Contractor: Golden Gate Construction, Inc.

Contractor’s Address: 14709 Carmenita Road, Norwalk, CA 90650 The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) is a portion of the Clean Water Act that applies to the protection of receiving waters. Under permits from the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), certain activities are subject to RWQCB enforcement. To meet the standards of the Waste Discharge Requirements for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Discharges within the Coastal Watershed of Los Angeles County, Except those Discharges Originating from the City of Long Beach MS4 (CAS004001), the City of Vernon has adopted minimum standards for stormwater runoff from development construction activities.

These minimum standards require the implementation of an effective combination of erosion and sediment control Best Management Practices (BMPs) to prevent erosion and sediment loss, and the discharge of construction waste at each site. At a minimum, the construction activity associated with the construction project identified above shall be conducted in such a manner that: ¾ Prevents illicit construction-related discharges of pollutants into the MS4 and receiving waters. ¾ Implements and maintains structural and non-structural BMPs to reduce pollutants in stormwater runoff from construction sites.
¾ Reduces construction site discharges of pollutants to the MS4 to the maximum extent practicable. ¾ Prevents construction site discharges to the MS4 from causing or contributing to a violation of water quality standards.

Note: The Stormwater BMP Construction Handbook sheets developed by the California Stormwater Quality Association shall be used as guidance in determining and implementing required BMPs. The BMP sheets may be reviewed at the Public Works Department counter during regular business hours. A General Construction Permit shall be obtained and maintained for all construction sites one (1) acre or greater. Additional conditions may be required for these sites.
