Recommended Conditions of Approval February 20, 2014 <br />PLN2013-00045; 1333 Martinez Street Page 14 of 20 <br /> <br />K. Applicant shall either demonstrate the adequacy of the existing storm drain system to handle <br />the existing run-off from the drainage basin as well as run-off from the project, upgrade the <br />system to handle said flow, or meter run-off from the site so that peak flows in the system <br />do not change. <br /> <br />L. Applicant shall conform to City standards. The drive aisle and parking spaces must be <br />revised to meet City standards prior to issuance of a building permit. <br /> <br />M. Applicant shall locate all utilities serving the site underground. <br /> <br />N. Applicant shall comply with the regulations and provisions contained in the City’s Grading <br />Ordinance, the City’s Storm Water Pollution Prevention Permit, and the National Pollutant <br />Discharge Elimination System (NPDES), to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. More <br />information may be found at www.cleanwaterprogram.org. <br /> <br />O. Applicant shall reduce storm water pollution by implementing the following pollution <br />source control measures: <br />1. Structures shall be designed to discourage the occurrence and entry of pests into <br />buildings, thus minimizing the need for pesticides. The trash area shall be separated <br />from the rest of the building by concrete or masonry walls so that pests that gain access <br />to the area are less likely to access the rest of the building. <br />2. All storm drains shall be marked “NO DUMPING, DRAINS TO BAY” <br />3. All on-site storm drains shall be inspected and, if necessary, cleaned at least twice a year <br />immediately prior to the rainy season. <br />4. Sidewalks and parking lots shall be swept regularly to minimize the accumulation of <br />litter and debris. Steam cleaning or low volume pressure washing may be performed <br />only after pre-cleaning using dry methods, spot cleaning and recovery in stained areas <br />and removal of all mobile pollutants. Debris resulting from pressure washing shall be <br />trapped and collected to prevent entry into the storm drain system. Wash water <br />containing any soap, cleaning agent or degreaser shall not be discharged to the storm <br />drain. <br />5. Interior floor drains and parking garage floor drains (if any) shall not be connected to the <br />storm drain system. <br />6. Air conditioning condensate shall be directed to landscaped areas. Any air conditioning <br />condensate that discharges to land without flowing to a storm drain may be subject to <br />the requirements of the State Water Resources Control Board’s (SWRCB) Statewide <br />General Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) for Discharges to Land with a Low <br />Threat to Water Quality. <br />7. Landscaping shall be designed to minimize irrigation and runoff, promote surface <br />infiltration where appropriate, and minimize the use of fertilizers and pesticides that can <br />contribute to storm water pollution. <br />8. Where feasible, landscaping shall be designed and operated to treat storm water runoff <br />by incorporating elements that collect, detain, and infiltrate runoff. In areas that provide <br />detention of water, plants that are tolerant of saturated soil conditions and prolonged <br />exposure to water shall be specified.
