Contact Phone Number Joni - 320-308-6158 Don - 320-308-1542

Facility Characteristics Area of land that drains into MS4 32 acres Water in U.S. that receives storm water from St. Cloud Technical College through the City of St. Cloud MS4

Mississippi River

St. Cloud Technical & Community College’s MS4 discharges directly into the City of St. Cloud MS4. Storm water originating at St. Cloud Technical & Community College flows underground where it connects into the cities MS4. Approximately 70% of the area at St. Cloud Technical & Community College consists of impervious surfaces which empty into the storm drain system. St. Cloud Technical & Community College’s MS4 consists of curbs, gutters and parking lot drains, with catch basins that are connected underground. All storm water originating on the property is discharged into the cities MS4 before it leaves the property line of St. Cloud Technical & Community College. There are three connections where SCTCC’s storm water enters the cities MS4. Once the storm water enters our storm drains we do not have access to it until it discharges from the City of St. Cloud’s MS4.

*BMP Description:

This Best Management Practice (BMP) is required for inspection of minimum 20 percent of MS4 Outfalls each year on the rotating basis, so that all are inspected over the entire permit period (5 years).


*Measurable Goals:

*BMP Title: Annual Inspection of All Exposed Stockpile, Storage and Material Handling Areas

*BMP Description:

This BMP requires all stockpiles such as salt, lumber, parts to be inspected annually. Some temporary stockpiles such as topsoil from construction activity would not be inspected under this requirement but would be required to be inspected in accordance with construction permits ordinances or policy. Stockpiles such as salt which are used only seasonally but are used each year are not temporary stockpiles and would be required to be inspected under this requirement. As with all inspections, if patterns of maintenance become apparent, the frequency of inspections should be adjusted. Inspections will be according to MS4 Inspection and recordkeeping requirements:


*Measurable Goals:

• Sites identified for areas of all exposed Stockpile, Storage and Material Handling Areas • Number of inspections of all exposed Stockpile, Storage and Material Handling Areas • Number of exposed stockpiles deleted from outside storage.

Keep records of inspection results, date, antecedent weather conditions, sediment storage and capacity remaining, and any maintenance performed or recommended. Since St. Cloud Technical & Community College drains directly into the City of St. Cloud’s MS4 we have no way to inspect our outfalls and can only tell you if they are operating or not.

*BMP Title: Evaluation of Inspection Frequency

*BMP Description:

St. Cloud Technical & Community College will keep records of inspection results, date, antecedent weather conditions and any maintenance performed or recommended. After two years of inspections, if patterns of maintenance become apparent, the frequency of inspections may be adjusted. If maintenance is required because of each of the first two annual inspections, the frequency of inspections may be adjusted. If maintenance is required after each of the first two annual inspections, the frequency of inspection shall be increased to at least two (2) times annually or more frequently as needed to prevent carry-over or washout of pollutants from the structures and maximize pollutant removal. If maintenance or sediment removal is not required because of both of the first two annual inspections, the frequency may be reduced to once every two years.


*Measurable Goals:

• The number of inspections per year • Inspection results with date, antecedent weather conditions • Any maintenance performed or recommended


1 year • Establish procedure for annual inspections

3-5 Years • Implement annual inspections • Evaluation of the inspection frequency and adjustment according to the results.

No archaeological sites were identified in a search of the Minnesota Archaeological Inventory and Historic Structures Inventory for the search area requested. A report containing the historic properties identified is attached. The result of this database search provides a listing of recorded historic architectural properties that are included in the current SHPO databases. Because the majority of archaeological sites in the state and many historic architectural properties have not been recorded, important sites or structures may exist within the search area and may be affected by development projects within that area. Additional research, including field survey, may be necessary to adequately assess the area's potential to contain historic properties. With regard to Environmental Assessment Worksheets (EAW), a negative known site/structure response from the SHPO databases is not necessarily appropriate information on which to base a "No" response to EAW Question 25a. It is the Responsible Governmental Unit's (RGU) obligation to verify the accuracy of the information contained within the EAW. A "No" response to Question 25a without written justification should be carefully considered. If you require a comprehensive assessment of a project's potential to impact archaeological sites or historic architectural properties, you may need to hire a qualified archaeologist and/or historian.
