PINE BLUFF SAND & GRAVEL is a stormwater outfall located at 3979 River Mountain Road, Delaware, Logan County, Arkansas, United States. It operates within the mining and quarrying sector, handling stormwater runoff from industrial activities. The facility is classified as a stormwater outfall and is subject to the US EPA NPDES MS4 permitting framework, which regulates discharges from industrial sites to protect water quality. The facility's operations are governed by the Clean Water Act and relevant state regulations in Arkansas. As a stormwater outfall in the mining sector, it manages runoff from activities such as crushed stone mining and sand/gravel extraction. The NAICS codes associated with the facility (212312, 212319, 212321, 212390) indicate a focus on nonmetallic mineral mining and quarrying, which typically involves large areas of exposed soil and potential sediment runoff. Environmental considerations for this facility include the management of stormwater to prevent erosion and sedimentation in nearby water bodies. The facility's location near the Arkansas River valley may require compliance with total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) for sediment or other pollutants. Proper stormwater management is essential to minimize impacts on local aquatic ecosystems and downstream water quality.
Environmental context
The facility is located in Logan County, Arkansas, within the Arkansas River watershed. The region experiences a humid subtropical climate with significant rainfall, increasing the potential for stormwater runoff from industrial sites. The mining and quarrying operations at this facility can generate sediment-laden runoff, which may impact local streams and the Arkansas River. Regulatory oversight under the NPDES MS4 program requires implementation of best management practices (BMPs) to control erosion and sedimentation.
