A water truck will be used to suppress the production of dust or particulates. 1.3.6 Pollutants Having Reasonable Potential to be Present in Discharge Based on the industrial activities and control methods identified, petroleum products resulting from minor drips and leaks of vehicles and equipment, soil and other naturally -occurring organic materials are reasonably expected to be present in storm water runoff. 1.3.7 Significant Spilis/Leaks and Corrective Actions Taken To 1TR management's knowledge there have been no major discharges at the facility. Spills of any volume are to be handled according to the spill response procedures in Section 3.4. 1.4 Non -Storm Water Discharges {Certification Required) Please see Appendix E for signed certification that all outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non -storm water discharges and that no such discharges were found. 2.0 STORM WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN 2.1 Feasibility of Changing Operations to Eliminate/Reduce Exposure There are no feasible changes at this facility that would eliminate exposure at this time. 2.2 Materials Management Practices The facility incorporates structural and non-structural control measures in the attempt to further reduce the level of pollutants in storm water runoff. The following briefly describes each control measure used on site. 2.2.1 Structural Controls The following provides a brief narrative of structural control measures and their functions: Coverings are used to minimize contact between Significant Materials and precipitation and to limit contact between dust/particulate matter and storm water. All Significant Materials are stored inside in a dual containment system. • A Dual -Containment Structure constructed of concrete block is present around the 10,000 gallon diesel. Dual containment also surrounds the (2) 2,750,000 gallon ethanol tanks, in the form of an earthen containment structure. These secondary containment structures provide adequate secondary containment. C J.T. Russell & Sons Healing Springs Facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan August 2012 • Sediment Basins — All storm water originating within or passing through the facility is routed, via storm water conveyance channels and conveyance pipes, to the sediment basins which allow residence time for sediment and other pollutants to settle out. Those areas not directed to the sediment basins are managed with one or more of the following: • check darns • rip -rap • vegetative cover • matting • Silt Fence 2.2.2 Non-structural Controls Non-structural storm water control measures implemented at the facility include the following: • Preventative Maintenance includes visual inspections of storm water management devices, material storage systems, and all equipment for corrosion, deterioration, and stains. The risk of releasing significant materials can be greatly reduced by identifying and eliminating potential spills (leaks) and/or breach of containment structures before they become a problem. See Section 4.1 for more information. • Housekeeping measures include sweeping, neat and orderly storage of materials, maintenance of floors, preservation of adequate aisle space, and a periodic walk around the facility to check for any possible pollution issues. Please see Section 4.2 for more information. • Spill Response is prompt as a result of frequent inspections. Employees are trained to recognize potential spill situations and respond to them immediately and appropriately. Please see Section 3.0 for more information. • Security systems utilized at the facility include fencing and a main entrance gate (which is closed and locked if facility is closed) as well as area lights for illumination, and security cameras, all of which reduce the likelihood of vandalism, theft, and sabotage. During normal "open" operational times, the site has qualified personnel on duty. • Visual Inspections are conducted at Significant Material storage locations. Inspections assist in identifying spills and leaks, corroded pipes and tanks, equipment deterioration, and stains. Please see Section 4.0 for more information. 2.3 Secondary Containment The 10,000 gallon diesel and (2) 2,750,000 gallon ethanol tanks have secondary containment structures built around them. The liquid asphalt binder and additive tanks are exempt from secondary containment requirements. 2.4 Best Management Practices Summary Existing best management practices (BMPs) measures include proper conveyance of storm water to the designated outfalls. Please see Section 4.2 for more information. 2.5 Inspection of Storm Water Conveyances J.T. Russell & Sons Healing Springs Facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan August 2012 Visual inspections are conducted at the facility for evidence of pollutants or the potential for pollutants to enter the storm water drainage system, as well as the physical condition of storm water conveyances such as building downspouts, sediment basins, and BMP's described in Section 2.4. Inspections are conducted semi-annually in accordance with the inspection procedures outlined in Section 4.1. 2.6 Vehicle and Equipment Cleaning Areas Vehicle and equipment washing is not performed onsite. 2.7 Remote Fueling Operations The off-loading of ethanol is conducted at a loading rack that is connected to the secondary containment system. No other fueling type activities take place at the facility. 3.0 Spill Prevention and Response Plan 3.1 Purpose and Scope The purpose of this Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) is to provide an assessment of potential pollutant sources in order to minimize the risk of a spill and increase the effectiveness of a response to a potential spill. A qualified person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to contaminate storm water runoff through spills or exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. Appendix F identifies facility personnel responsible for implementing the SPRP. Due to the nature of the facility, the potential pollutant sources are generally related to the storage, transfer, and use of the facility's petroleum products as covered in the Spill Prevention, Control, and Counter- measure (SPCC) Plan. 3.2 Material Handling and Storage Procedures The facility has twelve active in -use ASTs located onsite, there are an additional four ASTs that are not currently in use and are empty. The materials contained within the ASTs include the following: diesel is stored in one 10,000 gallon tank, ethanol is stored in (2) 2,750,000 — gallon tanks, liquid asphalt binder is stored in (8) tanks totaling 540,000 gallons, and asphalt additive is stored in one 8,000 gallon tank. The material used onsite can be categorized as new materials. 3.2.1 New Materials New petroleum products (ethanol) are stored in (2) 2,750,000 gallon ASTs. The storage, transfer, cleanup, and notification systems for these materials are detailed in the facility's SPCC plan. 3.2.2 Waste Materials No waste petroleum materials are produced or stored at the facility. Debris and trash generated during operations or found outside in the parking area is disposed of in trash receptacles and eventually into a dumpster, which is hauled away by a trash pick-up service regularly. 3.3 Spill Response Equipment The following is a list of equipment to be utilized in the event of spill/leakage of contaminants: J.T. Russell & Sons Healing Springs facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan August 2012 • Employee Protection includes protective gloves and safety glasses, which are available in the office.

Possible pollutants that may be spilled, from Section 1.4.1, include ethanol, No.2 diesel fuel, liquid asphalt binder, and additive. The following describes response procedures for types of spills: Minor Spills or Leaks are to be covered with absorbent material and then collected with either shovels or broom and dustpan for immediate and proper disposal into a solid waste container. Debris found in the parking area shall be picked up and disposed of in the proper waste receptacle. Significant Spills are to be first isolated with booms from emergency response spill kits before being covered with absorbent material. Then, the material is to be collected by either shovels or broom and dustpan and disposed based upon the recommendation of the General Manager or his/her designee. In the event of a large spill, the facility's spill response contractor will be called to clean up the spill. Section 5.0 of the facility's SPCC Plan shall be consulted for response details. For a significant spill of liquid asphalt binder, sand should be placed on the spill until the material hardens, then the sand and liquid asphalt binder should be picked up and placed in the area reserved for recyclable asphalt material, to be picked up with sufficient amounts accumulate and taken to one of JTR's asphalt plants to be recycled. 3.5 Spill Reporting and Documentation The General Manager or his/her designee is responsible for managing all emergency situations associated with the release of petroleum -based or hazardous materials. Fie/she shall be thoroughly familiar with emergency response procedures and responsible for initiating response measures to the fullest extent without sacrificing worker safety. JTR employees are requested to report all material releases to the General Manager or his/her designee, who will document them regardless of volume. Additional duties of the General Manager or his/her designee include securing the area and assessing the situation to 0 J.T. Russell & Sons August 2012 Healing Springs facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan determine what assistance is necessary. He/she is responsible for reporting each incident to the appropriate authorities, recording the incident, and conducting a post -spill briefing to discuss the cause of the release and any measure which can be initiated to prevent another such event. If significant materials are released in amounts equal to or in excess of reportable quantities as listed in Append& H, it is required that the National Response Center is notified at (800-424-8802) and NCDENR is notified at (800-858-0368) within 24 hours of the spill. 4.0 PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE AND GOOD HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAMS 4.1 Preventative Maintenance Program The JTR On -site Coordinators perform semi-annual inspections of the facility systems described below. Inspection shall be conducted once during January to June, and once during July to December with a minimum of 60 days between inspections. See Part 8 and the Semi-annual Storm Water Management System Inspection Form in Appendix C-1. Areas inspected include parking areas, loading and unloading areas, building downspouts, storm water conveyance systems, and sediment basins. In addition, observers will look for any leaks, spills, poor housekeeping, corrosion/cracks or foundation problems. If any problems are observed, they are to be noted during the inspection. The inspection form is also used to determine required maintenance and to update the Plan to suit any changes to the facility's operation. Inspection forms are filed in the General Manager or his/her designee's office. Inspection findings and corrective measures undertaken are also contained in these files. Inspection reports shall be kept with the Plan at the facility for five (5) years. The current policies will be reviewed after each inspection to determine if additional upgrades are necessary. Based on those results, the Plan will be revised to address changes in (1) the description of the potential pollutant sources and (2) pollution prevention measures and controls identified in the Plan, both within thirty (30) days of the inspection. 4.1.1 Storm Water Management Devices The equipment and systems used on -site to minimize pollutants from entering storm water runoff are inspected for leaks, discoloration, rust, and/or any other breaches of integrity and include: Secondary containment, and; Cover, i.e. roofs. All storm water originating within or passing through the facility is routed, via channels and conveyance pipes, to the sediment basins which allow residence time for sediment and other pollutants to settle out. Those areas not directed to the sediment basins are managed with one or more of the following: • check dams • rip -rap • vegetative cover • matting • silt fence 4.1.2 Materials Storage System Inspections H J.T. Russell & Sons Healing Springs Facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan August 2012 The primary focus of the inspections of the equipment and systems used to minimize the pollutants from entering storm water runoff are to identify potential release sources and safety hazards associated with the following: • AST secondary containment integrity; • Loading/unloading areas; • Petroleum product bulk storage locations, • Pipe and pump leaks; • Tank corrosion; • Deterioration of supports or foundations; • Stains on walls, and; • Overhead cover integrity. 4.1.3 Storm Water Management System Inspections The primary focus of the inspections on the storm water management system is to identify conditions which may reduce the effectiveness of the system such as: • Stressed vegetation; • Structures placed in front of outfal ls, and; • Condition of the storm water outfalls. Outfalls shall not be obstructed. Vegetated areas shall be maintained. 4.1.4 Equipment Inspections Each system and piece of equipment is inspected semi-annually. Inspection procedures vary depending upon the equipment/system; however, the major elements of the inspection program include: • Cracks or structural failures; • Parts or pieces of equipment not functioning properly; • Degradation or deterioration of the unit; • Need for cleaning or emptying the unit, and; 4.1.5 Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance The facility has established a vehicle and equipment maintenance program to keep all components in good mechanical condition, provide for the safe operation of vehicles, limit operating costs, and maximize operating life.

Russell & Sons August 2012 Healing Springs Facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (Part 11. Section C. of the General Permit is included by reference below) Qualitative monitoring requires a visual inspection of each storm water outfall regardless of representative outfall status and shall be performed as specified in Table 4 below. If no storm water discharge is occurring during the time of the weekly inspection a check to ensure that all sedimentation and erosion controls are being properly implemented will be performed. Qualitative monitoring is for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of sedimentation and erosion controls, and assessing new sources of storm water pollution. No analytical tests are required. Qualitative monitoring shall be conducted at least once every seven calendar days, and within 24 hours after any storm event of greater than 0.5 inches of rain per 24 hour period. During stormy periods, or whenever runoff occurs daily, all sedimentation and erosion control facilities shall be inspected daily and immediately before closing operations for the weekend or other holiday. The operator shall keep a record of these qualitative monitoring inspections on site. Uncontrolled releases of mud or muddy water or visible sedimentation found off site shall be recorded with a brief explanation as to the measures taken to prevent future releases as well as any measures taken to clean up the sediment that has left the site. This record shall be made available to DWQ or authorized agent upon request.

Monitoring Location: Qualitative monitoring shall be performed at each storm water discharge outfall (SDO) regardless of representative outfall status. 10.3 On -Site Vehicle Maintenance Monitoring Requirements The JTR Healing Springs Facility does not conduct on -site vehicle maintenance at the site. They do maintain a forklift, however they do not use more than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month when averaged over the calendar year. Therefore the facility is not required to perform analytical monitoring. 10.4 Monitoring and Records (Part III.D of the General Permit is included by reference below) E , Representative Sampling Samples collected and measurements taken, as required herein, shall be characteristic of the volume and nature of the permitted discharge. Analytical sampling shall be performed during a representative storm event. Samples shall be taken on a day and time that is characteristic of the 15 J.T. Russell & Sons August 2012 Healing Springs Facility Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan discharge. All samples shall be taken before the discharge joins or is diluted by any other waste stream, body of water, or substance. Monitoring points as specified in this permit shall not be changed without notification to and approval of the Director. 2. Recording Results For each measurement, sample, inspection or maintenance activity performed or collected pursuant to the requirements of this general permit, the permittee shall record the following information: a. The date, exact place, and time of sampling, measurements, inspection or maintenance activity; b. The individual(s) who performed the sampling, measurements, inspection or maintenance activity; c. The date(s) analyses were performed; d. The individual(s) who performed the analyses; e. The analytical techniques or methods used; and f. The results of such analyses. Flow Measurements Where required, appropriate flow measurement devices and methods consistent with accepted scientific practices shall be selected and used to ensure the accuracy and reliability of measurements of the volume of monitored discharges. 4. Test Procedures Test procedures for the analysis of pollutants shall conform to the EMC regulations published pursuant to NCGS 143-215.63 et. seq, the Water and Air Quality Reporting Acts, and to regulations published pursuant to Section 304(g), 33 USC 1314, of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as Amended, and Regulation 40 CFR 136. To meet the intent of the monitoring required by this general permit, all test procedures must produce minimum detection and reporting levels and all data generated must be reported down to the minimum detection or lower reporting level of the procedure. Representative Outfall If a facility has multiple discharge locations with substantially identical storm water discharges that are required to be sampled, the permittee may petition the Director for representative outfall status. If it is established that the storm water discharges are substantially identical and the permittee is granted representative outfall status, then sampling requirements may be performed at a reduced number of outfalls.

The NOI shall be submitted and a certificate of coverage issued prior to any discharge of stormwater associated with industrial activity that has a point source discharge to the surface waters of the state. Any owner or operator not wishing to be covered or limited by this General Permit may make application for an individual NPDES permit in accordance with NPDES procedures in 15A NCAC 2H .0100, stating the reasons supporting the request. Any application for an individual permit should be made at least 180 days prior to commencement of discharge. This General Permit does not cover activities or discharges covered by an individual NPDES permit until the individual permit has expired or has been revoked. Any person conducting an activity covered by an individual permit but which could be covered by this General Permit may request that the individual permit be revoked and coverage under this General Permit be provided. If industrial materials and activities are not exposed to precipitation or runoff as described in 40 CFR § 122.26(g), the facility may qualify for a No Exposure Exclusion from NPDES stormwater discharge permit requirements. Any owner or operator wishing to obtain a No Exposure Certification must submit a No Exposure Certification NOT form to the Division, must receive approval by the Division, must maintain no exposure conditions unless authorized to discharge under a valid NPDES stormwater permit, and must reapply for the No Exposure Exclusion once every five (5) years. Facilities submitting NOIs for coverage under this permit, and facilities submitting renewal forms for continued coverage under this permit, prior to establishment or approval of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) for pollutant(s) for stormwater discharges (i.e. wet weather flows), may be covered under this permit during its term. For such facilities, continued coverage under the reissuance of this permit is subject to the facility demonstrating that it does not have a reasonable potential to violate applicable water quality standards for such pollutants due to the stormwater discharge(s). For facilities that do have a reasonable potential for violation of applicable water quality standards due to the stormwater discharge(s), the facility shall apply for an individual permit 180 days prior to the expiration of this general permit. Once the individual permit is issued and becomes effective the facility will no longer have coverage under the general permit. Impaired waters scheduled for TMDL development are on North Carolina's 303(d) List and can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmdl/General_303d.htm#Downloads. A list of approved TMDLs for the state of North Carolina can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmd[/General_TMDLs.htm. During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater associated with industrial activity. Such discharges shall be controlled, limited, and monitored as specified in this permit. Part I Page 1 of 2 Permit No. NCGO80000 SECTION B: PERMITTED ACTIVITIES Until this permit expires or is modified or revoked, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater to the surface waters of North Carolina or separate storm sewer system which has been adequately treated and managed in accordance with the terms and conditions of this General Permit. All stormwater discharges shall be in accordance with the conditions of this permit. Any other point source discharge to surface waters of the state is prohibited unless it is an allowable non-stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization or approval. The stormwater discharges allowed by this General Permit shall not cause or contribute to violations of Water Quality Standards. This permit does not relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. Part 1 Page 2 of 2 Permit No. NCGO80000 PART II MONITORING, CONTROLS, AND LIMITATIONS FOR PERMITTED DISCHARGES SECTION A: STORMWATER POLLUTION PREVENTION PLAN The permittee shall develop a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, herein after referred to as the Plan. This Plan shall be considered public information in accordance with Part lIl, Standard Conditions, Section E, Paragraph 3 of this general permit. The Plan shall include, at a minimum, the following items: Site Plan. The site plan shall provide a description of the physical facility and the potential pollutant sources which may be expected to contribute to contamination of stormwater discharges. The site plan shall contain the following: (a) A general location map (USGS quadrangle map or appropriately drafted equivalent map), showing the facility's location in relation to transportation routes and surface waters, the name of the receiving water(s) to which the stormwater outfall(s) discharges, or if the discharge is to a municipal separate storm sewer system, the name of the municipality and the ultimate receiving waters, and accurate latitude and longitude of the point(s) of discharge. The map should identify whether each receiving water is impaired (on the state's 303(d) list of impaired waters) or is located in a watershed for which a TMDL has been established, and what the parameter(s) of concern are. North Carolina's 303(d) List can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/tmdt/General_303d.htm#Downloads North Carolina TMDL documents can be found here: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/tmdl/TMOL—list.htm#Final—TMDLs (b) A narrative description of storage practices, loading and unloading activities, outdoor process areas, dust or particulate generating or control processes, and waste disposal practices. A narrative description of the potential pollutants which could be expected to be present in the stormwater discharge from each outfall. (c) A site map drawn to scale (including a distance legend) showing: the site property boundary, the stormwater discharge points, all on -site and adjacent surface waters and wetlands, industrial activity areas (including storage of materials, disposal areas, process areas, loading and unloading areas, and haul roads), site topography, all drainage features and structures, drainage areas for each outfall, industrial activities occurring in each drainage area, buildings, existing BMPs, and impervious surfaces. The site map must indicate the percentage of each drainage area that is impervious. (d) A list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants that have occurred at the facility during the three (3) previous years and any corrective actions taken to mitigate spill impacts. Part II Page 1 of 9 Permit No. NCGO80000 (e) Certification that the stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non-stormwater discharges. The certification statement will be signed in accordance with the requirements found in Part III, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 5. 2. Stormwater Management Plan. The stormwater management plan shall contain a narrative description of the materials management practices employed which control or minimize the exposure of significant materials to stormwater, including structural and nonstructural measures. The stormwater management plan, at a minimum, shall incorporate the following: (a) Feasibility Study. A review of the technical and economic feasibility of changing the methods of operations and/or storage practices to eliminate or reduce exposure of materials and processes to stormwater. Wherever practical, the permittee shall prevent exposure of all storage areas, material handling operations, and manufacturing or fueling operations. In areas where elimination of exposure is not practical, the stormwater management plan shall document the feasibility of diverting the stormwater runoff away from areas of potential contamination. (b) Secondary Containment Requirements and Records. Secondary containment is required for: bulk storage of liquid materials; storage in any amount of Section 313 of Title III of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) water priority chemicals; and storage in any amount of hazardous substances, in order to prevent leaks and spills from contaminating stormwater runoff. A table or summary of all such tanks and stored materials and their associated secondary containment areas shall be maintained. If the secondary containment devices are connected directly to stormwater conveyance systems, the connection shall be controlled by manually activated valves or other similar devices (which shall be secured closed with a locking mechanism), and any stormwater that accumulates in the containment area shall be at a minimum visually observed for color, foam, outfall staining, visible sheens and dry weather flow, prior to release of the accumulated stormwater. Accumulated stormwater shall be released if found to be uncontaminated by the material stored within the containment area. Records documenting the individual making the observation, the description of the accumulated stormwater, and the date and time of the release shall be kept for a period of five years. (c) BMP Summary. A narrative description shall be provided of Best Management Practices (BMPs) to be considered such as, but not limited to, oil and grease separation, debris control, vegetative filter strips, infiltration and stormwater detention or retention, where necessary. The need for structural BMPs shall be based on the assessment of the potential of pollutant sources to contribute significant quantities of pollutants to stormwater discharges and data collected through monitoring of stormwater discharges. (d) Locomotive Sanding Areas (applicable to Rail Transportation only). The plan must describe measures that prevent or minimize contamination of the stormwater runoff from areas used for locomotive sanding. The facility shall consider covering sanding areas, minimizing stormwater runon/runoff, appropriate Part ll Page 2 of 9 Permit No. NCG080000 sediment removal practices to minimize the offsite transport of sanding material by stormwater, or other equivalent measures. (e) Vehicle and Equipment Cleaning Areas. The plan must describe measures that prevent or minimize contamination of the stormwater runoff from all areas used for vehicle and equipment cleaning. The facility shall consider performing all cleaning operations indoors, covering the cleaning operation, ensuring that all wash waters drain to the sanitary sewer system (i.e., not the stormwater drainage system, unless permitted by another NPDES general or individual permit), collecting the stormwater runoff from the cleaning area and providing treatment or recycling, or other equivalent measures. If sanitary sewer is not available to the facility and cleaning operations take place outdoors, the cleaning operations shall take place on grassed or graveled areas to prevent point source discharges of the wash water into the storm drains or surface waters. Where cleaning operations cannot be performed as described above and when operations are performed in the vicinity of a storm drainage collection system, the drain shall be covered with a portable drain cover during cleaning activities. Any excess ponded water shall be removed and properly handled by pump to a sanitary sewer system prior to removing the drain cover. Detergents used outdoors shall be biodegradable and the pH adjusted to be in the range of 6 to 9 standard units. The point source discharge of vehicle and equipment wash waters, including tank cleaning operations, are not authorized by this permit and must be covered under a separate NPDES general or individual permit or discharged to a sanitary sewer in accordance with applicable industrial wastewater pretreatment requirements. (f) Remote Fueling Operations. If remote fueling (or other vehicle maintenance activities) are conducted at off site locations but coordinated from the permitted facility, the plan shall include a component that describes the stormwater management practices and PMPs used to prevent and/or minimize the contamination of stormwater from such activities. Spill Prevention and Response Plan. The Spill Prevention and Response Plan (SPRP) shall incorporate an assessment of potential pollutant sources based on a materials inventory of the facility. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the SPRP shall be identified. A responsible person shall be on -site at all times during facility operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff through spills or exposure of materials associated with the facility operations. The SPRP must be site stormwater specific. Therefore, an oil SPCC plan may be a component of the SPRP but may not be sufficient to completely address the stormwater aspects of the SPRP. The common elements of the SPCC with the SPRP may be incorporated by reference into the SPRP. 4. Preventative Maintenance and Good Housekeeping Program. A preventative maintenance program shall be developed. The program shall document schedules of inspections and maintenance activities of stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Inspection of material handling areas and regular cleaning schedules of these areas shall be incorporated into the program. Part II Page 3 of 9 Permit No. NCGO80000 Employee Training. Training schedules shall be developed and training provided at a minimum on an annual basis on proper spill response and cleanup procedures and preventative maintenance activities for all personnel involved in any of the facility's operations that have the potential to contaminate stormwater runoff. Facility personnel (or team) responsible for implementing the training shall be identified. 6. Responsible Party. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall identify a specific position(s) responsible for the overall coordination, development, implementation, and revision to the Plan. Responsibilities for all components of the Plan shall be documented and position assignments provided. 7. Plan Amendment. The permittee shall amend the Plan whenever there is a change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance which has a significant effect on the potential for the discharge of pollutants to surface waters. The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan shall be reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The annual update shall include an updated list of significant spills or leaks of pollutants for the previous three years, or the notation that no spills have occurred. The annual update shall include re -certification that the Stormwater outfalls have been evaluated for the presence of non- stormwater discharges. The Director may notify the permittee when the Plan does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee shall submit a time schedule to the Director for modifying the Plan to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide certification in writing (in accordance with Part M, Standard Conditions, Section B, Paragraph 5) to the Director that the changes have been made. Facility Inspection Program. Inspections of the facility and all stormwater systems shall occur at a minimum on a semi-annual schedule, once during the first half of the year (January to June) and once during the second half (July to December), with at least 60- days separating inspection dates (unless performed more frequently). The inspection and any subsequent maintenance activities performed shall be documented, recording date and time of inspection, individual(s) making the inspection and a narrative description of the facility's stormwater control systems, plant equipment and systems. Records of these inspections shall be incorporated into the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. These facility inspections are different from, and in addition to, the stormwater discharge characteristic monitoring required in Part 1.1 of this permit. 9. Implementation. The permittee shall implement the Plan. The permittee shall document all monitoring, measurements, inspections, maintenance activities, and training provided to employees, including the log of the sampling data and of actions taken to implement BMPs associated with the industrial activities, including vehicle maintenance activities. Such documentation shall be kept on -site for a period of five years and made available to the Director or the Director's authorized representative immediately upon request. Part H Page 4 of 9 Permit No. NCGO80000 SECTION B: ANALYTICAL MONITORING REQUIREMENTS - VEHICLE MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater subject to the provisions of this permit. Analytical monitoring of stormwater discharges shall be performed as specified in Table 1, for those facilities conducting vehicle maintenance activities and utilizing more than 55 gallons new motor oil per month when averaged over the year (those vehicle maintenance activities not utilizing more than 55 gallons of new motor oil per month are not required to conduct analytical monitoring). Table I.

An on -site rain gauge or local rain gauge reading must be recorded. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a representative storm event at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A representative storm event is a storm event that measures greater than 0.1 inches of rainfall and that is preceded by at least 72 hours in which no storm event measuring greater than 0.1 inches has occurred. A single storm event may contain up to 10 consecutive hours of no precipitation. For example, if it rains for 2 hours without producing any collectable discharge, and then stops, a sample may be collected if a rain producing a discharge begins again within the next 10 hours. Part H Page 5 of 9 Permit No. NCGO80000 The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified in Table 2. A minimum of 60 days must separate Period l and Period 2 sample dates unless monthly monitoring has been instituted under a Tier Two response. Table 2.

If at the expiration of the general permit, the permittee has submitted an application for renewal of coverage before the submittal deadline, the permittee will be considered for renewed coverage. The applicant must continue semi-annual monitoring until the renewed Certificate of Coverage is issued. 2 If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee must submit a monitoring report indicating "No Flow" within 30 days of the end of the six-month sampling period. Monitoring results shall be compared to the benchmark values in Table 3. Exceedences of benchmark values require the permittee to increase monitoring, increase management actions, increase record keeping, and/or install stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) in a tiered program. See below the descriptions of Tier One and Tier Two. Table 3. Benchmark Values for Analytical Monitoring Requirements Discharge Characteristics Benchmark Value H Within the range 6.0 - 9.0 Oil and Grease 30 mg/1 Total Suspended Solids 100 m Part 11 Page 6 of 9 Permit No. NCGO80000 Tier One If: The sampling results are above a benchmark value, or outside of the benchmark range, for any at anv outfall; Then: The permittee shall: 1. Conduct a stormwater management inspection of the facility within two weeks of receiving sampling results. 2. Identify and evaluate possible causes of the benchmark value exceedence. 3. Identify potential, and select the specific: source controls, operational controls, or physical improvements to reduce concentrations of the parameters of concern, or to bring concentrations within the benchmark range. 4. Implement the selected actions within two months of the inspection. 5. Record each instance of a Tier One response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Include the date and value of the benchmark exceedence, the inspection date, the personnel conducting the inspection, the selected actions, and the date the selected actions were implemented. Tier Two If: During the term of this permit, the sampling results are above the benchmark values, or outside of the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at a specific discharge outfall two tithes in a row; Then: The penmittee shall. 1. Repeat all the required actions outlined above in Tier One. 2. Immediately institute monthly monitoring for all parameters at every outfall where a sampling result exceeded the benchmark value for two consecutive samples. Monthly (analytical and qualitative) monitoring shall continue until three consecutive sample results are below the benchmark values or within the benchmark range. 3. If no discharge occurs during the sampling period, the permittee is required to submit a monthly monitoring report indicating "No Flow" to comply with reporting requirements. 4. Maintain a record of the Tier Two response in the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, Part II Page 7 of 9 Permit No. NCGO80000 During the term of this permit, if the sampling results exceed the benchmark value, or are outside the benchmark range, for any specific parameter at any specific outfall on more than four occasions, DWQ may: Require that the permittee increase or decrease the monitoring frequency for the remainder of the permit; • rescind coverage under the General Permit, and require that the permittee apply for an individual stormwater discharge permit; • require the permittee to install structural stormwater controls; • require the permittee to install other stormwater control measures; or • require that the permittee implement site modifications to qualify for the No Exposure Exclusion.

(5) Unless you have submitted a response plan under §1 12.20, organize portions of the Plan describing procedures you will use when a discharge occurs in a way that will make them readily usable in an emergency, and include appropriate supporting material as appendices. (b) Where experience indicates a reasonable potential for equipment failure (such as loading or unloading equipment, tank overflow, rupture, or leakage, or any other equipment known to be a source of a discharge), include in your Plan a prediction of the direction, rate of flow, and total quantity of oil which could be discharged from the facility as a result of each type of major equipment failure. (c) Provide appropriate containment and/or diversionary structures or equipment to prevent a discharge as described in §112.t(b), except as provided in paragraph (k) of this section for qualified oil -filled operational equipment. The entire containment system, including walls and floor, must be capable of containing oil and must be constructed so that any discharge from a primary containment system, such as a tank or pipe, will not escape the containment system before cleanup occurs. At a minimum, you must use one of the following prevention systems or its equivalent: (1) For onshore facilities: (i) Dikes, berms, or retaining walls sufficiently impervious to contain oil; (ii) Curbing; (iii) Culverting, gutters, or other drainage systems; (iv) Weirs, booms, or other barriers; (v) Spill diversion ponds; (vi) Retention ponds; or (vii) Sorbent materials. (2) For offshore facilities: (i) Curbing or drip pans; or (ii) Sumps and collection systems. (d) Provided your Plan is certified by a licensed Professional Engineer under §I 12.3(d), or, in the case of a qualified facility that meets the criteria in §1 12.3(g), the relevant sections of your Plan are certified by a licensed Professional Engineer under §112.6(d), if you determine that the installation of any of the structures or pieces of equipment listed in paragraphs (c) and (h)(1) of this section, and §§112.8(c)(2), 1 12.8(c)(11), 1 12.9(c)(2), 1 12.10(c), 112.12(c)(2), and 112.12(c)(I 1) to prevent a discharge as described in §112.1(b) from any onshore or offshore facility is not practicable, you must clearly explain in your Plan why such measures are not practicable; for bulk storage containers, conduct both periodic integrity testing of the containers and periodic integrity and leak testing of the valves and piping; and, unless you have submitted a response plan under § 1 12.20, provide in your Plan the following: (1) An oil spill contingency plan following the provisions of part 109 of this chapter. (2) A written commitment of manpower, equipment, and materials required to expeditiously control and remove any quantity of oil discharged that may be harmful. (e) Inspections, tests, and records. Conduct inspections and tests required by this part in accordance with written procedures that you or the certifying engineer develop for the facility. You must keep these written procedures and a record of the inspections and tests, signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector, with the SPCC Plan for a period of three years. Records of inspections and tests kept under usual and customary business practices will suffice for purposes of this paragraph. (f) Personnel, training, and discharge prevention procedures. (1) At a minimum, train your oil -handling personnel in the operation and maintenance of equipment to prevent discharges; discharge procedure protocols; applicable pollution control laws, rules, and regulations; general facility operations; and, the contents of the facility SPCC Plan. (2) Designate a person at each applicable facility who is accountable for discharge prevention and who reports to facility management. (3) Schedule and conduct discharge prevention briefings for your oil -handling personnel at least once a year to assure adequate understanding of the SPCC Plan for that facility. Such briefings must highlight and describe known discharges as described in § 112.1(b) or failures, malfunctioning components, and any recently developed precautionary measures. (g) Security (excluding oil production facilities). (1) Fully fence each facility handling, processing or storing oil, and lock and/or guard entrance gates when the facility is not in production or is unattended. (2) Ensure that the master flow and drain valves and any other valves permitting direct outward flow of the container's contents to the surface have adequate security measures so that they remain in the closed position when in non -operating or non -standby status. (3) Lock the starter control on each oil pump in the "off" position and locate it at a site accessible only to authorized personnel when the pump is in a non -operating or non -standby status. (4) Securely cap or blank -flange the loading/unloading connections of oil pipelines or facility piping when not in service or when in standby service for an extended time. This security practice also applies to piping that is emptied of liquid content either by draining or by inert gas pressure. (5) Provide facility lighting commensurate with the type and location of the facility that will assist in the: (i) Discovery of discharges occurring during hours of darkness, both by operating personnel, if present, and by non -operating personnel (the general public, local police, etc.); and (ii) Prevention of discharges occurring through acts of vandalism. (h) Facility tank car and tank truck loadinglunloading rack (excluding offshore facilities). (1) Where loading/unloading area drainage does not flow into a catchment basin or treatment facility designed to handle discharges, use a quick drainage system for tank car or tank truck loading and unloading areas. You must design any containment system to hold at least the maximum capacity of any single compartment of a tank car or tank truck loaded or unloaded at the facility. (2) Provide an interlocked warning light or physical barrier system, warning signs, wheel chocks, or vehicle break interlock system in loading/unloading areas to prevent vehicles from departing before complete disconnection of flexible or fixed oil transfer lines. (3) Prior to filling and departure of any tank car or tank truck, closely inspect for discharges the lowermost drain and all outlets of such vehicles, and if necessary, ensure that they are tightened, adjusted, or replaced to prevent liquid discharge while in transit. (i) If a field -constructed aboveground container undergoes a repair, alteration, reconstruction, or a change in service that might affect the risk of a discharge or failure due to brittle fracture or other catastrophe, or has discharged oil or failed due to brittle fracture failure or other catastrophe, evaluate the container for risk of discharge or failure due to brittle fracture or other catastrophe, and as necessary, take appropriate action. 0) In addition to the minimal prevention standards listed under this section, include in your Plan a complete discussion of conformance with the applicable requirements and other effective discharge prevention and containment procedures listed in this part or any applicable more stringent State rules, regulations, and guidelines. (k) Qualified Oil -filled Operational Equipment. The owner or operator of a facility with oil -filled operational equipment that meets the qualification criteria in paragraph (k)(1) of this sub -section may choose to implement for this qualified oil -filled operational equipment the alternate requirements as described in paragraph (k)(2) of this sub -section in lieu of general secondary containment required in paragraph (c) of this section. (1) Qualification Criteria —Reportable Discharge History: The owner or operator of a facility that has had no single discharge as described in §112.1(b) from any oil -filled operational equipment exceeding 1,000 U.S. gallons or no two discharges as described in §112.1(b) from any oil -filled operational equipment each exceeding 42 U.S. gallons within any twelve month period in the three years prior to the SPCC Plan certification date, or since becoming subject to this part if the facility has been in operation for less than three years (other than oil discharges as described in § 1 12.1(b) that are the result of natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism); and (2) Alternative Requirements to General Secondary Containment. If secondary containment is not provided for qualified oil -filled operational equipment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this section, the owner or operator of a facility with qualified oil -filled operational equipment must- (i) Establish and document the facility procedures for inspections or a monitoring program to detect equipment failure and/or a discharge; and (ii) Unless you have submitted a response plan under §112.20, provide in your Plan the following: (A) An oil spill contingency plan following the provisions of part 109 of this chapter. (8) A written commitment of manpower, equipment, and materials required to expeditiously control and remove any quantity of oil discharged that may be harmful. [67 FR 47140, July 17, 2002, as amended at 71 FR 77292, Dec. 26, 2006] § 112.8 Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan requirements for onshore facilities (excluding production facilities). If you are the owner or operator of an onshore facility (excluding a production facility), you must: (a) Meet the general requirements for the Plan listed under §112.7, and the specific discharge prevention and containment procedures listed in this section. (b) Facility drainage. (1) Restrain drainage from diked storage areas by valves to prevent a discharge into the drainage system or facility effluent treatment system, except where facility systems are designed to control such discharge. You may empty diked areas by pumps or ejectors; however, you must manually activate these pumps or ejectors and must inspect the condition of the accumulation before starting, to ensure no oiI will be discharged. (2) Use valves of manual, open -and -closed design, for the drainage of diked areas. You may not use flapper -type drain valves to drain diked areas. If your facility drainage drains directly into a watercourse and not into an on -site wastewater treatment plant, you must inspect and may drain uncontaminated retained storm water, as provided in paragraphs (c)(3)(ii), (iii), and (iv) of this section. (3) Design facility drainage systems from undiked areas with a potential for a discharge (such as where piping is located outside containment walls or where tank truck discharges may occur outside the loading area) to flow into ponds, lagoons, or catchment basins designed to retain oil or return it to the facility. You must not locate catchment basins in areas subject to periodic flooding. (4) If facility drainage is not engineered as in paragraph (b)(3) of this section, equip the final discharge of all ditches inside the facility with a diversion system that would, in the event of an uncontrolled discharge, retain oil in the facility. (5) Where drainage waters are treated in more than one treatment unit and such treatment is continuous, and pump transfer is needed, provide two "lift" pumps and permanently install at least one of the pumps. Whatever techniques you use, you must engineer facility drainage systems to prevent a discharge as described in § 1 12.1(b) in case there is an equipment failure or human error at the facility. (c) Bulk storage containers. (1) Not use a container for the storage of oil unless its material and construction are compatible with the material stored and conditions of storage such as pressure and temperature. (2) Construct all bulk storage tank installations (except mobile refuelers) so that you provide a secondary means of containment for the entire capacity of the largest single container and sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. You must ensure that diked areas are sufficiently impervious to contain discharged oil. Dikes, containment curbs, and pits are commonly employed for this purpose. You may also use an alternative system consisting of a drainage trench enclosure that must be arranged so that any discharge will terminate and be safely confined in a facility catchment basin or holding pond. (3) Not allow drainage of uncontaminated rainwater from the diked area into a storm drain or discharge of an effluent into an open watercourse, lake, or pond, bypassing the facility treatment system unless you: (i) Normally keep the bypass valve sealed closed. (ii) Inspect the retained rainwater to ensure that its presence will not cause a discharge as described in §112.1(b). (iii) Open the bypass valve and reseal it following drainage under responsible supervision; and (iv) Keep adequate records of such events, for example, any records required under permits issued in accordance with §§ 122.416)(2) and 122.41(m)(3) of this chapter. (4) Protect any completely buried metallic storage tank installed on or after January 10, 1974 from corrosion by coatings or cathodic protection compatible with local soil conditions. You must regularly leak test such completely buried metallic storage tanks. (5) Not use partially buried or bunkered metallic tanks for the storage of oil, unless you protect the buried section of the tank from corrosion. You must protect partially buried and bunkered tanks from corrosion by coatings or cathodic protection compatible with local soil conditions. (6) Test each aboveground container for integrity on a regular schedule, and whenever you make material repairs. The frequency of and type of testing must take into account container size and design (such as floating roof, skid -mounted, elevated, or partially buried). You must combine visual inspection with another testing technique such as hydrostatic testing, radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, acoustic emissions testing, or another system of non-destructive shell testing. You must keep comparison records and you must also inspect the container's supports and foundations. In addition, you must frequently inspect the outside of the container for signs of deterioration, discharges, or accumulation of oil inside diked areas. Records of inspections and tests kept under usual and customary business practices will suffice for purposes of this paragraph. (7) Control leakage through defective internal heating coils by monitoring the steam return and exhaust lines for contamination from internal heating coils that discharge into an open watercourse, or pass the steam return or exhaust lines through a settling tank, skimmer, or other separation or retention system. (8) Engineer or update each container installation in accordance with good engineering practice to avoid discharges. You must provide at least one of the following devices: (i) High liquid level alarms with an audible or visual signal at a constantly attended operation or surveillance station. In smaller facilities an audible air vent may suffice. (ii) High liquid level pump cutoff devices set to stop flow at a predetermined container content level. (iii) Direct audible or code signal communication between the container gauger and the pumping station. (iv) A fast response system for determining the liquid level of each bulk storage container such as digital computers, telepulse, or direct vision gauges. If you use this alternative, a person must be present to monitor gauges and the overall filling of bulk storage containers- (v) You must regularly test liquid level sensing devices to ensure proper operation. (9) Observe effluent treatment facilities frequently enough to detect possible system upsets that could cause a discharge as described in § 112.1(b). (10) Promptly correct visible discharges which result in a loss of oil from the container, including but not limited to seams, gaskets, piping, pumps, valves, rivets, and bolts. You must promptly remove any accumulations of oil in diked areas. (II) Position or locate mobile or portable oil storage containers to prevent a discharge as described in §112.1(b). Except for mobile refuelers, you must furnish a secondary means of containment, such as a dike or catchment basin, sufficient to contain the capacity of the largest single compartment or container with sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. (d) Facility transfer operations, pumping, and facility process. (1) Provide buried piping that is installed or replaced on or after August 16, 2002, with a protective wrapping and coating. You must also cathodically protect such buried piping installations or otherwise satisfy the corrosion protection standards for piping in part 280 of this chapter or a State program approved under part 281 of this chapter. If a section of buried line is exposed for any reason, you must carefully inspect it for deterioration. if you find corrosion damage, you must undertake additional examination and corrective action as indicated by the magnitude of the damage. (2) Cap or blank -flange the terminal connection at the transfer point and mark it as to origin when piping is not in service or is in standby service for an extended time. (3) Properly design pipe supports to minimize abrasion and corrosion and allow for expansion and contraction. (4) Regularly inspect all aboveground valves, piping, and appurtenances. During the inspection you must assess the general condition of items, such as flange joints, expansion joints, valve glands and bodies, catch pans, pipeline supports, locking of valves, and metal surfaces. You must also conduct integrity and leak testing of buried piping at the time of installation, modification, construction, relocation, or replacement. (5) Warn all vehicles entering the facility to be sure that no vehicle will endanger aboveground piping or other oil transfer operations.

Russell and Sons Healing Springs Thank you Jenifer, I was looking to see if there was site specific information, in addition to the general permit information. In the past, I think there was a time when no monitoring was required (in 2008 and 2009, 1 think) and then one sample per year was required, but 1 do not have any correspondence that showed why changes were made. The permit text was the same in 2008 and 2009, so 1-don't see why there would have been a reduction in monitoring. I don't believe any kind of exemption for Qualitative (visual) monitoring has ever been granted. ??? Also, the site does not use motor oil, per se. They have a boiler that uses diesel fuel. The do not have an oil water separator. And, there is no desire to discharge from the bulk ethanol tanks. Then no Analytical monitoring is required by the NCG080000 permit. If the boiler blowdown is discharge outside (as opposed to the sewer system), that requires a different NPDES general wastewater permit. However, does off loading into tanker trucks equal discharge? Not as far as the permit is concerned. It would be something you address in the SWPPP (i.e. preventative measures BMPs, spill response). My understanding is that we need to calculate the amount of diesel fuel used per month, and if that is greater than 55 gallons, we will have to sample semi-annually. is this your understanding as well? The requirement only applies to new motor oil, not diesel fuel. Again, be sure to address preventative measures, BMPs and spill procedures in the SWPPP (secondary containment, etc.). Sorry to be so complicated, I just want to be sure we meet your expectations. No need to apologize. I am happy to answer questions... it means you're trying to do the right thing. .1 R thanks, Michelle -----Original Message ----- From: Carter, Jenifer <jenifer.carter@ncdenr.gov> To: michellembrown <michellembrown@aol.com> Sent: Mon, Jul 2, 2012 11:27 am Subject: RE: J.T.

Are there any site specific requirements that need to be included? Also, in the past, I understand the site was required to sample one time per year, is that still the case.

Please review the attached NOI application with the objective of responding to me with a recommendation to issue the permit. I recognize that you may not visit each new, proposed permittee during this NOI review, but it affords you the opportunity to log the general permit into your regional database and add the industrial facility to a future monitoring and compliance visit schedule. Therefore, your recommendation now to issue the general permit serves as your acknowledgement that (1) the facility is located in your region, (2) that there are no current complaints outstanding about the facility that have not been dealt with, and (3) that the facility may ultimately be inspected by the regional surface water staff. I've also attached a scanned copy of the N01 and a location map for your review. rCOC # 'Facility Location City/County NCGO80838 J.T. Russell & Sons �18846 N.C.

(SIC code 4226) Davidson County Dear Mr. Carter and Mr. Russell: Dee Freeman Secretary Your response to the NOV dated April 1, 2009 was received on April 16; 2009. In your response, you questioned the rational for requiring the Denton facility to obtain a stormwater permit. The following are responses to the four points you made in you letter: 1. Though DuPont and Georgia Pacific have used the same facilities since the early 70's without a permit, it does not mean they shouldn't have had one.. It was only recently that the County's fire marshal brought the operation to the Division's attention. 2. The requirement for permit 4NCGO80000 is based not on the manufacturing of any particular goods, but on the existence of motor freight transportation and warehousing, as defined by the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code for which J. T. Russell & Sons falls under (#4226). 3. While the Division appreciates the measures already in place to contain products used and/or stored on site, the potential for failure of the measures still exists. The stormwater permit will require you to put your preventative measures in writing, and to -address how failures will be handled, through the development of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP). 4. A `discernable discharge point', as defined by the Division, can be a drainage ditch or swale that conveys stormwater away from the site, such as is found alongside the train tracks. It does not have to be a pipe, per se. Based on Ms. Jenifer Carter's visit to the site on March 24, 2009, this office has decided that an exception to the permit requirement is not supportable, as the potential for stormwater contamination, however small, still exists. The development of an SPPP will ensure that all measures have been and will continue to be developed and maintained now and in the future. Once the permit is issued, it is the intent of this office to waive the permit's monitoring requirements. This waiver can be revoked at any time should the Division feel it necessary based on conditions at the site.

Tedder, Surface Water Regional Supervisor RE: N.O.V. — Operating Without a (Stormwater)Pennit Dear Mr. Tedder, We were quite surprised to receive the captioned NOV for our site. We have reviewed the available regulations and records and offer the following comments: 1. This facility, operated by DuPont and later by Georgia Pacific, was permitted by DAQ and DWQ as a formaldehyde production facility in the early 70's. To the best of our knowledge, there has never been a stormwater permit issued for this facility. 2. Presently we are transferring ethanol, diesel fuel, and asphalt cement from rail cars to tanker trucks. Also, we are storing asphalt cement in our above- ground tanks that are located inside a containment system. There are no manUJ"cturing operations at this facility. 3. The entire facility is designed to contain all products used and/or stored there. All transfer lines are operated under pressure and the products are all stored in weather -tight covered tanks. We cannot understand how any of the products can become exposed to stormwater. 4. The facility's terrain is very flat and level. It is our understanding that previous operators felt there were no discernable discharge points, i.e. any stormwater leaving the site would be "sheet -flow". If a storm water permit is issued, a stormwater sampling discharge point is not readily evident. 0) J. T. Russell &: Sons, Inc., Healing Springs Facility Page 2 of 2 We welcome Ms. Carter or other members of .your staff to visit our site so that we can get a better understanding as to the need for a stormwater discharge permit for this facility. We would then revisit the requirement for a N.O.I. as needed. Sincerely,� e«-u� f/41'- Conrad A. Carter, Jr., P.E.
