The Nonpoint Source <br /> Management Program requires individual permits to control discharge associated with construction <br /> activities. The Nonpoint Source Program is administered by the Regional Water Quality Control <br /> Board(RWQCB)under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System(NPDES) General <br /> Permit for Construction Activities. Projects must comply with the requirements of the Nonpoint <br /> Source Program if they disturb one or more acres of soil. <br /> San Mateo Countywide Water Pollution Prevention Program <br /> The San Mateo Countrywide Water Pollution Prevention Program(SMCWPPP)was developed to <br /> assist co-permittees in implementing the provisions of the NPDES pern7it. This program was also <br /> designed to fulfill the requirements of Section 304(1) of the Federal Clean Water Act,which <br /> mandated that the Environmental Protection Agency develop NPDES application requirements for <br /> storm water runof£ The Program's Municipal Regional NPDES stormwater permit includes <br /> provisions requiring regulation of stormwater discharges associated with new development and <br /> development of an area-wide watershed management strategy.

This program discusses exempted activities,illicit discharge prohibitions, <br /> broad watercourse protection objectives, and best management practices for new and redevelopment <br /> projects. <br /> Redwood City Zoning Ordinance <br /> Section 32.12 of the City's Zoning Ordinance provides requirements related to stormwater treatment. <br /> The purpose of these requirements is to provide zoning standards that minimize the quantity of runoff <br /> and associated pollutants in stormwater runoff from developed sites to creeks,the stormdrain system, <br /> and ultimately,to the San Francisco Bay. According to the City's Zoning Ordinance, enhanced <br /> stormwater quality can be achieved through reduction of impervious surfaces,the protection of <br /> watercourses and riparian vegetation,providing for infiltration of stormwater on-site through <br /> vegetation and soils, and with engineered treatment systems. This section also requires that all new <br /> development, additions, and reconstruction are subject to the provisions of Chapter 27A of the City's <br /> Municipal Code. <br /> Kensington Assisted Living Facility Project 53 Initial Study <br /> Redwood City Apri12013 <br />
