Please review the draft carefully to ensure thorough understanding of the conditions and requirements it contains. The draft permit contains the following significant changes from the facility's current permit: 1. You are required to collect analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during "measurable storm events" as defined in Part II, Section B. This term is different from the "representative storm event" in earlier permits. 2. Requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Plan (SPPP) have been updated in Part II, Section A. 3. Changes have been made to monitoring parameters, including a change to two benchmarks. Stormwater benchmarks are not permit Iimits, but rather guidelines for implementing the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). A benchmark exceedance is not a permit violation; however, the permittee must respond to exceedances as directed in the Tiers. • The Copper benchmark is increased to .010 mg/L. • Vehicle maintenance monitoring parameters have been revised as follows: o Non -Polar Oil & Grease [EPA Method 1664 (SGT-HEM)] replaces Oil & Grease/TPH. The benchmark for Non -polar Oil & Grease is 15 mg/L. This requirement appears in all individual stormwater permits; however, it only applies to facilities that perform onsite State of North Carolina I Environmental Quality I Energy, Mineral and land Resources 1612 Mail Service Center 1 512 North Salisbury Street I Raleigh, NC 27699-1612 919 707 9200 T vehicle maintenance activities.

They took back the facility operation from their contractor in Jan 2015, but have not yet operated the site. In preparation for operation they made several discoveries related to non-compliance with NCS000132. Joe reports the following: • Failure to update SPPP • Failure to submit required DMRs • Using lab tests with MDL/PQL above the benchmark values • Failure to conduct monthly sampling in response to consecutive exceedances for Cu • Failure to contact RRO upon entering Tier 3 for four exceedances of Cu Ga-P is preparing to bundle up all the DMRs, confess their other permit violations by their contractor, and send a letter to RRO (with courtesy copy to SPP), as per the administrative procedure identified in the permit. It sounds like they are ready to begin some coherent site investigation in order to see what can be done about the Cu exceedances. John, let us know if you want any help in working with these folks in Tier 3.

Georgia-Pacific has implemented a Tier I and Tier II response regarding the copper benchmark exceedances and will continue working to identify the source of the copper in the Facility's stormwater discharge and implement steps to reduce it. We would also be happy to discuss potential measures with the Regional Office, either over the phone on at our facility. The DMR cover letter, on which Mr. Ken Pickle is also copied, provides additional information regarding Georgia-Pacific's resumption of operational control over the Facility and our efforts to ensure it is in compliance with the Permit.

North Carolina LPermit No. NCS000132) To Whom It May Concern: In accordance with the requirements of NPDES Permit Number NCSOOO132 (the "Permit") for Georgia-Pacific Treated Lumber LLC's ("Georgia-Pacific") facility located at 100 Tucker Lumber Road in Henderson, North Carolina (the "Facility"), please find enclosed Georgia-Pacific's discharge monitoring report ("DMR") for a storm water sample taken at the Facility on October 27, 20I5. Until recently, Georgia-Pacific had contracted with a third party to operate the Facility, and that contractor had responsibility for conducting required storm water sampling and meeting the other Permit requirements. The contractor ceased treating operations by January 2015, at which time Georgia-Pacific terminated its relationship with the contractor. The Facility has remained idled since that time. Since our resumption of control over the Facility, we have identified concerns with previous DMRs indicating that copper may not have been detected in the Facility's stormwater discharge because the detection limit for the laboratory analysis was higher than the copper benchmark level in the Permit. In addition, we have identified a total of four stormwater samples taken since the effective date of the Permit, in which copper was detected at concentrations above the applicable benchmark level, including two consecutive, semi-annual samples taken during 2013. Accordingly, the Facility has initiated monthly stormwater sampling and is submitting written notice of four copper benchmark exceedances to the Department of Environmental Quality's ("DEQ") Raleigh Regional Office. A copy of that notification is enclosed. Since assuming control over the Facility, Georgia-Pacific has also been unable to locate records of the periodic inspections, SWPPP updates or Tier I / Tier II responses performed by the contractor during the time it operated the Facility. As of the date of this correspondence, Georgia-Pacific has updated the Facility's SWPPP, completed all of the tasks for which we cannot locate records of their completion, and we are implementing a Tier I and Tier II response regarding the copper benchmark exceedance reflected on the enclosed DMR. Therefore, we believe the Facility is now in compliance with the Permit. Georgia-Pacific Treated Lumber, LLC will continue working to identify the source of the copper in the Facility's stormwater discharge and implement steps to reduce it. If you have any questions or require additional information, please call Jimmy Lay at 541-954-6737 or email me at HLBARFIE@GAPAC.com.

The site is currently monitoring for Copper, BOD5, COD, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and pH. From the staff report, it sounds like your plant is changing over from an ammonia copper quaternary (ACQ) solution to this new chemical. Could you provide MSDS information on the new chemical, including chemical constituents? It's likely that monitoring those parameters during this changeover until renewal in 2014 will be no problem, but I think the final call would depend on what new constituents this chemical might introduce.

Typically there is not anything you need to do except revise your stormwater pollution prevention plan accordingly, but if there is a major change in chemicals used (which could affect what you should be monitoring for), we may consider a modification to an individual permit.

I have a question concerning our stormwater permit and what your department requires. Our wood treating facility is operating under NPDES Permit NCS000132 and our facility has one stormwater discharge point that we collect samples from. My question is this, Georgia-Pacific is looking into the introduction of a more "earth -friendly" less corrosive wood preservative that might be used at this facility. Our permit does not speak directly to the wood preservative that we can use and we would continue the exact same process as we are following now. Our wood treating process nor our stormwater discharge amount would not change if this preservative would be used at the plant. Does your department need any additional information before we can ship the chemical to the plant or begin using the newer chemical? Thank you in advance for your assistance concerning this item.

Signature: Georgia-Pacific Treated Lumber Henderson, North Carolina Plant Best Management Practices Best management practices (BMPs) are measures taken at the facility to prevent or mitigate water pollution from sources other than the manufacturing or treatment process. BMPs are broad ranging and may include processes, procedures, human actions, or construction. BMPs are aimed at preventing spills and similar environmental incidents by stressing the importance of management and employee awareness of potential spill situations. Advanced BMPs may be required if baseline BMPs can not adequately control sources of storm water pollution. Good Housekeeping Measures and Controls Good housekeeping practices are designed to maintain a clean and orderly work environment at this facility, the following types of good housekeeping measures are implemented in an effort to prevent pollutants from entering storm water discharges. Operation and Maintenance • Floors and ground surfaces are kept dry by using brooms, shovels, vacuum cleaners, or cleaning machines. • Garbage and waste materials are regularly picked up and properly disposed of. • All spillage is promptly removed. Where it is impractical to constantly remove spillage (such as wood -sawdust collection areas), spillage is contained in the immediate area and cleaned up at least once weekly to prevent large accumulations. Vacuum systems will be installed to collect the majority of the sawdust. • Equipment is routinely inspected to make sure it is in working order and not dripping fuel or lubricating/hydraulic oils. • The importance of spill cleanup procedures is communicated to employees through tail -gate safety and spill prevention meetings. • Containment around aboveground storage tanks is kept free of water, oil and debris. Material Storage Practices Adequate aisle space is provided to facilitate material transfer and easy access for inspections. • Treated lumber is stored on the transfer deck to eliminate treating chemicals coming into contact with the drip pad. 6 Lumber is not placed on the yard until it is completely drip free. c • Containers, drums, and bags of material are stored away from direct traffic routes to prevent accidental spills. • Containers are stacked according to manufacturers' instructions. • All Section 313 chemicals are stored where they are not exposed to stormwater. Material Inventory Procedures • An up-to-date inventory of all hazardous and nonhazardous materials kept at the facility is maintained at the plant manager's office. • All containers are labeled with the name of the material, expiration date, and health hazards. • Storage areas for hazardous materials and hazardous wastes are properly labeled and marked. Areas are selected so that should a spill occur, it will not reach escape the containment area. Employee Participation • Information on good housekeeping practices is distributed during employee -training sessions. • Good housekeeping measures are discussed at employee meetings. Preventive Maintenance and Inspections The facility's preventive maintenance and inspection program includes: • Timely inspections and maintenance of storm water management devices • Proper maintenance of facility equipment and systems As a minimum, the following practices will be employed: Visual Inspections Visual inspections are conducted routinely and after storm events to ensure that there are no non- stormwater discharges. The following areas are inspected:. • Areas around all equipment exposed to storm water • All outlet areas of lumber storage areas • Diesel Fuel containment dike • Material storage areas inside the Maintenance Shop Material handling areas (loading, unloading, and transfer) • Waste generation, storage, treatment, and disposal areas A visual inspection checklist is included at the end of this section. Equipment Repair or Replacement Problems noted during visual inspections or during routine shift work shall be promptly corrected. Malfunctioning equipment that may contribute to storm water pollution shall be promptly repaired or replaced. If repairs cannot be effected in a timely manner, the equipment shall be taken out of service until adequate repairs are made. Records Records of visual inspections are kept in the Plant Manager's Office. Spill Prevention and Response Procedures The plant's spill control and reporting procedures are outlined in detail in the SPCC Plan and in the Plants integrated OSHA Emergency Action, EPA HAZ Waste Contingency, and EPA incidental Drippage Plans. There are 3 basic spill scenarios which may occur: 1. Major fuel spill at the filling station; 2. Minor fuel or oil spill throughout plant yard due to hose or equipment failure; 2. Chemical spill at the unloading area; 3. Spills of petroleum or treating chemicals inside containment areas Minor spills of petroleum and treating chemicals can easily be cleaned up with sorbent Employees are trained to immediately clean up any incidental spills with onsite sorbent materials and store in closed drums for disposal. Major spills anywhere on plant property will drain very quickly to one of the ditches leading to Outfall 001, Earthwork equipment or sandbags will be used to construct soil dams to block the flow of spilled material to prevent an offsite release. Major spills inside containment structures do not pose a major threat to the environment but generally require outside assistance for cleanup. Employee Training Employee -training programs are instituted at the plant to inform employees of the components and goals of the SWP3. Storm water pollution prevention is discussed during the monthly plant safety meetings, when appropriate. Records of the topics discussed during employee training and of the employees attending each session are stored with the environmental files. The training program addresses three major areas: • Spill prevention and response • Good housekeeping • Materials management practices A brief description of each topic covered as part of the training program is outlined below. Spill Prevention and Response Refer to the SPCC Plan for this facility for detailed information on the following training topics: • Employees involved in the storm water pollution prevention program are shown the potential spill areas and drainage routes at the facility. • Employees are given instructions on how to report spills and the appropriate individuals to contact. • Proper material -handling procedures and storage requirements are discussed. • Employees responsible for spill response activities are taught how to quickly and safely implement the plant's spill response procedures. Good Housekeeping • Employees are instructed to regularly vacuum or sweep their work areas to prevent storm water from becoming contaminated with waste materials. • Employees are instructed to promptly clean up spilled materials to prevent storm water from becoming contaminated. • Locations of housekeeping and spill -response equipment and supplies are provided to all employees. • Employees are instructed on the proper methods for securing drums and other containers. Those employees working near containers or drums also are instructed to routinely check the integrity of the containers to make sure there are no leaks. Materials Management Practices • Employees are instructed to maintain materials in an organized manner. • Proper and safe handling procedures are discussed with employees who are responsible for handling the toxic and hazardous substances. Sediment and Erosion Control Additional lumber storage areas constructed by the previous plant owner were not properly vegetated and resulted in a major erosion control problem. The plant awarded a contract to repair the eroded areas in 2000. Most of the major problems were corrected but continued diligence and prompt attention to deficiencies is required to ensure that small problems do not develop into major ones. Due to the highly erosive soil and the large acreage of storage yards, small problems quickly become large ones due to the amount and velocity of runoff. Every effort should be made to reduce rip rap or otherwise damaged areas as quickly as they are discovered, As a result of the additional paving around the plant in 2000 and 2001, space requirements for lumber storage has been greatly reduced. An evaluation should be made to determine if one or more of the yards could be closed (remove and stockpile aggregate, scarifiy and seed) to reduce the amount of unvegetated soil exposed to stormwater. Management of Runoff Current BMP measures to reduce sediment transport offsite: • Inspect erosion -prone areas monthly and after storm events to identity areas needing attention; • Promptly reseed or sod areas deficient of vegetative cover; • Construct diversion ditches at top of cuts or eroded areas to prevent accelerated erosion until grass is established sufficiently to sustain the stormwater flow; • Riprap outlets of all culverts as necessary to reduce water velocity below the erosion value of the soil; • Scarify and seed yard areas no longer needed for lumber storage: • Evaluate the need for additional rip -rapped flumes to prevent gully erosion at water collection points; and, • Evaluate the need for silt fences and ditch checks to contain sediment at all of the new yard areas. .r�c' 3*'.r -...

Wood Preservative Chemical Conversion (Above Ground & Ground Contact) There has been a change in the plant operations as far as the selected wood preservatives used to pressure treat the white lumber received into the plant. In 2012, Georgia-Pacific decided to convert the above -ground contact wood preservative from Alkaline Copper Quaternary (ACQ) to Ecolife which is a more aqueous based preservative. This wood treating facility completed the conversion from ACQ to Ecolife on September 19, 2011. All pressure treated lumber that is designated as above ground use will be treated with Ecolife. This wood preservative is over 98% water and does not contain any hazardous solution that would negatively impact the environment or cause harm to health. On January 14, 2013, this facility completed the conversion from ACQ as our ground contact wood preservative to the use of Copper Azole type C (CA-C) as the ground contact wood preservative. All pressure treated lumber that is designated as ground contact use is currently and will be treated with CA-C. Removal of Diesel Storage Tank This facility has also removed the 10,000 gallon diesel tank from the property. This diesel tank was previously identified as "out of service" on October 2, 2006 and was at the plant at the time of the last issued stormwater permit. The decision was made to eliminate this petroleum storage container from the property since it was not in use and there were no plans to begin using this container for diesel storage. This diesel storage tank was cleaned and removed from the property in December of 2011. Additional Treated Lumber Storage Sheds The Henderson treating plant has also added two new treated lumber sheds that have been identified on the aerial photos with the plant layout and building identifications. These lumber storage sheds were constructed in October of 2011 and are 40 feet wide and 210 feet long. The location of these lumber storage sheds do not present any detrimental erosion from the stormwater runoff and provide additional protection from the rain water contact with treated lumber stored on the plant property. 0s1M wa 1 t A.tKeecl�an �W Wp�idJ DATE OF PHOTOGRAPHY JANUARY 1, 19" MAP LEGEND -- Plant vaterslxd Bdry -0- Telephtwx Pole AspWt Pavenent --� GAvert —x— Fence -- — Property Line Catch Basin _Tree 0 S rvb ♦ Stornwater Flow W. _rf, Woods -- Approx Contow mat Spot Elevation ---�--�._ STREAM MAP COMPILED BY PH13TOGRANXTRIC METHODS n.ert caom t Hendeman LurrA a TnmUnq Plant SWP3 PLAN S1TE MAP bre r . r ewr w airaae Nra� w ,vas aar• w _u o...

Real quick run-down: this wood preserver is looking to switch to "Ecolife" wood preservative from Copper Quaternary Ammonia solution. From the MSDS (I think 'Ecolife II Work Solution' is the one we want to focus on, but they'd use others attached), the main ingredients are copper oxides and 4,5-dichloro-2-octyl-isothiazolone (seems to be an emerging class of non -corroding biocides?). I don't think there's a need to modify their current Stormwater permit, which requires monitoring for copper, BODS, and COD... I'm just trying to corroborate. The permit doesn't expire until 2014, so we'd rather avoid a mod if appropriate. The COD test will miss some aromatics, but I have no earthly clue whether it picks up thiazole compounds since they're similar to pyridines (which COD also doesn't do a good job with I think). Ok, I know a little chemistry to be dangerous... but really, the question here is whether continued copper, BOD5 and COD monitoring is sufficient for us to be comfortable with their stormwater management program until renewal in 2014, should they decide to switch treatment chemicals. Thanks for any thoughts (no detailed investigation necessary if you're short on time ... we would do an in-depth review in a couple years at renewal anyhow). cheers, Bg Bethany Georgoulias Environmental Engineer NCDENR i DWQ i Stormwater Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617 512 N.

The site is currently monitoring for Copper, BOD5, COD, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and pH. From the staff report, it sounds like your plant is changing over from an ammonia copper quaternary (ACQ) solution to this new chemical. Could you provide MSDS information on the new chemical, including chemical constituents? It's likely that monitoring those parameters during this changeover until renewal in 2014 will be no problem, but I think the final call would depend on what new constituents this chemical might introduce.

I have a question concerning our stormwater permit and what your department requires. Our wood treating facility is operating under NPDES Permit NCS000132 and our facility has one stormwater discharge point that we collect samples from. My question is this, Georgia-Pacific is looking into the introduction of a more "earth -friendly" less corrosive wood preservative that might be used at this facility. Our permit does not speak directly to the wood preservative that we can use and we would continue the exact same process as we are following now. Our wood treating process nor our stormwater discharge amount would not change if this preservative would be used at the plant. Does your department need any additional information before we can ship the chemical to the plant or begin using the newer chemical? Thank you in advance for your assistance concerning this item.

General'Observations: • The activities on this site have been scaled back and industrial activities are primarily on the paved areas according to the permittee. 3. Impairment: Fishing Creek (28-79-(1)) is not on the 303(d) list. Basinwide Plan includes other parts of Fishing Creek but there are not recommendations for 28-79-(1). 4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual workroom there are no species within a two mile radius that are federally protected. 5. - Location: The outfall drains to a classified C; NSW receiving water. 6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: The treating plant has been converted from using Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) solution to an Ammonia Copper Quanternary (ACQ) solution. 7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: Samples were taken five times from 12/13/02 to 8/9/05. The site monitored for TSS, Cr, Cu, and As. Based on the permit, monitoring was not conducted two times when it should have. Two of the Cu values were over the current benchmark. The application only had four sample dates and was missing the one for 3/1/05 to 5/31/05. Central Files had more monitoring data since the application was filed. This data is included in the analytical monitoring table. In the 2008 EPA Multi -Sector General permit, Sector A "Timber Products" recommends monitoring for Cu and As for SIC code 2491. Cr, As and TSS are removed from the permit because they were below the current benchmarks. Also, Cr and As have been removed from the treating process. However, Cu was maintained because it is still a potential contaminant with the current process. BOD5 and COD have been added to some timber treated sites because high levels of these'poilutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. BOD5 and COD have been added to this permit. b C"n The outfall discharges to a classified NSW stream. Since the site has not monitored for nutrients in the past, Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorus have been added to the permit. 8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Qualitative sampling was done 10 times from 3/2/2002 to 8/9/2005. The color ranges from clear to brownish. Only a couple times were there particles or leaf particles. There was no odor, mostly clear, no foam, and no oil sheen.

Maintain monitoring for Cu. Remove monitoring for Cr, As and TSS. Add monitoring for BOD5, COD, N and P. 2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. All analytical monitoring has been set to semi-annually during a representative storm event as defined in Part I1 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. 4. 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. If the sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. 5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative outfall status. 6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5. 7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in this permit, however.) 8. 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 1I 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 riot 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 in Part I Section A.

Part II Page 4 of 10 Permit No. NCS000132 SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event. The required monitoring will result in a minimum of ten analytical samplings being conducted over the term of the permit at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours.

BMPs are broad ranging and may include processes, procedures, human actions, or construction. BMPs are aimed at preventing spills and similar environmental incidents by stressing the importance of management and employee awareness of potential spill situations. Advanced BMPs may be required if baseline BMPs can not adequately control sources of storm water pollution. 7.1 Good Housekeeping Measures and Controls Good housekeeping practices are designed to maintain a clean and orderly work environment. At this facility, the following types of good housekeeping measures are implemented in an effort to prevent pollutants from entering storm water discharges. Operation and Maintenance Floors and ground surfaces are kept dry by using brooms, shovels, vacuum cleaners, or cleaning machines. Garbage and waste materials are regularly picked up and properly disposed of. All spillage is promptly removed. Where it is impractical to constantly remove spillage (such as wood -sawdust collection areas), spillage is contained in the immediate area and cleaned up at least once weekly to prevent large accumulations. Vacuum systems will be installed to collect the majority of the sawdust. Equipment is routinely inspected to make sure it is in working order and not dripping fuel or lubricating/hydraulic oils. The importance of spill cleanup procedures is communicated to employees through tail -gate safety and spill prevention meetings. Containment around aboveground storage tanks is kept free of water, oil and debris. Henderson Treating Plant Stormwater Plan March 2005 Material Storage Practices • Adequate aisle space is provided to facilitate material transfer and easy access for inspections. • Treated lumber is stored on the transfer deck to eliminate treating chemicals coming into contact with the drip pad. Lumber is not placed on the yard until it is completely drip free. • Containers, drums, and bags of material are stored away from direct traffic routes to prevent accidental spills. • Containers are stacked according to manufacturers' instructions. All Section 313 chemicals are stored where they are not exposed to stormwater. Material Inventory Procedures • An up-to-date inventory of all hazardous and nonhazardous materials kept at the facility is maintained at the plant manager's office. • All containers are labeled with the name of the material, expiration date, and health hazards. • Storage areas for hazardous materials and hazardous wastes are properly labeled and marked. Areas are selected so that should a spill occur, it will not reach escape the containment area. Employee Participation Information on good housekeeping practices is distributed during employee - training sessions. Good housekeeping measures are discussed at employee meetings. 7.2 Preventive Maintenance and Inspections The facility's preventive maintenance and inspection program includes: • Timely inspections and maintenance of storm water management devices Proper maintenance of facility equipment and systems Henderson Treating Plant Stormwater Plan March 2005 As a minimum, the following practices will be employed: Visual Inspections Visual inspections are conducted routinely and after storm events to ensure that there are no non-stormwater discharges. The following areas are inspected: Areas around all equipment exposed to storm water All outlet areas of lumber storage areas • Diesel Fuel containment dike Material storage areas inside the Maintenance Shop Material handling areas (loading, unloading, and transfer) Waste generation, storage, treatment, and disposal areas A visual inspection checklist is included at the end of this section. Equipment Repair or Replacement Problems noted during visual inspections or during routine shift work shall be promptly corrected. Malfunctioning equipment that may contribute to storm water pollution shall be promptly repaired or replaced. if repairs cannot be effected in a timely manner, the equipment shall be taken out of service until adequate repairs are made. Records Records of visual inspections are kept in the Plant Manager's Office. 7.3 Spill Prevention and Response Procedures The plant's spill control and reporting procedures are outlined in detail in the SPCC Plan and in the Plant's integrated OSHA Emergency Action, EPA HAZ Waste Contingency, and EPA incidental Drippage Plans. There are 3 basic spill scenarios which may occur: 1. Major fuel spill at the filling station; 2. Minor fuel or oil spill throughout plant yard due to hose or equipment failure; 2. Chemical spill at the unloading area; 3. Spills of petroleum or treating chemicals inside containment areas Minor spills of petroleum and treating chemicals can easily be cleaned up with sorbent. Employees are trained to immediately clean up any incidental spills with onsite sorbent materials and store in closed drums for disposal. Henderson Treating Plant Stormwater Plan March 2005 Major spills anywhere on plant property will drain very quickly to one of the ditches leading to Outfall 001. Earthwork equipment or sandbags will be used to construct soil dams to block the flow of spilled material to prevent an offsite release. Major spills inside containment structures do not pose a major threat to the environment but generally require outside assistance for cleanup. 7.4 Employee Training Employee -training programs are instituted at the plant to inform employees of the components and goals of the SWP3. Storm water pollution prevention is discussed during the monthly plant safety meetings, when appropriate. Records of the topics discussed during employee training and of the employees attending each session are stored with the environmental files.. The training program addresses three major areas: Spill prevention and response Good housekeeping Materials management practices A brief description of each topic covered as part of the training program is outlined below. Spill Prevention and Response Refer to the SPCC Plan for this facility for detailed information on the following training topics: • Employees involved in the storm water pollution prevention program are shown the potential spill areas and drainage routes at the facility. Employees are given instructions on how to report spills and the appropriate individuals to contact. Proper material -handling procedures and storage requirements are discussed. Employees responsible for spill response activities are taught how to quickly and safely implement the plant's spill response procedures. Good Housekeeping Employees are instructed to regularly vacuum or sweep their work areas to prevent storm water from becoming contaminated with waste materials. Henderson Treating Plant 5tormwater Plan March 2005 Employees are instructed to promptly clean up spilled materials to prevent storm water from becoming contaminated. Locations of housekeeping and spill -response equipment and supplies are provided to all employees. Employees are instructed on the proper methods for securing drums and other containers. Those employees working near containers or drums also are instructed to routinely check the integrity of the containers to make sure there are no leaks. Materials Management Practices Employees are instructed to maintain materials in an organized manner. Proper and safe handling procedures are discussed with employees who are responsible for handling the toxic and hazardous substances. 7.5 Sediment and Erosion Control Additional lumber storage areas constructed by the previous plant owner were not properly vegetated and resulted in a major erosion control problem. The plant awarded a contract to repair the eroded areas in 2000. Most of the major problems were corrected but continued diligence and prompt attention to deficiencies is required to ensure that small problems do not develop into major ones. Due to the highly erosive soil and the large acreage of storage yards, small problems quickly become large ones due to the amount and velocity of runoff. Every effort should be made to reduce rip rap or otherwise damaged areas as quickly as they are discovered. As a result of the additional paving around the plant in 2000 and 2001, space requirements for lumber storage has been greatly reduced. An evaluation should be made to determine if one or more of the yards could be closed (remove and stockpile aggregate, scarifiy and seed) to reduce the amount of unvegetated soil exposed to stormwater. Henderson Treating Plant Stormwater Plan March 2005 0 7.6 Management of Runoff Current BMP measures to reduce sediment transport offsite: • Inspect erosion -prone areas monthly and after storm events to identify areas needing attention; • Promptly reseed or sod areas deficient of vegetative cover; • Construct diversion ditches at top of cuts or eroded areas to prevent accelerated erosion until grass is established sufficiently to sustain the stormwater flow; • Riprap outlets of all culverts as necessary to reduce water velocity below the erosion value of the soil; • Scarify and seed yard areas no longer needed for lumber storage; • Evaluate the need for additional riprapped flumes to prevent gully erosion at water collection points; and, • Evaluate the need for silt fences and ditch checks to contain sediment at all of the new yard areas.

General Observations: • The activities on this site have been scaled back and industrial activities are primarily on the paved areas according to the permittee. 3. Impairment: Fishing Creek (28-79-(1)) is not on the 303(d) list. Basinwide Plan includes other parts of Fishing Creek but there are not recommendations for 28-79-(1). 4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual workroom there are no species within a two mile radius that are federally protected. Location: The outfall drains to a classified C; NSW receiving water. 6. Industrial_ Changes Since Previous Permit: The treating plant has been converted from using Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) solution to an Ammonia Copper Quanternary (ACQ) solution. 7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: Samples were taken five times from 12/13/02 to 8/9/05. The site monitored for TSS, Cr, Cu, and As. Based on the permit, monitoring was not conducted two times when it should have. Two of the Cu values were over the current benchmark. The application only had four sample dates and was missing the one for 3/l/05 to 5/31/05. Central Files had more monitoring data since the application was filed. This data is included in the analytical monitoring table. In the 2008 EPA Multi -Sector General permit, Sector A "Timber Products" recommends monitoring for Cu and As for SIC code 2491. Cr, As and TSS are removed from the permit because they were below the current benchmarks. Also, Cr and As have been removed from the treating process. However, Cu was maintained because it is still a potential contaminant with the current process. BOD5 and COD have been added to some timber treated sites because high levels of these pollutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. BOD5 and COD have been added to this permit. b et"I The outfall discharges to a classified NSW stream. Since the site has not monitored for nutrients in the past, Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorus have been added to the permit. 8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Qualitative sampling was done 10 times from 3/2/2002 to 8/9/2005. The color ranges from clear to brownish. Only a couple times were there particles or leaf particles. There was no odor, mostly clear, no foam, and no oil sheen.

Maintain monitoring for Cu. Remove monitoring for Cr, As and TSS. Add monitoring for BOD5, COD, N and P. 2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. 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 specified in Table 2. 4. 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. If the sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier I guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. 5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative outfall status. 6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued. See Footnote 1 of Tables 1, 4, and 5. 7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in this permit, however.) 8. 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: l . 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 I1 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 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 § 122.26(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.

We apologize for the extended period it has taken us to get back to you on this request and we appreciate your patience as we have worked through this process. Based on your submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility the Division is granting your certification as provided for under 40 CFR 126.22(g) which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations. In addition, your coverage under general permit NCS000132 is also hereby rescinded. This rescission is based upon your certification of no exposure conditions at this facility. Please note that by our acceptance of your no exposure certification, you are obligated to maintain no exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can no longer qualify for a no - exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. Your conditional no -exposure exclusion expires in five years (April 30, 2010). At that time you must re -certify with the Division, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges from your facility. Your certification of no exposure does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations or ordinances.

Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or his authorized representative immediately upon request. 2. _Minimum Monitoring and Rep4rtingl aquirements Minimum monitoring and reporting requirements are as follows unless othefwise approved in writing by the Director of the Division of Environmental Management. a. If a facility has multiple discharge locations with substantially identical stormwater discharges that are required to be sampled, the permittee may petition the Director for representative outfall status. if it is established that the stormwater discharges are Page 6 00 tormit No. NCS000132 substantially identical and the permittee is granted representative outfall status, then sampling requirements may be performed at a reduced number of outfalls. b. Visual monitoring for color, odor, solids, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow shall be performed at all stormwater discharge outfall locations. All visual monitoring shall be documented and records maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. The initial visual monitoring event shall be performed simultaneously with the fast analytical monitoring event and documentation of only this initial visual monitoring event shall be submitted along with the required analytical monitoring submittal. C. For purposes of the stormwater sampling required in this permit, all samples shall be collected from a discharge resulting from a representative storm event (See Part II, Standard Conditions, Section A). Failure to monitor storm events in accordance with the specified frequency shall constitute a violation of this permit. If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a detention pond, the following sampling requirements shall apply: (1) If the detention pond detains the runoff generated by one inch of rainfall for 24 hours, visual observations for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens, and dry weather flow are required, but analytical sampling shall not be required. (2) If the detention pond discharges only in response to a storm event exceeding a 25- year, 24-hour storm (See Part II, Standard Conditions, Section A), the pond shall be considered a non -discharging stormwater control system and not subject to NPDES requirements, unless the discharge causes a violation of water quality standards. d. Samples analyzed in accordance with the terms of this permit shall be submitted on forms provided by the Director no later than January 31 for the previous year in which sampling was required to,'be performed. e. Analytical results from sampling during the final year of the permit term shall be submitted with the permit renewal application. f. This permit regulates stormwater discharges. Non-stormwater discharges which shall be allowed in the stormwater conveyance system are: (1) All other discharges that are authorized by a non-stormwater NPDES permit. (2) Uncontaminated groundwater, foundation drains, air -conditioner condensate without added chemicals, springs, discharges of uncontaminated potable water, waterline and fire hydrant flushings, water from footing drains, flows from riparian habitats and wetlands. (3) Discharges resulting from fire -fighting. If the storm event monitored and reported in accordance with this permit coincides with a non-stormwater discharge, the permittee shall separately monitor and report all parameters as required under the non-stormwater discharge permit and provide this information with the stormwater discharge monitoring report.

ZZ) G ]AMIA � v November 22, 1994 Mr. Dave Goodrich North Carolina Division of Environmental Management NPDES Permits Group P.0 Box 29535 Raleigh, North Carolina 2752E-0535 Dear Mr. Goodrich: After thorough review of the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (DEm) DRAFT NPDFS permit number NCS000132, C.M. Tucker Lumber Corporation, located in Middleburg, North Carolina Would like to submit the following revisions to the DRAFT permit for review. The revision of these five'(5) permit requirements will allow C.M. Tucker to feasibly'. meet the goals of the N.C. DEM NPDFS permit program: 1. In the original Notice of Intent application submitted to DEM by C.M. Tucker, two outfalls Were identified for storm water sampling. Upon review of the application, C.M. Tucker requests that representative discharge be allowed for these outfalls, thereby reducing the number of outfalls requiring sampling from two (2) to one (1) . As is shown: in the information submitted • `,a�i�'. to DEM by C.M. Tucker, the Stormwater Prevention Plan Site Drainage Map (see attached) clearly and accurately distinguishes the drainage areas and materials exposed and contained in these areas. The drainage area and mewls r,E ` stored in these two areas are similar in their potential pollutant content. Therefore, C.M. Tucker requests to use Outfall No. 1 as the representative sample point, as this outfall would potentially contain the "worse case scenario" of effluent discharge. 2. In Section 2.g.2, .-the Cut -Off Concentraion of Total. Suspended Solids (TSS)., was set at a level of 100 mglL by the Draft Permit submitted to C.M_ Tucker. This level is believed to be unattainable according to the data available to C.M- Tucker. Based upon information compiled by our consulting firm, Conversion Technology, Inc. (CTI), the average amount of TSS present in stormwater discharged from wood treaters and lumber mills across the U.S. is 1216.41 mg[L. The difference in this value and that suggested by DEM is t� significant on the order of twelve (12) times greater in concentration, from 1 mgjL to 18,680 mg1L. This dra tic variance in the values proposed by DEM and those developed from the CrI study suggest that this requirement is unattainable and unreasonable. In short, the proposed TSS level of 100 mglL is, in our opinion, insufficiently supported by the sample data obtained from groups similar in nature to C.M. Tucker. In addition, the only known materials located at C.M. Tucker that would lead to an elevated TSS are dust,, sawdust, bark and dirt, Which in and of themselves eliminate the need for such a restrictive TSS effluent discharge limitation. For these reasons C.M. Tucker P.O. BOX 7,601 N. PEARL ST- PAGELAND, SC 29728 PHONE: 803-672-6135 MAX; 803-672-5393 DEC-09-1994 09:55 FROM WATER QUALITY SECTION TO RRO P.03i06 Page -2- (Continued) is requesting a revision to the NPDFS Draft Permit of the TSS level from <•100 mgjL to 41216 MgIL, a value which more closely represents the TSS effluent discharge levels of facilities such as C.M. Tucker. 3. In Section 2.g.2, the Cut -Off Concentration of Total Copper was set at a level of .00923 mg1L. This level is believed to be unattainable according to the data available to C.M. Tucker. Using the data compiled in the previously referenced CTI study, the sampling data shows that the average amount of Total Copper in'stormwater grab samples of wood treaters is 0.13 mgjL, with a range from 0.0003 mgIL to 1.68 mgjL. Therefore, as was stated in argument No_ 2, the compiled data does not'justify the DEM proposed limit. Furthermore, in a similar survey of st+ormwater samples of wood treaters conducted by EPA, the levels of copper in grab samples was found to be 0.03 mg[L. Cnce again; the difference in these values and the values set by DM is significant. Therefore, based upon the testing data compiled by both CT 1 and EPA, C.M. Tucker is requesting a revision to the NPDF„S Draft Permit of the total Copper from <.00923 mgjL toc,13 mglL,_the value which was obtained from effluent discharge sampling of facilities similar to C.M. Tucker. 4_ C.M. Tucker would like to remove the requirement of stormwater sampling of oil and Grease; Total Recoverable Lead; and Detergents (MBAS) from Section This is based on the fact that the estimated usage of new motor oil per month by C.M. Tucker in Middleburg, N.C. is less than 40 gallons per month. This level is well beneath the minimum sampling requirement level (Section 2_ g_4 - footnote 1) of 55 gallons per month. C.M. Tucker has only 'six (6) forklifts that are maintained on --site and all tractor trailers are a� serviced off -site. The need for sampling Oil and Grease is, therefore, unnecessary. 5. The LAMES Draft Permit Section D.2 currently reads: ^'`'Duplicate signed copies of all reports required herein, shall be 4� ?" +- submitted to the following address: Division of Environmental Management Water Quality Section ATTENTION: Central Files Post Office Box 29535 �'ti.:+~�•' Raleigh, -North Carolina. 27626-0535 rr' C.M. Tucker requests a revision to Section D.2 to the following; "All reports required herein are required to be maintained on -site of the facility and must be submitted to the Director, or authorized representative of the Director upon request." This revision would lesmw the amount of paperwork between DE24 and C.M. Tucker while still supplying needed information to the Director, or authorized representative of the Director upon request. 0 . DEC-09-1994 09:56 FROM "TER QUALITY SECTION TO � RRO P.04i06 Page -3- (Continued) Tmljr In conclusion, C.M. Tucker appreciates the opportunity N.C.DEM has given for response and comments to NPDES permits. The above revision to NPDES. permit number NCS000132, will help to strengthen C.M. Tucker's Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan by helping C.M. Tucker comply with economically feasible regulations while remaining within the guidelines of the goals desired by N.C. DEM for water quality. If you have any questions concerning the study performed by CTI andior any other questions regarding any comments of C.M. Tucker's to the DRAFT NPDES Permit, please feel free to contact me at (919) 438-2238, or you may contact our environmental consultants, Conversion Technology, Inc. at (404) 263-6330.

General Observations: • The activities on this site have been scaled back and industrial activities are primarily on the paved areas according to the permittee. 3. Impairment: Fishing Creek (28-79-(1)) is not on the 303(d) list. Basinwide Plan includes other parts of Fishing Creek but there are not recommendations for 28-79-(1). 4. Threatened and Endangered: Based on the Natural Heritage Virtual workroom there are no species within a two mile radius that are federally protected. 5. Location: The outfall drains to a classified C; NSW receiving water. 6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: The treating plant has been converted from using Chromated Copper Arsenate (CCA) solution to an Ammonia Copper Quantemary (ACQ) solution. 7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: Seiples were taken five times from 12/13/02 to 8/9/05. The site monitored for TSS, Cr, Cu, and As. Based on the permit, monitoring was not conducted two times when it should have. Two of the Cu values were over the current benchmark. The application only had four sample dates and was missing the one for 3/l/05 to 5/31/05. Central Files had more monitoring data since the application was filed. This data is included in the analytical monitoring table. In the 2008 EPA Multi -Sector General permit, Sector A "Timber Products" recommends monitoring for Cu and As for SIC code 2491. Cr, As and TSS are removed from the permit because they were below the current benchmarks. Also, Cr and As have been removed from the treating process. However, Cu was maintained because it is still a potential contaminant with the current process. BOD5 and COD have been added to some timber treated sites because high levels of these pollutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. BOD5 and COD have been added to this permit. The outfall discharges to a classified NSW stream. Since the site has not monitored for nutrients in the past, Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorus have been added to the permit. 8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Qualitative sampling was done 10 times from 3/2/2002 to 8/9/2005. The color ranges from clear to brownish. Only a couple times were there particles or leaf particles. There was no odor, mostly clear, no foam, and no oil sheen.

Maintain monitoring for Cu. Remove monitoring for Cr, As and TSS. Add monitoring for BOD5, COD, N and P. 2. pH has been added to the analytical monitoring requirements. 3. 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 specified in Table 2. 4. 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. If the sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any parameter at any outfall then the facility shall follow the Tier 1 guidelines which require a facility inspection within two weeks and implementation of a mitigation plan within two months. If during the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two times in a row (consecutive), then the facility shall follow the Tier 2 guidelines which require a repetition of the steps listed for Tier 1 and also immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. 5. The permittee is required to collect all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring samples during representative storm events as defined in Part II Section B. Qualitative monitoring is required regardless of representative outfall status. 6. The permittee is responsible for all monitoring until the renewal permit is issued.. See Footnote I of Tables 1, 4, and 5. 7. The flow reporting requirement has been removed per DWQ revised strategy. (The total rainfall parameter is in this permit, however.) 8. 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 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 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 § 122.26(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.

To date, we have established Total Suspended Solids a value of 100 mg/1, regardless of the type of industry. Based on pollutant benchmark values from EPA and research from our technical support, the specified parameter is established as a pollutant of concern and not to be considered an effluent limit. Analytical sampling and monitoring of certain pollutants within an industry helps us establish levels of impact of stormwater specific from each industry and its effects on a river basin. It is believed that Best Management Practices (BMP's) implemented under the requirements of the permit should significantly reduce the pollutant loadings. 3) Copper is considered a pollutant of concern and a component of Copper - Chromium -Arsenic (CCA) wood treating facilities. Lack of sufficient data from modern CCA facilities and their impact on the river basins requires us to examine copper levels and incorporate incentives to reduce pollutant loadings through theuse of BMP's at other CCA facilities. The EPA Muti-Sector Draft Permit for group participants established a benchmark value of 0.009 mg/l for Total Copper. P.O.

Tucker Lumber Corporation, located in Middleburg, North Carolina would like to submit the following revisions to the DRAFT permit for review. The revision of these five-,(5) permit requirements will allow C.M. Tucker to feasib.ly-meet the goals of the N.C. DEM NPDES permit program: 1. In the original Notice of Intent application submitted to DEM by C.M. Tucker, c*�dr` two outfalls were identified for storm water sampling. Upon review of the yw��,ktc,` application, C.M. Tucker requests that representative discharge be allowed GW,*'� Bpi , for these outfalls, thereby reducing the number of outfalls requiring V I-W Ck' sampling from two (2) to one (1). As is shown in the information submitted to DEM by C.M. Tucker, the Stormwater Prevention Plan Site Drainage Map 1Qnur (see attached) clearly and accurately distinguishes the drainage areas and materials exposed and contained in these areas. The drainage area and materials ¢ stored in these two areas are similar in their potential pollutant content. Therefore, C.M. Tucker requests to use Outfall No. 1 as the representative sample point, as this outfall would potentially contain the "worse case scenario" of effluent discharge. 2. In Section 2.g.2, ,the Cut --Off Concentraion of Total Suspended Solids (TSS), was set at a level of 100 mglL by the Draft Permit submitted to C.M. Tucker. This level is believed to be unattainable according to the data available to C.M. Tucker. Based upon information compiled by our consulting firm, Conversion Technology, Inc. (CTI), the average amount of TSS present in stormwater discharged from wood treaters and lumber mills across the U.S. is 1216.41 mglL. The difference in this value and that suggested by DEM is significant on the order of twelve (12) times greater in concentration, from 1 mgjL to 18,680 mg1L. This dra:s,ic variance in the values proposed by DEM and those developed from the CTI study suggest that this requirement is unattainable and unreasonable. In short, the proposed TSS level of 100 mglL is, in our opinion, insufficiently supported by the sample data obtained from groups similar in nature to C.M. Tucker. In addition, the only known materials located at C.M. Tucker that would lead to an elevated TSS are dust, sawdust, bark and dirt, which in and of themselves eliminate the need for such a restrictive TSS effluent discharge limitation. For these reasons C.M. Tucker P.O. BOX 7,601 N. PEARL ST., PAGELAND, SC 29728 PHONE: 803-672-6135 FAX: 803-672-5393 Page -2- (Continued) is requesting a revision to the NPDES Draft Permit of the TSS level from < 100 mgJL to <1216 MgIL, a value which more closely represents the TSS effluent discharge levels of facilities such as C.M. Tucker. 3. In Section 2.g.2, the Cut -Off Concentration of Total Copper was set at a level of .00923 mg[L. This level is believed to be unattainable according to the data available to C.M. Tucker. Using the data compiled in the previously referenced CTI study, the sampling data shows that the average amount of Total Copper in'stormwater grab samples of wood treaters is 0.13 mg1L, with a range from 0.0003 mgJL to 1.68 mgJL. Therefore, as was stated in argument No. 2, the compiled data does not justify the DEM proposed limit. Furthermore, in a similar survey of stormwater samples of wood treaters conducted by EPA, the levels of copper in grab samples was found to be 0.03 mgJL. Once again, the difference in these values and the values set by DEM is significant. Therefore, based upon the testing data compiled by both CTI and EPA, C.M. Tucker is requestin a revision to the NPDES Draft Permit of the total Copper from C.00923 mg�L••.to<.13 mgJL, the value which was obtained from effluent discharge sampling of facilities similar to C.M. Tucker. 4.' C.M. Tucker would like to remove the requirement of stormwater sampling of Oil and Grease; Total Recoverable Lead; and Detergents (MBAS) from Section 2.g.5. This is based on the fact that the estimated usage of new motor oil �a per month by C.M. Tucker in Middleburg, N.C. is less than 40 gallons per 0\f'iol$u month. This level is well beneath the minimum sampling requirement level t( ' {section 2.'g.4 - footnote 1) of 55 gallons per month. C.M. Tucker has only six (6) forklifts that are maintained on -site and all tractor trailers are serviced off -site. The need for sampling Oil and Grease is, therefore, unnecessary. 5. The NPDES Draft Permit Section D.2 currently reads: .f,�` Duplicate signed copies of all reports required herein, shall be 1 \�L submitted to the following address: Division of Environmental Management Water Quality Section nrt ATTENTION: Central Files ` \{U Post Office Box 29535 Raleigh,,North Carolina 27626-0535 '9 C.M. Tucker requests a revision to Section D.2 to the following: "All reports required herein are required to be maintained on -site of the facility and must be submitted to the Director, or authorized representative of the Director upon request." This revision would les*m the amount of paperwork between DEM and C.M. Tucker while still supplying needed information to the Director, or authorized representative of the Director upon request. Page -3- (Continued) In conclusion, C.M. Tucker appreciates the opportunity N.C.DEM has given for response and comments to NPDES permits. The above revision to NPDES permit number NCS000132, will help to strengthen C.M. Tucker's Stormwater Pollution Prevention•Plan by helping C.M. Tucker comply with economically feasible regulations while remaining within the guidelines of the goals desired by N.C. DEM for water quality.

Such discharges shall be controlled, limited and monitored as specified below. 1. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan The Permittee shall develop a Stormwater.Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part II, Standard Conditions, Section E.8. of this permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum, the following items: a. Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the following: (1) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted equivalent map), showing the facility's location 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. (2) A narrative description of loading and unloading activities, material handling areas, liquid storage tanks, treatment chemical storage areas, treated and untreatedwood and residue storage areas, wet decking areas, dust or particulate generating processes, and waste disposal practices. (3) A site map drawn to scale with the distance legend indicating location of industrial activities (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas and loading and unloading areas), drainage structures, drainage areas for each outfall and activities occurring in the drainage area, building locations and impervious surfaces, and the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. For each outfall, where information is available, facilities that have used chlorophenolic, creosote or chromium -copper -arsenic formulations for wood surface protection or wood preserving activities onsite in .the past should identify in the inventory the following areas where contaminated soils, treatment equipment, and stored materials still remain and management practices employed to minimize the contact of these materials with stormwater runoff.. (4) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the 3 previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. Page 4 Permit No. NCS000132 (5) 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 II, Standard Conditions, Section B.9. b. 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: (1) A study addressing 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 practicable the permittee shall cover all storage areas, material handling operations, manufacturing or fueling operations to prevent materials exposure to stormwater. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practicable, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (2) A schedule to provide secondary containment for bulk storage of liquid materials, storage of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals, or storage of hazardous materials to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices [which shall be secured with a locking mechanism] and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, and visible sheens, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated. 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. (3) 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. (4) Inspection schedules of stormwater conveyances and controls and measures to be taken to limit or prevent erosion associated with the stormwater systems. c. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan shall incorporate a risk assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the plan shall be identified in the plan. 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. d. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be Page 5 Permit No. NCS000132 incorporated into the program. Good housekeeping measures in storage areas, loading and unloading, and material areas should be designed to: limit the discharge of wood debris, minimize the leachate generated from decaying -wood materials, and minimize the generation of dust. e. Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in any of the facility's operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified in the Plan. f. 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(s) assignments provided. g. Plan Ammendment. 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. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The Director may notify the permittee 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 submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part 11, Standard Conditions, Section B, #9) to the Director that the changes have been made. h. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur at a minimum on a semiannual schedule, once in the fall (September -November) and once during the spring (April - June). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities performed shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s) making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be incorporated into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Visual monitoring as required in I.A.2.g.(3) shall be performed in addition to facility inspections. i. Implementation. Implementation of the plan shall include documentation of all monitoring, measurements, inspections and maintenance activities and training provided to employees, including the log of the sampling data and of activities taken to implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or his authorized representative immediately upon request. 2. Minimum Monitoring and Repotting. $cquirements Minimum monitoring and reporting requirements are as follows unless otherwise approved in writing by the Director of the Division of Environmental Management. a. If a facility has multiple discharge locations with substantially identical stormwater discharges that are required to be sampled, the permittee may petition the Director for representative outfall status. If it is established that the stormwater discharges are Page 6 Permit No. NCS000132 substantially identical and the permittee is granted representative outfall status, then sampling requirements may be performed at a reduced number of outfalls. b. Visual monitoring for color, odor, solids, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow shall be performed at. all stormwater discharge outfall locations. All visual monitoring shall be documented and records maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. The initial visual monitoring event shall be performed simultaneously with the first analytical monitoring event and documentation of only this initial visual monitoring event shall be submitted along with the required analytical monitoring submittal. c. For purposes of the stormwater sampling required in this permit, all samples shall be collected from a discharge resulting from a representative storm event (See Part II, Standard Conditions, Section A). Failure to monitor storm events in accordance with the specified frequency shall constitute a violation of this permit. If the stormwater runoff is controlled by a detention pond, the following sampling requirements shall apply: (1) If the detention pond detains the runoff generated by one inch of rainfall for 24 hours, visual observations for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens, and dry weather flow are required, but analytical sampling shall not be required. (2) If the detention pond discharges only in response to a storm event exceeding a 25- year, 24-hour storm (See Part 11, Standard Conditions, Section A), the pond shall be considered a non -discharging stormwater control system and not subject to NPDES requirements, unless the discharge causes a violation of water quality standards. d. Samples analyzed in accordance with the terms of this permit shall be submitted on forms provided by the Director no later than January 31 for the previous year in which sampling was required to be performed. e. Analytical results from sampling during the final year of the permit term shall be submitted with the permit renewal application. f. This permit regulates stormwater discharges. Non-stormwater discharges which shall be allowed in the stormwater conveyance system are: (1) All other discharges that are authorized by a non-stormwater NPDES permit. (2) Uncontaminated groundwater, foundation drains, air -conditioner condensate without added chemicals, springs, discharges of uncontaminated potable water, waterline and fire hydrant flushings, water from footing drains, flows from riparian habitats and wetlands. (3) Discharges resulting from fire -fighting. If the storm event monitored and reported in accordance with this permit coincides with a non-stormwater discharge, the permittee shall separately monitor and report all parameters as required under the non-stormwater discharge permit and provide this information with the stormwater discharge monitoring report. Page 7 Permit No. NCS000132 g. Specific Stormwater Monitoring Requirements The specific stormwater monitoring requirements includes both analytical and visual monitoring of stormwater samples.
