BAGLEY RIDGE RECLAMATION PROJECT Stormwater Outfall, Mount Olive, Alabama

BAGLEY RIDGE RECLAMATION PROJECT is a stormwater outfall facility located in Mount Olive, Jefferson County, Alabama, United States. As a stormwater outfall, it serves as a discharge point for stormwater runoff from the surrounding area, playing a key role in local drainage and flood control. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US Clean Water Act, specifically the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permits. These permits govern stormwater discharges from municipal systems and industrial activities, requiring compliance with water quality standards. The facility's NAICS code 237990 indicates it is related to other heavy and civil engineering construction activities, which may involve stormwater management infrastructure. Located in Alabama, the facility contributes to managing stormwater runoff in the urban and suburban context of Mount Olive. Proper operation helps reduce the risk of flooding and erosion, and protects local water bodies from pollution carried by stormwater. The facility's role is part of a broader network of stormwater controls that support community resilience and environmental health.

The facility discharges stormwater into local waterways in the Jefferson County area, which may include streams and rivers that are part of the Black Warrior River watershed. Urban and suburban runoff can carry pollutants such as sediment, nutrients, and heavy metals, potentially impacting water quality. The facility's operation under NPDES MS4 permits requires implementation of best management practices to minimize these impacts and protect aquatic ecosystems.
