1.0 INTRODUCTION
In 2001, The University of Michigan-Ann Arbor (UMA2) received coverage under the Michigan
Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Stormwater drainage System (MS4) (Permit No.
MI00053902 issued September 26, 2001). This 2001 permit did not include the University of
Michigan-Flint (UMF) campus.
On April 15, 2009, UMA2 received coverage under the MDEQ, NPDES, MS4 Jurisdictional
General Permit (Permit No. MIS040090). This is the first permit that included UMF in its
coverage. As a condition of the coverage under MIS040090, The University of Michigan (U-M)
updated its Stormwater Management Program Plan (SWMPP) in May 2010 to include the
regional campuses (Dearborn and Flint).
MIS040090 was withdrawn on November 30, 2010, and coverage was continued under
MI0053902, which does not require the implementation of SWPPPs for municipal fleet
maintenance and storage yards/facilities. However, the SWMPP prepared in association with
MIS040090 was approved by MDEQ, and therefore UMF is required to develop the SWPPP as
directed in the SWMPP.
The UMF is required to prepare a SWPPP to comply with Section 8.3.3 of the U-M’s 2010
SWMPP. Section 8.3.3 specifically requires all municipal fleet maintenance and storage
yards/facilities that are not regulated as industrial activities to develop and implement a SWPPP,
therefore this plan encompasses the UMF Facilities and Operations (F&O) complex area. The
SWPPP will be developed in accordance with the Appendix to MDEQ NPDES MS4 Permit No.
MIS040090.
1.1 Purpose
This SWPPP has been developed in accordance with the requirements for fleet
maintenance and storage yards detailed in Section 8.3.3 of The U-M’s 2010 SWMPP.
The goal of this UMF SWPPP is to improve water quality by maximizing control of
significant materials and reducing the level of such materials in stormwater so the
discharges from the F&O complex site will not cause a violation of Michigan’s surface
water quality standards. Section 8.3.3 of The U-M’s 2010 SWMPP specifically requires
that a SWPPP include:
A. Source Identification
i. A site map
ii. A list of all significant materials that could pollute stormwater
iii. An evaluation and written description of the reasonable potential for contribution of
significant materials to run off
5
iv. Identification of the discharge point(s) through which material may be discharged if
released
v. A listing of all significant spills and significant leaks of significant polluting
materials
vi. A summary of existing stormwater discharge sampling data (if available)
B. Preventative Measures and Source Controls, Non-Structural
i. A preventative maintenance program
ii. A schedule for comprehensive site inspection
iii. A description of good housekeeping procedures to maintain a clean, orderly facility
iv. A description of material handling procedures and storage requirements for
significant materials
v. Identification of areas which, due to topography, activities, or other factors, have a
high potential for significant soil erosion
vi. A description of employee training programs
vii. Identification of significant materials that may be present in stormwater discharges
following implementation of the non-structural preventative measures and sources
controls
C. Structural Controls for Prevention and Treatment
a. A description of the structural controls
D. Compliance
i. Ensure the plan is regularly evaluated and updated
ii. Ensure only stormwater is discharged from the facility or that an NPDES permit
covers non-stormwater discharges for such discharges.
2.0 SITE MAP AND FACILITY DESCRIPTION
2.1 University of Michigan-Flint Campus Description
The UMF is located at 303 East Kearsley Street, Flint, Michigan. The institution is
located on 70 acres in the downtown area of the city of Flint, Michigan and has
property immediately adjacent to the Flint River (see Figure 1 and Figure 2). UMF is
a full service institution involved in higher education that also provides housing,
power, maintenance, medical, transportation, and food services. This SWPPP is for
the F&O complex which consists of the 1) Central Energy Plant, 2) Hubbard
Building, and 3) adjacent parking lot (see Figure 3), which are all located south of
the river, on the east side of the campus.

with secondary containment. 200-gallons of ethylene glycol are located on the roof of
the building.
The UMF Hubbard Building and adjacent parking lot is located at 602 Mill Street in
Flint, Michigan. The Hubbard Building is a single story building above ground, with
a partial basement. The Hubbard Building houses the following service units:
Architectural and Engineering Services, Building Maintenance, Business Operations,
Custodial Services, Fleet Maintenance, Grounds Maintenance, Materials
Management, and Skilled Trades. In addition, F&O and DPS administrative offices
are also located in the Hubbard Building. Chemicals used to support service unit
activities in the building are stored inside the Hubbard Building. These materials are
ordered as needed. Quantities are variable, but typically are stored in volumes of five
gallons or less. The exceptions are the four to six larger containers of motor oil and
related vehicle fluids stored in 55-gallon drums and on spill pallets with secondary
containment.
The Architectural and Engineering Services Unit provides a wide range of services
related to renovation and construction design and energy management and
conservation studies. Architectural and Engineering services does not utilize any
significant materials which would be of concern to this SWPPP.
The Building Maintenance Unit provides general building maintenance and
installation services such as lock/door hardware, plumbing, window, ceiling, wall,
and floor repair and replacement; classroom equipment, office furniture and
departmental equipment repair; core assembly; and minor installations, This unit also
operates a woodshop in the building. Environmental control and energy management
is implemented by building control and management systems located in the Hubbard
Building. All supplies, including paints, primer, solvents, adhesives, cleaners and
other related materials, and equipment needed for Building Maintenance are located
in the Hubbard Building and outdoor storage shed. As described above, materials are
ordered as needed. Quantities are variable, but typically are stored in volumes of five
gallons or less. More accurate accounts of materials can be found in the EHSA
system, which now serves as UM-Flint’s Chemical Inventory System.
7
The Business Operations Unit is typically the first contact from the University
community when service is requested. Business Operations include clerical and
secretarial services which don’t utilize any significant materials.
The Custodial Services Unit provides routine housekeeping services to the University
related to the cleaning of restrooms, locker rooms, pool areas, public spaces, dining
areas, classrooms, general labs, lecture halls, offices, and non-hazardous material spill
clean-up. Some custodial chemicals such as cleaners, degreasers, floor stripper,
solvents, etc. are stored in the building. As described above, materials are ordered as
needed. Quantities are variable, but typically are stored in volumes of five gallons or
less, and are accounted for within the Chemical Inventory System.
The Fleet Maintenance Unit is based in the Hubbard Building shop area and provides
routine and emergency maintenance of University vehicles and motorized equipment
on the UMF campus. Chemical supplies stored in this area include motor oil, grease,
cleaning solvents, some paint, lubricating fluids, coolants, etc. As described above,
materials are ordered as needed. Quantities are variable, but typically are stored in
volumes of five gallons or less, and are accounted for within the Chemical Inventory
System. The exceptions are the four to six larger containers of motor oil and related
vehicle fluids stored in 55-gallon drums and on spill pallets with secondary
containment.
The Grounds Maintenance Unit provides landscaping care for campus grounds which
include walkway, roadway and parking lot maintenance; snow/ice removal; turf care
programs; irrigation system installation and maintenance; tree, shrub and flower
planting and maintenance; exterior signage, installation and maintenance; and pest
control. Equipment used for these services is stored and maintained at the F&O
complex. Chemicals used by this unit are stored in the Hubbard building as well as in
the Hazardous Material Storage building within the complex. Chemicals include
deicing solutions, salt, oils, oils, herbicides, pesticides, fuel, cleaners, etc. As
described above, materials are ordered as needed. Quantities are variable, but
typically are stored in volumes of five gallons or less and are accounted for within the
Chemical Inventory System.
The Materials Management/Mailroom Unit is responsible for receiving, shipping and
delivering packages, stocking and dispensing maintenance materials, and tracking
capital equipment throughout campus. The central receiving area is located at the
Hubbard Building and is used campus wide for all items where a purchase order is
issued. Packages are inspected for visual damage by the Material Services staff. Spill
kits are located in the shipping/receiving area for spill prevention.
The Skilled Trades Unit provides maintenance and installation services related to all
utilities which include: maintenance of the Central Energy Plant and the Utility
8
Distribution Systems which supply steam and chilled water, domestic water, and
primary electrical services; heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC)
maintenance and service; operation or repair of domestic water and wastewater
systems; operation of other piped utilities (natural gas, compressed air, vacuum and
high purity water); electrical and lighting repair and circuit breaker reset; thermostat
and building environmental control repair and recalibration; Energy Management
System operation and maintenance; installation, relocation and repair of lighting,
outlets, and switches, etc.; and laboratory fume hood operation and maintenance.
An outdoor storage shed is located along the northeast portion of the complex and is
used to store road salt (maximum of 50 tons), as well as, grounds landscaping and
maintenance equipment, such as mowers, plow blades, tools, applicator equipment,
Bobcat, earth moving equipment, carts, and vehicles (if there is room).
The chemicals stored in the Hazardous Materials (HazMat) Building and additional
ASTs and USTs in the adjacent parking lot support the activities and operations
related to the Hubbard Building and CEP. The HazMat building stores regulated
waste, Grounds Maintenance chemicals and fuels, and have a built in secondary
containment. Beneath the adjacent parking lot area are three USTs that each have the
capacity of containing 30,000-gallons of heating oil. The three ASTs contain 5,000-
gallons of magnesium chloride brine solution, 500-gallons of gasoline, and 1,000-
gallons of diesel fuel.
Disposal of any waste chemicals and hazardous materials is coordinated by UMF
Environment, Health and Safety (EHS). Other maintenance, repair, renovation, and
construction related activities not mentioned above are typically managed/overseen
by F&O. Outside contractors may be hired to assist in campus related work activities
such as pest control, equipment installation, electrical/mechanical equipment repairs,
plumbing problems, constructions/renovations.
Waste disposal of non-hazardous waste is provided by a commercial waste hauler
through contracts administered by F&O. Regular trash is placed in compactors and
containers by the Housekeeping Services Unit during daily operations. Other large
objects, construction waste, or hazardous materials are never placed in trash
receptacles.
2.3 Certified Operator and Stormwater Management Team
In addition to the SWPPP, the University also operates under an Emergency
Response Plan (ERP) for safely and effectively responding to emergencies on the
campus, a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) plan for bulk oil
storage, and a Pollution Incident Prevention Plan (PIPP) for polluting materials.
Current copies of the ERP, SPCC, PIPP and SWPPP are provided to key individuals
in F&O, particularly those with responsibility over the purchase, use, and storage of
9
significant materials used in the Hubbard and CEP buildings. Additionally, copies
are stored by EHS and are available for review. A copy of the SWPPP is also stored
and available for review in the UMF Hubbard Building F&O administration offices.

3.0 SOURCE IDENTIFICATION
This section describes potential sources and significant materials that may pollute stormwater
(See Table 1 and Figure 4 for specific significant materials relevant to the F&O complex).
Significant materials include any material which could degrade or impair water quality,
including, but not limited to: raw materials; fuels; solvents, detergents, and plastic pellets;
10
finished materials, such as metallic products; hazardous substances designated under Section
101(14) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act
(CERCLA); any chemical the facility is required to report pursuant to Section 313 of the
Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA); polluting materials (oil and
any material, in solid or liquid form, identified as a polluting material under the Part 5 Rules
[Rules 324.2001 through 324.2009 of the Michigan Administrative Code]); Hazardous Wastes as
defined in Part 111 of the Michigan Act; fertilizers; pesticides; and waste products, such as
ashes, slag, sludge, and plant and animal wastes that have the potential to be release with storm
water discharges. These sources include identification of residual contaminants that may be
found in items stored outside (example: oil, rust, or debris from vehicles; fertilizer; salt; air
particles which have settled). Reference Table 1.
3.1 Best Management Practices
Best management practices (BMP) are implemented at the facility to prevent or
reduce the potential pollutants from entering the stormwater network and migrating
off-site. The BMPs identified in Table 2 should be followed and maintained for each
significant material source identified. Refer to Section 6.1 on tracking methods.
3.2 Facility Drainage
The topography of the F&O complex is generally flat. The parking lot between the
Hubbard Building and the CEP is completely paved so that all stormwater flows into
the onsite stormwater system. There are five stormwater catch basins on the F&O
complex. The facility’s stormwater system discharges through a series of outfalls
directly to the Flint River. Floor drains inside the F&O buildings discharge to the City
of Flint sanitary sewer system. (See Figure 5 for storm drain outlets and
connections.)
4.0 SPILL AND LEAK HISTORY
A listing of significant spills and leaks of polluting materials that occur at the F&O complex site
will be provided in Table 3. No releases of oils or other polluting materials in excess of
reportable quantities under Michigan’s Part 5 rules, CERCLA or the Clean Water Act have
occurred at the F&O complex in the three years prior to the effective date of the Stormwater
Certificate of Coverage (MIS040090), April 15, 2009 to present.
Spill Reports are submitted to the MDEQ, copies are forwarded to UMA2 OSEH, and filed at
UMF EHS and are available for review at any time. All releases to stormwater systems will be
controlled in accordance with the SWPPP. The SWPPP is reviewed following significant spill
events to the storm sewer and updated as appropriate within 14 calendar days of obtaining
knowledge of the spill or leak.
11
5.0 STORMWATER DISCHARGE SAMPLING DATA
UMF has not done any stormwater discharge sampling at the outfalls. In 2012-2013, Soil &
Materials Engineers, Inc. (SME) conducted dry weather inspections which consisted of
analytical testing in the catch basins. The January 2013 Dry Weather Screening Report is
available through EHS.
Consumers Energy is currently investigating a historical Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP) site.
The MGP site is not located within the boundaries of the F&O SWPPP site, however, there is a
storm drain network originating from the above referenced F&O site that does go through the
MGP site before reaching the outfall at the Flint River. Part of this active investigation involves
looking at the conditions along the Flint River and evaluating the release of petroleum and MGP
related material. Consumers Energy is planning a remediation response in and along the river in
2017. This activity is being closely monitored by the MDEQ. If outfall data from the F&O site is
collected by the university, it will be summarized in Table 4.
6.0 SWPPP MAINTENANCE
SWPPP maintenance describes the non-structural stormwater controls implemented at the F&O
complex to prevent polluted stormwater discharge. The controls consist of an active preventive
maintenance program that involves the inspection and maintenance of stormwater management
devices and routine inspections of various facility operations to ensure compliance.
6.1 Preventative Maintenance
The U-M’s 2010 SWMPP requires a preventative maintenance program that includes
routine inspection and maintenance of stormwater management devices. The
maintenance procedures are employed as needed, or at least annually, to ensure
proper function of the stormwater system. Inspection records and corrective actions
will be maintained electronically through the Work Order System for a minimum of
three years. F&O will provide copies of inspection records and supporting documents
to EHS upon request and on an annual basis.
A description of the preventative maintenance tasks for the F&O complex, along with
responsible person/department, and frequency are included in Table 5. The tracking
mechanism used for all maintenance tasks is F&O’s Work Order System, an
electronic record keeping database.
12
6.2 Comprehensive Site Inspection
Quarterly inspections will be implemented as BMPs to further minimize the potential
for stormwater pollution. Inspections will be conducted by an employee who has been
trained and is familiar with the contents and purpose of this plan, as well as the site’s
operations and maintenance activities, and the inspection checklist. Stormwater
compliance inspections may be combined with the SPCC/PIPP inspections.
If an inspection indicates the need for corrective action, it will be noted on the
appropriate form, and the date the corrective action is completed will be recorded and
initialed by the inspector. Copies of completed inspection documents will be provided
to EHS.
6.3 Housekeeping Procedures
Good housekeeping procedures are maintained at the F&O complex to ensure the
facility is clean and orderly, promoting a safe work environment and decreasing
pollution exposure potential. Spills or leaks will be cleaned up in a timely manner.
Quarterly facility inspections are conducted to verify good housekeeping procedures
are conducted. These inspections are completed in conjunction with the quarterly
preventative maintenance inspections.
6.4 Material Handling Procedures and Storage Requirements
It is a shared responsibility of all F&O employees to follow environmentally sound
material handling procedures and storage requirements. Each UMF employee
receives an appropriate level of training dependent on their specific job duties.
Hazardous waste material handling procedures and storage requirements are detailed
in the UMF Hazardous Waste Management Program. Emergency spill procedures are
outlined in the UMF Emergency Response Plan and through the Hazard
Communication Program. UMF’s SPCC and PIPP provide guidelines for preventing
the release of petroleum substances and polluting materials into the environment.
(These documents can be found at www.umflint.edu/ehs.) Spill response and
containment equipment is readily available in a number of areas including the
Hubbard loading dock, Hazardous Material (HazMat) storage building, CEP, and
adjacent to the above-ground storage tank (AST) location in the Hubbard parking lot,
to increase preparedness and response time if a spill were to occur.
During loading and unloading activities, designated personal are present, drains are
protected, and spill kits are available throughout the facility. Any leaks or drips are
cleaned up immediately. Materials are directly unloaded into buildings and are stored
within the building to prevent exposure to stormwater. Contractors are required to
13
comply fully with the University’s Contractor Safety requirements. F&O project
managers, employees, as well as EHS, will monitor and enforce these requirements.
Outdoor storage units are covered and closed. Containers are properly labeled, stored,
sealed/closed, and protected from weather/rain. Additionally, as part of the
SPCC/PIPP, the University incorporates secondary containment for bulk storage
containers.
6.5 Spill Prevention and Response
The UMF has a well-established campus-wide ERP and SPCC/PIPP. The ERP
includes response guidelines for incidental and large hazardous material spills and
releases. The SPCC/PIPP plan provides guidelines for preventing the release of
petroleum substances and polluting materials into the environment, especially to
stormwater which may discharge to the surface waters of the state. The SPCC/PIPP
provides guidelines for inspections (including bulk materials stored in these areas),
preventative maintenance, commitment of resources, and emergency response
procedures that will be implemented consistent with the ERP in the event of a spill at
the UMF campus. In the event that a spill is beyond the response capability of UMF
staff, an outside environmental contractor will be contacted to assist in the response.
6.6 Erosion and Sediment Control
As required in Part 91 (Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control) of the Natural
Resources and Environmental Protection Act (NREPA), the U-M has an integral Soil
Erosion and Sediment Control (SESC) procedure as part of the stormwater program.
Preventative soil erosion measures such as silt fencing, erosion blankets, and street
sweeping are practiced during times of construction. The vegetative landscaping
along the Flint River helps keep the potential for soil erosion low. Currently, the F&O
complex does not have any areas with a high potential for significant erosion due to
topography, activities, or other factors.
6.7 Employee Training
Employee training is provided annually to key personnel working at the site to teach
the basics and goals of this SWPPP. This is a BMP that raises awareness about
stormwater protection, and further reduces the potential for stormwater pollution.
Specific topics include: 1) the purpose and goals of the UMF SWPPP, and 2) current
BMPs including good housekeeping, spill prevention and response, preventative
maintenance, and inspections. SWPPP training may be in conjunction with general
stormwater awareness training provided to employees and contractors.
14
General employee training conducted by EHS will be maintained by EHS. Job
specific training above and beyond EHS employee training will be maintained by
F&O.
6.8 Significant Materials Expected to be in Stormwater Discharges
The non-structural controls previously described, which include maintenance of the
structural stormwater controls, are expected to minimize or eliminate discharge of
significant materials from the site via stormwater. The most likely significant
materials to be discharged are petroleum compounds from leaking vehicles parking
outdoors at the F&O complex, deicing materials from the storage shed, and/or from
spill during loading/unloading operations of the above ground storage tanks.
6.9 Structural Controls for Prevention and Treatment
When non-structural controls do not adequately protect surface waters from
significant materials, structural controls are implemented. The structural controls
address these situations in Table 1. There are several storm drain catch basins in the
parking lot area. The stormwater network leads to outfall ST07-01 into the Flint
River.
6.10 Revisions
The SWPPP was developed in close consultation with F&O. Revisions to this
SWPPP are completed by EHS and shared/discussed with F&O personnel. Michael
Lane will administer the implementation of the SWPPP on the UMF campus.

Potential for rainfall accumulation in refuse container (which could cause rust and then cause a hole in the container and leak)
Spillage during loading and unloading, adequate cover of dumpsters, sweeping of area
Medium
Waste handling procedures/ inspections
All refuse containers have covers, frequent sweeping and cleanup of storage compound, storm drain in area has protective fabric filter insert
Surrounding drains are protected to prevent runoff
from rain/snow
Hubbard lot is swept on a quarterly basis to prevent debris from entering storm drains.
Construction and landscaping 40 yard open top is
covered every time the container is emptied. Additionally, the cover is always available to contain waste and debris to prevent pollution in the storm drains.
Empty trash containers, drums, and pails are
stored upside down to avoid accumulation of stormwater.
Materials could drain to ST07 outfalls.
