SPPP Form 4 - Public Education and Outreach
All records must be available upon request by NJDEP.
1. Describe how public education and outreach events are advertised. Include specific websites
andlor physical locations where materials are available.
Educational brochures provided by the NJDEP are normally mailed within the City's tax bills to
all residents and businesses within the City of Bayonne. Educational brochures and other
supplemental educational information that are provided on NJDEP's websites
(https ://www.nj. gov/dep/dwq/msrp_suplment_ed.htm and
https://www.nj.gov/dep/dwq/msrp_ed_brochure.htm) are made available on the City's official
website (http://www.ba)'onnenj.com).
Additional copies of educational brochures are made available at the City's Public Library. The
City of Bayonne also incorporates stormwater management education into its annual events which
takes place during the fall. At this events, the City of Bayonne also provides educational brochures.
2. Describe how businesses and the general public within the municipality are educated about the
hazards associated with illicit connections and improper disposal of waste.
An Illicit Connection Ordinance has been adopted by the City of Bayonne to prohibit illicit
connections to the municipal separate storm sewer system (small MS4). In addition, the City has
implemented an inspection program through Suez, the company that manages Bayonne's water and
sewer utilities, to detect and eliminate illicit connections into the City's small MS4.
If the inspection program is able to locate an illicit connection the responsible party is cited for
being in violation of the Illicit Connection Ordinance, and the responsible party will be ordered to
eliminate the illicit connection. If an illicit connection cannot be located or is found to originate from
another public entity, the city will submit to the NJDEP a written explanation detailing the results of
the investigation and notify that public entity.
3. Indicate where public education and outreach records are maintained
Public education and outreach records are maintained at the Stormwater Program Coordinator office

1. How does the municipality define 'major development'?
Major development means any development that provides for ultimately disturbing one or more acres
of land or increasing impervious surface by one-quarter acre or more.
2. Does the municipality approach residential projects differently than it does for non-residential
projects? If so, how?
Yes. Residential and non-residential projects are reviewed to identify if the project qualifies as a
major development in accordance with the definition of major development in the RSI Standards or
City Ordinance, respectively. If the project qualifies as a major development, proposed stormwater
management measures are reviewed to verify that projects meet soil erosion, groundwater recharge,
stormwater runoff quantity and stormwater runoff quality standards at N.J.A.C.7:8-5.4 and 5.5. In
addition, projects are reviewed to verify that to the maximum extent practicable, these standards are
met by incorporating nonstructural stormwater management strategies at N.J.A.C.7:8.3 and as
required in the City Ordinance.
3. What process is in place to ensure that municipal projects meet the Stormwater Control
Ordinance?
All municipal projects that are deemed to be major projects are reviewed for compliance with soil
erosion, groundwater recharge, stormwater runoff quantity and stormwater runoff quality standards at
N.J.A.C. 7:8-5.4 and 5.5. In addition projects are reviewed to verify that to the maximum extent
practicable, these standards are met by incorporating nonstructural stormwater management
strategies at N.J.A.C.7:8.3 and as required in the City Ordinance.
4. Describe the process for reviewing major development project applications for compliance
with the Stormwater Control Ordinance (SCO) and Residential Site Improvement Standards
(RSIS). Attach a flow chart if available.
All applications for major development are reviewed to ensure it meets the requirements set forth in
the Stormwater Control Ordinances and the Municipal Stormwater Management Plan.
1. Existing Site Conditions

from the lowest point in the basin, or twice the maximum water depth in the basin.
e. Determine if the method to determine permeabilþ rate is permitted in the Appendix E Soil Testing
Criteria.
f. Veriff whether the soil designation from the Soil Survey is consistent with the soil testing result. If not,
adjust the HSG soil designation used in calculation of the quantity of the runoff.
4. Review of Calculation of Runoff Volume and Peak Flow
a. Review the applicability of the selected modelling method.
b. Review the modelling parameters for pre- and post-constructions, such as the runoff coefficient, curve
number, time of concentration, and HSG soil designation.
c. Identi$ if the runoff from impervious and pervious surfaces are calculated separately and not with a
weighted average of the CN numbers for impervious surface and pervious surface.
d. Determine if the curve number selection makes sense.
e. Determine if the method to determine permeability rate is permitted in the Appendix E Soil Testing
Criteria.
f. Veriff whether the soil designation from the Soil Survey is consistent with the soil testing result. If not,
adjust the HSG soil designation used in calculation of the quantity of the runoff.
5. Review of Water Quality Requirement
a. Determine if drainage areas having separate discharge points (identified in Step 2 above) are all
proposed to be treated to 80%o TSS removal.
b. Determine if the untreated, clean, roof runoff is mixed with roadway/parking area runoff before flow
into a BMP. If so, the volume of clean, roof runoff must be also considered with the volume of
roadway/parking area runoff.
c. IdentiS if any BMPs in series are in order of ascending TSS removal.
d. If a BMP with extended detention is used, determine if the detention time is calculated properly.
e. Identifl, the nonstructural strategies and BMPs that can reduce the nutrient load to the maximum extent
