SMARTS Navigation
•Only a Legally Responsible Person (LRP) or Duly Authorized Representative (DAR) can certify reports.
•Who should be the LRP?• SDCOE FACJPA recommends Assistant Superintendent or above
• More than one LRP can be designated
•Who should be a DAR?• SDCOE FACJPA recommends Director of Transportation or similar
• Not required, but a DAR can certify reports for the LRP
•At least 2 individuals should have certification rights (either 2 LRPs or 1 LRP and 1 DAR)

• When: Every Month• Once a month, every month of the year.
• Within daytime operating hours
• On days without precipitation
•What to observe:• “Outdoor industrial equipment and storage areas, outdoor industrial activities areas, BMPs, and all other potential source of industrial pollutants.”
• Your forms are specific to your facility• All drainage areas listed are applicable; ensure no industrial activities are occurring in non‐industrial areas (i.e. parking only) or tracking out of contained areas
• Use your site map for reference
Visual Observations: Monthly
Visual Observations: Monthly
• Walk and observe entire facility (includes adjacent, non‐industrial areas)
• Set a recurring event early in the month
• Ensure nothing is flowing to drains
• If a discharge is found, describe how it was stopped.
• Ensure all outdoor areas are clean.
• It is OK to note a deficiency, but a resolution must also be noted.
• What next?
• Check for completeness
• Send copy to Sally and Annika ASAP

MONITORING
Sampling Events
When do I collect a sample?• First sample: July‐December
• Second sample: January‐June
• During a qualified storm event (QSE):
• No runoff for 48 hours prior to the event
• Generates runoff during operating hours
•Within 4 hours of:
• The start of runoff, OR:
• The start of facility operations (if runoff started within the prior 12 hours)
• Within daytime operating hours under safe conditions

Sampling Events
Where do I collect a sample?
At all INDUSTRIAL discharge points that have storm water runoff
• Refer to your site map
• Refer to your sample form
AFTER treatment
Where water is flowing, not puddled
Sampling Events
•How do I know what time run‐off started, if I wasn’t there?• Runoff from a paved site is expected at around 0.1 inches
• Check your nearest weather station: www.wunderground.com/history
• OR‐ install a weather station on site
•How do I know if it is supposed to rain?• http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=32.8982&lon=‐117.2028#.V‐B7NvkrKUk
•What if I won’t be around?• Check in with your alternate sampling staff• If all are unavailable, call Annika (858) 586‐6600 x20; D‐Max staff can take your sample for you (fees apply)

Sampling Events: Supplementary Testing
• If you are in Level 1 or 2, or are in baseline but your first sample had exceedances:• It is recommended to sample more than the minimum QSEs, in order to bring down your average.
• Supplementary testing only needs to include the pollutants that are over the NAL. (Less money!!)• Only conduct supplementary testing if you have reason to believe the results will be below NALs.
•You still need to test your full kit the standard 2x/year
•Annika will advise you of these options in your sample analysis letter
Visual Observations: Sampling Event
•When: During Sample Collection• Complete at the time of sampling.• Complete at every sample point.
• ONLY look at the final flow, nothing prior to passing through fiber rolls, booms, or sandbags.
•What am I looking for?• Pollutants actively flowing offsite (at discharge points)• Floating/suspended materials• Oil and grease• Discolorations• Turbidity• Odors• Trash/debris

Visual Observations: Sampling Event
•What if I do see some pollutants?• Place sandbags, fiber rolls, oil absorbent booms, etc. to eliminate pollutants.
• If ANY pollutants marked “Yes,” or pH is less than 6 or more than 9; find out why, take action, and record what was done about it on the form (i.e. swept, replaced boom, placed work order, etc.).
• Send copy of form to Sally and Annika ASAP (needed before your analysis letter and SMARTS report can be completed)
Visual Observations: Sampling Event
•Measure the pH and record on your form• Dip paper strip into flowing water for a few seconds or until paper is wet
• Immediately compare color of paper to the guide on the package (to the nearest 0.5)
Acceptable Range
If pH is less than 6 or more than 9, take it again to be sure

Storm Water Sample Collection•Where possible, use a clean sample bottle to collect water directly or fill other bottles
• If another container is used, ensure the container is clean, and rinse with sample water before collecting
