Dear Mr. Stewart:
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 outfali, 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.

Dear Mr. Boyer:
Enclosed are checklists transmitting the findings of the subject inspections which I
conducted on June 14, 2005. You, Larry Murray, Michael Borchers and Mr. Cranza McKoy
represented Performance Fibers during the inspection. Your cooperation and assistance is
appreciated. As a result of the inspections, I offer the following comments and
recommendations:
I ) The wastewater treatment facilities for Pipe 001 are permitted for 0.244 MGD and consists of
an influent mixing basin for process wastewater with sulfuric acid addition as needed, a spill
pond, a 650,000 gallon aeration basin with four floating aerators, clarifier, sludge drying bed,
2 alum ponds for waste from a water treatment plant, polishing pond, chlorine contact
chamber, and effluent flowmeter with discharge to the Haw River. Pipe 002 discharges
water form the fire pond overflow, condensate and stormwater to an unnamed tributary to
Shaddox Creek.
2) A review of the plant records indicated that all records are being kept as required. A
comparison of the January 2005 DMR indicated no discrepancies. A review of the data
submitted for the facility from July 2004 through June 2005 indicated compliance with the
final effluent limits and monitoring requirements contained in the NPDES Permit,
3) The effluent appeared clear with no floating solids.
4) Stormwater records were reviewed and found to be satisfactory. All stormwater outfalls
were observed and no problems were noted.
If you have questions concerning this report. Please contact me at [phone].
