CROP PRODUCTION SERVICES, INC-BLYTHEVILLE-BYRUM ROAD Stormwater Outfall, Blytheville, Arkansas

CROP PRODUCTION SERVICES, INC-BLYTHEVILLE-BYRUM ROAD is a stormwater outfall located in Blytheville, Mississippi County, Arkansas. This facility manages stormwater runoff from an industrial site, operating under the regulatory framework of the US Clean Water Act and EPA NPDES MS4 permits. As a stormwater outfall, it discharges collected runoff into local waterways, playing a key role in managing urban and industrial stormwater in the region. The facility operates within the Mississippi River watershed, where stormwater management is critical for controlling pollutant loads and preventing flooding. In Arkansas, stormwater outfalls like this one are subject to Phase II MS4 requirements for small municipalities and industrial facilities. The site's location in an agricultural and industrial area means runoff may contain sediment, nutrients, and other contaminants typical of such catchments. This outfall contributes to local stormwater infrastructure by conveying runoff from the industrial property to receiving waters. Proper management helps protect water quality in downstream ecosystems, including the Mississippi River. The facility's operational status ensures ongoing compliance with permit conditions aimed at reducing the impact of stormwater discharges on the environment.

The facility is located in the Mississippi Alluvial Plain, a region with intensive agriculture and industrial activity. Stormwater runoff from industrial sites can carry pollutants such as heavy metals, oils, and sediments into local waterways. The outfall discharges into a tributary of the Mississippi River, which is a major water body with water quality concerns related to nutrient pollution and sediment loading. Effective stormwater management is essential to minimize ecological impacts and support compliance with the Clean Water Act.
