Dee Freeman
Secretary
`rhe Division has reviewed your application for a No Exposure Certification for Exclusion (NE) for the subject
facility. Based on the information provided and a site visit conducted on May 18, 2010, the NE has been approved
We are also hereby rescinding your current stormwater permit Certificate of Coverage, NCG060232.
Please note that you are obligated to maintain no -exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such
that your facility can no longer qualify for a NE, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit
coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-
permitted discharge. Your NE does not expire. In order to help assure that your facility stays in compliance
with all of the conditions in the Certification, you must self -recertify your facility at least annually. Please
see the attachment for information on self -recertification,
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 Kevin Barnett at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely
For Coleen H. Sullins

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 storm water 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, snowmelt, and/or runoff.
For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DWO 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Exposure Certification and your NPDES permit is rescinded, your facility must continue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. U 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).
You are required to self re -certify your No Exposure Exclusion annually.
For questions, please contact the DWO Regional Office for your area. (See page 6)

Inspection Summary:
DWQ staff was met on site by Richard Voiers and Jeff Duckworth. A tour was conducted of the exterior of the facility,
observing the stormwater conveyances and outfalls and site conditions_ During the visit, the SPPP manual was reviewed,
operational activities and existing stormwater exposures were discussed. Permit requirements were also reviewed as
pertaining to the most recent permit version, dated November 1, 2007. At the time of the inspection the site was found to
be in compliance with the permit. The inspector noted that the facility appears to maintain good housekeeping practices
and records were found to be in good order.
Considering current business practices and site conditions, an opportunity may exist to receive a No Exposure
Certification for the facility.

Dear Sir or Madam:
Your facility holds a general permit fi•om the North Carolina Division of Water Quality to
discharge stormwater associated with industrial activities performed at your facility. Please be

compliance with all terms and conditions included in the permit. Specifically, we will be
evaluating the following: your stormwater pollution prevention plan, stormwater outfall
locations, qualitative and analytical monitoring data and any Other activities required by your
permit. Please note that any data reported to the State must be analyzed by a facility that has a
North Carolina laboratory certification, either as a full laboratory or as a facility certified to
perform on -site field testing. If you have any questions regarding the generation of your
facility's data, please feel free to call Gary Francies at [phone].
Copies of the general permits and accompanying documents can be accessed from the following
