(b) Targeted non-agriculturalperformance standardspromulgated in rules by theW isconsin D epartment of N aturalResources under §N R 151.004,W is.A dm.C ode.

14.62 FINDINGS OF FACT. TheCommon C ouncilfindsthat uncontrolled,post-construction runoffhasa significant impact upon waterresourcesandthe health, safety, and general welfare of thecommunityand diminishesthepublic enjoymentand use of natural resources. Specifically,uncontrolledpost-construction runoff can:

(1) D egrade physical stream habitat byincreasingstream bankerosion,increasingstreambed scour, diminishinggroundwaterrecharge,diminishing streambase flow s and increasing streamtemperature.

(2) D iminish the capacity of lakes andstreams to support fish, aquatic life,recreational and water supply uses byincreasing pollutant loading of sediment,suspended solids,nutrients,heavymetals,bacteria, pathogens, and other urbanpollutants.

(3) A lter wetland communitiesbychangingwetland hydrology and by increasingpollutant loads.

(4) Reduce the qualityof groundwater byincreasingpollutant loading.

(5) Threaten public health,safety,property,and general welfarebyovertaxing stormsewers,drainage ways,and other minordrainagefacilities.

(6) Threaten publichealth,safety,property,andgeneral welfare byincreasing major floodpeaksandvolumes.

(7) Undermine floodplain managementefforts byincreasing the incidence andlevelsof flooding.

14.63 PURPOSE AND INTENT.

(1) P URP O SE .Thegeneral purposeof thisordinanceisto establish long-term,post-construction runoff managementrequirementsthat willdiminish thethreatsto public health,safety,welfare,and theaquatic environment. Specific purposesareto:

(a) Further the maintenance of safeandhealthfulconditions.

(b) P revent and control the adverseeffects of stormwater; prevent andcontrol soil erosion; prevent andcontrol water pollution; protectspawning grounds,fish,and aquaticlife;controlbuildingsites,place-ent ofstructures and land uses; preserveground coverand scenic beauty;andpromotesoundeconomicgrowth.

(c) C ontrol exceedance of the safecapacityof existingdrainagefacilitiesand receiving waterbodies;preventundue channel erosion; controlincreases in the scouring andtransportation of particulate matter;and prevent conditions thatendangerdownstream property.

(d) P romote the public health, safety,prosperity, and general welfare ofthecitizensof theC ityof B araboo byconserving thesoil,water,and relatedresources and control erosion andsedimentation.

(2) IN TE N T.It istheintent of theC ommonCouncil that thisordinance regulatespost-construction storm-waterdischargesto watersof thestate.Thisordinancemaybeappliedona site-by-site basis.The C ommon C ouncilrecognizes, however, that the preferredmethod of achieving the stormwaterperformance standards set forth in thisordinance is through the preparation andimplementation of comprehensive,systems-level stormwater management plans thatcoverhydrologicunits,suchaswatersheds,ona municipal and regional scale.Such plans

14-33

mayprescribe regional stormwater devices,practicesorsystems,anyof which maybedesigned to treat runoff from morethan onesitepriorto dischargeto watersof thestate.W heresuch plansarein conformancewiththeperformancestandardsdeveloped under§281.16,W is.Stats.,forregional storm-atermanagement measures and have beenapproved bytheC ommon C ouncil,it istheintent of thisordinance that the approvedplan be used to identifypost-constructionmanagement measures acceptable for thecommunity.
