Non-Priority Project Water Quality Plan (NPP)
The Orange County Stormwater Program has developed this Non-Priority Project Water Quality Plan
(NPP) for new development / significant redevelopment projects that do not meet the criteria for Priority
Projects as defined within the County’s Model Water Quality Management Plan (see Model WQMP
Sections 1.3 and 1.4) but that qualify as Non-Priority Projects as defined in the Drainage Area
Management Plan (DAMP). These projects are required under the Santa Ana Regional Board MS4 Permit
(North Orange County Permit) to “document, via a WQMP or similar mechanism, site design, source
control and any other BMPs which may or may not include treatment control BMPs”. There is no similar
requirement under the San Diego Regional Board MS4 Permit (South Orange County). This plan covers
both private and public agency projects that qualify as Non-Priority Projects.
Qualifying Non-Priority Projects are projects that do not fall under one of the Priority Project Categories
defined within the Model WQMP but meet one of the following conditions:
▪ Require discretionary action that will include a precise plan of development, except for those
projects exempted by the Water Quality Ordinance (as applicable); or
▪ Require issuance of a non-residential plumbing permit for hazardous pipelines as defined in the
County or local Water Quality / Stormwater Ordinance. Non-residential plumbing projects that do
not pose a potential threat to public safety do not require a WQMP for approval.
A “discretionary action” under CEQA is defined as “an activity which requires the public agency to
exercise judgment in deciding whether to approve or disapprove the particular activity, as distinguished
from situations where the public agency merely has to determine whether there has been conformity
with applicable ordinances or other laws.” (California Public Resources Code § 21080(a); CEQA
Guidelines § 15357). Examples of discretionary actions include: feature plans, area plans, use permits,
site development permits and special use permits. “Ministerial actions” under CEQA are those where
little or no judgment or deliberation by a Permittee is required or possible. Generally, the only example
of a ministerial approval action that would qualify as a Non-Priority Project would be a project that
requires the issuance of a Non-Residential Plumbing Permit.
All other projects and activities that only require a ministerial grading or building permit for which the
Permittee has no discretion to approve do not fall under the requirements of this new development
program, with the exception of projects that require a Non-Residential Plumbing Permit.
This plan is provided for summarizing basic project information and stormwater Best Management
Practices that are planned for controlling discharges of pollutants from proposed Non-Priority Projects
and identify applicable source conrol BMPs, site design features, and determine BMP maintenance
requirements. Non-Priority Project proponents are required to complete the plan for local jurisdiction
review and approval. Applicable sections of the Technical Guidance Document are referenced for
assistance with completing each NPP section. All Non-Priority Project Water Quality Plans must be in
compliance with the Local Implementation Plan developed by each local agency. The local jurisdiction
may request additional information necessary for local Non-Priority Project review and approval.

Source Control BMP Implementation
Please describe implementation frequency and the party responsible for implementation of each Source
Control BMP.
The property owner is responsible for updating educational materials and distributing to contractors and
service people as necessary. The materials are available from
http://www.ocwatersheds.com/documents/bmp/residentialactivities .
Other BMPs
Other BMPs or devices incorporated to remove pollutants from runoff leaving the project site, which may
or may not include Treatment Control BMPs (see Technical Guidance Document Section 4.6), are not
required for Non-Priority Projects though may be appropriate under certain conditions. Please provide
details on any other BMPs selected for this project.
The City of Newport Beach is requiring the construction of a bottomless trench drain on the site at the end of
the driveway and a bio-filtration planter on the southeast side of the proposed residence. The property owner
is also responsible for the implementation and maintenance of BMPs (bio-iltration planter and bottomless
trench drain)

IV. 1 Project Performance Criteria
Size LID, Runoff Control, and Treatment Control BMPs Using 85th Percentile Design Storm
Standard. Any LID, Runoff Control, or Treatment Control BMP (or suite of BMPs) implemented
to comply with WQHP requirements shall be sized, designed, and managed to infiltrate, retain, or
treat, at a minimum, the runoff produced by the 85th percentile 24-hour storm event for volume-
based BMPs, or two times the 85th percentile 1-hour storm event for flow-based BMPs..
Use LID Approach to Retain Design Storm Runoff Volume On-Site. The development shall
implement an LID approach to stormwater management that will retain on-site (by means of
infiltration, evapotranspiration, or harvesting for later on-site use) the runoff volume produced by
the 85th percentile 24-hour design storm (see Subsection (C) (4) of this section), to the extent
appropriate and feasible.

with infiltration BMPs.
Bottomless Trench Drain:
The soils on the project site are HSG A and are feasible for infiltration BMPs. Beach Sands
typically have an infiltration rate of between 5 and 20 inches per hour. For the purposes of this
report 5 in/hr will be used for the design infiltration rate.
