NC Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources
Review for Permit Renewal — NCS000452
Culpeper of Ramseur, LLC
Ramseur, NC — Randolph County
• Facility Activities and Process - SIC 2491 — Wood Preserving. Appears to just use a copper treating process.
• Monitoring — The facility has been monitoring for TSS, BOD, COD, Cu, and pH. Previous permit did have tier system.
o Data from 2009 — 2017 (in renewal app and supplemental information)
o COD and BOD never above the benchmark
o Cu exceeded benchmark value four times
o pH below 6 on twenty results including the last 8 samples. No indication in information submitted on how
or if the facility responded to these exceedances to investigate the reasons or try and mitigate.
o T55 values never above benchmark, but this is a base parameter that should be maintained.
o Maintain TSS, Cu and pH in the permit
o Tier structure adjusted to have the three levels as in current permits.
o Parameter codes added to permit.
• Discussions with Facility — Discussions with current facility staff indicate that there is little onsite knowledge about
past activities. Often referenced back to previous health and safety staff with the old owner for feedback? Facility
submitted an Ownership change request with the last add info. This change will be handled in the renewal (this is
already updated in BIMS).
• Surface Water Information - Facility drains to UT to Deep River in the Cape Fear River Basin, 17-(10.5) , a class C
stream. 2016 Integrated Report indicates a listed impairment for Copper in segment 17-(10.5)d2 of the Deep River.
Include language about impairment in the permit. Previous permit noted impairment problems with turbidity and
Chlorophyll A, but these are not listed in the 2016 Integrated report for this segment. Checked with DWR Planning
Branch (Cam McNutt) on the Cu listing and it appears that this impairment is an old listing based in 2007 data (5e).
This needs to be reassessed. Still listed as impaired because EPA will not allow removal at this time. Most reviews of
this type have resulted in de -listing when more data available and compared to updated Cu standards. Will include
more generic language in the impaired section of the permit.
• NC National Heritage review— NH report shows no aquatic resources within project area or within one mile
boundary of the facility.
• Regional Office Information — W-SRO — Draft to region on 08/20/2018 by email. Previous staff report and other
information in the file indicate there were two outfalls, but most recent information from the facility and the facility
monitoring is only for one outfall. Need to verify this with site visit. Brandon visited the site on August 31, 2018 —
see email in LF. Brandon verified only one outfall. Facility regraded in the past and eliminated the second outfall.
He also verified that they continue to use the copper based treatment chemical. Brandon discussed the pH issues an
the facility feels that their pH meter has issues and they will replace and calibrate. WSRO okay with reissuance.

Brandon,
I'm going to take this email as your approval to go ahead with the reissuance of the permit? I didn't see anywhere that
it looks like you are asking for any changes.
The earliest the permit can issue is October 9th, so it will be a few weeks before the comment period is done and this one
can move forward.

Bradley,

I inspected this site Friday Aug 31". 1 spoke with personnel on site (Mr. Pugh) and they showed me to the single
outfall. They said they used to have two outfalls but one rarely discharged and the area that the stormwater came from
was all the office so when they got a chance to regrade the property they graded it so that all flow went to a singular
outfall. The site as a whole has to be one of the cleanest lumber yards I have ever seen, most (>75%) of the wood is
covered and all treatment of the wood is done inside of a warehouse. Upon speaking with the Mr. Pugh we agreed that
the most likely cause of the pH discrepancies was the actual pH probe they were using. I was informed that they were
going to buy a new one and make sure that it was properly calibrated. The only things I pointed out to them to fix was
to make sure the outfall was kept clear with a path to get to it (it was slightly overgrown while we were there) and to
make sure that the empty totes were kept under some sort of cover unless they were getting ready for pick-up (they had
two empty totes sitting out, but I was told they were getting ready to pick them up). They also still only use the copper
based treatment so no new chemicals have been introduced to the site.
I will write up a report on RIMS when I get the chance but it has been extremely busy here recently so I wanted to make
sure I got you this information while the report was still in public comment.
Let me know if you have any questions, I will be out in the field today but I will check my emails when I return.
Thanks,

Dear Mr, Adkins:
Enclosed with this letter is a copy of the draft stormwater permit for your facility. 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:
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.
Requirements for the Stormwater Pollution Plan (SPPP) have been updated in Part II, Section A.
Monitoring requirements in the draft permit have changed slightly from the previous permit.
Monitoring is proposed for Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Total Copper (Cu) and pH. Values for
TSS have been below the benchmark, but TSS is a base parameter that will remain in the permit.
Cu values have been elevated on occasions and this parameter is related to materials used in the
operations at your facility and will continue to be evaluated through regular monitoring. Please
note that the benchmark value for Cu has increased to 0.01 m/L. The pH values for your facility
have consistently been below the lower benchmark range of 6 s.u. Please be prepared to discuss
this and actions taken to address the issue with our regional office staff at our site visit.
Monitoring reported in your renewal application showed results for Biological Oxygen Demand
(BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) have been consistently below the benchmark values.
The draft permit proposes to remove these parameters from the permit. Comments from our
regional staff or other information may result in maintaining these parameters or adding other
parameters if it is apparent that your activities in some way have the potential to release them
through stormwater runoff.
Stormwater benchmarks remain in the permit as before. Keep in mind that benchmarks are not
permit limits, 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. The draft permit has modified the tiered response process for benchmark
exceedances consistent with other permits in our program. Please become familiar with the tiered
process as proper response under the tiers may be enforceable items under your permit.

Response to the tiered process may include review of onsite conditions, installation of BMPs or
requirements for more frequent monitoring.
4. Vehicle maintenance (Tables 4 & 5) monitoring parameters have been revised. Non -Polar Oil &
Grease [EPA Method 1664 (SGT-HEM)] replaces Oil & Grease/TPH. The benchmark for Non -polar
Oil & Grease using this method is 15 mg/L. This requirement appears in all individual stormwater
permits; however, it only applies to facilities that perform onsite vehicle maintenance activities. If
the facility begins vehicle maintenance during the permit cycle, the requirements shall apply. Also,
pH monitoring is no longer required for discharges only associated with vehicle maintenance
activities.
The vehicle maintenance language in the permit has also been modified to clarify that these
activities include not just vehicles, but also other similar equipment maintenance activities that
may be exposed to stormwater. This has always been the Division's implementation of this
requirement, but hopefully the adjusted language is a little clearer about this process.
S. Language has been added under Part lI Section D to address potential responses to qualitative
monitoring issues.
6. A new section on Special Conditions has been added in Part 11, Section E to comply with federal
regulations requiring electronic submittal of discharge monitoring reports. Our electronic
submittal process is not available for use at this time, but we will continue to provide feedback on
when this process will be available.
7. Civil and administrative penalty amounts have been updated to reflect current federal law in
Part III, Section A, 2(b) and (g).
8. The definition of Bulk Storage of Liquid Materials was revised in Part IV Definitions to omit the
language "located in close proximity to each other' as it applies to multiple above ground storage
containers having a combined storage of 1,320 gallons.
9. To address workload issues in the Stormwater Program we are working to have similar numbers
of individual permits for renewal over each of the next five years. In order to accomplish this some
of our permit renewals will be issued for time periods shorter than the usual five year cycle. Your
permit renewal is proposed to expire in 2021.
Please review the draft permit and submit any comments to me no later than 30 days following your
receipt of the draft. Comments maybe emai led tome at bradle .betinett ncdenr. ov or mailed to my
attention at NC DEMLR, Stormwater Permitting Program, 1612 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-
1612. With this notification the Division will solicit comment on this draft by publishing a notice in a local
newspaper. Following the 30 day public comment period, the Division will review comments and take
appropriate action prior to issuance of the final permit
If you have any questions, please email me or call me at [phone].

PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR
PERMITTED DISCHARGES
SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The permittee shall develop and implement a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). The SPPP shall be maintained on site unless exempted from this requirement by
the Division. The SPPP is public information in accordance with Part ill, Standard
Conditions, Section E, paragraph 3 of this permit. The SPPP shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
1. Site Overview. The Site Overview shall provide description of the physical facility
and the potential pollutant sources that may be'expected to contribute to
contamination of stormwater discharges. The`Site Overview shall contain the following:
(a) 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 waters to which the stormwater outfalls
discharge, 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 points of stormwater discharge associated with industrial
activity. The general location map (or alternatively the site map) shall identify
whether any receiving waters are impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired
waters) or if the site is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been
established, and what the parameters of concern are.
(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 that
could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall.
(c) A site map drawn at a scale sufficient to clearly depict: 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 and
finished grade; all drainage features and structures; drainage area boundaries and
total contributing area for each outfall; direction of flow in each drainage area;
industrial activities occurring in each drainage area; buildings; stormwater Best
Management Practices (BMPs); and impervious surfaces. The site map must
indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious, and the site map
must include a graphic scale indication and north arrow.
(d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants during the previous three (3) years
and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts.
Page - 3

Permit No. NC5000452 DRAFT
(e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of
non-stormwater discharges. The permittee shall re -certify annually 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 B, Paragraph 3.
2. Stormwater Management Strategy. The Stormwater Management Strategy shall
contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which
control or minimize the stormwater exposure of significant materials, including
structural and nonstructural measures. The Stormwater Management Strategy, 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 rainfall and run-on flows. 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, this review shall document the -feasibility of diverting the Stormwater
run-on away from areas of potential' contamination.
(b) Secondary Containinent;Requir'ements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313
of Title III of the Superfun&Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water
priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substancesin 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 maintained. If the secondary containment devices are 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). Any stormwater 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 (5) years. For facilities subject to a federal oil Spill
Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC), any portion of the SPCC Plan
fully compliant with the requirements of this permit may be used to demonstrate
compliance with this permit. The Division may allow exceptions to secondary
containment requirements for mobile refuelers, as with the exemption provided by
amendments to federal SPCC regulations, as long as appropriate spill containment
and/or diversionary structures or equipment is used to prevent discharge to surface
waters. Exceptions do not apply to refuelers or other mobile tankage used primarily
as bulk liquid material storage in a fixed location in place of stationary containers.
(c) BMP Summary. A listing of site structural and non-structural Best Management
Practices (BMPs) shall be provided. The installation and implementation of BMPs
Page-4

Permit No. NCS000452 DRAFT
shall be based on the assessment of the potential for sources to contribute
significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and on 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 Procedures, The Spill Prevention and Response
Procedures (SPRP) shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based
on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel 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 person shall be on -site at all times duringiacility operations that have
increased potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of
materials associated with the facility operations./The SPRP-must be site stormwater
specific. Therefore, an oil Spill Prevention`Cbrifrol arid, Counterm easure plan (SPCC)
may be a component of the SPRP, but may�riot^b`e-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. `w
)r
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good, Housekeeping Program. A preventative
maintenance and good,liousekeeping.program shall be developed and implemented.
The program shall address all stormwater control systems (if applicable), stormwater
discharge outfalls, all on, -,site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial
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 stormwater pollution where not already addressed under
another element of the SPPP. 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
housekeeping shall be recorded and maintained in the SPPP.
5. Facility Inspections. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur
as part of the Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program at a
minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year (January to
June), and once during the second half (July to December), with at least 60 days
separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently than semi-annually).
These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater
discharge characteristic monitoring at the outfulls required in Part I1 B, C, and D of this
permit.
6. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill
response and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and. for any of the facility's
operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. The facility
Page - 5

Permit No. NCS000452 DRAFT
personnel responsible for implementing the training shall be identified, and their
annual training shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
7. Responsible Party. The SPPP shall identify a specific position or positions responsible
for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision of the SPPP.
Responsibilities for all components of the SPPP shall be documented and position
assignments provided.
8. SPPP Amendment and Annual Update. The permittee shall amend the SPPP
whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, site drainage,
maintenance, or configuration of the physical features which may have a significant
effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants.to surface waters. All aspects of
the SPPP shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update
shall include:
(a) an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three
(3) years, or the notation that no spills have occurred (element of the Site
Overview);
(b) a written re-certification,that.the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for
the presence of non-stormwater discharges (element of the Site Overview);
(c) a documented"re-evaluation.of the effectiveness of the on -site stormwater
BMPs (BMP Summary;element of the Stormwater Management Strategy).
(d) a review and compai-ison1bf sample analytical data to benchmark values (if

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 measureable storm event at each
stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). Only SDOs discharging stormwater associated with
industrial activity must be sampled (See Definitions).
A measurable storm event is a storm event that results in an actual discharge from the
permitted site outfall. The previous measurable storm event must have been at least 72 hours
prior. The 72-hour storm interval does not apply if the permittee is able to document that a
shorter interval is representative for local storm events during the sampling period, and the
permittee obtains approval from the local DEMLR Regional Engineer. See Definitions.
The permittee shall compare monitoring results"to the benchmark values in Table 1.
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. See below`the descriptions of Tier One, Tier Two, and
Tier Three response actions below. In the event that the Division releases the permittee from
continued monthly monitoring and reporting under` Tier Two or Tier Three, the Division's
release letter may remain in effect thiough subsequent reissuance of this permit, unless the
release letter provides for other c;nd`ition orfduration.
The benchmark values in Table bre. anot permit limits but should be used as guidelines for
implementation of the permittee's SPPP. An exceedance of a stormwater benchmark value
is not a permit violation; however, failure to respond to the exceedance as outlined in this
permit is a violation of �permitxonditions.
Please note that the parameters in the last two rows in Table 1 (no -polar oil and grease and
new motor oil usage) are only required for outfalls that discharge runoff from vehicle or
equipment maintenance areas in which more than 55 gallons of new motor oil and/or
hydraulic oil per month is used when averaged over the calendar year

1 Measurement Frequency: Twice per year (unless other provisions of this permit prompt monthly
sampling) during a measureable storm event, until either another permit is issued for this facility or until
this permit is revoked or rescinded. If the facility is monitoring monthly because of Tier Two or Three
response actions under the previous permit, the facility shall continue a monthly monitoring and
reporting schedule in Tier Two or Tier Three status until relieved by the provisions of this permit or
the Division.
2 Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge. When physical separation between
outfalls prevents collecting all samples within the first 30 minutes, sampling shall begin within the first 30
minutes, and shall continue until completed.
3 Sample Location: Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless
representative outfall status (ROS) has been granted. A copy of the Division's letter granting ROS shall be
kept on site.
4 For each sampled measureable storm event, the total precipitati6n must be recorded. An on -site rain gauge
is required. Where isolated sites are unmanned for extended periods of time, a local rain gauge reading
may be substituted for an on -site reading.
5 This parameter is only required for outfalls that disch�rge runoff fromvehicle / equipment maintenance
areas in which more than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month is used when averaged over the
calendar year.
The permittee shall complete the analyticatsa'tnplings in accordance with the schedule
specified below in Table 2, unless adverselweather conditions prevent sample collection
(see Adverse Weather in Definitions). Sampling is not required outside of the facility's
x
normal operating hours. Amin , im'uinof 60 days must separate Period 1 and Period 2
sample dates, unless montliiy monitoring has been instituted under a "Tier Two"
response, Inability to sample I ecause of adverse weather conditions must be documented
in the SPPP and recorded on the DMR. The permittee must report the results from each
sample taken within the gmonitoring period (see Part Ili, Section E). However, for purposes
of benchmark comparison nd Tiered response actions, the permittee shall use the
analytical results from the first sample with valid results within the monitoring period.

Footnotes:
1 Maintain semi-annual monitoring until either another permit is issued for this facility or until this
permit is revoked or rescinded. The permittee must submit an application for renewal of coverage
before the submittal deadline (180 days before expiration) to be considered for renewed coverage
under the permit. The permittee must continue analytical monitoring throughout the permit
renewal process, even if a renewal permit is not issued until after expiration of this permit.
2 If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report
indicating "No Flow' or "No Discharge" within 30 days of the end of the sampling period.
3 Monitoring periods remain consistent through the permit term and through the renewal process.
Failure to monitor semi-annually per permit terms may result in the Division requiring
monthly monitoring for all parameters for a specified time period. "No discharge" from an
outfall during a monitoring period does not constitute failure to monitor, as long as it is
properly recorded and reported.

Permit No. NCS000452 DRAFT
Tier One
If: The first valid sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any
parameter at any outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving sampling
results.
2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedance.
3. Identify potential, and select the specific feasible: source controls, operational controls, or physical
improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, and/or to bring concentrations
within the benchmark range.
4. Implement the selected feasible actions within two months of the inspection.
S. Record each instance of a Tier One response in the SPPP. Include the date and value of the benchmark
exceedence, the inspection date, the personnel conducting -the inspection, the selected actions, and the
date the selected actions were implemented. '
6. Note: Benchmark exceedances for a different arameter separately trigger a tiered response.
Tier Two
If: The first valid sampling results from two consecutive monitoring periods (omitting periods with no
discharge) are above the benchmark values, or ou`tside`of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at
a specific discharge outfall;
Then: The permittee shall:
1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One,
2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring and reporting for all parameters. The permittee shall conduct
monthly monitoring at ever�y.outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two
consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative) monitoring shall continue until three
consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within benchmark range.
3. If no discharge occurs'during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly
monitoring report indicating�No Flow" to comply with reporting requirements.
4. Alternatively, in lieu of steps 2 and 3, the permittee may, after two consecutive exceedances, exercise the
option of contacting the DEMLR Regional Engineer as provided below in Tier Three. The Regional
Engineer may direct the response actions on the part of the permittee as provided in Tier Three,
including reduced or additional sampling parameters or frequency.
S. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the SPPP.
6. Continue Tier Two response obligations throughout the permit renewal process.
If: The valid sampling results required for the permit monitoring periods exceed the benchmark value, or
are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on four occasions, the
permittee shall notify the DEMLR Regional Engineer in writing within 30 days of receipt of the fourth
analytical results;
Then: The Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring and reporting frequency for
some or all of the parameters herein;
• require sampling of additional or substitute parameters;
• require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls;
• require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures;
• require the permittee to perform upstream and downstream monitoring to characterize impacts on
receiving waters; or
• require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion;
• require the permittee to continue Tier Three obligations through the permit renewal process.

This site discharges to waters experiencing potential problems with Copper. If further
actions, including the development of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL), are required
for this segment of Deep River, The Division will consider your monitoring results in
determining whether additional BMPs are needed to control the pollutant of concern to the
maximum extent practicable.
If additional BMPs are needed to achieve the required level of control, the permittee will be
required to (1) develop a strategy for implementing appropriate BMPs, and (2) submit a
timetable for incorporation of those BMPs into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
SECTION C: QUALITATIVE MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
The purpose of qualitative monitoring is to evalu to the effectiveness of the Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) and identify'inew`potential sources of stormwater
pollution. Qualitative monitoring of stormwater•outfalls must be performed during a
measurable storm event. t
Qualitative monitoring requires a visual` inspection of each stormwater outfall regardless of
representative outfall status. Qualita'tive,m_onitoring shall be performed semi-annually
during required analytical,riionitdring events(unless the permittee is required to perform
further qualitative monitoring per the`Qualitative Monitoring Response, below). Inability
to monitor because of adverse weather conditions must be documented in the SPPP and
recorded on the Qualitative Monitoring Report form (see Adverse Weather in Definitions).
Only SDOs discharging:stormwater associated with industrial activity must be monitored
(See Definitions).
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 SPPP.

1 Monitoring Frequency: Twice per year during a measureable storm event unless other provisions of this
permit prompt monthly monitoring. See Table 2 for schedule of monitoring periods. The permittee must
continue qualitative monitoring throughout the permit renewal process until a new permit is issued.
2 Monitoring Location: Qualitative monitoring shall be performed at each stormwater discharge outfall
(SDO) regardless of representative outfall status.
A minimum of 60 days must separate monitoring dates, unless additional sampling has
been instituted as part of other analytical monitoring requirements in this permit.
If the permittee's qualitative monitoring indicates that existing stormwater BMPs are
ineffective, or that significant stormwater contaminations present, the permittee shall
investigate potential causes, evaluate the feasibility of corrective actions, and implement
those corrective actions within 60 days, per the Qualitative. Qualitative. Monitoring Response, below.
A written record of the permittee's investigation; evaluation and response actions shall be
kept in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan.
Qualitative Monitoring Response
Qualitative monitoring is for the purposes of evaluating SPPP effectiveness, identifying new potential
sources of stormwater pollution,rand prompting the permittee's response to pollution. If the
permittee repeatedly fails fo respond effectively to correct problems identified by qualitative
monitoring, or if the discliarge�ca6ses`or contributes to a water quality standard violation, the
Division may but is not limited to:
• require that the-permittee revise, increase, or decrease the monitoring frequency for some
or all parameters (analytical or qualitative)
• require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls;
• require the permittee to implement other stormwater control measures;
• require the permittee to perform upstream and downstream monitoring to characterize
impacts on receiving waters; or
require the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion.

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES
There have been no significant changes to our process or chemicals.
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
The purpose of the SWPPP is to identify potential sources of pollution or contamination that originate at
this facility, and to select and implement actions which prevent or minimize the release of pollutants
into the storm water. The storm water management controls included in the SWPPP focus on providing
adequate control of pollutant discharges with practical approaches that utilize readily available
techniques, expertise, material and equipment.
The SWPPP is intended to be a flexible, active operations plan to allow incorporation of changes and
management practices. As the plan is implemented and methods to improve the plan are found, or as
regulations change, revisions to the plan must be made. Revisions to the plan must be approved by
management and recorded in all copies of the plan in order to meet the requirements of the storm
water permit.
This is a wood preservation facility. Untreated lumber is brought on site for treatment using a copper
based (micronized) amine formula. All chemicals used in the treatment process are kept inside
containment areas. Waters accumulated inside these containment areas are used back in the process.
All freshly treated lumber is kept under cover, on a RCRA Subpart W drip pad until drippage has ceased.
There are several storage sheds where we store as much of the treated lumber as possible. Any
remaining lumber is kept on the yard until sold.
Forklifts and other vehicles are regularly inspected and maintained by an outside contractor. All
maintenance work is done under cover, if possible. Now work is performed outdoors during a rain
event. Any oil or chemicals used at the maintenance department are kept inside the maintenance
building or under cover. All bulk oil tanks have secondary containment along with drip pans under the
nozzles. Any water accumulated within this containment, if contaminated with oil, is shipped for
recycling or the oil removed prior to releasing.
At this time, based upon a review of our current procedures for reducing or eliminating exposure of
materials to storm water, we have determined that it is not economically feasible to modify our
program. We have our maintenance area inside a building, all oil tanks under cover and in secondary
containment, all chemicals in secondary containment or under cover and numerous sheds to store
treated lumber in. The lumber stored outdoors is dry, stacked to minimize exposure and inventory
controlled to reduce potential exposure to a rain event. Housekeeping procedures are in place to
regularly remove debris in the yard and inspect around our maintenance and treating plant for chemical
contamination.
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES -- MEASURES AND CONTROLS
The results of a site assessment indicate that controls are either in place or need to be added to
minimize contaminant releases to storm water runoff. Housekeeping is one area that can be readily
controlled to limit the discharge of wood debris and minimize the generation of dust.

Best Management Practices (BMPs) as well as other controls are used to reduce potential contaminant
releases. Some of our controls are as simple as ensuring that we maintain vegetation, such as grass on
slopes to prevent soil erosion and keeping outfall areas clean and free of debris.
All chemical bulk storage tanks are within secondary containment. None of our secondary containment
structures have any type of drainage system. Only personnel placing a pump into the diesel and
gasoline containment area can remove liquid. This method prevents any release of oil from our
containment system due to rain. Our chemical storage containment areas that are not located inside a
building have automatic pumps that will pick up liquid and place it into a bulk storage tank located
within a containment area. This liquid is then used in our treating processes.
Most hose connections at the tanks for bulk loading or unloading are inside the bulk storage
containment area. Any tank or hose connections outside the contained area have buckets underneath
to catch drips and minor leaks. A qualified employee with access to the proper safety equipment
approves the hook up to our tank prior to unloading and monitors the loading and unloading process.
All non -bulk containers, such as drums, are stored either indoors or within a contained area.
Finished lumber products are stored under sheds or in the yard until shipment. The trucks are loaded
over asphalt areas. Prior to storing any treated lumber outdoors, verification that there is no drippage
has been documented (see drip pad logs).
The drip pad is under roof and bermed/sloped to prevent any release. Any liquid generated from
drippage or a rain event flows to a sump and then is automatically picked up and place into an effluent
tank. Visual, as well as some documented Inspections are regularly performed on the drip pad and
maintenance, such as sealing or cracks and coating replacement, is performed as needed.
All cutting of lumber on site is performed under roof. The sawdust and particles are then loaded into a
drum or onto the dump truck. The truck is kept under roof unless loading.
Various types of equipment associated with this wood preserving facility include but are not limited to
pressure retorts, mechanical pumps, fueling trucks, maintenance equipment, freight transfer vehicles,
construction equipment and fork lifts.
Trucks, trailers, and forklifts are cleaned in an enclosed, roofed area designed for this purpose. The
water is reclaimed through an oil water separator.
It is recognized that maintenance of vehicles can be a significant source of storm water pollutants.
Materials associated with vehicle maintenance include waste oil, solvents and other degreasers, brake
fluid, anti -freeze, battery acids, radiator flush, and sludge. The following vehicle maintenance practices
are utilized:
Maintenance is completed in an enclosed area protected from runoff and precipitation
whenever possible. If maintenance has to be performed outside of the enclosed area, all
possible means are used to prevent spillage and approved cleaning methods (oil dry, etc)
are used if any spillage occurs.
All used products are properly stored until they are sent for recycling or disposal.
Batteries, used tired, and used solvents are collected and recycled through the appropriate
vendors (Typically batteries are recycled immediately, so there is minimal to no storage).

A feasibility review to determine if there is a way to modify or change our operating procedures or
install controls to further reduce chemical exposure indicates the following:
o Bulk Chemical containment (Including Diesel) — All bulk chemicals are currently stored in
secondary containment systems and some are under roof. We do not have any secondary
containment systems that can release without manual pumping.
o Non -bulk chemical containment — All non -bulk chemicals are currently stored in secondary
containment areas or under roof.
o Particulate containment — Generation of sawdust is currently performed under roof in the saw
area. There is a general cleanup performed after the cutting is complete.
o Diesel/Gasoline storage —The diesel/gasoline tanks used to fuel the lifts and trucks are located
within a secondary containment system that cannot release without manual pumping. Filling
the tank and fueling procedures are performed just outside the containment area, but under
roof. Maintenance personnel or supervisors are the only employees that fuel the lifts.
o Treated wood storage —Treated lumber is stored in sheds or outdoors. Prior to placing the
treated lumber outdoors, the material is documented that all drippage has ceased. This
procedure should ensure that there is minimal release of chemicals during a rain event from the
treated lumber. The lumber is also not placed directly on the ground, but stored 2-6" above to
prevent contact.
o Chemical unloading — Chemical unloading is performed on paved areas. Most hose connections
at the tanks for bulk loading or unloading are inside the bulk storage containment area. Any
tank or hose connections outside the contained area have buckets underneath to catch drips
and minor leaks. A qualified employee with access to the proper safety equipment approves the
hook up to our tank prior to unloading and monitors the loading and unloading process. In the
future, as monies permit, we will review the installation of containment areas for the bulk
chemical trucks to be located during unloading.
To ensure that the BMPs and other controls are in use and working, employees are taught about
controls in use and periodic inspections are performed.
The measures currently in use or to be implemented at our facility to control contaminant releases are
found under section 4.a.

RE: Structural Wood Preserving Company; NCS000452
Dear Bradley Bennett:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information
about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database, indicates that there are
no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas
within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural
heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have
been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists.
In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may
update our records.
The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been
documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that
these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists. Tables of
natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also
included in this report.
If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of the project
area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for guidance. Contact
information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:
baps : Umm,fws. aovloff ices/D irecto ry/ListOffices. cfm?statecode=37.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project
review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions.
Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the
NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP
data may not be redistributed without permission.
The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature
Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water Management Trust Fund easement, or Federally -listed
species are documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please
contact Rodney A. Butler at rodney.butler ncdcr.gov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

trash). Truck kept under cover unless loading.
Loading/Unloading — There are several locations where loading/unloading are performed. In the yard untreated lumber is unloaded and trailers are then
reloaded with treated lumber. These areas have minimal potential for pollution since the lumber is packaged and strapped for loading. Bulk diesel, while
unloading, is on gravel. The hose connection to the tank is inside the diesel containment area. Bulk wood preservative is unloaded on pavement, with the
tank connection inside the containment area. No tank truck is allowed to hook up without management approval and a tank level check. The driver must
remain at the truck during unloading.
Operations — At treatment location, the lumber is treated while under roof. Once the lumber is removed from the cylinder, it is placed on a drip pad, which
is contained and the concrete sealed, until drippage has ceased. Lumber may then be stored under shed or in the yard. Any water from a rain event that is
captured on the drip pad is picked up and reused in that operation.
Outdoor Process — The only process performed outdoors is the loading/unloading/movement of treated and untreated lumber.
Outdoor Storage — Some treated lumber is stored outdoors until used or sold.
Particulate Generating — Cutting of lumber is performed under roof. The sawdust is cleaned up regularly and disposed of as non -hazardous industrial
waste.
Waste Disposal —
• Treating Plant — Waste generated is drummed, stored under roof and disposed of as a hazardous waste. All liquid is reused in the process
• Maint. Shop — Used oil generated is stored in 55 gallon drums until recycled. The drums are kept indoors.
• Yard Debris — Any broken pieces of lumber or general trash found in the yard is placed into the dump truck. This truck takes the trash to the local
landfill for disposal. The truck is kept under cover unless they are adding material to it,
• Gasoline/Diesel Storage — The gasoline tank is a double walled tank and the small diesel tanks are under roof to prevent rain exposure. If there is
any water in the containment area, it cannot be released without manual pumping of the containment.
• Large Diesel Tanks — Any water accumulated in the large diesel tanks containment area is inspected prior to release.

3.b Record Of Significant LeakslSpills
• If a significant leak/spill occurs, (such as a release that equals or exceeds a reportable quantity or if it is a
potentially harmful quantity, even though it is below a reportable quantity), then the SWPPP must be
modified within 14 calendar days. The modification will include a description of the release and the
circumstances leading up to the release. In addition we will review and identify any measures that may
be incorporated to prevent a reoccurrence. Any modifications will be added to the SWPPP.

is 4. MEASURES AND CONTROLS
The results of a site assessment indicate that controls are either in place or need to be added to minimize
contaminant releases to storm water run off. Housekeeping is one area that can be readily controlled to
limit the discharge of wood debris and minimize the generation of dust.
Best Management Practices (BMPs) as well as other controls are used to reduce potential contaminant
releases. Some of our controls are as simple as ensuring that we maintain vegetation, such as grass on
slopes to prevent soil erosion and keeping outfall areas clean and free of debris.
All chemical bulk storage tanks are within secondary containment. None of our secondary containment
structures have any type of drainage system. Only personnel placing a pump into the diesel and gasoline
containment area can remove liquid. This method prevents any release of oil from our containment
system due to rain. Our chemical storage containment areas that are not located inside a building have
automatic pumps that will pick up liquid and place it into a bulk storage tank located within a containment
area. This liquid is then used in our treating processes.
Most hose connections at the tanks for bulk loading or unloading are inside the bulk storage containment
area. Any tank or hose connections outside the contained area have buckets underneath to catch drips
and minor leaks. A qualified employee with access to the proper safety equipment approves the hook up
to our tank prior to unloading and monitors the loading and unloading process.
All non -bulk containers, such as drums, are stored either indoors or within a contained area.
Finished lumber products are stored under sheds or in the yard until shipment. The trucks are loaded
over asphalt areas. Prior to storing any treated lumber outdoors, verification that there is no drippage has
Obeen documented (see drip pad logs).
The drip pad is under roof and bermedlsloped to prevent any release. Any liquid generated from
drippage or a rain event flows to a sump and then is automatically picked up and place into an effluent
SWPPP 2009 Page 8 of 19

tank. Visual, as well as some documented Inspections are regularly performed on the drip pad and
maintenance, such as sealing or cracks and coating replacement, is performed as needed.
40 All cutting of lumber on site is performed under roof. The sawdust and particles are then loaded into a
drum or onto the dump truck. The truck is kept under roof unless loading.
Various types of equipment associated with this wood preserving facility include but are not limited to
pressure retorts, mechanical pumps, fueling trucks, maintenance equipment, freight transfer vehicles,
construction equipment and fork lifts.
Trucks, trailers, and forklifts are cleaned in an enclosed, roofed area designed for this purpose. The
water is reclaimed through an oil water separator.
It is recognized that maintenance of vehicles can be a significant source of storm water pollutants.
Materials associated with vehicle maintenance include waste oil, solvents and other degreasers, brake
fluid, anti freeze, battery acids, radiator flush, and sludge. The following vehicle maintenance practices
are utilized:
Maintenance is completed in an enclosed area protected from runoff and precipitation
whenever possible. If maintenance has to be performed outside of the enclosed area, all
possible means are used to prevent spillage and approved cleaning methods (oil dry, etc) are
used if any spillage occurs.
All used products are properly stored until they are sent for recycling or disposal.
Batteries, used tired, and used solvents are collected and recycled through the appropriate
vendors (Typically batteries are recycled immediately, so there is minimal to no storage).
A feasibility review to determine if there is a way to modify or change our operating procedures or install
controls to further reduce chemical exposure indicates the following:
o Bulk Chemical containment (Including Diesel) — All bulk chemicals are currently stored in
secondary containment systems and some are under roof. We do not have any secondary
containment systems that can release without manual pumping.
o Non -bulk chemical containment — All non -bulk chemicals are currently stored in secondary
containment areas or under roof.
o Particulate containment — Generation of sawdust is currently performed under roof in the reman
area. There is a general cleanup daily.
o Diesel/Gasoline storage — The diesel/gasoline tanks used to fuel the lifts and trucks are located
within a secondary containment system that cannot release without manual pumping. Filling the
tank and fueling procedures are performed just outside the containment area, but under roof.
Maintenance personnel or supervisors are the only employees that fuel the lifts.
o Treated wood storage — Treated lumber is stored in sheds or outdoors. Prior to placing the
treated lumber outdoors, the material is documented that all drippage has ceased. This
procedure should ensure that there is minimal release of chemicals during a rain event from the
treated lumber. The lumber is also not placed directly on the ground, but stored 2-6" above to
prevent contact.
o Chemical unloading — Chemical unloading is performed on paved areas. Most hose connections
at the tanks for bulk loading or unloading are inside the bulk storage containment area. Any tank
or hose connections outside the contained area have buckets underneath to catch drips and
minor leaks. A qualified employee with access to the proper safety equipment approves the hook
up to our tank prior to unloading and monitors the loading and unloading process. In the future,
as monies permit, we will review the installation of containment areas for the bulk chemical trucks
to be located during unloading.

4.b Spill Prevention and Response Procedures
Spill prevention is key to preventing releases. Process controls are in place to minimize the potential for
a release and employees are trained on these process controls. All chemical storage tanks are located
inside containment areas. The containment areas cannot release any minor spills or drips unless liquid is
manually pumped out.
Facility personnel responsible for spill prevention and response are: Jerry Pugh, Tim Pugh
A contingency plan is posted in the main office and at the treating plant for use in the event of a release.
This storm water plan serves as the prevention portion of our SPRP.
All personnel involved with the handling of hazardous chemicals or waste is trained under 40 CFR 265.16
and 29 CFR 1910.1200. Any large releases will be handled by an outside firm.
• 4.0 Preventive Maintenance
0
This facility has a maintenance program. This program includes regular maintenance on all vehicles used
on site. Employees have been trained to notify the maintenance department or their supervisor if any
vehicles have a leak that needs repair. Daily visual inspections on all tanks and equipment that store
hazardous chemicals is performed by our operators to ensure prompt repairs for any leaks that may come
in contact with storm water run off.
All information pertaining to preventive maintenance for this facility are kept with the maintenance
supervisor.

Impairment: Deep River 17-(10.5)el is on the 2006 303(d) for turbudity. Basinwide Plan shows stressors for Deep
River 17-(10.5)d that include Chlorophyll a, Turbidity, Habitat Degradation and Fecal Colifrom Bacteria. 2005
recommendations for Deep River (I7-(10.5)el and 17-(10.5)d) include DWQ and the UCFRBA will continue to
monitor these segments of the Deep River. The NPDES compliance process will be used to address the significant
permit violations noted above. Segment 17-(10.5e1) will be added to the 303(d) list of impaired waters. TMDLs will
be developed for identified stressors within 8-13 years of listing.
4. Threatened and Endangered: There is one species that is federally protected within a 2 mile radius of the site.
The species is the Cape Fear Shiner, Notropis mekistocholas which is classified as endangered. There are some
species that are state protected and these are included in the permit file.
5. Location: Receiving water is classified as a C stream.
6. Industrial Changes Since Previous Permit: The only significant change in industrial activities was in 2003.
Chromated copper arsenate (CCA) wood preservative was replaced with a non -arsenical copper amine formula
(Copper Azole).
T Analytical Monitoring Notes: No analytical monitoring was required in the last permit.
The 2008 EPA Multi -Sector general permit for Sector A recommends monitoring for Total Arsenic and Total
Copper for SIC 2491, Wood Preserving. Copper was added to monitoring since the process being used, MCQ,
contains copper. Arsenic is not in any current processes and not added to the monitoring. TSS was added as a
potential pollutant.
BOD5 and COD have been added to other timber treated sites in our program because high levels of these
pollutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. Therefore, COD and BOD5
have been added to the renewal permit.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Visual monitoring was done seven times for two different outfalls from 9/23/03
to 7/25/06. The monitoring shows no signs of pollutants and is all the same except for the last entry where the
water color is a light tan.
Page 4.of 7

NCS000452
Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Adding parameters Cu, TSS, COD, and BOD5.
2. PI -I 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.
T 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-stonmwater 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 11 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 11 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.

Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Inspection
Structural Wood Preserving
Permit No. NCS000452
Randolph County
Dear Mr. Pugh:
On February 3, 2009, Mike Mickey of this office met with you to perform a NPDES Stormwater
Permit Inspection at Structural Wood Preserving located on Hwy 22. The inspection found the facility to
be in complete compliance with the stormwater permit. This inspection evaluated the five (5) areas
designated on the attached inspection form. Observations from each area are addressed below:.
1. Permit
Structural Wood Preserving holds NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCS000452 for the discharge of'
stormwater from the facility. The permit expired on August 31, 2008. A renewal application was
received in our Raleigh office on February 16, 2007. This inspection was conducted in response to the
your renewal. request. Comments from this office have been sent to our Central Office recommending
that the permit renewed. Hopefully, they can accomplish that in the near future.
2. Records/Reports
Part II, Section A of the permit requires the development of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). A copy of the SPPP was reviewed during the inspection. The plan was found to be thorough,
complete and up to date.
3. Facility Site Review
A tour of the property found the site to be clean and well managed. Observations did not reveal any
concerns. Secondary containment was provided for all fuel tanks as well as the preservative tanks.
4. Effluent/Receiving Waters
Stormwater from the site is monitored at two outfalls. The stormwater eventually reaches an unnamed
tributary to Deep River, Class "C" Waters in the Cape Fear River Basin.

5. Monitoring Program
Part II, Section B of the permit requires that qualitative (visual) monitoring be performed and documented
semi-annually. The file review also showed that this monitoring was performed as required. The facility
uses their own form titled "Semiannual Facility Site. Compliance Inspection Form". Please note that the
qualitative records do not need to be submitted to the Division, however, they must be kept on file at the
facility for a period of five years.
The analytical monitoring specified in Part II, Section C of the permit is not required since Structural
Wood Preserving uses less than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month when averaged over the calendar
year. Records indicated that motor oil usage was generally <5 gallons per month.
Your efforts to comply with the stormwater permit are appreciated. If you have any questions
concerning this letter, please contact Mike Mickey or me at [phone].

SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN
The Permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein alter 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 general permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum,
the following items:
Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the
potential pollutant sources which may be expected to"c `tribute to contamination of
stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the following:
(a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted
equivalent ma 's � � q p), showing the facility-s location in relation to transportation
routes and surface waters, the nam6 of the receiving water(s) to which the
stormwater outfall(s) discharge'o�ift�hedischarge 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 in ap (or alternatively the site map) shall identify whether each
receiving water,a,impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired waters) or is
located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been established, and what the
paranzeter(s) ofconcern are.
North Carolina's 303(d) List can be found here:
http://h2o.cnl,.state.c.us/tmdl/General_303d.htm#Downloads

(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 l3MPs, 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

Pennit No. NCS000452
(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
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,econoniic feasibility of changing
the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce
exposure of materials and processes to,stoeniwater: 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 stoHnwater.management plan shall document the
feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential
contamination. /
(b) Secondary Contai�nn en\Re\quirements and Records. Secondary containment is
required for: bulk storage ofliquid materials; 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 al ,such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary
containment areas shall be maintained. 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 closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater 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 the material stored within the containment area. 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 stormwater 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.

Pemiit No. NCS000452
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
person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to
contaminate storrn water runoff through spills or exposure 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.
h
4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping iProgram. A preventative
maintenance and good housekeeping program'Aa��be developed.
The program shall list
all stormwater control systems, stormwater discharge outfalls, all on -site and adjacent
surface waters and wetlands, industrial 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,4well as facility equipment, facility areas, and
facility systems that present a potential for stormwater exposure or stormwater 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 housekeeping shall be recorded in writing and maintained
in the SPPP.
5. Employee Training. Training programs shall be developed and training provided at a
minimum on an annual basis for facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response
and cleanup, preventative maintenance activities, and for 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, and their annual training
shall be documented by the signature of each employee trained.
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.
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

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. X

Central Office Review Summary:
1. Owner's Other Permits: None
2. General Observations: Below is the product list for the site from
http://www.Coxwood.com/about_coxwood_]ocations_swp.slitm1.
Products:
• Wet Lumber
• Boards
• Dimensional Lumber
• Outdoor Wood-KDAT (Kiln dried after treatment)
• Decking (Durapine Decking, Durapine Classic)
• Columns (Square timber and laminated columns)
• Round Posts
• Square Posts, Timbers
• Fencing
• Outdoor Furniture
• Plywood
• Porch Flooring
• Treating and drying services
• All Cox Industries products by special order
impairment: Deep River 17-(10.5)e 1 is on the 2006 303(d) for turbidity. Basinwide Plan shows stressors for Deep
River 17-(10.5)d that include Chlorophyll a, Turbidity, Habitat Degradation and Fecal Colifrom Bacteria. 2005
recommendations for Deep River (17-(10.5)et and 17-(10.5)d) include DWQ and the UCFRBA will continue to
monitor these segments of the Deep River. The NPDES compliance process will be used to address the significant
permit violations noted above. Segment 17-(10.5eI) will be added to the 303(d) list of impaired waters. TMDLs
will be developed for identified stressors within 8-13 years of listing.
4. Threatened and Endan yeg_red: There is one species that is federally protected within a 2 mile radius of the site.
The species is the Cape Fear Shiner, Notropis rnekistocholas which is classified as endangered. There are some
species that are state protected and these are included in the permit file.
5. Location: Receiving water is classified as a C strearn.
6. Industrial Changes Sincd Previous Permit: The only significant change in industrial activities was in 2003.
Chromated copper arsenate (CCA) wood preservative was replaced with a non -arsenical copper amine formula
(Copper Azole).
7. Analytical Monitoring Notes: No analytical monitoring was required in the last permit.
The 2008 EPA Multi -Sector general permit for Sector A recommends monitoring for Total Arsenic and Total
Copper for SIC 2491, Wood Preserving. Copper was added to monitoring since the process being used, MCQ,
contains copper. Arsenic is not in any current processes and not added to the monitoring. TSS was added as a
potential pollutant.
BOD5 and COD have been added to other timber treated sites in our program because high levels of these
pollutants in surface waters were found along the properties of timber facilities. Therefore, COD and BOD5
have been added to the renewal permit.
8. Qualitative Monitoring Notes: Visual monitoring was done seven times for two different outfalls from 9/23/03
to 7/25/06. The monitoring shows no signs of pollutants and is all the same except for the last entry where the
water color is a light tan.
Page 4 of 7

NCS000452
Revised Permit Recommendations: Analytical Monitoring:
1. Adding parameters Cu, TSS, COD, and BOD5.
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 11
Section B. The pennittee 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 o1,60 days apart,
as specified in Table 2.
4. Benchmarks for analytical monitoring have been added to this draft pen -nit. 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 teen 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:
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.
Additional requirements for the Stormwater Management Plan have been specified in Part 11 Section A. More
details regarding secondary containment are provided.
Additional requirements for the Stonmvater Pollution Prevention Plan have been specified in Part I I 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-stonnwater discharges.
The facility must now implement a semi-annual Facility Inspection Program of the site's stormwater
management controls as specified in Part lI Section A.
Information regarding the No Exposure Exclusion has been added to this draft pennit. 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.

This letter is written to submit comments concerning the Draft NPDES Storm Water Permit Dated
February 16, 2009 for Structural Wood Preserving.
Under Port 11 Section B of this permit are requirements for analytical monitoring. Under this section you
state that the Table 3 benchmark values "are -not permit limits but should be used as guidelines for the
permittee's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP)". The very next sentence places requirements
if you exceed these levels even one time. This does not make them guidelines. Cox Industries always
reviews sampling event results and tries to make modifications to reduce any pollutants above
benchmark levels. With this permit you have not provided us the opportunity to determine if
modifications succeed as it may take longer than the next sampling event to see a reduction.
Tier One
Requirements under Tier One are acceptabfe.
Tier Two
Under Tier Two if our sampling results are above the benchmark values two times in a row, we
immediately go from semi-annual to monthly sampling requirements. First, we believe that you are not
allowing a facility that has not been required to sample previously any opportunity to institute controls
and determine their effectiveness. We should be allowed up to the fourth consecutive benchmark
exceedance before mandating more frequent sampling.
It will be almost impossible to perform monthly sampling since many of the rain events will happen
within 72 hours or during evening hours when sampling cannot be performed. Sampling should be
increased from semi-annual to quarterly in the event that Tier Two needs to go into effect.

Request for Sampling Relief if results are at or Below Benchmark Parameters -
You have placed severe protocols for sampling results that.exceed the benchmark "guidelines".
Structural Wood would like to request relief from sampling if our results are at or below the benchmark
levels. We suggest one of the two below:
• If our first two consecutive sampling results for the first year are at or below the benchmark,
then we would not have to sample again until the fifth year (semi-annual).
• If our first four consecutive sampling results are at or below the benchmark levels, then we
would not have to sample for the remainder of the permit.
Structural Wood Preserving is a Cox Industries facility. All of our sites strive to meet or exceed
requirements. This facility already has a rigorous inspection, maintenance, and housekeeping plan in
place to minimize any potential contaminants from going off site.
We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the draft NPDES permit and hope to hear from you
regarding our concerns. If you have any questions or require more information, please feel free to

Dear Mr. Pugh:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
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:
Analvtical monitoring changes:
1. Analytical monitoring parameters, Cu, TSS, COD, and BODs, have been added to this permit.
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. You are required to conduct all of the analytical and qualitative monitoring during representative storm
events as defined in Part II Section B. QuaIitative monitoring is required at every outfall regardless of
representative outfall status.
6. In the event that this permit expires, you are responsible for all monitoring until the xenewal 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 still required in this permit, however.)

Structural Visual Monitoring Summary - February, 2007

RAMSEUR, NC
RANDOLPH COUNTY
PERMIT # NCS000452
BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES SUMMARY
Best Management Practices (BMPs) as well as other controls are used to reduce
potential contaminant releases. Some of our controls are as simple as ensuring that
we maintain vegetation, such as grass on slopes to prevent soil erosion and keeping
outfall areas clean and free of debri.
All chemical bulk storage tanks are within secondary containment. None of our
secondary containment structures have any type of drainage system. Only personnel
placing a pump into the diesel and gasoline containment area can remove liquid. This
method prevents any release of oil from our containment system due to rain. Our
chemical storage containment areas that are not located inside a building have
automatic pumps that will pick up liquid and place it into a bulk storage tank located
within the containment area. This liquid is then used in our treating processes.
All full, non -bulk containers, such as drums or totes, are stored either indoors or within a
contained area.
• Finished lumber products are stored under sheds or in the yard until shipment. The
trucks are loaded over asphalt areas. Prior to storing any treated lumber outdoors,
verification that there is no drippage has been documented.
The drip pad is under roof and bermedlsloped to prevent any release. Any liquid
generated from drippage or a rain event flows to a sump and then is automatically
picked up and place into a bulk storage tank inside our secondary containment area for
use in the treatment process. Visual, as well as some documented Inspections are
regularly performed on the drip pad and maintenance, such as sealing of cracks and
coating replacement, is performed as needed.
All cutting of lumber on site is performed under roof. The sawdust and particles are
then loaded into a drum or onto the dump truck. The truck is kept under roof unless
loading.
Housekeeping is an integral part of our BMP program. Yard and work areas are
regularly cleaned and any debris is removed.
Various types of equipment associated with this wood preserving facility include but are
not limited to pressure retorts, mechanical pumps, fueling trucks, maintenance
equipment, freight transfer vehicles, construction equipment and fork lifts.
Structural Wood BMP Summary — February, 2007 Page 1 of 3

gh Trucks, trailers, and forklifts are cleaned in an enclosed, roofed area designed for this
purpose. The water is reclaimed through an oil water separator.
It is recognized that maintenance of vehicles can be a significant source of storm water
pollutants. Materials associated with vehicle maintenance include waste oil, solvents
and other degreasers, brake fluid, anti freeze, battery acids, radiator flush, and sludge.
The following vehicle maintenance practices are utilized:
- Maintenance is completed in an enclosed area protected from runoff and
precipitation whenever possible. If maintenance has to be performed outside
of the enclosed area, all possible means are used to prevent spillage and
approved cleaning methods (oil dry, etc) are used if any spillage occurs.
- All used products are properly stored under roof or inside a building until they
are sent for recycling or disposal.
- Batteries, used tired, and used solvents are collected and recycled through
the appropriate vendors (Typically batteries are recycled immediately, so
there is minimal to no storage). Until recycled, these items are kept under
rood or inside a building.
A feasibility review to determine if there is a way to modify or change our operating
procedures or install controls to further reduce chemical exposure indicates the
following:
o Bulk Chemical containment (Including Diesel) — All bulk chemicals are currently
stored in secondary containment systems and some are under roof. We do not
have any secondary containment systems that can release without manual
pumping.
o Non -bulk chemical containment -- All non -bulk chemicals are currently stored in
secondary containment areas or under roof.
o Particulate containment — Generation of sawdust is currently performed under
roof in the reman area. There is a general cleanup daily.
o Diesel/Gasoline storage — The diesel/gasoline tanks used to fuel the lifts and
trucks are located within a secondary containment system that cannot release
without manual pumping. Filling the tank and fueling procedures are performed
just outside the containment area, but under roof. Maintenance personnel or
supervisors are the only employees that fuel the lifts.
o Treated wood storage — Treated lumber is stored in sheds or outdoors. Prior to
placing the treated lumber outdoors, the material is documented that all drippage
has ceased. This procedure should ensure that there is minimal release of
chemicals during a rain event from the treated lumber. The lumber is also not
placed directly on the ground, but stored 2-6° above to prevent contact.

o Chemical unloading — Chemical unloading is performed on paved areas. Most
hose connections at the tanks for bulk loading or unloading are inside the bulk
storage containment area. Any tank or hose connections outside the contained
area have buckets underneath to catch drips and minor leaks. A qualified
employee with access to the proper safety equipment approves the hook up to
our tank prior to unloading and monitors the loading and unloading process.
Drivers responsible for the tank truck must stay with the trailer during unloading.
To ensure that the BMPs and other controls are in use and working, employees are
taught about controls in use and periodic inspections are performed.

INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES SIGNIFICANT CHANGES SUMMARY
The only significant change in industrial activities was in 2003. Chromated copper
arsenate (CCA) wood preservative was replaced with a non -arsenical copper amine
formula (Copper Azole).
