1.4.3 Minimum Requirement 3 - Source Control
All known, available and reasonable source control BMPs shall be applied to all projects. Source control BMPs shall be selected, designed, and maintained according to Volume 6 of this manual. Structural and operational source control BMPs shall be identified in the stormwater site plan report and structural source control BMPs shall be shown on construction plans submitted for City review.
The intent of source control BMPs is to prevent stormwater from coming in contact with pollutants. They are a cost-effective means of reducing pollutants in stormwater, and, therefore, should be a first consideration in all projects.
