Subject: NPDES General Stormwater Permit
Permit Number NCG100151
Representative Outfall Status Request
Lifetime Audi Parts
Durham County
The Raleigh Regional Office staff have reviewed your request dated June 3, 2019 for a
determination that stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) 001 be granted representative outfall status
(ROS) for stormwater outfall 002. Based on the compliance evaluation inspection conducted by
Thad Valentine on November 1, 2019 the Raleigh Regional Office cannot approve your request at
this time.
According to Mr. Valentine, Analytical and qualitative records were available for the
inspection, but many of the sample parameters where not being analyzed. In addition, there are
exceedances for lead for both of the previous semi-annual sample periods. Once all the required
analytical data is being collected, we would ideally like to see a minimum of eight (8) to ten (10)
analytical and qualitative samples to support the assertion of similar or less stormwater pollution
potential in the sub -drainage areas to be represented. When evidence supports ROS after eight (8)
to ten (10) analytical and qualitative sample events, you may request ROS consideration from this
office.
If you have any questions or comments concerning this letter, please contact Thad Valentine at
[phone], or at thad.yalentineCa ncdenuoy.
Sincerely,
William H. Denton, IV,PE
