Part II.B.1.d.ii. and to stormwater. Minimization of exposure is not required in cases where the exposure to precipitation and to stormwater will not result in a discharge of pollutants, or where exposure of a specific material or product poses little risk of stormwater contamination (such as final products and materials intended for outdoor use); and iii. Prevent the discharge of pollutants from spills and leaks and implement chemical spill and leak prevention and response procedures. e. Surface Outlets. When discharging from basins and impoundments, the surface outlets must be designed, constructed, and maintained in such a manner that sediment does not leave the basin or impoundment and that erosion at or below the outlet does not occur. C. Post-Construction Stormwater Management Practice (SMP) Requirements 1. The owner or operator of a construction activity that requires post- construction SMPs, in accordance with Part III.C., must select, design, install, implement, and maintain the SMPs to meet the performance criteria in the New York State Stormwater Management Design Manual, dated July 31, 2024 (DM), using sound engineering judgment. Where SMPs are not designed in conformance with the performance criteria in the DM, the owner or operator must include in the SWPPP the reason(s) for the deviation or alternative design and provide information which demonstrates that the deviation or alternative design is equivalent to the technical standard. 2. The owner or operator of a construction activity, that requires SMPs in accordance with Part III.C., must design the practices to meet the applicable sizing criteria in Part II.C.2.a., b., c., or d. a. Sizing Criteria for New Development i. Runoff Reduction Volume (RRv) and Water Quality Volume (WQv): 1. Reduce the total WQv by application of RR techniques and standard SMPs with RRv capacity. The total WQv must be calculated in accordance with the criteria in Section 4.2 of the DM; or 23 Page 729 of 849
