This inspection follows a multimedia inspection that discovered several deficiencies regarding the facilities industrial stormwater permit. The multimedia inspection was conducted on June 27, 2017 by glair Palmer of DAQ. This facility holds General Stormwater Permit NCG160028 to discharge stormwater from industrial activity associated with Paving Mixtures and Blocks [SIC 29511 under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The permit became effective October 1, 2014 and expires on September 30, 2019, A copy of the current permit is required to be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) documents. The current permit was not available for review and was not included in the SPPP at the time of inspection. This facility was required to develop and maintain a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). At the time of the DAQ inspection and again at the DEMLR follow-up inspection, the facility did not have updated responsible parties listed, had not provided required annual training, had not been conducting analytical and qualitative monitoring bi-annually as required, had not been submitting required annual DMR's, did not have required spill kits available onsite, had not been reviewing and signing annual updates of the SPPP, the containment areas need to be better maintained and cleaned out periodically, Containment has been repaired and outfall 3 has been created as requested by the multimedia inspector.

Suitt 300 1 Winstorf-Salem, NC 27103 336 T16 9800 ,a The following observations and violations were noted during the NCDEQ multimedia inspection and subsequent follow-up inspection: Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan:. • NCG 160000 Part II Section A requires the permittee to develop an implement a Stormwater Pollition Plan that includes items I thru 9 of Section A. The facility was deficient with contact information, training, monitoring, spills prevention, secondary containment, general housekeeping, SPPP annual review and update, annual DMR submittals. Analytical Monitoring (Bi-Annual) + NCG 160000, Part II, Section B requires analytical monitoring to be conducted twice annually for TSS and total rainfall at each outfall. The facility was deficient in that it has no record of every complying with the bi-annual monitoring requirement,even though it has received multiple NOV notices and has been asked at each occasion to comply. Failure to monitor and report in accordance with the permit terms may result in monthly monitoring and reporting for a specified time period Qualitative Monitoring (Bi-Annual) • NCG.160000, Part II Section C requires the qualitative monitoring to be conducted twice annually at each outfall. The facility was deficient in that it did not monitor twice annually as required. Monitoring requires the person conducting monitoring to go to each outfall twice each year and document on the qualitative monitoring form what was observed. It's a visual inspection only. Fill out a separate form for each outfall. Again, outfalls will need to be determined and documented on a siteplan to be included in the SPPP. Please begin monitoring twice (2) annually as permit requires. Your Required Response: Accordingly, you are directed to respond to this letter in writing within 30 calendar days of receipt of this Notice. Your response should outline how the violations will be addressed and should be sent to this office at the letterhead address and include the following: • Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan: In your response, tell us how you will address the deficiencies of each of the 9 items of Part Il, Section A of the permit and let us know when you expect to have this issue corrected. • Anal tical Monitoring: Begin bi-annual analytical monitoring. Let us know when to expect results from your monitoring samples and who will be providing testing services. • ualitative Monitoring: Begin qualitative monitoring for each outfall. Monitoring should identify color, odor, clarity, floating solids, suspended solids, foam, oil sheen, erosion or deposition and any other obvious indication of pollution. A photo taken at of the water at the time of inspection provides excellent documentation. Your response should include your expected compliance with bi-annual monitoring.

There has not been annual training conducted since 2015 and the plan has not been updated since 2015. There is no plan being implemented for spills and clean-up based on eonvesation with plant personnel and on -site onservations. There are problems with structural components of the containment wails for the liquid asphalt and No.2 fuel oil. There was visible liquid in containment wall area and evidence of leaks from the wall onto haul roads and possibly loading of liquid ashpalt from truck tanker into the storage vessel. There should an inspection plan by the facility, which should be part of the Best Management Practices, implemented as soon as possible. Plan map does not list (map) outfalls areas, which some sampling has been conducted. The sampling conducted are beeing done in areas where stormwater collects and then either evaporates or sinks and becomes groundwater. This should be follow-up by DEMLR personnel. There are also 2 undocumented outfalls, located in eastern section of the property and close to the entrance/exit point of the facility. This too should be addressed with follow-up by DEMLR. Some general housekeeping needs to be improved, as waste and garabage, was found in the containment area for the liquid storage tanks. The facility has two ponds used for process water. The lower pond is fed from some run-off, but there is no outflow (as it pertans to outfall) and this pond acts as sediment collection basin, which is periodically cleaned out by an old crane, The water from this pond is eventually pumped up hill to a second pond, which is used for process water. Both ponds appeared to well maintained. Lat/longs for this facility were very inaccurate in BIMS and Mr. Palmer verified and corrected them.

There has not been annual training conducted since 2015 and the plan has not been updated since 2015. There is no plan being implemented for spills and clean-up based on convesation with plant personnel and on -site onservations. There are problems with structural components of the containment walls for the liquid asphalt and No.2 fuel oil. There was visible liquid in containment wall area and evidence of leaks from the wall onto haul roads and possibly loading of liquid ashpalt from truck tanker into the storage vessel. There should an inspection plan by the facility, which should be part of the Best Management Practices, implemented as soon as possible. Plan map does not list (map) outfalls areas, which some sampling has been conducted. The sampling conducted are beeing done in areas where stormwater collects and then either evaporates or sinks and becomes groundwater. This should be follow-up by DEMLR personnel. There are also 2 undocumented outfalls, located in eastern section of the property and close to the entrance/exit point of the facility. This too should be addressed with follow-up by DEMLR. Some general housekeeping needs to be improved, as waste and garabage, was found in the containment area for the liquid storage tanks. The facility has two ponds used for process water. The lower pond is fed from some run-off, but there is no outflow (as it pertans to outfall) and this pond acts as sediment collection basin, which is periodically cleaned out by an old crane, The water from this pond is eventually pumped up hill to a second pond, which is used for process water. Both ponds appeared to well maintained. Latllongs for this facility were very inaccurate in BIMS and Mr. Palmer verified and corrected them. Page: 2 permit: NCG160029 Owner .
