area. Dischargers subject to these 
numeric limitations must be in compliance with these limitations 
through the duration of permit coverage.
    5. Monitoring and Reporting Requirements.
* * * * *
    d. Compliance Monitoring Requirements. Permittees with log storage 
area spray water discharges which are covered by this permit must 
monitor the discharge for the presence of debris and pH at least 
annually beginning October 1, 1998, and continuing for the duration of 
permit coverage. Facilities must report in accordance with 5.d.(2) 
below (reporting). In addition to the parameters listed above, the 
permittee shall provide an estimate of the total volume (in gallons) of 
the discharge sampled.
    (1) Sample Type. A minimum of one grab sample shall be taken. All 
samples shall be collected from the discharge point of the wet deck 
storage area and will not be taken during a storm water event. The grab 
sample shall be taken during the first 30 minutes of the discharge. If 
the collection of a grab sample during the first 30 minutes is 
impracticable, a grab sample can be taken during the first hour of the 
discharge, and the discharger shall submit with the monitoring report a 
description of why a grab sample during the first 30 minutes was 
impracticable.
    (2) Reporting. Permittees with log storage area spray water 
discharges shall submit monitoring results, obtained during the 
reporting period beginning on the effective date of permit 
modification, on Discharge Monitoring Report Form(s) postmarked no 
later than November 30 of each year following each annual monitoring 
period. Signed copies of Discharge Monitoring Reports shall be 
submitted to the Director of the NPDES program at the address of the 
appropriate Regional Office indicated in Part VI.B. of this permit. For 
each outfall, one signed Discharge Monitoring Report form shall be 
submitted for each sampling event.
    (3) Additional Notification. In addition to filing copies of 
discharge monitoring reports in accordance with paragraph (2) (above), 
permittees with discharges of log storage area spray water through a 
large or medium municipal separate storm sewer system (systems serving 
a population of 100,000 or more) must submit signed copies of discharge

Training should address topics such as spill response, good 
housekeeping and material management practices. The pollution 
prevention plan shall identify periodic dates for such training.
    (f) Recordkeeping and Internal Reporting Procedures. A description 
of incidents (such as spills, or other discharges), along with other 
information describing the quality and quantity of storm water 
discharges shall be included in the plan required under this part. 
Inspections and maintenance activities shall be documented and records 
of such activities shall be incorporated into the plan.
    (g) Non-storm Water Discharges.
    (i) The plan shall include a certification that the discharge has 
been tested or evaluated for the presence of non-storm water 
discharges. The certification shall include the identification of 
potential significant sources of non-storm water at the site, a 
description of the results of any test and/or evaluation for the 
presence of non-storm water discharges, the evaluation criteria or 
testing method used, the date of any testing and/or evaluation, and the 
onsite drainage points that were directly observed during the test. 
Certifications shall be signed in accordance with Part VII.G. of this 
permit. Such certification may not be feasible if the facility 
operating the storm water discharge associated with industrial activity 
does not have access to an outfall, manhole, or other point of access 
to the ultimate conduit which receives the discharge. In such cases, 
the source identification section of the storm water pollution 
prevention plan shall indicate why the certification required by this 
part was not feasible, along with the identification of potential 
significant sources of non-storm water at the site. A discharger that 
is unable to provide the certification required by this paragraph must 
notify the Director in accordance with paragraph XI.AD.3.a.(3)(g)(iii) 
(below).
    (ii) Except for flows from fire fighting activities, sources of 
non-storm water listed in Part III.A.2 (Prohibition of Non-storm Water 
Discharges) of this permit that are combined with storm water 
discharges associated with industrial activity must be identified in 
the plan. The plan shall identify and ensure the implementation of 
appropriate pollution prevention measures for the non-storm water 
component(s) of the discharge.
    (iii) Failure to Certify. Any facility that is unable to provide 
the certification required (testing for non-storm water discharges), 
must notify the Director 180 days after submitting an NOI to be covered 
by this permit. If the failure to certify is caused by the inability to 
perform adequate tests or evaluations, such notification shall 
describe: the procedure of any test conducted for the presence of non-
storm water discharges; the results of such test or other relevant 
observations; potential sources of non-storm water discharges to the 
storm sewer; and why adequate tests for such storm sewers were not 
feasible. Non-storm water discharges to waters of the United States 
which are not authorized by an NPDES permit are unlawful, and must be 
terminated.
    (h) Sediment and Erosion Control. The plan shall identify areas 
which, due to topography, activities, or other factors, have a high 
potential for significant soil erosion, and identify structural, 
vegetative, and/or stabilization measures to be used to limit erosion.
    (i) Management of Runoff. The plan shall contain a narrative 
consideration of the appropriateness of traditional storm water 
management practices (practices other than those which control the 
generation or source(s) of pollutants) used to divert, infiltrate, 
reuse, or otherwise manage storm water runoff in a manner that reduces 
pollutants in storm water discharges from the site. The plan shall 
provide that measures that the permittee determines to be reasonable 
and appropriate shall be implemented and maintained. The potential of 
various sources at the facility to contribute pollutants to storm water 
discharges associated with industrial activity [see paragraph 
XI.AD.3.a.(2) of this section (Description of Potential Pollutant 
Sources)] shall be considered when determining reasonable and 
appropriate measures. Appropriate measures or equivalent measures may 
include: vegetative swales, reuse of collected storm water (such as for 
a process or as an irrigation source), inlet controls (such as oil/
water separators), snow management activities, infiltration devices, 
and wet detention/retention devices.
    (4) Comprehensive Site Compliance Evaluation. Qualified personnel 
shall conduct site compliance evaluations at appropriate intervals 
specified in the plan, but in no case less than once a year. Such 
evaluations shall provide:
    (a) Areas contributing to a storm water discharge associated with 
industrial activity shall be visually inspected for evidence of, or the 
potential for, pollutants entering the drainage system. Measures to 
reduce pollutant loadings shall be evaluated to determine whether they 
are adequate and properly implemented in accordance with the terms of 
the permit or whether additional control measures are needed. 
Structural storm water management measures, sediment and erosion 
control measures, and other structural pollution prevention measures 
identified in the plan shall be observed to ensure that they are 
operating correctly. A visual inspection of equipment needed to 
implement the plan, such as spill response equipment, shall be made.
    (b) Based on the results of the evaluation, the description of 
potential pollutant sources identified in the plan in accordance with 
paragraph XI.AD.3.a.(2) of this section (Description of Potential 
Pollutant Sources) and pollution prevention measures and controls 
identified in the plan in accordance with paragraph XI.AD.3.a.(3) of 
this section (Measures and Controls) shall be revised as appropriate 
within 2 weeks of such evaluation and shall provide for implementation 
of any changes to the plan in a timely manner, but in no case more than 
12 weeks after the evaluation.
    (c) A report summarizing the scope of the inspection, personnel 
making the evaluation, the date(s) of the evaluation, major 
observations relating to the implementation of the storm water 
pollution prevention plan, and actions taken in accordance with 
paragraph XI.AD.3.a.(4)(b) (above) of the permit shall be made and 
retained as part of the storm water pollution prevention plan for at 
least 3 years from the date of the evaluation. The report shall 
identify any incidents of noncompliance. Where a report does not 
identify any incidents of noncompliance, the report shall contain a 
certification that the facility is in compliance with the storm water 
pollution prevention plan and this permit. The report shall be signed 
in accordance with Part VII.G. (Signatory Requirements) of this permit.
    (d) Where compliance evaluation schedules overlap with inspections 
required under 3.a.(3)(d), the compliance evaluation may be conducted 
in place of one such inspection.
    4. Numeric Effluent Limitations. There are no additional numeric 
effluent limitations beyond those described in Part V.B of this permit.
    5. Monitoring and Reporting Requirements.
    (a) Monitoring Requirements
    (1) Quarterly Visual Examination of Storm Water Quality. Facilities 
shall perform and document a visual examination of a storm water 
discharge associated with industrial activity from each outfall, except 
discharges exempted below. The examination must be made at least once 
in each designated

[[Page 52490]]

period [described in (a), below] during daylight hours unless there is 
insufficient rainfall or snow melt to produce a runoff event.
    (a) Examinations shall be conducted in each of the following 
periods for the purposes of visually inspecting storm water quality 
associated with storm water runoff or snow melt: January through March; 
April through June; July through September; and October through 
December.
    (b) Examinations shall be made of samples collected within the 
first 30 minutes (or as soon thereafter as practical, but not to exceed 
one hour) of when the runoff or snowmelt begins discharging. The 
examinations shall document observations of color, odor, clarity, 
floating solids, settled solids, suspended solids, foam, oil sheen, and 
other obvious indicators of storm water pollution. The examination must 
be conducted in a well lit area. No analytical tests are required to be 
performed on the samples. All such samples shall be collected from the 
discharge resulting from a storm event that is greater than 0.1 inches 
in magnitude and that occurs at least 72 hours from the previously 
measurable (greater than 0.1 inch rainfall) storm event. Whenever 
practicable the same individual will carry out the collection and 
examination of discharges for the life of the permit.
    (c) Visual examination reports must be maintained onsite in the 
pollution prevention plan. The report shall include the examination 
date and time, examination personnel, the nature of the discharge 
(i.e., runoff or snow melt), visual quality of the storm water 
discharge (including observations of color, odor, clarity, floating 
solids, settled solids, suspended solids, foam, oil sheen, and other 
obvious indicators of storm water pollution), and probable sources of 
any observed storm water contamination.
    (d) When a facility has two or more outfalls that, based on a 
consideration of industrial activity, significant materials, and 
management practices and activities within the area drained by the 
outfall, the permittee reasonably believes discharge substantially 
identical effluents, the permittee may collect a sample of effluent of 
one of such outfalls and report that the observation data also applies 
to the substantially identical outfalls provided that the permittee 
includes in the storm water pollution prevention plan a description of 
the location of the outfalls and explaining in detail why the outfalls 
are expected to discharge substantially identical effluents. In 
addition, for each outfall that the permittee believes is 
representative, an estimate of the size of the drainage area (in square 
feet) and an estimate of the runoff coefficient of the drainage area 
[e.g., low (under 40 percent), medium (40 to 65 percent), or high 
(above 65 percent)] shall be provided in the plan.
    (e) When a discharger is unable to collect samples over the course 
of the monitoring period as a result of adverse climatic conditions, 
the discharger must document the reason for not performing the visual 
examination and retain this documentation onsite with the records of 
the visual examination. Adverse weather conditions which may prohibit 
the collection of samples include weather conditions that create 
dangerous conditions for personnel (such as local flooding, high winds, 
hurricane, tornadoes, electrical storms, etc.) or otherwise make the 
collection of a sample impracticable (drought, extended frozen 
conditions, etc.).
    (f) When a discharger is unable to conduct visual storm water 
examinations at an inactive and unstaffed site, the operator of the 
facility may exercise a waiver of the monitoring requirement as long as 
the facility remains inactive and unstaffed. The facility must maintain 
a certification with the pollution prevention plan stating that the 
site is inactive and unstaffed so that performing visual examinations 
during a qualifying event is not feasible.

Addendum H--Endangered Species Guidance

I. Instructions

    Found below in Part II of this Addendum is a list of species that 
EPA has determined may be affected by the activities covered by the 
Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP). These species are listed by county. 
In order to get MSGP coverage, applicants must:
     Indicate in box provided on the NOI whether any species 
listed in this Addendum are in proximity to the facility, and
     Certify pursuant to Section II.B.12 of the MSGP that their 
storm water discharges, and Best Management Practices (BMPs) 
constructed to control storm water runoff, are not likely, and will not 
be likely to adversely affect species identified in Addendum H of this 
permit.
    To do this, please follow steps 1 through 4 below.
Step 1: Review the County Species List To Determine if Any Species Are 
Located in the Discharging Facility County
    If no species are listed in a facility's county or if a facility's 
county is not found on the list, an applicant is eligible for MSGP 
coverage and may indicate in the NOI that no species are found in 
proximity and provide the necessary certification. If species are 
located in the county, follow step 2 below. Where a facility is located 
in more than one county, the lists for all counties should be reviewed.
    The enclosed list is current as of July 8, 1998. Applicants 
applying for permit coverage after October 8, 1998, must also make 
reasonable inquiries to determine whether new species have been listed 
for their county(ies). Such information may be available from the 
following sources: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service or National Marine 
Fisheries Service offices; EPA's Office of Wastewater Management's web 
page at ``http://www.epa.gov/owm'' where updates of the county-by-
county list will be posted on a periodic basis; Federal Register 
notices; State wildlife protection offices; or a biologist or similar 
professional in the environmental field. Applicants may also call the 
following EPA Regional Offices: Region 1 (Boston) 617-565-3569; Region

Step 2: Determine if Any Species May Be Found ``In Proximity'' to the 
Facility
    A species is in proximity to a facility's storm water discharge 
when the species is:
     Located in the path or immediate area through which or 
over which contaminated point source storm water flows from industrial 
activities to the point of discharge into the receiving water.
     Located in the immediate vicinity of, or nearby, the point 
of discharge into receiving waters.
     Located in the area of a site where storm water BMPs are 
planned or are to be constructed.
    The area in proximity to be searched/surveyed for listed species 
will vary with the size of the facility, the nature and quantity of the 
storm water discharges, and the type of receiving waters. Given the 
number of facilities potentially covered by the MSGP, no specific 
method to determine whether species are in proximity is required for 
permit coverage under the MSGP. Instead, applicants should use the 
method or methods which best allow them to determine to the best of 
their knowledge whether species are in proximity to their particular 
facility. These methods may include:
     Conducting visual inspections. This method may be 
particularly suitable for facilities that are smaller in size, 
facilities located in non-natural settings such as highly urbanized 
areas or industrial parks where there is little or no nature habitat; 
and facilities that discharge directly into municipal storm water 
collection systems. For other facilities, a visual survey of the 
facility site and storm water drainage areas may be insufficient to 
determine whether species are likely to be located in proximity to the 
discharge.
     Contacting the nearest State Wildlife Agency or U.S. Fish 
and Wildlife Service (FWS) or National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) 
offices. Many endangered and threatened species are found in well-
defined areas or habitats. That information is frequently known to 
state or federal wildlife agencies. FWS has offices in every state. 
NMFS has regional offices in: Gloucester, Massachusetts; St. 
Petersburg, Florida; Long Beach, California; Portland, Oregon; and 
Juneau, Alaska.
     Contacting local/regional conservation groups. These 
groups inventory species and their locations and maintain lists of 
sightings and habitats.
     Conducting a formal biological survey. Larger facilities 
with extensive storm water discharges may choose to conduct biological 
surveys as the most effective way to assess whether species are located 
in proximity and whether there are likely adverse effects.
    If no species are in proximity, an applicant is eligible for MSGP 
coverage and may indicate that in the NOI and provide the necessary 
certification. If listed species are found in proximity to a facility, 
applicants must follow step 3 below.
Step 3: Determine If Species Could Be Adversely Affected by the 
Facility's Storm Water Discharges or by BMP's To Control Those 
Discharges
    Scope of Adverse Effects. Potential adverse effects from storm 
water include:
     Hydrological. Storm water may cause siltation, 
sedimentation or induce other changes in the receiving waters such as 
temperature, salinity or pH. These effects will vary with the amount of 
storm water discharged and the volume and condition of the receiving 
water. Where a storm water discharge constitutes a minute portion of 
the total volume of the receiving water, adverse hydrological effects 
are less likely.
     Habitat. Storm water may drain or inundate listed species 
habitat.
     Toxicity. In some cases, pollutants in storm water may 
have toxic effects on listed species.
    The scope of effects to consider will vary with each site. 
Applicants must also consider the likelihood of adverse effects on 
species from any BMPs to control storm water. Most adverse impacts from 
BMPs are likely to occur from the construction activities.
    Using earlier ESA authorizations for MSGP eligibility. In some 
cases, a facility may be eligible for MSGP coverage because actual or 
potential adverse affects were addressed or discounted through an 
earlier ESA authorization. Examples of such authorization include:
     An earlier ESA section 7 consultation for that facility.
     A section 10(a) permit issued for the facility.
     An area-wide Habitat Conservation Plan applicable to that 
facility.
     A clearance letter from the Services (which discounts the 
possibility of an adverse impact from the facility).
    In order for applicants to use an earlier ESA authorization to meet 
eligibility requirements: (1) the authorization must adequately address 
impacts for storm water discharges and BMPs from the facility on 
endangered and threatened species, (2) it must be current because there 
have been no subsequent changes in facility

[[Page 52494]]

operations or circumstances which might impact species in ways not 
considered in the earlier authorization, and (3) the applicant must 
comply with any requirements from those authorizations to avoid or 
mitigate adverse effects to species. Applicants who wish to pursue this 
approach should carefully review documentation for those authorizations 
to ensure that the above conditions are met.
    If adverse effects are not likely, an applicant is eligible for 
MSGP coverage and may indicate in the NOI that species are found in 
proximity and provide the necessary certification. If adverse effects 
are likely, follow step 4 below.
Step 4: Determine If Measures Can Be Implemented To Avoid Any Adverse 
Effects
    If an applicant determines that adverse effects are likely, it can 
receive coverage if appropriate measures are undertaken to avoid or 
eliminate any actual or potential adverse effects prior to applying for 
permit coverage. These measures may involve relatively simple changes 
to facility operations such as re-routing a storm water discharge to 
bypass an area where species are located.
    At this stage, applicants may wish to contact the FWS and/or NMFS 
to see what appropriate measures might be suitable to avoid or 
eliminate adverse impacts to species.
    If applicants adopt these measures, they must continue to abide by 
them during the course of permit coverage.
    If appropriate measures are not available, the applicant is not 
eligible at that time for coverage under the MSGP. Applicants should 
contact the appropriate EPA regional office about either:
     Entering into Section 7 consultation in order to obtain 
MSGP coverage, or
     Obtaining an individual NPDES storm water permit.

Note: Species listed above with a status of both E and T are generally either endangered or threatened within
  the specified county. The assignment of two status designations for a species in a specific county is a
  function of the data set used to develop this list. For purposes of this permit, however, the obligation to
  assess the impact of storm water discharges on listed species does not vary based on which of the two statuses
  (e.g., endangered threatened) is assigned (see Addendum A Instructions).

IX. Addition of Addendum I--Historic Properties Guidance

    Addendum I is added to provide guidance to help applicants 
determine their permit eligibility regarding the protection of historic 
properties or places under Part I.B.6 of this permit.

Addendum I--Historic Properties Guidance

    This addendum provides guidance to help applicants determine their 
permit eligibility regarding the protection of historic properties or 
places under Part I.B.6 of this permit. In order to do this, applicants 
must determine whether their facility's industrial storm water 
discharge, or construction of best management practices (BMPs) to 
control such discharge, has potential to affect a property that is 
either listed or eligible for listing on the National Register of 
Historic Places.
    For existing dischargers who do not need to construct BMPs for 
permit coverage, a simple visual inspection may be sufficient to 
determine whether historic properties are affected. However, for 
facilities which are new industrial storm water dischargers and for 
existing facilities which are planning to construct BMPs for permit 
eligibility, applicants should conduct further inquiry to determine 
whether historic properties may be affected by the storm water 
discharge or BMPs to control the discharge. In such instances, 
applicants should first determine whether there are any historic 
properties or places listed on the National Register or if any are 
eligible for listing on the register (e.g., they are ``eligible for 
listing''). Due to the large number of entities seeking coverage under 
this permit and the limited number of personnel available to State and 
Tribal Historic Preservation Officers nationwide to respond to 
inquiries concerning the location of historic properties, EPA suggests 
that applicants to first access the ``National Register of Historic 
Places'' information listed on the National Park Service's web page 
(see Part I of this addendum). Addresses for State Historic 
Preservation Officers and Tribal Historic Preservation Officers are 
listed in Parts II and III of this addendum, respectively. In instances 
where a Tribe does not have a Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, 
applicants should contact the appropriate Tribal government office when 
responding to this permit eligibility condition. Applicants may also 
contact city, county or other local historical societies for 
assistance, especially when determining if a place or property is 
eligible for listing on the register.
    The following three scenarios describe how applicants can meet the 
permit eligibility criteria for protection of historic properties under 
this permit:
    (1) If historic properties are not identified in the path of a 
facility's industrial storm water discharge or where construction 
activities are planned to install BMPs to control such discharges 
(e.g., diversion channels or retention ponds), then the applicant has 
met the permit eligibility criteria under Part I.B.6.
    (2) If historic properties are identified but it is determined that 
they will not be affected by the discharge or

[[Page 52571]]

construction of BMPs to control the discharge, the applicant has met 
the permit eligibility criteria under Part I.B.6(i).
    (3) If historic properties are identified in the path of a 
facility's industrial storm water discharge or where construction 
activities are planned to install BMPs to control such discharges, and 
it is determined that there is the potential to adversely affect the 
property, the applicant can still meet the permit eligibility criteria 
under Part I.B.6(ii) if he/she obtains and complies with a written 
agreement with the appropriate State or Tribal Historic Preservation 
Officer which outlines measures the applicant will follow to mitigate 
or prevent those adverse effects. The contents of such a written 
agreement must be included in the facility's storm water pollution 
prevention plan. In situations where an agreement cannot be reached 
between an applicant and the State or Tribal Historic Preservation 
Officer, applicants should contact the Advisory Council on Historic 
Preservation listed in Part IV of this addendum for assistance. The 
term ``adverse effects'' includes but is not limited to damage, 
deterioration, alteration or destruction of the historic property or 
place. EPA encourages applicants to contact the appropriate State or 
Tribal Historic Preservation Officer as soon as possible in the event 
of a potential adverse effect to a historic property.
    Applicants are reminded that they must comply with applicable 
State, Tribal and local laws concerning the protection of historic 
properties and places.
