Summary of the DEQ 1200 C permit by David Bellemore

permit.

its rules should be included in the discussion and the rules that are
developed should be carried over to post construction phase.

Rough draft of code for new developments by Lee Riechel and John
Stead
Lee Riechel presented the Workgroup with a document regarding
proposed requirements and standards for development requiring a State of
Oregon DEQ 1200C permit. The
document was as follows:
155.3.5.1.3
Requirements and Standards for Development Requiring State of Oregon DEQ
1200 C permits.
The
City of Dunes City holds that DEQ 1200C is the acceptable process for
stormwater management in Dunes City for land use applications requiring
the DEQ 1200 C process.
In
addition to this section, 155.3.5.1, the City shall approve land use
applications only after the requirements, standards, and processes of
this title have been met.
The
City of dunes City will require DEQ 1200C permit data and additional
data identified below before any land use application is accepted.
Required documentation:
A
1200C permit approved by DEQ.
Copies
of all documentation submitted with and during the 1200C process. As an
example, this documentation shall include, but not be limited to the
ESCP, any Action Plans that may occur, the Plot Plan showing the
location of all impervious surfaces and control facility locations, and
design compliance documentation for the processing of 3.1 inches of
rainfall in a 6-hour period.
All
BMP's used for this use application that are not contained in the 1200C
permit application.
Other requirements:
Alert
the City whenever a 1200C inspection occurs with the expectation that a
City representative may be present.
The
requirements of Dunes City Ordinance Number 193, Erosion and Sediment
Control, apply to all DEQ 1200C lands.
Prior to final approval of the land use application, the applicant shall
provide the City with:
Facility
design data supporting a functional inspection cycle of no less than (to
be determined) years.
The
Plot Plan showing the location of all impervious surfaces and control
facility locations.
A Maintenance Plan, Schedules, and Instructions for all Control
Facilities.
Design
data identifying that each facility design may be accurately inspected
by the property owner or local contractor.
George Burke said the easiest way to bring the Erosion
Control Ordinance and the Stormwater Ordinance together is to indicate
that the facilities need to be built and they need to set the design
standards to handle the 3.1 inches of rainfall in a 6-hour period.
Lee Riechel said the provision is in the DEQ manual.
Lee said it is clear that stormwater management can extend after
the construction period.
Gerald Wasserburg said he thinks the DEQ 1200C is only used
during construction. Gerald
said this is a State and Federal charge and there are differences in the
local codes and issues.
George Burke said the BMP's are in the DEQ manual.
Gerald Wasserburg said they are charged to do stormwater
management control and to unleash all the BMP's on that issue is a big
burden.
David Bellemore said when it comes down to ordinary citizens,
the group should come up with something simpler that is easy to understand
as opposed to the DEQ manual which is understood by professionals.
Larry Lewis said in his experience, when anyone needs to use
a DEQ 1200C permit, it goes directly to the City Engineer.
Gerald Wasserburg said they need to establish a schedule for
inspections.
George Burke said when the system is designed; it can include
the schedule of inspections.
Gerald Wasserburg charged David Bellemore is charged to make
an inspection schedule.
The workgroup discussed the possibility of system development
charges.
Gerald Wasserburg called for a recess at 3:21 p.m.
Gerald Wasserburg reconvened the meeting at 3.28 p.m.
The workgroup scheduled the next meeting for 4/16/10 at 2:00
p.m.

Assignment of tasks
Gerald Wasserburg
charged David Bellemore to come up with the critical BMP's associated with
the DEQ 1200C permit or anything else with regard to stormwater

Gerald Wasserburg
charged Lee Riechel and George Burke to draft the portion of the ordinance
dealing with new residences on one acre or less.
