These programs are paid for by developers through permitting fees. Different than the existing services, execution of the required NPDES Phase II Stormwater Management Plan is not exclusively related to new development, but a responsibility of the Town as the owner of a Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System, or MS4. Accordingly, monies to implement the program would come from the Town of Hillsborough's general fund, Orange County Planning and Inspections' Erosion Control Division is poised through its existing and related services, delegation and knowledge to efficiently and effectively implement the program to the benefit of all in the Neuse River Basin (Eno River) through a contract for services agreement. History.° In 1972, the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program was established under the authority of the Federal Clean Water Act, Phase I of the NPDES Stormwater program was established in 1990, It required NPDES permit coverage for municipalities that had populations of 100,000 or more. In North Carolina, there are six Phase I communities, Phase II of the NPDES Stormwater program was signed into law in December 1999, The Phase II program extends permit coverage to smaller (< 100,000 pop.) communities and public entities that own or operate a MS4, It requires them to apply and obtain an NPDES permit far stormwater discharges, The Town of Hillsborough is covered by Phase II. Permittees (i,e, Town of Hillsborough) are required at a minimum to develop, implement, and enforce a stormwater program designed to reduce the discharge of pollutants from the MS4 to the maximum extent practicable. The stormwater management program must include these six minimum control measures which are to be implemented in phases over afive-year period: 1. public education and outreach on stormwater impacts; 2. public involvement/participation; 3. illicit discharge detection and elimination; 4. construction site stormwater runoff control (Erosion Control); 5. post-construction stormwater management for new development and redevelopment; 6. pollution prevention/good housekeeping for municipal operations. Status: In order to meet its Phase II obligations, the Town of Hillsborough considered creation of a full-time position, However, discussions with the County indicated that it could be cost- effective for both parties to enter into a contract detailing the provision of Phase II services by the Erosion Control Division of the County's Planning and Inspections Department, The Erosion Control Division presently has the staff and knowledge to implement this stormwater program. The attached Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was executed on Jtane 7, 2005, This Memorandum of Agreement indicates the willingness of the Town and County to work cooperatively and provides the basis far the attached Interlocal Agreement. This Interlocal Agreement has recently been drafted by Town and County staff based on the final version of the Town's Phase II permit, which became effective on October 1, 2005. Execution of this Interlocal Agreement will provide the framework for the implementation of the aforementioned contractual services, FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Erosion Control Division is presently partially funded through user fees paid by developers requiring land-disturbing permits. The additional duties required to implement Hillsborough's NPDES program will be funded through payment to the County by the Town of Hillsborough as outlined in the Interlocal Agreement in Schedule A. For example, $37,000 in the first partial year through September 30, 2006, The Interlocal Agreement would, through a cost allocation program and special fund (possible escrow account or enterprise type fund), reimburse the Erosion Control Division of the Planning and Inspections Department far human resources, operating and capital expenses associated with the program's implementation, thereby reducing the County's general fund expenditures. The prescribed funding should be sufficient to both offset the additional staff time and cover equipment costs needed by the County to implement the program, Hillsborough's financial contributions will allow for some of each year's funding to accumulate with the intent by Year 4 of the program (FY 08-09) to augment and adjust staffing levels as necessary. Future years of the contract will continue to cover all program cost implementation as outlined in Schedule A of the Interlocal agreement. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board review, discuss, direct questions to staff, and consider approval of this Interlocal Agreement, ATTACHMENT 1 STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA NPDES PHASE II STORMWATER PERMTT AGREEMENT COUNTY OF ORANGE TOWN OF HII.LSBOROUGH MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT Y:~~ This Memorandum of Agreement is entered into this ~ day of , 200 by and between the Town of Hillsborough and Orange County.
