ANNISTON, Alabama, United States

Overview

BOOZER LAMINATED BEAM CO., INC. is an operational stormwater outfall in Anniston, Alabama, serving an industrial facility engaged in engineered wood member manufacturing.

BOOZER LAMINATED BEAM CO., INC. operates a stormwater outfall located at 1600 W 16th St, Anniston, Alabama 36201-3416. This facility is classified under NAICS codes 321213 (Engineered Wood Member Manufacturing) and 321215 (Structural Wood Member Manufacturing), indicating an industrial catchment with potential for stormwater runoff from manufacturing operations. As a stormwater outfall in the United States, this facility is subject to the Clean Water Act and likely operates under an NPDES permit for industrial stormwater discharges. The Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) administers the NPDES program in the state. Industrial facilities in the wood products sector must implement stormwater pollution prevention plans (SWPPPs) to control pollutants such as sediment, wood debris, and chemicals. The outfall discharges into local waterways in the Calhoun County area. Anniston is located in the Coosa River basin, which supports diverse aquatic ecosystems. Proper management of stormwater runoff from industrial sites is critical to protect water quality and downstream uses. The facility's operational status indicates ongoing compliance with regulatory requirements.

Environmental context

The outfall is located in Anniston, Alabama, within the Coosa River watershed. The Coosa River is a biologically diverse system supporting numerous fish and mussel species. Industrial stormwater runoff from wood product manufacturing can carry sediment, organic matter, and chemical residues that may impact aquatic habitats. The facility's location in an industrial area with impervious surfaces increases runoff volume and pollutant loads. Regulatory oversight under the NPDES program aims to minimize these impacts through best management practices.
