EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to adopt a new ordinance to be called the Pollution Control and Prevention
Ordinance, repealing and replacing Ordinance No. 87-79, regarding the Transportation and
Disposal of Sludge and repealing Resolution No. 88-311 regarding fees for sludge transportation
and disposal permits.
OBJECTIVE: To provide updates, clarifications, and additional environmental protection through the
adoption of the proposed ordinance.
CONSIDERATIONS: On May 14, 2019, the Board of County Commissioners unanimously approved
Item 11B, advertising a public hearing to consider the adoption of the proposed ordinance.
Collier County has a Phase II National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Permit. Element Three of Collier County’s NPDES MS4 permit
requires a “regulatory mechanism for the detection and elimination of non -stormwater discharges.” The
January 2015 audit report (Attachment 1) of Collier County’s NPDES MS4 program by the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) indicated that the existing ordinances used to regulate
discharges are insufficient and requires Collier County to “review existing ordinance and/or develop a
new ordinance which defines and prohibits illicit discharge to the MS4.”
Ordinance No. 87-79 (Attachment 2), Transportation and Disposal of Sludge was adopted to regulate the
transportation and disposal of sludge to ensure that such activities do not endanger public health or the
quality of the waters of the County. In the 32 years since Ordinance No. 87-79 was adopted; definitions,
standards, and federal and state regulations have changed, making the current ordinance outdated and
redundant in some instances. Current regulations, practices, and the goa ls of the Pollution Control
Program; and protect Collier County’s natural resources.
The proposed ordinance includes:
• Additional and updated definitions;
• Updated laws and regulations;
• Specific language prohibiting illicit discharges;
• Requirements for reporting and remediating discharges of pollutants;
• Emphasis on pollution prevention through public outreach/education and best management
practices; and
• Provisions for enforcement.
Resolution 88-311 (Attachment 3) addressing fees associated with sludge transportation licenses and
disposal permits will be repealed.
The proposed ordinance is Attachment 4.
During the April 23, 2019 meeting, the Board requested staff conduct additional industry-specific
outreach. Staff contacted the specified community members who relayed their concerns. Both requested
changes to ordinance language were made. There were no material changes, and the intent of the
ordinance remains the same.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for the Pollution Control program comes from a dedicated milage
established by a countywide referendum in 1988 and an ordinance in 1989. Because of the funding
authority, that Ordinance is not proposed for repeal and will be in addition to the proposed ordinance.

Examples of potential costs to customers are listed in Attachment 5. Costs associated with environmental
impacts such as remediation can vary widely based on the discharged product, source, quantity released,
and impacted media (e.g., soil, groundwater, surface water). Pollutant source tracking will primarily be
accomplished by Pollution Control should funding become available, however, customers who
continuously fail to meet permit requirements or implement best management practices are expected to be
responsible for reasonable costs associated with the impacts. None of Table I (Attachment 5) potential
costs are intended to be punitive or revenue generating; they are related to customer’s impacts on the
environment.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: This action is consistent with the goals and objectives of
Collier County’s Growth Management Plan Conservation and Coastal Management Element and the
Natural Groundwater Aquifer Recharge Sub-Element; the Watershed Management Plan; and the
Floodplain Management Plan.
DEVELOPMENT SERVICES ADVISORY COMMITTEE (DSAC) RECOMMENDATION: The
proposed ordinance was unanimously approved by the Development Services Advisory Committee
(DSAC) on May 2, 2018, with a recommendation that the following language be added to Article VI,
Section 2: “Pre-existing residential permitted properties shall not be required to implement structural
BMPs to existing drainage structures.” Keeping in mind that Article VI, Section 2 only applies if permit
requirements are not being met or reasonable best management practices (BMPs) are not being
implemented, it is staff’s recommendation to leave the language as written. If DSAC’s proposed language
were included in the ordinance, all existing residential developments would be exempt from any potential
requirements to implement any structural pollution prevention BMPs. This will prevent Collier County
from being able to address point source pollution flowing into our stormwater system while still being
required to meet state-mandated water quality standards associated with a Basin Management Action
Plan.
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY COUNCIL (EAC) RECOMMENDATION: The proposed
ordinance was unanimously approved by the Collier County Planning Commission sitting as the
Environmental Advisory Committee on March 7, 2019. The Planning Commission heard the ordinance
over two meetings and made refinements to the Ordinance.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires a majority
vote for Board approval. (HFAC)
RECOMMENDATION: To adopt a new ordinance to be called the Pollution Control and Prevention
Ordinance, repealing and replacing Ordinance No. 87-79, regarding the Transportation and Disposal of
Sludge and repealing Resolution No. 88-311 regarding fees for sludge transportation and disposal
permits.

Subject: Collier County Phase II Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4)
FLR04E037 Cycle 3 Year 1 Audit Report
Dear Mr. Ochs:
An audit of Collier County Phase II MS4 Stormwater Management Program (SWMP) elements was
conducted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (Department), on January 22, 2014
under the State’s federally approved National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
stormwater program.
Based on the findings in the audit, the Department has determined that Collier County has satisfied
SWMP elements as required by the Generic Permit for Discharge of Stormwater from Phase II Municipal
Separate Storm Sewer Systems (Rule 62-621.300(7)(a), F.A.C.) and as specified in your approved Notice
of Intent (NOI) for coverage under the generic permit. Please note that the findings in the report are
limited to the specific elements of the SWMP that were reviewed during the Audit.
The Department has summarized the associated Required Improvements and Recommendations in the
table below. Anything that is not listed is considered to be sufficient based on the documentation shown
during the audit.

Element 3 –
Illicit
Discharge
Informing businesses
of hazards associated
with illegal discharges
The County’s outreach program currently addresses Small
Quantity Generators only. The Department suggested to
use the same educational information and insert the
material into the business license application package. This
way the County will address all types of businesses that
have the potential of illegal discharge and improper
disposal of waste.
Element 4 –
Construction
Site Runoff
Regulatory
mechanism for
construction site
runoff
The County should reference the policy that is applicable to
requiring site plans and controls on construction sites.
Element 6 -
Municipal
Pollution
Prevention and
Good
Housekeeping
Preventing pollutant
runoff from MS4
operator activities
The Department suggests the addition of an inspection and
maintenance program for all Municipally own facilities.
Responses to the required improvements above, including a short plan for implementation, are due within
30 days of receipt of this letter. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at (850)-
