Every year the Stormwater Management Department is mandated through our Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permit with the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to host an annual training for applicable department heads and municipal employees regarding pollution prevention and municipal good housekeeping. We offer this training virtually and in-person and you can complete it virtually by following the steps below. Our new permit requires that new full-time employees have to complete this training within 60 days of being hired. Part-time and seasonal employees need to complete the training within 30 days of being hired. This training is for municipal employees with the City of Muncie, the Muncie Sanitary District, Delaware County, the Town of Yorktown, and Ivy Tech Community College of Muncie.
Following this annual training, departments are also required to do annual onsite inspections with our Inspector to update their facility’s required documents that include your Standard Operating Procedures (SOP’s), Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan ( SWPPP’s), and your Spill, Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) documents. These documents have all of the information you need for preventing pollution, responding to spills, and properly disposing of cleanup materials. All documents are to be reviewed on an annual basis and updated with current contact information for each department.
We rely on your cooperation with our stormwater program to ensure that we are achieving compliance with all permit requirements. Spill prevention and good housekeeping protect our waterways and water quality. Thank you for your participation and assistance! If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to the Stormwater team listed below.
