Compliance Evaluation Inspection

Pharr Yarns, LLC
NPDES permit No. NCG500214
Dear W. Corey Basinger,
This in response to the aforementioned Notice of Violation.
These two sites also double as storm water discharge points.
When these two sites are sampled the contract lab shows up and collects the samples
with no Pharr personnel present, only when the lab emails the results does anyone
at Pharr know they have been sampled. It could take as many as sixteen days from the time of
the sampling to get the results and then several days before they are downloaded. The
sampling event for March 2018 was only downloaded the day before the inspection.
To remedy the non-notification and to speed up the information transfer, the lab has been
Informed it can no longer sample without Pharr personnel present. The lab has also been
given our permit limits and will automatically send out an alert of any deviations.This will
allow the ORC to notify Division personnel within 24 hours and more sampling to be done
to verify readings or to correct any problems.
We have also identified several places where ground water could actually contaminate
the samples as they are taken. Changes to the sampling sites are ongoing to eliminate the
possibility of cross contamination.
We believe these changes, especially pertaining to lab and sampling will correct the
problems noted in Inspection.

Dear Mr. Altice:
Enclosed is a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection for the inspection conducted
at the subject facility on April 11, 2018, by Ori Tuvia. The cooperation of James Davis during the
site visit was much appreciated. Please advise the staff involved with this NPDES Permit by
forwarding a copy of the enclosed report.
The previous inspection conducted on February 22,2017 resulted in a Notice of Deficiency
(NOD-2017-PC-0027) due to the failure to report exceedances of permit limits within 24 hours
from the time the Operator in Responsible Charge (ORC) became aware of the circumstances.
Additional violations for failure to report exceedances of permit limits were discovered
during the recent inspection on April 11, 2018. At the time of the inspection it was discovered that
sampling conducted on March 1, 2017 resulted in an oil and grease violation (35 mg/L) for daily
maximum and monthly average permit limits at outfall 003. Sampling conducted on September 1,
2017 also resulted in an oil and grease violation (16 mg/L) for monthly average permit limits at
Outfall 001. The oil and grease permit daily maximum limit is 20 mg/L and the monthly average
permit limit is 15 mg/L. Neither of these exceedances of the permit limit were reported to the
Division within 24 hours from the time the ORC become aware of the circumstances.
A Notice of Violation and Notice of Recommendation for Enforcement, pursuant to G.S.
143-215.6A, may result in a civil penalty of not more than twenty-five thousand dollars
($25,000.00) per day, per violation and may be assessed against any person who violates or fails

Dear Mr. Tuvia:
This is in response to the aforementioned N.O.D.
The oil and grease violation for March 16, 2016 was inadvertently overlooked by Pharr
personnel because the limits were not on the DMRs.
I rectified this immediately after the inspection, copy enclosed, so there are no further
oversights of this kind in the future.

Record Keeping:
Comment: Daily Maximum TRC exceeded in outfall 003 for 4/09,8/09 and 3/10.
Transcription error on the outfall 003 DMR for 4/09.
Response: After every sampling event the contract lab would contact the Environmental
Manager which contacted plant personnel and ask them to remove the
chlorine from the cooling tower. Following the Inspection our Director
of Engineering became involved and the following steps have been taken
to ensure no chlorine will be in the discharge.
All plant personnel have been instructed as to what can and can not be
used in the cooling tower. The area around the tower was inspected and
all chlorine containing products were removed. Signs have been ordered
will be put on all towers that state no chlorine can be used in towers.
The transcription error was totally an error by the Environmental Manger.
I have since tried to be more careful in transcribing lab data to DMRs and will
continue to try to improve.
Upstream/Downstream Sampling:
Comment: No semiannual up and downstream temperature sampling for outfall 002
for 4/09 and outfall 003 4/09,8/09, and 3/10.
Response: Outfall 002 has since been added to the sanitary sewer. Outfall 003 has
not sampled up or downstream ever in the past. We understand that we
must ensure more stringent measures to adhere to the requirements of our
permit. Outfall 003 has since been cleared to the receiving stream with the
clearing going 100 ft. up and down.
Effluent Pipe:
Comment: Outfall 003 was not accessible.
Response: Outfall 003 has since been cleared to the receiving stream with clearing
going 100 ft. up and down. This clearing will be maintained with periodic
bush hogging.

Dear Permittee:
The facility listed above is covered under NPDES General Permit NCG500000. NCG500000 expires
on July 31, 2007. Federal(40 CFR 122.41) and North Carolina(15A NCAC 2H.0105(e))regulations require
that permit renewal applications must be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit. If
you have already mailed a renewal request,you may disregard this notice.
To satisfy this requirement,the Division must receive a renewal request postmarked no later than
February 1, 2007. Failure to request renewal by this date may result in a civil penalty assessment. Larger
penalties may be assessed depending upon the delinquency of the request. This renewal notice is being sent
well in advance of the due date so that you have adequate time to prepare your application.
If any discharge previously covered under NCG500000 will occur after July 31,2007, the
CoC must be renewed. Discharge of wastewater without a valid permit would violate North Carolina
General Statute 143-215.1; unpermitted discharges of wastewater may be assessed civil penalties of up to
$25,000 per day.
If all discharge has ceased at your facility and you wish to rescind this CoC [or if you have other
questions], contact me at the telephone number or e-mail address listed below.
Sincerely,
