ROLLING FRITO-LAY/BLYTHEVILLE Stormwater Outfall, Blytheville, Arkansas | US Stormwater Facility

ROLLING FRITO-LAY/BLYTHEVILLE is a stormwater outfall located at 2587 BYRUM in Blytheville, Mississippi County, Arkansas. This facility manages stormwater runoff from an industrial site, likely associated with food manufacturing given the NAICS code 484110 (General Freight Trucking). As a stormwater outfall, it discharges collected runoff into local waterways, playing a key role in flood control and water quality management. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US Clean Water Act, specifically the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permits. Arkansas is subject to Phase II MS4 requirements for smaller municipalities, though larger industrial sites may have individual permits. The outfall's discharge point is subject to monitoring for pollutants such as sediment, nutrients, and chemicals commonly found in industrial runoff. Located in the Mississippi River Delta region, the outfall discharges into a watershed that ultimately drains to the Mississippi River. This area is prone to heavy rainfall and flooding, making stormwater management critical for preventing erosion and protecting downstream water quality. The facility's operational status ensures ongoing compliance with local stormwater regulations, contributing to the environmental health of the region.

The facility is situated in the Mississippi River Delta, a region characterized by flat topography, agricultural land use, and a humid subtropical climate with frequent heavy rainfall. Stormwater runoff from industrial sites like this can carry pollutants such as heavy metals, oils, and sediments into nearby streams and rivers. Effective management is essential to protect water quality in the Mississippi River watershed, which supports diverse aquatic ecosystems and provides drinking water for millions.
