We regret to inform you that there was an omission of testing in parts of 20 i 2 and 2013. The responsibility for this testing was with the plant manager at that time Mr. Charles Bullard. There was never any knowledge or indication given that these samples were not gathered in a timely manner and in accordance with permit mandates. We had been given notice by Mr. Bullard in late 2013 that he was overwhelmed with plant duties. To that end, we were able to convince AD1 former retired plant manager and HS&E specialist, Mr. Hugh Croom, to provide part time services begun December, 2013, to assist specifically with AD[ health, safety, and environmental issues. Unfortunately, this assistance did not abate the negligence and shortcomings of Mr. Bullard in plant operations, and apparently on other routine requirements; and Mr. Bullard was terminated in April, 2014. Again, with embarrassment, we do not have any results for testing in parts of 2012 and 2013. All testing for 2014 was done under the guidance of Mr. Hugh Croom and those results are included again with this report. We have no reason, other than negligence, for why these tests were not conducted in 2012 and 2013, as there certainly were no other conditions or limitations at the plant facility that would have restricted such activity. We are very confident of the job Mr. Croom has done and the plans that he has put in place. Additionally, we have office personnel to specifically verify period testing and reporting as a backup measure to assure that activities, such as stormwater testing, are not strictly in the domain of one individual; and to assure that proper monitoring, testing, reporting, etc. is always maintained in a -responsible, professional, and timely manner. We appreciate your consideration and pledge to subscribe to all mandates and regulations of our NC stormwater permit. Please do not hesitate to contact me if there is any assistance I can provide.

The second part of this paragraph which describes the specific parameters that must be monitored is tailored to each individual permit. Tier One, Tier Two and Tier Three Tiered responses are now required in all NPDES industrial stormwater permits. apologize for not having pointed this out specifically in the cover letter with your draft permit. We first began implementing tiered responses in 2007, after your permit was last renewed, it appears. Part III Section A.2 This section on Compliance and Liability is standard language and is included in all NPDES Industrial Stormwater permits. Also, we will be responding to the items requested in your letter next week. Thank you.

I'll be very interested to see your inspection report from this most recent inspection as well as past inspections. As we discussed, please look over the attached materials and fill out what you can on the Staff Report Request. It needs your signature and Dan's before sending back to me. And, fyi, I spoke to Mark Walton with Walton Engineering on 8/13/2014. He said they were going to prepare a new site map that has the topo lines and outfall location They were also going to try to track down the missing data from 2012- 2014. Apparently, there were some problems with the old management at the facility, and sampling may not have been getting done. But I haven't receiv'ed any of these things from them yet. I'll follow up with them again, but if you happen to talk to them sooner, please ask them about these items if you don't mind. Thank you!!

I've spoken with the permittee's consultant at Walton Engineering — they're involved only in the application preparation and not in site management. I've left a message with Andy Simmons, who I believe is one of the owners, but haven't heard back from him yet. I wanted to get some information from him about where exactly they're taking the sample, as well as the other issues I outline in the attached staff report. Please let me know if you have success getting in touch with him. I also need to get verification from the company about the correct contacts for the permit/facility.

NO R North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality Pal McCrory Charles Wakild, P. E. Governor Director May 10, 2013 Mr. Andy Simmons, President American Distillation Company, Inc. P.O. Box 400 Leland, NC 28451 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection — NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000244 American Distillation Brunswick County Dear Mr. Simmons: John E. Skvarla, ill Secretary On March 20, 2013, Steve Pusey and Tom Tharrington, of the Division of Water Quality, Wilmington Regional office, performed an inspection of the subject facility. This inspection covered both the requirements of the Individual Stormwater permit NCS000.244, and the General Wastewater permit NCG500148 for cooling tower 1 boiler blowdown. Previously on April 22, 2010, a Notice of Violation was issued for permit and stream standard conditions on the General Wastewater permit NCG500148. At that time, process wastewater was being discharged to the cooling towers, which was in violation of the permit. The General Permit NCG500148 allows discharge of non -contact water only. The piping from the process wastewater to the cooling towers has now been disconnected, and all process wastewater is sent to the Northeast Brunswick Wastewater Treatment Facility. The inspection report for this permit will be issued separately. In reference to the Individual Stormwater Permit NCS000244, the following items should be addressed to prevent problems in the future: Although there is only one outfall shown on the current site plan where the swale enters the stream, there is also a valve at south end of the stormwater containment pond that, if opened, could drain to a vegetated area, then to the stream, if this is an outfall, it should be identified as an outfall on the site map. Note that this outlet and other outlets can be consolidated to drain into the State stormwater pond, once it is constructed. However, all water must be tested and meet approved pollutant limits before being discharged to the State stormwater pond. The site plan should be updated to include the complete State stormwater pond and its associated inlet / outlet connections. If all outlets from the plant site are consolidated to drain to this pond, the.new outfall would be located at the vegetated filter strip near the pond outlet. 2. Tank 23, which contains distillation process wastewater, and several other above ground storage tanks, which may have product or waste in them, located in the area behind the cooling towers, do not have secondary containment. Tapk 23 and possibly the other adjacent tanks should be evaluated for requirement of secondary containment. Wherever feasible, above ground storage tanks should be surrounded by some type of physical containment (impervious dike, berm, or concrete retaining structure) to prevent runoff in the event of a failure or leaking transfer valve. Note that any resulting unpermitted discharge would be a violation of the Clean Water Act 3. Qualitative inspection records should be provided on current DWQ forms in future. 4. Significant erosion was noticed in two (2) places, one area at the north end of the stormwater containment pond on the berm, and the other one further north along the berm. These areas should be repaired and stabilized with vegetation as soon as possible. The liner in the stormwater containment pond shows significant wear and is torn in several places. This could allow contaminated stormwater to leak out through the bottom and/or through the adjacent berm. It was discussed that the liner would be replaced.

X /SUMMARY / ADDITIONAL COMMENTS There are two (2) locations in the yard area that contain stonnwater runoff. Each area has a locked valve. The water here must. ae sampled and determined as "clean" before it is released through the valves to the outfall. There is also a discharge valve at the south end of the stormwater containment pond that, if opened, would drain to a vegetated area and then to the stream. If this valve is ever opened, it should be evaluated as an outfall and shown on the site map. Alternately, it can be routed to the State stormwater pond once it is constructed. 2. Tank 23 contains distillation process wastewater. Therefore, it has been physically disconnected from the cooling towers. It also has a locked valve so that the wastewater is not sent to the stormwater containment pond. Instead, the contents of this tank are sent to the POTW for treatment. This tank and possibly other adjacent tanks should be evaluated for requirement of secondary containment. 3. lender Section C, Qualitative Monitoring, the permit states that all qualitative monitoring will be performed twice per year, however Table 4 of this section states that monitoring will be performed quarterly. Please perform quarterly monitoring until further notice. K. RATING LEVEL (CIRCLE ONE: 1-6) I. Industry in substantial compliance 2. Minor deficiencies noted. Revisit scheduled for (date). 3.

Identify all records that were reviewed. Qualitative records through 0311112013 have been reviewed. Qualitative inspection records should be provided on current DWQ forms in future. O. Explain how Secondary Containment is being used and whether these measures are being properly maintained. [Did you observe that the secondary containment had release valves (were they open, locked etc.), was there water, waste product, sheen, etc observed within the secondary containment area? Explain your observations] No wasteivater was found within containment areas. Several large bulk tanks with product or waste in them, including Tank 23, are located outside ofsecondary containment areas behind the cooling towers. P. Housekeeping and best management practices (maintenance of BMPs) status. Fair. Drummed storage areas need secondary containment where drums have product or waste in them. Airy hazardous waste storage pads require secondary containment. Q. Identify outfalls and receiving waters. List any observation or concerns. There is one outfall on the plan where the Swale enters a vegetated area and then stream. There is also a valve at south end of the stormwater containment pond that could drain to a vegetated area then stream. If this is an outfall, it should be identified as an outfall on the site map. Note that this outlet and other outlets can be consolidated to drain into the State stormwater pond, once it is constructed However, all water must be tested and meet approved pollutant limits before being discharged to the State stormwater pond.

Comment STORMWATER MANAGEMENT AND BMP SUMMARY 2.3 Secondary Containment Concrete block secondary containment walls are provided around the West Tank Farm, Production Pad Area, Utility Area (tanks) and South tank Farm. Each of the four containment areas on these pads are equipped with a sump pit and pump. The Railside Tank Farm does have concrete block containment but without the sump pump system. Procedures for releasing stormwater accumulating in these areas will be described in the Spill Prevention and Response section below. 2.4 Best Management Practices (BMPs) A Stormwater Management system has been designed, permitted and is currently under construction. Stormwater will be conveyed through swales to a wet detention pond. After drawdown, runoff will be conveyed by outlet spreader through a vegetated filter strip. There is a stormwater pond that is currently in use on site. The pond is designed to catch runnoff from the ground's natural slope. Stormwater collected from ADI's tank areas and sampled to determine if it is to be released or must be treated. The following chart shows the requirements for water to be discharged. 2.5 Benchmark Values for Analytical Monitoring Dischar a Characteristics Units Benchmark Biological Oxygen Demand, 5 day m /L 30 Chemical ORgen Demand m 1L 120 Total K'eldahl Nitrogen m IL 20 Oil and Grease m IL 30 H Standard 4.3-9 Total Suspended Solids m IL 100 Iso ro al Alcohol m /L 4,300 Methanol m /L 7,700 Ethanol m IL 3,900 T-Butyl Alcohol rrm IL 3,200 If sampled stormwater that does not meet the standards listed in their stormwater permit, then it is pumped -to Tank 50 where it is enters a cleaning process. The stormwater is air stripped to remove volatilds, then it is run through a sand filter. 'At this point it is ready to be retested and sent to POTW if below the discharge limits. Stormwater that meets the stated discharge limits'is discharged through a Swale that nuns into the Cartwheel Branch Creek. Inspection of Stormwater Conveyances The following procedure will be used to limit or prevent erosion associated with stormwater systems. A) 1. Periodic inspections (semi-annual minimum) will be performed on the entire stormwater system in conjunction with log sheets 2. A Log sheet will contain: Date and time Signature of inspector Work order number for any required repairs Work required under remarks Work completed date 3. These records will be kept in the main control room for a period of five years. B) All tanks and equipment will be inspected during the 6 A.M. daily inventory for any signs of leakage. Any leaks detected will be reported as outlined in the spill prevention/response program in this manual. C) A preventative maintenance program is outlined in the American Distillation, Inc. Process Safety Management (PSM) manual for process equipment reliability. Michael F. Easley, Governor William G.

Valve leading to wetlands located at the west end of the large stormwater retention pond needs to be identified as an outfall and included on the site reap. Monitoring will be required prior to any release. 4. Adjacent to the Stormwater swale is an area of old equipment and metal parts. It appeared there was a spill of petroleum products to the ground which requires proper clean up and disposal. 5. There was a discharge of oil to the swale in the proximity of the petroleum spill on the ground. Division Representative asked that it be cleaned up from the swale immediately using booms, please verify that this has been done. b. Many bulk tanks are used on site for storage of product to be tolled and final product. The tanks in some cases are in extremely corroded condition. Mr. Croom indicated the tanks are inspected and the structural integrity monitored on a regular basis. Please include the dates of inspections and the results of the inspections in the SWPPP amendments each time this activity is conducted. Comment on the actions taken as a result of the recommendations from those inspections. 7.—Divi non dkgm sentatives=re twn&-d-that-analytical=rmnitonng�of-storniwgter°in-clude,anslyses-that,demonstraiethe absence`o€organics- that�canacat�be:detected.by=site:(sheen,Soam, c� olor,.miscibility}.prier=to:any--release from:secondary:enntain=uv.smxtures!in� accordance=with Tablecl:�- Analytical Monitoring requirements. Results should be compared to the benchmark cutoffs given in Table 3 of your new permit. Should values exceed the benchmark, the permittee should identify an appropriate disposal option rather than discharge to surface waters of the State. Mr. Croom was informed that the upcoming benchmarks in the renewed permit should serve as an indicator for concern should stormwater analytical results exceed those levels. Division Representatives discussed the high concentrations present in the discharges'in July and October of 2003, indicating this was an example of a slug of organics that had been discharged with stormwater. Those levels indicate*Vili accuued;but.water,documented-in,the�qualltative:urspsetions: ' supports:the.request.ta_ranai the-contentt%f-1 e-s6C6ndafy containment-structur se p o�'to-any~release. It is possible that the organics'present in that stormwater discharge may have not been obvious by visual inspection alone. 8. The stormwater pollution prevention plan also requires an SPRP (Spill Prevention and Response Plan) component identifying potential pollutant sources based upon a materials inventory. That was not seen in the SPRP. 9. Hazardous waste storage area needs to have secondary containment. Drum storage area needs secondary containment due to the hazardous nature of the materials and is a requirement of the SPRP. 10. Distillation process wastewater is sent to Tank 23 for recycle if contaminants are too high to discharge or sent to the cooling towers and boilers for reuse- The blowdown is sent to the small stormwater pond. Boiler Blowdown is sent to the small stormwater pond and reused in the cooling towers. The Wilmington Regional Office requests that NCG500148 be consolidated under NCS000255 and monitored in accordance with that permit since the source water is of questionable quality and pass through and concentration of contaminants may pose problems. It is also co mingled with stormwater. The NCG500000 permit does not provide stringent enough monitoring to ensure protection of surface waters. ..,you,�r yi ai-. v.,�.:zja �7 i i`i� �r�,'i°:,7.

Explain how Secondary Containment is being used and whether these measures are bring properly maintained. (Did you observe that the secondary containment had release valves (were they open, locked etc.), was there water, waste product, sheen, etc observed within the secondary containment area? Explain your observations] No wastewater within containment areas. Several large bulk tanks outside of the secondary containment areas had product or waste material in them with no locking mechanisms. There were indications of past spills -on the tank pad -areas outside the containment area. The tanks located near the small stormwater containment pond did not have a surface graded towards a sump that could isolate a spill. If a spill were to occur it would make it to sandy soil and if large enough to the stormwater ditch. P. House keeping and best management practices (maintenance of BMPs) status. Fairly good, however drummed storage areas need secondary containment considering the hazardous nature of the materials. The hazardous waste storage pad requires secondary containment. Q.

P.O. Box 400 Leland, NC 28451 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection — NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000244 American Distillation Brunswick County Dear Mr. Simmons: On October 23, 2015, Steve Pusey of the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources, Land Quality Section, Wilmington Regional office, performed an inspection of the.subject facility. This inspection covered the requirements of the Individual Stormwater permit NCS000244. Since the construction of the new State stormwater pond, the site has changed significantly; therefore many features have been revised on the site plan. In reference to the Individual Stormwater Permit NCS000244, the following items are required and have been accomplished: 1. At least two (2) internal sample points are needed in order to effectively monitor the stormwater discharge; one for the eastern drainage and one for the western drainage area. Three (3) sampling points are noted on the site plan. We recommend that a shutoff valve and a method for bypassing the stormwater for further treatment be supplied for each of these sampling points. Valves should be normally locked and opened only after water is tested and determined to meet the benchmarks shown in the permit. A separate single sample point is required for the DMR report, located either at the pond outlet structure or at the outlet.pipe flared end section (FES). By sampling from all these points, you will be able to determine if the BMPs are working effectively. 2. The location on the vicinity map references the main entrance gate and is noted on the map of the facility. The site plan has been updated to include the completed State stormwater pond and its associated inlet / outlet connections and vegetative filter strip. The plan also shows the drainage ditch and piping that connects to the filter strip, and it shows the locations of all sample points, labeled appropriately. Under no circumstances should wastewater be allowed to enter the State stormwater pond. Note that any resulting unpermitted discharge would be a violation of State Stormwater Permit SW8 930501 per 15A North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) 2H .1003, and it would require a wastewater permit. As stated above in item 1, there are three (3) internal sample points noted on the site plan to monitor the stormwater discharge before it gets to the pond. 4. The berm along west side of property and the adjacent area has been graded and seeded. 5. The area where the old stormwater containment pond was located (behind old boiler house) was graded and seeded. This area is adjacent to a sampling location. 6. Riprap has been added at the western inlet pipe in the stormwater pond and in the swale on the other side of the pond berm. 7. A temporary pipe near the yard inlet at middle of drainage ditch has been removed.

Wherever feasible, above ground storage tanks should be surrounded by some type of physical containment (impervious dike, berm, or concrete retaining structure) to prevent runoff in the event of a failure or leaking transfer valve. Note that any resulting unpermitted discharge would be a violation of the Clean Water Act. 9. Qualitative monitoring reports should be provided on current DEMLR forms available on our website at htt�/(portal.nedenr.org/web/lr/npdes-stormwater. 10.

Distillation Inc. for the I" quarter of 2015. On the original sampling date (03/19/15) samples were incorrectly taken directly from the stormwater pond resulting in very high levels of BOD and COD. Therefore, an additional sample was taken from the correct outfall date on the later date (04/09/15). This was the first sampling event since the new stormwater pond and system has been in place, future sampling events will not have this problem.

P.O. Box 400 Leland, NC 28451 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection - NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000244 American Distillation Brunswick. County Dear Mr. Simmons: On January 7, 2015, Steve Pusey of the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources, Land Quality Section, Wilmington Regional office, performed an inspection of the subject facility. This inspection covered the requirements of the Individual Stormwater permit NCS000244. Due to the issuance of a renewed permit effective Jan. 1, 2015, an amendment to the SWPPP is due within 90 days or by the end of March, 2015. In addition, since the construction of the new State stormwater pond, the site is changing significantly; therefore many features must be revised on the site plan. In reference to the Individual Stormwater Permit NCS000244, the following items should be addressed to prevent problems in the future: ,/I All stormwater must be tested and meet approved pollutant limits before being discharged to waters of the State. It appears that two (2) sample points are needed in order to effectively monitor the stormwater discharge; one for the eastern drainage and one for the western drainage:area. We recommend that a shutoff valve and a method for bypassing the stormwater for further treatment be supplied for each of these sampling points. Valves should be normally locked and opened only after water is tested and t� J-'' ' a��i • determined to meet the benchmarks shown in the permit., A separate single sample point is required for the DMR report, located either at the pond outlet structure or at the outlet pipe flared end section (FES). 1`v By sampling from all these points, you will be able to determine if the BMPs are working effectively. (2.) The GPS coordinates to be used for location on the USGS vicinity map should reference the centerline of the main entrance at the gate. The reference note on the map should point to the facility. (3 The site plan should be updated to include the completed State stormwater pond and its associated inlet / outlet connections and vegetative filter strip. The plan should also show the drainage ditch and piping thatconnects to the filter strip, and it should show the locations of all sample points, labeled appropriately. Under no circumstances should wastewater be:allowed to enter the State stormwater pond. Note that any resulting unpermitted discharge would be a violation of State Stormwater Permit SW8 930501 per 15A North Carolina Administrative Code (NCAC) 2H .1003, and it would require a wastewater permit. As stated above in item 1, there should be two (2)samplepoints, one for each pond inlet, to monitor the stormwater discharge before it gets to the pond. ,/4. The berm along west side of property and the adjacent area should be graded and seeded. �5 The area where the old stormwater containment pond was located (behind old boiler house) needs to be graded and repaired as needed. It should be able to transport runoff from the cooling tower area and a ' possibly be-used-for'storage-o€--stormwaterof-prier-to;a-controhvalve. It appears that this area could be used as a sampling point if so desired. Another potential location for sampling would be at one of the new drop inlets prior to the stormwater pond.

Riprap should be added at the western inlet pipe in the stormwater pond and in the swale on the other side of the pond berm. 1 7. A temporary pipe near the yard inlet at middle of drainage ditch should be removed. ./ 8. Wherever feasible, above ground storage tanks should be surrounded by some type of physical containment (impervious dike, berm, or concrete retaining structure) to prevent runoff in the event of a failure or Ieaking transfer valve. Note that any resulting unpermitted discharge would be a violation of the Clean Water Act. 19. Qualitative monitoring reports should be provided on current DEMLR forms available on our website at hn:Hpgrta l . neden r. orp/web/I r/npdes-storm water.

The water here must be sampled and determined as "clean" before it is released through the valves to the stormwater pond. If not "clean", water must be sent to the POTW. One (1) DMR sample location is required at either the pond outlet structure or the pond outlet pipe FES. All sample locations must be clearly identified on the site plan. 2. Tank 23 contains distillation process wastewater. It has been physically disconnected from the cooling towers. It also has a locked valve so that the wastewater will not be sent to the stormwater pond. Instead, the contents of this tank are sent to the POTW for treatment. Tank 50 (air stripper) is used to clean the process wastewater before being sent to the POTW. 3. In accordance with the permit, all monitoring is to be performed quarterly. of 4 �- : s.S♦^'.�[A.i�'�.r�r.-T� s Y�i%n'Y.u"�i+#'?T3�;�"„zv Sc'aY.- _i°`�--.-t�`�:1''C 4'`ti''t'.�ee�a ' 'j`T�'�a-?��.'.d``-��"r. ���:�rrC'��� 1.

Explain how Secondary Containment is being used and whether these measures are being properly maintained. [Did you observe that the secondary containment had release valves (were they open, locked etc.), was there water, waste product, sheen, etc observed within the secondary containment area? Explain your observations] Secondary containment is used for the process area, tank farm, and other small containment areas. No wastewater was found within these containment areas. Several large bulk tanks with product or waste in them (including Tank 23 which holds process wastewater which is sent to the POTW for treatment), are located outside of secondary containment near the cooling towers. P. Housekeeping and best management practices (maintenance of BMPs) status. Fair. State Stormwater pond is under construction. Q. Identify outfalls and receiving waters. List any observation or concerns. Previously, there was but one outfall on the plan where the swale entered a vegetated area and then stream. This is the location where samples were taken. Due to changes at the site in 2014, it appears that there will now be two (2) sample locations at areas prior to entering the stormwater pond and one DMR sample point at the pond outlet. All runoff water must be tested and meet approved pollutant limits before being discharged to waters of the State. R.

After my recent inspection for the State Stormwater permit and after going over the comments in our last inspection of January 14, 2015,1 have the following new comments: 1. Per our conversation, multiple internal sample points are being taken in order to determine whether the stormwater runoff meets the criteria to be released. Please verify that sample points for the eastern drainage area and the western drainage area are being taken. These samples are used to monitor the stormwater discharge going to each inlet of the pond. In addition, please verify that samples are being recorded for the discharge outlet of the pond and being submitted for the DMR report. 2. Please verify that a sample is being taken in the area behind the old boiler house. This point is needed to monitor the runoff from the cooling towers. 3. Both qualitative and analytical monitoring reports are to be performed quarterly. Please verify that these reports are being submitted. Please send us a response on these items within thirty (30) days.

NCDEFIR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Pat McCrory Governor Mr. Andy Simmons, President American Distillation Company, Inc. P.O. Box 400 Leland, NC 28451 Division of Water Quality Charles Wakild, P. E. Director May 10, 2013 SUBJECT: Compliance Evaluation Inspection — NPDES Stormwater Permit NCS000244 American Distillation Brunswick County Dear Mr. Simmons: Jahn E. Skvarla, Ill . Secretary On March 20, 2013, Steve Pusey and Torn Tharrington, of the Division of Water Quality, Wilmington Regional office, performed an inspection of the subject facility.. This inspection covered both the requirements of the individual Stormwater permit NCS000244, and the General Wastewater permit NCG500148 for cooling tower / boiler blowdown. Previously on April 22, 2010, a Notice of Violation was issued for permit and stream standard conditions on the General Wastewater permit NCG500148. At that time, process wastewater was being discharged to the cooling towers, which was in violation of the permit. The General Permit NCG500148 allows discharge of non -contact water only. The piping from the process wastewater to the cooling towers has now been disconnected, and all process wastewater is sent to the Northeast Brunswick Wastewater Treatment Facility. The inspection report for this permit will be issued. separately. In reference to the Individual Stormwater Permit NCS000244, the following items should be addressed to prevent problems in the future: Although there is only one outfall shown on the current site plan where the swale enters the stream, there is also. a valve at south end of the stormwater containment pond that, if opened, could drain to a vegetated area, then to the stream. if this is an outfall, it should be identified as an outfall on the site map. Note that this outlet and other outlets can be consolidated to drain into the State stormwater pond, once it is constructed. However, all water must be tested and meet approved pollutantlimits before being discharged to the State Stormwater pond. The°site plan should be updated to include the complete State stormwater pond and its associated inlet / outlet connections. if all outlets from the plant site are consolidated to drain to this pond, the new outfall would be located at -the vegetated filter strip near the pond outlet. 2. Tank 23,, which'contains distillation process wastewater, and several other above ground storage tanks, which may have product or waste in them, located in the area behind the -cooling towers, do not have secondary containment. Tank 23 and possibly the other adjacent tanks should be evaluated for requirement of secondary containment. Wherever feasible, above ground storage tanks. should be surrounded by some type of physical containment (impervious dike, berm, or concrete retaining structure) to prevent runoff in the event of a failure or leaking transfer valve. Note that any resulting unpermitted discharge would be a violation of the Clean Water Act 3. Qualitative inspection records should be provided on current DWQ forms in future. 4. Significant erosion was noticed in two (2) places, one area at the north end of the Stormwater containment pond on the berm, and the other one further north along the berm. These areas,should be repaired and stabilized with vegetation as soon as possible. The liner in the stormwater containment pond shows significant wear and.is torn in several places. This could allow contaminated stormwater to leak out through the bottom and/or through the adjacent berm. It was discussed that the liner would be replaced.

There are two (2) locations in the yard area that contain stormwater runoff. Each area has a locked valve. The water here must be sampled and determined as "clean" before it is released through the valves to the outfall. There is also a discharge valve at the south end of the stormwater containment pond that, if opened, would drain to a vegetated area and then to the stream. If this valve is ever opened, it should be evaluated as an outfall and shown on the site map. Alternately, it can be routed to the State stormwater pond once it is constructed. 2. Tank 23 contains distillation process wastewater. Therefore, it has been physically disconnected from the cooling towers. It also has a locked valve so that the wastewater is not sent to the stormwater containment pond. Instead, the contents of this tank are sent to the POTW for treatment. This-tank•and-possibly-otheradjacent-tanks-should•be-evaluated'for requirement- of secondary ,containment-, 3. Under Section C, Qualitative Monitoring, the permit states that all qualitative monitoring will be performed twice per year, however Table 4 of this section states that monitoring will be performed quarterly_ Please perform quarterly monitoring until further notice. :`K. =RATING LEVEL (CIRCLE ONE:,1-� �; c 1.

Mq y 2 vr�� zp10 American Distillation (ADI) has been using treated water along with either county water or well water as cooling tower makeup water since the installation of the air stripper in 2006. After the installation of the air stripper, ADI used it to remove the small quantities of VOC's present in the process wastewater. After running it through the air stripper the wastewater is then filtered through a sand filter and is added to the cooling tower makeup water. As the water is circulated through the cooling tower, additional VOC's are removed through evaporation. Discharge of the makeup water results when the cooling tower blow down is discharged through the bottom of the cooling tower. At this point in the system, the cooling tower blow down is a mixture of makeup well water and the treated process wastewater circulating through the cooling tower. In theory this process should produce a compliant discharge except for the fact that they were discharging treated process water, along with non -contact water through a non -contact permit. When the General Permit COC NCG500148 was originally issued in 1992, ADI was operating without an air stripper. The cooling tower was being operated with county snake -up water and the blowdown was being discharged render NCG500148. The process wastewater was sent to High Rise Service Co. to be treated by complete evaporation. With the increase in business and the high cost of evaporation led ADI to build an air stripper to treat the process wastewater in 2006. At this time the treated water was then added to the cooling tower in place. of the county make-up water. This was done for two reasons. First it reduced operating costs by reducing the need for large scale evaporation and second it reduced the amount of county water used, thus lowering the amount of chlorine m the discharge. This was important because the county water chlorine content exceeded the NCG500148 chlorine limit. This was a concern that NCDENR had expressed to ADI. ADI at no point was trying to hide the fad that the treated process water was being added to the cooling tower. They were simply trying to find an economically viable solution to the chlorine issue and their growing wastewater costs. While reviewing the Compliance Evaluation Inspections for 2007 & 2008, NCDENR inspectors make reference to the process wastewater being added to the cooling tower for rem, Additionally, the inspection reports mention review of the SPRP, which contained a schematic of the cooling tower discharge showing the addition of process wastewater to the air stripper (Figure 3). These inspections reports serve as records that ADI disclosed its operating practices to NCDENR American Distillation has currently ceased all process wastewater discharges. They have physically disconnected the air stripper from the cooling towers. They are currently storing all their process wastewater _—Xe ite., until they can locate a facility that will accept it They are looking into EC FLO bamnxk Both facilities have samples of ADI's wastewater and we are just waiting for the firms sr�As soon as a decision has been made on where to take the wastewater, We will contact you with that information.

NPDES Permit No. NCG500148 Violation of Permit Conditions Stream Standard Violation Brunswick County Dear Sir: While conducting a complaint investigation on March 16, 2010, Linda Willis from the Division of Water Quality, Surface Water Protection Section in the Wilmington Regional Office, noticed a sheen in a continuous discharge to Cartwheel Branch from the American Distillation Company, Inc. facility located at 1690 N.E. Royster Road in Leland, North Carolina. Cartwheel Branch is a Class SC, Sw water of the State in the Cape Fear River. Basin. The discharge of wastewater from the tolling operations are routed through the cooling tower and/or boiler which is in violation of the North Carolina General Permit NCG500000. The General Permit (NCG500000) allows the discharge of non contact water only. You are hereby -required to discontinue this discharge immediately (upon receipt of this notification) and pursue: 1). either the disposal of the process wastewater at an approved disposal facility; or 2). apply for and secure an Industrial User Permit from the Northeast Brunswick Wastewater Treatment Facility for discharge and treatment of the process wastewater at the regional plant; or 3). apply for an Individual NPDES Permit with the Division of Water Quality. Samples were collected in stream'in Cartwheel Branch that indicated pollutants have been discharged to the receiving stream from your facility and have resulted in impacts to the surface waters. Dissolved oxygen was measured to be 0.16 milligrams per liter in the vicinity of the discharge from the cooling tower. The water quality standard for dissolved oxygen for class Sw waters is an instantaneous value of no less than 4.0 milligrams per liter. As a result of the complaint investigation, the following violations are described below: I. Permit Condition Violation II. Stream Standard Violation N. C.

Brunswick County , Item I. Permit Condition Violation The NPDES Permit NCG500000 is specifically for non -contact cooling water, boiler blowdown, cooling tower blowdown, condensate, and similar point source discharges. Contact cooling water discharges require an individual NPDES permit. Non -contact cooling water is defined as water used for cooling which does not come into direct contact with any raw material, intermediate product, waste product or finished product. Item II. Stream Standards 15A NCAC 02H.0211 (3)(b) and 15A NCAC 0211.0220 (3)(b) apply due to the classification of the receiving stream (SC, Sw): Dissolved oxygen: not less than 5.0 milligrams per liter, except that swamp waters (with a minimum instantaneous value of not less than 4.0 milligrams per liter), poorly flushed tidally influenced streams or embayments, or estuaring bottom waters may have lower values if caused by natural conditions. The discharge of process wastewater to the receiving stream caused a pollutant load to the stream that depressed the dissolved oxygen content to 0.16 milligrams per liter in violation of the water quality standard of 4.0 milligrams per liter.

Royster Road in Leland, North Carolina. Cartwheel Branch is a Class SC, Sw water of the State in the Cape Pear River Basin. The discharge of wastewater from the tolling operations are routed through the cooling tower and/or boiler which is in violation of the North Carolina General Permit NCG500000. The General Permit (NCG500000) allows the discharge of non contact water only. You are hereby required to discontinue this discharge immediately (upon receipt of this notification) and pursue: 1). either the disposal of the process wastewater at an approved disposal facility; or 2). apply for and secure an Industrial User Permit from the Northeast Brunswick Wastewater Treatment Facility for discharge and treatment of the process wastewater at the regional plant; or 3). apply for an Individual NPDES Permit with the Division of Water Quality. Samples were collected in stream in Cartwheel Branch that indicated pollutants have been discharged to the receiving stream from your facility and have resulted in impacts to the surface waters. Dissolved oxygen was measured to be 0.16 milligrams per liter in the vicinity of the discharge from the cooling tower. The water quality standard for dissolved oxygen for class Sw waters is an instantaneous value of no less than 4.0 milligrams per liter.

DLS CERTIFICATE #37729 CASE NARRATIVE An effluent sample was received from American Distillation April 23 for analysis of various water quality parameters, trace metals and organics by methods 624 (volatiles) and 625 (semi- volatiles.) The original report on May 18 was issued showing the 624 and 625 below quantitation limit for ali the targei'anaiytes. I-loweve:. nor -target compounds were detected. Tentativeiv identified compounds (TICS) were measured in the 624 and 625 analyses to loop for organic compounds that may have contributed to the BOD detected at 1280 mg/L. Two alcohols were tentatively identified in the 624. While the compounds listed were shown as below quantitation iimit in the original report, the GUMS used in 624 was able to detect these analytes at lower concentrations than the original method (8015) used. (.. Ten tentatively identified compounds were quantified in the 625 analysis. However, this analysis showed dozens of individual compounds in addition to the ones listed on the TIC report. The chromatogram created by the 625 analysis is similar in appearance to a chromatogram expected for a material such as aged diesel or heating oil. The additional compounds not included in the original report may -have had a significant contribution to the BOD measured in the sample. Additionally, the BOD is confirmed by the COD value, 2520 mg/L. between the two parameters.

Provide the Regional Office with a copy of all monitoring reports since 2604 for review. 3. Valve leading to wetlands located at the west end of the large stormwater retention pond needs to be identified as an outfall and included on the site map. Monitoring will be required prior to any release. 4. Adjacent to the Stormwater swale is an area of old equipment and metal parts. It appeared there was a spill of petroleum products tothe ground which requires proper clean up and disposal. S. There was a discharge of oil to the swale in the proximity of the petroleum spill on -the ground. Division Representative asked that it be cleaned up from the swale immediately using booms, please verfy that this has been done. 6. Many bulk tanks are used on.site for storage of product to be tolled and final product. The tanks in some cases are in extremely corroded condition. Mr. Croom indicated the tanks are inspected and the structural integritymonitored on a regular basis. Please include the dates of inspections and the results of the inspections in the SWPPP amendments each timethis activity is conducted. Comment on the actions taken as a result of the recommendations. from those inspections 7. Division Representatives recommended that analytical monitoring of stormwater include analyses that demonstrate the absence of organis that cannot be detected by site (sheen, foam, color, miscibility) prior to any release from secondary containmentstructures in accordance with Table 1. An#]3qical Monitoring re u' Results should be compared to the benchmark cutoffs given in Tible o ermtt. Should values' exceed the benchmark, the permittee should identify an appropriate disposabption rather than discharge to surface waters of the State. Mr. Croom was informed that the upcoming benchmarks in the renewed permit should serve as an indicator for concern should stormwater analytical results. exceed those levels. Division Representaives discussed the high concentrations present in the discharges in July and October of 2003, indicating this was an example of a slug of organs that had been discharged with stormwater. Those levels indicate a spill occurred but was not documented inthe qualitative inspections. This supports the request to analyze the contents of the secondary containment structures prior to any release. It is possible that the organics present in that stormwater discharge may have not been obvious by visual.inspetion alone. S. The stormwater pollution prevention plan also requires an SPRP (Spill Prevention and Response Plan) component identifying potential.pollutait sources based upon a materials inventory: That was not seen in the SPRP. 9. Hazardous waste storage area needs to have secondary containment. Drum storage area needs secondary containment due to the hazardous nature of the materials and is a requirement of the SPRP. 10. _ �, -recycle-i€rontamts odischer �s and bailers for rrn 'z� Boiler Blowdown is sent to the small stormwater nond and reused in, the cooling towers.

Map included M. Develop a Vicinity Map for the file. Map included N. Identify all records that were reviewed. Qualitative records hrough July 2004 (no notice of visible contaminants) Records should show visual observations for the month of March 2007, in lieu of the findings on site during the inspection. Quantitative analyses shows significant contamination left the site via stormater discharge on in July and October of 2003. O. Explain how Secondary Containment is being used and whether these measures are bring properly maintained. [Did you observe that the secondary containment had release valves (were they open, locked etc.), was there water, waste product, sheen, etc observed within the secondary containment area? Explain your observations] _ No wastewater within containment areas. Several large bulk tanks outside of the secondary containment areas had product or waste material inthem with no locking mechanisms. There were indications of past spills on the tank pad areas outside the containment area. The tanks located near the small stormwater containment pond did not have a surface graded towards a sump that could isolate a spll If a spill were to occur it would make it to sandy soil and if large enough to the stormwater ditch. P. House keeping and best management practices (maintenance of BMPs) status. Fairly good, however drummed storage areas need secondary containment consisting the hazardous nature of the materials. The hazardous waste storage pad requires secondary containment. Q. Identify outfalls and receiving waters. List any observation or concerns. One outfall near the large stormwater containment pond needs to be idatified in the plan and in the permit. R.

Provide the Regional Office with a copy of all monitoring reports since 2004 for review. 3. Valve leading to wetlands located at the west end of the large stormwater retention pond needs to be identified as an outfall and included on the site map. Monitoring will be required prior to any release. 4. Adjacent to the Stormwater swale is an area of old equipment and metal parts. It appeared there was a spill of petroleum products to the ground which requires proper clean up and disposal. 5. There was a discharge of oil to the swale in the proximity of the petroleum spill on the ground. Division Representative asked that it be cleaned up from.the swale immediately using booms, please verify that this has been done. 6. Many bulk tanks are used on site for storage of product to be tolled and final product. The tanks in some cases are in extremely corroded condition. Mr. Croom indicated the tanks are inspected and the structural integrity monitored on a regular basis. Please include the dates of inspections and the results of the inspections in the SWPPP amendments each time this activity is conducted. Comment on the actions taken as a result of the recommendations from those inspections. 7. Division Representatives recommended that analytical monitoring of stormwater include analyses that demonstrate the absence of organics that cannot be detected by site (sheen, foam, color, niiscibility) prior to any release from secondary containment structures in accordance with Table 1. Analytical Monitoring requirements. Results should be compared to the benchmark cutoffs given in Table 3 of your new permit. Should values exceed the benchmark, the permittee should identify an appropriate disposal option rather than discharge to surface waters of the State. Mr. Croom was informed that the upcoming benchmarks in the renewed permit should serve as an indicator for concern should stormwater analytical results exceed those levels. Division Representatives discussed the high concentrations present in the discharges in July and October of 2003, indicating this was an example of a slug of organics that had been discharged with stormwater. Those levels indicate a spill occurred but was not documented in the qualitative inspections. This supports the request to analyze the contents of the secondary containment structures prior to any release. It is possible that the organics present in that stormwater discharge may have not been obvious by visual inspection alone. 8. The stormwater pollution prevention plan also requires an SPRP (Spill Prevention and Response Plan) component identifying potential pollutant sources based upon a materials inventory. That was not seen in the SPRP. 4. Hazardous waste storage area needs to have secondary containment. Drum storage area needs secondary containment due to the hazardous nature of the materials and is a requirement of the SPRP. 10. Distillation process wastewater is sent to Tank 23 for recycle if contaminants are too high to discharge or sent to the cooling towers and boilers for reuse. The blowdown is sent to the small stormwater pond. Boiler Blowdown is sent to the small stormwater pond and reused in the cooling towers. The Wilmington Regional Office requests that NCG500148 be consolidated under NCS000255 and monitored in accordance with that permit since the source water is of questionable quality and pass through and concentration of contaminants may pose problems. It is also co mingled with stormwater. The NCG500000 permit does not provide stringent enough monitoring to ensure protection of surface waters. K -- i v MA G LEVEL.

If you do not have a map, draw one or request that the facility provide you one in your written correspondence. Map included M. Develop a Vicinity Map for the file. Map included N. Identify all records that were reviewed. Qualitative records through July 2004 (no notice of visible contaminants) Records should show visual observations for the month of March 2007, in lieu of the findings on site during the inspection. Quantitative analyses shows significant contamination left the site via stormwater on in July and October of 2003. O. Explain how Secondary Containment is being used and whether these measurer _ ; _operly maintained. [Did you observe that the secondary containment had relear- , gives (were they open, locked ctc.), was there water, waste product, sheen, etc observed within .L •�,:ondary containment area? Explain u wastewater within containnit:i— " ; : ;urge bulk tanks outside of the secondary containment areas had product or waste material in them wi no locking mechanisms. There were indications of past spills -on the tank pad areas outside the containment area. The tanks located near the small.stormwater containment pond did not have a surface graded towards a sump that could isolate a spill. If a spill were to occur it would make it to sandy soil and if large enough to the stormwater ditch. P. House keeping and best management practices (maintenance of BMPs) status. Fairly good, however drummed storage areas need secondary containment considering the hazardous nature of the materials. The. hazardous waste storage pad requires secondary containment. Q. Identify outfalls and receiving waters. List any observation or concerns. One outfall near the large stormwater containment pond needs to be identified in the plan and in the permit. R. Take digital photographs to support staff report observations and to provide assistance to future inspectors). No pictures were taken during this visit.

We determined that the existing built -upon area is 92,267 square feet. The total property area is 264,029 square feet. (One acre was added to the property a number of years ago, but after issuance of the Stormwater Management Permit.) The percent impervious is 34.9 percent. After discussions with ADI officials, it is not feasible to reduce the percentage to less than 30 percent. Therefore, we will prepare a high -density permit modification with BMPs. I estimate it will take 60 — 90 days to complete the revised plans and permit modification application. If you have any questions, please call me at 910-259-4800. -Sincerely; 31:f --- cw�lj Mark Walton cc: Andy Simmons WTmtion respmm Tel: 910-2594800 PO Box 895, Burgaw, North Carolina, 28425 Fax. 910-259-1779 [B 1151-ENV-2 STORM WATER SYSTEM 1'Y INSPECTION - ,t•� et�1 - — — — — — + — — — — — — — + — — — — — — — — — — + — — — — — — — — — + — — — — — — — — — — + — — — — — -� ., l.• WORK ; DATE WORK!
