Subject: No Exposure Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Granting Certification No. NCGNE0785
Counter Culture Coffee
Durham County
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES
Stormwater Permitting form and made a site visit on June 17, 2011 to assess the potential for stormwater
pollution. The tour of the facility provided by Brian Ludviksen was appreciated. Two small items were
noted for correction. Several old weathered pallets serving no purpose should be removed from around the
building. Two plastic open -top drums used to collect compostable coffee debris are located outdoors. They
both had lids and bungs in place, but are potential sources of stormwater pollution if left open by workers.
Mr. Ludviksen felt sure they can be maintained inside the building. Based on the expectation that these
changes will be made immediately, along with your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the
above referenced facility, the Division is granting your conditional exclusion from permitting as provided for
under 40 CFR 126.22(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations.
Within 20 days of receiving this letter, write a letter of response to this office (address in footer) to certify that
the drums have been moved inside and the pallets have been taken from the site.
Your facility will be considered to be protective of stormwater quality. By our acceptance of your no -
exposure certification, you are obligated to maintain no exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions
change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no exposure exclusion, you are obligated to
immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge
becomes subject to enforcement as an unpermitted discharge subject to civil penalties of up to $25,000
per day. Your conditional no exposure exclusion extends into the future without a need for renewal.
However, the Division can make unannounced random inspections to verify conditions, and will rescind
this certification if conditions warrant.

about 5 weathered pallets that were on their way to disposal already, and 2) storing inside the production building two 55
gallon plastic drums into which compostable coffee debris is placed. The open -top drums had lever -pack rings on the
lids, and closed bungs. They could potentially be left open by workers, resulting in a threat to stormwater quality. The
company agreed to move them indoors permanently.

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for exclusion from a Stormwater Permit based
on NO EXPOSURE:
Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notification that your facility does not require a
permit for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity in the State of North Carolina because
it qualifies for a no exposure exclusion. A condition of no exposure at an industrial facility means all
industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter (with some exceptions) to
prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowme/t, and/or runoff.
For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DWQ 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
storm water 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 comply with the
terms and conditions of 40 CFR 122.26(g).
For questions, please contact the DWO Regional Office for your area. (See page 6)

The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater
Permitting form and made a site visit on 11/2/2010 to assess the potential for stormwater pollution. Based on our
observations and your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, the Division is
granting your conditional exclusion from permitting as provided for under 40 CFR 126.22(g), which is incorporated by
reference in North Carolina regulations.
Please note that by our acceptance of your no -exposure certification, you are obligated to maintain no -exposure
conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no -exposure
exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater discharge.
Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an unpermitted discharge [subject to civil penalties of
up to $25,000 per day). Your conditional no -exposure exclusion does not expire. However, you must self re -certify
annually using the enclosed form, or if self -evaluation falls short, obtain NPDES permit coverage for any
stormwater discharges from your facility. Please store the completed re -certification forms to have them available
during future inspections by DWQ.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental
permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Myrl Nisely at [phone] or at
[e-mail].
