Recycled asphalt, sand, gravel are stored on -site for use, along with chemicals used for asphalt production. The plant also will use a small percentage of recycled asphalt shingles (to be tested/crushed offsite). There was some citizen concern re. the recycled asphalt shingles - DWQ does not expect adverse impacts to water quality due to stormwater from the recycled asphalt shingles, with the small percentage and crushing performed off -site. DWQ does have several recommendations for the site (some of which were stated previously): 1) The SWPPP should be reviewed and errors corrected. 2) The site plan/drainage should be improved, with outfalls clearly noted (and drainage throughout the site updated and noted). 3) DWQ recommends better communication/employee training (DWQ did not see the annual training noted). 4) Secondary containment should be provided for the fuel tank. 5) The bermed areas should be stabilized (to prevent loss of sediment to the tributary to Mud Creek). Because a rain event occurred during the time of inspection - it was noted that the outfall near the unnamed tributary (south side) likely needs to be enlarged. It provided little to no detention for rainfall events. This should be re-evaluated. No sand dipping is performed by the facility (a letter from the DWQ indicated this was done under prior ownership). No sand dipping should be performed again without first contacting AROIDWQ (Jon indicated that this was highly unlikely).

The site plan and drainage areas should be updated, as it was somewhat unclear. DWQ also suggests that the stormwater outfalls be designated (as Stormwater Disharge Outfall 01, 02, etc. - SDO-01, SDO-02) - and this designation remain consistent. Although the employee training program is documented - DWQ suggests the corporate environmental coordinator visit the site at least annually and go over the plan, good housekeeping, sample locations, etc. (it was unclear if the employee training had been completed by necessary parties at the site). Secondary containment should be provided around the fuel tank area (please submit a schedule of compliance for this).

Comment: No routine vehicle maintainance is conducted on -site. Reason for Visit: Routine Analytical monitoring for asphalt activities only. Analytical monitoring should be done in conjunction with qualitative monitoring.

Comment: The illicit discharge certification should be signed (it appears updated but should be signed). Outfalls were observed (and after a rain event). Discharge was noted from the outfall south of the property (near the unnamed tributary to mud creek); no discharge was noted from the outfall to Mud Creek after the rain event. ■000 DD■D Page: 4 Wilson, Susan A From: Van Medlock [van.medlock@rogersgroupinc.com] Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2012 4:42 PM To: Wilson, Susan A Cc: Jonathan Parton; David Wilson Subject: Ralph Rogers & Company - Hendersonville Asphalt Attachments: SiteMap2012-1.pdf Susan, Rogers is in receipt of your inspection report dated August 14, 2012, related to our above referenced facility.

General Statute 143-215.108(o, to expand its asphalt plant on Mud Creek one mile north of Hendersonville. This expansion will allow the recycling of old shingles at the facility. We, as a community, advocate recycling whenever possible, including the recycling of used roof shingles. However, asphalt recycling must be properly managed and monitored to.avoid serious health and.environmental.hazar.ds, including fire, air pollution, and water pollution. Old asphalt. shingles- especially those manufactured' before 1990, may contain asbestos, a mineral that causes Iung disorders and cancer, as well as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAmany, of.which,arq hazardous. If not handled properly, used shingles can release these hazardous substarices into the air, nearby water sources, and adjacent roads. If Rogers Group is allowed to recycle shingles, during rainstorms hazardous chemicals and metals can be washed into Mud Creek (a principal tributary of the French Broad River), can enter the ground water, and can spill onto roadways surrounding the asphalt plant, where they will be kicked into the air by trucks and other vehicles at the plant. These operations pose serious health risks to local residents. To a•,n, d } hal vielations of the fect-1,41 Water Acr. f(-deral Clean Air Act. _and local fire regulations, the Rogers Group plant should be required to do the following before the Division of Air Quality (DAQ) issues a permit to expand the facility: (1) Completely enclose its operations, including the truck loading and unloading areas, used asphalt piles, and asphalt processing areas (2) Submit effective and complete plans for controlling dust, odors, and water runoff. In addition,. DAQ shquW-.be, required two do the following:.; (1) Con duct. comprehensive periodic inspections of the,plarit's facilities. (2) Monitor storm water discharges, particulate emissions, and odors at the plant. As you know from previous complaints and correspondence, residents in our community already suffer from noxious odors, airborne particulate matter, and late - Charles Mason, GHA President president@grimesdale.org (828) 692-2185 r Letter to Paul K. Moller front the Grinzesdale Homes Association, 5 July 2012 Page 2 of 2 night noises from the Rogers Group asphalt plant. We sincerely hope that DAQ will not exacerbate our woes by allowing this plant to add asbestos and PAHs to its toxic emissions through a inismanaged or poorly monitored shingle -recycling operation. We implore you to require the .necessary safeguards listed above before you issue a permit for this facility expansion.

The removed sand would be placed directly into dump trucks, thereby avoiding double handling, for subsequent use in your asphalt mix. Based upon past experience you propose dip sand from a length of stream of less than 150 feet and to disturb less than one acre of land. I have made inquiries and have determined that the Division of water Quality does not regulate the proposed activity_ The answer would be different if you placed the dipped sand on the ground before placing it in trucks for transportation to your asphalt plant or if you dipped sand from a length of Mud Creek exceeding 150 linear feet. Therefore, as far as the Division of Water Quality is concerned, you may use a track hoe to dip sand from Mud.Creek at any one of the locations shown to me and place the dipped sand directly into dump trucks so long as no Stream Standards violations for turbidity occur and you do not effect more than 150 linear feet of stream.

I would suggest that you contact Mr. Bill Beck with the Land Quality Section, to determine if the,proposed-activity requires a State Mining Permit. Mr. Beck may -be reached at the same phone number as you use to reach me. I have previously discussed similar projects with Mr. Dave Baker with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Mr. Baker says his Agency does not regulate the proposed activity so long as you go directly from the track hoe to the trucks and do not double handle the material. You asked me to include a statement in this letter as to whether or not dipping sand from Mud Creek would do damage to the stream. The damage to Mud Creek was done when the sand and clay was -originally deposited thereby smothering the rocky stream bottom. Limited removal of that sand and clay will have little to no adverse impact on the stream. Please do not hesitate to call me at 828-251-6208 should you need to discuss this matter further.

Alpha lalvlronme-wal Management Chapfar 3--Activity-Spocilic Suijrce Control BAH's 3.5 BMPs FOR LOADING AND UNLOADING MATERIALS Loading/unloading opefatlons usually take place outside on docks or tarntinals. Materials spilled, leaked, or lost duruig loading/unloading may collect in the soil or on otfter surfaces and be carried away by rainfall runoff or when the area is cleaned. Rainfall may wash off pollutants from machinery used to unload or load materials. The following questions are designed to help you' find sources of storm water contamination from loading and unloading materials and choose BMPs to reduce or eliminate those sources. Pleading this section can start you on the road to aliminatiog, reducing, or recycling pollutants that otherwise may contaminate storrn water. Also refer to the ISMP' on Loading and Unloading by Air Pressure or Vacuum in Section 4.2. Q. Are tank trucks and material delivQry vehicles located where spills or leaks can be contained? Loading/unloading equipment and vehicles should be located so that leaks can be contained in existing containment and flow diversion systems. Q. Is loading/unloading equipment checked regularly for leaks? Check vehicles and equipment regularly for leaks, and fix any leaks promptly. Common areas for leaks are valves, pumps, flanges, and connections. Look for dust or fumes. These are signs that material is being lost during unloading/loading operations. LOADING AND UNLOADING ACTIvrl-IES THAT CAN CONTAMINATE .STORM WATER: • Puntpino of liquids ar Qases fronti barge, truck or rail car �to;a storage facility or vice :versa. • Pneumatic transfer of dry,::: chemicals to or from the1oading arid unloading vehicles::,.``: • Transfer by rinechanical "conveyor:, - systems Transfer of bags,`boxesj:-drums, or other containers by' fbrklift, trucks, or other material handling equipment Q. Are loadin(p'unioaclincg clocks or areas covered to prevent exposure to rainfall? Covering loading and unloading areas, such as building overhangs at loading docks, can reduce exposure of materials, vehicles, and equipment to rain. Q. Are loading/unloading areas designed to prevent storm water funon? Runon is storm water created from other areas that flows or "runs on" to your property or site. Runon flowing across loading/unloading areas can wash contaminants into storm drains. Runon can be minimized by: • Grading, berrning, or curbing the area around the loading area to direct ninon away from the area • Positioning roof down spouts so storm water is directed away from loading sites and equipment and preferably to a grassy or vegetated area where the storrn water can soak into the ground. September 1992 3-15 Chapter 3—Activity-Spdcific Source Control BhfPs I SUMMARY OF LOADING/UNLOADING OPERATIONS SMPs • Contain leaks during transfer. • Check equipment requlafly, for leaks. • Limit exposure'of inaterial to rainfall. • Prevent storm: Watpr'runon.' 3-16 September 1992 Chamor 3—Activity-Si)ocitic Sowcp Control BAfYs 3.6 BMPs FOR LIQUID STORAGE IN ABOVE -GROUND TANKS Accidental releases of chemicals from above -ground liquid storage tanks can contamkiate storm water with many different pollutants. Materials spilled, leaked, or lost from storage tanks may accumulate in soils or on other surfaces and be carried away by rainfall ninoff. The followiltg questions can help YOU find sources of storm water contamination from above -ground storage tanks and select BMPs to reduce or eliminate those sources. Also refer of the BMPs listed al Section 4.2 on exposure minimization and Section 4.3 on expasuro mitigation for more information. Q. Do storage tanks contain iiqui(f hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or oil? Storage of oil and hazardous materials must rneet specific standards set by Federal and State laws. These standards include SPCC glans, secondary containment, installation, integrity and leak detection monitoring, and emergency preparedness plans. Federal regulations set specific standards for preventing ninon anti collecting runoff from llaZardoUS waste storage, disposal, or treatment areas. These standards apply to container storage areas and other areas used to store, treat, or dispose of hazardous waste. If the collected storm water is a hazardous waste, it must be managed as a hazardous waste in accordance with all applicable State and Federal environmental regulations. States inay also have THE MOST COMMON CAUSES OF UNINTENTIONAL RELEASES FROM - TANKS: • External corrosion and structural failure Spills and overfills due to operator error failure of piping systurns (pipes, pumps, flanges, t:ouplirtgs; hoses, and valves) • Leaks -or spills during pumping of liquids or gases from barges, trucks, or rail cars to a storage facility or vice versa standards about controlling runon and runoff from hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal areas. To find out more about storage requirements, call the loll -free EPA I{CRA hotline at 1-$00-424-9346 or contact your State hazardous waste management agency. Q. Are operators trained in correct operating procedures and safety activities? Well -trained employees can reduce human errors that load to accidental releases or spills, Q. Do you have safeguards against accidental releases?, Engineered safeguards can help prevent operator errors that may cause the accidental release of pollutants. Safeguards include: • Overflow protection devices on tank systems to warn tlio operator or to automatically shut down transfer pumps when the tank reaches full capacity • Protective guards around tanks and piping to prevent vehicle or forklift damage • Clearly tagging or labeling of valves to reduce human error. September 1992 3-17 Chspldr 3—Activity-Spdcific Soured CUnffOl B IPS Q. Are the tank systems inspected and is tank intocdrity tested repularly7 Visually inspect the tank system to identify problem areas before they lead to a release. Correct any problems or potential problems as soon as possible. An audit of a newly installed tank system by a registered and specially trained professional engineer can identify and correct potential problems such as loose fittings, poor welding, and improper or poorly fitted gaskets. After installation, have operators visually inspect the tank system on a routine basis. Areas to inspect include tank foundations, connections, coatings, tank walls, and the piping system. Look for corrosion, leaks, straining of tank support structures from leaks, cracks, scratches in protective coatings, or other physical damage that may weaken the tank system. Integrity testing should be done periodically by a qualified professional. Q. Are tanks permed or surrounded by a secondary containment system? A secondary containment system around both permanent and temporary tanks allows leaks to be more easily detected and contains spills or leaks. Methods include berms, dikes, liners, vaults, and double -walled tanks. See Chapter 4 for additional information on containment and spill control. 3-1 B September 1992 Chdptor 3—Activity-Specific SMArcv Ccwitrol BAfPs 3.8 BMPs FOR OUTSIDE STORAGE OF RAW MATERIALS, BY-PRODUCTS, OR FINISHED PRODUCTS Raw materials, by-products. finished products. containers, and material storage,areas exposed to rain and/or runoff can pollute storm water. Storm water can become contaminated by a wide range of contaminants (e.g., metals, oil, and grease) when solid materials wash off or dissolve atito water, or by spills or leaks. The following questions are designed to help you identify potential sources of storm water contamination and select BMPs that can reduce or eliminate those sources. Beading this section can help you eliminate or reduce pollutants that otherwise may contaminate storm water. Q. Are materials protected from rainfall, runon, and runoff? The best way to avoid contaminating storm water from outside material storage areas is to prevent storm water runon or rain from coming in contact with tha materials. This can he done by: • Storing the material indoors • Covering the area with a roof • Coverino the material with a temporary covering made of polyethylene, polyurethane, polypropylene, or Hypalon. • Minimizing storm water runon by enclosinU the area or building a berm around the area.

First, flow diversion structures, called storm water conveyances, may be used to channel storm water away from industrial areas so that pollutots da not mix with the storm water. Second, they also may be used to carry pollutants directly to a treatment facility. This section briefly describes flow diversion as a f3MP for industrial storm water. September 1992 4-3 chapter 4—Situ Slrucilic Inrhrstrial Storm Watur BAIPs Graded Areas and Pavement What Is It 1 Land surfaces can he graded or uraded and paved so that storm water runoff is directed away from industrial activity areas. The slope of tfta grade allows the runoff to flow, hnt limits the runoff tran washino over areas that may be contaminated Willi pollutants. Like conveyances and dikes, graded areas can prevent runoff from contacting industrial areas and becoming comarninated with pollutants froin tlsese areas. Gradin❑ can be a permanent Of temporary contra[ measure:. When and Where to Use It Grading land surfaces is appropriate for any industrial site that has outdoor activities that may contaminate storm water runoff, such as parkino lots or outdoor storage areas. Figure 4.3 illustrates the use of graded pavement in preventing runoff from washing over a service station site. Grading is often used with other practices, such as coverings, buffer zones, and other practices to reduce the runoff velocity and provide infiltration of the uncontaminated runoff, or to direct pollutant runoff to storm water treatment facilities. What to Consider When designing graded areas and pavement, both control and containment of runoff flows should be considered. The grading should control the uncontaminated flow by diverting it around areas September 1992 4-9 Chapter 4—.Sire-spec hidustria! Storm Watar BA1P5 that may have pollutants. The UradinU should also contain the contarninated flows or divert them to treatment facilities. When regradinU and pavinU an industrial area, the use of concrete pavinU instead of asphalt should be considered. This is especially important in potential spill sites or hazardous maturia,l storage areas. Asphalt absorbs organic pollutants and can be slowly dissolved by some fluids, thus becoming a possible source of contaminants itself. This control measure should be used with a cover, such as a roof, in areas where contaminants are of concern (see Covering HMP) so that rain or snow does riot fall on the area and wash ilia contaminants down slope. Inspect paving regularly for cracks that may allow contaminants to seep into the Around. Also, check to make sure that the drains receiving the storm water flow from the paved area remain unclogged with sediment or other debris so that low areas do not flood and wash over the areas where the contaminants may be. Advantages of Graded Areas and Pavement • Is effective in limiting storm water contact with contaminants • Is relatively inexpensive and easily implemented Disadvantages of Graded Areas and Pavement e May be uneconomical to regrade and resurface large areas • May not be effective during heavy precipitation 4-10 September 1992 Chaptdr 4—Sr(d-SPd'-rXC hidusrrra! Slurr►t Wafar QhfPs 4.2 EXPOSURE MINIMIZATION PRACTICES By eliminatino or minimizino the possibility of storm water corning into contact with pollutants, facilities can eliminate or minimize the contamination of storm water discharges associated with their industrial activity. As a result, fewer materials will be carried away by storm water runoff, the costs of collecting and treating contaminated storm water will be docreased, and safety and environmental liabilities that result from spills and leaks will be reduced. Completely eliminating the exposure of materials to storm water is not always possible, however. For many industrial facilities, enclosure of facility grounds is not technologically or economically possible. Therefore, this section describes several simple and inexpensive structural and nonstructural BlVPs that a facility can use to minimize the exposure of materials to storm water. Containing spills is one of the primary methods of minimizing exposure of contaminants to storm water runoff. Spill containment is used for enclosing any drips, overflows, leaks, or other liquid material releases, as well as for isolating and keeping pollutant spills away from storm water runoff. There are numerous spill containment methods, ranging front large structural barriers to simple, small drip pans. The benefits of each of these practices vary based on cost, need for rnainlenance, and size of the spill they are designed to control. This section describes several containment methods, including: • Containment Diking • Curbing • Drip Pans • Catch Basins • Sumps. Other practices commonly used to minirnize exposure of contaminants are aiso discussed, including the following: • Covering • Vehicle Positioning • I_oadino and Unloading by Air Pressure or Vacuum. September 1992 4-11 Chaprot d —sire-specific rrrJustria/ srurnr werur trh'rPs Containmetit Diking What Is It , Containment dikes are temporary or permanent earth or concrete berms or retaininu walls that are designed to hold spills. Diking, one of the most common types of containment, is an effective method of pollution prevention for above -ground liquid storage tanks and rail car or tank truck loading and unloading areas. Diking can provide one of the best protective measures against the contamination of storm water because it surrounds the area of concern and holds the spill, keeping spill materials separated from the storm water outside of the diked area.

What to Consider Containment dikes should be large enough to hold an amount equal to the largest single storage tank at the particular facility plus the volume of rainfall. For rail car and tank truck loading and unloading operations, the diked area should be capable of holding an amount equal to any single 4-12 September 1992 Chaptoe 4—Silu-Spacific huhishial Sturrn Wd1W BAfPs tank truck cornpar-Imerlt. Materials used to construct the dike should be stronU urrouUll to safUly hold spilled materials. The materials used usually depend on what is available unsite and tile substance to be contained, and may consist of earth (i.e., soil or clay), concrete, synthetic materials (liners), metal, or other in+pervious materials. In general, stronU acids and bases may react with metal containers, concrete, and some plastics, so where spills may consist of these substances, other alternatives should be considered. Some of the more reactive owanic chemicals may also need to be contained with special liners. If there are any questions about storing chemicals in certain dikes because of their construction materials, refer to the: Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs). Containment dikes may need to be designed with impervious materials to prevent leaking or contamination of storm water, surface, and ground water supplies. Similarly, uncontrolled overflows from diked areas containing spilled materials or contaminated storm water should be prevented to protect nearby surface waters or ground waters. Therefore, dikes should have either pumping systems (see Sumps f3MP) or vacuum trucks available to remove the spilled materials. When evaluating the performance of the contairurient system, you should pay special attention to the overflow system, since it is often the source of uncontrolled leaks. if overflow systems do not exist, accumulated swan water should be released periodically. Contaminated storm water should be treated prior to release. Mechanical parts, such as punips or even manual systems (e.g., slide gates, stopcock valves), may require regular cleaning and maintenance. When considering containment diking as a HMP, you should consult local authorities about any regulations governing construction of such structures to comply with local and State requirements. Facilities located in a flood plain should contact their local flood control authority to ensure that construction of the dikes is permitted. Inspections of containment dikes should be conducted during or after significant storms or spills to check for washouts or overflows. In addition, regular checks of containment dikes (i.e., testing to ensure that dikes are capable of holding spills) is recommended. Soil dikes stay need to be inspected on a more frequent basis. Changes in vegetation, inability of the structure to retain storm water dike erosion, or soggy areas indicate problems with the dike's structure. Damaged -areas should be patched and stabilized immediately, where necessary. Earthen dikes may redtrire special raintenance of vegetation, such as mowing and irrigation. Advantages of Containment Diking • Contains spills, leaks, and other releases and prevent them front flowing Into rutloff conveyances, nearby streams, or underground water supplies • Permits materials collected in dikes to be recycled • Is a common industry practice for storage tanks and already required for certain chemicals Disadvantages of Containment Diking • May be too expensive for some smaller facilities • Requires maintenance • Could collect contaminated storm water, possibly resulting in infiltration of storm water to ground water f 1. h Chaptui 4--Situ-Spucilic hidustrial Sturm Wdtar f AIPs what Is It .1 Like containment diking, curbing is a barrier that surrounds an area of concern, Curbing functions in a similar way to prevent spills, leaks, etc. from being released to the environment by routing runoff to treatment or control areas. 1-he temis curbing and diking are sornetirnes used interchangeably. Because curbing is usually small-scale, it cannot contain large spills like diking can, however, curbing is cornmon at many facilities in small areas where handling and transferrintt liquid materials occur. FIGURE 4.5 CURBING AROUND DRUM STORAGE AREA When and Where to Use It Curbing can be used at all industrial facilities. It is particularly useful in areas where Iiiluid Materials are transferred and as a storm water runoff control. As with diking, common materials for curbing include earth, concrete, synthetic materials, metal, or other impenetrable materials. Asphalt is also a cornmon material used ifl Curbing. What to Consider For maximum efficiency of curbing, spilled materials should be removed immediately, to allow space for future spills. Curbs should have pumping systems, rather than drainage systems, for collecting spilled materials. Manual or mechanical methods, such as those provided by sump systems (see Sump BMf ), can be used to remove the material. Curbing systems should be maintained through curb repair (patching and replacement). 4-14 c..,�o.,,►,o. , n47 Chaptrr 4—Siru-Spvc-ific Pidusrrial Storm Wzito-r Bh11's When using curbing for runoff control, facilities should protect the bean by limiting traffic and installing reinforced berms in areas of concern. Spills of materials that are stored within a curbed area can be tracked Outside of that area when personnel and equipment leave the area. This tracking can be minimized by prading within the curbing to direct the spilled materials to a down -slope side of tho curbing. This will keep the materials away front personnel and equipment that Bass through the area. It will also allow tite materials to accumulate in one area making cleanup much easier. Inspections should also be conducted 112gfgre forecasted rainfall events and inunudiately after storm events. It spilled or leaked materials are observed, cleanup should start inmfudiately. This will prevent overflows and/or contamination of storm water runoff. In addition, prompt cleanup of materials will prevent dilution by rainwater, which can adversely affect recycling opportunities. Inspection of curbed areas should be conducted regularly, to clear clogging debeis. Because curbing is sized to contain small spill volumes, maintenance should also be conducted frequently to prevent overflow of any spilled materials. Advantages of Curbing • Is an excellent method to control runoti • Is inexpensive • Is easily installed - Materials spilled within curbed areas can be recycled • Exists as a common industry practice Disadvantages of Curbi119 • is not effective for holding large spills • May require more maintenance than dikintl September 1992 4-15 Chaplor 4—S1'1d-Spaci6c Industrial Storm Watdr Bn?f s Drip Pans l What Are Thay Drip pans are small depressions or pans used to contain very small volumes of leaks, drips, and spills that occur at a facility. Drip pans can be depressions in concrete, asphalt, Or Other impenetrable materials or they can be made of rnetals, plastic, or any material that does not roact with the dripped chemicals. Drip pans can be temporary or permanent. Drip pans are used to catch drips from valves, pipes, etc. so that the iaterials or chemicals can be cleaned up easily or recycled before they can contarninate storm water. Although leaks and drips should be repaired and eliminated as part of a preventive maintenance program, drip pans can provide a temporary solution where repair or replacement must be delayed. In addition, drip pans can be an added safeguard when they ate positioned beneath areas where leaks and drips m4y occur. Use Drip Pans for leaking Equipment Use Drip Pans in loading and Unloading Areas FIGURE 4.6 USES FOR DRIP PANS (Modified from Washington State, 1992) When and Where to Use Them Drip pans can be used at any industry where valves and pipilig are present and the potential for small volume leakage and dripping exist. 4-16 September 1992 Chaprur 4—Sifu-Spncific krthisrfial Srorrrr Wafur BAfPs WHet to Consider I When using drip pans, consider the location of the drip pan, weather conditions, tfre type of material to be used for the drip pan, and flow it will he cleaned. The location of the drip pan is important. Because drip pans must be inspected and cleaned frequently, they most be easy to reach and remove. _ In addition, take special card to avoid placing drip pans in precarious positions such as next to walkways, on uneven pavernentlground, or sitting on pipelines. Drip pans in these locations are easily overturned and may present a safety Hazard, as well as an environmental hazard. Weather conditions are also important factors. Heavy winds and rainfall move or dar7+ape drip pans because of their small size and their light weight (if not built-in). To prevent this, Secure the pans by installing or anchoring them. Drip pans may be placed on platforms or behind wind blocks or tied down. For drip pans to be effective, employees must pay attention to the pans and empty them when they are nearly full. Because of their small holding capacities, drip pans will easily overflow if not emptied. Also, recycling efforts can be affected if storm water accumulates in drip pans and dilutes the spilled material. It is important to have clearly specified and easily followed practices of reuselrecycle and/or disposal, especially the disposal of hazardous materials. Many facilities dump the drip pan contents into a nearby larger voluine storage container and periodically recycle the contents of the storage container. In addition, frequent inspection of the drip pans is necessary due to the possibility of leaks in the pan itself or in piping or valves that may occur randomly or irregular slow drips that may increase in volume. Conduct inspections before forecasted rainfall events to remove accumulated materials and immediately after storm events to empty storrrt water accumulations. Advantages of Drip Parts • Are inexpensive • Are easily installed and simple to operate • Allow for reuse/recycle of collected material • Empty or discarded containers may be retired as drip pans Disadvantages of Drip Pans • Contain small volumes only • Must be inspected and cleaned frequently • Must be secured during poor weather conditions • Contents may be disposed of improperly unless facility personnel are t disposal methods September 1992 4-17 Chsp(w 4—Sire-SpdGific IiWUStfiBl SA)MI W.jrur BA11's coveri(q) 1W:1at is !t_, Covering is the partial or total physical enclosure of rnaterials, e(ltrit)nlent, process operations, or activities. Covering certain areas or activities prevents storm water from coming into contact with potential pollutants and reduces material loss from wind blowing. Tarpaulins, plastic sheetirrg, roofs, buildings, and other enclosures are examples of covering that are effective in preventing storm water contamination. Covering can be temporary or peinianent. When and Where to Use It Covering is appropriate for outdoor material storage piles (e.t)., stockpiles of dry materials, U(avel, sand, compost, sawdust, wood Chips, de-icing salt, and building materials) and areas where liquids and solids in containers are stored or transferred. Although it May be too expensive to cover or enclose all industrial activities, cover Ilion -risk areas (identified durino the storm water pollutant source identification). For example, cover chernical preparation areas, vehicle maintenance areas, areas where chemically treated products are stored, and areas where salts are stored, If covering or enclosing the entire activity is not possible, the high -risk part of the activity can often be separated from other processes and covered. Another option that reduces the cost of building a complete enclosure is to build a roof over the activity. A roof may also eliminate the need for ventilation and lighting systems (Washington State, 1992). What to Consider Evaluate the strength and longevity of the covering, as well as its compatibility with the material or activity being enclosed. When desionino an enclosure, consider access to materials, their handling, and transfer. Materials that pose environmental arid safety dangers because they are radioactive, biological, flammable, explosive, or reactive require special VUntllatiOn Lind tenlpl:ratnitl considerations. Covering alone may not protect exposed materials from storm water contact. Place the material on an elevated, impermeable surface or build curbing around the outside of the materials to prevent problems from runon of uncontaminated storm water from adjacent areas. Frequently inspect covering, such as tarpaulins, for rips, tholes, and general wear. Anchor the covering with stakes, tie -down ropes, large rocks, tires, or other easily available Heavy°objects. Practicing proper materials management within an enclosure or underneath a covered area is essential. For example, floor drainage within an enclosure should he properly designed and connected to the wastewater sewer where appropriate and allowed. If connection to an offsite wastewater sewer is considered, the local Publicly Owned Treatment Works (POTW) should be consulted to find out if there are any pretreatment requirements or restrictions that rtutst be followed. 4-22 September 1992 Small Chemical Storage Area With Cwbina and Cover Raw Material Sloraije COVC(ed Will) Tarpaulin Covered Area for flaw Materials 7-j Enclosed Area for Storage of Raw Materials or Chemicals Coveted Area for Loadinj) and tjnloa(jijjU FIGURE 4.7 EXAMPLE COVERING FOR INDUSTRIAL ACTIVITIES (Modified from Washington State, 1992; Salt Institute, 1987) September 1992 - 4-23 Chapter 4—Site-Specific Industrial Storm Water QMPs Advantages of Covering • Is simple and effective • Is commonly inexpensive Disadvantages of Covering • Requires frequent inspection • May pose health or safety problems if enclosure is built over certain activities 4-24 September 1992 Clrap(w 4—Situ-Spuci>ic li)ch,striu! 5turrrr Wdt6►r BAI i yollicie Positioning - — -- 1 Wltiat is It Vehicle positionino is the practice of locatino trucks or rail cars while transfer,ing materials to prevent spills of materials onto the oround surface, which may then contarninate storm water runoff. Vehicle positioning is a simple and effective method of material spill prevention and yet it is commonly overlooked. When and Where to Use It Vehicle positioning can be used at all types of industrial facilities. This practice is appropriate for any area where materials are transferred from or to vehicles, such as loading and unloading areas, storage areas, and material transfer areas. Use vehicle positioning in conjunction with other practices such as covering, sumps, drip pans, or loadino and unloading by air pressure or vacuum where chemical spills are of concern. What to Consider The purpose of vehicle positioning is to locate vehicles in a stable and appropriate position to prevent problems, such as spills resulting from broken material storage containers, spills caused by vehicle movement during materials transfer activities, and spills caused by improperly located vehicles. Vehicles should also be positioned near containment or flow diversion systems to collect unexpected spills from leaks in transfer lines or connections. The following activities are included in this practice: • Constructing walls that help in positioning, the vehicles • Positioruno vehicle either over a drain or on a sloped surface -that drains to a containment structure • Outlining required vehicle positions on the pavement • Using wheel guards or wheel blocks • Posting signs requiring the use of emergency brakes • Requiring vehicles to shut off engines dwino materials transfer activities. Advantages of Vehicle Positioning • Is inexpensive • Is easy and effective Disadvantages of Vehicle Positioning • May require redesign of loading and unloading areas September 1992 4-25 Chapter 4--Site-Specific Industrial Storrrr Water BAWs 4.3 MITIGATIVE PRACTICES Mitigation involves cleaning up or recovering a substance after it has been released or spilled to reduce the potential impact of a spill before it reaches the environment. Therefore, pollution mitigation is a second line of defense where pollution prevention practices have failed or are impractical. Because spills cannot always be avoided at industrial sites, it is necessary to plan for these events and to design proper response procedures. This section discusses mitio ative BMPS to avoid contamination of storm water. Most of the mitigative practices discussed are simple and should be incorporated in your facility's good housekeeping and spill response plans. The mitigation practices discussed include manual cleanup methods, such as sweeping and shoveling, mechanical cleanup by excavation or vacuuming, and cleanup with sorbents and gels. Facilities are cautioned that spills of certain toxic and hazardous substances and their cleanup may be covered under regulations, including those imposed under the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA), the Comprehensive Environmental Responsibility. Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act IRCRA). 4-28 September 1992 Chapter 4—Site-Specific Industrial Sfurrrr Water Bh?Ps Sweeping What Is It Sweeping with brooms, squaegees, or other mechanical devices is used to remove small quantities of dry chemicals and dry solids from areas that are exposed to precipitation or storm water runoff. These areas may include dust or contaminant covered bags, drums containing remainino materials on their lids, areas housing enclosed or covered materials, and spills of dry chemicals and dry solids in locations on the industrial site. Cleaning by sweeping with brooms is a low cost practice that can be performed by all employees and requires no special equipment or training. When and Where to Use It Sweeping can be used at many material handling areas and process areas in all types of industrial facilities. Timing is an important consideration for all mitigative practices. To be effective as a storm water control, cleanup must take place before rainfall or contact with storm water runoff or before an outside area is hosed down. Do not limit your cleanup activities to those outside activities that are exposed to rainfall. In many cases, tracking of materials to the outside frorn areas that are enclosed or covered (e.g., on shoes) may also occur. What to Consider Store brooms appropriately and do not expose them to precipitation. In addition, rules of compatibility also apply. Do not use the same broom to clean up two chemicals that are incompatible. Determine the compatibility between the brooms themselves and the chemical of concern before using this practice. In some instances, chemicals should be vacuumed instead of swept. Be sure that swept material is disposed of properly. Advantages of Sweeping • Is inexpensive • Requires no special training • Provides recycling opportunities Disadvantages of Sweeping • Is a labor-intensive practice • Is limited to small releases of dry materials September 1992 4-29 Chapter 4- Site -Specific Industrial Sforrn Wafer BAfPs Shoveling What fs Et Shoveling is another manual cleanup method that is simple and low in cost. Generally, shoveling can be used to remove larger quantities of dry chemicals anti dry solids, as well as to remove wetter solids and sludge. Shoveling is also useful in removing accumulated materials from sites not accessible by mechanical cleanup methods. EW:h:en:�andW�b,,,�Use t Shoveling can be used at any facility. Shoveling provides an added advantage over sweeping because cleanup methods are not limited to dry materials. In many cases, accumulated solids and sludges that are in ditches, sumps, or other facility locations can be effectively and quickly removed by shoveling. Shovels can also he used to clean up contaminated snows. Tinning is an important consideration in any mitigative practice. Materials that could contaminate storrn water runoff should be removed before any storm event. What to Consider As with brooms, clean and store shovels properly. Also, consider planning for the transport and disposal or reuse of the shoveled materials. Advantages of Shoveling • Is inexpensive • Provides recycling opportunities • Can remediate larger releases and is effective for dry and wet materials Disadvantages of Shoveling • Is labor-intensive • Is not an appropriate practice for large spills 4-30 September 1992 Chaprur 4—Sife-Sp&cific huhisrlivl Srorrrr wattw B/Ops SorUents What Are They Sorbents are materials that are capable of cleaning up spills through the churnical processes of afjsorption and 412sorption. Sorben- adsorb fan attraction to the outer surface of a material) or phsorb (taken in by the material like sponge) only when they corne io contact with the sorbent materials. The Sorbents must be mixed with a spill or the liquid rnust be grassed through the sorbent. Sorbent materials come in many different forms from particles to loanrs. Often the particles are Bold together in structures called booms, pads, or socks. Sorbents include, but are not limited to, the following: • Common Materials (clays, sawdust, straw, and flyash)—Generally come in small particles that can be thrown onto a spill that is on a surface. The materials Absorb the spill by taking up the liquid. • Polymers (polyurethane and polyolefin)—Corne in the form of spheres, beads, or foarn tablets. These materials At2sorb a chemical spill by taking up the liquid into their open -pore structure. • Activated Carbon ---Comes in a powdered or granular form and can be r;iixed with liquids to remove pollutants. This sorbent works by sorbing the organics to its surface and can be recycled and then reused by a process called regeneration. • "Universal Sorbent Material" —Is a silicate glass foam consisting of rounded particles that can absorb the material. When and Where to Use Them] Sorbents are useful HMPs for facilities with liquid materials onsite. Timing is important for these practices. To be effective as a storm water BMP, cleanup must take place before a rainfall. Sorbents are often used in conjunction with curbing to provide cleanup of small spills within a containment area. "Universal Sorbent Materials" are suitable for use on many compounds including acids, alkalis, alcohols, aldehydes, arsenate, ketones, petroleum products, and chlorinated solvents. Activated carbon is useful for adsorbing many organic compounds. Organics that are diluted in water can be passed through a column that is filled with the activated carbon material to remove the organics, or the activated carbon can be (nixed into the water and can then be filtered out. Polyurethane is good with chemical liquids such as benzene, chlorinated solvents, epicholorhydrin, and phenol. Polyolefin is used to remove organic solvents, such as phenol and various chlorinated solvents. The beads and spheres are usually mixed into a spill by use of a blower and then are skimmed from the top surface by use of an oil boom. More common materials such as clay, sawdust, straw, and fly -ash can be used for a liquid spill on a surface that is relatively impenetrable, and are usually spread over the spill area with shovels. Booms, pads, and socks are also useful in areas where there are small liquid spills or drips or where small amounts of solids may mix with small amounts of storm water runoff. They can function September 1992 4-33 Chapter 4—Site-Specific Industrial Storm Water BAfPr both to absorb the pollutants from the storm water and restrict the movement of a spill. Socks are often used together with curbing to clean up small spills, What to Consider Because sorbents work by a chemical or physical reaction, some sorbents are hatter than others for certain types of spills. Therefore, the use of sorbents requires that personnel know the properties of the spilled material(s) to know which sorbent is appropriate. To be effective, sorbents must adsorb the material spilled but must not react with the spilled material to form IldZariJOUs or toxic substances. Follow the manufacturers' recontmendations. For sorbents to be effective, they must be applied immediately in the release area. The use of sorbent material is generally very simple: the sorbent is added to the area of release, mixed well, and allowed to adsorb or absorb. Many sorbents are not reusable once they have been used. Proper disposal is required. Advantages of Sorbents • Work in water environments (booms and socks) • Offer recycling opportunities (some types of so(bents) Disadvantages of Sorbents • Require a knowledoe of the chemical makeup of a spill (to choose the best sorbent) • Offer no recycling opportunities (some types of sorbents) • May be expensive practice for large sl)ifls • May create disposal problems and increase disposal costs by creating a solid waste and potentially a hazardous waste. 4-34 September 1992 Chapter 4—Site-Specific lodustrial Storm Water BMPs Signs and Labels What Are They Signs and labels identify problem areas or hazardous materials at a facility. Warning signs, often found at industrial facilities, are a good way to suggest caution in certain areas. Siuns and labels can also provide instructions on the use of materials and equipment. Labelling is a good way to organize large amounts of materials, pipes, and equipment, particularly on large sites. Labels tell material type and container contents. Accurate labeling can help facilities to quickly identify the type of material released so facility personnel can respond correctly. Two effective labeling methods include color coding and Department of Transportation iDOTI labeling. Color coding is easily recognized by facility personnel and simply involves painting/coating or applying an adhesive label to the container. Color codes must be consistent throughout the facility to be effective, and signs explaining the color codes should be posted in all areas. DOT requires that labels be prominently displayed on transported hazardous and toxic materials. Labeling required by DOT could be expanded to piping and containers, making it easy to recognize materials that are corrosive, radioactive, reactive, flarnrnable, explosive, or poisonous. FIGURE 4.8 SIGN ON DRUM INDICATING FLAMMABILITY When and Where to Use Them Signs and labels can be used at all types of facilities. Areas where they are particularly useful are material transfer areas, equipment areas, loading and unloading areas, or anywhere information might prevent contaminants from being released to storm water. 4A4 September 1992 Chapter 4—Sifd-Specific hrdustrial Storm Water SA4Ps What to Consider Signs and labels should be visible and easy to read. Useful signs and labels might provide the following information: • Names of facility and regulatory personnel, including emergency phone nunrburs, to contact in case of an accidental discharge, spill, or other emergency • Proper uses of equipment that could cause release of storm water contaminants • Types of chemicals used in high -risk areas • The direction of drainage lines/ditches and their destination {treatment or discharge} • Information on a specific material • Refer to OSHA standards for sizes and numbers of signs required for hazardous material labeling. Hazardous chemicals might be labeled as follows: • Danger • Combustible • Warning r • Poisonous • Caustic • Corrosive • Caution • Volatile • Flammable • Explosive Periodic checks can ensure that signs are still in place and labels are properly attached. Signs and labels should be replaced and repaired as often as necessary. Advantages of Signs and Labels • Are inexpensive and easily used Disadvantages of Signs and Labels • Must be updated and maintained so they are legible Cwnfwmhar 1 QQ) A n Chapter d—Site-Specific 1nwhrslri41 Storm Water BAfPs 4.5 SEDIMENT AND EROSION PREVENTION PRACTICES Any site where soils -are exposed to water, wind or ice can have soil erosion and sudirnentation problems. Erosion is a natural process in which soil and rock material is loosened and removed. Sedimentation occurs when soil particles are suspended in surface runoff or vvind and are deposited in streams and other water bodies. Human activities can accelerate erosion by removing vegetation, compacting or disturbing the soil, changing natural drainage patterns, and by covering the ground with imperineable surfaces (pavement, concrete, buildings). When the land surface is developed or "hardened" in this manner, storm water and snowmelt can not seep into or "infiltrate" the ground. This results in larger amounts of water moving more quickly across a site which can carry more sediment and other pollutants to streams and rivers. EPA's General Permit requires that all industries identify in their Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plans areas that may have a high potential for soil erosion. This includes areas with such heavy activity that plants cannot grow, soil stockpiles, stream banks, steep slopes, construction areas, demolition areas, and any area where the soil is disturbed, denuder! Istripped of plants), and subject to wind and water erosion. EPA further requires that you take steps to limit this erosion. There are seven ways to limit and control sediment and erosion on your site: • Leave as much vegetation (plants) onsite as possible. • Minimize the tirne that soil is exposed. • Prevent runoff from flowing across disturbed areas (divert the flow to vegetated areas). • Stabilizirsg the disturbed soils as soon as possible. • Slow down the runoff flowing across the site. • Provide drainage ways for the increased runoff (use grassy swales rather than concrete drains). • Remove sediment frorn storm water runoff before it leaves the site. Using these measures to control erosion and sedimentation is an important part of storm water management. Selecting the best set of sediment and erosion prevention measures for your industry depends upon tile nature of the activities on your site (i.e., how much construction or land disturbance there is) and other site -specific conditions (soil type, topography, climate, and season). Section 4.5.1 discusses some temporary and permanent ways to stabilize your site. Section 4.5.2 describes more structural ways to control sediment and erosion. In some arid regions, growing vegetation to prevent erosion may be difficult. The local Soil Conservation Service Office or County Extension Office can provide information on any special measures necessary to promote the establishment of vegetation. 4.5.1 Vegetative Practices Preserving existing vegetation or revegetating disturbed soil as soon as possible after construction is the most effective way to control erosion. A vegetation cover reduces erosion potential in four ways: (11 by shielding the soil surface from direct erosive impact of raindrops; 12) by improving September 1992 4-51 Chapter 4—Site-Specific hidoslrial Storrn Water BMP,t the soil's water storage porosity and capacity so more water can infiltrate into the ground; (3) by slowing the runoff and allowing the sedirnem to drop out or deposit; and (4) by physically holding the soil in place with plant roots. Vegetative cover can be grass, trees, shrubs, bark, mulch, or straw. Grasses are thb most common type of cover used for revegetation because they grow quickly, providing erosion protection within days. Other soil stabilization practices such as straw or mulch n ay be used during non -growing seasons to prevent erosion. Newly planted shrubs and trees establish root systems more slowly, so keeping existing ones is a more effective practice. Vegetative and other site stabilization practices can be either temporary or permanent controls. Temporary controls provide a cover for exposed qr disturbed areas for short periods of time or until permanent erosion controls are put in place. Permanent vegetative practices are used when activities that disturb the soil are completed or when erosion is occurring on a site that is otherwise stabilized. The remainder of this section describes the common vegetative practices listed below; • Preservation of Natural Vegetation • Buffer Zones • Stream Bank Stabilization • Mulching, Matting, and Netting • Temporary Seeding • Permanent Seeding and Planting • Sodding • Chemical Stabilization. 4-52 September 1992 Chaplar 4—Site-Specific Irrdr.slrial Sranrr Walur BMPs Preservation of Natural Vegetation [W:hat :1s It The preservation of natural vegetation (existing trees, vines, brushes, and grasses) provides rsatural buffer zones. by preserving stabilized areas, it minimizes erosion potential, protects water quality, and provides aesthetic benefits. This practice is used as a permanent control measure. When and Where to Use It This technique is applicable to all types of sites. Areas where preservinu vegetation can be particularly beneficial are floodplains, wetlands, stream banks, steep slopes, and other areas where erosion controls would be difficult to establish, install, or maintain. What to Consider Preservation of vegetation on a site should be planned before any site disturbance begins. Preservation requires good site management to minimize the impact of construction activities on existing vegetation. Clearly mark the trees to be preserved and protect them from ground disturbances around the base of the tree. Proper maintenance is important to ensure healthy vegetation that can control erosion. Different species, soil types, and climatic conditions will require different maintenance activities such as mowing, fertilizino, liming, irrigation, pruning, and weed and pest control. Some State/local regulations require natural vegetation to be preserved in sensitive areas; consult the appropriate State/local agencies for more information on their regulations. Maintenance should be performed regularly, especially durino construction. Advantages of Preservation of Natural VeUetatiott • Can handle ftioher quantities of storm water runoff than newly seeded areas • Does not require time to establish (i.e., effective irnrnediately) • Increases the filtering capacity beCause the vegetation and root structure are usually denser in preserved natural vegetation than in newly seeded or base areas • Enhances aesthetics • Provides areas for infiltration, reducing the quantity and velocity of storm water runoff • Allows areas where wildlife can remain undisturbed • Provides noise buffers and screens for onsite operations • Usually requires less maintenance (e.g., irrigation, fertilizer) than plar}tino new vegetation Disadvantages of Preservation of Natural Vegetation I • Requires planning to ;reserve and maintain the existing veoetation • May not be cost effective with high land costs • May constrict area available for construction activities September 1992 4-53 Chapter 4—Site-Specific Industrial Storm Wdtar BAIPS 4.

The controls can either be used as perrnanam `or temporary measures. Practices discussed include the following: • Interceptor Dikes and Swales • Pipe Slope Drains • Subsurface Drains • Filter Fanco • Straw Bale Barrier • Brush Barrier • Gravel or Stone Filter Berm • Storm Drain Inlet Protection Sediment Trap' • Temporary Sediment Basin • Outlet Protection • Check Danis • Surface Roughening • Gradient Terraces. September 1992 4.69 Chapter 4—Sita-Specific Industrial Stufm Wafer HMPs Sediment Trap What is It A sediment trap is formed by excavating a pond or by placing an oarthen embankment across a low area or drainage swale. An outlet or spillway is constructed using large stones or aUUreuate to slow the release of runoff- The trap retains the runoff long enough to allow most of the silt to settle out. v Cross -Sutton AA1 Coarse Aggregate �� FIGURE 4.25 TYPICAL_ SEDIMENT TRAP (Modified from Commonwealth of Virginia, 1980) [When and Where to Use It A temporary sediment trap may be used in conjunction with other temporary measures, such as gravel construction entrances, vehicle wash areas, slope drains, diversion (likes and swales, or diversion channels. This device is appropriate for sites with short time schodules. 4-86 September 1992 Chapter 4—Site-Specific Industrial Sloan Wdttsr 6A1Ps What to Consider Sediment traps are suitable for small drainage areas, usually no more than 10 acres, that have no unusual drainage features. The trap should be large enough to allow ilia sedii.nents to settle and should have a capacity to store the collected sediment until it is removed. The volume of storage required depends upon the amount and intensity of expected rainfall and on estimated quantities of sediment in the storm water runoff. Check your Permit to see it it specifies a Minimum storage volume for sediment traps. A sediment trap is effective for approximately 18 months. During this period, the trap should he readily accessible for periodic maintenance and sediment removal. Traps should be inspected after each rainfall anti cleaned when no more than half the lesion volume has been filled with collected sediment, The trap should remain in operation and be properly maintained until the site area is permanently stabilized by vegetation and/or when permanent structures are in place. Advantages of a Sediment Trap • Protects downstream areas from clogging or damage due to sedim • Is inexpensive and sirttple to install • Can simplify the design process by trapping sediment at specific s I`J Disadvantages of a Sediment Trap • Is suitable only for a iirnited area • Is effective only if properly maintained • Will not remove very fine silts and clays • Has a short life span ------------- September 1992 4-87 r + r 7 i .

The site is located near the existing WWTP (a new plan at a new location not too far from the existing site is under construction) for Hendersonville, north of the city proper, off of US HW 25. The area is adjacent~ to Mud Creek and according to the site visit by Roy is 10 to 12' above the normal flow level of Mud Creek, downstream of the WWTP discharge point_ Mud Creek at this location drains a relatively large watershed that includes the urban area of the City. This watershed is one of the CWMTF WQ study areas. The COE evaluated the site in 1988 (according to a copy of a letter we have) and found no wetland issues. I have asked Roy to contact the Asheville office of the Corps and suggest to them that an update of this finding might be in order just to have the determination "current_" Roy has a Dec. 20, 2000 e-mail from Bill Mills stating that TarHeel Paving has applied for a general stormwater permit. To my knowledge, we have not "acted" on that application yet. I do not know the status of any AQ permitting activity. Roy, I and others in the office have received several calls about this facility and the public seems very concerned about this plant and the site. Henderson Co. doesn't have a flood plain ordnance, nor do they have zoning. The proposed site is in an area with industrial/commercial use all around it and since the local jurisdiction has no basis to object to the building of the plant, there doesn't seem to be any regulatory reasons that would prevent placing a plant here. This could change if the local government took some sort of quick "planning/zoning" action, but with the history of Henderson County, we don't expect that to happen. The office waste is apparently being handled by an on -site system approved by the Henderson County Health Dept. I received a call yesterday complaining about the "siting" of the on -site system, but I refereed them to Robert Smith, the Sanitarian Supervisor for the county (the lady already had a call into him). So this proposed facility has some of the characteristics of the Rhodes Brothers plant in Macon County. We are "limited" in our ability to withhold approval of the general permit to the WQ issues associated with the plant. We can suggest/require some control of stormwater, but the siting issues are pretty much beyond our rules. If we can provide any additional information let me or Roy know. Thanks.
