Subject: General Stormwater Permit Inspection — NPDES Permit No. NCG080662
City of Graham Public Works, 105 West Parker Street — Alamance County
Dear Mr. Braxton:
On June 15, 2010, Jenny Graznak of this office performed a Stormwater Permit
Inspection at the City of Graham Public Works Facility located at 105 West Parker Street in
Graham, North Carolina. This facility holds General Stormwater Permit No. NCG080662 under
the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to discharge stormwater
associated with activities that have Vehicle Maintenance Areas. As Director of the City's Public
Works Department, you were present for the inspection. This type of inspection consists of two
basic parts: a review of facility files and self -monitoring data and an inspection of the facility's
storage areas and discharge points. This particular inspection evaluated five (5) areas, and
observations from each area are addressed below:
1. Permit
The permit became effective November 1, 2007 and expires October 31, 2012. Please::make

permit text from our website: http://portal.ncdenr.org/weblw-q/ws/su/npdessw.
2. Records/Reports
As required by the Permit, the facility has a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) that
was available for review during the inspection. The SPPP includes a location map, a site plan
with outfalls, documentation of annual employee training, and an inspection certification. The
next Employee Training event will occur June 17, 2010 YouF� VPP_ ould also include a'list

for a complete listing of the required components of the SPPP.
3. Facility Site Review
Aside from the underground storage tanks at the facility used for fueling purposes, there are two
2,000-gallon tanks on site, one for hydraulic fluid and the other for motor oil. All maintenance
activities occur inside the maintenance shop. The floor drains in the maintenance sho-p are
directed to the sanitary sewer. Old batteries are picked up on a weekly basis. Used oil is stored
in a 270-gallon tank inside the maintenance building, and is picked up by Noble's Oil Service as
necessary. Trucks are washed under cover and all wash water is directed to sanitary sewer via

a floor drain in the wash bay. There is no oil/water separator on the property. Piles of sand and
salt are maintained under cover and are bermed with bales of hay.
4. EEfluent/Receiving�Waters
Stormwater from the property discharges to an unnamed tributary to Haw River in the Cape
Fear River Basin. The site has three collection points for storm water from the site: two storm
water grates and one ditch. They all lead to one outfall, which is a culvert on Parker Street
across from the facility.
5. Self -Monitoring Program
Since the vehicle maintenance activities at this facility do not utilize more than 55 gallons of new
motor oil per month and the facility does not discharge stormwater from an oil water separator,
according to the permit, you are not required to conduct analytical monitoring. Therefore,
monitoring requirements at the facility are limited to semi-annual qualitative inspections at each
of the site's stormwater discharge outfalls. A review of the qualitative monitoring data during the
inspection showed that all parameters were analyzed per the specifications of the permit.
You should document your_ motor oil usage and include.. is.. information its --the site's
SPPP. You stated during the inspection that if the City acquires a few more vehicles, the
facility's use of motor oil could surpass the 55 gallons per month limit for exemption of analytical
monitoring. Please refer to the analytical monitoring requirements in the permit text so that you
are familiar with them should you need to start the semi-annual sampling.
If you have any questions concerning this letter or the attached inspection report, please
contact Ms. Graznak or me at [phone].
