site, the outfalls and any possible exposures to downstream stormwater. Your assistance with the
inspection was greatly appreciated.

This plant has several outfalls. Each outfall was observed during the inspection. The site is
surrounded by streets and other industry and therefore each outfall is subject to contamination by
others. Only qualitative monitoring is required. Monitoring appears to be conducted as required.
The facility was found to be compliant with requirements of its industrial stormwater permit. If
you have questions or need additional information, please contact Glen White at [phone].
