RAZORBACK CONCRETE-BLYTHEVILLE Stormwater Outfall, Blytheville, Arkansas

RAZORBACK CONCRETE-BLYTHEVILLE is a stormwater outfall facility situated at 1101 Mchaney Road in Blytheville, Mississippi County, Arkansas. As part of the ready-mix concrete manufacturing sector (NAICS 327320), this operational facility manages stormwater discharges from an industrial catchment area. The facility is located in the Mississippi River Delta region, which influences local hydrology and stormwater management practices. In the United States, stormwater outfalls from industrial facilities are regulated under the Clean Water Act's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program. Facilities like this one typically require a Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity. The permit mandates implementation of best management practices (BMPs) to control pollutants, including sediment, oil and grease, and concrete-related materials. Regular monitoring and reporting are required to ensure compliance with water quality standards. The facility's stormwater outfall discharges into local waterways that eventually flow into the Mississippi River. Given the industrial nature of the catchment, potential pollutants include suspended solids, pH fluctuations, and concrete washout. Effective stormwater management is critical to protect downstream water quality and aquatic habitats. The facility's operational status indicates ongoing compliance with regulatory requirements.

The facility is located in the Mississippi River Delta region, an area characterized by flat topography and extensive agricultural and industrial activity. Stormwater runoff from industrial sites like RAZORBACK CONCRETE-BLYTHEVILLE can carry pollutants such as sediment, heavy metals, and concrete-related compounds into nearby streams and rivers. The Mississippi River and its tributaries are vital for drinking water, recreation, and aquatic ecosystems, making stormwater management crucial for maintaining water quality. Regulatory oversight under the NPDES program ensures that discharges are monitored and controlled to minimize environmental impact.
