The Fehr Graham representative will also train on -site personnel how to conduct this annually required evaluation. The current SPPP contains a form in which this information can be documented. The completed evaluation forms will be filed with the SPPP. ➢ Item 3 - Employee training has not been conducted or documented as required by Part 11, Section A, Paragraph 5 of the permit. Stormwater training is required at least annually and training must be documented with the signature of each employee in attendance. Fehr Graham is scheduled to conduct stormwater training on June 6, 2013 for all facility personnel with responsibilities for: spill response and clean-up, preventative maintenance activities, and for any of the facility's operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. ➢ Item 4 - The responsible parties identified in the SPPP do not reflect recent personnel changes. Please update the SPPP to list current employees. The facility has identified and updated the list of current employees.

During Fehr Graham's site visit, they will conduct and document a semi-annual site inspection. The employee training will include instruction on conducting and documenting both site stormwater inspections and qualitative monitoring inspections to allow the facility to maintain their inspection schedule moving forward. May 17, 2013 W. Corey Basinger/NCDENR WhiteRidge Plastics Page 3 The NCDENR considers the tack of qualitative monitoring as a serious violation. Fehr Graham will dedicate a significant portion of training to ensure that facility employees are fully trained to conduct and document qualitative monitoring. The training will include the following: identifying a representative storm event, how to collect and analyze a visual sample, and how to complete a SDO Qualitative Monitoring Report. An inspection schedule will be entered into the facility's preventative maintenance calendar to ensure semi-annual inspections are completed in the future. Site Review ➢ Recommendation -A recommendation was made to consider re -seeding the area near Outfall 3 to prevent erosion in the future. The facility agreed with this recommendation and the area near Outfall 3 has been re- seeded. We believe that this letter is sufficient to address and resolve all of the apparent violations. This site is committed to making corrections and improvements to their Stormwater Program and will continue to be diligent in their compliance efforts moving Q forward.

I've attached the permit renewal form that you'll need to submit for your stormwater permit. All the information you need to fill out the form can be found in your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. In the "Facility/Activity Changes" section, go ahead and write that your contact/billing person has changed from Lee Blackburn to Mike Beecher (or whoever is in responsible charge of the plant —see Part III, Section B, Paragraph 5 of your permit for signatory requirements). They may request that you fill out an additional form for that. If so, just let me know and I'll help you if you need help. Additionally, here's some information on "significant" spills and your reporting requirements: Part III of your permit has the following requirement for reporting spills, in addition to the requirement for keeping records of spills in Part II: • The permittee shall report to the central office or the appropriate regional office any noncompliance which may endanger health or the environment. Any information shall be provided orally within 24 hours from the time the permittee became aware of the circumstances. A written submission shall also be provided within 5 days of the time the permittee becomes aware of the circumstances. • The written submission shall contain a description of the noncompliance, and its causes; the period of noncompliance, including exact dates and times, and if the noncompliance has not been corrected, the anticipated time compliance is expected to continue, and steps taken or planned to reduce, eliminate, and prevent reoccurrence of the noncompliance. • The Director may waive the written report on a case -by -case basis if the oral report has been received within 24 hours. A "significant spill" is defined in Part VI as: Includes, but is not limited to: releases of oil or hazardous substances in excess of reportable quantities under section 311 of the Clean Water Act (Ref., 40 CFR 110.3 and 40 CFR 117.3) or section 102 of CERCLA (Ref- 40 CFR 302.4). Here's 40 CFR 117.3: http://www.eoo.Rov/fdsys/oke/CFR-2011-title40-vol22/r)df/CFR-2011-title40-vo122-sec117-3.odf. The other section, 40 CFR 110.3, pertains to oil spills. Section 102 of CERCLA (http://www.epA.gov/osweroel/docs/erL302table0l.pd )lists hazardous substances and their reportable quantities. I would say that to be safe, just let me know any time you have a spill. That way, we can let you know whether it's significant and if you need to have records of it in the Plan. One other thing I wanted to let you know — there is a $100 annual fee that our database shows you have not paid for this year. The due date on that is May 3, 2013. You might want to check and see whether you did send a check, but I think our files might have the incorrect address for you if you haven't received a bill for that fee. If you have NOT paid that fee, go ahead and send a letter and check to the address I'll list below. In the letter, request that they update your contact information to your current address and state that you are attaching a check for the annual fee for your permit number, which is NCG050389. Here's the address (same as for the permit renewal form): Stormwater Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1617 I know that's a lot to deal with, so please let me know if you have any questions.

Skvarla, III Secretary Aana Taylor -Smith of the Winston-Salem Regional Office of the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) conducted a compliance evaluation inspection at the subject facility on 25 April 2013. The assistance and cooperation provided by Ms. Chris Halterman during the inspection were greatly appreciated. An inspection checklist is attached for your records and the inspection findings are summarized below. This facility is located at 109 Sands Road in Reidsville, Rockingham County, North Carolina. Stormwater related to industrial activity is discharged from the site to an unnamed tributary to Little Troublesome Creek, which is currently classified as Class WS (Water Supply) IV, NSW (Nutrient Sensitive Waters), in the Cape Fear River Basin. Documentation & Monitoring Review It is understood that personnel changes may have resulted in a lack of awareness of permit requirements. With that in mind, the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) has not been updated since 2010 and does not meet permit requirements. The following problems were noted with the SPPP: 1. Part II, Section A, Paragraph 1(d) of the permit requires that the facility maintain a list of significant spills, as defined in Part VI of the permit, over the past three years. If no significant spills have occurred in the past three years, that information should be recorded. 2. Recertification that Stormwater Discharge Outfalls (SDOs) have been evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharge should occur annually, as per Part 11, Section A, Paragraph 1(e) of the Permit. That information should be recorded in the SPPP. 3. Employee training has not been conducted or documented as required by Part 11, Section A, Paragraph 5 of the permit. Stormwater training is required at least annually and training must be documented with the signature of each employee in attendance.

The responsible parties identified in the SPPP do not reflect recent personnel changes. Please update the SPPP to list current employees. S. The SPPP has not been updated or amended since 2010. Part II, Section A, Paragraph 7 of the permit requires the SPPP to be reviewed and updated annually. 6. Although a facility inspection program is thoroughly described in the SPPP, facility inspections have not been conducted or documented as required by Part il, Section A, Paragraph 8 of the permit. In addition to the above problems, qualitative monitoring has not been conducted or documented as required. Part II, Section C of the permit requires semi-annual qualitative monitoring at each SDO during a representative storm event, as defined in Part VI of the permit. WhiteRidge Plastics must immediately correct this violation by beginning monitoring as required. Analytical monitoring is not required for this facility, as no vehicle maintenance is carried out on -site. Site Review The facility is orderly and well -maintained. All necessary secondary containment is implemented as required. All three outfalls were examined during the inspection. The SDOs were clean and well -maintained. No evidence of erosion or instability at the SDOs was observed. However, you may want to consider re -seeding the area near Outfall 3 to prevent erosion in the future. No discharge was present at the time of the inspection. The incomplete and inaccurate SPPP, as well as the lack of qualitative monitoring are considered serious violations of the NCG050000 general permit. You are reminded that pursuant to NC General Statute 143-215.6A, the Division may assess civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day, per violation of NCG050000. Please reply in writing to this NOV within 30 days of receiving it. Your reply should detail corrective actions with implementation schedules for each of the violations identified above. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Should you have any questions regarding the NCG050000 permit or this inspection, please contact Ms. Taylor -Smith or me at (336) 771-5000. Sincerely, W.
