(1) Small Projects are development where land disturbing activities are less than 5,000 square feet and ground disturbing activity does not have the potential to disturb or change existing drainage patterns. A Local Stormwater Permit is not typically required, but may be required per Section 10.32.060(3). Projects must comply with this Chapter, especially project/ construction site entrance control and management. Off-site tracking of materials shall be minimized to the extent practicable. Failure to conform to this requirement or the Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination Chapter (PCC 10.31) may result in a stop work order and/or fines or abatement proceedings.

(2) Per Section S3.B. of the NPDES Phase II Permit, the City has chosen to rely on Washington State University (WSU) to satisfy the City’s construction (S5.B.4.) and post-construction (S5.B.5.) requirements for development occurring on the WSU campus. Therefore, WSU shall not be required to obtain a Local Stormwater Permit or pay associated fees. The responsibilities of WSU and the City to ensure compliance with the NPDES Phase II Permit and this Chapter shall be established by memorandum of understanding between the two entities. (Ord. 11-1 §6, 2011).
