Dear Contractor:
In
July of 2016, the Village of Whitehouse was notified by Ohio Environmental Protection
Agency (OEPA) of the need to obtain National Pollution Elimination System (NPDES) general
permit coverage for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) as an urbanized area.
While the Village is in the process of obtaining coverage which will regulate storm water
discharges under the purview of the Clean Water Act, we would like to make you aware of
several changes which
you are presently required to comply with.
The Village of Whitehouse requirements for erosion and sediment control for small construction
sites are as follows:
1.
Existing vegetation shall be retained on idle portions of the building lot for as long as
construction operations allow. Clearing shall be done for active working areas only.
2.
Temporary seed (annual rye, oats, etc.) and/or mulch shall be applied to areas, such as
stockpiles, that are bare and not actively worked. This shall apply to areas that will not be
reworked for 14 days or more.
3.
Stockpiles excavated from basements shall be situated away from streets, swales and/or
waterways and shall be seeded or mulched as per item 2 above.
4.
Silt fence and/or wattles shall be provided and maintained in workable condition to
control and filter sheet flow runoff from the building lot.
It
shall not be constructed in
channels or areas of concentrated flow. Other sediment controls such as inlet protection
and sediment traps shall also be used and maintained as needed at the direction of the
inspector to control sediment runoff.
5.
Construction vehicle access to a lot shall be limited to one temporary access drive
consisting of gravel or crushed rock and shall be maintained in an acceptable condition.
6.
Mud tracked onto the street or sediment settled around curb inlet protection shall be
inspected for and removed daily or as needed to prevent accumulation. Accumulated
material shall be removed by mechanical means (i.e. shoveling, scraping, sweeping) and
shall not be washed off pavement or into storm drains.

7.
A dumpster for construction debris shall be onsite prior to commencement of
construction. All construction site debris shall be placed in the dumpster at the end of
every work day. The inspector may require a cover to ensure the items placed in the
dumpster remain.
8.
Onsite portable restroom facilities shall be required for each individual lot.
9.
The haul route utilized to the site shall be the safest and shortest route possible. All non-
weight restricted roads shall be utilized prior to utilizing weight restricted roads.
10.
Hauling of excavated or fill material shall be required to comply with Ohio General
Permit OHC000004.
As a Contractor for residential new construction, the Village of Whitehouse requires a letter from
the Developer of the subdivided property, stating the Developer is the Operator and the
responsible party for the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) for the sub-division
prior to requesting zoning approvals. The letter shall state that you, the contractor and your
subcontractors, are aware of the requirements of the SWP3 for the subdivision and the
requirements for the individual lot.
A site plan shall also be submitted showing the required Best Management Practices (BMPs) for
the individual lot. Required items specifically addressed shall be:
Location of excavation
Location of spoil pile
Location of dumpster
Location of stone/gravel entrance/exit drive, one per lot
Location of onsite concrete wash area with silt fence
Location of any curb drains/storm water drainage structures on the lot
Location of restroom/portable toilet
Direction of surface flow storm water off the building site and the body of water in which
it drains
Upon review of the site plan, the inspector may require additional control measures be
established and maintained for the individual lot such as silt screen and/or wattles.
If the Developer is no longer the Operator for the SWP3 the Contractor will be required to file
for Individual Lot Notice of Intent (NOI) coverage through OEPA for Stormwater. Proof of
obtaining coverage, or that coverage is presently in place, will be required prior to construction
activity. NOI forms can be obtained at epa.ohio.gov/portals/35/storm/ILOT instructions.pdf.

SWP3 and have the plan available on the job site for review upon request. Guidance for the
development of your individual lot SWP3 can be found at epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015-

All BMPs required items in the individual lot site plan shall be in place and operational prior to
commencement of construction activities. Any items found to be out of compliance will require
immediate con-ection. Refusal to comply with Village of Whitehouse erosion and sediment
control requirements may result in fine(s) being imposed and/or "Stop Work" orders for
the individual lot construction sites.
Additional information on compliance can be found at epa.ohio.gov/dsw/ston-n/technical
