BLD2010-0646BMPs for Description of Pollutant Sources: Landscapi��g can include grading, soil Landscaping transfer, vegetation removal, pesticide and fertilizer applications, and and Lawnl � waterinb. Stormwater contaminants .include topic orbanic compounds, Vegetation heavy metals, oils, total suspended solids, coliform bacteria, fer�ilEzers, and Management pesticides. Lawn and vegetation management can include cont�-o1 of objectionable weeds, insects, mold, bacteria and other pests with chemical pesticides and is conducted commercially at comme�•cial, industrial, and residential sires. Examples include weed control on golf course lawns, access roads, and utility corridors and during landscaping; sap stain and insect control on lumber and logs; rooftop moss removal; killing nuisance rodents; fungicide application io patio decks, and residential lawn/plant cage. Toxic pesticides such as pentachlorophenol, carbamates, and organome�allics can be released to the environment by leaching and dripping from treated parts, container leaks, product misuse, and outside storage of pesticide contaminated materials and equipment. Poor management of the vegetation and poor application of pesticides or fertilizers can cause appreciable stormwater contamination. Pollutan# Control Approach: Control of fertilizer and pesticide applications, soil erosion, and site debris to prevent contamination of stormwatier. Develop and implement an �n�egrated Felt Manabement Phan (ZPM} and use pesticides only as a last resort. If pesticides/herbicides are used they must be carefully applied in accordance with label instructions on U.S. . _ Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) registered materials. Maintain appropriate vegetation, with proper fertilizer application where practicable, to control erosion and the discharge of stormwater pollutants. Where practicable grow plant species appropriate for the site, or adjust the soil properties of the subject site to grow desired plant species. Applicable Opera#tonal BMPs for Landscaping: • Install engineered soilllandscape systems to improve the infiltration and regulation of stormwafier in landscaped areas. • Do not dispose of collected vegetation info waterways or storm drainage systems. Recommended Additional �perat�onal BMPs for Landscaping: Conduct mu�ch�mowing whenever practicable • Dispose of grass clippings, leaves, sticks, or other collected vegetation, by composting, if feasible. :� February 2005 Volume 1 V -Source Control BMPs 2�23 1 �`� �� �� DAVIDO CONSULTING GROUP, INC.
