Log Yard Industrial Stormwater General Permit Support (ISGP), Hoquiam, WA

Aspect assisted a small, partially paved log yard respond to a Clean Water Act citizen’s suit. After investigating the fecal coliform monitoring requirement, we determined that Ecology erred in requiring additional monitoring and successfully worked with Ecology to eliminate the requirement. As a component of settling the lawsuit, Aspect updated the SWPPP, performed employee training, recommended operational and structural BMPs, and participated in Consent Decree negotiations.
