Structural storm water management measures, sediment and erosion control measures, and other structural pollution prevention measures identified in the plan shall be observed to ensure that they are operating correctly. A visual inspection of equipment needed to implement the plan, such as spill response equipment, shall be made. Measures and controls must be revised as appropriate within 2 weeks after each comprehensive site evaluation. Changes in procedural operations must be implemented on the site in a timely manner for nonstructural measures and controls not more than 12 weeks after completion of the comprehensive site evaluation.
