Comment: A copy of the General Permit and the Certificate of Coverage was not available at the site. A
copy of the General Permit was printed from DEQ website with the help of the inspectors. Five
sformwater discharge outfalls (SDOs) were identified dudnq the inspection. Wastewater
generated'ftom daily boiler blowdown is discharged to the ground outside the boiler room and
eventually enters an unnamed tributary to Loves Creek via one of the SDOs. Discharge of boiler
blowdown water is not covered under General Permit NCG210000. The facility needs to apply for
a Certificate of Coverage under NPDES Wastewater General Permit NCG500000.

INSPECTION SUMMARY: Ong, I (Gary Perlmutter, DAQ-RRO) along with Thad Valentine (DLR-RRO)
and Cheng Zhang (DWR-RRO) visited Carolina Wood Enterprises for a multimedia inspection. This report addresses the air
permit component of the inspection:..
We met with Mr. Clay Van Culberson, President and Facility Contact, and Mr. David Purvis, Kiln / Boiler Operator. We
reviewed the permit stipulations and required records, most of which were in order. Copies of boiler initial notification and
notification of compliance status could not be found. I told Mr. Van Culberson that I would check DAQ files for submitted
copies, as.they had responded to an NOD.addressing this issue and other Boiler_GACT_(6_J) requirements.
We then toured the facility to see it in full operation. The boiler was running at 100% capacity with 10-15% visible emissions
(VE) observed from its stack The kiln was currently drying a load of green wood with much steam escaping from the walls
and roof. No VE was observed from any of the cyclones:
Back at RRO, I checked the facility's response to the NOD addressing the Boiler GACT, and found no notifications in the
packet. I then sent Mr. Van Culberson an e-mail containing an Initial Notification form to complete and guidance for
submitting', , a;- Notification of Compliance Status from the USEPA website:
iritp:iiwww3:epa:gowaugaautyicun.ousuun,'comphaacaJinde;.:,`.tm1-
Overall the facility appeared to be well run and maintained from an air quality perspective, despite the notification
deficiencies found. Further details follow.

discovered during an inspection on April 16, 2014. The facility responded by submitting a copy of their boiler tune-up
record and energy assessment report
b. Boiler Tune-up Requirements the initial boiler tune-up was conducted on March 25, 2014, in response to the March
21 NOD. The boiler runs consistently, so it is subject to biennial tune-ups. I told Mr. Van Calberson and Mr. Purvis
that the next inspection is coming due this March, and Mr. Purvis told me that he will schedule a tune-up after our
inspection. The Energy Assessment was conducted on May 19, 2014.
c. Notification and Reporting Requirements — DAQ never received the Initial Notification or Notification of Compliance

Act, then the Permittee is required to register this plan with the USEPA in accordance with 40 CFR Part 68.
Not applicable;- Carolina Wood Enterprises is not subject to 112(r)..;..
I
(VII) INSIGNICANT / EXEMPT SOURCES: The facility does not have any listed insignificant sources in its permit. However,
one 8,000-gall6n diesel fuel talk was observed outside the office building. This should be added in the next permit revision.
(VIII) EMISSION INVENTORY Per the header on the first page of this report, emissions of all listed pollutants were higher in
2012 than in 2008. However, the DAQ internal comments in I-Beam's Emissions Data (ED) module note that comparing data
of the two inventory data is not feasible due to differences in calculating emissions, performed by different consultants who
used different control device efficiencies and different emission rates. For example, in 2008 the manufacturer source test data
was used and found to be incorrectly calculated, whereas in 2012 the default DAQ data was used.
(IX) SOURCE TEST REVIEW: Carolina Wood Enterprises has no history of source testing, and its current permit lacks a
source test requirement.
•1900091 Inspection Report Page 15
(X) COMPLIANCE HISTORY: A review of DAQ files revealed the following compliance actions triggered by the -facility:
• April 15, 2015 — a Notice of Deficiency (NOD) was issued for failure to submit the annual report by the due date;
March 28, 2014 — an NOD was issued for failure to comply with the Boiler GACT rule by the compliance due date;
• January 10, 2014 — an NOD was issued for failure to submit a permit renewal apphcation and emissions inventory
the due date by .
• March 27, 2009 — a Notice of Violation /Notice of Recommendation for Enforcement (NOV/NRE) was issued for
repeated failures to submit annual reports. A total of $1188.00 was assessed against the facility.
• March 22,'2007 - an NOWNRE was issued regarding the delinquent annual report for the, calendar year 2006. A
civil penalty of $500.00 plus $188.00 investigative costs was.assessed and paid in full.
• March 3, 2005 — an NOV was issued regarding the delinquent annual report for the calendar year'2004.
• June 7, 2004 — an NOV was issued regarding New Source Performance Standards (Subpart Dc) reporting
<requirements.
(XI) CONCLUSIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS: The facility appeared to be in compliance with its air permit. An issue was
found in the facility's lack of procuring copies of initial notification and notification of compliance status per the Boiler
GACT (0) rule; but this was addressed by my e-mailing the facility forms and guidance for their completion. DAQ should
anticipate receipt of GACT notifications within two weeks; if not, the facility should be contacted to inquire about these
notifications.,The diesel fuel tank observed should be added to the InsignificantlExempt list. Finally, the facility should be
___ - next inspected for air -permit compliance alone in about a year. -- -- —

Subject: Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Certificate of Coverage NumbeFMCG27:0.1- --9
Wrenn Brothers Inc - Wrenn Brothers Incorporated
Chatham County
On 9/27/2011, the Division of Water Quality received your request to rescind your coverage under
Certificate of Coverage Number NCG210179. In accordance with your request, Certificate of Coverage
Number NCG210179 is rescinded effective immediately.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of stormwater to
waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit will subject the responsible party to a
civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day. It is the intention of DWQ that enforcement proceedings will
occur for persons that have voluntarily relinquished permit coverage when, in fact, continuing permit
coverage was necessary. If, in retrospect, you feel the site still requires permit coverage, you should
notify this office immediately. Furthermore, if in the future you wish to again discharge to the State's
surface waters, you must first apply for and receive a new NPDES permit.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you would inform
the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit coverage.
If you have questions about this matter, please contact Brian Lowther at (919) 807-6368, or the Water
Quality staff in our Raleigh Regional Office at NPDES SW.

Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Wrenn Brothers, Incorporated
NPDES General Permit No. NCG210179
Chatham County
Dear Mr. Wrenn:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director
Division of Water Quality
On April 22, 2005 Mr. Shannon Langley and Mr. Christopher Wu of the Raleigh Regional Office
conducted a compliance evaluation inspection of Wrenn Brothers, Inc. with specific regards to
its stormwater permit. Mr. Neil Wrenn, president of the facility represented Wrenn Brothers,
Inc. during the compliance inspection.
The following observations were made:
1. There was neither a copy of the NPDES Stormwater permit map of the facility, nor were
the required Spill Prevention Counter Control Plan (SPCC) and Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SPPP) available for review.
2. Wrenn Brothers failed to complete the qualitative monitoring of its stormwater runoff as
required by its permit. Currently, Wrenn Brothers is unsure if it uses more than 50
gallons of new motor oil per month. If greater, the facility will also be required to
complete analytical analysis of its runoff. Neil Wrenn stated that he would look into the
company's monthly oil consumption.
3. While there is secondary containment for the 10,000 gallon diesel tank, there is no SPCC
plan. This spill plan is a necessity for diesel tanks of such magnitude and is required by
Federal Law 40 CFR part 112.
4. There are numerous hydraulic oil puddles throughout the facility resulting from
incidental spills and leaks. The contaminated sediment needs to be collected and
properly disposed.
5. .There was evidence of flowing water on -site that Neil Wrenn believes derives from a
potential water line leak. The runoff is, at times, chlorinated and, therefore, unlikely to
have originated from the facility. This water was observed flowing through the property

respects to correcting this problem.
6. There was flowing water originating from beneath a tank of Biocide PQ80, a chemical
used to treat lumber. While there was no evidence of the chemical's presence in the
water, the origin of the water should be identified. Neil Wrenn believes the water stems
from the potential water line break.
A large area of bark and mulch was noted on the South side of the property directly
adjacent to Loves Creek. Water flow from this area has been channelized to a point
where it enters Loves Creek near the front of the property. A coating of bark dust was
noted in Loves Creek just below the facility. In addition, Dissolved Oxygen (DO) levels
decreased just downstream of the site. The locations of the bark piles must be addressed
as part of the SPPP developed for this facility.
Within 30 days of your receipt of this letter, please provide the following:
1. A copy of an updated SPPP plan detailing how you propose to limit continued impacts
from your site to Loves Creek.
2. A copy of the SPCC plan.
3. Verification that the hydraulic oil was cleaned up.

On March 17, 2010, Vicki Webb of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a stormwater CEI of Wrenn
Brothers with the assistance of Mr. Neil Wrenn, Mr. David Wrenn, and Van Culberson. Your help was
appreciated, as it eased the inspection process.
The following observations were made:
1. The Wrenn Brothers Incorporated is located at 902 South Chatham Ave., Siler City, NC. The
facility discharges into the receiving waters designated as Loves Creek, a class C stream, in the
Cape Fear River Basin. Loves Creek is on the 303(d) impaired list for aquatic life
(ecological/biological integrity benthos).
2. Wrenn Brothers is shut down and is no longer in operation (since December 1, 2009). This
facility has an active permit and is required to follow all the requirements therein. The general
permit for this facility is NCG210000 and can be found at:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/c/document librarv/get file?uuid=089a3724-lb02-4c65-a989-
a224ef062b50&groupld=38364. Currently this facility is for sale. If this facility is sold, then a
change of ownership form is needed and can be found at:

0l 99235 fea69&group Id=38364
3. The facility has the necessary components of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3).
The facility is lacking in the implementation of the SP3. The facility could not produce employee
training records. This is a violation of General Permit NCG210000 and these requirements can
be found in Part 11 Section A of the permit.

4. Files on record showed the last time analytical or qualitative monitoring was preformed was in
2005. This is a violation of General Permit NCG210000 Part II Section B and C of the permit.
Silt fencing had been put up at Outfall #2 to prevent bark and other materials from entering into
Loves Creek. During the inspection it was noted that the silt fencing has not been maintained and
is lying on the ground in some areas. During a heavy rainfall the fencing will not prevent dirt,
mulch or bark from entering into the creek.
6. It was observed at Outfall 91 that bark debris was lining the railroad track all the way to Loves
Creek. Measures must be taken to keep this debris from entering Loves Creek.
7. There is a large pile of soil, chips, bark mixture, & some bricks that borders Loves Creek from
Outfall 41 to Outfall 92. Measures must be taken immediately to prevent further debris entering
the Creek. Part II Section B states the follow:
SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1. A facility that
does not retain exposed (either exposed to incident precipitation or exposed to stormwater run on) piles of
sawdust, wood chips, bark, mulch, or other similar material on site for more than seven (7) days before
removing the material is not required to monitor the parameters in Table 1. A facility that is exempt from
analytical monitoring on this basis of removing material in seven (7) days or less shall keep in its SPPP a
record of dates when the material is generated and removed, and how/by whom it was removed. If at any
time the material is not removed within this time frame, the facility must begin analytical monitoring
immediately.
Accordingly, analytical monitoring for outfalls #1 and 92 is to be conducted during the next rain
event (unless it has already been conducted since the date of the inspection).
It was observed during the inspection around the oil fueling shed that there was motor oil -
hydraulic oil staining the ground in three different locations. Immediately clean and remove all
of the areas where there is motor oil -hydraulic oil staining on the ground. Provide receipts where
the contaminated soil was properly disposed. This was discussed daring the inspection with Mr.
D. Wrenn.
Wrenn Brothers is reminded that violations of the permit and NC General Statute 143-215.6A
are subject to a civil penalty assessment not to exceed $25,000 per day, per violation.
Please respond to items 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 in writing to this office within 30 days of receipt of this letter.
The overall condition of Wrenn Brothers stormwater program is not compliant with Division standards.

Wrenn Brothers, Incorporated
NPDES General Permit No. NCG210179
Chatham County
Dear Mr. Wrenn:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director
Division of Water Quality
On December 7, 2005 Mr. Christopher Wu of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a reconnaissance
inspection of Wrenn Brothers, Inc. in response to a submitted stormwater pollution prevention plan
(SPPP). Mr. Neil Wrenn, president of the facility represented Wrenn Brothers, Inc. during the inspection.
A maintained stormwater program is essential for protecting the integrity of surface waters. Wrenn
Brothers, Inc., a lumber manufacturing plant, has the potential to contaminate the unnamed tributary (UT)
to Loves Creek. The facility processes lumber and stores dirt, mulch, and bark in large piles adjacent to
the UT. These piles are full of organic material which have the potential to fill the UT as well as consume
the dissolved oxygen levels in the water. Such degradation to the health of a stream can have adverse
effects on aquatic life.
The submitted SPPP included most of the necessary facets required under permit NCG210179 including:
detailed site maps with clearly labeled storm drains and a spill prevention counter control plan. Because
the facility does not use an average of 55 gallons of motor oil per month, it is only required to
qualitatively monitor the creek twice per year. The plan, however, does not address the large piles of
bark, mulch, and dirt. In a June 3, 2005 response to a NOV, Mr. Wrenn stated that there was little
evidence that the piles impacted the creek and, therefore, was not required to address the piles in the
SPPP. On December 7, 2005 Mr. Wu observed floating bark in the creek, and the water was visibly
turbid. After discussing the observations and processes by which organic material consumes oxygen, Mr.
Wrenn agreed to temporarily place silt fences around the piles that lay adjacent to the creek. Mr. Wrenn
also agreed to seek the aid of engineers to design a more permanent method of sediment control. In
addition, Mr. Wrenn was asked to keep Division staff updated as to the status of such projects.
If you have any questions regarding any of our findings, please contact Christopher Wu at: (919) 791-
4200 (or email: chris.wu@ncmail.net).

Danny,
I just got a couple calls from the previous owner (Wrenn Brothers, Inc.) of this facility in Slier City. They received the
annual invoice, but said they sold the facility to Carolina Wood Enterprises back in April 2010. Mr. Wrenn thought that
the permit was transferred or rescinded, but I cannot find any record of it. Nor can I find that the new owners have their
own permit for it. Vicki Webb had done a site inspection/NOV back on 3/17/2010. Do you have any record of a transfer
or rescission request in your RRO files? If not, I'll call Mr. Wrenn back and tell him that he must send us a rescission
request. I guess someone from RRO will need to go visit the new owner to get them to submit for a permit also. The
facility is at 902 S. Chatham Ave, Siler City.
Thanks.

Spill Prevention Counter Control Plan \, �
At Wrenn Brothers Inc. there is a 10,000 gallon diesel fuel tank.;TF,ie tanX-1
meets all requirements for above ground storage of diesel fuel. ThereAs d
secondary tank around the main tank for containment of fuel in case the in f
tank should ever leak. The secondary tank will hold in excess of 10,000 galldns.
therefore making a spill on the ground highly unlikely. At the filling pipe of the �"/
tank there is a check valve and a gate valve. The purpose of the check valve is
for one way flow of fuel into the tank and no flow out that could result in a spill.
The gate valve is extra spill protection. Our fuel vendor puts about 8000 gallons
of fuel in the tank twice a year as it is emptied. By putting that amount in, the
tank can never be overfilled resulting in a spill. It is our vendor's duty to inspect
the tank, valves, vents, and piping at each filling and to notify us of any potential
problems.
If all of the above saftey measures should ever fail resulting in a spill of such
magnitude as to possibly migrate to Loves Creek, several things can be done to
stop the fuel from ever reaching the creek. A study has been made of how the
fuel would flow. Starting at the tank, fuel would spill into a drainage ditch that
flows to the ditch along the side of Hwy Bus. 421. The highway ditch drains into
Loves Creek. We have a lower entrance driveway off of the highway with a 24"
pipe in the ditch. The place to stop the fuel flow would be at this pipe. Using one
of our loaders, dirt would be put in front of the pipe stopping it up. This would
turn our entrance drive into a dam that would be high enough to contain all of the
fuel in the 10,000 gallon tank and effectively protect the creek.
Notifying proper authorities would be the next step taken. The local fire
department, town officals, and Division of Water Quality would be informed of
the spill imediately. How to handle the spill and dispose of it would be
corordinated with these officals.
In the event of a lesser spill that would not threaten the creek proper
notification will be given to Division of Water Quality as how to clean up the spill.

Subject: Corrective action plan for waste oil spill
Dear Sirs:
Wrenn Bros. has determined the cause of the waste oil spill on our site to be
as follows. Used motor oil collected from the servicing of our equipment is
supposed to be put in empty 55 gallon barrels for future disposal. First of all this
procedure was done carelessly by some employees who tried to put too much oil
in the barrels resulting in an over flow of oil on to the ground. Secondly oil was
spilled because a funnel was not used to get the oil into the small openings of
the barrels. It is our best estimate that approximately five to ten gallons of used
motor oil got spilled. This spill migrated less than thiry feet from the original
release site. The soil type at the spill site is red clay and therefore it prevented
the oil from penetrating into the soil more that four to six inches.
The following preventitive actions have been taken. Employees have been
retrained to be more careful with the procedure of filling empty barrels and to use
a funnel so as to not spill any oil on the ground. If any oil spills should happen
again, then an imediate notification to a superviser of the spill will be made.
Supervisers will start a clean up right away and notify your department with all
the details of the spill and methods being used for the clean up.
All of the oil contaminated soil has been removed from the spill site. The soil
has been placed on 8 mil plastic. The edges of the plastic have been pulled up
over the soil to prevent any rain water from washing the oil out of the soil and
causing futher contamination. It is our intention to land farm this soil. Included
with this letter is the paper work for land farm application along with two maps
showing the location of the land farm.
A soil sample has been taken from under the removed soil. It has been sent a
lab for testing to make sure all comtaminated soils have been removed. We used
an enviromental engineering firm to make sure our soil sample was properly
collected and transported the the testing lab. Results of the test will be sent to
your office as soon as they are available from the lab.

Dear Sirs:
On May 3, 2005 we received a letter from your office about a compliance inspection
made at our plant on April 22, 2005 concerning our stormwater permit. Listed in the letter
were several concerns and observations. The following actions have been taken and are
listed below.
1. There was no NPDES stormwater permit map nor SPCC and SPPP written plans
available for review. All three of these documents are enclosed with this letter.
2. We had not completed the qualitative monitoring of stormwater runoff and did not have
an answer to the amount of motor oil we were buying on an annual basis. We plan to start
qualitative monitoring of the stormwater runoff as soon as we have enough rain to create
runoff. In the year 2004 we purchased four 55 gallon drums of motor oil. This was 220
gallons.
3. We had no SPCC plan for our 10000 gallon tank of diesel fuel. A SPCC plan is
enclosed with this letter.
4. There were several oil leaks on the property. We had a visit from Mr. Jimmie Greer
about these leaks and have cleaned them up per his instructions. There are two letters
enclosed stating our actions in this matter.
5. There was evidence of flowing water from a water line leak. The leak has been fixed
and the flow of water has stopped.
6. There was flowing water from under the Biocide PQ80 tank The flow has stopped.
7. There was a bark pile on the property. Water flow from this pile enters Loves Creek.
Bark dust was observed on the water and DO levels decreased down stream. At this time
the bark pile is still there. Bark is continously being added to the pile and then being
removed as it is sold. This is a vital part of our operations and to move this pile would be
very expensive and time consuming. We have doubts as to any damage this bark pile is
doing to the creek for several good reasons. First we have never seen a coating of bark
dust on the water as your inspectors say they have. Second it is not very clear to us as to
what caused these decreased DO levels. We were told by your inspectors that Loves Creek
decreased DO levels were mainly due to the low flow rate of the water. Third no figures
were given to us showing the drop in DO levels just below the bark pile compared to those
figures above the pile. Why were these fgures never given to us? This brings us to the
question what should be done with the bark pile? It is going to take better evidence than we
have seen so far to make us even consider moving the bark pile. Your letter stated that the
bark pile should be adressed in our SPPP plan. Without clear evidence of damage to the
creek, the bark pile is not at present a part of our SPPP.
Sincerely,
;

following changes.
1. The silt fence on outfall #2 has been fixed.
2. A copy of the General Permit and Certificate of coverage are now on site.

are included with this letter.
In your letter to us dated July 10 2008, it states that Wrenn Brothers has an
'4ncomplete SPPP and goes on to
list all the items needed to make it correct. After carefully reviewing our SPPP, it
appears to us that the issues of BMP summary, Preventative maintenance and
good housekeeping plan, employee training, and responsible party list are all
stated in the SPPP. We are in total agreement that the issues of no site map, no
semi annual stormwater inspection program, and no documentation of
employees training are things that need correcting. On the issue of employee
training, we have conducted training but never documented it. A copy of our
SPPP, SPCCP, and site maps are included with this letter.

Wrenn brothers, Inc. is a lumber maufacturing plant that buyes standing
timber, brings the timber to it's plant and saws it into lumber. Then stacks, dries,
and planes the lumber. The lumber is then stored in sheds until it is sold and
hauled away by trucks. The manufacturing of lumber uses no chemicals. The
only potential pollutant sources are diesel fuel, motor oil and hydraulic oil.
Wrenn Brothers Inc. is a located at 902 South Second Ave. in Siler City, NC.
South Second Ave also known as business 421 forms the eastern boundary of
the properety. The Norfork Southern railroad is the western boundary. Loves
creek is the southern boundary and Chatham Novelties company is the northern
boundary. There are maps with this plan to show the site location of the
business.
There is no waste material left over in manufacturing lumber. Every part of the
log is used. All manufactured products are stored in sheds or truck trailers and
eventually sold. There is a small amount of non hazardous trash generated such
as steel strapping, plastic wrapping,ect. It is placed in a dumpster that is picked
up by a waste management company when the dumpster is full. Used motor oil
is generated from the on site servicing of the forklifts and loaders. It is collected
in 55 gallon barrels and picked up by a oil recycling company.
A site map is included with this document showing all buildings and the
manufacturing processes going on in them. All drainages ditches are shown. The
only impervious surfaces are in the buildings. All drainage of storm water goes to
either oufall #1 or outfall #2. There locations are shown on the map. Diesel
fuel,motor oil, and hydraulic oil are the potential pollutants. Because of where
these products are stored in relation to runoff water, outfall #2 could possibly be
affected if a major spill occured. The products are stored approximately 700 feet
from outfall #2 and marked on the site map.
In the past three years one spill of used motor oil has occured. Approximately 5
to 10 gallons was spilled and was cleaned up by Division of Water Quality's
instructions. A corrective action plan written to prevent future spills.
A certifcation statement will be signed with every inspection of the outfalls in
accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions,
Section B, Paragraph 5. This statement will certify there was an evauation done
for the presence of non stormwater discharges.
Measures have been taken to prevent our hazardous products from getting into
the storm water. The diesel fuel tank has a secondary containment tank with a
cover and a check valve at the filling pipe to prevent outflow from the tank. The
hydraulic tank and all oil barrels are sitting in a secondary tank to prevent
spillage. This secondary tank is under a shelter to keep rain water out. It is our
opinion that we are following best management practices with our hazardous
substances to keep them out of the storm water runoff.
A Spill Prevention and Response Plan is in effect. Neil Wrenn and Robert
Wrenn are responsible for implimenting the plan. A SPCC plan has been written
for our 10000 gallon diesel fuel tank. It is our judgement that the SPCC plan is
sufficent for our SPRP. The motor oil is in 55 gallon drums and the hydraulic oil
is in a 150 gallon tank. Both are in a secondary containment tank and only small
quanties are stored and therfore do not imediately affect the storm water runoff
into Loves Creek and do not need a spill plan as does the diesel tank
A preventitive maintenance prgram is been put into effect. The program is
basiclly aimed at spill prevention of motor oil and hydraulic oil. All leaking
equipment is to be fixed. Care is to be taken with oil changes to prevent spills.
The diesel tank is inspected at each filling for leaks or potential malfuctions. All
employees involved with these hazardous products will be trained in spill
prevention. Neil Wrenn is the responsible party for the SPPP.
Stormwater runoff will be qualitatively monitored once in the spring and once in
the fall according to qualitative monitoring requirements in Table 1. Records of
inspections will be on file and kept with this SPPP.
There will be documentation of all maintenance to vehicles, training of
employees, monitoring of stormwater,ect. kept on file for at least five years.

Stormwater Evaluation Inspection
NPDES General Permit No. NCG210179
Chatham County
On July 10, 2008, Ms. Stephanie Brixey of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a stormwater evaluation
inspection of Wrenn Brothers with the assistance of Mr. Neil Wrenn. Your help was appreciated as it eased the
inspection process.
The following observations were made:
The facility has an incomplete Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan that does not meet the
requirements of General Permit NCG210000. The Plan does not include: USGS map, detailed site map,
feasible alternatives, BMP summary, Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Plan,
employee training, responsible party list and the Stormwater Facility Inspection Program. These
requirements can be found in Part II Section A of the permit.
The facility does not have a copy of the General Permit and Certificate of Coverage on -site. A copy of
the Certificate of Coverage is attached to this letter for your records. The General Permit can be found
at: htti)://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms Documents htm
The semiannual qualitative monitoring has not been conducted as required by the permit. This
requirement is found in Part II Section B.
4. Silt fencing had been put up at Outfall #2 to prevent bark and other materials from entering into Loves
Creek. During the inspection it was noted that the silt fencing has not been maintained and is laying on
the ground in some areas. During a heavy rainfall the fencing will not prevent dirt, mulch or bark from
entering into the creek. It is pertinent that this be fixed immediately.

log is used. All manufactured products are stored in sheds or truck�trailers and
eventually sold. There is a small amount of non hazardous trash generated such
as steel strapping, plastic wrapping,ect. It is placed in a dumpster that is picked
up by a waste management company when the dumpster is full. Used motor oil
is generated from the on site servicing of the forklifts and loaders. It is collected
in 55 gallon barrels and picked up by a oil recycling company.
A site map is included with this document showing all buildings and the
manufacturing processes going on in them. All drainages ditches are shown. The
only impervious surfaces are in the buildings. All drainage of storm water goes to
either oufall #1 or outfall #2. There locations are shown on the map. Diesel
fuel,motor oil, and hydraulic oil are the potential pollutants. Because of where
these products are stored in relation to runoff water, outfall #2 could possibly be
affected if a major spill occured. The products are stored approximately 700 feet
from outfall #2 and marked on the site map.
In the past three years one spill of used motor oil has occured. Approximately 5
to 10 gallons was spilled and was cleaned up by Division of Water Quality's
instructions. A corrective action plan written to prevent future spills.
A certifcation statement will be signed with every inspection of the outfalls in
accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions,
Section B, Paragraph 5. This statement will certify there was an evauation done
for the.presence of non stormwater discharges.
Measures have been taken to prevent our hazardous products from getting into
the storm water. The diesel fuel tank has a secondary containment tank with a
cover and a check valve at the filling pipe to prevent outflow from the tank. The
hydraulic tank and all oil barrels are sitting in a secondary tank to prevent

spillage. This secondary tank is under a shelter to keep rain water out. It is our
opinion that we are following best management practices with our hazardous
substances to keep them out of the storm water runoff.
A Spill Prevention and Response Plan is in effect. Neil Wrenn and Robert
Wrenn are responsible for implimenting the plan. A SPCC plan has been written
for our 10000 gallon diesel fuel tank. It is our judgement that the SPCC plan is
sufficent for our SPRP. The motor oil is in 55 gallon drums and the hydraulic oil
is in a 150 gallon tank. Both are in a secondary containment tank and only small
quanties are stored and therfore do not imediately affect the storm water runoff
into Loves Creek and do not need a spill plan as does the diesel tank
A preventitive maintenance prgram is been put into effect. The program is
basiclly aimed at spill prevention of motor oil and hydraulic oil. All leaking
equipment is to be fixed. Care is to be taken with oil changes to prevent spills.
The diesel tank is inspected at each filling for leaks or potential malfuctions. All
employees involved with these hazardous products will be trained in spill
prevention. Neil Wrenn is the responsible party for the SPPP.
Stormwater runoff will be qualitatively monitored once in the spring and once in
the fall according to qualitative monitoring requirements in Table 1. Records of
inspections will be on file and kept with this SPPP.
There will be documentation of all maintenance to vehicles, training of
employees, monitoring of stormwater,ect. kept on file for at least five years.
