Central Office Review Summary
1. Owner's Other Permits: None in BWS. Air Quality Permit No. 05835T14
2. General Obser ,ations:
• Lisa Myers is the new permit contact. 704-474-7760 and lisa.jonesna us.maii.coml
• Outfall 002 description was changed to "confluence of downspouts and storm sewers." The outfall
was a pond of <300 gallons but it was filled in because it was a breeding ground for nuisance insects.
(Based on letter dated 7/13/06)
3. Impair rent: Pee Dee River, downstream of Cedar Creek, is on the 2010 draft 303d list and is impaired for low
pH. The Lake Tilley -Pee Dee River subbasin plan of the 2008 Yadkin Pee Dee Basinwide Plan had no specific
recommendations for Cedar Creek.
4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom there are no federal protected
species within two miles of the facility.
5. Location: Facility does not drain to impaired waters, but this segment of Cedar Creek is designated as Water
Supply waters.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: None listed in renewal application.
7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1 below. Sample values were below the pH benchmark (6 SU) five
times for OutfalI 1 and one time for Outfall 2. One sample values for COD was above the benchmark (120mg/1)
at 130 mg/l. A letter from the permittee describes that they think the source of the COD is from a 24" drainage
pipe that drains a local cattle farm and connects directly to the storm sewer.
The previous staff report (B. Georgoulias, Permit Reviewer) indicates that earlier monitoring requirements were
based on EPA Multi Sector Permit for this industry. In Sector Y (Rubber, Miscellaneous Plastic Products, and
Miscellaneous Manufacturing Industries) of the current EPA MSGP, it recommends monitoring for Total Zinc.
Total Zinc was not included in the previous renewal, even though it was a pollutant of concern, for this industry
because the site does not store or use zinc oxide (based on the company's 1999 submittal letter). Instead, the
facility uses rubber stock mixed at other facilities. The letter asserted that ZnO becomes encapsulated in the
rubber matrix and is unavailable as a stormwater containment.
The previous permit required monitoring for COD, Oil & Grease (O&G) and pH. TSS was removed during the
last renewal. Permittee never monitored for Oil & Grease. They continued to monitor for TSS instead of
O&G. Reviewer recommends retaining monitoring for COD and pH. Reviewer also recommends
monitoring for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) instead of Oil and Grease. Oil & Grease was originally
added to the permit because of fueling and cleaning activities at the site. Michelin stores and/or transfers fuel
oil, diesel fuel, solvents, and lubricants at this site (From 2005 Staff Report). O&G has been used at sites
handling, storage or use of petroleum products. O&G, by definition, is composed of fatty matter from animal
and vegetable sources and hydrocarbons of petroleum origin. TPH is a better measure for petroleum
hydrocarbons. Therefore TPH will be used instead of O&G because the facility is only expected to discharge
petroleum based hydrocarbons. Method 1664(SGT-HEM) is specified.
8. Qualitative Monitoring otes: No problems noted. All of the findings included were checked "OK".
From Central Files: 10/27/06 Red —light brown color noted.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Maintaining monitoring for COD and pH to the analytical monitoring requirements. Replacing Oil and Grease
with TPH.
2. All analytical monitoring remains at semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
3. .Exceedanccs of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions,
increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program.
4. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part 11 Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
5. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote I of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. Annual summary DMR will be due to RO in March of every year.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges. Additional information is provided in Part II Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part II Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part H Section A.
Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements: Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.

2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a
narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or
minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate the following:
a. Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall
prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and
manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater management pwaspote
' document the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away fr tial contamination.
b. Secondary Containment Schedule. A c ule to pt ide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, sto gel. f Section 313 of Title III of the
Superfund Amendments and Reaut on at = . ct (SARA) water priority
chemicals, or storage of hazardot sus st c to prevent leaks and spills from
contaminating stormwater runoff. the- condary containment devices are
connected directly to stormw " erc nv ance'systems, the connection shall be
controlled by manually a_`.''_ atedw es or other similar devices [which shall'be
secured with a loci I m h _ ism] and any stormwater that accumulates in the
containment area shall= at nimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall

stormwater. A13cumulate stor nwater shall be released if found to be
uncontamina eby thetmaterial stored within the containment area. Records
doe umentinghi v dual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
C. BUT Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management
Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease
separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater
detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be
based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute significant quantities
of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of
stormwater discharges.
3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP)
shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the
SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be'on-site at all times during facility
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or
exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site
stormwater specific. Therefore, a SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP, but may
not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common
elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP.

(average well below benchmark at both outfalls). Permit retains
annual pH and COD monitoring (most recent COD value at SDO #2
was at the benchmark of 120 mg/1), and now also includes Oil &
Grease monitoring (fueling and cleaning activities at this site). Vehicle
Maintenance monitoring changed to quarterly in the 4' year for
consistency with other permits.
Basis for Other Requirements:
Removed cutoff concentrations per DWQ revised monitoring strategy
for individual Stormwater permits (implemented for all second term
permits with analytical monitoring requirements). Monitoring data are
instead compared to benchmark concentrations during renewal review.
Flow monitoring removed from Sections B and D per DWQ revised
monitoring strategy. Instead, Part 11. Sec. A clarifies that SPPP site
map include drainage area for each outfall in acres and percent
impervious area in each drainage area. Total Rainfall and Event
Duration parameters also added to Section D. Vehicle maintenance
activities did not trigger monitoring last term_

O&G in stormwater. Evaluation of the grab sample data submitted in the group application to the USEPA
indicates O&G in excess of this benchmark in 7.7% of the group application samples. The average values
for the data are below the benchmark. However, O&G will be monitored because activities such as fueling,
servicing, cleaning, and storage of vehicles and equipment present a significant potential for contamination

Please accept the enclosed permit renewal application for Michelin Aircraft Tire
Corporation's NPDES permit #ncs000373. I believe that all pertinent and supplemental
information has been included according to the instruction letter sent out by the Division
of Water Quality.
.I - MATC has been operating according to its storm water permit throughout its
duration. Due to the capricious and arbitrary nature of the weather, however, MATC was
not able to perform all of its qualitative sampling during the "windows" specified in our
original permit (Apr. -Tune. and Sept. -Nov.). When weather conditions did not permit our
sampling within the specified windows, the first storm event occurring afterwards was
used. I was pleased to see the elimination of the sampling "windows" and the
implementation of sampling anytime during the year as long as it meets the new criteria
for a representative storm event. That will make sampling much easier.
If you have any questions, comments or -suggestions for improving the format of
the information supplied, please contact me. If this renewal package is deficient in any
way, please contact me IMMEDIATELY so that I may have the opportunity to resubmit
within the specified time limit (prior to April 3; 2004). Thank you for your time and
consideration.

SECTION- 3 -
EXISTING MEASURES AND CONTROLS
This section describes the existing measures and controls at Michelin's Norwood
facility for minimizing the potential of contaminating storm water. Section 3.1
describes general measures and controls at the facility, and Section 3.2 describes the
measures and controls for the specific potential pollutant sources identified during the
site assessment.
3.1 GENERAL MEASURES AND CONTROLS
A review of facility programs that directly or indirectly prevent and/or mitigate
releases of contaminants to storm water is presented below. The following measures,
and controls are discussed:
• Good Housekeeping Practices
• Standard Operating Procedures
• Visual Inspections
• .Preventive Maintenance
• Integrated Spill Prevention, Control & Countermeasure Plan
• Spill Prevention/Response Team
• Employee Training
• Security
3.1.1 Good Housekeeping Practices
- Good housekeeping practices are a part of Michelin's operation to maintain a clean
and orderly environment and thereby reduce the possibility of accidental spills and
equipment damage that may result in releases to surface waters. Examples of these
practices include the following:
• A contract cleaning operation cleans the production areas twice per day
with a sweeper. (Inside. - keeps loading dock areas clean)
• Drip pans with absorbent rags are located under nozzles on the. 55-gallon
drums at lubricating oil stations. (Eliminates oil escaping through floor
drains or cracks in the floor)
3.1 t
03/17/04

• All areas are cleaned at the end of each shift by the employees. Brooms,
dust -pans and trash containers are stored throughout the plant.
• Spills of any kind are contained and cleaned up promptly.
3.1.2 Standard Operating Procedures
To further enhance a clean, orderly environment, employees are trained in standard
operating procedures (SOPs) that have been developed for all work posts. The SOPS
specify the safety protection required, the instructions for performing the work task, the
cleaning procedures, and the instructions for emergency stops. They are also trained
on what to do if a spill occurs on site, and their role in preventing pollution of the
environment.
SOP's used by facilities personnel. during the course of their work include specific
procedures on inspection of grounds, equipment maintenance, and environmentally safe
methods of loading, unloading, and transfer of oils, hazardous substances, or wastes. .
3.1.3 Visual Inspections
i In addition to the visual inspections of production- equipment and production areas
that occur on a continuous basis during production, Michelin has two additional formal
visual inspection practices. . The first is a daily inspection of the facility during all
scheduled production days, and the second is an inspection conducted every two hours
during scheduled plant shutdowns. Inspection forms used for these procedures are.
included in Appendix C of the SWPPP.
3.1.4 Preventive Maintenance
Michelin has established a preventive maintenance schedule tracked by computer to
keep equipment at the facility in good operating condition. The system provides a
summary at the beginning of each week of all equipment scheduled for maintenance that
week. Regular maintenance is performed on such things as the Rotocyclone and. the
Green Tire Paint booth; both of which have a potential to send particulate matter out of
the. plant and into the environment. Examples of the preventive maintenance forms are
shown in Appendix C. Maintenance activities performed are recorded in the system.
3.1.5 Integrated Spill Prevention, Control & Countermeasure Plan
Michelin has implemented an Integrated Spill Prevention, Control and
Countermeasure plan which combines the procedures outlined in 40 CFR.265(c)
(Prevention & Preparedness Plan) and 40 CFR.112.7 (Spill Prevention, Control, &
Countermeasure plan). It outlines plant operations, ' oil and hazardous substances used
or generated, responsibilities, management practices, equipment, containment
i -
3-2
03/17/04

• procedures, and reporting requirements in the event of an unplanned release into the
P eP g q p
environment.
0
3A.6 Spill Prevention/Response Team
While only 1 minor spill has occurred at the Michelin facility, response procedures
have been established should a spill occur (document EP0013MOO). The emergency
coordinator is to be immediately notified in the event of a spill, and he/she will take all
necessary steps to contain the spill_ Michelin has several employees trained to be
members of the Spill Team. Those individuals are trained to utilize containment
equipment (absorbents, bags, dams, etc.) to contain spills. All spills are reported using
form EP0015MOO.
3.1.7 Employee Training
Employees at Michelin receive training as dictated by their job responsibilities. All
employees receive an orientation training which includes the following topics:
• OSHA Hazard Communication
• Emergency Evacuation Procedures
• Lock Out/ Tag Out
• Plant Safety Policies
• Hearing Conservation
• Fire Equipment Codes
• 'Fire Extinguisher Training
Some employees receive the following training programs:
• HAZCOM Training - Facilities group trained to handle hazardous
materials
• Forklift Training
• Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan / Integrated SPCC & PPP
• ISO14001 Environmental Management
Management and production employees receive training on the Integrated Spill
Prevention Control & Countermeasure plan and the Storm Water Pollution Prevention
plan annually. Records are kept by the Training Department.
3-3

•
•
31.8 Security
Unauthorized access is discouraged by means of a fence around the entire facility,
video camera surveillence, and several "No Trespassing" signs. Entry is controlled by
electronic access cards and a computer system. Public access is only allowed by
prearranged visit or presentation of a legitimate business need to office personnel or
Shipping & - Receiving personnel. Additionally, all visitors must sign in and out and
wear visitor passes while at the facility.
3.2 MEASURES AND CONTROLS FOR SPECIFIC POLLUTANT SOURCES
Section 2 of the SWPPP plan presented a site assessment of the Michelin facility
and identified 11 potential pollutant sources. The existing measures and controls for
these source are described in Table 3.1.

i CHANGES TO INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES
The retread operation was removed from the Norwood site of Michelin
Aircraft Tire Corporation. This eliminated two of the potential pollution
sources previously listed: the bagfilter / cyclone operation used to accumulate
the rubber particulates (grindings), and the trailer formerly stationed outside to
capture the rubber dust as it was funneled from the collector (the area around
was a potential source of pollution).
The Lacolene unloading station was improved by the addition of a concrete
containment area designed to capture the contents of an entire tanker should it
rupture during the transfer or unloading of the solvent. The station has
drainage (under lock and key) and is inspected for accumulated rainwater.
Any water is inspected for oil and debris before being released through the
dike drain.
- A revised "Spill Reporting Procedure" and "Spill Reporting Form" were
developed and implemented throughout the plant.
An improved "Hazardous Waste Control Procedure" was developed and
. implemented.
A "Facility Security Plan" was developed and implemented as required of all
shippers & generators of Hazardous Waste by the Dept. of Transportation.
- The use of Chlorine gas was discontinued at the site and replaced with an
environmentally friendly system. This eliminated the only Extremely
Hazardous Substance in use at Norwood.
- The Norwood site of MATC is implementing an ISO14001 environmental
management system. The site plans on obtaining outside certification by the
end of 2005. All employees will be involved with the development,
monitoring and sustaining of the system.

Re: Michelin Aircraft Tire Corporation
Norwood, NC
Dear Mr. Bennett -
Certified P 502 571 702
December 4, 1998
On behalf of the site in reference, I am pleased to submit an application for a
NPDES permit to discharge storm water. Forms 1 and 2F, a storm drainage
drawing, an excerpt from a USGS map and a check in the amount of $400.00
are enclosed.
This plant was a participant in the group application for storm.- water permits
sponsored by the Rubber Manufacturers Association. Samoling data from a
fraction of the group were provided with the application. For that reason, the
Norwood facility did not sample its storm flows for this application.
An important distinction for the Norwood facility is that it does not receive or
handle zinc oxide as a raw material. Other plants mix the rubber stock used at
Norwood in which zinc oxide is an important ingredient. Once mixed into the
bulk rubber, the zinc oxide is encapsulated in the matrix and generally not
available as'a storm water contaminant. We regard this arrangement as
beneficial for storm water quality.
May I express appreciation to Mr. William C. Mills for his guidance and
assistance. Please feel free to contact me at (864).458-0379 as you wish.
Sincerely,
Michelin North
