GESTAMP ALABAMA INC is a stormwater outfall located at 7000 JEFFERSON METROPOLITAN PKWY in MC CALLA, Jefferson County, Alabama. This facility manages stormwater discharge from an industrial site involved in NAICS codes 236210 (Industrial Building Construction), 336110 (Automobile and Light Duty Motor Vehicle Manufacturing), and 336111 (Automobile Manufacturing). As a stormwater outfall, it is part of the broader stormwater management infrastructure for the area. 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. Given its location in Alabama, it likely falls under Phase II MS4 requirements for small municipalities, though the industrial nature of the catchment may necessitate additional industrial stormwater permitting. The outfall discharges stormwater runoff from the industrial site, which may include pollutants from manufacturing and construction activities. Environmental significance includes potential impacts on local water bodies receiving stormwater discharge. The facility's location in an industrial area means runoff could contain sediments, heavy metals, or other pollutants typical of automotive manufacturing. Proper management and treatment of stormwater are critical to protect downstream water quality and comply with NPDES permit limits.
Environmental context
