Based on a site visit and information provided, the request has been approved and is effective with the next sampling event. In accordance with 40 CFR § 122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample the outfall 002 as your representative sample. Please note: the permit still requires Qualitative Monitoring be performed at all outfalls, regardless of representative status. In addition, based on your extensive research to identify and document any background levels of benchmark exceedances, and your efforts to remediate these background levels where possible, you are hereby given relief from Tiered sampling. However, DEMLR maintains the right and ability to revisit this determination if metals concentrations cause or contribute to water quality standard violations in the receiving stream in the future. Please append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) or permit to document that representative outfall status has been approved and that you have been given relief from Tiered sampling until further notice. If changes in drainage areas, structures, processes, storage practices, or other activities occur that significantly alter the basis of this approval, representative outfall status may no longer be valid. You should either resume sampling at all - outfalls, or reapply to this office for representative outfall status based on updated information. If you have any questions or comments concerning this letter, please contact Darlene Kucken at (828) 296-4500 or Darlene.Kucken@ncdenr.gov.

The Watts facility was recently in Tier 3 status for metals in accordance with NPDES Stormwater Permit (NC-Gj- 000314 Samples from representative Stormwater Drainage Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006 for the Watts facility indicated levels of copper and zinc above NPDES permit benchmarks for multiple sampling periods, putting the Watts facility under Tier 3 status for zinc and/or copper at Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006. Watts engaged H&H to evaluate the stormwater metal detections and to improve stormwater management for the facility. H&H recommended three key action items which included the placement of stormwater filter socks, addition of limestone riprap in high flow areas, and improvement in the grass coverage density for soil surface stabilization. Watts implemented these recommendations, and stormwater metal concentrations (copper, lead and zinc) significantly decreased based on the October 2015 monthly sampling event, which represented the first stormwater sampling event after these recommendations had been fully implemented. 2923 South Tryon Street, Suite 100 3334 Hillsborough Street Charlotte, NC 28203 Raleigh, NC 27607 www.harthickman.com 704.586.0007 main 1 919.847.4241 main Ms. Darlene Kucken August 24, 2016 Page 2 These decreases were sustained in subsequent sampling events, though zinc and/or copper continued to exceed NPDES permit benchmarks for Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006. Based on these results and the common occurrence of these metals in stormwater, H&H suspected background sources of these metals to be contributing to the collected stormwater samples. Samples were collected from the roof and road runoff during a storm event on October 27, 2015. Relatively high levels of copper, lead, and zinc were found in these samples. These results were reported to the North Carolina Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (NC DEMLR) by H&H in a letter dated November 24, 2015. Elevated metals were confirmed in additional background samples collected November 18, 2015, as submitted with the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) dated December 29, 2015. On January 27, 2016, you visited the Watts site at Watts' request to evaluate NPDES permit compliance. Though the inspection confirmed exceedances of copper and zinc at the sampled outfalls, the inspector indicated that background sources may be influencing the outfalls, and temporarily reduced tiered sampling to a semi-annual frequency. Additionally, the inspector noted that outfall 2 is the only outfall representative of the Watts site without being impacted by off -site background sources. The inspector requested additional background sampling to confirm the initial sampling results. Two additional background sampling events were conducted on April 1, 2016, and April 22, 2016. The results of the background sampling events are discussed below. 2.0 Background Sampling Results Watts collected background stormwater samples from two locations on the roof and two locations on Watts Road, an adjacent road which partially drains into the Watts property upgradient of Outfalls 001, 003, 004, 005, 006, and 007. These background sample locations were sampled during four separate storm events, including samples on October 27, 2015, November 18, 2015, April 1, 2016, and April 22, 2016. Direct rainfall samples were collected in hart � hickman SMARTER ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS S:\AAA-Master Projects\Watts Water Technologies -WWRWWT•004 Quarterly Spindale NC�Background Metals letterlWatts Stor ater Backgromd.docx Ms. Darlene Kucken August 24, 2016 Page 3 addition to the other background samples for the two April 2016 sampling events. The data from the background sampling and the four most recent outfall sampling events are presented in Tables I and 2, respectively. The outfall data includes all data collected after the completion of the stormwater management improvements were completed in October 2015. The data are compared in Figure 2, which demonstrates higher metal concentrations in the background data compared to outfall data. Sampling locations are indicated on Figure 1. Laboratory reports are provided in Appendix A. Relatively high levels of copper (up to 0.438 mg/1), lead (up to 0.0692 mg/1), and zinc (up to 1.89 mg/1) were detected in the background samples, exceeding both NPDES benchmark values and average outfall concentrations since the implementation of the stormwater management improvements. Additional details on background sample results are provided below. 2,1 Road Runoff Results Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006 are currently being monitored for metal concentrations. Amongst these outfalls, only Outfall 002 has a low probability of runoff from Watts Road contributing to the collected stormwater sample. Furthermore, the lowest metal concentrations in outfall samples were generally found in Outfall 002. As such, Watts Road was investigated as a potential contributor to metals detected at the outfalls on -site. Two locations were selected to sample runoff from Watts Road. Road Run Off— 01 DC was taken from the south side of Watts Road across from the distribution center, near Outfall 007. Road Run Off — 02 DR was taken from the south side of Watts Road across from the drains department of the Watts facility, near Outfall 002. Copper (up to 0.438 mg/L) was found in every road runoff sample at concentrations exceeding the NPDES permit benchmark. Zinc (up to 0.224 mg/L) was detected at concentrations exceeding the NPDES permit benchmark in five of the eight background samples. Lead (0.0524 mg/L) was also detected in the October 27, 2015 Road Run Off-02 sample at a concentration exceeding the NPDES permit benchmark. These background samples indicate that the runoff from Watts Road is contributing to the detected metal concentrations at the outfalls. hart --a hickman SMARTER ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS S:tAAA-Muter Pmje \Waus Wale Twj nobgie - W WTtW WT-004 Quarte*ly Spindale NCSwkgmund Metak letteWatts Stot ata B=kgmund.doca Ms. Darlene Kucken August 24, 2016 Page 4 2.2 Roof Runoff Results As buildings on -site take up a considerable portion of the overall area, the runoff from the building roofs was sampled for metals. Two sampling points were selected to monitor the roof runoff on -site. Both samples were collected from the roof of the drains department of the Watts site. Roof Drain #1 Dock was collected from over the loading dock for the drains warehouse, and Roof Drain #2 Evap was collected from over the out of service evaporator room within the drains warehouse. The roof samples were found to contain copper (up to 0.221 mg/L), lead (up to 0.0692 mg/L), and zinc (up to 1.89 mg/L). Copper was, found in every roof runoff sample at concentrations exceeding the NPDES permit benchmark. Every roof runoff sample except the Roof Drain #1 Dock sample collected on April 22, 2016 contained zinc at concentrations exceeding the NPDES permit benchmark. Lead was detected above the NPDES permit benchmark in every Roof Drain #2 Evap sample except on April 1, 2016 sampling event. The April 1, 2016 Roof Drain #I Dock sample contained lead above the NPDES permit benchmark. To identify the potential source of these metals in the roof runoff, Watts checked the coating materials used on the roof, as well as the material of the roof, vents, and other structures. The roof vents are galvanized, and the drains spouts are electroplated with a potential white metal. These materials may be contributing to the metals detected in the runoff samples. Additionally, Watts stated that a reflective white roof sealant known as Kool Seal has been used in select roof locations. A study published in 2008 analyzed the potential for a variety of roofing materials, including Kool Seal, to leach metals (Appendix B). It was reported that Kool Seal has the potential to leach copper, lead, and zinc at low levels. In addition, storage trailers parked on -site also have galvanized roofs and siding that may be contributing similarly to metals at the outfalls. The roof runoff samples suggest that the roofs on -site are made of typical materials and are contributing to the metal exeeedances at the outfalls for the Watts site. hart .11 hickman SMAMR ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS SMAA.MaatarPMjCuUNWattsWater Technologies-WW71wWr-004Quarterly SpindaleN"ackgroundMetals Ietter\WattsStom aterBackground.doc% Ms. Darlene Kucken August 24, 2016 Page 5 2.3 Direct Rainfall Results Two dir� ect raiifall samples were collected concurrent with the two background sampling events in April 2016. The first rainfall sample was collected in close proximity to a galvanized fence, which may have influenced the metal concentrations detected within the sample. This sample was found to contain levels of zinc (2.27 mg/L) and copper (0.0176 mg/L). These concentrations exceed NPDES benchmark values. As the zinc concentration is significantly greater than the outfall concentrations, H&H believes that these data provide runoff data for the galvanized fence rather than the direct rainfall. This supports the conclusion that the galvanized surfaces are contributing zinc and copper to the stormwater onsite. The second rainfall sample was taken from within a parking lot on -site, unaffected by runoff from the galvanized fence. Even so, it was found to contain elevated levels of copper (0.158 mg/L) and zinc (0.35 mg/L). This supports the conclusion that background levels of copper and zinc in rainfall are influencing the outfall concentrations. 3.0 Representative Outfall Status The Watts facility currently monitors stormwater discharge visually at Outfalls 003, 005, and 007, and analytically at Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006. Outfalls 001, 004, and 006 collect stormwater from on -site, as well as runoff from Watts Road. The road runoff has been shown to contain metals at concentrations in excess of the NPDES permit benchmark. The contribution of metals from the road affects the reported concentrations at the outfalls. Due to its isolation from the Watts Road runoff, H&H believes that Outfall 002 is the most representative outfall for the site. The use of Outfall 002 as the single representative outfall was suggested by you after your site visit in January 2016. Outfall 002 drains a portion of the main eastern building on the Watts site. Other than light assembly, manufacturing no longer occurs on -site, and the primary activity is warehousing. hart D hickman SMARTER ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS S:IAAA-Master Ptnjec Watts Watcr TcOhologies-WWI1WWT-004 Quanerly Spin4ltc NCll3ackWound Metals leuer5Walts Stcr atu 13wkground,docx Ms. Darlene Kucken August 24, 2016 Page 6 Warehouse operations are similar across the entire site such that a single outfall is representative. The portion of the Watts facility which drains to Outfall 002 includes a portion of the building roof, a parking area where galvanized roof trailers may be stored, and a loading dock. The drainage basin for Outfall 002 is representative of the entire Watts facility. H&H is requesting that DEMLR approve Outfall 002 as the single representative outfall for analytical monitoring. A Representative Outfall Status Request Form is included as Appendix C. ✓ 4.0 summary The Watts facility has recently implemented improved stormwater management practices which reduced the metals discharged at the outfalls on -site; however, the zinc and copper concentrations still exceed the low NPDES permit benchmarks. In order to identify whether background sources may be contributing to these elevated concentrations, multiple background sampling events were conducted to investigate the influence of runoff from Watts Road, the roof of buildings on -site, and direct rainfall. On average, the copper, lead, and zinc concentrations in these background samples were greater than those recorded at the outfalls. Amongst the background samples, the roof runoff showed the highest average metal concentrations. These elevated concentrations may be due to the roof coating, runoff from galvanized vents, or interaction with the metal roof drains. The presence of metals in the roof runoff supports the conclusion that roofs on -site should be inspected annually to identify degraded materials and to repair or resurface degraded areas, if any. The recommendation for annual roof inspections will be incorporated into the SWPPP for the Watts facility. With the recent improvement of stormwater management at the Watts facility resulting in improved stormwater discharge quality, and the likelihood of current permit benchmark exceedances to be caused by background sources rather than industrial activity, H&H on behalf of Watts is respectfully requesting that the Spindale facility be placed under Tier I status. Additionally, as Outfalls 001 and 006 are influenced by runoff from the railroad and Callahan Koon Rd, and these outfalls, as well as Outfall 004 are influenced by runoff from Watts Rd, 40 hart p hickman SMARTER ENVIRONMENTAL SOUMN5 S:4UA•Muter PmjcaskWatts Water Technologies - W WTiW h7*W Quaterly SpimWc NCUBackgmund Moak Ietta Watts Stut a:m Backgrounddocx Ms. Darlene Kucken August 24, 2016 Page 7 H&H on behalf of Watts is also respectfully requesting formal approval for Outfall 002 as the single representative outfall for the Spindale facility.

Kirby, A.M.ASCE7 Abstract: Development in sensitive watersheds continues to pose environmental problems for receiving waters. One contributor to this lone -term pollution is building and other construction materials. However, the long-term effect of many building materials on the environment has not been quantified due to limited testing of these materials prior to sales and installation. Laboratory "leach" testing of commercially available roofing materials by this research group indicated that the potential for release (primarily nutrients, lighter hydrocarbons, pesticides, and metals) is substantial. Testing of metals' release from aged roofing panels also has shown that the potential for pollutant release still exists after 60 years. The data missing from a complete evaluation of many roofing materials is behavior over the lifespan of the material, including the critical period of initial exposure. The 2 years of runoff data from a pilot -scale testing of these materials indicated substantial concerns regarding zinc from uncoated galvanized metals and copper from treated woods in this early part of the materials' lifespan. plus the potential for long-term nutrient releases in the runoff from several roofing types.

Roofs, storage areas, streets, and loading docks had the highest frequency of moderately toxic and highly toxic runoff samples. Runoff from roofs and paved surfaces had the greatest organic toxicant detection frequencies and the highest levels of detected metals. Boller (1997) found roof runoff to con- tain not only heavy metals, but polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organic halogens as well. In addition to the well known component materials in roofing and pavements. seemingly unrelated compounds have been added to improve performance and durability. and these compounds could be the source of many pollutants detected in the runoff. Based on a review of the literature, other building materials of concern included concrete, paints, and exposed wood/pressure treated wood. A summary of the literature on concrete and asphalt paving can be found in Clark et al. (2002). For paint, the concerns reported were lead and other metals incorporated into the paint itself (Davis and Burns 1999). In New Zealand, limits were placed on the heavy metal content of paints applied to metal construction materials, such as roofs, as an environmental barrier (Kingette Mitchell Ltd. and Diffuse Sources Ltd. 2003). This use of paint as an environmental barrier was. for example. a practice that occurred on a site in the western United States to reduce the zinc release from galvanized metal roofing. A summary of the literature on roofing (both surface covers and materials used as subbases such as treated wood) is presented in Table 1. The older field studies in the table inferred the differ- ences in roofing's pollutant contributions by analyzing runoff from nearby roofs made from different materials, using small areas where atmospheric contributions could be assumed to be similar. Newer studies directly or indirectly measured atmo- spheric contributions in order to isolate the materials' contribu- tions. In addition to the research projects that reported runoff concentrations, others investigated the effects of these materials 638/JOURNAL OF IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE ENGINEERING ©ASCE/SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2008 Downloaded 13 May 2009 to 128.143.22,132.

(1999) investigated the toxicity to juvenile rainbow trout of runoff from British Co- lumbia sawmills and found that much of the toxicity may have been a result of divalent cations, in particular, zinc from galva- nized roofs. Other sources of toxicity included tannins and lignins from the woods. Lebow el al. (1999) tested chromated-copper- arsenate (CCA) treated wood in seawater and deionized water and found that the steady-state release rate of copper was much greater in seawater than in deionized water (vice versa for ar- senic). Seawater testing may be indicative of material behavior when exposed to salt -laced rainwater in the winter. Slormwater runoff in a ditch water near pentachlorophenol (PCP) treated utility poles had chlorophenol concentrations 1.8 time,.,, the 96-h LC50 (lethal concentration for 50% of the salmonid test organisms) (Stranks 1976). As These studies showed. preser- vative release during storms from CCA and other preserved woods was sufficiently high to be implicated in these toxicity studies. These materials, therefore, have to be of concern in the environment since they are used as subbase for roofing, as eaves or, in the case of cedar, as a roofing material itself. Wallinder el al. (2007) and Van Asschc et al. (2003) modeled worldwide copper and zinc runoff rates, respectively, based on runoff rates and concentrations reported in the literature. in addi- tion to laboratory testing on degradation. These results, in com- bination with the runoff concentrations reported in Table 1, indicated that roofing has the potential to be a significant pollutant source in the urban environment, where roofing covers a suhstan- Iial fraction of the landscape. What cannot be determined from the prior roofing runoff stud- ies and the Table 1 results is the contribution to toxicity and runoff pollutant concentrations from the various roofing materials themselves versus contributions from atmospheric deposition. The literature very strongly suggests that these materials contrib- ute to increased runoff pollutant concentrations. This is evident especially when nearby roofs of different compositions produce vastly different runoff concentrations. To address the concerns about pollutant release in the field from common construction materials, laboratory "leaching" studies (Pitt et al. 1999; Clark 2000) were performed. The results indicated that the potential existed for many construction materials to release pollutants into the environment. Concerns about the .environmental impacts of roofing led to the development of newer materials. However, these newer materials do not have readily available results show- ing both their short-term and long-term pollutant contributions to urban runoff. This ongoing research project examined a variety of roofing materials (including subbase materials such as treated and un- treated woods and roofing felts, which may be exposed both dur- ing roof installation and after damage to the roof) to determine their long-term pollutant release after typical installation and ex- posure to the weather. The goal was to develop a better under- standing of how aging and exposure processes impacted the temporal release of pollutants to runoff which, eventually, should translate into a model of pollutant release over the material's life cycle. Methodology This research consisted of two parts: (1) a laboratory leaching study of test coupons (including a simulated runoff event on aged roofing sections, described below); and (2) a 2-year (to date), pilot -scale field study in Pennsylvania. The project focused on roofing and subbase materials commonly used in the roofing in- dustry. The categories of materials investigated during the laboratory -scale survey included the following: I. Roofing materials (galvanized metal, asphalt tar shingles, cedar shingles. plastic/vinyl/fiberglass roofing panels. fake slate roofing, and roofing sealers); and 2, Woods [one (2 X 4) treated with CCA, another (2 X 4) with an alternative waterproofing compound (modified copper combination), and one untreated wood]. The materials, with two exceptions, were purchased from Lowes Home Improvement Stores in Birmingham, Ala., for the labora- tory studies, and in Harrisburg. Pa., for.the field studies. The aged metal roofing panels (---60 years old), used in laboratory studies only, were obtained from a barn in Lancaster County, Pa. One panel 'was on the roof for the entire time and was rusted. The second panel was stored in the barn as a replacement and still had its paint intact. Besides the paint, which likely contained lead, it was unknown whether the panels were subjected to other coating treatments like zinc oxide. The appearance of the panels was similar to galvanized metal. The results from testing these older materials guided the experimental design for the field studies, particularly in terms of monitoring program length, Laboratory "Leaching" Studies The laboratory tests were performed in 2002 using a modified toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) test. This test simulated the exposure of a material or waste to acidic environ- mental conditions. The two modifications to the USEPA- prescribed test were the weight of material (approximately 100-200 g) and the length of exposure [48 It for these tests, using Leachant Solution 1—the more aggressive, lower pH leachani. The pH of Leachant I was approximately 0.5 pH units lower than the acidic rainwater measured at the Penn State Harrisburg (PSH) site]. The resulting leachate for each material (triplicate samples for each material) was analyzed for the following constituents: pH, conductivity, chemical oxygen demand (COD). semivolatile organics, pesticides, heavy metals, major cations. and nutrients. The analytical methodologies were described in Clark et al. (2005) and conformed to methods outlined by EPA or Standard Methods (APHA 1995). The aged roofing panels were analyzed in 2004 using the "leaching" protocols described above, as well as being subjected to a synthetic rainfall applied with a spray bottle over the surface of the material. The formula for the simulated rainwater was from Davis and Bums (1999). The runoff and the original rainwater were analyzed using EPA Method 2009, with the rainwater concentrations subtracted from the runoff results to obtain the contributions from the materials themselves. For these panels, heavy metals were the only pollutants of interest. Pilot -Scale Field Testing Two sites in the eastern United States were selected for the field tests based on climatic differences: the southern site was al the University of Alabama -Birmingham (UAB), while the ntid- Allantic site was al PSH. 'These two sites occur in two EPA rain- fall zones (PSH: Zone 1: UAB: Zone 3) and Iwo different rainfall pH zones (from USGS data. PSH: 4.3-4.5: UAB: >4.8). The roofing materials (whole panels: 1.22 m X 2.44 m, shingles at- tached in sheet rows as prescribed by the manufacturer) were attached to A frames, with slopes similar to those used in residen- tial pitched roofs (Fig. l shows the test setup at PSH). Construc- tion was completed and testing began at PSH in the summer of 6401 JOURNAL OF IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE ENGINEERING ® ASCE 1 SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2008 Downloaded 13 May 2009 to 128.143.22.132.

At UAB, roofing panels and frames were reconstructed in the spring of 2007 as a result of prior hurricane damage. The test panels were placed on each campus in areas with no overhead canopy to obstruct rainfall onto the panels. Installation techniques and fasteners, including spacing of fasteners, matched those used by roofers to the maximum extent practicable. The panels were left covered until just before the first monitored rain event. The field results portion of this paper focused on the PSH site data since the UAB evaluation recently was restarted. For the PSH site, samples were collected for every storm for the first 2 months, with periodic sampling thereafter. The field testing evaluated (he following materials (manufac- turer information provided where available from the store): • Plexiglass (as a control to quantify and background subtract atmospheric deposition); • Plytanium plywood [untreated and pressure -treated (CCA)]; • Severe -weather pressure treated/water sealed planks; • Cedar shakes: • Roofing felt/tar paper-30 lb. (United Roofing Mfg.): • Asphalt fiberglass shingles (Supreme Owens Corning 3-tab [25-year limited warranty] treated for 10-year algae resis- tance): • Rubberized roofing material (similar to the layer on a built-up roof); • Galvanized aluminum, corrugated; • 55% aluminum -zinc alloy coated steel (Galvalunlc)— prepainted: • Asphalt impregnated organic fiber panel (Ondura 2002), cor- rugated; and • Polyvinyl chloride panel, corrugated. Analytes included pH (including periodic direct measurement of rainfall by pH meter in beaker of rainfall collected during a storm the pH was measured as soon as sufficient rainwater was col- lected to submerge the probe lip), specific conductance, COD, nutrients. and heavy metals. These parameters were analyzed using the methods described in Clark ct al. (2005). except for metals which were analyzed. after nitric -acid digestion, by graph- ite furnace/atomic absorption spectropholonletry (GFAA) (Perkin -Ebner Zeeman 5100. Perkin-Elmer) in accordance with EPA Method 200.9, Results and Discussion Laboratory "Leaching" and Simulated Runoff Tests The results from the modified TCLP test were used to indicate if a pollutant "existed" in the material, and whether, over time. it might be released to the environment. The organic data indicated very little potential contributions of specific semivolatile organics (highest leachate concentration=315 µg/L of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, a common plasticizer, in roofing felt). The lack of el- evated bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate concentrations in other samples indicated that this result likely was not due to environ- mental contamination of the samples, but to dissolution of the felt paper in the leachant solution. For the nutrients and metals, all samples were run in triplicate and the resulls averaged after background subtraction of the initial leachant solution concentration. These results are shown in Table 2. Even though each subsample was cut from the same intact panel of material, the heterogeneity of Elie materials themselves was reflected in the high variability seen in the data (in many cases, coefficients of variation were 2.0 or greater). Therefore, these comparisons were not made based on absolute values of the median concentration, but on general observations made from the data. The results from the nutrient testing showed release of ni- trate and phosphate to the leachate, especially of phosphate from the galvanized metal. A review of hot -dip and cold galvanizing process information available online from several manufacturers indicated that phosphorus may be an ingredient in some binders and some wash solutions. The metals' results also showed that significant potential exists for metals to be leached from these materials as they degrade. This was expected for certain materi- als, such as the galvanized metal, the shingles, the treated wood. and several sealers that listed one or more metals as ingredients since certain metals were added as a protective coating or impreg- nated in the exposed surface of the material. Table 2 results high- light the reservoir of pollutants potentially available for release during storm events. The leach testing indicated the "size" of the pollutant reservoir in new materials, but did not address the potential of aged roofing to release pollutants. Two aged (60+year old), painted metal roof- ing panels were evaluated using,both leach testing and simulated rainfall. One panel was exposed to the atmosphere since installa- tion and was rusted across approximately 75% of the surface area, while the other was an intact replacement panel. The panels were subjected to the following tests: (1) a dissolution test in which an approximate 100 g piece of the panel was submerged in concen- trated nitric acid; (2) a leaching test (approximately 100 g) similar to the previously discussed laboratory work; and (3) a simulated rain exposure lest. While these exact material formulations cur- rently may not be available, these results were used to develop the field testing plan and to determine if an "end date" may exist in the pollutant release. The lead results showed (hat releases from the aged panels were between 0.01 and 1 glkg for (he dissolution and leaching tests (not shown). Prior to testing, it was thought that lead would result mostly from what was likely lead paint. However, the test- ing on the bare metal (the nonrusted portion) showed lead con- centrations equivalent to that of the. painted metal, indicating two potential causes: (1) lead was a component of the metal roofing panel itself; or (2) lead was deposited on the bare metal surface and "contaminated" the bare roofing. Unlike copper and iron, lead also was released from the material during "rain." The results for zinc are shown in Fig. 2 as a comparison be- tween the results in the "leach" tests described above and simu- lated rain. The 2002 leach test results were designated as "pristine" panels since they were purchased less than I month before testing. The results indicated that substantial quantities were released from the material during both the dissolution and leaching tests. It also was apparent that "raining" on the material JOURNAL OF IRRIGATION AND DRAINAGE ENGINEERING OO ASCE / SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2008 / 641 Downloaded 13 May 2009 to 128.143,22.132.

Coefficient of variation cannot be calculated because none of the triplicate samples was indistinguishable from the background (material contribution was zero), caused zinc to be released to the environment, although the mag- nitudc of the release was >2 log less Ihan the release from dis- solution and leaching. While these results were not comparable directly since they were not from the same manufacturer and batch, they were indicative of the zinc reservoir that may be avail- able for release into the environment under the right conditions in the order of several grams per kilogram of roofing panel. Com- paratively, the lead. copper, and cadmium releases were 2-4 or- ders of magnitude less than zinc's releases. Pilot -Scale Field Tests The laboratory resting showed that these materials had a reservoir of pollutants that could be released if conditions were right. How- ever, in order to perform these tests, the materials had to be cut to fit the test vessels. This cutting potentially exposed sublayers that would not be exposed during the material's normal life. The concern was that the cuts, in the aggressive environment of the testing, were the source of the pollutants and that the results would not be easily translatable to the field. Since both the PSH and UAB sites were in area,. of the United States with acid rain, these sites were considered ideal for studying the long-term be- havior of inlacl panels (installed according to manufacturer in- structions). Because of the destruction of the UAB lest site during a hurricane and its recent rebuilding, this paper focused on the PSH results. Approximately 2 years of field monitoring occurred at PSH. The results are shown in Figs. 3-6 for four pollutants of interest: nitrate. reactive phosphorus, copper, and zinc, respectively. These results have been background corrected using the concentrations from the plexiglass control panel. Results were not included in this paper for pH, specific conductance, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, ammonia, and lead for every material_ Since this testing occurred well after lead phaseout from gasoline, lead concentrations from the materials, after background correction. were approximately 0 mg/L. pH for all materials were below neutral. with runoff pHs measuring between 5 and 6.5 for all materials except the cedar shakes (consistently approximately 4.5-5 ). For the nutrients and copper graphs, only the results from the treated woods and cedar shakes were incorporated. For zinc, only the galvanized metal and aluminum -zinc alloy coated steel were plotted. These materials were selected for each of these graphs because of the nature of the material -woods composed of nutri- ents in cells, and copper used as a preservative. Galvanized metal and the alloy coated steel both advertised zinc in the product. In addition, the daily rainfall, as reported by the National Weather Service for the Harrisburg International Airport, was included as a hyetograph on each figure. The airport monitoring location is across Pennsylvania State Route 230 from the test site (within 0.5 km of the test site). To confirm that the site was subjected to acid rain, periodic monitoring of rainfall pH was conducted.

Nitrate runoff concentrations for wood products between 3.7 and 6.0. depending on the portion of the storm mea- sured. In addition, the panels were inspected periodically for vis- ible degradation. The field results showed that nutrient concentrations were el- evated early in the materials' lives (Fig. 3 for nitrate as nitrogen. and Fig, 4 for reactive phosphorus as phosphate). Figs. 3 and 4 focused on the wood -based materials only. The woods typically had higher concentrations than the metal -based or vinyl -type roofing for these pollutants. The metal, rubber, and vinyl con- centrations (not shown) were closet to background levels with periodic spikes in the runoff (rubberized roofing reactive phos- phorus spike of 32 mg/L at approximately Day 60; galvanized aluminum nitrate spike of 35 mg/L at Day 50). Similar trends were seen for ammonia. total nitrogen, and total phosphorus. In general, the highest concentrations of these nutrients were found in the runoff from the wood products, and in the case of the nitrate, the untreated wood. This was not surprising since the untreated wood was the first wood product to show visible deg- radation (a split in the wood), exposing the underlayers to the atmosphere. In addition, since these were wood products, the deg- radation of cells and the release of nutrients from the cell mass would be anticipated. Because these periodic spikes occurred throughout the 2-year observation period, including winter, and the control data were subtracted from the results before data 50 40 A O a m 3D p� L 20 a .z 10 D: 0 200 400 600 Age (days) 0 t too E 200 c 3DO 400 80o Fig. 5.

These spikes were not believed to be due to wash -on/ blow -on of fertilizer or grass cuttings, but instead, resulted from the materials themselves. In addition, several of these spikes could be correlated to additional visible material degradation (i.e., splitting of the wood). Good (1993) found that dissolved metals' concentrations and toxicity remained high in roof runoff samples. especially from rusty galvanized metal roofs during first flush and several hours after the rain started, indicating metal leaching continued through- out the events. Figs. 5 and 6 highlight the results for copper and zinc. As noted in the caption, many of the earlier samples from the treated woods had copper concentrations that were very high (upper analytical limit=.5 mg/L; concentrations above 5 mglL were measured using substantial dilution and are estimates only). Lead and arsenic concentrations were near background levels. indicating minimal concerns. This was contrary to the results seen by Khan et a1. (2006). who noted elevated concentrations of ar- senic from treated wood decks. For copper, preliminary results showed that releases were substantially higher than expected for many materials.

The remaining materials from this group showed concentrations near background levels and less than 20 µg/L. Runoff concentrations of copper for the two treated wood panels (Fig. 5) exceeded 5 mg/L for the first 9 months of exposure. Only after 270 days postinstallation did the copper con- centrations from these woods approach the analytical range of the instrumentation. These results indicated that copper continued to be released from these wood products and at levels high enough to exceed the aquatic life criteria and that this release likely was not due to an excess surface coating that would wash off in the first few storms post installation. The literature showed that zinc from traditional unpainted or uncoated hot -dip galvanized steel could be an environmental concern. Fig. 6 compares the zinc runoff concentrations from a traditional galvanized panel and from Galvalume, a prepainted aluminum -zinc alloy coating on steel. The results showed that the zinc runoff concentration was 5-30 mg/L throughout the first 2 years of monitoring for the traditional galvanized metal panel, while the prepainied aluminum -zinc alloy panel was less than 250 µg/L, more than Iwo orders of magnitude less. Whether the reduction in zinc runoff concentration was due to the painting/ coating on the material or due to a different formulation/ application method for the protective coating cannot be dcler- mined from these data. The laboratory -scale research showed that there could be sig- nificant potential for pollutants (especially nutrients and metals) to be released from common roofing materials. However, the laboratory activities did not mimic the cyclic wet -dry weathering (including rainfall, ultraviolet radiation, temperature, etc.) to which these materials are exposed over the course of their 10-50 year life span. Therefore, to better predict the pollutant release over a material's installed lifetime, field testing was started in August 2005 and continues to date. The ongoing field tests confirmed several of the results seen in the laboratory. Met- als, such as copper and zinc, still were being released from ttta- lerials well after any short-term protective coatings should have washed off, indicating that measurable quantities of pollutants may continue to be released in art acid rain environment through- out the material's useful life. This contradicts prior assumptions that releases tended to stabilize to negligible levels over a prod- uct's lifespan. Given the large quantity of these materials installed in the environment, the overall contribution may be significant and deserves further investigation. Conclusions The laboratory leaching results showed that traditional galvanized metal roofing contributed the greatest concentrations of many of the pollutants of interest —specific conductance. cations, metals (particularly zinc), and nutrients. In addition, the.metals' analyses showed that the pressure treated and waterproofed wood contrib- uted substantial copper loads. The potential for nutrient release exists in many of these materials, such as from -the galvanized metal (potentially as a result of phosphate washes and binders used in the material's preparation) and wood products due to natural degradation. Tests conducted in the laboratory on the aged roofing panels suggested that this pollutant release may occur for an extended period of time. The laboratory testing results were limited because they were single tests of a material (which had been precu(, exposing edges and the underlying structure) and were performed under very aggressive conditions. Their results were used to decide whether further investigation through a long- term field study was warranted. The 2 years of field testing that began in August 2005 documented low-level, long-term releases of many pollutants from these materials. These results indicated that investigation of the potential envi- ronmental impact of roofing should be encouraged prior to the material entering the market. In addition, stormwater modeling and management should not ignore roofing when assessing sources of pollutants. Roofs do not simply collect atmospheric deposition and transport it to the drainage system. They also may, .depending on the material's composition and ability to degrade and release pollutants, be a significant source of pollutants in urban runoff. These results, in combination with those generated from the UAB lest site, will be used to develop models that ac- count for the environmental and material characteristics [hat in- nucnee the degradation and release. patterns seen in this study and others.

I had responded to a request to assess this site related to their Tiered sampling and for a possible ROS for the facility late last year. I communicated with y'all about my inspection and sent them a letter saying they should temporarily continue sampling all outfails but on a quarterly basis. As noted at the time and in this report, they had already installed some BMPs, they were sampling for background levels, and direct rainfall. They had also researched that the coating materials used on many flat roofs in the area has metals leaching qualities. They did continue their research and the outcome well documents they are heavily impacted by background inputs, including a road, railroad, and other industrial roofs with the coating materials. I believe that they should receive ROS for the one outfall 002, which is the only outfall that is directly related to their facility. This is my recommendation. I'm just checking in with y'all to let me know if you have any problem with this recommendation. Do I send a letter to this effect? Do you need to send it? Can I tell them by email that they can expect to get the ROS? I also think they should not have to continue the Tiered sampling due to the high background levels of Cu, Zn and Pb coming to the facility. Are you ok with this* Thanks for your input!

'L Kucken, Darlene From: Georgoulias, Bethany Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2016 12:46 PM To: Kucken, Darlene Cc: Bennett, Bradley; Pickle, Ken Subject: RE: Watts Water Technologies - NCG 030251 Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged Darlene, I still agree with my original preliminary conclusion last week — that the evidence points towards most sources (roads/tracks) being beyond their control, If you confirmed no Zn impairment information for that segment, we don't have much in the way of ambient stream sampling results to factor in here. But, some things to consider: One of the big questions here is what to do about the outfalls that include road run-off. Is there any way for them to sample something before that runoff mixes with their industrial site? Or do the other three outfalls even drain any of the areas where industrial activity occurs or materials are stored here? If they do, is there a good case for Representative Outfall Status here that makes sense? (That is not always the easy answer, though, unfortunately.) If they think they are seeing Zn levels influenced by the whitener put on their roof, it sounds like at least one of the outfalls drains that, and presumably it is industrial activity. That 1.89 mg/I of Zn concentration is...wow, big. And if other roofs in the area use it, are those roofs draining onto their property too? Or onto the road runoff they sampled? Have they sampled that same roof drain again to confirm concentrations that high are coming from there? Is it possible that whitener stripped zinc from the roof material itself? It sounds like they've implemented some very good things at their site that have helped. But if they are seeing consistent Zn results that high from the roof drain, that's potentially a major source, and they may need to investigate that further. I might take a balanced approach, considering it's a roof that other facilities nearby have too. Consider allowing them to drop back to semi-annual sampling at their outfalls, on the basis of the other items you outlined (road influence, etc.), but advising more samples of that roof drain. Ask them to follow up after (2-3 more?). How often is it necessary for them to whiten their roof? Have they investigated an alternative for next time, or is it necessary to apply this chemica[ at all if it introduces such a dramatic spike in metals concentrations? If they determine it is the roof whitener application, how can they address this issue specifically in their SPPP to the most practical extent? We don't expect them to buy a new roof, but they should be aware if that much zinc is coming off of it ... uitimately this is part of their industrial property and covered by this permit. At the end of the day, it's up to ARO how to handle this, so you can decide whether to ask them for more or not. You've gotten several of these under your belt, and your experience is something we can really count on_ Thanks so much for all the efforts you've put into working with this and other facilities under permits like the NCG03.

Be sure to check the receiving waters to see if there are any problems with these metals (documented, anyway... maybe the stream was never sampled). I'm working on a permit right now that discharges to a segment impaired for copper. A copper or zinc impairment might affect our decision on what to do next. it's easy to forget to cover that base — but it's one of the caveats to the "we should relieve their monitoring if it's just their roof" scenario; the permittee is still responsible for that source, and we need to factor in water quality information. At first glance, though, the evidence seems to point to other background sources out of their control as well. I'll get back to you on this early next week. Thanks!

The facility is currently under Tier III sampling for Cu and Zn at OF 1,2 and 4 and Cu at OF 6. Given their high sample results, they brought in Hart Hickman environmental solutions firm out of Charlotte to help them figure out how to reduce these elevated levels. They provided me with a thorough report of their analysis. Here's the summary: 1. The facility has 3 operation sections: warehouse, recovery (recycling region) and a very small and yjn light assembly (basically they put two parts together with nuts and bolts). 2. They have implemented 3 key items: stormwater filter socks, adding rip rap in all eroding areas, improving grass coverage density for soil stabilization, and internal policies of sweeping daily in the small area of assembly. 3. Metal concentrations decreased as a result of these efforts, but still remain above the benchmark levels.

Given their high sample results, they brought in Hart Hickman environmental solutions firm out of Charlotte to help them figure out how to reduce these elevated levels. They provided me with a thorough report of their analysis. Here's the summary: 1. The facility has 3 operation sections: warehouse, recovery (recycling region) and a very small and very light assembly (basically they put two parts together with nuts and baps). 2. They have implemented 3 key items: stormwater filter socks, adding rip rap in all eroding areas, improving grass coverage density for soil stabilization, and internal policies of sweeping daily in the small area of assembly. 3. Metal concentrations decreased as a result of these efforts, but still remain above the benchmark levels. They have conducted two samplings since the implementation of these items but results are only available for one of these events. The other one will be available soon. 4. They added sampling of road runoff ( Cu=.438 mg/L and Zn=.178 mg/L) and directly from the roof drains (Cu=.205 mg/L and Zn=1.89 mg/L and .338 mg/L at another drain). S. Outfalls in this same sampling showed Cu= .072, .005,,055, .037 and Zn=.073, .028, .196 and .117 6. Complicating factors: a. OF002 is really the only outfall that is only related to the facility.

Pickle, Ken From: Pickle, Ken Sent: Tuesday, January 19, 2016 3:27 PM To: Bennett, Bradley Cc: Aiken, Stan E Subject: RE: NCG030251 - Tier Three Issues Thanks, Bradley, Talked with Howard Chu. Watts Water Technologv. about their facility in Spindale (Rutherford Countv). NCG0302S1. • Howard is in Boston, Ma., and works incorporate environmental. The Spindale facility is now in Tier 3 based on copper and zinc exceedances. It does not appear that they contacted ARO as per the text of NCG03: they contacted RCO. Stan: I provided the phone number and names at ARO for his contact. • He reports that they are mainly a warehouse, but some assembly of valves takes place on site. The site used to be a brass foundry, but the foundry closed down in the mid-90s. Google aerial photo appears to show a relatively clean site. • Using Bart Hickman as consultants. They have some 'background' sampling to augment the permit sampling in support of a hypothesis that it's in the soils, or otherwise part of the background conditions. I advised we are typically very cautious on our response to Cu and Zn exceedances because sometimes it could indeed be in the soils. However, I also advised that since the facility was a brass foundry, we would expect some substantial amount of evidence before dismissing the possibility of industrial materials being the source. • I advised we have instituted new, higher benchmarks for Cu and Zn since this general permit was issued in 2012. • He requested a meeting. I advised our procedure is to first engage the RO in order to have the benefit of a recent site inspection. He will call Stan in ARO (Rutherford County) to request a site visit. i offered that we in RCO will of course respond to any subsequent request to meet, but we would prefer it after ARO has been on site. • He wants to investigate re-classifying the site as an off -site warehouse. I advised that we would look at the actual on -site activity, and I noted that the presence of Cu and Zn exceedances can't be addressed by switching permits so that he no longer has to test for them (as per NCG08). I also advised that the assembly of valves could make it difficult for us to conclude that this is a transportation activity rather than a metal manufacturing activity. We did not speak to the potential that an off -site warehouse might not be captured by the NPDES reps at all, although that could be another outcome, depending on actual on -site activities. • He wants to discuss the next steps in Tier 3. Presumably leading to an endpoint satisfactory to all. I advised that after ARO has been on site, RCO would be happy to participate in that discussion, if invited by either ARO or the permittee.

Consistent with the February 3, 2010, Approval of Representative Outfall Status, Watts obtained quantitative data for samples from outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006. Based on the results reflected in the enclosed November 2015 DMR, these outfalls remain in Tier III status. In addition to required outfall sampling, Watts obtained samples for pH from outfalls 003, 005, and 007. Those data are also reflected in the enclosed DMR.t Upon receiving July 2015 sampling results, Watts engaged environmental consulting firm of Hart & Hickman ("H&H") to develop additional best management practices (BMP") for the Facility. In order to evaluate effectiveness of those BMPs — and to determine the cause of the recent zinc and copper benchmark exceedences — on October 27, 2015, the Facility sampled outfalls 001, 002, 004 and 006 as well as four background locations. 2 A letter report from H&H, describing the results of that effort, was enclosed with Watts' October 2015 DMR, and an additional copy is enclosed with this correspondence. The Facility then re -sampled the four background locations identified in H&H's letter report during the November 2015 sampling event, and those results are consistent with the previous results.3 In summary, available data indicate that copper and zinc present in the Facility's storrn water discharge likely originates from "non -industrial" sources — either the Facility's roof (which ' As documented in the June 2015 DMR, pH of precipitation in and around Spindale is commonly below the benchmark range in the General Permit. Watts will continue to collect "neat" precipitation samples, analyze those samples for pH, and include the summarized results in each DMR. in accordance with footnote 1 of Table 3 in the General Permit. 2 Consistent with the February 3, 2010 Approval of Representative Outfall Status, the Facility did not sample outfalls 003, 005, or 007. 3 The enclosed lab report contains data for samples taken at locations identified as Road Run Off -01 and -02 as well as Roof Drain #1 and #2, which are the same background sampling points discussed in H&H's letter report. Watts Regulator Company Since 1674 watls.com is not exposed to industrial operations) or the roadway adjacent to the Facility's storm water outfalls. The results also suggest that the Facility's additional BMPs will resolve previous exceedences of the lead benchmark. As mentioned in my previous correspondence, I respectfully request to schedule a meeting with representatives of the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources to discuss the results of a storm water compliance audit performed by AECOM and Watts' efforts to implement additional BMPs at the Facility.

Due to the number of consecutive precipitation events at the Facility during October 2015, Watts was unable to obtain a sample during a measurable storm event that was preceded by at least 72 hours without precipitation and, consequently, the DMR indicates "No Flow" for the October 2015 monitoring period. Nonetheless, in order to continue evaluating the additional best management practices ("BMP") utilized at the Facility and to determine the cause of the recent zinc and copper benchmark exceedences, on October 27, 2015, the Facility sampled outfalls 001, 002, 004 and 006 as well as four background locations.[ A letter report describing the results of that effort from the consulting firm Hart & Hickman is enclosed. In summary, the data indicate that copper and zinc present in storm water discharge from the Facility likely originates from "non -industrial" sources — either the Facility's roof (which is not exposed to industrial operations) or roadway adjacent to the Facility's storm water outfalls. The data also suggest that the Facility's additional BMPs will resolve the recent exceedences of the lead benchmark. As mentioned in my previous correspondence, I respectfully request to schedule a meeting with representatives of the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources to discuss the results of a storm water compliance audit performed by AECOM and Watts' efforts to implement additional BMPs at the Facility. Please contact me at your earliest convenience at (978) 689-6070 to arrange a date and time. Sincerely, /� 61 Howard H. Chu Director, Environment, Health and Safety Watts Water Technologies, Inc.

Consistent with the February 3, 2010 Approval of Representative Outfall Status, Watts obtains quantitative data for samples from outfalls 001, 002, 004 and 006. Upon receiving the results of the July 2015 sampling, Watts engaged Hart & Hickman ("H&H") to evaluate the stormwater metal detections and to improve stormwater management for the facility. H&H recommended three key action items which included placement of stormwater filter socks, addition of limestone riprap in high flow areas, and improvement in the grass coverage density for soil surface stabilization. Watts implemented these recommendations, and stormwater metal concentrations significantly decreased based on the September 2015 monthly sampling event. The lead concentrations detected in the outfall samples in September 2015 were below the benchmark value. However, based on the low benchmark values for copper and zinc, these metal concentrations continue to exceed benchmark values as reported in the September 2015 DMR. Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006 are in Tier III status for copper and/or zinc. Monthly 2923 South Tryon Street, Suite 100 3334 Hillsborough Street Charlotte, NC 28203 Raleigh, NC 27607 www.harthickman.com 704.586.0007 main 919,847.4241 main Mr. Mark Kennard November 24, 2015 Page 2 monitoring data continues to be used to evaluate the effectiveness of stormwater improvements and the need for further improvements. Because stormwater metal concentrations have been reduced to low levels with only copper and zinc exceeding benchmarks, H&H suspected that background sources of copper and zinc may be contributing to the detections at the stormwater outfalls. Two background sources were investigated by sampling conducted by Watts in October 2015: I. roadside stormwater runoff from Watts Road because stormwater outfalls receive such water and 2. roof drain runoff from the warehouse building. It is noted that the roof has metal decking and a whitish coating. The roof surface is generally clean and in good condition. In that Watts is proactively addressing the stormwater metals concern, background and stormwater discharge outfall samples were collected on October 27, 2015, although the prior rainfall resulted in sampling under conditions that were not ideal. Approximately 0.2 inches of rain fell on the two days prior to the stormwater sample collection based on precipitation data at a nearby reporting station (Rutherfordton 2.6 WSW). Even though this rain event was not considered to be a qualifying event for completing a monthly DMR, H&H considers these data to be relevant to evaluating the stormwater conditions at this site. H&H has summarized the stormwater sample background and outfall data collected on October 27, 2015 in Table 1, and laboratory reports are also attached. Relatively high levels of copper (up to 0.438 mg/1), lead (up to 0.0524 mg/I), and zinc (up to 1.89 mg/1) were detected in both the road runoff and roof background samples. Detected metal concentrations in the background samples exceed the benchmark values. To compare the background data to the outfall results in a broad sense, H&H calculated average values for the four outfalls and average values for the four background samples. On average, the background concentrations for each metal significantly exceed the outfall metal concentrations. H&H understands that a second round of background and outfall metals data were collected in November, These data will be useful to confirm the October results.

ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS Via Email November 24, 2015 Watts Water Technologies 100 Watts Road Spindale, NC 28160 Attn: Mr. Mark Kennard Re: Stormwater Background Sampling Watts Water Technologies Spindale, NC H&H Project No. WWT-004 Dear Mark: Per your request, Hart & Hickman, PC (H&H) is providing this letter to summarize the results of stormwater background sampling at the Watts Water Technologies (Watts) facility in Spindale, NC. Consistent with the February 3, 2010 Approval of Representative Outfall Status, Watts obtains quantitative data for samples from outfalls 001, 002, 004 and 006. Upon receiving the results of the July 2015 sampling, Watts engaged Hart & Hickman ("H&H") to evaluate the stormwater metal detections and to improve stormwater management for the facility. H&H recommended three key action items which included placement of stormwater filter socks, addition of limestone riprap in high flow areas, and improvement in the grass coverage density for soil surface stabilization. Watts implemented these recommendations, and stormwater metal concentrations significantly decreased based on the September 201 S monthly sampling event. The lead concentrations detected in the outfall samples in September 2015 were below the benchmark value. However, based on the low benchmark values for copper and zinc, these metal concentrations continue to exceed benchmark values as reported in the September 2015 DMR. Outfalls 001, 002, 004, and 006 are in Tier III status for copper and/or zinc. Monthly 2923 South Tryon Street, Suite 100 ! 3334 Hillsborough Street Charlotte, NC 28203 IIj Raleigh, NC 27607 www.harthickman.com 704.586.0007 main 919.847.4241 main Mr. Mark Kennard November 24, 2015 Page 2 monitoring data continues to be used to evaluate the effectiveness of stormwater improvements and the need for further improvements. Because stormwater metal concentrations have been reduced to low levels with only copper and zinc exceeding benchmarks, H&H suspected that background sources of copper and zinc may be contributing to the detections at the stormwater outfalls. Two background sources were investigated by sampling conducted by Watts in October 2015: 1. roadside stormwater runoff from Watts Road because stormwater outfalls receive such water and 2. roof drain runoff from the warehouse building. It is noted that the roof has metal decking and a whitish coating. The roof surface is generally clean and in good condition. In that Watts is proactively addressing the stormwater metals concern, background and stormwater discharge outfall samples were collected on October 27, 2015, although the prior rainfall resulted in sampling under conditions that were not ideal. Approximately 0.2 inches of rain fell on the two days prior to the stormwater sample collection based on precipitation data at a nearby reporting station (Rutherfordton 2.6 WSW). Even though this rain event was not considered to be a qualifying event for completing a monthly DMR, H&H considers these data to be relevant to evaluating the stormwater conditions at this site. H&H has summarized the stormwater sample background and outfall data collected on October 27, 2015 in Table 1, and laboratory reports are also attached. Relatively high levels of copper (up to 0.438 mg/1), lead (up to 0.0524 mg/1), and zinc (up to 1.84 mg/1) were detected in both the road runoff and roof background samples. Detected metal concentrations in the background samples exceed the benchmark values. To compare the background data to the outfall results in a broad sense, H&H calculated average values for the four outfalls and average values for the four background samples. On average, the background concentrations for each metal significantly exceed the outfall metal concentrations. H&H understands that a second round of background and outfall metals data were collected in November. These data will be useful to confirm the October results. hart ` hickman SMARTER ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS S.tAAA-Master Projacts\Wans Water Techmlogies - W WT%W\MT-ON Quwtffly Spindale NC1Watts Stot ate 6ackground.docn Mr. Mark Kennard November 24, 2015 Page 3 We appreciate the opportunity to assist with this project.

Consistent with the February 3, 2010 Approval of Representative Outfall Status, Watts obtains quantitative data for samples from outfalls 001, 002, 004 and 006. Upon receiving the results of the July 2015 sampling, Watts engaged Hart & Hickman ("H&H") to evaluate the stormwater metal detections and to improve stormwater management for the facility. H&H recommended three key action items which included placement of stormwater filter socks, addition of limestone riprap in high flow areas, and improvement in the grass coverage density for soil surface stabilization. Watts implemented these recommendations, and stormwater metal concentrations significantly decreased based on the September 2015 monthly sampling event. The lead concentrations detected in the outfall samples in September 2015 were below the benchmark value. However, based on the low benchmark values for copper and zinc, these metal concentrations continue to exceed benchmark values as reported in the September 2015 DMR. Site outfal I number, 2, and 4 are now in Tier III status for copper and zinc. land outfall number 6 is 2923 South Tryon Street, Suite 100 3334 Hillsborough Street Charlotte, NC 28203 Raleigh, NC 27607 www.harthickman.com 704.586.D007 main 1 919-847,4241 main Mr. Mark Kennard November 23, 2015 Page 2 in Tier III status for copper. Monthly monitoring data continues to be used to evaluate the effectiveness of stormwater improvements and the need for further improvements. Because stormwater metal concentrations have been reduced to low levels with only copper and zinc exceeding benchmarks, H&H suspected that background sources of copper and zinc may be contributing to the detections at the stormwater outfalls. Two background sources were investigated by sampling conducted by Watts in October 2015: 1. roadside stormwater runoff from Watts Road because stormwater outfalls receive such water and 2. roof drain runoff from the warehouse building. 1t is noted that the roof has metal decking and a whitish coating. The roof surface is generally clean and in good condition. In that Watts is proactively addressing the stormwater metals concern, background and stormwater discharge outfall samples were collected on October 27, 2015, although the prior rainfall resulted in sampling under conditions that were not ideal. Approximately 0.2 inches of rain fell on the two days prior to the stormwater sample collection based on precipitation data at a nearby reporting station (Rutherfordton 2.6 WSW). Even though this rain event was not considered to be a qualifying event for completing a monthly DMR, H&H considers these data to be relevant to evaluating the stormwater conditions at this site. H&H has summarized the stormwater sample background and outfall data collected on October 27, 2015 in Table 1, and laboratory reports are also attached. Relatively high levels of copper (up to 0.438 mg/1), lead (up to 0.0524 mg/1), and zinc (up to 1.89 mg/1) were detected in both the road runoff and roof background samples. Detected metal concentrations in the background samples exceed the benchmark values. To compare the background data to the outfall results in a broad sense, H&H calculated average values for the four outfalls and average values for the four background samples. On average, the background concentrations for each metal significantly exceed the outfal I metal concentrations. H&H understands that a second round of background and outfall metals data were collected in November. These data will be useful to confirm the October results.

I did not make an appointment and set up an internal inspection. It does appear that the facility no longer does production as there are shipping trucks pulling in and out to loading docks. The one question I would ask of the facility contact is what the containers are for outside (see attached photo). There are fluids in these containers and they are in secondary containment. However, the secondary containment does not appear to get pumped out and there is standing water several inches deep that is thick with slime and I'm not sure what else. Let me know if you need anything else.

From: Pickle, Ken Sent: Thursday, January 02, 2014 4:54 PM To: Herbert, Laura C; Georgoulias, Bethany; Stepp, Jonathan Cc: Bennett, Bradley Subject: RE: SIC 4225 General Warehouse and Storage Hi Laura, Based on the limited amount i know now, i don't think they need our permit at this location, anymore. They should send in a request to rescind the permit. Warehousing is one of the more convoluted SIC codes we deal with. I always have to go back and re -read the source materials to come to what I think is an answer. OK so startinp with the federal rule for our program at 40 CFR 122.26 b 14 : SIC 42 (except 4221-4225) is categorized as a Transportation sector industrial activity that requires a permit, if they have vehicle maintenance activities. See 40 CFR 122.26(b)(14)(viii). There is really only one SIC code left once you remove SIC 4221-4225, and that is SIC 4226, Special Warehousing. Things like Fur storage, Foreign Trade Zone storage, Whiskey warehousing, and few others. I don't think this SIC fits, and so our federal rule category (viii) doesn't fit, either, for the way these folks operate now. So, it looks like our General Permit NCG08 Transportation is not a fit. • However, SIC 4221 —4225 are captured as industrial activities later on in the same section, under 40 CFR 122.26(b)(xi). So, if the consultant is correct as to the SIC code, they are still captured and a permit is required. However, I'm not sure the consultant has it right wrt SIC 4225. o A part of the SIC code framework is the idea that the coded businesses are more or less independent commercial businesses, offering warehouse space to whoever will rent it. That doesn't sound like our circumstance. This sounds like a inactive manufacturing facility that is now an internal company depot. I think the critical aspect is probably whether or not they really have ceased all manufacturing at this site. o Also, I see that the listed businesses under SIC 4225 can be things like mini -warehouses and self -storage warehouses. The next resource I eo to is tvoically the 1992, 1993 two volume EPA Q&A document that came out when the NPDES industrial stormwater program was initiated. • Per 1992 Volume 1, Question 55, "Is an offsite warehouse associated with a regulated industrial faciiit required to submit an application? No. As stated on page 48011 of the preamble to the November 16, 1990 rule, warehouses of either preassembly parts or finished products that are not located at an industrial facility are not required to submit an application unless otherwise covered by the rule." The 'application' referred to here is on application for a stormwater permit, which is the way the federal rule identifies who is covered by the rule — those folks that have to submit an opplication. So, consider the following possible cases, and our presumed response: o Are they still doing some manufacturing at the 'warehouse'? Then they still need our permit. o Is the warehouse co -located or adjacent to the parent company's manufacturing activity? Then they still need our permit. o Is this a commercial warehousing business? Then, strictly speaking, they may need our permit. And maybe we would seek to retain our current permittee as the permit holder, since he might be in control of the day-to-day operation at the site, whether he owns the warehouse, or not. But, I don't think this is the case you have described. o So, as I imagine the circumstances, it sounds to me like the 1992 EPA Q&A document speaks directly to the circumstances and no permit is required.

They have changed their operation and now fall under the SIC code 4225. The consultant indicated that this is all they do (storage of inventory) do not see a general hermit requirement for this SIC but wanted to confirm with RCO. If a permit is not required, do they just need to send in a letter requesting that their permit be rescinded with an explanation? The consultant also asked if they needed an SPPP if they didn't have a permit. I told her we would encourage it, but that it would not be required by us. Thanks, Laura Laura Herbert, P.E.

This permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). The following information is included with your permit package: • A new Certificate of Coverage (COC) • A copy of General Permit NCG030000 • A copy of the Technical Bulletin for the General Permit • Two copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form • Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations for discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. Your facility has six (6) months from the time of receipt of the permit to update your current SPPP to reflect all new permit requirements. The first sample period of your permit begins January 1, 2013. Your facility must sample a "measureable storm event" beginning during the periods beginning January 1 and July 1 of every year (or, if applicable, report "No Flow," as outlined in Part III, Section E). Also, please note that Tier 3 Actions in Part II of your permit are triggered by benchmark exceedances on four occasions beginning on the effective date of this permit and do not count prior exceedances. The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last COC was issued are noted either in the Draft Permit Fact Sheet that accompanied the public notice (http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/current- notices), or in the Response to Comments / Summary of Changes and Technical Bulletin documents that are posted on the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website with the new General Permit. Please visit http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws(su/npdessw (click on 'General Permits' tab) to review that information for your specific General Permit carefully. 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 Location: 512 N.

Additional conditions for specific industry sectors have been added to the SPPP requirements in some cases. • Sections B, C: Failure to perform analytical Stormwater monitoring may result in the Division requiring that the permittee begin a monthly sampling scheme. • Sections B, C: A lower TSS benchmark of 50 mg/I for HOW, ORW, PNA and Tr Waters applies to these more sensitive waters. • Sections B, C. The monitoring parameter Oil & Grease (O&G) has been replaced by the parameter Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) for vehicle maintenance areas, and in some cases, other analytical monitoring requirements. • Sections B, C, D: Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be recorded in the SPPP, or in separate on -site records if your General Permit does not require an SPPP. Adverse weather is defined in the "Definitions" section of the permit. • Sections B, C. The term "Representative Storm Event" has been replaced by "Measurable Storm Event." A measurable storm event is defined in the permit. • Section D: If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative monitoring, DWQ may require the permittee to perform corrective action. Please review Parts III and IV to understand the Standard Conditions of your new NPDES General Permit, including Compliance and Liability, Reporting, Monitoring and Records requirements; Operation and Maintenance obligations; and Definitions. Please note that all samples analyzed in accordance with the terms of this permit must be submitted to the Division on Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) forms available on the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website above. DMR forms must be delivered to the Division no later than 30 days from the date the facility receives the sampling results from the laboratory. Also note that existing permittees do not need to submit a renewal re 4uest prior to expiration unless directed by the Division. Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR, nor does it relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree.

A tour was conducted of the exterior of the facility, observing the stormwater conveyances, outfalls and site conditions. During the visit, the SPPP manual was reviewed, operational activities and existing stormwater exposures were discussed. The current status of the Tier 2 response sampling was discussed; including, the evidence that the rainwater falling upon the property is less than 6.0 pH. At the time of the inspection the site was found to be in compliance with the permit. The inspector noted that SPPP and records were in good order. However, certain housekeeping and grounds maintenance practices needed improvement: - oily materials at the tractor trailer unloading ramp - compressor blowdown needed to be contained and disposed to a sanitary sewer - upkeep around the lift truck gas station - slope stabilization in several areas along the southside gates Watts has satisfactorily pursued the required Tier 2 responses. Upon review and consideration of the outfall analytical data, it is recommended that the current, monthly Tier 2 analytical sampling be reduced to only lead at outfalls 1 and 2_ However, if future benchmark exceedances occur requiring increased monitoring, standard Tier 2 sampling should be followed. Also, data indicate that ambient rainfall pH measures below 6.0. Therefore, current benchmark exceedances of pH do not seem reflective of facility stormwater quality. Rainfall pH data should be collected concurrent with all sampling events to document ambient conditions. According to a review of outfalls, discharge areas and site conditions, it appears Representative Outfall Status could be pursued.

They say that you advised the permittee to only sample for the parameter that was exceeded'in Tier 2 sampling. That's not correct. The NCG03 permit (see p. 7 in Part II), in the Tier 2 box says that the permittee must monitor *all* parameters as part of monthly sampling (even if only one triggered the tier). Can you contact the permittee and advise them appropriately? The reason we have them do this is so that we don't get a partial data set for some samples. This is particularly critical for metals data, which can fluctuate in toxicity depending on pH. Sampling for the whole suite also ensures that other clues and important data don't get left out of the `big picture' while the permittee is trying to find a problem -or correct/improve BMPs. If you have any questions, just let me know. Thanks, Bg Bethany Georgoulias Environmental Engineer NCDENR i DWQ I Stormwater Permitting Unit 1617.Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 512 N.

Please find attached the original and one copy of the required monthly Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) for outfalls 002 and 003. This DMR is being submitted by URS Corporation on behalf of Watts Regulator. Please note that the average pH for all samples previously reported on the May 2008 and October 2008 Discharge Monitoring Reports has been 5.97 which is below the lower benchmark limit of the permit. The facility has performed the required Tier 1 and Tier I1 response investigations without having identified any industrial storm water exposure to account for the low pH of the storm water at the facility outfalls. As indicated in the cover letter that accompanied the December 2008 sampling; Watts Regulator does continue to monitor the pH of"neat" samples of storm water at the facility in order to determine if an acid rain condition exists in the area. "Teat" samples are collected in clean plastic vessels that have been rinsed with distilled water prior to being placed at the collection site on top of the building. Several "neat" storm water samples have been evaluated since this practice began with the following results. .:Date';-,.. __ " Time of Da� ; ;Storm Water' f" . 12/10/2008 Morning 5.76 12/10/2008 Evening 5.81 12/11/2008 Morning 595 - .12/15/2008 morning 4.74 01/29/2009 Morning 5.50 Watts Regulator - Spindale, NC pH Sampling Data Il: • • �� •11 • 1 •1 1 11 : • 11 ��� • 1 • • 1 • - -girt: NONXNIM,NIIM MOM1 UNIN\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\`R�\\%ONMI\\\\\\\\\\N1%,1% NN l I l i ,NMIR"\\`\\♦ . a l ©\`INN1%\1%ONS,"�"`\"`\"�`41&XIM\\\\"\`\ `WNSO\.""♦ 11 `,"\\`=k,NIN . �' ' `\�`,k,ON MSN&IONNIM`\\N"OWNR\\IMMON" •• .� !1' \"\"\\\`\"` • • • • \"\"\`\\""\`1%,M`\\`♦;\\\"\1"O"��\`�`\\"\O\N ME •RR MI• 'wMaI 1 `♦ • r • • \"\"MORMI WN,MOOMMI\\\N-IMM,\`N%X'M`\ \\\\`\\"\\"` NCDFNR, Ccmmunication History DMR Submittal Cover Letter Dated 12-18-2008.

I did not make an appointment and set up an internal inspection. It does appear that the facility no longer does production as there are shipping trucks pulling in and out to loading docks. The one question I would ask of the facility contact is what the containers are for outside (see attached photo). There are fluids in these containers and they are in secondary containment. However, the secondary containment does not appear to get pumped out and there is standing water several inches deep that is thick with slime and I'm not sure what else.
