Permit: NCG064t48 Owner- Facility: Butterball LLC
Inspection Date: 04120t2016 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Vasa: ROutine
Inspection Summary:
Met with Josh Batchelor onsite for a NPDES SW inspection. The SWPPP was in two parts, the SWPPP and the 1CP.
The SWPPP should be integrated into the ICP. The ICP should be updated regularly, for example, the plant manager was
not recently updated The plan should be used as a workbook to document all activities related to stormwater permit
maintenance. The yearly training attendance was not completed. I suggested to Batchelor that he should provide training
for his department during monthly safety/ operations meetings, record attendance, and insert into ICP. The spill response
record was not completed If no spills occured on site, then yearly documentation should be completed as "no spills this
year." Best management practices should be defined and maintenance of each measure should be recorded on a regular
basis.
Outfalls t and 2 are considered as part of wastewater permit. Outfall 3 is regulated under the 8tormwater permit
Sampling records (analytical and quantitative) should be combined for each sampling date for comparison purposes.
Sampling records should be maintained in the ICP,
A quick review of the analytical sampling results indicated a consistant problem with fecal coliform results in outfail #3 with
numbers reaching 20,000/mL. Submit all sampling results for last 5 years. Please review the tier system and evaluate
where your facility should be.
Submit coorespondence with former NCDEO (NCDENR) employees regarding the stormwater permit and outfall #3 as
Batchelor indcated former employees may have made concessions that I do not have a record of.

Yep. Section 8 of the SWPPP actually explains the fecal situation for Outfall 001, but having the e-mail validates that we
didn't just make it up in the event DENR misplaces the e-mail....

`i.
Please reduce the monitoring at that outfall for Fecal Coliform to semi annual frequency. (in other
words, sample in accordance with the permit requirements specified on page 4 of 8 of Part II of the
permit text). Since the outfall is still draining an industrial area that can pose exposure (secondary
containment) and I noted a greasy scum on the surface of the stormwater at that outfall.. 1 won't be
able to eliminate it as an outfall for sampling. I do know that oil and grease can be a sink for fecal
coliform bacteria, however, you demonstrated that your industrial areas where Fecal Coliform
exposures exist are not plumbed to that outfall, so the source of bacteria may well be from
wildlife. After,careful consideration, I am exercising the ability for the RO to allow a decrease in the
monitoring`frequency for the parameter of concern (Fecal Coliform) as described on Page 7 of 8 of Part II
of your NPDES Permit. Please continue to compare all other parameters at that outfall to the
benchmarks and'apply the tiered responses in accordance with the permit.
Please contact me if you have any questions whatsoever concerning this correspondence. Also, please
use this correspondence as confirmation of the DWQ response to your request to eliminate the tier 2
requirements for the outfall at the road. Thank you for your patience Lankford.

Linda Willis

Linda,
Have you had a chance to review the material? I ask, because I would like to have Linda Lamb finalize
the updated ICP (SPCCP & Storm water Plan). I think the only question is, can we do qualitative
monitoring at Outfall # 1? Given that the off-loading of N2 is the only product of concern, and given that
the off-load area does have a controlled sump, unless precedence shows otherwise, I would think
qualitative monitoring would satisfy the requirements.
Your thoughts?

Lankford

Linda,
I'm forwarding these Outfall #1 analyzes on Josh's behave, as he is out sick right now. Also, I have
attached a drawing that shows that the RTE process drains are tied to lift stations. These lift stations
send water to our offal and from there goes to the wastewater treatment plant. The statement on the
drawing "To Be Tested", are referring to drains that still need to be linked to the correct lift station. The
point of this drawing is to document that an exercise was taken by Engineering to understand where the
process drains went; and the point for our purpose is, none go to storm water. I hope this answers the
necessary questions. If not, just give me a call.

Lankford,
I received your call today, I'm going into a meeting at 1 pm. Will you please prepare a copy of your
annual monitoring results for that outfall for me and send it to me via email? It's actually due in
March. Also, please forward to me the details of the investigative work your staff conducted
concerning areas draining to that outfall. Can you send me all that in one concise email please? What
may be an issue yet is the fact that your secondary containment is pumped to this outfall so I'm not
certain our central office will agree it is appropriate to eliminate your requirement to monitor, but we
can address if fecal is appropriate. They may want to see analyses from samples collected upstream in
the ditch. So, if you have that info too, }Tease forward that to me as well.

Inspection Summary:
Josh is in the process of finding the source of fecal. This facility slaughters and cooks turkey. The previous employee
handling stormwater thought the high fecals were from the roof drains to their collection outfall. Josh walked the roof and
saw no signs of bird droppings that would pose problems. I recommended he sample the ditch upstream of their
stormwater outfall to see what the background fecal levels looks like. I also recommended he look into the floor drains in
the facility to ensure no cross connections were present from the slaughteringlwashdownloffal collection areas. I
recommended he call me in the near future if the fecal continues to be high so that I can conduct another site inspection.
If his fecal is in line with upstream fecal counts, I would support going back to semi annual monitoring for the remainder of
2011. If it higher than the background levels, they would need to stay within the higher tiers and continue to evaluate their
site for potential sources.

Comment: Josh was concerned that the stormwater monitoring for Fecal Coliform was
out of hold time. The sample was collected at 6pm on Jan 17th 2011 and was
submitted to the lab this morning. Wondered if they should run the sample and report or
wait for a storm event during work hours.

Re: Compliance Evaluation Inspection, NPDES General Stormwater Permit NCG 060108
Mt. Olive Turkey Processing Center, Duplin County.
Dear Mr. Lambe:
This memo and attachments are in response to the subject inspection conducted on April 20,
2016, and the written report received from you following that inspection. There were some
administrative concerns noted and questions about fecal coliform counts for one of the three
permitted outfalls. The fecal coliform (FC) issue will be addressed first, and then the
administrative concerns.
First, it should be noted that your report identifies the outfall in question as outfall 43. It is in
fact outfall #1. There is history with outfall #1's FC readings, which Butterball and with
direction from the NCDEQ (NCDENR at the time) put an approach in place to address
programmatic and problematic FC readings that were consistently popping up at outfall #l. The
correspondence between NCDENR and Butterball, along with the e-mail from Linda Willis of
NCDENR that directed Butterball to perform qualitative monitoring semi-annually are attached;
along with the records you requested.
With respect to the feathers, we do conduct site cleanup around the outside areas of the Plant.
The feathers, unfortunately, are just impossible to keep up with. The feathers coming off the
birds are just a natural part of their existence, however your point is noted, and we will continue
to perform site cleanup as best we can.
BUTiER®All
As for the administrative.concerns; it should be noted that the Integrated Contingency Plan (ICI')
is a combined SWPPP, SPCCP, and Spill Response Plan. This is an approach Butterbafl felt was
best to serve these. regulations given their overlap in certain areas. As for the training records,
which are attached, we have a training group that handles all training for the site. These records
are kept with the training group, and can be requested as needed. These records are attached and
depict who's been trained and when their next annual training is due.
There were no reportable spills in 2015, and as such, no record of spills were recorded. We are
not aware that we are required to document "no spills." As such, is this a requirement or a
preference? Our concern is ensuring that we don't violate a requirement, and as such, we would
have to come up with an administrative approach to ensure that responsible personnel remember
to document no spills — as this could easily be forgotten to do in the event of no spills.
1 hope this response along with the attachments addresses your observations and concerns. If
you have additional questions, please call me at 919-658-6743.

Joshua Batchelor, ORC

Inspection Summary:
This facility has had issues with high fecal coliform at their outfall at the front of the facility. They conducted investigations
to determine if any process areas drain to that outfall. A secondary containment structure discharges to this drainway and
therefore could not be eliminated from their monitoring requirements. The secondary containment serves the liquid
nitrogen storage area. Grease/oil scum was noted at the discharge from the pipe that is underground, coming from the
facility. An investigation by Butterball personnel did not find any connectivity from production areas for this discharge.
Correspondence concerning this site inspection was sent via email by L. Willis on February 10, 2012.

Comment. WiRO is allowing this permittee to reduce monitoring frequency for fecal
coliform bacteria to semi annual frequency. They conducted a study to establish
whether any process areas drain to the outfall at the front of the site that discharges to
the road side ditch. They have been experiencing high fecal counts at the road
discharge which could be contributed by wildlife as well as the trucks hauling turkeys
into the. facility.

Some of the changes include:
Part II:
• Section A: The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) section, if applicable, has been updated
to the most current language of our permits. Additional conditions for specific industry sectors have
been added to the SPPP requirements in some cases.
• Sections B, C: Failure to perform analytical stormwater monitoring may result in the Division requiring
that the permittee begin a monthly sampling scheme.
• Sections B, C: A lower TSS benchmark of 50 mg/I for HQW, ORW, PNA and Tr Waters applies to these
more sensitive waters.
• Sections B, C: The monitoring parameter Oil & Grease (O&G) has been replaced by the parameter
Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) for vehicle maintenance areas, and in some cases, other
analytical monitoring requirements.
• Sections B, C, D: Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be recorded in the SPPP, or in
separate on -site records if your General Permit does not require an SPPP. Adverse weather is defined
in the "Definitions" section of the permit.
• Sections B, C: The term "Representative Storm Event" has been replaced by "Measurable Storm
Event." A measurable storm event is defined in the permit.
• Section D: If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative
monitoring, DWQ may require the permittee to perform corrective action.
Please review Parts III and IV to understand the Standard Conditions of your new NPDES General Permit,
including Compliance and Liability, Reporting, Monitoring and Records requirements; Operation and
Maintenance obligations; and Definitions. Please note that all samples analyzed in accordance with the terms
of this permit must be submitted to the Division on Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) forms available on
the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website above. DMR forms must be delivered to the Division no later than
30 days from the date the facility receives the sampling results from the laboratory. Also note that existing
permittees do not need to submit a renewal request prior to expiration unless directed by the Division.
Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ. This permit
does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR, nor does it
relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law,
rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. If you have any questions regarding this permit
package, please contact the Division's Stormwater Permitting Unit at (919) 807-6306.

Inspection Summary:
This facility has had issues with high fecal coliform at their outfall at the front of the facility. They conducted investigations
to determine if any process areas drain to that outfall. A secondary containment structure discharges to this drainway and
therefore could not be eliminated from their monitoring requirements. The secondary containment serves the liquid
nitrogen storage area. Grease/oil scum was noted at the discharge from the pipe that is underground, coming from the
facility. An investigation by Butterball personnel did not find any connectivity from production areas for this discharge.

Lankford
Please reduce the monitoring at that outfall for Fecal Coliform to semi annual frequency. (In other words, sample in
accordance with the permit requirements specified on page 4 of 8 of Part II of the permit text). Since the outfall is still
draining an industrial area that can pose exposure (secondary containment) and I noted a greasy scum on the surface of
the stormwater at that outfall.. I won't be able to eliminate it as an outfall for sampling. I do know that oil and grease
can be a sink for fecal coliform bacteria, however, you demonstrated that your industrial areas where Fecal Coliform
exposures exist are not plumbed to that outfall, so the source of bacteria may well be from wildlife. After careful
consideration, I am exercising the ability for the RO to allow a decrease in the monitoring frequency for the parameter
of concern (Fecal Coliform) as described on Page 7 of 8 of Part it of your NPDES Permit. Please continue to compare all
other parameters at that outfall to the benchmarks and apply the tiered responses in accordance with the permit.
Please contact me if you have any questions whatsoever concerning this correspondence. Also, please use this
correspondence as confirmation of the DWQ response to your request to eliminate the tier 2 requirements for the
outfall at the road. Thank you for your patience Lankford.
Sincerely,
Linda Willis

Linda,
Have you had a chance to review the material? I ask, because I would like to have Linda Lamb finalize the updated ICP
(SPCCP & Storm water Plan). I think the only question is, can we do qualitative monitoring at Outfall # 1? Given that the
off-loading of N2 is the only product of concern, and given that the off-load area does have a controlled sump, unless
precedence shows otherwise, I would think qualitative monitoring would satisfy the requirements.

Linda,
I'm forwarding these Outfall #1 analyzes on Josh's behave, as he is out sick right now. Also, I have attached a drawing
that shows that the RTE process drains are tied to lift stations. These lift stations send water to our offal and from there
goes to the wastewater treatment plant. The statement on the drawing "To Be Tested", are referring to drains that still
need to be linked to the correct lift station. The point of this drawing is to document that an exercise was taken by
Engineering to understand where the process drains went; and the point for our purpose is, none go to storm water. I
hope this answers the necessary questions. If not, just give me a call.

I received your call today, I'm going into a meeting at 1 pm. Will you please prepare a copy of your annual monitoring
results for that outfall for me and send it to me via email? It's actually due in March. Also, please forward to me the
details of the investigative work your staff conducted concerning areas draining to that outfall. Can you send me all that
in one concise email please? What may be an issue yet is the fact that your secondary containment is pumped to this
outfall so I'm not certain our central office will agree it is appropriate to eliminate your requirement to monitor, but we
can address if fecal is appropriate. They may want to see analyses from samples collected upstream in the ditch. So, if
you have that info too, please forward that to me as well.

RTE-floor drains lift station-D-SIZE.pdf
Linda,
The Mt. Olive Engineering group provided me a drawing that was developed to show which drains went to either the
Further Processing (FP) Cook Lift Station or FP Raw Lift Station. The Lift Stations pump the water to the offal, which goes
to the wastewater treatment plant. Further, the statement on the drawing "To Be Tested", is referring to drains that
needed to be identified as to which lift station it went to; not if it went to one. As such, no RTE drains we're found to be
tied to storm water— as it should be. I hope this satisfies the questions for modification to managing Outfall 1.

o�°F9 Technical Bulletin for N.C. General Stormwater
r
Y Permit NCG060000
I Technical Bulletin for NCGO60000 Last Revised 11/15/2012 I
What is regulated by this General Permit?
This General Permit regulates stormwater discharges from the following industrial manufacturing activities:
✓Food and kindred products; Tobacco products; Soaps, detergents and cleaning preparations; Perfumes, cos-
metics and other toilet preparations; Drugs; Public warehousing and storage; and like activities
What does my permit require me to do?
✓Develop and implement a written stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) (Part 11, Section A).
,,'Develop and implement an assessment of best management practices associated with off loading, handling and
spill prevention of rendered fats and oils that are stored and used at the facility (Only facilities that use or process
animal fats / byproducts) (Part 11, Section E).
✓ Provide secondary containment for bulk storage of liquid materials (Part 11, Section A).
✓Conduct semi-annual self -monitoring of the pollutant content in stormwater discharges, and report the results to
DWQ (Part 11, Sections B and C).
✓Conduct semi-annual visual inspections of stormwater pollutant sources, control measures, conveyances, and out -
falls (Part It, Sections A and D).
✓Respond to monitoring results that exceed the numerical benchmarks with management actions to reduce the
level of pollutants in the stormwater discharges. The numerical benchmarks are considered as 'action levels.'
Why?
,/The General Permit seeks to reduce industrial pollution in rainfall runoff from manufacturing businesses by re-
quiring site managers to be aware of, and control, the potential for polluted runoff.
✓Federal and state laws and regulations require the control of industrial pollution in stormwater runoff.
✓Those laws and regulations reflect the public's support for providing for clean natural waters in our state and
nation.
What has changed since the last renewal in 2007?
• The required content of the SPPP has been expanded slightly and clarified in minor ways in several paragraphs.
• The permittee may now sample discharges from any measureable storm event, rather than from a representative
event. This change should make it easier to obtain a sample from a qualifying rain event.
• The permit text now clarifies that failure to sample due to adverse weather, or due to no discharge during the nor-
mal monitoring period, may be excused. However, the permits now require additional monthly monitoring for un-
excused failures to monitor.
• Vehicle Maintenance Areas (VMA) shall be monitored for Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) rather than Oil &
Grease (O&G).
• VMA monitoring is now triggered by the total oil usage for motor oil plus hydraulic oil. The trigger remains at a total
of 55 gallons per month, average.
• A lower TSS benchmark of 50 mg/L applies for discharges to especially protected water classifications.
• Facilities that use or process animal fats / byproducts must now complete an assessment of best management prac-
tices (BMPs) associated with off loading, handling and spill prevention of rendered fats and oils that are stored and
used at the facility (Part 11, Section E).
I PAGE TECHNICAL BULLETIN FOR N.C. GENERAL STORMWATER PERMIT NCG060000 LAST REV. 1111512012
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to monitor all outfalls?
Yes. However, you may request ROS
(Representative Outfall Status). If ROS is
approved, this status allows analytical
monitoring at fewer outfalls. To request
ROS, submit a ROS Request Form.SWU-
ROS (from our website) to the DWQ
.Regional Office.
What if I can't collect a storm -
water discharge in 30 minutes?
When distances separate multiple out -
falls and preclude collection within 30
minutes of each discharge event, begin
collection within 30 minutes and then
continue until all outfalls are sampled.
Documentation must be kept in the
SPPP.
Can I take more samples than
is required by my permit?
Yes. The permittee may take multiple
samples at any time while under permit
coverage. The permittee may find the
extra sampling useful to quickly identify
causes of benchmark exceedances. All
sampling for the permit parameters
must be reported to DWQ on the DMR
forms.
What if I can't sample because
of bad weather?
Adverse weather is dangerous or it may
limit access for sampling personnel.
Your documentation of adverse weather
and the reasons for not sampling must
be included in your SPPP. A substitute
sample may be taken during the next
qualifying storm event.
What if I don't address visual
monitoring problems?
If you do not respond to problems seen
in visual monitoring, DWQ may require
that you increase the visual monitoring
frequency, apply for an individual per-
mit, implement in -stream monitoring,
install or modify structural stormwater
controls, or implement other controls.
What if I forget to monitor?
DWQ may require monthly monitoring
for a specified time period.
Why did you replace Oil &
Grease with TPH in VM areas?
The TPH test only targets chemicals de-
rived from crude oil. The Oil & Grease
(0&G) test recovers fats from animal &
vegetable sources and chemicals from
crude oil. Because TPH is more specific,
it is a better parameter for vehicle main-
tenance areas. The TPH method we are
specifying is EPA 1664A (SGT-HEM). It is
important to note that DWQ is not speci-
fying the more expensive Gas Chromato-
graph (GQ TPH method. DWQ found lab
costs for EPA 1664A (SGT-HEM) to be
comparable to O&G test costs. To test
these parameters in stormwater, labs
must perform this test in accordance
with EPA procedures, but do not need to
be certified. (Vote: A lower benchmark
applies for TPH: 15 mg/l (not 30 mg/1).
Why are there two benchmark
values for TSS?
The 100 mg/L benchmark applies to
most rivers, lakes, and creeks in North
Carolina. However, some other waters
must receive special protection under
North Carolina water quality rules, and
in these two permits discharges to them
are subject to the more protective
benchmark of 50 mg/L. Those waters
classified as Trout Waters, High Quality
Waters, Outstanding Resource Waters,
and Primary Nursery Areas receive this
extra protection in these permits.
Where and when do I send the
monitoring reports?
See your permit text, Part 111, Section E.
Who can help me?
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Offices:
Must I use a North Carolina
certified laboratory?
No. North Carolina water quality rules
do not require that analyses of storm -
water be accomplished by a certified
facility. Please note however, federal
rules at 40CFR136 do require that test-
ing for these two permits be by EPA -
approved lab methods. Analysis by a
North Carolina certified lab is often the
easiest way to insure compliance with
federal rules.
Note that pH is a special case, and
must be measured within 15 minutes
of the sample recovery. You must ei-
ther train on -site staff to conduct pH
testing, or contract with commercial
services to test pH in accordance with
EPA field testing methods.
Must a P. E. sign and stamp my
SPPP?
No. North Carolina water quality rules do
not require that the SPPP be the work
product of a North Carolina P.E.
Who inspects me, and for what?
Staff from the DWQ Regional Offices
shown below will inspect your facility.
They will typically ask to see your SPPP
and will check to see if it is complete and
up to date. They will typically ask to see
your recent monitoring results. They will
typically tour the facility with a focus on
the stormwater discharge outfalls and on
your general housekeeping as a way to
assess the potential for polluted storm -
water discharges. Our staff will always
follow up their Compliance Evaluation
Inspection with a summary letter to you,
restating their findings and, if necessary
indicating whether enforcement action
will be considered in response to those
findings.
