Storm Water Pollution Prevention

CDIM is assisting a San Francisco Bay marine terminal with ongoing compliance with California’s Industrial General Permit (IGP) for storm water discharges. In this role, CDIM is responsible for developing the clients Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan, collecting storm water samples, using results to evaluate the effectiveness of Best Management Practices (BMPs), and submitting reports to the regional and state Water Boards.

CDIM also assists with design and operation of water treatment systems that meet with Clean Water Act BAT/BCT guidelines and IGP criteria for storm water treatment control BMPs. The treatment systems consist of inlets, sand interceptors, pumps and pipes for collection, conveyance to a settling tank for biopolymer flocculation, flow equalization, sand filtration, and then direct discharge. See presentation here prepared by CDIM Principal.

Project Highlights:

  • Reducing client’s compliance risk

  • Innovative water quality engineering

  • High quality data generation
