PSH Operation	Polluting Activity
Vehicle Operations	Improper disposal of fluids down shop and storm drains Spilled fuel, leaks and drips from wrecked vehicles Hosing of outdoor work areas*Wash water from cleaning Uncovered outdoor storage of liquids/oils/batteries spills Pollutant wash-off from parking lot
Outdoor Materials	Spills at loading areas Hosing/washing of loading areas into shop or storm drains Wash-off of uncovered bulk materials and liquids stored outside, of particular concern in MN are road salt storage areas Leaks and spills
Waste Management	Spills and leaks of liquids Dumping into storm drains Leaking dumpsters (Dumpster juice) Wash-off of dumpster spillage Accumulation of particulate deposits
Physical Plant Maintenance	Discharges from power washing and steam cleaning Wash-off of fine particles from painting/sandblasting operations Rinse water and wash water discharges during cleanup Temporary outdoor storage Runoff from degreasing and re-surfacing
Turf and Landscaping	Non-target irrigation Runoff of nutrients and pesticides Deposition and subsequent washoff of soil and organic matter on impervious surfaces Improper rinsing of fertilizer/pesticide applicators
Unique PSH Operations (Pools, Golf Courses, Marinas, Construction, Restaurants, Hobby Famrs)	Varies but includes: Discharge of chlorinated water from pools Improper disposal of sewage and grease Wash off of livestock manure Soil erosion Runooff of pesticides Salt storage
