Dear Ms. Nichols:
Shield Engineering, Inc. (Shield) was unable to collect stormwater samples at the Cleveland facility for the
month of September 2019 at Stormwater Discharge Outfall (SDO) 4001 and #002. According to rainfall data
collected for the month, two qualifying events or group events occurred on September 13" and September 29ih,
producing 0.36 inches and 0.07 inches of rain, respectively. However, each of these events took place after
normal business hours, within 72 hours of the last qualifying storm event, or did not produce enough rainfall to
collect a sample. Shield will continue to monitor daily weather conditions and attempt to continue coordination
of appropriate staff and resources to facilitate adequate sample collection. A partially completed DMR form is
attached to this cover letter for your signature and submittal to the State.
Daimler's Cleveland facility remains in Tier,Three of the NPDES General Permit No. NCG030000 at SDO 4001
and SDO #002 for Copper. The facility is also Tier Three for Zinc at SDO #002. The person designated to act
as the permittee by Daimler Trucks — Cleveland Facility should complete all "Red" sections of the attached
Stormwater Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR). The completed DMR form should then be mailed to the
regulatory agency Central Files. Shield greatly appreciates the opportunity to provide environmental services to
Daimler Trucks of North America. If you have any questions in reference to this document or require further
information, please feel free to contact either of the undersigned at [phone].
