Dear Mr. Allen:
PAT MCCRORY
Governor
DONALD R. VAN DER VAART
secretary
On May 26, 2016 Glen White of the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality-,
Department of Energy, Minerals, and Land Resources met with you at the facility located at
1431 Progress Avenue in High Point, to conduct a compliance inspection per the Industrial
Stormwater Permit requirements. Inspection consist of review of the Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan, training and monitoring records and observation of the general condition of the
site, outfalls and any possible exposures. Your assistance with the inspection was greatly
appreciated.
Permit:
This facility holds General Stormwater Permit NCG090021 to discharge stormwater from
industrial activity associated with Manufacturing Paints, Varnishes, Laquers, Enamels, and
Allied Products under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES). The
permit became effective November 01, 2012 and expires on October 31, 2017. A copy of the
current permit is required to be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP) documents. The current permit was available for review and was included in the SPPP.
Records/Reports:
This facility was required to develop and maintain a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP) in accordance with Part I1, Section A of the permit. The SPPP along with monitoring
and training records need to be updated annually. The SPPP has been developed and was
recently updated by Mr. Allen. It is maintained in an electronic file but a hard copy was printed
and available for review at inspection. Even though the most current file is maintained
electronically, all required components of the SPPP including the siteplan, training records, spill
and monitoring records need to be maintained in one 3-ring binder that is within easy reach for
maintenance, review and inspections by both your staff and by the inspector. Please keep one
hard copy current and available at all times. All records must remain with the file for a
minimum of five (5) years.

Facility Site Review:
This facility manufactures waterborne and organic solvent coatings (finishes and adhesives) for
use in wood furniture and flooring manufacturing. The facility is located on 38 acres and
operates (9) nine production and operating lab areas. The plant runs (2) two fulltime shifts with
approximately 158 Manufacturing Operators and approximately 100 Laboratory Operators.
The tank farms have secondary containment. Chemicals and finished product are stored both
inside and outside in specified areas of the facility. There is a 12000 gallon underground storage
tank for spill containment. The facility recently installed a 100,000 gallon stormwater pond.
The pond has two (2) valves that remain closed until after a storm event completes to make sure
contamination into stormwater is prevented. Valves are opened when staff verify that no
contamination exist or any needed cleanup has taken place.
The plant has spill kits strategically stationed throughout. A Spill Team has been established and
they are trained to respond to spills of fifty (50) gallons or larger. They will respond when
needed twenty-four (24) hours a day. The team meets one each week to discuss issues and
procedures that need to be addressed.
Effluent Receivinp, Waters:
Effluent from this facility discharges to, an unnamed tributary of the Uwharrie River, class C,
NSW of the Yadkin Pee -Dee River Basin.
Self -Monitoring Program:
This facility is required to provide both qualitative and analytical monitoring on a semi-annual
basis. The latest required monitoring samples were available and appeared to be within
parameters. Prior monitoring was not available for review. This would have been monitoring
performed prior to Mr. Allen taking over as EHS Manager. If the latest required sampling had
not been conducted, the facility would have been found non -compliant. Please make sure future
monitoring is conducted per permit requirements to maintain compliance.
If you have questions or need additional information, please contact Glen White at (336) 776-
9660.

Subject: RE: Rescission Request Form - AkzoNobel Coatings
Hi, Mike,
Yes, I thought your form was confusing.
AkzoNobel Coatings purchased ChemCraft International, then shut down the Winston Salem location. There is
no one over there now. No one picks up snail, so we use the High Point address for all correspondence for that
site, otherwise things go missing. They used to also rent a PO Box in Winston, but we stopped that, too.
However, the rescission form simply wants the mailing info, not the facility location, so that's what I put.
It is the right permit number to close out. We are still making paint here at the High Point location and we need
our permits!
Hope this helps. If I need to redo the form, let me know! Please let me know if you have any additional
questions.
Thanks,
Nancy Gallagher

Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal
Akzo Nobel Coatings Incorporated
COC Number NCG090021
Guilford County
In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG090000
the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued General Permit. This permit is
reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143=215.1 and the Memorandum of
Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October
15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).
The following information is included with your permit package:
• A new Certificate of Coverage (COC)
• A copy of General Permit NCG090000
• A copy of the Technical Bulletin for the General Permit
• Two copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form
• Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations for discharge
controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself
with all the changes in the reissued permit. Your facility has six (6) months from the time of receipt of the
permit to update your current SPPP to reflect all new permit requirements.
The first sample period of your permit begins January 1, 2013. Your facility must sample a "measureable
storm event" beginning during the periods beginning January 1 and July 1 of every year (or, if applicable,
report "No Flow," as outlined in Part III, Section E). Also, please note that Tier 3 Actions in Part II of your
permit are triggered by benchmark exceedances on four occasions beginning on the effective date of this
permit and do not count prior exceedances.
The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last COC was issued are noted either in the
Draft Permit Fact Sheet that accompanied the public notice (http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/current-
notices), or in the Response to Comments / Summary of Changes and Technical Bulletin documents that are
posted on the Stormwater Permitting Unit's website with the new General Permit. Please visit
http://Portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/npdessw (click on 'General Permits' tab) to review that information
for your specific General Permit carefully.

Some of the changes include:
• Part 11:
• 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 (0&G) has been replaced by the parameter
Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) for vehicle maintenance areas, and in some cases, other
analytical monitoring requirements.
• Sections 6, 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 [phone].
