State Water Resources Control Board Order No. 2006-0003 Page 2 of 20 <br />Statewide General WDR For Wastewater Collection Agencies 5/2/06 <br />SEWER SYSTEM MANAGEMENT PLANS <br />5. To facilitate proper funding and management of sanitary sewer systems, each <br />Enrollee must develop and implement asystem-specific Sewer System <br />Management Plan (SSMP). To be effective, SSMPs must include provisions to <br />provide proper and efficient management, operation, and maintenance of <br />sanitary sewer systems, while taking into consideration risk management and <br />cost benefit analysis. Additionally, an SSMP must contain a spill response plan <br />that establishes standard procedures for immediate response to an SSO in a <br />manner designed to minimize water quality impacts and potential nuisance <br />conditions. <br />6. Many local public agencies in California have already developed SSMPs and <br />implemented measures to reduce SSOs. These entities can build upon their <br />existing efforts to establish a comprehensive SSMP consistent with this Order. <br />Others, however, still require technical assistance and, in some cases, funding to <br />improve sanitary sewer system operation and maintenance in order to reduce <br />SSOs. <br />7. SSMP certification by technically qualified and experienced persons can provide <br />a useful and cost-effective means for ensuring that SSMPs are developed and <br />implemented appropriately. <br />8. It is the State Water Board's intent to gather additional information on the causes <br />and sources of SSOs to augment existing information and to determine the full <br />extent of SSOs and consequent public health and/or environmental impacts <br />occurring in the State. <br />9. Both uniform SSO reporting and a centralized statewide electronic database are <br />needed to collect information to allow the State Water Board and Regional Water <br />Quality Control Boards (Regional Water Boards) to effectively analyze the extent <br />of SSOs statewide and their potential impacts on beneficial uses and public <br />health. The monitoring and reporting program required by this Order and the <br />attached Monitoring and Reporting Program No. 2006-0003, are necessary to <br />assure compliance with these waste discharge requirements (WDRs). <br />10. Information regarding SSOs must be provided to Regional Water Boards and <br />other regulatory agencies in a timely manner and be made available to the public <br />in a complete, concise, and timely fashion. <br />11. Some Regional Water Boards have issued WDRs or WDRs that serve as <br />National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits to sanitary <br />sewer system owners/operators within theirjurisdictions. This Order establishes <br />minimum requirements to prevent SSOs. Although it is the State Water Board's <br />intent that this Order be the primary regulatory mechanism for sanitary sewer <br />systems statewide, Regional Water Boards may issue more stringent or more <br />
