It
is
acknowledged
in
the
latest
multi­
sector
general
permit
for
storm
water,
issued
on
October
30,
2000,
that
100
mg/
l
as
a
monthly
average
for
TSS
is
a
benchmark
which
should
not
be
exceeded
for
a
storm
water
discharge
if
a
facility
has
a
properly
implemented
storm
water
pollution
prevention
plan
(
SWPPP).
If
Massport
reports
TSS
results
approaching
or
exceeding
100
mg/
l,
Massport
and
the
co­
permittee
tenants
should
evaluate
what
is
causing
such
levels,
review
the
SWPPP
and
revise
it
as
necessary
to
minimize
solids
runoff.

3.
Fecal
coliform
and
enterococcus
monitoring
will
be
conducted
year
round.
This
is
a
State
certification
requirement.
For
Outfall
001B
only,
fecal
coliform
discharges
shall
not
exceed
a
monthly
geometric
mean
of
88
colony
forming
units
(
cfu)
per
100
ml
nor
shall
more
than
10%
of
the
samples
exceed
the
value
of
260
cfu/
100
ml.
There
are
active
shellfish
beds
in
the
vicinity
of
this
outfall
and
these
limits
are
consistent
with
Class
SB
standards
for
receiving
waters
with
active
shellfishing.

The
following
test
methods
shall
be
used:
Method
1664

or
1625
for
semi­
volatile
organic
compounds
and
Method
624,

spectrophotometer
for
additional
identification
and
quantification
of
chlorinated
organic
compounds.
For
VPH,
the
permittee
shall
follow
the
protocol
found
in
"

March.
This
monitoring
shall
be
conducted
during
and/
or
immediately
after
the
application
of
deicing
and/
or
anti­
icing
compounds
by
Massport
and/
or
any
of
its
tenants
in
the
vicinity
of
the
outfall
being
sampled.
For
glycols,
the
test
method
employed
should
be
sufficiently
sensitive
to
quantitate
down
to
10
mg/
l.

6.
An
8
hour
composite
sample
will
consist
of
at
least
eight
(
8)
grab
samples
that
are
taken
at
equal
time
intervals.
A
shorter
duration
composite
would
be
allowed
if
a
full
8
hour
sample
is
not
attainable
due
to
lack
of
flow,
tidal
conditions
or
hazardous
situations.

7.
Wet
weather
samples
shall
be
collected
from
a
discharge
resulting
from
a
storm
event
that
is
greater
than
0.10
inches
in
magnitude
and
that
occurs
at
least
48
hours
from
the
previously
measurable
(
greater
than
0.1
inch
rainfall)
storm
event.
In
order
for
the
"
first
flush"
to
be
collected
from
a
storm
event,
the
first
grab
sample
of
the
wet
weather
composite
should
be
taken
within
the
first
30
minutes
after
the
outfall
discharges,
if
possible.

storm
event.

9.
The
LC
50
is
the
concentration
of
effluent
which
causes
mortality
to
50%
of
the
test
organisms.
For
example,
a
100%
result
means
that
a
sample
of
100%
effluent
(
no
dilution)
did
not
cause
more
than
a
50%
mortality
rate.

Massport
shall
conduct
acute
toxicity
tests
two
times
per
year
for
outfalls
001B

Management
practices
or
equivalent
measures
such
as
implementing
spill
and
overflow
practices
(
e.
g.,
placing
sorptive
materials
beneath
aircraft
during

control
and
countermeasure
(
SPCC)
plant.
Where
a
SPCC
plan
already
exists,
it
may
be
incorporated
into
the
SWPPP
by
reference.

b.
Minimizing
Exposure:
Where
practicable,
protecting
potential
pollutant
sources
from
exposure
to
storm
water
is
an
important
control
option.
Pollutants
that
are
never
allowed
to
contaminate
storm
water
do
not
require
development
of
"
treatment"
type
BMPs.

c.
Preventive
Maintenance:
A
preventive
maintenance
program
shall
involve
timely
and
regular
inspection
and
maintenance
of

equipment
and
systems
to
uncover
conditions
that
could
cause
breakdowns
or
failures
resulting
in
discharges
of
pollutants
to
surface
waters,
and
ensuring
appropriate
maintenance
of
such
equipment
and
systems.
All
BMPs
identified
in
the
SWPPP
must
be
maintained
in
effective
operating
condition.

d.
Spill
Prevention
and
Response
Procedures:
Areas
where
potential
spills
which
can
contribute
pollutants
to
storm
water
discharges
can
occur,
and
their
accompanying
drainage
points
shall
be
identified
clearly
in
the
SWPPP.
The
plan
shall
describe
material
handling
procedures
and
storage
requirements,
and
consider
the
use
of
equipment
such
as
diversion
valves
to
direct
flows
away
from
the
storm
sewer
system.
Procedures
for
cleaning
up
spills
shall
be
identified
in
the
plan
and
made
available
to
all
appropriate
personnel.
The
necessary
equipment
to
implement
a
clean
up
should
be
available
to
personnel.
The
discharge
of
materials
resulting
from
spills
is
prohibited.

anti­
icing
operations
shall
evaluate
present
operating
procedures
to
consider
alternative
practices
to
reduce
the
overall
amount
of
deicing/
anti­
icing
chemicals
used
and/
or
lessen
the
environmental
impact
of
their
discharge.

(

With
regard
to
runway
deicing
operations,
Massport,
at
a
minimum,
shall
evaluate:
present
application
rates
to
ensure
against
excessive
over
application;
metered
application
of
deicing
chemical;
pre­
wetting
dry
chemical
constituents
prior
to
application;
installation
of
runway
ice
detection
systems;
implementing
anti­
icing
operations
as
a
preventive
measure
against

buildup;
the
use
of
substitute
deicing
compounds
such
as
potassium
acetate
in
lieu
of
ethylene
glycol,
propylene
glycol
and/
or
urea.

(

In
considering
source
reduction
management
practices
for
aircraft
deicing
operations,
permittees,
at
a
minimum,
should
evaluate
current
application
rates
and
practices
to
ensure
against
excessive
over
application,
and
consider
pretreating
aircraft
with
hot
water
prior
to
the
application
of
a
deicing
chemical,
thus
reducing
the
overall
amount
of
chemical
used
per
operation.
Source
reduction
measures
that
the
operator
determines
to
be
reasonable
and
appropriate
shall
be
implemented
and
maintained.
The
plan
shall
provide
a
narrative
explanation
of
the
options
considered
and
the
rationale
for
whether
or
not
they
were
implemented.

f.
Management
of
Runoff:
The
plan
shall
contain
a
narrative
consideration
of
the
appropriateness
of
traditional
storm
water
management
practices
(
practices
other
than
those
which
prevent
or
reduce
source(
s)
of
pollutants)
used
to
divert,
infiltrate,
reuse,
or
otherwise
manage
storm
water
runoff
in
a
manner
that
reduces
pollutants
in
storm
water
discharges
from
the
site.
The
potential
of
various
sources
at
the
facility
to
contribute
pollutants
to
storm
water
discharges
associated
with
industrial
activity
shall
be
considered.
Appropriate
measures
or
equivalent
measures
may
include:
vegetative
swales,
reuse
of
collected
storm
water
(
such
as
for
a
process
or
as
an
irrigation
source),
inlet
controls
(

snow
management
activities,
infiltration
devices,
and
wet
detention/
retention
devices.
Measures
that
the
permittees
determines
to
be
reasonable
and
appropriate
shall
be
implemented
and
maintained.

(

Permittees
that
conduct
aircraft
and/
or
runway
deicing/
anti­
icing
operations
shall
also
provide
a
narrative
consideration
of
management
practices
to
control
or
manage
contaminated
runoff
from
areas
where
deicing/
anti­
icing
operations
occur
to
reduce
the
amount
of
pollutants
being
discharged
to
the
storm
sewer
system.
Structural
controls
such
as
establishing
a
centralized
aircraft
deicing
facility,
and/
or
collection
of
contaminated
runoff
for
treatment
or
recycling
should
be
considered.
Collection
and
treatment
alternatives
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
retention
basins,
detention
basins
with
metered
controlled
release,
Underground

by
way
of
sanitary
sewer
or
hauling
tankers.
Runoff
management
controls
that
the
operator
determines
to
be
reasonable
and
appropriate
shall
be
implemented
and
maintained.
The
plan
should
consider
the
recovery
of
deicing/
anti­
icing
materials
when
these
materials
are
applied
during
non­
precipitation
events
to
prevent
these
materials
from
later
becoming
a
source
of
storm
water
contamination.
The
plan
shall
provide
a
narrative
explanation
of
the
controls
selected
and
the
rationale
for
their
selection.
