Abstract Long Description

Effective April 2003, permittees under the Industrial Stormwater General Permit (ISGP) have been required to provide self-monitoring data of runoff discharge. Results from the first year of self-monitoring show elevated levels of zinc. Two potential sources of elevated zinc in runoff have been identified. They are runoff from galvanized roofs and leakage of hydraulic fluid from heavy equipment. In this screening level study, sources of zinc in industrial stormwater runoff will be evaluated. In addition, results from self monitoring will be verified and individual locations for taking self-monitoring samples evaluated.
