Glossary-39 July 2016 Chapter 1 – Introduction iii CITY OF LACEY 2016 STORMWATER DESIGN MANUAL Chapter 1 – Introduction 1.1 Background and Authority The City of Lacey 2016 Stormwater Design Manual (SDM) is a completely revised and updated replacement for the 2010 SDM. The 2016 SDM is based on the 2012 edition of the Washington State Department of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington (Ecology Manual, as amended December 2014). In creating the 2016 SDM, the City of Lacey Department of Public Works has edited and reorganized Ecology’s Manual for ease of use and local application. The reader is referred to the Ecology Manual for further background information and supporting details, if desired. The Manual is available on Ecology’s web site at: <www.ecy.wa.gov/programs/wq/stormwater/manual.html>. The City of Lacey is required to regulate stormwater discharges to the municipal stormwater system and to waters of the state, in compliance with the Western Washington Phase II National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Stormwater Permit (the Permit). Under the Permit, the city must establish and apply the minimum requirements specified in the Permit and provide design guidance for stormwater quality and quantity control for new development and redevelopment projects in Lacey. Through this manual, the city is complying with the Clean Water Act and the NPDES Municipal Stormwater Permit. Where requirements in this manual are also covered in any other law, ordinance, resolution, rule, or regulation of any kind the more restrictive law shall govern. This manual has been adopted by local ordinance and has force of law. Failure to comply may trigger administrative or enforcement action, and result in project delays, fines, or penalties. For the purposes of interpreting and using this manual, the words “shall,” “will,” and “must” are always mandatory; the word “should” is situation-specific and not mandatory but strongly encouraged; and “may” is situation-specific and permissive. The City of Lacey Stormwater Design Manual Administrator (SDM Administrator) is authorized to determine if situation-specific requirements are applicable to any particular project. The city’s SDM Administrator is also authorized to request information or to impose requirements beyond those specified in this manual, which may occur for various reasons including but not limited to: • To protect public safety, health, and welfare • To prevent flooding, erosion, endangerment to property, habitat destruction, or water quality degradation • To implement regulatory mandates such as a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) July 2016 Chapter 1 – Introduction 1-1 CITY OF LACEY 2016 STORMWATER DESIGN MANUAL • To protect uninterruptible services • To implement increases in requirements imposed by state or federal agencies or other pertinent factors • To clarify, correct, augment, or update information in this manual 1.2 Objective The objective of this manual is to provide guidance and requirements to control the quantity and quality of stormwater produced by new development and redevelopment, such that they comply with water quality standards and contribute to the protection of beneficial uses of the receiving waters. Water quality standards include: • Chapter 173-200 of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC), Water Quality Standards for Groundwaters of the State of Washington • Chapter 173-201A WAC, Water Quality Standards for Surface Waters of the State of Washington • Chapter 173-204 WAC, Sediment Management Standards This manual establishes the minimum “Core Requirements” for stormwater control and site development requirements for all new development and redevelopment in the city and applies to all sites as detailed in Chapter 2 – Core Requirements for New Development and Redevelopment, and Chapter 3 – Stormwater Submittals. The core requirements outlined
