Overview
KD Tools Danaher Tool Group is a stormwater outfall in Fayetteville, Arkansas, serving an industrial catchment under US EPA NPDES MS4 regulations. The facility manages runoff from tool manufacturing operations.
KD Tools Danaher Tool Group is a stormwater outfall located at 2900 City Lake Rd in Fayetteville, Washington County, Arkansas. This facility handles stormwater runoff from an industrial site engaged in tool manufacturing, with NAICS codes 332212, 332216, and 332312 covering cutlery, saw blade, and hand tool production. As a stormwater outfall, it is part of the broader municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) regulated under the Clean Water Act. The facility operates under the US EPA's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting framework, which requires industrial stormwater discharges to obtain coverage under a Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) or an individual permit. The site's industrial activities necessitate best management practices (BMPs) to control pollutants in runoff, including sediment, oil and grease, and heavy metals common in metalworking operations. Compliance with monitoring and reporting requirements is essential to protect receiving waters. Located in Fayetteville, the outfall discharges into local waterways that are part of the Arkansas River basin. The region's climate, with moderate rainfall and seasonal storms, can influence runoff volumes and pollutant loads. Proper stormwater management at this facility helps mitigate impacts on downstream water quality and supports community efforts to maintain healthy aquatic ecosystems.
Environmental context
The facility is situated in an industrial area of Fayetteville, Arkansas, where stormwater runoff can carry pollutants such as sediment, metals, and hydrocarbons from manufacturing processes. The receiving waters in the Arkansas River basin are subject to state water quality standards, and the facility's discharge must comply with NPDES permit limits to prevent impairment. Urban and industrial land use in the catchment increases the risk of pollutant loading, making stormwater treatment and best management practices critical for protecting local streams and lakes.
