A publication of the Bill Gladstone Group of NAI CIR January 2013 Preparing for the Storm: Understanding Pennsylvania’s Stormwater Regulations on Land Development T By Mark W. Heeb, ASLA, Principal and Senior Project Manager with BL Companies Thinking about purchasing land for development purposes? If so, you may want to pay close attention to recent changes in regulations affecting the design, inspection, maintenance and legal encumbrances related to stormwater discharge and facilities. When performing due diligence investigations on a site’s development potential, developers now need to consider regulations impacting overall development area and costs associated with the design, construction and time to complete a project. management facilities. It is important to understand the impact of these regulations on the land development community. Why the word of caution? On November 19, 2010, Pennsylvania adopted new regulations that impact land development. These new rules, found in Pennsylvania Code Title 25, Chapter 102, build upon the current permit requirements related to Erosion and Sediment Control permits required for earth disturbance activities and the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System permit required for permanent stormwater Implemented in 1972, E&S regulations control earth disturbance activities for agricultural and non-agricultural projects. For the land development community, these regulations apply to work during the construction phase of a project. Prior to performing demolition, clearing/grubbing and bulk earth excavation, an owner or developer must design, permit and implement methods to insure that erosion of soil and contamination Background To understand these regulations, it is helpful to step back and look at the genesis of the regulations and how they evolved to the current form. Pennsylvania Erosion and Sedimentation Controls (E&S) of Pennsylvania’s waterways does not occur. The design must show protection measures called Best Management Practices (BMP’s) that are put in place before any work begins. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) In 1990, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) created federal NPDES regulations for stormwater discharges under the Clean Water Act. Implemented in Pennsylvania in 1992, these regulations established the federal Phase I NPDES stormwater discharge program which required a permit for projects disturbing five or more acres of land. The regulations under Pennsylvania Code Title 25 that govern the NPDES regulations are as follows: Chapter 92a- Use of Individual and General NPDES Permits, Chapter 93Water Quality Standards, Chapter 102 Erosion and Sediment Control Plans and (Continued on page 3) NEW LISTING In This Issue 1,3,5 Featured Article 1-2, 4-7 Featured Listings 7 Seeking Authors 8 Recent Deals 717.761.5070 ext. 120 www.BillGladstone.com [email protected] pCOMMERCIAL SALE – 322 S.

Review and oversight of the E&S and NPDES permits were delegated to Pennsylvania County Conservation Districts (CCD) by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP). There are two types of NPDES permits, General and Individual. For General NPDES permits, CCD’s process and authorize the permit coverage, conduct site inspections, respond to complaints, and conduct enforcement actions. If a project is located in a watershed designated as Value. The documents consist of a plan and narrative conforming to Chapter 102 requirements. While not required to be submitted to the CCD for review, both PADEP and CCD can request the plans and supporting documents during construction. For the development community this now means that small projects such as a building expansion now require an E&S plan and narrative to be prepared by an E&S design professional. • The requirements state that existing and proposed riparian forest buffers must be identified on the E&S plan if the project "If a project is located in a watershed designated as Exceptional Value and/or High Quality, an Individual NPDES permit is required." Exceptional Value and/or High Quality, an Individual NPDES permit is required. In that case, the E&S permit is reviewed by the CCD and the NPDES permit is reviewed by PADEP. The CCD staff review E&S and General NPDES permit applications, plans and calculations prepared by a certified plan preparer who is typically a licensed civil engineer or landscape architect. Review by the CCD is performed in two steps; an administrative completeness review and a technical review. When both are complete, a letter and permit is issued to the owner/developer, stating that the plans and calculations conform to the PADEP Erosion and Sediment Pollution Control Program Manual requirements and that construction activities can commence. Changes in the 2010 Erosion and Sediment Control/National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Permit Requirements Below, the primary changes to the regulations as well as the impact to time and cost are identified and summarized. Erosion and Sediment Control Requirements • An E&S plan is now required when earth disturbance is more than 5,000 square feet and/or may discharge into a watershed classified as High Quality or Exceptional site is located in a High Quality/Exceptional value watershed. A riparian forest buffer is defined as an area of permanent vegetation consisting of native trees, shrubs, and plants along surface waters that protect water quality and stabilize stream channels. This requirement will necessitate additional topographic and tree surveys to identify and locate the extent of the existing riparian forest buffers. A further explanation of riparian buffer requirements is found below. National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Permit • The new regulations incorporate the EPA NPDES Phase II regulations requiring a NPDES permit for stormwater discharge, from the former requirement of needing a permit for earth disturbance between 1-5 acres with a point source discharge (concentrated discharge into a stormwater structure), to requiring a NPDES permit for any type of stormwater discharge associated with an earth disturbance of 1 acre or more. If the project drains to a watershed designated as High Quality or Exceptional Value, an Individual NPDES permit will be required. This means that smaller projects with as little as 1 acre of disturbance and sheet flow discharge will require a full NPDES permit and the associated time for design and approval. (Continued from page 1) Permit Fees • General permits fee changed to $500 administrative filing fee plus $100 for each disturbed acre of land. • Individual permits fee changed to $1,500 administrative filing fee plus $100 for each disturbed acre of land. • In addition, CCD’s may charge additional fees for review and permit. Prior to construction, a preconstruction meeting with the licensed design professional who designed the E&S and the PCSM plan, CCD representative, and the contractor is required. The developer/owner must now hire the licensed design professional to attend meetings and provide construction administration. Post Construction Stormwater Management Plan: • A separate PCSM plan and narrative must be created as part of the permit application. The E&S plans and PCSM plan shall be complementary but separate. This requires the owner/developer’s consultant to spend additional time creating separate plans that are submitted to the CCD or the PADEP for review and approval. • The licensed design professional must have oversight of the critical stages of the stormwater management system construction and must certify that the stormwater management system was constructed as shown on the plans. The owner/developer will need to hire the licensed design professional to perform site observations and work with the contractor to insure the system is installed as designed. • The property owner must record an instrument with the recorder of deeds which will assure disclosure of the PCSM plans and the related obligations in the ordinary course of a title search of the subject property. The recorded instrument must identify the PCSM design, provide for necessary access related to long-term operation and maintenance for PCSM BMPs and provide notice that the responsibility for long-term operation and maintenance of the PCSM BMPs is a covenant that runs with the land that is binding upon and enforceable by subsequent grantees, and provide proof of filing when terminating the permit upon (Continued on page 5) View Available Properties At www.billgladstone.com 3 C O M M E R C I A L L I STIN GS Rendering pLEASE - 100 2nd Street, Enola 1,088 SF turn-key pizza shop directly off Route 11/15 in Enola.

This means the owner/developer should hire an attorney, create the appropriate documents, and file at the County Courthouse. This also means that the instrument will be an encumbrance on the land when offered for sale. Riparian Buffer Requirements • If the project site is located in an Exceptional Value or High Quality watershed and requires an E&S and/or NPDES permit, earth disturbance activities may not occur within 150 feet of a perennial or intermittent river, stream, or creek, or lake, pond or reservoir. This means that the land immediately adjacent to these water bodies must be protected and cannot be utilized for development. This has the potential to reduce the amount of land that can be developed for a project. • If the project site is located in an Exceptional Value or High Quality watershed where the water is identified as impaired on Pennsylvania’s Integrated Water Quality Monitoring and Assessment Report, a riparian forest buffer plan must be prepared and submitted as part of the PCSM plan to PADEP for review and approval. This requirement will require the owner/developer to engage a licensed landscape architect to prepare a plan consisting of an existing conditions plan, planting plan, maintenance schedule and inspection schedule. The plan will be reviewed and approved by PADEP. The required planting and maintenance will increase design, construction and long-term maintenance costs. The above summary touches on the main points of the Chapter 102 regulations and their impact on the land development community. As with most government initiatives, the complete regulations are complex and require additional knowledge to fully evaluate how they may impact a project site. When selecting land for development, it is essential to take the time to analyze and understand the existing watershed designation, possible stormwater management solutions, involvement of the design professional in construction administration and legal requirements associated with the operation of stormwater facilities. Knowing these regulations will help owners, developers and other members of the land development community understand project viability in terms of time, process and money.
