Inspection Summary:
Melissa Joyner met with Mr. Evans, Owner, at the Sampson Salvage Co., Inc. facility where she reviewed the Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). The majority of the information required by General Permit NCG100000 was not
included in the SWPPP, nor had the SWPPP been implemented. Hydraulic oil was utilized at this facility, therefore a
Solvent Management Plan will be required, as stated in General Permit NCG100000, Section B-10. No Analytical or
Qualitative Monitoring had occurred. On the facility grounds, the outfalls and Best Management Practices were inspected
with no issues noted.
