Engineering Services Committee Meeting

319(h) Grant_ Development of 9-Element Watershed Management Plan
Department:Engineering
Presenter:Abie L. Ladson - Director
Caption:Approve and authorize the Engineering Department (AED) to
accept and receive federal financial assistance through Section
319(h) Nonpoint Source Implication Grant Program. Also, grant
authorization permitting the Augusta, GA’s Mayor to sign all
documentation as requested by the AED.
Background:The Clean Water Act Section 319(h) Water Quality Grant Funds
support activities to identify and implement projects for reduction
of prioritized risks and concerns in the community such as source
assessment and control of pollutant of interest load within state
listed impaired water bodies. During 2016, AED in partnering
with Phinizy Center for Water Sciences (PCWS) submitted two
(2) separate applications to seek federal funds for various
activities associated with surface water quality improvement
program in Rocky Creek Watershed. Georgia Environmental
Protection Division (EPD) evaluated and recommended both
applications to US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for
funding. However, one of the pre-requisite for EPA to fund 319(h)
grant is development of 9-Element Watershed Restoration Plan (if
not already in place). There is no existing watershed restoration
plan for Rocky Creek Watershed and it needs to be developed.
Analysis:Development of 9-Element Watershed Management Plan for
selected watersheds in Savannah River Basin is critical for
receiving future 319 grants in addition to already approved two
FY-16 grants. PCWS under existing MOU is collaborating in
these grants and will develop this plan. Four (4) of Augusta creeks
are listed as impaired waterbodies and do not support their
designated use. The 319 Grants allow AED to optimize Augusta
MS4 NPDES Stormwater Management Program. There are
minimum matching funds required. AED will meet this need
primarily by offering in-kind services such as staff time. AED will
also utilize $5,000 of its stormwater services contractual program. Cover Memo
Item # 1
Financial Impact:By accepting this Grant, AED will receive $40,000 in federal
funds. AED will provide $10,226 matching non-federal funds
[$5,226 in-kind, and $5,000 from Stormwater Services
Contractual Program].
Alternatives:1). Approve and authorize the Engineering Department (AED) to
accept and receive federal financial assistance through Section
319(h) Nonpoint Source Implication Grant Program. Also, grant
authorization permitting the Augusta, GA’s Mayor to sign all
documentation as requested by the AED. 2). Do not approve and
drop the 319(h) FY-16 funding acceptance for the approved two
(2) grants.
Recommendation:Approve Alternative Number One.

3. Project Goals:
The goal of this project is for Augusta-Richmond County to develop a nine-element watershed
management plan (WMP) for the Augusta Canal (HUC-12 #030601060601) / Butler Creek
(HUC-12 #030601060602) / Beaverdam Ditch (HUC-12 #030601060607) watersheds in the
Savannah River Basin. The WMP will address the impaired streams in the watershed that are not
supporting their designated uses on the 2014 Georgia 305(b)/303(d) List of Waters, and target
Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL) established by Georgia Environmental Protection
Division (EPD) for the impairments.
Following USEPA and GAEPD guidelines for watershed planning, the WMP development
process will assess current best management practices (BMPs) to determine whether they have
been effective in reducing the pollutants. Local stakeholders, governments and other
Attachment number 1 \nPage 1 of 14
Item # 1

2
organizations will be engaged/re-engaged as watershed partners. Issues of concern and land-use
data will be updated and evaluated. Water quality data will be collected and analyzed. Pollutant
load limits will be quantified and compared to required TMDLs and load reductions.
Management practices specifically designed to achieve the explicit load allocations will be
recommended and implementation milestones will be targeted. A long-term monitoring plan will
be designed. STEPL MODEL USEPA or Region V Model, along with previous management
efforts, will be applied to estimate load reduction expectations from BMPs. Final strategies for
the WMP will be developed. Once Georgia EPD approves the WMP, watershed partners will be
in a position to implement recommended BMPs. Strong and diversely broad partnerships formed
within the watershed will enable stakeholders to achieve the goals set in the plan.
4. Project Background:
The GAEPD’s 2014 Integrated 305(b)/303(d) List of Waters identifies four stream segments in
the three HUC-12 watersheds as not meeting water quality standards for fecal coliform, three for
biota fish, and two for biota macroinvertebrates:

According to the plans and/or the TMDLs, possible non-point sources (NPS) that contribute to
fecal coliform bacteria impairment include stormwater runoff from surrounding urban land uses;
undetected septic or sewer leakage; and possible wildlife. The following recommendations were
made to reduce non-point source (NPS) pollutant loads of bacteria in Butler Creek (Phinizy
Ditch to Savannah River, Augusta) by 98%, in Rocky Creek by 80% and in Reed Creek by 75%
(2005 TMDL, pages v and 33) and in Butler Creek (Boardmans Pond to Phinizy Ditch (formerly
to SR 56)) by 49% (2016 DRAFT TMDL pages vi and 25):
Septic tank survey to determine the number, age and functionality of the septic tanks
Additional proactive measures to prevent leaks and spills from the sanitary sewer system
Educational programs in the curricula of local schools
Initiate a public educational campaign in the form of television, radio and print
announcements and advertisements
Adopt the Georgia Stormwater Management Manual as a policy for local development in
regulating stormwater flow in developing areas of the watershed
Manage stormwater runoff through methods like erosion control and the establishment of
green spaces, park lands, and stream buffers
Consistent water quality monitoring tied by school groups, concerned citizen groups, or
County officials.
Biota Impacted
According to the TMDL, a healthy aquatic ecosystem requires a healthy habitat. The possible
non-point sources (NPS) of sediment that may contribute to biota impacted macroinvertebrate
and fish impairment are eroded soils from timber harvesting; cropland and livestock grazing;
mining sites; unpaved roads; and urban land disturbance and impervious surfaces. The TMDL
recommended that there be no net increase in sediment delivered to the impaired stream
segments, so that these streams will recover over time. The following recommendations were
made in the TMDL to control current non-point sources (NPS) of sediment entering Rae’s Creek
and both segments of Rocky Creek in order to maintain and/or reduce the total allowable
sediment loads at current levels (2016 DRAFT TMDL pages viii and 45):
Implementation of Georgia’s Best Management Practices for Forestry (GFC, 2009);
Implementation of Best Management Practices for Georgia Agriculture (GSWCC, 2013)
and Adoption of NRCS Conservation Practices for agriculture;
Adherence to the Surface Mining Land Use Plan prepared as part of the Surface Mining
Permit Application;
Implementation of the Georgia Better Back Roads Field Manual (GA RCDC, 2009) and
Attachment number 1 \nPage 3 of 14

adoption of additional practices for proper unpaved road maintenance;
Implementation of individual Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plans for land
disturbing activities; and application of the Manual for Erosion and Sediment Control in
Georgia (GSWCC, 2014); and
Implementation of the Georgia Stormwater Management Manual (ARC, 2001) to
facilitate prevention and mitigation of stream bank erosion due to increased stream flow
and velocities caused by urban runoff through structural storm water BMP installation.
In addition, the TMDL states that the most common cause of low IBI (fish) and MMI (benthic
macroinvertebrates) scores is the lack of in-stream habitat due to stream sedimentation. Habitat
and aquatic communities can be slow to respond to changes in sediment loading, which is why
assessment and monitoring must continue to gauge whether BMP implementations have
improved stream habitats and water quality, representing an indirect measurement of the TMDL.
5. Project Activities:
Project Activity: Develop a watershed-based plan that includes water quality monitoring and
existing water/land use data and education and outreach in the form of establishing an advisory
committee, hosting public meetings, updating a website, identifying landowners for BMP cost-
share projects, localizing need for urban BMPs, and distributing educational materials.

thereafter. This is also to approve a new lighting tax district for
the 52 lots associated with above roads. Funding is available in the
