Whiìt is s¡0rmwater runoff?
stormwater runoff occurs when prec¡pitat¡on from ra¡n or snowmelt
flows over the ground. lmpervious surfâces like roads and sidewalks
prevent stormwãter from naturâlly soaking into the ground
Why is sterrmwater runoTf a probleu?
Stormwater can p¡ck up debris, chemìcals, dìrt and other
polhtants and flow ¡nto cDoÏs storm drã¡n system or dìrectly
ìnto a stream, rìver, lãke, wetland or reservoir. Anything that
enters COOÏs storm drã¡n system is dischârged untreated into
thê waterwâys we use for fishing, swimming, and providing
drink¡ng water.
Tips for Reporting on lllicìt Discharge
call the ¡ll¡c¡t d¡schârge hotl¡ne at (303) 5124426
From â safe distance try to est¡mate the amount of
the discharge.
ldentify character¡st¡cs of the discharge (color, odor,

Hazardous Materials. Solid Waste - The Solid Wastes Disposal Sites and Facilities Act C.R.S. 30-20-100, et al, and Regulations
Pertaining to Solid Waste Disposal Sites and Facilities (6 CCR 1007-2), prohibit solid waste disposal without an approved Certificate
of Designation (a landfill permit). The Colorado Hazardous Waste Act C.R.S. 25-15-301 et al, and the Colorado Hazardous Waste
Regulations (6 CCR 1007-3) prohibit the transfer, storage or disposal (TSD) of hazardous waste except at permitted TSD sites. There
are no permitted landfills or TSD sites within the State Highway Right of Way. Therefore, all solid or hazardous wastes that might be
generated by the activities of entities entering the State Highway Right of Way must be removed from the ROW and disposed of at a
permitted facility or designated collection point (e.9., for solid waste, a utility or construction company's own dumpster). lf pre-existing
solid waste or hazardous materials contamination (including oil or petroleum contaminated soil, asbestos, chemicals, mine tailings,
etc.) is encountered during the performa nce of work, the permittee shall halt work in the affected area and immediately contact the

Form 101, Page2
The following paragraphs are excerpts of the State Highway
Access Code. These are provided for your convenience but
do not alleviate compliance with all sections of the Access
Code. A copy of the State Highway Access Code is available
from your local issuing authority (local government) or the
Colorado Department of Transportation (Department).
When this permit was issued, the issuing authority made its
decision based in part on information submitted by the
applicant, on the access category which is assigned to the
highway, what alternative access to other public roads and
streets is available, and safety and design standards.
Changes in use or design nol approved by the permit or the
issuing authority may cause the revocation or suspension of
the permit.
APPEALS
1. Should the permittee or applicant object to the denial of
a permit application by the Department or object to any of the
terms or conditions of a permit placed there by the
Department, the applicant and permittee (appellant) have a
right to appeal the decision to the [Transportation]
Commission [of Colorado]. To appeal a decision, submit a
request for administrative hearing to the Transportation
Commission of Colorado within 60 days of transmittal of
notice of denial or transmittal of the permit for signature.
Submit the request to the Transportation Commission of
Colorado, 4201 East Arkansas Avenue, Denver, Colorado
80222-3400. The request shall include reasons for the
appeal and may include changes, revisions, or conditions
that would be acceptable to the permittee or applicant.
2. Any appeal by the applicant or permittee of action by a
local issuing authority shall be filed with the local authority
and be consistent with the appeal procedures of the local
authority.
3. ln submitting the request for administrative hearing, the
appellant has the option of including within the appeal a
requesl for a review by the Department's internal
administrative review committee pursuant to [Code]
subsection 2.10. When such committee review is requested,
processing of the appeal for formal administrative hearing,
2.9(5) and (6), shall be suspended until the appellant notifies
the Commission to proceed with the administrative hearing,
or the appellant submits a request to the Commission or the
administrative law judge to withdraw the appeal. The two
administrative processes, the internal administrative review
committee, and the administrative hearing, may not run
concurrently.
4. Regardless of any communications, meetings,
administrative reviews or negotiations with the Department
or the internal administrative review Committee regarding
revisions or objections to the permit or a denial, if the
permittee or applicant wishes to appeal lhe Deparlment's
decision to the Commission for a hearing, the appeal must
be brought to the Commission within 60 days of transmittal
of notice of denial or transmittal of the permit.
PERMIT EXPIRATION
1. A permit shall be considered expired if the access is not
under construction within one year of the permit issue date
or before the expiration of any authorized extension. When
the permittee is unable to commence construction within one
year after the permit issue dale, the permiltee may request a
one year extension from the issuing authority. No more than
two one-year extensions may be granted under any
circumstances. lf the access is not under construction within
three years from date of issue the permit will be considered
expired. Any request for an extension must be in writing and
submitted to the issuing authority before the permit expires.
The request should state the reasons why the extension is
necessary, when construction is anticipated, and include a
copy of page 1 (face of permit) of the access permit.
Extension approvals shall be in writing. The local issuing
authority shall obtain the concurrence of the Department
prior to the approval of an extension, and shall notify the
Department of all denied extensions within ten days. Any
person wishing to reestablish an access permit that has
expired may begin again with the application procedures. An
approved Notice to Proceed, automatically renews the
access permit for the period of the Notice to Proceed.
CONSTRUCTION
1. Construction may not begin until a Notice to Proceed is
approved. (Code subseclion 2.41
2. The construction of the access and its appurtenances as
required by the terms and conditions of the permit shall be
completed at the expense of the permittee except as
provided in subsection 2.14. All materials used in the
construction of the access within the highway right-of-way or
on permanent easements, become public property. Any
materials removed from the highway right-of-way will be
disposed of only as directed by the Department. All fencing,
guard rail, traffic control devices and other equipment and
materials removed in the course of access construction shall
be given to the Departmenl unless otherwise instructed by
the permit or the Department inspector.
3. The permittee shall notify the individual or the office
specified on the permit or Notice to Proceed at least two

property, natural or cultural resources protected by law, or
the health and safety of workers or the public.
5. Prior to using the access, the permittee is required to
complete the construction according to lhe terms and
conditions of the permit. Failure by the permittee to abide by
all permit terms and conditions shall be sufficient cause for
the Department or issuing authority to initiate action to
suspend or revoke the permit and close the access. lf in the
determination of the Department or issuing authority the
failure to comply with or complete the construction
requirements of the permit create a highway safety hazard,
such shall be sufficient cause for the summary suspension

What is stormwater runoff?
Stormwater runoff occurs when precipitation from rain or snowmelt
flows over the ground. lmpervious surfaces like roads and s¡dewalks
prevent stormwater trom naturally soak¡ng into the Sround
Why is stormwater runoff a problem?
Stormwater can pick up debrìs, chemicals, dirt and other
pollutânts and flow into CDOT,s storm drain system or directly
into a stream, river, lake, wetlãnd or reseruoir. Anyth¡ng thãt

Discharqe of Dredqed or Fill Material - 404 Permits Administered Bv the U.S. Armv Coros of Enqineers. and Section 401
Water Qualitv Certifications lssued bv the CDPHE WQCD - Corps of Engineers 404 permits are required for the discharge of
dredged or fill materials into waters of the United States, including wetlands. There are various types of 404 permits, including
nationwide permits, which are issued for activities with relatively minor ¡mpacts. For example, there is a nationwide permit for utility
line activities (nwp #12). Depending upon the specific circumstances, it is possible that either a "general" or "individual" 404 permit
would be required. lf an individual 404 permit is required, section 401 water quality certification from the CDPHE WQCD is also
required. Contact the appropriate Corps District Regulatory Office for information about what type of 404 permit may be required
(contact information above). Contact the CDPHE Water Quality Control Division at (303) 692-3500.

Disposal of Drillinq Fluids - Drilling fluids used in operations such as Horizontal Directional Drilling may be classified as "discharges"
or "solid wastes," and in general, should be pumped or vacuumed from the construction area, removed from the State Highway Right
of Way, and disposed of at permitted facilities that specifically accept such wastes. Disposal of drilling fluids into storm drains, storm
sewers, roadside ditches or any other type of man-made or natural waterway is prohibited by Water Quality Control and/or Solid
Waste regulations. Small quantities of drilling fluid solids (less than 1 cubic yard of solids) may be left on-site after either being
separated from fluids or after infiltration of the water, provided: 'l) the drilling fluid consists of only water and bentonite clay, or, if
required for proper drilling properties, small quantities of polymer additives that are approved for use in drinking water well drilling; 2)
the solids are fully contained in a pit, and are not likely to pose a nuisance to future work in the area, 3) the solids are covered and the
area restored as required by CDOT permit requirements (Utility, Special Use, or Access Permits, etc.). Contact Information:
