HAMILTON AGGREGATES; BONDS QUARRY Stormwater Outfall, Clinton, Arkansas

HAMILTON AGGREGATES; BONDS QUARRY is a stormwater outfall located at 63 7 AUSTIN RD, Clinton, Van Buren County, Arkansas, United States. This facility manages stormwater runoff from a quarry operation classified under NAICS 212321 (Construction Sand and Gravel Mining). As an industrial stormwater outfall, it is subject to the US EPA's NPDES permitting framework, specifically under the Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) for industrial activities. The facility operates under the regulatory oversight of the Arkansas Department of Energy and Environment - Division of Environmental Quality. Stormwater discharges from quarries typically require controls for sediment, turbidity, and potential pollutants from mining operations. The site's location in a rural area of Arkansas means the stormwater likely drains to local waterways, which may be subject to Clean Water Act protections. Environmental significance includes the potential impact on receiving waters from quarry runoff. Proper stormwater management at this facility helps protect water quality in the Arkansas River basin. The facility's compliance with its NPDES permit is critical for minimizing erosion and sedimentation in downstream aquatic habitats.

The facility is located in Van Buren County, Arkansas, within the Arkansas River watershed. Quarry operations can generate stormwater runoff with elevated sediment loads, which may impact local water quality if not properly managed. The region's climate includes seasonal rainfall that can increase runoff volumes. Regulatory oversight under the Clean Water Act requires this facility to implement best management practices (BMPs) to control pollutants in stormwater discharges.
