Summary of situations where infiltration of stormwater runoff is prohibited or not recommended.
Link to this table
Condition | Prohibited | Not recommended | Not recommended unless conditions are met1 |
---|---|---|---|
Local rule or ordinance prohibits infiltration | X | ||
BMP is < 100 feet from drinking well in sensitive aquifer3 | X | ||
BMP is < 50 feet from drinking well in a non-sensitive aquifer3 | X | ||
BMP receives discharges from vehicle fueling and maintenance areas | if CGP applies2 | X | |
There is less than 3 of separation to bedrock or saturated soil | if CGP applies | X | |
BMP receives discharges from certain industrial facilities4 | if CGP applies | ||
BMP is areas where high levels of contaminants in soil or groundwater will be mobilized by the infiltrating stormwater | if CGP applies | X | |
BMP is located in D soils | if CGP applies | X | |
BMP is 1,000 feet up-gradient or 100 feet down-gradient of active karst | if CGP applies | X | |
BMP is located within an Emergency Response Area in a DWSMA exhibiting high or very high vulnerability | if CGP applies | ||
BMP is located within an Emergency Response Area (ERA) in a DWSMA exhibiting moderate vulnerability, or outside an ERA in a DWSMA exhibiting high or very high vulnerability | if CGP applies, unless a higher engineering review indicates infiltration is acceptable | ||
BMP is located in soils with infiltration rate > 8.3 in/hr unless amended or infiltration allowed by LGU with a current MS4 permit | if CGP applies | X | |
BMP is located within 1 year travel time of drinking supply well | X | ||
BMP located within 10 feet of building or structure | X | ||
BMP located within 35 feet of a septic system | X | ||
BMP located less than 200 feet from toe of slope that exceeds 20% | X | ||
BMP receives discharges from a confirmed stormwater hotspot | X | ||
A groundwater mound formed beneath the BMP during infiltration extends into the BMP | X |
