Subject: Industrial Facility Inspection
Logistic Leasing LLC – Brown Fleet Services

On December 18, 2023, Michael Schley of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services (CMSWS) conducted
an inspection of the above referenced facility as a requirement of the City of Charlotte’s NPDES Permit,
NCS000240, Part II, Section H. Inspection authority is granted by Charlotte City Code Chapter 18, Article III,
Section 18-82. At the time of inspection, the facility was observed to be in compliance with the City of Charlotte
Storm Water Pollution Control Ordinance.

The inspection was also conducted as part of a cooperative working agreement between Mecklenburg County and
the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) – Division of Energy, Mineral and Land
Resources (DEMLR). NCDEQ – DEMLR has been copied on this report and made aware of the following
observations regarding the facility’s NPDES stormwater permit:

1) Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) has been developed, recorded, and implemented; however
several deficiencies were observed.

2) Qualitative Monitoring
Qualitative monitoring has not been conducted and recorded as required. The facility should conduct qualitative
monitoring per the NCG080000 Permit, Part D.

3) Analytical Monitoring
Analytical monitoring has not been conducted and recorded as required. The facility should conduct analytical
monitoring per the NCG080000 Permit, Part E.

4) Permit and Outfalls
The designated outfall on the detailed site map did not match physical site conditions. Stormwater from several
surrounding businesses flow into the storm drains and detention basin SCM for the facility. CMSWS
recommends that the facility contact the NCDEQ to determine an appropriate outfall location for analytical
monitoring and discuss analytical monitoring in relation to Brown's Fleet Services stormwater commingling
with surrounding businesses stormwater.

Thank you for the assistance and cooperation with the site inspection. The attached report provides details
about inspection observations and should be self-explanatory. Please contact me at 910.523.8072 if you have
