The City can work with contractors to limit the spread of invasi implementing best practices for pumping equipment. For example, used in City water bodies for a pond clean out project or dewate aware of the potential presence of Zebra Mussels in the water bo used the equipment and take the necessary steps to decontaminate Complementing pollution prevention is performing routine maintenance of existing stormwater treatment and drainage systems. As sediment builds up capacity of drainage systems and the pollutant removal capabilities of ponds by reducing dead storage volume (i.e., the volume below the outlet elevation). Sediment from eros also significantly reduce infiltration rates in basins or BMPs designed for volume control and/or groundwater recharge. Extending the life of these facilities involves source control and elimination of material that causes the problem, and maintenance of the systems on a regular basis. Better construction methods and maintenance efforts will sediment at the source, and an effective street sweeping program will also have a positive impact.

The first sweep shall be as soon as practical in the spring. Storm water sensitive areas are priority and swept first throughout the year. 5 The City prohibits the use of coal tar-based sealer on asphalt driveways and parking lots within the City to prevent Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) present in coal tar from contaminated stormwater runoff a City Code Chapter 410). downstream receiving water bodies ( 6 Appropriate City staff shall have training and equipment available to deal wi small spills of hazardous material on City property.
