===Performance Expectation===
Storm water on maintenance lots shall be protected from salt contamination.

===Performance Measure===
All salt must be covered and stored to prevent contact with rain or rain runoff.

===Acceptable Solutions===
'''1.''' Salt will be under cover before any precipitation comes in contact with the material.

'''2.''' Any salt outside after a snow or ice event has to be cleaned up and returned to the covered area.

===Performance Expectation===
Protect salt from contact with storm water

===Performance Measure===
Conduct visual inspection of the storage areas periodically to ensure the salt is kept out of the elements. Maintain the buildings and covers to prevent moisture from coming in contact with the salt.

===Acceptable Solutions===

'''1.''' Discontinue salt bays that do not protect the salt from the elements – construct fabric buildings, domes, tents or other approved buildings.

'''2.''' Salt bays still in use shall be maintained in good condition with tarp / door system to protect the material from contact with rainwater and keep salt back away from rain. All mixing pads must be impervious to allow easy cleanup after an event.

'''3.''' Re-contour surrounding terrain and direct storm water away from salt storage or relocate salt storage structures if storm water runoff cannot be directed away from structure.

===Performance Expectation===
Vehicle and equipment washing must be done where the water can be collected and properly treated prior to release to the environment or waters of the state.

===Performance Measure===
Wash equipment only where the resulting wash water can be contained or treated.

===Acceptable Solutions===

'''1.''' Drive vehicles/equipment to MoDOT lots with appropriate collection systems to wash them.

'''2.''' Allow rural facilities to wash vehicles/equipment at commercial truck washes.

'''3.''' Covered wash bay with sewer connection or tank system.

'''4.''' Install an onsite treatment system. This would require a discharge permit.

'''5.''' Construct same for rural facilities and pipe waste water to a holding tank. Wastewater must be removed on a regular basis and transported to nearest public sanitary sewer system. Solids will need to be disposed of at a permitted sanitary landfill. One option could include recirculate the wash water for gross washing followed by clean power wash. All material must be collected.

'''6.''' Construct covered wash bay with an oil/water separator and connect to public sanitary sewer system where available and allow rural facilities to use approved MoDOT washing facilities or local commercial wash facilities.

'''7.''' Install a zero discharge recirculation system for washing trucks.

'''Note:''' Do not discharge to a sewer without notifying the public waste treatment facility.

===Performance Expectation===
Storm water from maintenance facilities needs to be controlled to prevent aggregate, silt and sediment from being washed off the property into ditches and waterways.

===Performance Measure===
Inspect all areas on the maintenance lot where storm water potentially leaves the facility and develop and implement a plan to control the runoff.

===Acceptable Solutions===

'''1.''' Evaluate problem and implement facility improvements to keep silt, rock, aggregate and other materials on the lot at locations where storm water flows off-site. For example: install an aggregate berm that allows storm water to flow through, but contain aggregate material from migrating offsite. If this is the chosen option, these structures must be constructed in such manner that they do not retain water, but will catch sediment and can be maintained. Use mixture of fines and course material that will slow down the storm water for material to settle.

'''2.''' Install grass buffers that are sufficient to catch material and filter storm water runoff. Install so they can be maintained.

===Performance Expectation===
Keep all snow control chemicals (brine, beet juice (Geomelt) and calcium chloride) from entering waterways. Though not required by law, a release of the material to the environment would be regulated and could result in a major cleanup expense.

===Performance Measure===
Place all storage tanks, pumps and plumbing inside watertight secondary containment. Check tanks and pumps for integrity.

===Acceptable Solutions===

'''1.''' Berm of clay, concrete, synthetic liner or impervious material with drainpipe and closed lockable valve.

===Performance Expectation===
Ensure that all the materials are usable and do not become “waste”, which would create an environmental liability.

===Performance Measure===
Identify unusable materials and chemicals and contact your district environmental point person and environmental specialist for proper handling or disposal. Contact your district environmental specialist to assist with materials that cannot or will not be used at a
MoDOT facility.

===Acceptable Solutions===

'''1.''' Control Inventory – order only one to two years worth of materials.

'''2.''' All containers storing unknown material should be sampled and characterized for proper handling and disposal by an environmental specialist.

'''3.''' If usable material (chemicals, paints, etc.) cannot be used at a lot, it should be shared with or given to another MoDOT facility that can utilize the materials.

'''4.''' All known or unknown materials not currently used (chemicals, paints, etc.), which cannot be used by other MoDOT facilities or that are out-of-date and no longer usable, must be disposed of at a permitted hazardous waste disposal facility (contact your district environmental specialist for assistance).

'''5.''' Do not move hazardous waste to another location (contact your district environmental specialist for assistance).

'''Note:''' Do not dump any product on the lot to dispose of the material. Refer to the MoDOT “Environmental Standard Operating Procedures for Sale of MoDOT Property” for guidance when selling excess materials or chemicals.

===Performance Expectation===
Facilities with floor drains in the maintenance bays that are not plumbed to a public sewage system shall be closed to prevent water from entering the environment or corrected with a connection to an approved alternative.

===Performance Measure===
All systems not connected to an approved holding tank or public sewage system must be closed.

===Acceptable Solutions===

'''1.''' Connect all floor drains to an oil / water separator and public sanitary sewer system where possible. For facilities where floor drains are not connected to a public sanitary sewer system, the facility must plug, seal or otherwise prevent discharge from the floor drains.

'''2.''' Connect floor drains to a holding tank and have contents removed by waste hauler.

'''3.''' An oil/water separator can be used as a holding tank or prior to a holding tank.

===Performance Measure===

Perform routine inspections of portable tanks to identify problem areas. Maintain training to keep in compliance with SPCC regulations. 

===Requirements===
