75. MM VII-1: The following BMPs shall be incorporated into the project: �
• Roof Downspout Svstem. Direct roof drains to pervious areas to allow
- infiltration prior to discharging to water bodies or the municipal storm drain
system.
• Run-off Control. Maintain post-development peak runoff rate and average
volume of runoff at levels that are similar to pre-development levels.
• Labelinq and Maintenance of Storm Drain Facilities. Label new storm
drain inlets with "No Dumping — Drains to Ocean" to alert the public to the �
destination of stormwater and to prevent direct discharge of pollutants into
the storm drain.
• Vehicle/Equipment Cleaninq. Commercial/industrial facilities or multi-
family residential developments of 50 units or greater should either
provide a covered, bermed area for washing activities or discourage
vehicle/equipment washing by removing hose bibs and installing signs
. prohibiting such uses. Vehicle/equipment washing areas shall be paved
designed to prevent run-on or run off from the area, and plumbed to drain
to the sanitary sewer.
e Car WashinQ. Commercial car wash facilities shall be designed and
operated such that no runoff frorri the facility is discharged to the storm
drain system. Wastewater from the facility shall discharge to the sanitary
sewer or wastewater reclamation system.
• Common Area Litter Control. Implement trash management and litter
. control for commercial and industrial projects or large-scale residential
developments, to prevent litter and debris from being carried to water
bodies or the storm drain system.
• Food Service Facilities. Design food service facilities (including
restaurants and grocery stores) to have a sink or other area for cleaning
floor mats, containers, and equipments that is connected to a grease
interceptor prior to discharging to the sanitary sewer system. The
cleaning area should be large enough to clean the largest mat or piece of
equipment to be cleaned. --

• Refuse Areas. Trash compactors, enclosures and dumpster areas should
be covered and protected from roof and surface drainage. Install a self-
contained drainage system that discharges to the sanitary sewer if water
cannot be diverted from the areas.
• Outdoor Storaqe Controls. Oils, fuels, solvents, coolants, and other
chemicals stored outdoors must be in containers and protected from
drainage by secondary containment structures such as berms, liners,
vaults or roof covers and/or drain to the sanitary sewer system. Bulk
materials stored outdoors must also be protected from drainage with
berms and covers. Process equipment stored outdoors must be
inspected for proper function and leaks, sfored on impermeable surfaces
and covered. Implement a regular program of sweeping and litter control
and develop a spill cleanup plan for storage areas.
• Cleaning, Maintenance and Processinq Controls. Areas used for
washing, steam cleaning, maintenance, repair or processing must have
impermeable surfaces and containment berms, roof covers, recycled
water wash facility, and discharge to the sanitary sewer. Discharges to
the sanitary sewer may require pretreatment systems and/or approval of
- an industrial waste discharge permit.
• Loadinq Dock Controls. Design loading docks to be covered, surrounded
by berms or curbs, or constructed to prevent drainage onto or from the
area. Position roof downspouts to direct stormwater away from the loading
area. Water from loading dock areas shall be drained to the sanitary
sewer, or diverted and collected for ultimate discharge to the sanitary
sewer. Door skirts between the trailers and the building should be
installed to prevent exposure of loading activities to rain.
• Street/ParkinQ Lot Sweeping: Implement a program to regularly sweep
streets, sidewalks and parking lots to prevent the accumulation of litter
. and debris. Debris resulting from pressure washing should be trapped
and collected to prevent entry into the storm drairi system. Washwater
containing any cleaning agent or degreaser should be collected and
discharged to the sanitary sewer.

77. MM XII-2: Construction plans for any store located along the rear of Subarea 3
shall include a noise barrier, either a block wall or an extension of the store
building, to be not less than twelve (12) feet above the delivery area, tapering to
a height of six (6) at the eastern property line (back of sidewalk) at a 1:1 ratio.
, Additionally, any residential structures that, absent the noise barrier, would have
a direct line of sight to the delivery area shall include acoustical treatment to
reduce exterior noise levels by thirty (30) decibels, the cost of which shall be
borne by the developer of the store. �
