✔✔precipitation events which may result in failure of the properly |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


designed, located, implemented,
|\ |\ |\




and maintained BMPs or other structure/practices required by this
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


permit. Catastrophic precipitation conditions means any single
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


event of |\




significant total volume, or of increased intensity and shortened
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


duration, that exceeds normally expected or predicted
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


precipitation over the time |\ |\ |\




period that the disturbance is planned or is ongoing, as
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


determined by the Department. Catastrophic conditions could
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


also include tornadoes,
|\ |\




hurricanes, or other climatic conditions which could cause failure
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


due to winds or mechanical damage. Chronic precipitation is also
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


that series of
|\ |\




wet-weather conditions over a limited time-period which does not |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


provide any opportunity for emergency maintenance,
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


reinstallation, and |\




corrective actions and which equals or exceeds the volume of
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


normally expected or predicted precipitation for the time period
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\


that the disturbance
