Subject: Return of NPDES Modification
Application
INVISTA S.a.r.l.
Lenoir County
Permit NC0003760
Return # 2228
Dear Mr. Vincent:
The Division of Water Quality received the Application for Modification of INVISTA
NPDES Permit # NC0003760. Review of the application by the Stormwater Permitting Unit
indicated that there is a potential for contamination of stormwater by organic and inorganic
pollutants. Mr. Ken Pickle of the Stormwater Permitting Unit suggested a monitoring plan for
new stormwater outfalls as a condition of permit modification. During the conference call
(05/20/2005) permittee's representatives and consultants were informed of the new requirements
and made a decision to conduct stormwater sampling before the permit modification is made.
Therefore, your application is being returned. Please resubmit your application after all
information required by the Stormwater Permitting Unit is collected; any additional flow data
and chemical composition data should be also included. Please make sure that all submitted
forms are signed and dated, and terms that are used in your request are consistent in all the
documents.
Please refer to the subject permit application number when providing the requested
information. Please submit three copies of all information to the address below. If you have
any questions, please contact me at (919) 733-5083, extension 594, or at e-mail address:
sergei.chernikov@ncmail.net.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Pickle,

DENR - WATER QUALITY
POINT SOURCE BRANCH
We would like to thank you for taking time to discuss the status
of the NPDES Application for Modification for the former INVISTA
facility located in Kinston, NC. As discussed on our phone call
on May 19th, INVISTA S.a r.l. (INVISTA) sold the Kinston facility
to Unifi Kinston, LLC (Unifi) effective September 30, 2004, which
now operates the facility. The real property is still owned by
DuPont and leased to Unifi. INVISTA agreed to complete the NPDES
permit application process and has retained the services of
Conestoga -Rovers and Associates (CRA) to complete this task.
The September 2004 application was submitted prior to the sale of
the facility and therefore was submitted as a permit to be issued
to INVISTA. However, as a result of the sale of the facility,
the permit application now needs to be revised to reflect Unifi
as the owner and resubmitted with certifications from its
Responsible Official.
In addition, Unifi has requested that INVISTA and CRA obtain
additional stormwater monitoring data to be included with the
revised application. It is our understanding from our call on May
19th that DENR is in agreement that this monitoring data should be
collected and included for consideration in the permit
modification. It is also our understanding that DENR acknowledges
that this will result in a delay in submitting the revised
application.
Mr. Ken Pickle - NC DENR
June 2, 2005

It is our understanding that DENR will return the September 2004
Application for Modification and that the entire application will
need to be resubmitted once revisions are made. INVISTA and CRA
will continue to work with Unifi to complete the preparation of
the revised application and to address the comments received from
DENR. INVISTA will provide the revised application to Unifi for
its certifications and for submittal to DENR. A revised
application will be prepared and submitted to DENR as soon as
practical to address the comments received from your office and
to reflect the ownership change from INVISTA to Unifi.
Should you have any questions or comments, please contact my
office at 843-278-2397.
Respectfully submitted,
