SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR RENEWAL OF INDIVIDUAL NPDES
STORMWATER PERMIT
The following should accompany this submittal:
(Do not submit the site Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan)
Initials
1. A copy of the current Site Map from the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. The
location of industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas
and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each outfall,
building locations and impervious surfaces should be clearly noted.
2. A summary of Analytical Monitoring results during the term of the existing permit (if your
permit required analytical sampling). Do not submit individual lab reports. The summary
can consist of a table including such items as outfall number, parameters sampled, lab
results, date sampled, and storm event data. �k
3. A summary of the Visual Monitoring results. Do not submit individual lab reports. The
summary can consist of a table including such items as outfall number, parameters
surveyed, observations, and date monitoring conducted.
4. A summary of the Best Management Practices utilized at the permitted facility. Summary
should consist of a short narrative description of each BMP's in place at the facility. If the
implementation of any BMP's is planned, please include information on these BMP's.
5. A short narrative describing any significant changes in industrial activities at the permitted
facility. Significant changes could include the addition or deletion of work processes,
changes in material handling practices, changes in material storage practices, and/or
changes in the raw materials used by the facility.
6. Certification of the development and implementation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan for the permitted facility (Sign and return attached form).
* If the final year analytical monitoring of the existing permit term has not been completed
prior to filing the renewal submittal, then the last years monitoring results should be
submitted within 30 days of receipt of the laboratory reports. (i.e. do not withhold renewal
submittal waiting on lab results)
Representative storm sampling may now be conducted anytime during the year (the April to
November window has been eliminated) and the representative rainfall event is now
defined as a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches and is preceded by at least
72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred.

DON'Ts
Use drip pans for oil collection.
Perform maintenance near an open sewer
drain.
Properly dispose of all oils and lubricants.
Maintain spare parts requiring frequent repair.
Promptly repair/replace defective equipment.
Loading/Unloading of Chemical Materials
Railcar Unloading should continue to use gates and signage to restrict access and indicate
unloading in progress as well as to locate hose connections over drip pads. Documented
procedures as well as additional training may be considered for this area.
Tank truck unloading/loading will be restricted to locations which have secondary
containment capable of holding at least a single hose volume. The area beneath tank
trucks shall be inspected for spills before and after unloading/loading.

Liquid Storage in Aboveground Storage Tanks
All storage units will be fabricated with carbon steel, polyethylene or fiberglass. No
substances will be stored in these tanks if they are not compatible with these materials.
All tanks will be inspected daily for leaks as part of normal operation procedures. In
addition, each tank shall be inspected as required in accordance to manufacturing
guidelines for internal corrosion or pitting. Remedial action will be taken to correct any
flaws in the tank structure as soon as they become apparent. Inspections and
maintenance activities will be documented in the facility maintenance records.

Any sumps that containing oil or hazardous materials will be tested periodically to
determine if a release has occurred.

Label all empty drums as empty.
Lawn Maintenance and Pesticide Application
TICONA-SHELBY lawns are maintained by facility personnel in order to project a
positive image of the facility and to control pests. Lawn maintenance includes herbicide
and fertilizer application. In order to control pests, pesticides and insecticides may be
applied around the facility, particularly in the office buildings.

Keep a minimum amount of these chemicals in
stock at the facility.
Apply pesticides, herbicides/insecticides in
accordance with label instructions.
Construction
Construction activities may occur at the facility on an irregular basis. Because of the
nature of construction, soil movement is a major component of most construction
projects. Soil erosion and runoff will be controlled during construction activities.
DOs
DON'Ts
Put up a silt fence to limit sediment runoff
from the construction area.
Establish uncontrolled soil piles near facility
drains.
Use dust suppressant measures, like watering,
if heavy construction is occurring.
Leave contaminated soil uncovered at the site
for extended -periods of time.
Put up retention walls on steep slopes.

the pumping or releasing, the amount of material pumped and the
location to which the material is pumped. If the material is water, the
log entry should indicate the analytical results of the Oil & Grease
analysis. If the material is oil, the log entry should indicate whether the

Significant Changes in Industrial Activities
Ticona - Shelby now operates part of the former the Shelby Textile Fibers Plant in
Shelby, North Carolina. In 1998, Hoechst sold the fibers portion of the facility to
KOSA. Since Hoechst retained ownership of the property, the NPDES permit and
the responsibility to implement the permit was transferred to Ticona.
In 1996, a Butandiol Recovery Unit was added to the polymer process. This unit
was a modification of existing equipment and allowed Butandiol to be recovered on
site rather than be disposed off site. This operation has -no potential impact to
stormwater.
There are no other significant changes in work processes, material handling
practices, changes in material storage practices or changes in raw materials.
