KNUD NIELSEN COMPANY, INC. Stormwater Outfall, Evergreen, Alabama

KNUD NIELSEN COMPANY, INC. is a stormwater outfall located at 175 Industrial Park Rd in Evergreen, Conecuh County, Alabama. This facility manages stormwater discharge from an industrial site classified under NAICS 339999 (Miscellaneous Manufacturing). As a stormwater outfall, it is part of the broader network of regulated stormwater discharges in the United States. The facility operates under the US EPA National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting framework, specifically addressing stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity. In Alabama, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM) administers the NPDES program. The outfall is designed to convey stormwater runoff from the industrial site to receiving waters, with permit requirements typically including stormwater pollution prevention plans (SWPPP) and monitoring. Located in a rural area of southern Alabama, the outfall discharges into local waterways that may ultimately feed into the Conecuh River basin. Proper stormwater management is critical to prevent pollutants from industrial activities, such as sediment, chemicals, or debris, from impacting water quality. The facility's compliance with its NPDES permit helps protect downstream aquatic ecosystems and community water resources.

The facility is situated in Conecuh County, Alabama, within the Conecuh River watershed. This region features a mix of forested and agricultural land, with the river supporting diverse aquatic life. Stormwater runoff from industrial sites can carry pollutants like heavy metals, oils, and sediments, which may impair water quality if not properly managed. Regulatory oversight under the Clean Water Act and ADEM ensures that discharges meet water quality standards to protect the ecological health of receiving waters.
