Activities that take place at industrial facilities, such as material handling and storage, are often exposed to storm water.The runoff from these activities discharges industrial pollutants into nearby storm sewer systems and water bodies.This may adversely impact water quality.Federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(i)-(xi) require storm water discharges associated with specific categories of industrial activity to be covered under NPDES permits (unless otherwise excluded).https://www.epa.ohio.gov/dsw/storm/index#108452494-industrial-activities
