Permit: NCS000048 Owner-Facility:Chemol Co Inc
Inspection Date: 07/20/2023 Inspection Type:Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) and related documentation was complete except the annual
certification. The analytical monitoring was incomplete for the lack of Tier responses for benchmark exceedances. The
facility appeared well operated and maintained except where water is bypassing trench drains that feed the wastewater
treatment plant. Two outfalls were noted in the SPPP, but a potential third was observed during the inspection that does not
drain to the other outfalls. This outfall needs to be monitored as well. If you have questions, contact the Winston-Salem
regional office.
