Gregson North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Water Quality, Wilmington Regional Office 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 Subject: RESPONSE TO NPDES COMPLIANCE INSPECTION REPORT FOSS RECYCLING, INC. 199 DRUMMER KELLUM ROAD JACKSONVILLE, ONSLOW COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA CERTIFICATE OF COVERAGE NCG100119 MID -ATLANTIC PROJECT NO. 000R2066.00 Dear Mr. Gregson: Foss Recycling, Inc. (Foss) appreciates the opportunity to respond to your NPDES Compliance Inspection Report, dated July 30, 2013. The report was based on observations noted during an NPDES compliance inspection conducted at the above -referenced facility on July 17, 2013. As indicated in the report, the facility was found to be in minimal compliance with the permit requirements. The issues or findings noted during the compliance inspection are listed below in italics, with the responses and/or actions taken provided directly beneath them. Item 9: The location and numbers of the outfalls need to be addressed and corrected, if necessary, on the site plan. Both outfalls need to be sampled for the analytical and qualitative monitoring requirements from this time forward. Stormwater at the site either infiltrates into the sandy site soils, leaves the site as sheet flow or enters the on -site network of drainage ditches. The ditches are interconnected and ultimately discharge off -site at Outfall No. 1, located on the southeast portion of the site. During heavy rain events, stormwater entering the ditches may also overflow and leave the site as sheetflow on the northern portion of the site. Outfall No. 1 is located at the intersection of two drainage ditches, which run along the southern and eastern perimeters of the site. An updated site map showing the direction of flow associated with the on -site ditch network, as well as the location of Outfall No. 1, is provided as an attachment. In addition, a path/walkway will also be cleared along the southeast portion of the site in order to provide better access for outfall monitoring. Qualitative and quantitative monitoring will continue to be conducted on a semi-annual basis at Outfall No. 1. Prior to the July 17, 2013 site inspection, the facility also included a potential stormwater discharge outfall location along the western property boundary of the site (identified on the previous site map as Potential Outfall No. 2). During the site inspection, the portion of the drainage ditch associated with this potential outfali had recently been cleared and over - excavated. Given the overall topographic gradient and general direction of stormwater flow within the ditch, the over -excavation activities ultimately resulted in the formation of a point - source discharge on this portion of the site. In order to eliminate the presence of a second point -source discharge, the portion of the ditch associated with Potential Outfall No. 2 was then backfilled. Stormwater runoff from this area will now be directed into the remaining on - site ditch network, which flows east/west across the site prior to either discharging off -site at Outfall No. 1 or leaving the site as sheetflow on the northern portion of the site. Item 2: Good housekeeping practices need to be increased in dealing with (a) daily inspections of fuel and transmission spills on -site and their immediate clean up (b) daily cleaning of the fuel spills around the fluid drainage area to prevent the fuel from leaving the concrete pad; (c) cleaning up of the debris in the ditches on -site to allow the water to now to the outlets; and (d) areas around the lot need to be bermed to prevent illicit stormwater discharges. Better housekeeping practices will be implemented at the site and incorporated into the day-to-day operations to ensure that spills/releases are cleaned up upon initial discovery. Particular emphasis will be applied to the covered drain racks, bulk fluid aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) and surrounding concrete pad along the western exterior of the scrap metal storage building. Following the July 17, 2013 site inspection, Foss personnel took measures to clean out and remove debris from the on -site ditch network, as discussed with you during the site inspection. In the future, routine measures will be implemented at the site to ensure the ditches remain unimpeded and continue to flow as designed. In addition, Foss personnel also constructed earthen berms along the northern portion of the property (where stormwater runoff would leave the site as sheet flow) to prevent illicit discharges and eliminate the potential for a point -source discharge on this portion of the site. However, the areas along the southern and eastern portions of the site discharge directly into one of two adjacent drainage ditches, which run along the southern and eastern perimeters of the site prior to merging and discharging off -site at Outfall No, 1. Foss appreciates this opportunity to respond to the NPDES Compliance Inspection Report. The inspection has helped to clarify the necessary procedures required to remain in full compliance with NPDES General Permit NCG100000. It is hoped that these actions and responses will be to your satisfaction.

The following issues need to be addressed: 1) The ditches on -site have alot of debris in them and should be cleaned out to keep the water moving off the site. 2) A couple of areas around the perimeter of the lot need to be bermed to prevent illicit drainage areas. 3) The facility needs to be more diligent about checking for hydrocarbon spills in the yard daily and cleaning them up ASAP (within 24 hrs)and disposing of the material properly. 4) The confusion of the outfall numbering needs to be addressed. Please send pictures of where you have determined where outfall #1 is (since the location on the site map and the physical location itself did not look to be an outfall) or if you change the location. Please address which outfall has been previously sampled and how you want to address this in the future. Be sure to update the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan with this information. 5) Whatever the•facility can do to maintain a vegetated buffer around the perimeter of the lot would benefit the facility itself.

Has the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan been implemented? Comment. The site has tanks that the car fluids are drained into the bottom of the rack where the cars are placed has a secondary catch basin that fluids are captured that do not make it it to the tanks. This catch basin is then drained and the fluids are drained into tanks. The DWQ observed some areas where fluids had drained across the concrete pad where the draining station is located and suggests that additional inspections and general good housekeeping maintanence be stepped up for this area. Although the station is located under a roof, it could cause potential problems if not consistently cleaned and maintained.

Comment: The facility has collect sample from Outfall #1 consistently. It is not clear if outfall #2 does not discharge, or if samples had not been collected four it or if the sample was mis numbered. The site plan shows two outfalls and the site inspection would lead one to think that outfall #2 would discharge before outfall #1. The answer to this will be determined by Mr. Eubanks and he will respond to this issue. Permit and Outfalls # Is a copy of the Permit and the Certificate of Coverage available at the site? # Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? # If the facility has representative outfall status, is it properly documented by the Division? # Has the facility evaluated all illicit (non stormwater) discharges? Comment: The facility has recently changed management of the environmental portion of the facility. Mr. Eubanks was shown what to look for in the site inspections in determining the areas of illicit stormwater discharge. He has agreed to fix (berm up) the areas where the discharges are occurring. ■ 0 0 0 - Yes No NA NE ■ D 0 0 ■ 0 0 0 0 0 N 0 0 0 0 D Page: 4 ! 34.7978N 77.3775 W - Google Maps Page 1 of 1 Google J� S-C)L- oil Nelt-J.-I To see all the details that are visible on the screen. use the "Pnnt" link next to the map. /,eeey, Map date = 3 4oVe - J https:llmaps.google.com/maps?q=34.7978N+77.3775 W&spn=0.755462,1.296799&t—h&hl... 7/8/2013 Contact Persor Directions to Fac r ` Compliance Inspection Report Permit: NCG100119 SOC: County: Onslow Region: Wilmington' -D, 1'r-d 11�b"k6 JWaa ie-.Ea§s System Classifications: U Effective: 11/01/12 Expiration: 10/31/17 Owner: Foss Recycling Inc Effective: Expiration: Facility: Fa5l� Salvage - Noriheast Jacksonville 1.99 Drummer Kellum Rd SFr l vt f."

Overall site is in fairly good shape, but some issues do exist. Facility is considered to be marginally compliant since plan is in place and at least some sampling & inspections are occurring, but missing any sampling events from Outfall #2 is an issue unless "representative outfall status" is granted by DWQ to Outfall #1, if deemed appropriate to do so. Site could really use stabilization of most drainage ditches with establishment of vegetative buffers or filter strips along them that are maintained and protected from on -site activities plus include periodic trash or debris removal. On -site staff or manager should be trained and put in charge of sampling to make it easier for facility/company to obtain representative sample(s) from applicable outfalls and within sampling constraints or windows; sample kits are kept at the site. Site contains a 1000-gal AST for old fuel, 250-gal AST for used oil, 500-g6l AST for old antifreeze, and one 1000 & 1500-gal AST for diesel fuel. Site utilizes a mobile car crusher (tractor trailer mounted) that visits site as needed_ Page: 2 Permit: NCG100119 Owner • Facility: Foss Recycling Inc Inspection Date: 03/15/2011 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit.

Sample results for last half of 2010 are not present. Attempts have to be made to perform sampling for all outfalls and may not be capable to sample all outfalls for the same rainfall event if a discharge is not produced at all locations. Company staff from headquarters in LaGrange (1,5 hours away) has been doing the sampling and it seems improbable that they can catch discharge within the first 30 minutes, Records reviewed show the sample collection events have usually occurred in the last month of the sampling window and the company/facility runs the risk of not being able to obtain a sample for all required outfalls within the remaining time. The above observations pose concern about sampling events & data. collected, thus recommend that on -site manager/staff are trained to perform sampling.

This permit expires on August 31, 2002. The Division staff is currently in the process of rewriting this permit and is scheduled to have the permit reissued by late summer of 2002. Once the permit is reissued, your facility would be eligible for continued coverage under the reissued permit. In order to assure your continued coverage under the general permit, you must apply to the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit coverage. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in advance that your permit will be expiring. Enclosed you will find a General Permit Coverage Renewal Application Form. The application must be completed and returned by March 4, 2002 in order to assure continued coverage under the general permit. Failure to request renewal within this time period may result in a civil assessment of at least $250.00. Larger penalties may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility without coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $10,000 per day. Please note that recent federal legislation has extended the "no exposure exclusion" to all operators of industrial facilities in any of the 11 categories of "storm water discharges associated with industrial activity," (except construction activities). if you feel your facility can certify a condition of "no exposure", i.e. the facilty industrial materials and operations are not exposed to stormwater, you can apply for the no exposure exclusion.
