MEMORANDUM FOR FILE
Kings Mountain Venture permit no. NC0005274, is a major permit which is on the NPDES backlog list.
It was an OCPSF facility but now it is a Brownfield site and the plant is closed
down. No process wastewaters have been discharged from the facility for several
years. Some stormwater was discharged and tested last year and the Stormwater
Unit concluded that a permit was not necessary as long as no industrial activities
took place at the site. Four vats containing diluted wastewaters holding
approximately 200,000 gallons, total, remain at the site. Mr. Stephen Timm the
facility's consultant from Safety Training and Environmental Services has been in
contact with DWQ while trying to assess disposal options. On March 21, 2011 he
called to inform NPDES that the facility was going to persue disposing of the
wastewaters via the City of Lowell's WWTP. After they have successfully
discharged the wastewaters to the City they will request that their permit be
recinded. According to Mr. Timm this should occurr around the end of the
summer.
