Rescission of NPDES Stormwater Permit
Permit Number: NCG210052
Burke County
On July 23, 2018, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received your
request to rescind your NPDES Stormwater Permit Number NCG210052. On August 6,
2018 our office denied your request for rescission due to disturbed areas on your site. In
a subsequent inspection on October 9, 2018 our Asheville Regional Office verified the
stabilization of your site. In accordance with your request, Stormwater Permit Number
NCG210052 is rescinded effective immediately.
Operating a treatment facility, discharging wastewater or discharging specific types of
stormwater to waters of the State without valid coverage under an NPDES permit is
against federal and state laws and could result in fines. If something changes and your
facility would again require stormwater or wastewater discharge permit coverage, you
should notify this office immediately. We will be happy to assist you in assuring the
proper permit coverage.
If the facility is in the process of being sold, you will be performing a public service if you
would inform the new or prospective owners of their potential need for NPDES permit
coverage.

Subject: RE: Rescission approvals
Ok, thanks. I hate to think I have been doing it wrong all this time.
Rescission request approvals currently:
1) Blackstone wood products NCG210052. Good to go for rescission. I went out there first on July 31, 2018 and
they had some bare areas where some minor land clearing had been done. I denied the request at that time, but
they requested that I come back out, so I re -inspected on October 9, 2018. All issues were fixed and crass was
getting established in the disturbed area.
2) L3 Technologies NCGNE1231. Good to go. Facility is now owned by AVL. I inspected it on October 17, 2018. 1 am
currently looking into the permit status of the new facility.
3) A rescission request may be needed for WestRock NCGNE1091. Did an inspection at their NCG180003 facility in
Rutherford County and when I mentioned an NEC showing active for NCGNE1091 they didn't know why it wasn't
rescinded already. I visited the facility, and its being used by another company to warehouse material now. Have
they already submitted a rescission request? I was unable to locate one. It would have been submitted a while
back. I inspected it on October 18, 2018.

Re: NCG210052
I have been talking with Michael Smith of your Asheville office and he advised

Due to our government allowing our customers to source from China, I have been

Along with this letter, I am sending a rescission request form and I would appreciate
you expediting it. I am also sending the gps coordinates. For the record we have
not allowed any hazardous materials to get into storm water during the years we

Also, the person we are talking with about buying the plant will not be engaged

COC Number NCG210052

Dear Permittee:
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG210000 the Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued stormwater General Permit. This permit has been reissued pursuant to
the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North
Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007.
The following information is included with your permit package:
• A new Certificate of Coverage
• A copy of stormwater General Stormwater Permit NCG210000
• A copy of the Technical Bulletin for the General Permit
• Five copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form
• Five copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater only, and it specifies your obligations with respect to stormwater
discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all
the changes in the reissued permit.
The more significant changes to the General Permit include the following:
• Permit cover page, second paragraph — The General Permit now may cover activities that DWQ determines to be similar in
either the process, or in the exposed materials, to the Timber Products Industry.
• Part I Section A — A new provision that facilities draining to 303(d) listed waters, or in watersheds with an approved TMDL,
may not be eligible for continued coverage at the next renewal of the General Permit.
• Part i Section B second paragraph — A new clarification that the permit does not authorize discharges that DWQ determines
are wastewaters.
• Part II Section A — The required contents of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan have been expanded and clarified.
• Part II Section B Table 1 — A new requirement to sample stormwater discharges twice per year for those facilities with
exposed piles of certain materials remaining on site longer than seven days.
• Part II Section B Tables 2 and 3 and following — For permittees with exposed piles, there are new provisions requiring the
permittee to execute Tier One and Tier Two response actions, based on the first benchmark exceedence (Tier One) and the
second consecutive benchmark exceedence (Tier Two). Tier Two requires that the permittee institute monthly monitoring
instead of twice -per -year monitoring, until three consecutive monitoring events show no benchmark exceedences.
• Part II Section B — For permittees with exposed piles, a new provision that four exceedences of any particular benchmark
will trigger increased DWQ involvement in the permittee's stormwater management and control actions. DWQ may direct
the permittee to apply for an individual permit, or may direct the implementation or installation of specific stormwater control
measures.
• Part II Section C — Clarification that under the qualitative monitoring provisions of the permit, the permittee is obligated to
respond to repeated observations of stormwater pollution. DWQ may impose additional stormwater management
requirements if the permittee is non -responsive, or if the responses are ineffective.
Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ.
