KELVIN'S SALVAGE LLC Stormwater Outfall, REPTON, Alabama | USA

KELVIN'S SALVAGE LLC is a stormwater outfall located at 11773 LOREE ROAD in REPTON, Conecuh County, Alabama, United States. This facility manages stormwater runoff from an industrial salvage operation, discharging into local waterways. As a stormwater outfall, it is subject to the US EPA's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting program, specifically under the Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) regulations for industrial activities. The facility operates under the Clean Water Act framework, which requires stormwater discharges to be regulated through NPDES permits. In Alabama, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) administers the NPDES program. The outfall likely handles runoff from the salvage yard, which may contain pollutants such as sediment, oil, grease, and metals. Typical best management practices (BMPs) for such facilities include sediment basins, oil-water separators, and regular inspections. As an operational stormwater outfall in rural Conecuh County, this facility contributes to local water quality management. The region's waterways ultimately drain to the Gulf of Mexico, making proper stormwater control important for downstream ecosystems. The facility's compliance with its NPDES permit helps protect receiving waters from industrial runoff impacts.

The facility is located in Conecuh County, Alabama, a rural area with mixed forest and agricultural land use. The region experiences a humid subtropical climate with heavy rainfall events, increasing the risk of stormwater runoff carrying pollutants. Local waterways are part of the Conecuh River watershed, which drains to the Gulf of Mexico. Industrial salvage operations can introduce metals, hydrocarbons, and sediment into stormwater, potentially impacting aquatic habitats if not properly managed.
