These containment plans need to be approved by the City of Springfield, Vehicle storage areas should be constructed such thatthey prevent al)yleaks or spills from entering the soil or storm water drainage system. Runoff from parking areas should pass through a system of catch basins, oil/water separators, and bio-swales before entering the City's storm water drainage system, These plans need to bc approved by the. City of Springfield, All chemical storage ~hall be placed in appropriate secondary containment. Sealants us~d in containment . areas (if applicable) should be compatible with chemicals stored within them. Again, no new DNAPL chemicals ate allowed in the Overlay District. As part of the process for a DWP Overlay District application (if applicable), SUB should be provided with copies ofMSDS for materials proposed for use; facility Hazardous Materials & Waste Management Plans; a general description of storage areas within the structures and a complete description.of storage amounts, including capacity of containment and a l _ l' containment plan for the facility; and a description of all activities involving hazardous materials storage, use, etc, These will take sorne time foneview, Rooftop mounted equipment and other fluid-containing equipment located outside the building should be sealed and provided with secondary containment or a weather resistant enclosure, In the event of a spill or leak, this will prevent any fluids from migrating into the storm water'drainage system, If applicable, chemicals stored outdoors (fertilizers, pesticides, etc,) should be covered and placed in secondary containment. Special precautions (e,g" secondary containment, covered storage ar~as, signage) should be taken in the gravel yard spaces to prevent hazardous materials from reaching the ground surface, All lease agreements should include language requiring compliance )'lith Article 17 Drinking Water Protection (DWP)~Over1ay District of the Springfield Development <;Code, which may include completing a City of Springfield Drinking Water Protection Application, Tenants must submit a hazardous materials . , , inventory statement to the Springfield Utility Board Water Quality Protection Coordinator to determine whether o~ not a Drinking Water Protection Application will be requ'!red. In preparation for addressing the requirements of Article 17, SUB recommends that the.applicant consider building secondary containment into the construction ofthe building(e,g" a floor with a chemical-resistant sealant. and protected floor drains), Please feel free to call me a1'744'3745 to discuss the requirements of Article 17 and options for secondary containment.

" Storm water from parking and landscape areas should be routed to discharge to an infiltration system that incorporates vegetative treatment methods, These pfans need to be approved by the City of Springfield, Bio-swales are an excellent way to retard the infiltration of runoff. Soils lining the swale(s) should be amended with clay as a means of further reducing their permeability,!' A sub-surface layer of heavy clay soils beneath the planting beds would also serve the purpose of directing excess moisture containing fertilizers and/or pesticides from porous planting media into the bio:swale(s), Catch basins at loading docks should be connected to. the s~nitary sewer. Areas directly over loading docks and the catch basins sho~ld be covere'd, Cut-off trenches should be installed up-gradient to the catch basins to divert rainwater from erite'ring the sanitary sewer. All injection wells (if applicable) must be approved by both the City of Springfield and DEQ based on proximity to domestic/public drinking water we'lls, soils type, and depth to groundwater. , !i Because storm water recharges the aquifer, SUB requests that wellhead protection signs be placed adjacent to loading docks and elsewhere on the site to alert contractors, subcohtraCtors, employees, and others to the importance ofreporting and cleaning up any spiils (sign standard att~ched). Please contact AmyChinitz (541-744-3745) if you prefer to purchase signs directly from SUB aHhe cost of $ IS/sign, Feel free.to contact me at 541-744-3745 for further details or with any questions, '.
