National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application f ''! r %on fr� a water Permit based
on NO EXPOSURE: V
Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notificati 4,&. t your facility does not require a
permit for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity i�he State of North Carolina because
it qualifies for a no exposure exclusion. A condition of no exposure at % industrial facility means all
industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter (with some exceptions) to
prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowmelt, and/or runoff.
For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DEMLR must approve your application for No
Exposure Certification before this exclusion is effective. Until you are issued a No
Exposure Certification and your NPDES permit is rescinded, your facility must continue
to abide by the terms and conditions of the current permit.
Industrial materials or activities include, but are not limited to: material handling equipment or activities,
industrial machinery, raw materials, intermediate products, by-products, final products, or waste products.
Material handling activities include the storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of
any raw material, intermediate product, final product or waste product. A storm resistant shelter is not
required for the following industrial materials and activities: drums, barrels, tanks, and similar containers
that are tightly sealed, provided those containers are not deteriorated and do not leak. "Sealed" means
banded or otherwise secured and with locked or non -operational taps or valves; adequately maintained
vehicles used in material handling; and final products, other than products that would be mobilized in
stormwater discharges (e.g_, rock salt).
A No Exposure Certification must be provided for each facility qualifying for the no exposure exclusion. In
addition, the exclusion from NPDES permitting is available on a facility -wide basis only —not for individual
outfalls. if any industrial activities or materials are, or will be, exposed to precipitation, the facility is not
eligible for the no exposure exclusion. By signing and submitting this No Exposure Certification form, you
certify that a condition of no exposure exists at this facility or site and are obligated to complfi
terms and conditions of 40 CFR 122.26(g).
If approved, your conditional No Exposure Exclusion has no expiration ate C47
BUT MUST BE self re -certified at least annually./ N�ti ?oil
Please look for information about re -certification under the No Exposure section on this����,;
For questions, please contact the DEMLR Regional Office for your area. (See page 6)

issuing authority.
2. Reporting
a. The Permittee shall monitor batch discharges quarterly in the months of January, April, July, and
October each year for the parameters listed in Part I, B. above per Chapter 23 of the Charlotte
City Code. Monitoring information documented on the CLTWater-SP developed forms along with
a completed Periodic Self -Monitoring Report ("PSMR") Certification form shall be delivered to the
Control Authority no later than the twentieth day of the month following the month in which the
samples were taken. If no discharge occurs during the reporting period, "no discharge" shall be
reported. Copies of these and all other reports required herein shall be delivered to the Control

Control Authority within 24 hours of becoming aware of the violation(s). The Permittee shall also
repeat the sampling (four consecutive discharge days) and analysis for the parameter(s) in
violation and deliver the required monitoring information, documented on the CLTWater-SP
developed forms, along with a completed PSMR Certification form to the Control Authority within
thirty (30) days of becoming aware of the violation(s). A TTO violation shall require repeat
sampling for only one (1) discharge day. All other parameter violations shall require repeat
sampling for four (4) consecutive discharge days.
3. Definitions
In addition to the definitions in the City Code, the following definitions and requirements apply:
a. A "comp." sample for monitoring requirements shall be defined as:
A 24 hour flow proportional composite sample, which consists of a series of aliquots of equal
volume collected from a representative point in the discharge stream, over a 24 hour period with
the time intervals between aliquots determined by a preset number of gallons passing through
Pipe 001. Flow measurement between aliquot intervals shall be determined by the "Approved
primary measuring device and wastewater flow meter", and the preset gallon interval between
aliquot collections fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow through Pipe 001.

description of discharge practices, including non -routine batch discharges; description of stored chemicals;
procedures for immediately notifying the POTW of slug discharges that would cause a violation of 40 CFR
403.5(b), with procedures for notification within 5 days; and if necessary, procedures to prevent adverse
impact from accidental spills, including inspection and maintenance of storage areas, handling and transfer of
materials, loading and unloading operations, control of plant site run-off, worker training, building of

left on the Control Authority's phone by calling [phone]. A written follow-up report describing the cause
of the discharge and measures taken to prevent similar future occurrences shall be filed with the Control
Authority by the Permittee within five (5) days of the discharge. Such written notification shall not relieve the
Permittee from any liability, which may be incurred as a result of the discharge.

PART IV —PAGE 1
Permit # 3027
PERMIT MODIFICATION HISTORY
December 1, 2017 — This is a permit modification at the request of the Permittee. This permit is being modified
based on the need to change from a "continuous" discharger to a `batch" discharger with the requirement to
monitor 4 separate batches in the months of January, April, July & October. The Schedule of Compliance has
been removed from the modified permit and the pages within Part I, have been corrected to reflect this change.
The Expiration date of this permit has been extended to October 31, 2018; this has been updated on the cover
page and on the limits page. The extension to October 31, 2018 is still well within the 5 year range from the
original permit issuance date, but will allow for a full years' worth of data before reassessing the permit limits. The
monitoring frequency conducted by the city has been changed from 4 consecutive discharge days to 3
consecutive discharge days due to the IU's typical discharge schedule of Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The
map has been updated to reflect the location of pretreatment and Pipe 001. Part I, d, 2, a. was updated to reflect
the change from continuous to batch based on decreased water usage. The definition of "batch" was added to
Part I, 3, e.; the remaining numbered definitions were corrected to reflect this addition. The designation of 3**/3
months has been added to Part I, 3, c. The date of the most recent Annual Inspection was added to Part III, B. A
footnote was added to Special Condition F. due to the Reporting Limit for certain parameters often being higher
than the EPA proposed limit.
June 1, 2016 - This is a new permit. Permit limits are based on the single limit, monthly average categorical
standards for required parameters, and data provided by the Permittee and the current allocation at McAlpine
Creek WWTP. Limited parameters shall be met upon completion of part I. C. 1. j. of the schedule of compliance.
