WEBB CONCRETE-HEFLIN is a stormwater outfall located at 64 Hunnicutt Street in Heflin, Cleburne County, Alabama, United States. The facility is operational and manages stormwater runoff from an industrial concrete production site, contributing to local flood control and water quality management. As a stormwater outfall in the United States, this facility operates under the regulatory framework of the Clean Water Act and the EPA's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) permits. Depending on the municipality's designation, it may be subject to Phase I or Phase II requirements, which mandate stormwater management plans, best management practices (BMPs), and monitoring to reduce pollutant discharges. The facility's location in Heflin, Alabama, places it within a region characterized by a humid subtropical climate with significant rainfall, making stormwater management critical for preventing localized flooding and erosion. The outfall likely discharges to a nearby waterbody, and its industrial catchment may include pollutants such as sediment, heavy metals, and hydrocarbons, necessitating compliance with water quality standards.

Environmental context

The facility is situated in Cleburne County, Alabama, within the Talladega National Forest region, which features numerous streams and rivers that drain into the Coosa River basin.
