Dear Mr. Patterson:
On August 2, 2011 inspector Myrl Nisely of the Raleigh Regional Office (RRO) toured the facility with
Manager Tim Hayes to evaluate whether the above general permit will be appropriate for this facility. His help
was greatly appreciated. Please see the attached inspection report. RRO is recommending to the Stormwater
Permitting Unit that the permit should be issued.
To assure compliance with analytical parameters in the permit, a great deal of cleanup around the facility will
be needed. There are locations around the outside of the building, and especially in the area of the loading lean-
to where the ground has been contaminated with oil. Once production is underway an inspection will be made
near the end of 2011 by this office to re-evaluate conditions. Your consultant, who is preparing the required
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, should be able to offer guidance on what cleanup is considered
necessary.
If you have any questions or comments on this report, please contact me at 919-791-4200.

Permit: NCGO60331
Inspection Date: 08/02/2011
Inspection Summary:
Owner- Facility: James Patterson
Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation
Reason for Visit: Routine
The purpose of this inspection was to provide a staff report to the Stormwater Permitting Unit in response to a permit
application by AgNatural. The company is currently refitting a large complex of buildings to press oil from cotton seeds,
and hopes to be ready by late September or October for the 2011 cotton harvest. In addition to installing their equipment,
there will need to be a great deal of cleanup to remove residues and junk from the floors of the building.
The front of the facility is flat and covered with crushed stone and dirt. There is a grass buffer between this lot and an
elevated railroad track, meaning that stormwater cannot leave the site through the entrance driveway. Rainwater soaks
into the ground rapidly, judging by the dry surface after a signficant rain the day before this inspection. There is one
stormwater grate in front of the office building, but its discharge point is not known.
The back of the building slopes slightly away from the building and has shallow swales that carry water parallel to the
building to a culvert pipe that goes under a crushed stone roadway. Downstream of the culvert is a small retention pond,
heavily surrounded by weeds. The overflow travels toward the Roanoke River. Very likely this would be the only
discharge and sampling point.
Cottonseed processing will all take place inside the building, with the resultant oil piped to two large tanks under a large
lean-to that has a very high roof. Trucks will be top loaded from the tanks, which are inside a concrete block secondary
containment that has no drain. The integrity of the containment walls appeared sound, but there is a crack in the floor that
should be repaired to assure all liquids would be retained. On the outside of the containment next to a ramshackle
building that will not be used for anything, is an oil soaked patch of ground where an air compressor stood for many
years. This area, along with all the rest of the area under this loading zone will be cleaned up. There are many pieces of
equipment from the old plant stored there now, some of which are being used in rebuilding the plant. Another inspection
should be made near the end of this year once the plant is operating to evaluate the cleanliness and potential for
rainwater runoff from around this lean-to structure.
The process involves pressing and milling of the seeds, but there will be the use of sodium hydroxide in the refining step
inside the building. Another look at the potential for a release to exit the building should be made.
AnNaturai has already contracted with a consultant to develop the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, so that should
be available by the next inspection.
RRO recommends issuing the permit.

Inspection Date: .0910412013 Inspection Type: Technical Assistance Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
A request for Representative Outfall Status was received by the Stormwater Program on July 10, 2013. A site visit was
conducted (after Richard Newton conducted sampling at one outfall and the results were reviewed over the phone with
him - by Dave Parnell) on September 4, 2013. The facility has designated 18 outfalls, but has conducted only one
sampling at SDO#1. During a wak-orouW& the site, Dave Parnell suggested ways of combining several of the SDO into
a total of 3-4, providea some BMPs such"as diversion swales were used to move stormwater to a common location. The
map must be r. Ishowing the 3-4 outfalls after the grading has been done. Much vegetation must be removed to
access propos'0 # 3 and it must be monitored at a location above the point that stormwater from the adjacent
facility co -mingles with Resers'. These locations were discussed with Richard Newton and he was requested to contact
Parnell when this work was completed and vegetation was removed. All graded areas need to be seeded, mulched and
tacked.

Dear Mr. Wiggins:
} MAY - 1 2013
Per our telephone conversation this morning, I wanted to explain exactly what happened with
the minor cottonseed oil/waste water spill we had at AgNatural, LLC.
Two weeks ago one of our night shift crews had a minor spill of cottonseed oil and waste water
(about 100 gallons) that did not make it off the property. The next day we cleaned it up and
since then we have put in other preventative measures for future occurrences that may
happen. One of the employees on the shift that caused the incident has since been terminated.
As stated before, all of the spill was contained on our property and we feel that we have done
everything we can to prevent this from happening again. It is not our policy to discharge any
waste water in our spillways. All waste water in our facility is pumped into a tank and trucked
to Chicago and the night shift crew that had this spill was directed to pump into our waste tank,
not the spill way. If someone would like to come inspect our spillways and give us any advice so
they may be more efficient just in case future incidents may occur, please feel free to do so at
any time. We would gladly like any insight on this. Thank you for any help you can give us on
this matter.

Mr. Wiggins,
I, Tim Hayes, am writing this letter to you in response to the letter I received from you about
our inspection you conducted at AgNatural LLC in Weldon, NC on November 12, 2012. 1 have addressed
the issues that you pointed out to me that need attention in our SPCC plan. I'm still in the process of
developing our preventive maintenance program, Section 2 e of the letter. The only concern I have, was
in part 4 of your letter. We do service our mobile equipment at our location threw a contractor,
Gregory Poole, and they take all old oil off site when they perform this maintenance. So at this time we
don't use 55 gallons of motor/hydraulic oil per month. So I assume that we are except from part 4 of
the letter. AgNatural is dedicated to keeping the environment clean and safe at all times and we will
continue to improve in any area of operation to maintain a clean and safe environment.
I really appreciate your time and help that you have giving me during this process. I have also
sent a copy of all the items that I have addressed with this letter.
Thanks,
Tim Hayes

Feasibility Stud
AgNatural LLC, located in Weldon, NC stores all income and outbound materials inside the facility
except for the finished oil and the delinted cottonseed. The finished oil is stored in two bulk storage
tank to the west end of the facility with secondary containment walls around both tanks and cover by a
tin roof. The delinted cottonseed is stored in a truck bin that is fully enclosed. AgNatural loads their
outgoing products both inside and outside of the facility. The load out conveyor to the outside of the
building is covered with a tin roof. Agnatural will do everything possible to maintain the roof over this
area to prevent runoff of any product and the secondary containment around the bulk storage tanks
from getting storm water in it. Wherever practical, AgNatural shall prevent exposure of all storage
areas, material handling operations, and manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where
elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility
of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination

Best Management Practices
AgNatural is dedicated to keeping the environment clean at all times. We are
dedicated to keeping the water run off as clean as we can. We have installed a
catch basin in our refining area to catch all process water to keep it from running
off site. We have also installed an oil -water separator to remove oil from the
water. At this time we pump our process water into our soap tank and ship it out
with the soap. We also clean up our cyclone pads periodically and when we have
a plug up to prevent lint and dust to contaminate run off water.

Q' 5 Zdll
I am in receipt of your letter requiring Reser's Fine Foods Halifax Food Plant to develop
a stormwater run-off plan based on your observation when you visited the plant.
The specific form that you are requesting, I must have misplaced. I have searched my
office and I cannot find it. I would appreciate having another one sent to me or advise
where to find it on a North Carolina government internet site.
I apologize that I can't find it, but we have already prepared a team to develop our plan
and will be proceeding with the development. Additionally, we have had follow-up
conversations with the local waste company we work with here in Halifax.

Reser S+ PS Form 3B11, February 2004

Halifax, NC 27839
Subject: Complaint Investigation and Application for Stormwater Permit
NC General Permit NCG060000
Reser's Fine Foods
Halifax County
Dee Freeman
Secretary
On June 30, 2011 Mr. Myrl Nisely of the Raleigh Regional Office, along with Pretreatment Coordinator
for your facility Greta Glover, made a reconnaissance inspection of dumpster operations at the rear of
Reser's production building. Roanoke Rapids Sanitary District had identified impacts on stormwater,
spoken with you, and reported the issue with the dumpsters to Halifax County Solid Waste who in turn
contacted North Carolina Solid Waste, who in turn contacted the Division of Water Quality. Food
wastes have drained from dumpsters onto the asphalt lot and travelled to two outlets into a grassy area.
Releases have been occurring long enough for a pool in the grass to develop a layer of sludge on the
surface. This release of wastewater, and failure to have a stormwater permit, are violations subject to _
civil penalty enforcements of up to $25,000/ day.
The SIC code (20) for food processors is one -of several industries identified by US EPA as requiring a
stormwater permit. Accordingly, an application form and technical bulletin for the general permit
appropriate for Food and Kindred Processing, NCG060000, were provided to you during our visit.
Please submit the completed form to the address indicated within 20 days of receipt of this letter.
As I discussed with you, the permit will require Reser's to develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan. The Plan is to include, among other topics, Best Management Practices (BMPs) to eliminate
potential pollutants, identification of outfalls, and preparation of a site map, semi-annual sampling and
provision of annual employee training about stormwater protection. Please have this Plan prepared as
instructed in the permit and available when DWQ inspectors make a future visit several months from
now.
