Replace the.,, plastic containment cap on the ammonium hydroxide transfer hose with a metal containment cap. 2. Place the adhesive tank and 55 gallon drum of chemical solution towards the interior of the facility. Ensure that -these products cannot be released outdoors. 3. Clean up the compactor area at Bay # 17 of accumulated adhesive material. In addition, remove trash at Bay #19 and place materials into your compactor. 4. Install a plug in the Dyehouse dumpster since currently, a plug is absent. 5. Implement a structural BMP at the Dyehouse destitching area in order to permanently contain all rinse water within your facility. 6. Add an extra line item to check for oil leaks around the whole facility, as per your Pollutant Prevention and Good Housekeeping Program. Once discovered, Microfibres must clean up residual oil leaks. 7. Increase the frequency of your outdoor clean-up schedule; ensure no free linen is left outside and exposed to rainfall. 8. Update your site map to reflect all current outfalls, facility improvements, and industrial activities areas. In addition, determine the drainage connectivity of Microfibres's stormwater'conveyance system at the unloading dock area, Bays # 27-30. Evaluate and locate SDO's that are characteristic to Microfibres's stormwater runoff. 9. Update the Stormwater Division's contact information on Microfibres's Spill Notification List. 10. Fix leaking.gutters on the northern side of 3811 Kimwell Drive Building. The leaking gutters are causing gulley and reel erosion near 0utfall # 1 B, which is causing off -site sedimentation to receiving waters. 11. Make the building foundation watertight at the Compound Mixing area. Currently, clay residue and ;hydrocarbon sheen are being released to open environment. 12. Clean up residual nylon fibers and trash at the Dyehouse dumpster area. r i Company Representative(s),that participated in inspection: Mr. John Moss Title(s): Director of Engineering r Start of Inspection: 9:15 A.

Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality This is to follow up our meeting and the site visit that was conducted on July 20, 2006 at Microfibres on Kimwell Dr in Winston Salem, NC. After having toured the exterior of the facility last Thursday I wanted to get back to you about your request for No Exposure Certification, At this time we would not recommend this facility for No Exposure Certification. Some of the issues noted during the inspection are: 1. Illicit discharges- The eye wash fountain and second pipe of unknown origin out of the 3760 dye house building must be plumbed into sanitary drains. Additionally an air compressor line was leaking oil onto the ground at the side of POTW building. (Please correct these immediately). 2. Equipment and materials storage outside the 3831 building- Disposal, cover or removal of the scrap metal and miscellaneous machinery behind this building would be necessary. 3. Building 3811- The partially exposed drainage trough to POTW at the ammonia tank where chemicals are loaded through valves. It would be necessary to cover the entire length of this trough to prevent stormwater exposure. 4. Open dumpsters noted around the facility should have covers or lids. At this time the facility does not hold a stormwater permit as required by the Division of Water Quality. The Division thanks you for taking the initiative to correct this issue. Please make application for coverage in the next 30 days for General Permit NCG170000 for stormwater discharges associated with activities classified as SIC 22 Textile Mill Products. The Notice of Intent and permit text can be found at the Division web site. http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms—Documents.htm#stormwaterGP Alternately your facility can make the above recommended changes to qualify for a No Exposure Certification and ask for a reinspection. Which ever route you choose please understand that the illicit discharges should be corrected immediately. Please contact me if I can be of any further assistance.
