Source control definition

Source control means a range of actions, for example, removal, treatment in place, and containment, designed to protect human health and the environment by eliminating or minimizing migration of or exposure to significant contamination.
Source control means stormwater management practices that control stormwater before pollutants have been introduced into stormwater; a structure or operation that is intended to prevent pollutants from coming into contact with stormwater through physical separation of areas or careful management of activities that are sources of pollutants. The 2012 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington as amended 2014 separates source control BMPs into two types. Structural Source Control BMPs are physical, structural, or mechanical devices, or facilities that are intended to prevent pollutants from entering stormwater. Operational BMPs are non-structural practices that prevent or reduce pollutants from entering stormwater. See Volume IV-Source Control BMPs of the 2012 Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington as amended 2014 for details.
Source control means the construction or installation and start-up of those actions necessary to prevent the continued release of hazardous substances or pollutants or contaminants (primarily from a source on top of or within the ground, or in buildings or other structures) into the environment.

More Definitions of Source control

Source control means practices to limit the generation of stormwater pollutants at their source.
Source control means a BMP intended to prevent pollutants from entering surface and storm water and/or ground water including the modification of processes to eliminate the production or use of pollutants. Source control BMPs can be either structural or non-structural. Structural source control BMPs involve the construction of a physical structure on site, or other type of physical modification to a site; for example, building a covered storage area. A non-structural source control BMP involves the modification or addition of managerial or behavioral practices; for example, using less toxic alternatives to current products or sweeping vehicle parking lots.
Source control means a structural or operational measure to prevent or control the release or potential release of pollutants generated by certain site characteristics and uses.
Source control means actions taken to remove or treat soil or groundwater contamination, or both, actions taken to mini- mize the leaching of soil contamination to groundwater, and ac- tions taken to prevent the migration of groundwater contamina- tion. The term “source control” includes tank removal, the removal of free product and contaminant hot spot removal or treatment. The term “source control” does not include groundwa- ter monitoring, soil sampling, recycling or reuse of contaminants, reliance on natural attenuation to address residual contamination,
Source control means those measures applied to the design of buildings, structures, and the premises to eliminate or reduce the introduction of pollutants to stormwater.
Source control means a structure or operation that is intended to prevent pollutants from coming into contact with stormwater through physical separation of areas or careful management of activities that are sources of pollutants. Source control BMPs can be either structural or operational. Structural source control BMPs are physical structures, or mechanical devices, or facilities that are intended to prevent pollutants from entering stormwater. Operational BMPs are non-structural practices that prevent or reduce pollutants from entering stormwater.
