Permit Information Provide the NPDES ID (i.e., NOI tracking number) assigned to the facility for which this DMR is being submitted. Indicate your reason(s) for submitting this DMR by checking all boxes that apply. The reasons for submission are defined as follows: Submitting monitoring data: For each storm sampled, submit one DMR form with data for all discharge points sampled. Select this reason even if you only have monitoring data for some of your discharge points (i.e., some discharge points did not discharge). If you select this reason you are required to complete all Sections of the form. Reporting no discharge for all discharge points for this monitoring period: Indicates that there were no discharges from all discharge points during this monitoring period. If you select this reason you are only required to complete Sections A, B, C, D, E.1, and G. Reporting that your site status has changed to inactive and unstaffed and there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater: Indicates that your facility is currently inactive and unstaffed and there are no industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater (See Part 4.2.1.3 of the permit for more information). If you select this reason you are only required to complete Sections A, B, C, D, and F.4 (include date of status change in comment field). Reporting that your site status has changed from inactive to active and/or there are industrial materials or activities exposed to stormwater: Indicates that your facility is currently active (See Part 4.2.1.3 of the permit for more information). If you select this reason you are required to complete all Sections of the form and include date of status change in the comment field in Section F.4.

Section C. Facility Operator Information. Provide the legal name of the person, firm, public organization, or any other entity that operates the facility for which this DMR is being submitted. An operator of a facility is the legal entity that controls the operation of the facility. Refer to Appendix A of the permit for the definition of “operator”. Provide the operator’s mailing address, phone number, and e-mail. The operator information in this Section should match the operator information provided on your NOI form. Provide the name, organization, phone number, an e-mail address for the person who prepared this DMR form. Section D. Facility Information Enter the official or legal name and complete street address, including city, state, ZIP code, and county or similar government subdivision of the facility. If the facility lacks a street address, indicate the general location of the facility (e.g., Intersection of State Highways 61 and 34). Complete facility information must be provided for permit coverage to be granted. The facility information in this Section should match the facility information provided on your NOI form. Section E. Discharge Information. Indicate the appropriate monitoring period (Quarter 1, 2, 3, or 4) covered by the DMR. “Alternative” monitoring periods can apply to facilities located in arid and semi-arid climates, or in areas subject to snow or prolonged freezing. To use alternative monitoring periods, you must provide a revised monitoring schedule here. If using alternative monitoring periods, identify the first day of the monitoring period through the last day of the monitoring period for each of the four periods. The dates should be displayed as month (Mo) / day (Day). See Parts 4.1.6 and 4.1.7 of the permit for more information. If you are submitting benchmark monitoring data, identify if your facility is required to collect benchmark samples for one or more hardness-dependent metals (i.e., cadmium, lead, nickel, silver, and zinc). If you select “yes” to this question provide the hardness level of the receiving water (in mg/L)). If you select “no” to this question, you must identify if your facility discharges into any saltwater receiving waters.

Section F. Monitoring Information For the reported monitoring event indicate whether the discharge was from a rainfall or snowmelt event. If you select “rainfall” then indicate the duration (in hours) of the rainfall event, rainfall total (in inches) for that rainfall event, and time (in days) since the previous measurable storm event in line items 2.a-c. For both rainfall and snowmelt monitoring, you must identify the date of collection for the monitoring event in column 3.i. of the table. If the discharge occurs during a period of both rainfall and snowmelt, check both the rainfall and snowmelt boxes and report the appropriate rainfall information in item 2.a-c. To report multiple monitoring events in the same reporting period, copy this form and enter each monitoring event separately with data for all discharge points sampled. Identify all the discharge points from your facility that discharge stormwater. Each discharge point must be assigned a unique 3-digit number (e.g., 001, 002, 003), and should match the discharge points identified on your NOI form. If any discharge points are substantially identical, check the box in 3.b and identify the discharge point that the discharge point in 3.a is substantially identical to. In 3.d – k, you only need to provide benchmark monitoring data for one of the discharge points if it is substantially identical. For any discharge point for which there was no discharge during the monitoring period, check the box in 3.c. In 3.d, identify the type of monitoring using the specified codes, in parentheses, below: (IM) – Indicator monitoring (BM) – Benchmark monitoring (ELG) – Annual effluent limitations guidelines monitoring; (S/T) – State- or Tribal-specific monitoring; (I) – Impaired waters monitoring; or (O) – Other monitoring as required by EPA. In 3.e, enter each “parameter” (or “pollutant”) monitored. For BM and ELG monitoring, use the same parameter name as in Part 8 of the permit. In 3.f., enter a sample measurement value for each parameter analyzed and required to be reported. Enter “ND” (i.e., not detected) for any sample results below the method detection limit or “BQL” (i.e., below quantitation limit) for sample results above the detection limit but below the quantitation limit. In 3.g., enter the units for sample measurement values (i.e., “mg/L” for milligrams per liter) for each parameter analyzed and required to be reported. For monitoring results reported as ND or BQL this space will be left blank and the units will be reported in Column 3.f. 3.h. must be completed for any monitoring results reported as ND or BQL in the “Quality or Concentration” column. For ND, report the laboratory detection level and units in this column. For BQL, report the laboratory quantitation limit and units in this column. In 3.i. identify the sampling date for each parameter monitoring result reported on this form. 3.j. Exceedance solely attributable to natural background pollutant levels: Check box if following the first 4 quarters of benchmark monitoring (or sooner if the exceedance is triggered by less than 4 quarters of data) you have determined that the exceedance of the benchmark is attributable solely to the presence of that pollutant in the natural background for that discharge point and any substantially identical discharge points, or for impaired waters

monitoring, the presence of the pollutant is caused solely by natural background, provided that all of the conditions in Part 5.2.6.1 are met. 3.k Exceedance due to run-on: Check box if you can demonstrate and obtain EPA agreement that run-on from a neighboring source (e.g., a source external to your facility) is the cause of the exceedance, provided that the conditions in Part 5.2.6.2 are met. 3.l. Exceedance due to an abnormal event: Check box if one single sampling event is abnormal and you have immediately documented per Part 5.3 that the single event was abnormal and met all other conditions in Part 5.2.6.3. 3.m. Exceedance but discharge does not result in any exceedance of water quality standards per Part 5.2.6.5: Check box if you can demonstrate through an analysis that an exceedance triggering AIM requirements does not result in any exceedance of applicable water quality standards, provided that all the conditions in Part 5.2.6.5 are met. 3.n Aluminum exceedance demonstrated to not result in an exceedance of your facility-specific criteria per Part 5.2.6.4.a: Check box if you can demonstrate through an analysis that an aluminum exceedance does not result in an exceedance of your facility-specific criteria using the national recommended water quality criteria in-lieu of the applicable MSGP benchmark threshold. 3.o Copper exceedance demonstrated to not result in an exceedance of your facility-specific criteria per Part 5.2.6.4.b: Check box if you can demonstrate through an analysis that a copper exceedance does not result in an exceedance of your facility-specific criteria using the national recommended water quality criteria in-lieu of the applicable MSGP benchmark threshold. Where violations of the permit requirements are reported, include a brief explanation to describe the cause and corrective actions taken, and reference each violation by date. Also, this section should include any additional comments such as are required when changing site status from inactive and unstaffed to active or vice versa. Attach additional pages if you need more space. Attach additional copies of Section F as necessary to address all discharge points and parameters. Section G. Certification Information DMRs must be signed by a person described below, or by a duly authorized representative of that person. For a corporation: By a responsible corporate officer. For the purpose of this Section, a responsible corporate officer means: (i) a president, secretary, treasurer, or vice-president of the corporation in charge of a principal business function, or any other person who performs similar policy- or decision-making functions for the corporation, or (ii) the manager of one or more manufacturing, production, or operating facilities, provided, the manager is authorized to make management decisions which govern the operation of the regulated facility including having the explicit or implicit duty of making major capital investment recommendations, and initiating and directing other comprehensive measures to assure long-term environmental compliance with environmental laws and regulations; the manager can ensure that the necessary systems are established or actions taken to gather complete and accurate information for permit application requirements; and where authority to sign documents has been assigned or delegated
