Dear Supervisor Strough
As you know the Town of Queensbury is a regulated municipality under the NYS DEC Municipal Separate Storm
Sewer System(MS4) program. The purpose of these regulations is to help protect and improve the quality of public
waterbodies in more densely populated areas of the state,specifically focusing on stormwater runoff. These
regulations outline a large number of tasks(formatted as six"minimum measures")which the municipality must
undertake to be in compliance with these mandates.
The six minimum measures which the Town of Queensbury must undertake consist of the following:
MM1: Public education and outreach
MM2: Public involvement and participation
MM3: Illicit discharge detection and elimination
MM4: Construction site runoff control
MM5: Post construction stormwater management
MM6: Pollution prevention and good housekeeping for municipal operations
Currently the Warren County SWCD is assisting the Town of Queensbury with the compliance of the town's+AS4
program in an agreement approved by the Town Board. From my understanding,the NYSDEC is in the final review
for updating and releasing a new M54 permit. There will be changes to the operation of the program and
subsequently to the Town's stormwater plan.
The existing agreement between the SWCD and the Town expired on June 30,2022. The SWCD proposes that the
Town and the SWCD extend the existing agreement until June 30, 2023 . When the new MS4 permit is released,the
District will provide assistance with developing any new permit requirements into the SWMP. At that time,a review
can be done to determine if the new requirements exceed the agreed upon work in regards to this current MS4
agreement. If that is the case then the District would be open to the discussion of modifying the contract if
necessary based on that review.
If this is acceptable, please let me know as soon as possible so that we can execute this
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Jim Lieberum,CPESC
