Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits:
• WQ0023197 — Land Application of Residual Solids (503 exempt) — Moncure, NC WTP Alum
Residuals Land Application Program
+ NC000189 — Wastewater Discharge — Performance Fibers / Moncure: two-outfalls, the second has
some stormwater (pH, temp., TAE6C whole toxicity) -
• Air Permit - 3703700002
2. General Observations: The plant operations most likely to cause stormwater pollution are material storage, drainage
processes, loading and unloading, and 1r,,ste disposal practices.
3. Impairment: Neither, the Haw River not ,Shaddox Creek is listed on the 303d list of impaired waters; however,
they both are Water Supply Waters. The .2005 Basinwide Plan states the Haw River is Supporting aquatic life
but Moncure Plywood (NC0023442) had sigiificant violations of dissolved oxygen permit limits. Shaddox
Creek is Not Rated for aquatic life on an evaluated basis because Sierrapine Limited (NC0040701) had
significant violations with TSS permit lin7lits. The facility has installed screens to solve the TSS violations.
However, both of these issues could have adversely impacted aquatic life.
4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom there is one federal endangered
plant species within two mile of the facility is the Ptilimnium nodosum (Harperella). One state threatened
species Moxostoma sp. 3 (Carolina Redhorse).
5. Location: Facility discharges stormwater to two waterbodies: an unnamed tributary to Haw River and Shaddox
Creek.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: The only change since the last renewal application was the shutdown
and decommissioning of a beaming operation in 2007.
7: Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1. There was no data collected in the fall of 2007, 2008 and 2009
because rainfall events that occurred during those time periods (September — November) were not representative
storm events. -
The last reviewer noted the facility stores srveral chemicals outside that may be pollutants of concern. TPA,
glycol, fuel and diesel oil tanks, gasoline tanks, caustic, and -finish oil tanks are not stored under roof, according
to the site map. Many of these tanks have secondary containment with diked -area inspections required before
release. The majority of these areas drain to the NPDES wastewater outfall and fall under another permit
(NC0001899), which also includes acute toxicity -monitoring. (Information for previous staff report by Bethany
Georgoulias)
The facility uses antimony as a catalyst, and drift from two process water cooling towers is the likely source of
the metal in stormwater runoff. Antimony (Sb) was kept in the previous permit even though the reported values
were below the benchmarks because process water cooling tower drift still has potential to contaminate
stormwater. The old benchmark in the permit was 4.5 mg/l but it is now 0.09 mg/l which is''/z FAV. The EPA's
human health and organism consumption criteria is 0.006 mg/l. This value reflects the drinking water standard
(not a stream standard for water supply waters in North Carolina). This value is important to note because there
are values at outfall 3 and 4 that are above this value. The reviewer recommends retaining Antimony in
order to continue monitor this parameter.
This industry is covered in the EPA Multi -Sector permit under Sector C: Chemicals and Allied Products. The
permit includes zinc monitoring; however, this site is not a likely source. Based on the pervious staff report,
years ago, the site used a zinc coating and a zinc -containing anti -corrosive material (Zinc is monitored at the
NPDES wastewater outfall 002, where some stormwater drained); however the site no longer uses any zinc or
chromates.
Reviewer recommends retaining monitoring for pH, TSS, and Antimony; pHs are sometimes low and TSS
is over the benchmarks in 3 of the 4 outfalls.

Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Reviewer recommends retaining monitoring for pH, TSS, and Antimony: See•above for rationale.
2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part lI
Section B. The permittee.must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days,
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
31. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program.
4. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part.II Sectioif B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status. '
5. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until,the renewal permit.is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Changes to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is provided about the Site Plan requirements. The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a list of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges.. Additional information is provided in Part II Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in.Part II Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part I1,Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part II Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § I22.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided in Part I Section A.

Dear Mr. Stewart:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
On September 16, 2010, Tom Ascenzo and Vicki Webb of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a
compliance evaluation inspection of the facility. Your help was appreciated as it facilitated the
inspection process.
The following observations were made:
1. Performance Fibers, Inc. is authorized to discharge stormwater from the facility located at
Performance Fibers, Inc., 338 Pea Ridge Road, New Hill in Chatham County. The facility
discharges into the receiving waters designated as an unnamed tributary to Haw River, a
classified WS-IV stream and Shaddox Creek, a classified WS-IV stream in the Cape Fear River
Basin.
2. All components of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SP3) were present including:
detailed site map with labeled storm outfall, a list of potential contaminants, a spill and response
plan, a narrative describing BMPs, and a contact list of whom to contact in an emergency.
Employee training records were on -site. This facility maintains good housekeeping practices.
The files are kept in a well organized fashioned. Such order eased the file review process.
3. Qualitative and quantitative inspection records were available for review and appeared complete.
4. The facility contains four stormwater outfalls. All four of the facility's stormwater outfalls were
observed during the inspection. Outfall 002 had overgrown vegetation. This outfall should be
cleaned immediately. This was discussed with Mr. Stewart during the inspection.

PART II MONITORING; CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The Permittee sliall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as
the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part III, Standard
Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this individual permit. The Plan shall include, at a
minimum, the following items:
I. Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the
potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contnbute to contamination of
stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain te.followi g:
(a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted
equivalent map), showing the facility'sJocation in relation to transportation routes
and surface waters, the name of the receiving water(s) to which the stormwater
outfall(s) discharges, . or- if. the discharge is^to a municipal separate storm sewer
system, the name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters, and
accurate latitude and longitude of the;point(s) of discharge. The general location
map (or alternati ely the site map) shall identify whether each receiving water is
impaired (on the state's 303(d)"list of impaired waters) or is located in a
watershed -for whicl a TMDL has been established, and what the parameter(s)
of concern are.6 .
(b) ' .. A'narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities,
outdoor process. areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and
waste disposal practices. A- narrative description of the potential pollutants which
could be expected to be -present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall:
(c) A site map drawn to scale (including.a distance legend) showing: the site property
boundary, the stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent surface
waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including storage of materials,
disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), site
topography, all drainage features and structures, drainage areas for each outfall,
direction of flow in each drainage area, industrial activities occurring in each
drainage area, buildings, existing BMPs, and impervious surfaces. The site map
must indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility
during the three (3) previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate
spill impacts.
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in
accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions, Section
Part 1I Page 1 of 9

• Permit No. NCS000100
B, Paragraph 5. The permittee shall re -certify annually that the stormwater
outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges.
2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a
narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or
minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate the following: ;
(a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the,permittee shall
prevent exposure of all storage areas, material^handling operations, and
manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater management plan shall,do'cument the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away fram,areas of potential contamination.
(b) Secondary Containment Requiremerifs and Records. - Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage of ligti dlmaterials; storage in any amount of Section
313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA)
water priority chemicals; and storage -in any amount of hazardous substances, in
order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater. runoff. A table
or summary of all•'such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary
containment areas shall be.ma retained. If the secondary containment devices are
,Z V_ A. �
connected to stormwater,conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled
by manually activated valves -or other similar devices (which shall be secured
closed with a`locking-mechanism), and any stonmwater that accumulates -in the
containment area -shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall
staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated
stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be
uncontaminated by any material. Records documenting the individual making the
observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time
of the release shall be kept for a period of five years.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMP) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stonmwater discharges and data collected
through monitoring of stormwater discharges. The BMP Summary shall include a
written record of the specific rationale for installation and implementation of the
selected site BMPs. The BMP Summary shall be reviewed and updated annually.
3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP)
shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or the team) responsible for implementing the
SPRP shall be identified in a written list incorporated into the SPRP and signed and dated
by each individual acknowledging their responsibilities for the plan. A responsible
Part II Page 2 of 9

0 • Permit No. NCS000100
person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to
contaminate stormwater runoff through spills orexposure of materials associated with the
facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore, an oil Spill
Prevention Control and Countermeasure plan (SPCC) may be a component of the SPRP,
but may not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The
common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the
SPRP.
4. , Preventative Maintenance and good Housekeeping Program. A preventative.
maintenance and good housekeeping program shall be developed. The program shall list
all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent
surface waters and wetlands, i.ndusthal activity areas (including material storage areas,
material handling areas, disposal areas, process areas,"loading and unloading areas, and
haul roads), all drainage features and structures,'and existing structural BMPs. The
program shall establish schedules of inspections, maintenance;�and housekeeping
activities of stormwater control systems, as well as facility equipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present a potential for stormwater exposure or stonnwater pollution.
Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall
be incorporated into the program. Timely compliance with the established schedules for
inspections, maintenance, and housckeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained
in the SPPP./
<
5. Employee Training. Tratntng'programs, shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response
and cleanup, preventativemaintenanceactivities, and for any of the facility's operations
that have, the potentiallto contaminate stormwater runoff. facility personnel (or team)
responsible for implementing'the,training shall be identified, and their -annual training
shall be documented by -the signature of each employee trained.
6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific
position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and
revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented
and position assignments provided.
7. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in
design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the
potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. All aspects of the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual
basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or leaks of
pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The
annual update shall include written re -certification that the stormwater outfalls have been
evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. Each annual update shall
include a documented re-evaluation of the effectiveness of the BMPs listed in the BMP
Summary of the Stormwater Management Plan.
The Director may. notify the pennittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the
minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall

Best Management Practices Summary

Performance Fibers, Inc.
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES SUMMARY
General Best Management Practices
Best Management Practices (BMPs) are measures used to prevent or mitigate
pollution that can result from many types of industrial activities. BMPs cover a
wide range of activities that include processes, procedures, schedules of
activities, prohibitions on practices, and other management practices to prevent
or reduce stormwater pollution. BMPs are aimed at preventing environmental
incidents by stressing the importance of employee awareness of potential spill
situations.
The plant operations that are most likely to cause stormwater pollution are
material storage, drainage procedures, transfer operations and in -plant
processes, loading and unloading, and waste disposal practices. For each of
these areas, Table 4.1 offers General Best Management Practices that are
considered at the plant to reduce and prevent pollution. BMPs that have already
been implemented are identified with a """.
Fa`clilt" yfQperatidh ,y
i Best Management Practices
Bulk Storage
o Wherever practical, install roofs over storage areas
or the areas should be completely enclosed. ^
o Divert off -site drainage around storage areas. ^
o Make employees aware of the potential
environmental problems caused when spilled
products are not cleaned up immediately. ^
Drainage Procedures
o When oil or other pollutants are seen ponding in the
secondary containment areas, remove and properly

Loading and Unloading
o When feasible, protect loading and unloading areas
with roofs over docks. ^
o Where practical, install berms or proper grading to
divert stormwater from loading and unloading areas
where spills are likely to occur.
o Where storm drain grate inlets are located in loading
and unloading areas, construct concrete or asphalt
berms to divert spills and leaks from vehicles or have
mechanism for closing or protecting drain.
o Prevent leaking trucks and rail cars from entering or
leaving the plant site until the leak is stopped.
Waste Disposal Practices
o Place dumpsters under covered areas if possible or
consider covering dumpsters after use with a tarp or
other cover. The area should be large enough to
allow for emptying the dumpster without exposing
the contents to stormwater.
o if waste is stored outside, provide containers with
tight fitting lids and keep them closed except when
loading waste material into the dumpster. ^
o Use compactors that are loaded from an end or from
within a building as an alternative to dumpsters.
(Stored waste materials are less likely to come into
contact with the rainfall.) ^

Significant Changes Summary

Performance Fibers, Inc.
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES SUMMARY
The only significant change that has occurred at the Performance Fibers, Inc.
New Hill, North Carolina (Chatham County) facility since the last Stormwater
Permit Renewal Application (May 2004) was the shutdown and decommissioning
of a beaming operation in 2007.
However, there have been no additions or deletions of work processes or
significant changes in material handling/storage practices or in raw materials
used by the facility or any other change in design, construction, operation or
maintenance that would adversely impact the potential for discharge of pollutants
to surface waters.

Best Management Practices Summary

Performance Fibers, Inc.
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES SUMMARY
General Best Management Practices
Best Management Practices (BMPs) are measures used to prevent or mitigate
pollution that can result from many types of industrial activities. BMPs cover a
wide range of activities that include processes, procedures, schedules of
activities, prohibitions on practices, and
or reduce stormwater pollution. BMPs
incidents by stressing the importance c
situations.
other management practices to prevent
are aimed at preventing environmental
F employee awareness of potential spill
The plant operations that are most likely to cause stormwater pollution are
material storage, drainage procedures, transfer operations and in -plant
processes, loading and unloading, and waste disposal practices. For each of
these areas, Table 4.1 offers General Best Management Practices that are
considered at the plant to reduce and prevent pollution. BMPs that have already
been implemented are identified with a "^".
Facility Operation
"T"I .�
Best Management Practices
Bulk Storage
o Wherever practical, install roofs over storage areas
or the areas should be completely enclosed. "
o Divert off -site drainage around storage areas. "
o Make employees aware of the potential
environmental problems caused when spilled
products are not cleaned up immediately. "
Drainage Procedures
o When oil or other pollutants are seen ponding in the
secondary containment areas, remove and properly
dispose of them to prevent pollutant discharge.
Investigate causes of the release and implement
corrective actions for the root and contributing
causes. ^
Transfer Operations and In -Plant
o Have spill control materials such as absorbent socks
Processes
or booms available in areas where product and
waste transfers occur. "

Performance Fibers, Inc.
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES SUMMARY
Loading and Unloading o When feasible, protect loading and unloading areas
with roofs over docks. "
o Where practical, install berms or proper grading to
divert stormwater from loading and unloading areas
where spills are likely to occur.
o Where storm drain grate inlets are located in loading
and unloading areas, construct concrete or asphalt
berms to divert spills and leaks from vehicles or have
mechanism for closing or protecting drain.
o Prevent leaking trucks and rail cars from entering or
leaving the plant site until the leak is stopped.
Waste Disposal Practices o Place dumpsters under covered areas if possible or
consider covering dumpsters after use with a tarp or
other cover. The area should be large enough to
allow for emptying the dumpster without exposing
the contents to stormwater.
o If waste is stored outside, provide containers with
tight fitting lids and keep them closed except when
loading waste material into the dumpster. ^
o Use compactors that are loaded from an end or from
within a building as an alternative to dumpsters.
(Stored waste materials are less likely to come into
contact with the rainfall.) "

Significant Changes Summary

Performance Fibers, Inc.
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES SUMMARY
The only significant change that has occurred at the Performance Fibers, Inc.
New Hill, North Carolina (Chatham County) facility since the last Stormwater
Permit Renewal Application (May 2004) was the shutdown and decommissioning
of a beaming operation in 2007.
However, there have been no additions or deletions of work processes or
significant changes in material handling/storage practices or in raw materials
used by the facility or any other change in design, construction, operation or
maintenance that would adversely impact the potential for discharge of pollutants
to surface waters.

Cory,
I hope you have been doing well. I am Marty Stewart and I am the new Environmental Engineer at Performance Fibers,
Inc. It is my understanding through my research that a permit renewal application (Permit No. NCS000100) was submitted
2/2/2010 with the facility contact info of the previous Environmental Engineer (Charles Powell). I wanted to inquire on what
I needed to do to change that info to my information (only the facility contact name and email need to change).
Any assistance on this would be greatly'appreciated!
Have a safe day,

Central Office Review Summary:.
1. Owner's Other Permits:
• WQ0023197 — Land Application of Residual Solids (503 exempt) — Moncure, NC WTP Alum
-Residuals.Land Application -Program- -
• NC000189 — Wastewater Discharge — Performance Fibers / Moncure: two-outfalls, the second has
some stormwater (pH, temp., TAE6C whole toxicity)
• Air Permit - 3703700002
2. General Observations: The plant operations most likely to cause stormwater pollution are material storage, drainage
processes, loading and unloading, and waste disposal practices.
3. Impairment: Neither, the Haw River nor Shaddox Creek is listed on the 303d list of impaired waters; however,
they both are Water Supply Waters. The 2005 Basinwide Plan states the Haw River is Supporting aquatic life
but Moncure Plywood (NC0023442) had siDiificant violations of dissolved oxygen permit limits. Shaddox
Creek is Not Rated for aquatic life on an evaluated basis because Sierrapine Limited (NC0040701) had
significant violations with TSS permit liiiiits. The facility has installed screens to solve the TSS violations.
However, both of these issues could have adversely impacted aquatic life.
4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual Workroom there is one federal endangered
plant species within two mile of the facility is the Ptilimnium nodosum (Harperella). One state threatened
species Moxostoma sp. 3 (Carolina Redhorse).
5. Location: Facility discharges stormwater to two waterbodies: an unnamed tributary to Haw River and Shaddox
Creek.
6. Industrial Chances Since Previous -Permit: The only change since the last renewal application was the shutdown
and decommissioning of a beaming operation in 2007.
7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: See Table 1. There was no data collected in the fall of 2007, 2008 and 2009
-because rainfall events that occurred during those time periods (September — November) were not representative
storm events.
The last reviewer noted the facility stores several chemicals outside that may be pollutants of concern. TPA,
glycol, fuel and -diesel oil tanks, gasoline tanks, caustic, and -finish oil tanks are not stored under roof, according
to the site map. Many of these tanks have secondary containment with diked -area inspections required before
release. The majority of these areas drain to the NPDES wastewater outfall and fall under another permit
(NC0001899), which also includes acute toxicity monitoring. (Information for previous staff report by Bethany
Georgoulias)
The facility .uses antimony as a catalyst, and drift from two process water cooling towers is the likely source of
the metal in stormwater runoff. Antimony (Sb) was kept in the previous permit even though the reported values
were below the benchmarks because process water cooling tower drift still has potential to contaminate
stormwater. The old benchmark in the permit was 4.5 mg/l but it is now 0.09 mg/1 which is %s FAV. The EPA's
human health and organism consumption criteria is 0.006 mg/l. This value reflects the drinking water standard
(not a stream standard for water supply waters in North Carolina). This value is important to note because there
are values at outfall3 and 4 that are above this value. The reviewer recommends retaining Antimony in
order to continue monitor this parameter.
This industry is covered in the. EPA Multi -Sector permit under Sector C: Chemicals and Allied Products. The
permit includes zinc monitoring; however, this site is not a likely source. Based on the pervious staff report,
years ago, the site used a zinc coating and a zinc -containing anti -corrosive material (Zinc is monitored at the
NPDES wastewater outfall 002, where some stormwater drained); however the site no longer uses any zinc or
chromates.
Reviewer recommends retaining monitoring for pH, TSS, and Antimony; pHs are sometimes low and TSS
is over the benchmarks in 3 of the 4 outfalls.

2. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part II
Section B. The permittee must also document the total precipitation for each event. If no discharge occurs
during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days
of the end of the six-month sampling period. Additionally, samples must be taken a minimum of 60 days apart,
as specif ed in Table 2.
31. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft permit. Exceedances of benchmark values
require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or
install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program.
4. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative
storm events as defined in Part,11 Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative
outfall status.
5. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit, is issued. See, Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4,
and 5.
6. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per-DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in
this permit, however.)
7. Vehicle maintenance monitoring has been revised to semi-annually in order to coincide with analytical and
qualitative monitoring.
Other Proposed Chainges to the Previous Permit:
1. Additional guidance is'provided'about the Site Plan requirements, The site map must now identify if the
receiving stream is impaired and if it has a TMDL established. It must also describe potential pollutants in each
outfall. The map requirements are stated more explicitly. And, the site plan must contain a Iist of significant
spills that have occurred in the past three years and also must certify that the outfalls have been inspected to
ensure that they do not contain non-stormwater discharges., Additional information is provide_ d in Part H Section
A.
2. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in.Part II Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
3. Additional requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part II, Section A.
The plan must also be updated annually to include a list of significant spills and to certify that the outfalls do not
contain non-stormwater discharges.
4. The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part U Section A.
5. Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft permit. If industrial materials and
activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify
for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Additional information
is provided M—Part I Section A.

Dear Permittee:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
lea.
Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under NPDES Permit NC50000+8. This
permit is set to expire on August 31, 2010. To assure consideration for continued coverage under your
individual permit, you must apply to the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) for renewal of your permit.
Enclosed you will find an individual permit Renewal Application Form, Supplemental Information
request, and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan Certification for your facility.
Filing the app.1kcation form along with the requested supplemental information will constitute your
application for renewal of this permit. Until your permit renewal is completed and you receive a new
perm;'., please continue to comply with all conditions and monitoring requirements in your expired
NPDES stormwater permit.
The application and supplement must be completed and returned to DWQ by March 1. 2010. Failure to
request renewal within this time period will result in delay of your permit renewal and may result in a
civil assessment. Discharge of stormwater from your facility without coverage under a valid
stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could result in
assessments of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day.
If you have any questions regarding permit renewal procedures please contact Cory Larsen of the
Stormwater Permitting Unit at (919)-807-6365 or [e-mail].

values were below the benchmark, retained monitoring because
process water cooling tower drift still has' potential to contaminate
stormwater.' Added pH monitoring (site monitored for pH at all
outfalls anyway).
All monitoring has changed to Semi -Annual (spring and fall). This
change is based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater
monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater discharge
sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. In
addition, DWQ has incorporated benchmark values into the permit.
These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as
guidelines for the facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention PIan
(SPPP). New language specifies that if any measurements exceed
benchmark values, the facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its
BMPs, review and/or update its SPPP, and document any efforts to
address stormwater contamination (see Part 1I, Sec. B & D).
Total Flow monitoring has been removed per DWQ revised strategy
(Total Rainfall and Event Duration parameters retained). Instead, Part
II. Sec. A clarifies that SPPP site map include drainage area for,each
outfall in acres and percent impervious area in each drainage area
(should flow ever need to be estimated).

DOCUMENTS REVIEWED
NPDES Stormwater Permit Application Materials
S/W Permit File
Analytical &Qualitative Monitoring Results summary
Cape Fear Basinwide Plans (rev. July 2000)
Central Office Review Summary:
Facility discharges stormwater to two waterbodies: an unnamed tributary to the Haw River, and Shaddox Creek.
Neither of these waterbodies is listed on the 303(d) list of impaired waters; however, they are both Water Supply
waters. The 2000 Cape Fear Basinwide Plan addresses general stormwater (S/W) management strategies for point
sources and the Phase II MS4 program, but does not have specific recommendations for individual S/W
dischargers. No significant issues affecting this site are discussed in the chapter on sub -basin 03-06-07. The draft
2005 Cape Fear Basinwide Plan is pending release for public review.
Since last renewal, the company has had no significant changes in industrial activities. This site manufactures
polyester fiber from terephthalic acid (TPA) and ethylene glycol.
In 2003, facility applied for permit for one-time land application of alum sludge (from water treatment process) to
two fields at this site. The fields (HWFN and HWFS) are located north and south of the site, outside stormwater
drainage areas covered by this stormwater permit. See attached 9/2003 letter and map.
Qualitative Monitoring Results: Permittee sent results from 1999-03. Floating and suspended solids periodically
noted, as well as decrease in clarity occasionally observed. Site recorded possible causes in qualitative monitoring
records.
Analytical Monitoring: See attached Monitoring Data Analysis. Note —application incorrectly listed antimony
levels in µg/1—should be mg/l. The reviewer recommends keeping antimony (Sb) monitoring in the permit, even
though all values were below the benchmark concentration (4.5 mg/1). The facility uses antimony as a catalyst,
and drift from two process water cooling towers is the likely source of the metal in stormwater runoff. Because of
the persistent source, continued monitoring is appropriate to identify any future problems. [Levels at stormwater
outfall 3 were above EPA's human health and organism consumption criteria (0.006 mg/I), but this reflects a
drinking water standard (not a stream standard for water supply waters in North Carolina) and is probably not the
best benchmark.] This draft permit does note that if values are below the benchmark, but unusually high for an
outfall, the Permittee should still consider investigating sources/improving BMPs. See also the footnote to Table 3
regarding alternative benchmark value based on previous monitoring.'
Recommend retaining other monitoring requirements; pHs are sometimes low, and TSS is occasionally over
benchmark (>100 mg/1). Although site monitored for it anyway, Section B now includes pH.
The EPA Multi -Sector permit includes zinc monitoring; however, this site is not a likely source. Years ago, the site
used a zinc coating and a zinc -containing anti -corrosive material (Zn is monitored at the NPDES wastewater
outfall 002, where some stormwater drained); however the site no longer uses any zinc or chromates.
Total flow was reported, but rainfall amounts and event durations were not included in the renewal data summary
or on the DMRs. 8/8/2003 flow estimate of 1.46 MG (?) is suspect.
Facility stores several chemicals outside that may be pollutants of concern. In addition to TPA and glycol, fuel and
diesel oil tanks, gasoline tanks, caustic, and finish oil tanks are not stored under roof, according to the site map.
According to the site contact, many of these tanks have secondary containment with diked -area inspections
required before release. Also, the majority of these areas drain to the NPDES wastewater outfall and fall under
another permit (NC0001899), which also includes acute toxicity monitoring. Therefore, oil and grease monitoring
probably not necessary for this facility's stormwater permit.
Monitoring frequency will increase to semi-annually. This change ensures at least nine data points are collected
through the permit term and makes monitoring frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. Also, benchmark
values for all parameters have also been added to the permit as a guide for the permittee to check the effectiveness
of BMPs (and document efforts) when necessary.

Follow-up with the company contact (Bill Boyer, 919-545-3154) on 4/7/05 and 5/4/05:
• Verified no vehicle maintenance activities at this site.
+ VaIues for antimony in the application are in µg/l, but levels Iook too low (below standard detection
levels?) --are these mg/I instead? What is antimony used for, and what is the source in the stormwater?
Yes, double-checked lab reports —values should be mg/1. A catalyst; probably drift from process
water cooling towers.
+ Is Zn a concern?
No, not anymore. Zinc and chromates no longer used at this facility.
• How did site estimate flow amounts? (Should be reporting event duration and rainfall amounts.)
Multiply drainage surface area by surface area coefficient. If no duration and rainfall amounts were
reported, it was an oversight. These are routinely recorded to calculate flow.
• How are other chemicals contained? Has the site ever monitored for O&G?
Secondary containment; diked -area inspections before release. Most of these areas drain to NPDES
wastewater outfaU 002. Have not monitored for O&G, but have never observed stains in these areas.
Recommendation: Based on the documents revie)�ed, the application information submitted on June 1, 2004 is
sufficient to issue an Individual Stormwater Pem ip.

Permit Application
Honeywell International Inc.
Dear Sirs:
S u 1 L -2003
EK
Honeywell International is submitting the enclosed permit request for the one-time land application of alum
sludge to two fields at its facility in Moncure, North Carolina. The alum sludge was generated over many years
from the treatment of raw water (Haw River) in Honeywell's potable water treatment plant•(PWS No. 03-19-
414).
The alum sludge is composed of potable water grade aluminum sulfate along with sand, silt and clay, which
were removed from the raw water during the treatment (coagulation and flocculation) process. Spent alum
sludge is routinely removed from the treatment process and blown down to an on -site alum pond where the
solids settle out and the water is combined and discharged with effluent from the facility's wastewater treatment
plant.
During the fourth quarter of 2002 Honeywell reactivated an old alum pond by removing several year's worth of
alum sludge and reshaping the pond. The excavated alum sludge was hauled to one of the proposed Iand
application sites (Site HWFS) where it is currently stockpiled on plastic sheeting. The sludge is also covered
with sheet plastic and the pile is surrounded by secured straw bales backed by sediment fence.
Two on -site fields (identified as HWFS and HWFN) of approximately 8.5 acre each have been selected for land
application of the alum sludge. The fields were visited and the soils evaluated by a North Carolina Licensed Soil
Scientist. Based on the soil characterization, which was developed from on -site hand auger borings and chemical
analyses, both sites are deemed suitable for the application of the spent alum sludge. The recommendation is
based on the use of Site HWFN for the majority of the solids since the solids can more easily be incorporated
into the soil at this site.
Honeywell plans. are to continue to work with the soil scientist following receipt of the permit to insure the spent
alum sludge is effectively incorporated into the soil and the soil assimilates the sludge components. A post
application monitoring plan is included with the permit application to cover routine soil sampling, aluminum
assimilation and maintenance of a good vegetative cover on both fields.
The non -dedicated residuals land application package is composed of the following sections: NDRLAP, RSCA,
LASCA, RWSC and CMNA. Please review the enclosed permit application and contact me at [phone]
if there are any questions. Any questions pertaining to the soils review or nutrient availability calculations
should be directed to Mr. E. D. Black, Ph.D. at [phone].

representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified below in Table 4. Qualitative
monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan (SPPP) and assessing new sources of stormwater pollution. No analytical tests
are required. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater outfalls is performed when stormwater
discharge occurs but does not need to be performed during a representative storm event.
In the event an atypical condition is noted at a stormwater discharge outfall, the Permittee shall
document the suspected cause of the condition and any actions taken in response to the
discovery. This documentation will be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan.
All qualitative monitoring swill be performed twice per year, once in the spring (April - June) and
once in the fall (September - November).

Regional Office Staff Review & Evaluation
Facility Name: Performance Fibers, Inc. (formerly Honeywell International, Inc.)
NPDES Permit Number: NCS000100
On June 7, 2005 Raleigh Regional Staff visited Performance Fibers, Inc. in Moncure, NC
to evaluate their stormwater practices for an NPDES Stormwater Permit renewal. The
significant findings were as follows:
The RRO staff walked throughout the facility, accompanied by Bill Boyer and
Stan Mann of Performance Fibers, Inc., following the provided site maps. The
facility was laid out with trenches and berms that were in place to direct
stormwater as described by the site maps. All outfalls were examined: they were
all marked clearly and well maintained.
• One pollutant of primary concern is antimony. The antimony originates from the
cooling tower drift (it is the only process that has antimony - as verified by both
Mr. Boyer and Mr. Mann). Upon further investigation RRO staff found this to be
true — the cooling towers are closest to the drainage patterns for outfalls 02 and
03. These two outfalls had the highest levels of antimony in their discharge. The
levels, however, were low enough to not exceed benchmark values.
There was an open loading dumpster on -site that had a lot of polymer stored in it.
During rain events the polymer could easily be washed out of the dumpster (it was
enclosed by only three walls — it was designed so trucks could back into the
dumpster to load and unload). Performance Fibers, Inc. has a catchment drain
immediately down slope of the dumpster that will store any polymer runoff. This
catchment drain is pumped as needed. While the polymer is inert, it still might
impact stormwater practices by increasing sedimentation for outfall 02 (the
dumpster is part of the drainage pattern for outfall 02). This scenario, however, is
unlikely as the catchment drain is likely to catch all of the polymer runoff.
RRO staff found no evidence of poor stormwater practices and saw no reason to deny a
renewal of Performance Fibers, Inc.'s stormwater permit. Any questions should be
directed to either Christopher Wu at [phone], ext. 266 (or email at:
[e-mail]) or Chad Coburn at [phone], ext. 240 (or email at:
[e-mail]).

SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES (BMPs) and SIGNIFICANT
CHANGES

' • Honeywell International Inc. •
Moncure, North Carolina
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPs)
Best Management Practices (BMPs) are measures used to prevent or mitigate pollution that can come from various
industrial activities. BMPs cover a wide range of activities that include processes, procedures, schedules of
activities, prohibitions on practices, and other management practices to prevent or reduce stormwater pollution.
BMPs are aimed at preventing environmental incidents by stressing the importance of employee awareness of
potential contamination situations.
Plant operations that are most likely to cause stormwater pollution are material and equipment storage, drainage
procedures, transfer operations and in -plant processes, loading and unloading, and waste handling practices. For
each of these areas, Table I lists the General Best Management Practices used by this facility to reduce and prevent
stormwater pollution.
FACITLITY OPERATION
BEST MANAGEMENT ?RACTICES USED70
PREVENT STORMWATER POLLUTION
Bulk Storage
• Where ever practical, install roofs over storage
areas or enclose storage areas
• Divert off -site drainage around storage areas
• Make employees aware of the potential
environmental problems caused when spilled
products are not properly cleaned up immediately.
• Pump accumulated stormwater to process cooling
tower as make up water rather than discharging to a
stormwater ditch and using potable water to make
up for evaporation.
Drainage Procedures
• When oil or other pollutants are seen in secondary
containment areas, remove and properly dispose of
them to prevent pollutant discharge.
• Lock out controls for diked area drainage pumps
and require employees to inspect for pollutants and
complete a diked area drainage report before
draining or pumping secondary containment.
• Hold employees accountable for not following
diked area drainage procedures.
Transfer Operations and In -Plant Processes
• Vehicle unloading activities to be performed on
concrete surfaces with collection sumps. In the
event an impervious surface isn't available,
surround stormwater collection basins with
absorbent booms and keep spill clean up materials
readily available while unloading.
• Use buckets to collect residue remaining in hoses
after unloading.
Loading and Unloading
• When feasible, cover loading and unloading docks
with a roof.
• Use berms or grading to divert stormwater from
loading and unloading areas where spills are likely
to occur
• Use collection channels in the concrete to contain
spills and make spill clean up easier.
• Sweep loading areas to remove debris and other
particulate contaminants

• Honeywell International Inc.
Moncure, North Carolina
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPs)
Loading and Unloading (continued)
• Ensure bottom valves on trucks and tank cars
are tight before leaving the facility. Prevent
leaking vehicles from entering or leaving the
facility until the leak is stopped.
• Install Drainguard' catch basin inserts to
collect and remove grease, sediment, trash and
oil from loading, unloading and product
handling areas.
Waste Handling
• When feasible, place dumpsters under covered
areas or locate dumpsters where liquids will be
collected or directed to a wastewater treatment
facility.
• If waste is stored outside, provide containers
with tight fitting lids and keep them closed
except when loading waste material into the
dumpster.
• Use compactors that are loaded from the end
and have self contained sumps (liquids released
during compaction are less likely to leak out).
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES AT HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.
MONCURE, NC
Honeywell's facility in Moncure, NC manufacturers industrial strength polyester fiber for industrial applications.
Raw materials for the polyester process are terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. No changes have been made in
bulk chemicals handled, work practices, material handling practices or storage practices.

Permit No. NCSO00100
Performance Fibers

Dear Mr. Peterson:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. Please review the draft
very carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains.
The draft permit contains the following significant changes from this facility's current permit:
+ Analytical monitoring frequency for all parameters has changed to semi-annual (once in the
spring and once in the fall). This change reflects the Division's revised strategy for renewal
permits and makes stormwater sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring.
• pH monitoring is included in the permit. (This site has been routinely monitoring pH already.)
• The Division has incorporated benchmark values into the permit. These benchmarks are not
permit limits but should be used as guidelines for your facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan (SPPP). If any measurements exceed benchmark values, your facility should evaluate the
effectiveness of its Best Management Practices (BMPs), review and/or update its SPPP, and
document any efforts to address storrnwater contamination (see Part II, Sections B and D).
+ An optional alternative benchmark for Antimony is noted in the footnote for Table 3 in Part 11,
page 5.
• Total Flow monitoring has been removed. The permit still requires Total Rainfall amount and
Rainfall Event Duration be recorded for each sampling event. This change is also based on the
Division's revised strategy for storrnwater monitoring in renewal permits. Please note that the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) site map must include drainage area for each
outfall in acres and the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious (see Part 11, Sec. A).
Please submit any comments to me no later than thirty (30) days following your receipt of the draft.
Comments should be sent to the address listed at the bottom of this page. If no adverse comments are
received from the public or from you, this permit will likely be issued in about two months.

2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a
narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or
minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and
nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall
incorporate the following:
a. Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure
of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall
prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and
manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is
not practical, the stormwater management pla s 61) document the feasibility of
diverting the stormwater runoff away fr, a of pote tial contamination.
b. Secondary Containment Schedule. A e ule to - ide secondary containment
for bulk storage of liquid materials, st a Section 313 of Title III of the
Superfund Amendments and Rea 4 ati ; `ct (SARA) water priority
chemicals, or storage of hazardo st c to prevent leaks and spills from
contaminating stormwater ru f. th se ondary containment devices are
connected directly to storm er nv ance systems, the connection shall be
controlled by ma tially �i ate es or other similar devices [which shall be
secured with a to 1 sm] and any stormwater that accumulates in the
containment area s 1 at nimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall
staining, visible eens n weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated
stormwater. curnula stormwater shall be released if found to be
uncontamina by th material stored within the containment area. Records
documenting e t i idual making the observation, the description of the
accumulated stormwater and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a
period of five years.
C. BMP Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management
Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease
separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater
detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be
based on the assessment of potential of sources to contribute significant quantities
of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of
stormwater discharges.
3. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP)
shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials
inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the
SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or
exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site
stormwater specific. Therefore, a SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP, but may
not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common
elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP.

SECTION B. ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the
permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater subject to the provisions of this permit.
Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified below in Table
1.
All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event. The required
monitoring will result in a minimum of nine analytical samplings being conducted over the term
of the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). The permittee shall complete the
minimum nine analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified below in Table 2.
Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchm,
values in Table 3 are not permit limits but should be
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). The I
benchmark exceedances and evaluate the effectivene
review and/or update the SPPP and document any of
If values are not above benchmark concentratio
outfall, the Permittee should still consider inv ig
taking reasonable steps to improve BMPs. Af

2 If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a stormwater detention pond, a grab sample of the discharge from the
pond shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. If the detention pond discharges only in response
to a storm event exceeding a ten year design storm, then no analytical monitoring is required and only qualitative
monitoring shall be performed.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless representative
outfall status has been granted.

MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
Facilities which have any ve&.'7activity occurring on -site which uses more than
55 gallons of new motor oil averaged over the calendar year shall perform
analytical monitoring as speTable 5. This monitoring shall be performed at all
outfalls which discharge stofrom vehicle maintenance areas.
All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event. The required
monitoring will result in a minimum of nine analytical samplings being conducted over the term
of the permirat each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) which discharges stormwater runoff
from vehicle maintenance areas. The permittee shall complete the minimum nine analytical
samplings in accordance with the schedule specified in Table 2 (Section B).
Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchmark values in Table 6. The benchmark
values in Table 6 are not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the permittee's
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). The pem- ittee shall evaluate the sources of any
benchmark exceedances and evaluate the effectiveness of any site BMPs. The permittee shall
review and/or update the SPPP and document any efforts to address stormwater contamination.

Regional Office Staff Review & Evaluation
Facility Name: Performance Fibers, Inc. (formerly Honeywell International, Inc.)
NPDES Permit Number: NCS000100
On June 7, 2005 Raleigh Regional Staff visited Performance Fibers, Inc. in Moncure, NC
to evaluate their stormwater practices for an NPDES Stormwater Permit renewal. The
significant findings were as follows:
• The RRO staff walked throughout the facility, accompanied by Bill Boyer and
Stan Mann of Performance Fibers, Inc., following the provided site maps. The
facility was laid out with trenches and berms that were in place to direct
stormwater as described by the site maps. All outfalls were examined: they were
all marked clearly and well maintained.
• One pollutant of primary concern is antimony. The antimony originates from the
cooling tower drift (it is the only process that has antimony - as verified by both
Mr. Boyer and Mr. Mann). Upon further investigation RRO staff found this to be
true — the cooling towers are closest to the drainage patterns for outfalls 02 and
03. These two outfalls had the highest levels of antimony in their discharge. The
levels, however, were low enough to not exceed benchmark values.
• There was an open loading dumpster on -site that had a lot of polymer stored in it.
During rain events the polymer could easily be washed out of the dumpster (it was
enclosed by only three walls — it was designed so trucks could back into the
dumpster to load and unload). Performance Fibers, Inc. has a catchment drain
immediately down slope of the dumpster that will store any polymer runoff. This
catchment drain is pumped as needed. While the polymer is inert, it still might
impact stormwater practices by increasing sedimentation for outfall 02 (the
dumpster is part of the drainage pattern for outfa1102). This scenario, however, is
unlikely as the catchment drain is likely to catch all of the polymer runoff.
RRO staff found no evidence of poor stormwater practices and saw no reason to deny a
renewal of Performance Fibers, Inc.'s stormwater permit. Any questions should be
directed to either Christopher Wu at [phone], ext. 266 (or email at:
chris.wu a)ncmail.net) or Chad Coburn at [phone], ext. 240 (or email at:

Basis for Monitoring:
See attached Monitoring Data Analysis. Although all antimony (Sb)
values were below the benchmark, retained monitoring because
process water cooling tower drift still has potential to contaminate
stormwater. Added pH monitoring (site monitored for pH at all
outfalls anyway).
Basis for Other
All monitoring has changed to Semi -Annual (spring and fall). This
change is based on the Division's revised strategy for stormwater
monitoring in renewal permits and makes stormwater discharge
sampling frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. In
addition, DWQ has incorporated benchmark values into the permit.
These benchmarks are not permit limits but should be used as
guidelines for the facility's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). New language specifies that if any measurements exceed
benchmark values, the facility should evaluate the effectiveness of its
BMPs, review and/or update its SPPP, and document any efforts to
address stormwater contamination (see Part 11, Sec. B & D).
Total Flow monitoring has been removed per DWQ revised strategy
(Total Rainfall and Event Duration parameters retained). Instead, Part
11. Sec. A clarifies that SPPP site map include drainage area for each
outfaIl in acres and percent impervious area in each drainage area
(should flow ever need to be estimated).

NPDES Stormwater Permit Application Materials
S/W Permit File
Analytical &Qualitative Monitoring Results summary
Cape Fear Basinwide Plans (rev. July 2000)
Central Office Review Summary:
Facility discharges stormwater to two waterbodies: an unnamed tributary to the Haw River, and Shaddox Creek.
Neither of these waterbodies is listed on the 303(d) list of impaired waters; however, they are both Water Supply
waters. The 2000 Cape Fear Basinwide Plan addresses general stormwater (S/W) management strategies for point
sources and the Phase II MS4 program, but does not have specific recommendations for individual S/W
dischargers. No significant issues affecting this site are discussed in the chapter on sub -basin 03-06-07. The draft
2005 Cape Fear Basinwide Plan is pending release for public review.
Since Iast renewal, the company has had no significant changes in industrial activities. This site manufactures
polyester fiber from terephthalic acid (TPA) and ethylene glycol.
In 2003, facility applied for permit for one-time land application of alum sludge (from water treatment process) to
two fields at this site. The fields (HWFN and HWFS) are located north and south of the site, outside stormwater
drainage areas covered by this stormwater permit. See attached 9/2003 letter and map.
Qualitative Monitoring Results: Permittee sent results from I999-03. Floating and suspended solids periodically
noted, as well as decrease in clarity occasionally observed. Site recorded possible causes in qualitative monitoring
records.
Analytical Monitoring: See attached Monitoring Data Analysis. Note —application incorrectly listed antimony
levels in µg/I—should be mg/l. The reviewer recommends keeping antimony (Sb) monitoring in the permit, even
though all values were below the benchmark concentration (4.5 mg/1). The facility uses antimony as a catalyst,
and drift from two process water cooling towers is the likely source of the metal in stormwater runoff. Because of
the persistent source, continued monitoring is appropriate to identify any future problems. [Levels at stormwater
outfall 3 were above EPA's human health and organism consumption criteria (0.006 mg/1), but this reflects a
drinking water standard (not a stream standard for water supply waters in North Carolina) and is probably not the
best benchmark.] This draft permit does note that if values are below the benchmark, but unusually high for an
outfall, the Penmittee should still consider investigating sources/improving BMPs. See also the footnote to Table 3
regarding alternative benchmark value based on previous monitoring.
Recommend retaining other monitoring requirements; pHs are sometimes low, and TSS is occasionally over
benchmark (> 100 mg/1). Although site monitored for it anyway, Section B now includes pH.
The EPA Multi -Sector permit includes zinc monitoring; however, this site is not a likely source. Years ago, the site
used a zinc coating and a zinc -containing anti -corrosive material (Zn is monitored at the NPDES wastewater
outfall 002, where some stormwater drained); however the site no longer uses any zinc or chromates.
Total flow was reported, but rainfall amounts and event durations were not included in the renewal data summary
or on the DMRs, 8/8/2003 flow estimate of 1.46 MG (?) is suspect.
Facility stores several chemicals outside that may be pollutants of concern. In addition to TPA and glycol, fuel and
diesel oil tanks, gasoline tanks, caustic, and finish oil tanks are not stored under roof, according to the site map.
According to the site contact, many of these tanks have secondary containment with diked -area inspections
required before release. Also, the majority of these areas drain to the NPDES wastewater outfall and fall under
another permit (NC0001899), which also includes acute toxicity monitoring. Therefore, oil and grease monitoring
probably not necessary for this facility's stormwater permit.
Monitoring frequency will increase to semi-annually. This change ensures at least nine data points are collected
through the permit term and makes monitoring frequency consistent with qualitative monitoring. Also, benchmark
values for all parameters have also been added to the permit as a guide for the permittee to check the effectiveness
of BMPs (and document efforts) when necessary.

NCS000100
Follow-up with the company contact (Bill Boyer, 919-545-3154) on 4/7/05 and 5/4/05:
+ Verified no vehicle maintenance activities at this site.
+ Values for antimony in the application are in µg/l, but levels look too low (below standard detection
levels?) —are these mg/l instead? What is antimony used for, and what is the source in the stormwater?
Yes, double-checked lab reports —values should be mg/1. A catalyst; probably drift from process
water cooling towers.
+ Is Zn a concern?
No, not anymore. Zinc and chromates no longer used at this facility.
+ How did site estimate flow amounts? (Should be reporting event duration and rainfall amounts.)
Multiply drainage surface area by surface area coefficient. If no duration and rainfall amounts were
reported, it was an oversight. These are routinely recorded to calculate flow.
+ How are other chemicals contained? Has the site ever monitored for O&G?
Secondary containment; diked -area inspections before release. Most of these areas drain to NPDES
wastewater outfall 002. Have not monitored for O&G, but have never observed stains in these areas.
Recommendation: Based on the documents revie ed, the application information submitted on June 1, 2004 is
sufficient to issue an Individual Stormwater Per i 7�'

Follow-up with the company contact (Bill Boyer, 919-545-3154) on 4/7/05 and 5/4/05:
• Verified no vehicle maintenance activities at this site. 1 -
• Values for antimony in the application are in µg/l, but levels look too low (below standard detection
levels?) —are these mg/l instead? What is antimony used for, and what is the source in the stormwater?
Yes, double-checked lab reports —values should be mg/l. A catalyst; probably drift from process
water cooling towers.
• Is Zn a concern?
No, not anymore. Zinc and chromates no longer used at this facility.
• How did site estimate flow amounts? (Should be reporting event duration and rainfall amounts.)
Multiply drainage surface area by surface area coefficient. If no duration and rainfall amounts were
reported, it was an oversight. These are routinely recorded to calculate flow.
• How are other chemicals contained? Has the site ever monitored for O&G7
Secondary containment; diked -area inspections before release. Most of these areas drain to NPDES
wastewater outfall 002. Have not monitored for O&G, but have never observed stains in these areas.
Recommendation: Based on the documents revie ed, the application information submitted on June 1, 2004 is
sufficient to issue an Individual Stormwater Perp�ii

Bethany,
I received your voice mail message today. Performance Fibers has no objection to the
stormwater permit that was sent to
us in draft form. The only comments on the draft were discussed with you by phone the
other day. Please feel free to
issue the permit according to your schedule.
You are correct, I planned to send in a formal response to the draft permit, but since
PFI was in agreement with the
conditions, the letter slipped from my priority list. Please accept this response and
agreement on issuing the
stormwater permit with the requirements that were presented in the draft.

Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Renewal
Honeywell International Incorporated
Permit Number NCS000100
Chatham County
Your facility is currently covered for stormwater discharge under NPDES Permit NCS000100. This permit expires
on November 30, 2004. North Carolina Administrative Code (15A NCAC 2H.0105(e)) requires that an
application for permit renewal be filed at least 180 days prior to expiration of the current permit. In order to assure
your continued coverage under your permit, you must apply to the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) for renewal
of your permit. To make this renewal process easier, we are informing you in advance that your permit will be
expiring. Enclosed you will find an individual permit renewal application form, supplemental information request,
and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan certification.
Filing the application form along with the requested supplemental information will constitute your application for
renewal of your permit. As stated above, the application form must be completed and returned along with all
requested information by June 3, 2004 in order for the permit to be renewed by November 30, 2004.
Failure to request renewal by June 3, 2004 may result in a civil assessment of at least $500.00. Larger penalties
may be assessed depending on the delinquency of the request. Discharge of stormwater from your facility without
coverage under a valid stormwater NPDES permit would constitute a violation of NCGS 143-215.1 and could
result in assessments of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day.
If you have any questions regarding the permit renewal procedures please contact Bill Mills of the Stormwater and
General Permits Unit at [phone], ext. 548.

SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES (BMPs) and SIGNIFICANT
CHANGES

Honeywell International Inc.
Moncure, North Carolina
NPDES Stormwater Pernut No. NCS000100
SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES (BMPs)
Best Management Practices (BMPs) are measures used to prevent or mitigate pollution that can come from various
industrial activities. BMPs cover a wide range of activities that include processes, procedures, schedules of
activities, prohibitions on practices, and other management practices to prevent or reduce stormwater pollution.
BMPs are aimed at preventing environmental incidents by stressing the importance of employee awareness of
potential contamination situations.
Plant operations that are most likely `to cause stormwater pollution are material and equipment storage, drainage
procedures, transfer operations and in -plant processes, loading and unloading, and waste handling practices. For
each of these areas, Table I lists the General Best Management Practices used by this facility to reduce and prevent
stormwater pollution.
FACITLITY�'OPERATION`
BEST,MANAGEMENTrPRi1CTICES;:USED TO r
P.REVEN. > ORMWATERPOL`LU IO :....:.
Bulk Storage
• Where ever practical, install roofs over storage
areas or enclose storage areas
• Divert off -site drainage around storage areas
• Make employees aware of the potential
environmental problems caused when spilled
products are not properly cleaned up immediately.
• Pump accumulated stormwater to process cooling
tower as make up water rather than discharging to a
stormwater ditch and using potable water to make
up for evaporation.
Drainage Procedures
• When oil or other pollutants are seen in secondary
containment areas, remove and properly dispose of
them to prevent pollutant discharge.
• Lock out controls for diked area drainage pumps
and require employees to inspect for pollutants and
complete a diked area drainage report before
draining or pumping secondary containment.
• Hold employees accountable for not following
diked area drainage procedures.
Transfer Operations and In -Plant Processes
• Vehicle unloading activities to be performed on
concrete surfaces with collection sumps. In the
event an impervious surface isn't available,
surround stormwater collection basins with
absorbent booms and keep spill clean up materials
readily available while unloading.
• Use buckets to collect residue remaining in hoses
after unloading.
Loading and Unloading
• When feasible, cover loading and unloading docks
with a roof.
• Use berms or grading to divert stormwater from
loading and unloading areas where spills are likely
to occur
• Use collection channels in the concrete to contain
spills and make spill clean up easier.
• Sweep loading areas to remove debris and other
particulate contaminants

Honeywell International Inc.
Moncure, North Carolina
NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000100
SUMMARY OF BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES _BMPs)
Loading and Unloading (continued)
• Ensure bottom valves on trucks and tank cars
are tight before leaving the facility. Prevent
leaking vehicles from entering or leaving the
facility until the leak is stopped.
• Install Drainguard' catch basin inserts to
collect and remove grease, sediment, trash and
oil from loading, unloading and product
handling areas.
Waste Handling
• When feasible, place dumpstcrs under covered
areas or locate dumpsters where liquids will be
collected or directed to a wastewater treatment
facility.
• If waste is stored outside, provide containers
with tight fitting lids and keep them closed
except when loading waste material into the
dumpster.
• Use compactors that are loaded from the end
and have self contained sumps (liquids released
during compaction are less likely to leak out).
SIGNIFICANT CHANGES AT HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.
MONCURE, NC
Honeywell's facility in Moncure, NC manufacturers industrial strength polyester fiber for industrial applications.
Raw materials for the polyester process are terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. No changes have been made in
bulk chemicals handled, work practices, material handling practices or storage practices.

Hey Bethany — the permit looks very good overall... just a couple comments
1) The wastewater permit number on page 2 of the staff report I think has a typo (there's a post -
it note there).
2) You may want to consider removing the antimony monitoring. I have two concerns here...
a) Is the benchmark critera of 5.6 ug/L for drinking water or for in -stream water quality?
Although this is a WS stream, there's going to be some treatment before anyone would drink the
water I would think. It might make sense to use the 4.5 mg/L value for stormwater.
b) Even if you use the 5.6 ug/L standard, the maximum measured value is 0.06 ug/L,
which is about 90 times less than the standard.
Just a suggestion... Hope this helps!

ANTIMONY IN DRINKING -WATER
1.5 Environmental fate
The emission of antimony into the human environment appears to be exclusively the
result of human activity. Most emitted antimony is in the form of ATO, which is
released as a result of coal burning or with fly ash when antimony -containing ores are
smelted (Nriagu & Pacyna, 1988). Approximately 6400 tonnes of antimony are
transported annually to oceans (Bowen, 1979).
The chemical behaviour of antimony is as complex as that of arsenic, its neighbour in
the periodic table (Wiberg, 1985). It is speculated that antimony could be a natural co -
contaminant with arsenic in some drinking -waters (Gebel, 1999b). Soluble forms of
antimony (and arsenic) tend to be quite mobile in water, whereas less soluble species
are adsorbed onto clay or soil particles and sediments, where they are mainly bound to
extractable iron and aluminium (Crecelius et at., 1975). Although few data address the
speciation of antimony in water, those that are available together with thermodynamic
predictions indicate that the most favoured form in water will be the pentavalent oxo-
anion, Sb(OH6)" (Mohammad et al., 1990; Cotton et al., 1999).
r 2. ANAL YTICAL METHODS
Antimony can be determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption
spectrophotometry (AAS), with a detection limit of 0.8 µg/litre (EPA Method 204.2).
More sensitive determination is possible using inductively coupled plasma mass
spectrometry, with detection limits of 0.1 µgllitre in the presence of three other metals
(ICI -Technology, 1996) and 0.02 µg/litre (EPA Method 6020). Antimony(V) can be
differentiated from antimony(III) using N-(p-methoxyphenyl)-2-
furylacrylohydroxamic acid and can be determined separately by electrothermal AAS
at concentrations down to 0.01 µg of antimony per litre (Abbassi, 1989).
3. ENVIRONMENTAL LEVELS AND HUMAN EXPOSURE
3.1 Air
Atmospheric antimony concentrations of about 0.2 ng/m3 were reported for the Alps
at Jungfraujoch, Switzerland (Dams & de Jonge, 1976). In more densely populated
areas of Europe, levels between 0.6 and 32 ng/m3 were determined in the 1980s
(Hurtig, 1990). Concentrations of antimony in air are considered to be lower today
because industrial emissions have been significantly reduced by the introduction of
dust filters. At present, abrasion of antimony (and other metals) from brakes, tires and
street surfaces as well as emission of aerosolic antimony in vehicle exhaust are the
main sources of antimony in urban fine dust (Stechmann, 1993). In Gottingen, a
medium-sized city in Germany, approximately 176 kg of antimony are emitted
annually from the above sources (Plessow et al., 1997).

Honeywell International is submitting the enclosed permit request for the one-time land application of alum
sludge to two fields at its facility in Moncure, North Carolina, The alum sludge was generated over many years
from the treatment of raw water (Haw River) in Honeywell's potable water treatment plantr(PWS No. 03-19-
414).
The alum sludge is composed of potable water grade aluminum sulfate along with sand, silt and clay, which
were removed from the raw water during the treatment (coagulation and flocculation) process. Spent alum
sludge is routinely removed from the treatment process and blown down to an on -site alum pond where the
solids settle out and the water is combined and discharged with effluent from the facility's wastewater treatment
plant.
During the fourth quarter of 2002 Honeywell reactivated an old alum pond by removing seveial year's worth of
alum sludge and reshaping the pond. The excavated alum sludge was hauled to one of the proposed land
application sites (Site HWFS) where it is currently stockpiled on plastic sheeting. The sludge is also covered
with sheet plastic and the pile is surrounded by secured straw bales backed by sediment fence.
Two on -site fields (identified as HWFS and HWFN) of approximately 8.5 acre each have been selected for land
application of the alum sludge. The fields were visited and the soils evaluated by a North Carolina Licensed Soil
Scientist. Based on the soil characterization, which was developed from on -site hand auger borings and chemical
analyses, both sites are deemed suitable for the application of the spent alum sludge. The recommendation is
based on the use of Site HWFN for the majority of the solids since the solids can more easily be incorporated
into the soil at this site.
Honeywell plans are to continue to work with the soil scientist following receipt of the permit to insure the spent
alum sludge is effectively incorporated into the soil and the soil assimilates the sludge components. A post
application monitoring plan is included with the permit application to cover routine soil sampling, aluminum
assimilation and maintenance of a good vegetative cover on both fields.
The non -dedicated residuals land application package is composed of the following sections: NDRLAP, RSCA,
LASCA, RWSC and CMNA. Please review the enclosed permit application and contact me at [phone]
if there are any questions. Any questions pertaining to the soils review or nutrient availability calculations
should be directed to Mr. E. D. Black, Ph.D. at [phone].
