Section 1. Facility Activities and Process:
JCI Jones Chemicals, Inc. manufactures and repackages water treatment chemicals, including
manufacture of sodium hypochlorite solution and sodium bisulfate solution, and repackaging of chlorine,
sulfur dioxide, and sodium hydroxide solution. All chemical bulk storage tanks are located indoors,
equipped with secondary containment, and are not exposed to stormwater. Loading and unloading of
raw materials and finished products occur at the two bulk load out areas and the railroad spur. Per the
permit renewal application, the loading and unloading of bagged and drummed products takes place at
the facility loading dock. Bulk liquid products are transferred from tank trucks and rail car, and bulk
gasses are transferred from rail cars. Drip pans are used under pumps in order to reduce the potential for
contamination.
Empty drums are stored onsite which previously contained sodium hypochlorite solution (bleach),
sodium hydroxide solution, and sodium bisulfate solution. Some drums are rinsed out however most
drums contain a small residual amount of product(less than one inch). The drums are all dedicated to
the product being stored in them and are all stored in the drum secondary containment area. Chemicals
stored onsite include chlorine, sulfur dioxide, sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, and sodium
bisulfate.
Outfall SW001:
Drainage area consists of unloading/loading activities, dumpsters, empty storage containers, empty
drums, rail cars, trucks, and one (1)roll off dumpster for water filtration system waste
Why Industrial Sites with Stormwater are Subject to a Permit: Federal NPDES regulations define
stormwater discharge associated with industrial activity in 40 CFR §122.26 (b)(14) as: "the discharge
from any conveyance that is used for collecting and conveying storm water and that is directly related to
Page 1 of 6
manufacturing,processing or raw materials storage areas at an industrial plant. The term does not
include discharges from facilities or activities excluded from the NPDES program under this part 122.
For the categories of industries identified in this section, the term includes, but is not limited to, storm
water [sic] discharges from industrial plant yards; immediate access roads and rail lines used or traveled
by carriers of raw materials, manufactured products, waste material, or byproducts used or created by
the facility; material handling sites; refuse sites; sites used for the application or disposal of process
waste waters (as defined at part 401 of this chapter); sites used for the storage and maintenance of
material handling equipment; sites used for residual treatment, storage, or disposal; shipping and
receiving areas; manufacturing buildings; storage areas (including tank farms) for raw materials, and
intermediate and final products; and areas where industrial activity has taken place in the past and
significant materials remain and are exposed to storm water. For the purposes of this paragraph, material
handling activities include storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw
material, intermediate product, final product, byproduct or waste product. The term excludes areas
located on plant lands separate from the plant's industrial activities, such as office buildings and
accompanying parking lots as long as the drainage from the excluded areas is not mixed with storm
water [sic] drained from the above described areas."
Section 2. Monitoring Information and Compliance History:
• No benchmark exceedances between December 2018 and June 2023
Threatened/Endangered Species:
The Tall Larkspur(Delphinium exaltatum; NC status: T) and Carolina Heelsplitter(Lasmigona
decorate; NC Status: E; Federal status: E) are threatened and endangered species in the nearby vicinity
of the facility.
Section 3. Proposed Monitoring for Stormwater Discharges:
The Division considered potential pollutants from past and present industrial activities and data was
submitted for December 2018 to June 2023. Quantitative sampling included pH, TSS, TP, and TRC.
Parameters are based on potential pollutants in the drainage area, sampling results, and in some cases,
dependent upon future activities (e.g., ash removal through the drainage area). Below is a table of the
proposed monitoring for each outfall at the JCI site.

Stormwater Benchmarks and Tiered Response: Rather than limits,North Carolina NPDES
Stormwater permits contain benchmark concentrations. Stormwater benchmarks are numerical action
levels for stormwater monitoring. Benchmarks are not effluent limits, and benchmark exceedances are
not permit violations. Benchmarks provide facilities a tool for assessing the significance of pollutants in
stormwater discharges and the effectiveness of best management practices (BMPs). Benchmark
concentrations are intended as guidelines for the facility's development and implementation of the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP).
Benchmark exceedances require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions,
increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater BMPs in a tiered program. The permit establishes a
tiered approach to specify actions the permittee must take in response to analytical results above
benchmark concentrations. The tiered structure of the permit provides the permittee and DEMLR wide
flexibility to address issues that may arise with one or more parameters and/or outfalls.
Metals benchmarks are calculated to mimic acute water quality standards and with the guidance of
DWR. NC DWR follows established federal procedures for calculating acute standards when developing
the benchmarks. Just like the acute standards, metals benchmarks normally reflect one half of the
calculated Final Acute Value (the "1/2 FAV"). In most cases, translation into total recoverable values is
based on an assumed hardness of 25 mg/L and a total suspended solids (TSS) concentration of 10 mg/L.
Acute standards protect aquatic life from negative impacts of short-term exposure to higher levels of
Page 3 of 6
chemicals where the discharge enters a waterbody. The Stormwater Permitting Program applies this
approach because of the ephemeral nature of rainfall events.
The Division may evaluate results to determine if a smaller suite of parameters for some outfalls is
adequate to characterize potential pollution or BMP effectiveness. For example, one or more metals or
other parameters may serve as an adequate tracer for the presence of ash pollution during disturbance or
ash removal in specific drainage areas at this site. For parameters that do not have a stormwater
benchmark, the Division may develop a benchmark value if appropriate toxicity data become available
or if rising trends in concentrations suggest a persistent source.
A summary of the benchmarks in the draft permit, and their basis, is below:
Parameter Benchmark Basis
Total Suspended 100 mg/L National Urban Runoff Program(NURP) Study, 1983
Solids TSS
H 6 s.u. —9 s.u. NC Water Quality Standard(Range)
Non-Polar Oil & Review of other state's daily maximum benchmark
Grease 15 mg/L concentration for this more targeted O&G;NC WQS that
EPA Method 1664 does not allow oil sheen in waters
SGT-HEM
COD 120 mg/L BPJ; Generally found at levels 4x BOD5 in domestic
wastewaters
Total Phosphorus 2 m /L BPJ; Based on wastewater permit limits for NSW waters
TRC 28 /L '/2 FAV
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan: The proposed permit conditions reflect the EPA and NC's
pollution prevention approach to stormwater permitting. The Division's maintains that implementation
of Best Management Practices (BMPs) and traditional stormwater management practices that control the
source of pollutants meets the definition of Best Available Technology (BAT) and Best Conventional
Pollutant Control Technology(BCT). The permit conditions are not numeric effluent limitations but are
designed to be flexible requirements for implementing site-specific plans to minimize and control
pollutants in stormwater discharges associated with the industrial activity. Title 40 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) §122.44(k)(2) authorizes the use of BMPs in lieu of numeric effluent limitations in
NPDES permits when the agency finds numeric effluent limitations to be infeasible. The agency may
also impose BMP requirements which are "reasonably necessary" to carry out the purposes of the Act
under the authority of 40 CFR 122.44(k)(3). The conditions proposed in this draft permit are included
under the authority of both of these regulatory provisions. In essence, the pollution prevention and BMP
requirements operate as limitations on effluent discharges that reflect the application of BAT/BCT.
Flexibility in Tier Responses: Tier Two actions provide an opportunity for the permittee to propose an
alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Region:
• Alternatively, in lieu of steps 2 and 3, the permittee may, after two consecutive exceedances,
exercise the option of contacting the DEMLR Regional Engineer as provided below in Tier
Three. The Regional Engineer may direct the response actions on the part of the permittee as
provided in Tier Three, including reduced or additional sampling parameters or frequency.
• If pursuing the alternative above after two consecutive exceedances, the permittee may propose
an alternative monitoring plan for approval by the Regional Engineer.
Page 4 of 6
The permit therefore allows the permittee to petition the Regional Office for monitoring changes sooner
than Tier Three (upon any four benchmark exceedances) and gives guidance on one option to take. For
example, the permittee may request that mercury only be monitored semi-annually under the tiers, or
that only parameters over the benchmark be monitored more frequently. In this way, changes to the
monitoring scheme for any outfall could be handled outside of a permit modification.
Other Proposed Requirements:
• It is standard for Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan(SWPPP)requirements to include an
annual certification that stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-
stormwater discharges, and if any are identified, how those discharges are permitted or otherwise
authorized.
• Requirement to submit a request for permit modification if the facility identifies or creates any
new outfalls, removes outfalls, or alters any drainage area that changes potential pollutants.
• The Division expects the permittee to apply best professional judgment and consider the safety
of its personnel in fulfilling sampling obligations under the permit.
• Federal regulations require electronic submittal of all discharge monitoring reports (DMRs). If a
state does not establish a system to receive such submittals, then permittees must submit DMRs
electronically to the EPA.
• Quarterly QualitativeNisual Monitoring to assure regular observation of outfalls throughout
year.
Section 4. Changes from previous permit to draft:
• Regulatory citations added
• Monitoring increased from semi-annually to quarterly for all parameters (qualitative and
quantitative)
• "No discharge" clarifications made
• Feasibility study requirement removed per updated stormwater program requirements
• Annual online SWPPP certification requirement removed per updated stormwater program
requirements
• eDMR requirement updated
• Boilerplate language moved into body of the permit; boilerplate no longer attached
• Outfall-specific monitoring been implemented to reflect industrial activity and potential
pollutants specific to each discharge area
• Monitoring for COD has been added due to the storage of chemicals onsite
• Benchmarks updated for parameters per guidance from DWR Standards group on stormwater
benchmarks
Section 5. Changes from draft to final:
• None

Section 6. Discussions with the Facility and Regional Office:
• Initial contact with facility: 12/13/2023
• Initial contact with Regional Office: 12/13/2023
• Draft sent to CO peer review: N/A
• Draft sent to Regional Office: 3/13/2024
• Final permit sent for supervisor signature: N/A
Section 7. Comments received on draft permit:
• Jerry Eplin (MRO; via email 3/17/2024): This permit adds COD to the facility's monitoring
requirements. Kathryn and I wondered why this facility didn't previously have COD as a
required parameter. However, upon inspecting the facility, we found that they manufacture
chlorine gas. I believe they also manufacture sulfur dioxide gas. With those as their end products,
it made sense that COD may not be needed. Is there a specific reason it was added?
o DEMLR response: JCI's application(NCS000334) stated they manufacture and
repackage water treatment chemicals, including manufacture of sodium hypochlorite
solution and sodium bisulfite solution, and repackaging of chlorine, sulfur dioxide, and
sodium hydroxide solution. Monitoring for COD was added because of chemicals stored
onsite (chlorine, sulfur dioxide, sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, and sodium
bisulfite) and COD is a standard monitoring parameter for stormwater permits. Let me
know if you feel it should be otherwise for this permit.

ITEM 4: SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
The following practices and policies are designed to reduce or eliminate the potential for
contamination of storm water at the facility.
1. In addition to safety aspects, good housekeeping practices are an important measure
in preventing pollution. The Corporate housekeeping procedure can be found in our
Safety Training Manual. Employees are trained annually on the procedure, and
routine inspections include visual checks for housekeeping.
2. Maintaining equipment in good working order is essential in preventing pollution.
Our Maintenance Manual is devoted to facility and equipment maintenance.
Pertinent sections include procedures for inspection, maintenance and record keeping
on building, process equipment and tanks. In addition, site inspections include
equipment checks and visual inspections for buildings and tank dikes.
3. Spill prevention and response is possibly the most significant pollution prevention
measure. As such, a large portion of our corporate policies center around the
prevention and mitigation of spills, leaks and releases. Our Contingency Plan is
devoted to incident response procedures. The Contingency Plan is shared with local
emergency response agencies to facilitate rapid and appropriate response measures
and all employees are trained annually on its contents. In addition to the Contingency
Plan, five chapters of our Environmental Manual and two chapters in our Safety
Training Manual are dedicated to spill, leak, and release response. Much of the site
inspection procedure is dedicated to spill and leak detection and corrective action.
Annual safety training of employees is conducted on spill, leak, and release response.
4. All employees receive extensive training related to pollution prevention. In addition
to training on good housekeeping practices, employees receive annual training on the
Contingency Plan. Those employees who have been designated as Emergency
Responders receive a minimum of 8 hours of spill, leak, and release training each
year. Finally, all employees are periodically trained on the procedures and guidelines
for spill, leak and release response. In addition to the above, pertinent employees are
trained annually on the contents of our Spill Pollution Prevention Plan.
5. JCI has a comprehensive site inspection policy in its Environmental Manual that is
dedicated to pollution prevention. Employees perform a daily inspection for leaks
and spills, and keep a log of the inspection. The weekly site inspection is also
designed to detect spills and leaks. In addition, the weekly site inspection covers
equipment and building maintenance checks. Also, the monthly environmental report
recaps the daily and weekly inspections, and encourages review of the Contingency
Plan. In addition to the above,two qualitative storm water inspections are conducted
each year, once between January 1 -June 30 and once during July 1 - December 31.
6. The loading and unloading of bagged and drummed products takes place at the
facility loading dock. Bulk liquid products are transferred either from tank truck or
rail cars. Bulk gasses are likewise transferred from rail cars. All product loading and
unloading areas are covered by the site inspection policy. In addition, drip pans are
used under pumps in order to reduce the potential for contamination.
7. Chemical bulk storage tanks have several pollution prevention measures in place and
operational, including drip pans under pumps, regular inspections, and diking and
berming to contain potentially contaminated stormwater runoff. Also, all chemical
bulk storage tanks are within the main facility building. The chemical bulk storage
tank systems are also covered by the facility Contingency Plan for accidental or
catastrophic spills, leaks, and releases.
8. The Corporate Waste Minimization Policy is contained in our Environmental Manual.
This policy contains many techniques that can reduce or eliminate contamination of
storm water runoff. Examples of such techniques include the use of drip pans, proper
emptying and maintenance of drip pans, inspection and maintenance of all equipment,
proper drum handling procedures, and separation of storm water from other
wastewaters.
