Dear Mr. James:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the Draft US-95 EIS. Clark County Regional Flood Control District is named as the lead agency for the Las Vegas Valley National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) storm water permit. The NPDES permit has been issued to CJark County, NDOT, and the cities of Las Vegas, North Las Vegas and Henderson. On behalf of the Las Vegas Valley NPDES co- permittees I offer the following comments:
During the construction phase, control measures for PM 10 and storm water quality should compliment each other. Urban runoff from the Las Vegas Valley is a pollutant contributor to the Las Vegas Wash. Furthermore, the Las Vegas Valley is designated as a “serious” non-attainment area for PMlO and the U.S. EPA has determined that this constitutes a significant public health hazard. In an effort to mitigate storm water runoff from construction sites, a general storm water permit is required for construction activities associated with industrial or construction activities disturbing 5 or more acres. A site specific Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWP3) that describes how the applicant intends to control runoff from the Construction site should be prepared. The SWP3 should include the following:
1. The total area of land surface to be disturbed and the total area of the project site in acres.
2. Identify the short and long term Storm water BMP’s (structural and non- structural).
3. The relationship between Air Quality particulate matter Best Management Practices (BMP’s) and Storm water Management BMP’s (Las Vegas Valley 208 recommendation).

Mr. Daryl James July 29, 1999 Page 2
4. The dust generating operation(s) and/or activities to be carried-out on-site and off-site and the actual and potential sources of on-site and off-site fugitive dust emissions.
5. A site plan showing the location of grading and/or earth moving activities, the location of ingresdegress points, and the location of on-site and off- site parking, staging, or storage areas (including storage piles) for equipment, supplies, andor trailers.
6. No oil or other chemicals or suppressants which may adversely impact groundwater quality by means of percolation or Storm water runoff shall be used for dust suppression purposes.
Please contact me should you have any questions regarding these comments.
Sincerely,
Assistant General Manager
