One <br />requirement is that the City must hold a public hearing to provide a summary of the City's Storm Water <br />Pollution Prevention Plan, outline the activities of the City for the past calendar year in regards to the <br />permit requirements, and allow for public input and comment. <br />Halvorson stated the basic requirements of the City are, (1) to complete an application form; and (2) <br />implement a storm water pollution control and prevention program. The six minimum control measures <br />that must be met are: (1) public education and outreach; (2) public participation and involvement; (3) <br />illicit discharge detection and elimination; (4), construction site storm water runoff control; (5) post <br />construction storm water management; and (6), pollution prevention and good housekeeping for <br />municipal operations. <br />PAGE 1 <br />
