A tour was conducted of the facility, observing the stormwater conveyances and outfalis and site conditions. During the visit, the SPPP manual was reviewed, operational activities and existing stormwater exposures were discussed. Permit requirements were also reviewed as pertaining to the most recent permit version, dated August 1, 20W At the time of the inspection the site was found to be in compliance with the permit. The inspector noted that the facility appeared to maintain good housekeeping practices and records were found to be in good order. Two noteworthy items were indicated during the visit: 1. Retail chemical products in metal buckets were being stored outside without protection from weather. These items should be stored under roof or otherwise protected. 2. A stormwater ditch along the eastern boundary of the property required some cleanout and maintenance to prevent erosion.

I am well pleased with the way that the wash and storm water management system is being operated at that location. For all practical purposes, after treatment to reduce solids, all of the wash water and most of the storm water goes into the mix.

SCM's Hendersonville Plant is doing an exemplary job of managing wash and storm water. I would recommend that the accumulated debris in the diesel fuel secondary cantainment structure be removed. Should diesel fuel ever be lost, the cleanup contractor would rather not have to deal with oil soaked sticks and leaves. The Hendersonville Plant has three old concrete settling basins which receive some storm water from the east side of the yard. I recommend that the accumutated sediment in these basins be removed to improve their ability to treat stormwater.
