Overview
WEBB WHEEL PRODUCTS INC is an operational stormwater outfall in Cullman, Alabama, serving industrial facilities in the automotive and abrasive manufacturing sectors.
WEBB WHEEL PRODUCTS INC is a stormwater outfall located at 2411 7th Avenue SW in Cullman, Alabama, United States. The facility is operational and manages stormwater discharge from industrial activities classified under NAICS codes 327910 (abrasive product manufacturing) and 336340 (motor vehicle brake system manufacturing). As a stormwater outfall, it is subject to the U.S. EPA's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permitting program, specifically under the Clean Water Act's industrial stormwater regulations. The facility operates within the regulatory framework of the NPDES Multi-Sector General Permit (MSGP) for industrial activities. This permit requires implementation of stormwater pollution prevention plans (SWPPPs), best management practices (BMPs), and monitoring of discharge quality. The outfall likely handles runoff from manufacturing processes, parking areas, and material storage, with controls in place to minimize pollutant loading to receiving waters. Located in Cullman County, Alabama, the facility's stormwater discharge may ultimately reach local waterways such as the Mulberry Fork of the Black Warrior River. The environmental significance lies in managing industrial runoff to protect water quality in a region with diverse aquatic habitats. Compliance with NPDES permit conditions helps mitigate risks from sediment, heavy metals, and other industrial pollutants common in automotive and abrasive manufacturing.
Environmental context
The facility is situated in Cullman, Alabama, within the Black Warrior River watershed. Industrial stormwater discharges from manufacturing operations can introduce pollutants such as heavy metals, oils, and suspended solids to local streams. The region's climate, with frequent rainfall, increases runoff volumes and the potential for pollutant transport. Regulatory oversight under the Clean Water Act aims to protect aquatic ecosystems and downstream water uses through permit conditions and monitoring requirements.
