I inspected the City's new GTA site even though you had been out there when they first got their permit and we hadn't
put it on our schedules yet. They've had a couple of spills over the past six months, so from a city standpoint we just
wanted to make sure all was in place. (Disclaimer: The spills were through no negligence on their part. Brand-new
building with faulty parts —thankfully most still under warranty as I understand! When the spills occurred, their
responsive actions were up to par, but we still just wanted to check on them to make sure.)
When I was there I saw your inspection letter from your visit. Can I get a copy of that?
Hope all is well with you and DWQ. (Hope you are enjoying Aana too! (9)

• Scheduled preventative maintenance on a regular basis that will involve inspections, cleaning,
and minor repairs to equipment.
The following items, if present at the facility, are subject to periodic inspections as they have a
direct risk to stonnwater. The Permit requires written documentation of scheduled inspections that
are performed in compliance with this Permit. Inspections that occur more frequently than shown
below are not required to be documented under the terms of this Permit.
• Oil/ Water Separator: OWSs will be visually inspected at least once every six months and
pumped out at least once per year. Refer to the manufacturer's O&M document.
• Oil pumps: Drip containment devices will be inspected for proper operation. Seals, couplings,
and valves will be inspected and replaced as needed. Oil pumps will be inspected once every
six months.
• Fuel Pumps: These devices are subject to frequent inspection of piping, electrical components,
filters, and gauges, and maintenance activities such as lubrication, balancing, repacking
I- and LFrtlltln�n bf su^n bolts and nine connections: The um manufacturers'
g t." r r-� pump
recommendations will be followed. Other pumps that handle hazardous substances with a
reasonable potential to pollute stormwater will be inspected once every six months.
• Mobile Equipment: These machines (e.g., forklifts, hoists) will be inspected for leaking
hydraulic fluids, fuel lines, and lubricating oils. Mobile equipment will be inspected once every
six months.
• Secondary containment structures: These structures will be equipped with a locking valve
controlling discharge. The valves will be locked in the closed position. Discharges will be
made in accordance with the Permit and other applicable regulations. The inspector will
observe the structural integrity, valve and lock operation, and look for signs that the enclosed
tank(s) may be leaking. Exposed secondary containment structures will be inspected once every
six months.
• Pipes and supply lines: Pressurized hazardous substance supply pipes will be inspected once
every six months. Special attention will be made to supports, connectors, couplers, and valves.
• Other: Equipment used for recycling or filtering various compounds will be inspected and
maintained as directed by the original manufacturer. Other equipment that presents a
reasonable risk for stormwater pollution will be inspected once every six months.
Greensboro Transit Authority Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
Appendix C Page C-2

BMP ASSESSMENT PROCESS
The Permit requires that the facility consider and complete practicable best management
practices (BMPs). This section describes the process used to select and determine the effectiveness
of stormwater pollution prevention measures. Potential stormwater pollution is controlled through
the use of BMPs. BMPs are generally divided into three categories;
• Baseline BMPs - which are general in nature (e.g., good housekeeping),
• Activity Specific BMPs - which pertain to specific functions which generally occur at a
similar type of Permittee facilities (e.g., hazardous materials handling), and
• Site Specific BMPs - which pertain to a specific Permittee's facility (e.g., construction of a
secondary containment around an individual storage tank).
The USEPA emphasizes the establishment of pollution prevention measures and BMPs that reduce
possible pollutant discharges at the source. Source reduction measures include, among others,
preventative maintenance, chemical substitution, spill prevention, good housekeeping, training, and
proper materials management. Where such practices are not appropriate to a particular source or do
not effectively reduce pollutants in stormwater discharges, USEPA supports the use of source
control measures and BMPs such as material segregation or covering, debris control, vegetative
filter strips, infiltration and stormwater detention or retention water diversion, and dust control.
Like source reduction measures, source control BMPs are intended to keep pollutants out of
stormwater. The remaining classes of BMPs, which involve recycling or treatment of stormwater,
allow the reuse of stormwater or attempt to lower pollutant concentrations prior to discharge.
BASELINE BMPS
Baseline BMPs are practices that are generic and can be applied at most industrial facilities. The
Permit requires the Permittee to address several baseline BMPs such as developing preventative
maintenance and good housekeeping programs.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
The facility shall regularly inspect and test facility equipment and operational systems. Inspections
will uncover conditions such as cracks or slow leaks that could cause breakdowns or failures that
result in discharges of chemicals (e.g., antifreeze, lubricants) or particulate matter (e.g., solids, paint
dust) to the storm drainage system. The program will reduce breakdowns and failures by making
proper adjustments, repair, or replacement of equipment or parts.
Standard operating procedures include two specific preventative maintenance periods:
• Run-time preventative maintenance occurs daily during each shift as normal operation of the
equipment and machinery.
Greensboro Transit Authority Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
Appendix C Page C-1

DAILY OBSERVATIONS
A general walk-through of all work areas should be conducted by the department supervisor or
other designated personnel. A written record is not required for these daily observations. Particular
attention will be made in regards to leaks, spills, and properly operating equipment. Problems will
be reported and corrected as soon as practical. The following list will serve as a guide to critical
items:
• Tanks and Drums - observe for leaks and corrosion.
• Check for fuel and lubricant leaks from equipment.
• Check secondary containment structures. Drains, where installed, should be closed and locked.
• Liquid -product Delivery Trucks (e.g., tankers) -observe for leaks and malfunctioning valves.
• Look for unusual stains on walls, floors, and grounds.
G Look for deterioration of equipment foundations and anchorages,
• Check for and remove litter and debris from storm drain system inlets.
• Are any unusual odors detected?
• Is equipment operating properly? Is excessive noise, vibration, or exhaust present?
• Are the work areas kept in a clean and orderly manner? Practice good housekeeping.
• Inspect pipelines. Look for deteriorating gaskets, supports, and loose valve stems.
• Make sure all valves are in proper position. Check that valves are not leaking.
• Look for leaking containers. Replace as necessary.
• Check condition of spill response kits and quantity of absorbent materials.
• Clear access to all safety equipment such as eyewashes, fire extinguishers, and spill response
kits.
• Clear access to emergency exit doors. Emergency exit doors must be kept unlocked during all
work hours.

GOOD HOUSEKEEPING PROGRAM
Good housekeeping is the preservation of a clean and orderly work environment that contributes to
overall facility pollution control efforts. The execution of this program may also include some
materials management practices as they relate to storage of drums and bench stock in the work
areas. Adherence to the following practices will minimize the potential for stormwater pollution:
• Maintain dry and clean floors. Interior floors will be swept as needed, with residue placed in
designated waste disposal containers. Loading docks and building perimeters will be kept clear
of scrap material and debris.
• Trash and litter will be picked upon a regular basis and disposed properly.
• Separate metal holding cans will be provided for oily rags and solvent wipes for fire prevention.
• Drip pans will be emptied as needed with collected drippings disposed at least daily.
• The exterior grounds will be policed regularly. Litter and other trash will be disposed properly.
Scrap parts and empty drums will be removed from the facility promptly.
• All equipment will be visually inspected for leaks and other conditions that could lead to a
discharge of a pollutant to waters of the State.
• Hazardous substances will be stored in approved containers. The containers will be stored in an
area not exposed to stormwater, The containers will be located away from direct vehicular
traffic.
• Containers of liquids will be placed on spill containment pallets or racks to prevent corrosion
and contain leaks. Pallets and non -cleaned drums will not be stored exposed to precipitation.
• Containers of chemicals and other compounds or mixtures will be labeled with name of
substance, stock number, expiration date, health hazards, safe handling requirements, and first
aid information. For each chemical substance used, a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) will
be provided in areas accessible to personnel.
• Good housekeeping procedures will be included in the employee training program. Regularly
scheduled meetings will be held to discuss good housekeeping and pollution prevention
concepts.
• Contractors performing work on -site will be instructed to practice good housekeeping in the
immediate vicinity of their work and material storage areas.
• The good housekeeping checklist will be completed during each semi-annual facility site
inspection.

SPILL PREVENTION AND RESPONSE
The Permit requires that the Permittee develop a spill prevention and response component within
the SWPPP document. This section meets the requirements.
Materials of Concern
The spill sources with a reasonable risk for contaminating stormwater include the storage and
handling of fuel, oil, lubricants, and antifreeze. Accidents and careless handling during these
activities can cause spilled liquids to enter the storm drainage system.
The following spillable and potentially hazardous or polluting materials are used in significant
quantities at this facility:

VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT CLEANING AREAS
General Permit NCGO80000 specifically addresses the issue of wash waters. This Permit, as
written by NCDWQ, has requirements for a facility to establish measures to prevent the discharge
of wash waters to the storm drainage system to the maximum extent practicable. These measures
are included here to provide guidance. Reference the Permit at Part II.A.2.(e) Vehicle and
Equipment Areas for further information.
The Permittee must ensure that all wash waters discharge in accordance with the Permit. If a
sanitary sewer system is not available to the facility and cleaning operations take place outdoors, the
cleaning operations shall take place on level grassed or graveled areas to prevent point source
discharges of the wash water into 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 is to 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 shall be biodegradable and the pH
adjusted to be in the range of 6 to 9 standard units.
The following methods are recommended to prevent or minimize contamination of the stormwater
runoff from areas used for vehicle and/or equipment cleaning operations. -
Perform all cleaning operations so that wash waters discharge to the sanitary sewer;
• Provide cover for outdoor cleaning operations;
• Collect wash water runoff from outdoor cleaning areas and provide treatment or recycling;
or
• Other equivalent measures.
This facility operates an enclosed bus wash bay, which re -circulates and filters the wash water.
Trench drains at each end of the wash bay capture surface flow and minimize overspray from
exiting the wash bay.
Important Note:
The point source discharge of vehicle or equipment wash water, including tank and drum
cleaning operations, to a stormwater drainage system is not authorized by NPDES Gencral
Permit No. NCGO80000 and must be covered under a separate NPDES general or individual
permit or discharged to a sanitary sewer in accordance with applicable local industrial pretreatment
requirements.
Wash waters may be discharged to a municipal sanitary sewer system as long as slug discharges are
prevented in accordance with local ordinances.
' NCG080000 does not allow the discharge of wash waters into the storm drainage system by exclusion from its
definition of allowable discharges.
Greensboro Transit Authority Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
Appendix C Page C-S

Reasonable measures necessary to prevent contamination of soil or waters of the State will be
carried out. There are four basic steps that are to be taken to control pollution that can result from a
spill:
1. Stop the spill at the source.
2. Contain the spill using appropriate defensive actions 3.
3. Collect the spilled material if trained and directed to do so.
4. Dispose of the spilled material and subsequent contaminated material properly and legally.
If containment methods are required for which you are not trained, or personal protective
equipment is not available, immediately evacuate the contaminated area and prevent unauthorized
personnel from entering. Steps 3 and 4 should only be undertaken by personnel that are properly
trained in spill response and cleanup.
Initial Response Actions
Many of the chemicals used at this facility are combustible. Remove or turn off sources of
ignition in vicinity of spills.
E
Do not atteinpt actions for which you are not -properly trained or equipped. j
Personnel safety and protection of life and limb take precedence over environmental protection.
The normal course of action in the event of a hazardous materials spill is to:
a. Initiate evacuation, if necessary.
b. Notify your immediate supervisor. If supervisor is not available, notify the SWPPT
Leader. The third in line for notification is any plant manager. The SWPPT Leader is
responsible for making external notifications based on the type and nature of the spill or
disaster. The SWPPT Leader will ensure that appropriate facility personnel are notified
and will direct control and cleanup efforts. Leaks and minor spillage shall also be
reported to insure appropriate action is taken to correct deficiencies or malfunctions that
caused the discharge.
c. Stop spill flow when possible without undue risk of personal injury. The attempt to stop
the source of a spill should be made only by those personnel sufficiently familiar with the
spilled substance and equipment as to provide an effective response without undue risk of
personal injury.
d. Contain the spill using spill response equipment or whatever means is readily available.
3 Most employees are instructed to go no further than Step 2. Never attempt actions for which you are not trained.
Greensboro Transit Authority Stornnvater Pollution Prevention Plan
Appendix C Page C-8

Spill Prevention
During transfer of hazardous materials to or from the Permittee's facility, the driver of the delivery
vehicle and handlers will be responsible for preventing spills. The driver will ensure that all hoses
are secure and that absorbent materials (pads and socks) are available before unloading. During all
POL delivery operations, the refueler driver will remain with the vehicle at all times. Absorbent
pads and booms are to be located near the chemical delivery/ connection points.
Employee awareness is the key to an effective spill prevention and response program. Spill
prevention training will be a component of the general employee training program. New personnel
will be taught spill prevention practices. The spill response team shall gain a sufficient
understanding of the objectives of the spill prevention program. Spill prevention training will
highlight previous spill events, equipment failures, remedies taken, and newly developed
prevention measures.
The SWPPT Leader will evaluate the spill prevention program once each year. Spill prevention
items that are addressed within this SWPPP and may need annual review and revision include:
• Review and update materials inventory list (emphasis on hazardous substances)
• Identify potential spill sources
• Establish incident reporting procedures
• Develop inspection procedures
• Review previous incidents
• Establish a training program
• Review new construction and proposed operational changes
Spill Response
In case of large volume or significant spills, this facility should request aid from the local Fire
Department2 (dial 911) or a private vendor under contract to provide emergency spill response.
Minor spills can be absorbed using absorbent wipes, pads or booms. All liquid materials are stored
and used inside the building or are otherwise not normally exposed to the storm drainage system.
Small spills can be controlled by sweeping or mopping the material into approved containers for
proper disposal. Proper disposal includes removing absorbent materials from the floor on a timely
basis.
The facility will follow spill response procedures outlined below. This facility uses many different
hazardous substances, some in large quantities. Similar precautions regarding other materials are
necessary. Spills that occur outside on paved vehicle parking lots may discharge to the storm drain
system. There is always concern about preventing soil contamination and a concern of preventing
any spills from reaching the storm drain system.
2 The facility may request an annual inspection from the local Fire Marshall's office.
Greensboro Transit Authority Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
Appendix C Page C-7

Notification of Releases
Facility personnel will be notified of a spill that could pose an immediate threat to their health
through the telephone system, PA system or word of mouth where practical.
The SWPPT Leader will be notified by telephone or voice of all spills of oil or hazardous
substances immediately. The SWPPT Leader will be responsible for notifying off -site agencies of
reportable spills. Only the SWPPT Leader or his designee will contact off -site agencies. Refer to

Appendix C Page C-10

e. Make spill scene OFF LIMITS to unauthorized personnel.
f. Restrict all sources of ignition when flammable/ combustible substances are involved.
g. Report to the incident commander upon his/ her arrival to the scene.
The sequence of initial response action may be altered depending upon individual spill
characteristics (e.g., type of spill, quantity of spill, and/or safety hazards involved). Initial
information is critical. Pre-printed Form 48, which asks pertinent questions, is included in
Appendix A. Answers to some of these questions will not be immediately known, but it is
important to quickly gather as much information as possible without putting personnel in danger.
Identification number, shipping manifests, and placard information are essential for the
identification of the spilled or leaked material. First responders can use DDT's Emergency
Response Guidebook to help identify hazardous substances, and for guidance on initial
precautionary and containment steps.
Additional Emergency Actions
I. In case of fire/ explosion, activate the fire alarm system, telephone 911, and evacuate the,
area.
2. Allow no smoking or open flames within the potential area of the spill.
3. Equipment with magneto -sparked engines or equipment that produce sparks or static
electricity should not be used in potential spill risk areas.
4. Do not use any material that would cause oil to sink or disperse.
5. Place chemical -soaked sorbents and soil in metal, leak -tight drums, label and dispose of
properly.
For releases originating outside of the facility, Maps 1 and 2 will be consulted to determine the
potential flow direction of the spill. Water bodies downstream from where spills could be
discharged may need to be monitored.
In the event additional personnel and/or services are required, the local fire department or outside
contractors may be employed.
For spills that result in a slug discharge to the City's sanitary sewer system, the SWPPT Leader will
notify the City of Greensboro's WWTP4 at [phone].
Contracts or agreements with contractors, transporters, or similar personnel for movement of such
commodities as paints, lubricants, and water treatment chemicals, in or out of the facility, will
stipulate that the contractor, -transporter, or similar person will be responsible for cleanup of spills
on the facility caused by their negligence. The agreement shall also stipulate once these contracted
personnel leave the physical confines of the GTA site, this Permittee's responsibility for their
actions terminates.
The City of Greensboro operates the TZ Osborne WWTP to which this facility discharges sanitary sewerage.

ACTIVITY -SPECIFIC BMPS
Handling and Disposal of Hazardous Substances
This facility uses various oils and lubricants in its normal course of bus maintenance, and
significant amounts of diesel fuel. The facility also generates used oil and a waste solvent. The
substances are stored at the facility in containers ranging is size from 16-oz aerosol cans to 55-
gallon metal drums to bulk metal tanks.
This facility has a designated room for the storage of POLs in bulk tanks up to 1000 gallons in size.
The tanks within this room are all double -walled, but the room itself does not provide secondary
containment.
Some storage locations need improvements. All drums containing hazardous substances should be
placed on spill pallets or within a secondary containment area. Flammables cabinets should be
provided in the maintenance shop for storage of aerosols, paints, lubricants, and other hazardous
substances. Spill kits should also be positioned near hazmat storage areas.
Incompatible materials such as tiammables and oxiders will be stored at least 50 feet apart.
The best solution for hazardous substance storage is to place containers inside a pre -fabricated
metal hazmat storage building with integral secondary containment. These pre-fab buildings also
provide fire and explosion protection. This option is expensive and requires available space to erect
the building.
Another suitable method is to construct a concrete curb around the area where drums will be stored.
Secondary containment that is not exposed to precipitation should have a volume equal to 1 10% of
the largest container within the containment. If the containment structure is exposed to
precipitation, provide containment for 100% of the largest tank and then add 5.73 inches7 to the
height of the containment wall or curb. A ramp can be provided to allow access for drum handling
equipment.
Drums that are used as dispensing units should be set on spill -containment pallets. Dispenser
drums exposed to precipitation should be set within a clam -shell or other type covered spill -
containment pallet.
Regulated Hazardous Wastes
Wastes that are deemed hazardous must be stored in areas protected from precipitation. Spill kits
pre -positioned near hazardous waste accumulation areas will aid in quick response to leaks and
spills. Hazardous wastes should not be stored in close proximity to hazardous materials. Central
and satellite waste accumulation points have certain standards — refer to 40 CFR 262 for further
information.
This is the approximate depth of' rainfall from the 25-year, 24-hour storm event in Greensboro, North Carolina
(NOAA Atlas 14, Vol 2. Version 3, 2004).

Spill Response Tools
Industrial facilities using hazardous substances should obtain spill response tools appropriate for the
facility. The SWPPT Leader shall assess the hazardous substances and potential spill conditions at
this facility and acquire necessary items. Table C.3 provides a guideline for tools that may be
needed for a safe response to a spill of stain, mineral spirits, or other hazardous substances at the
facility. Not all items shown may be required at this facility. The SWPPT Leader shall indicate

Guilford County
Dear Mr. Wilkins:
The Winston-Salem Regional Office has reviewed the "Representative Outfall Status Request
Form" received on September 20, 2012. Specifically, the Greensboro Transit Authority Bus Garage
requested that stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) 001 be granted representative outfall status for
storrwater outfall #'s 002, 003, and 004. Based on the information provided and a site visit conducted by
Mike Mickey on October 24, 2012, we are approving this request with modifications. Specifically, the
monitoring for outfall # 002 cannot be waived at this time since no historical sample data was available
and due to concerns with the possibility of runoff occurring at the bus wash garage exit. The request can
be resubmitted after analytical data is obtained from three separate sampling events for outfall # 002,
In accordance with 40 CFR § 122.21(g)(7), you are authorized to sample outfall number Ws 001
and 002 as representative outfalls and the analytical sampling for outfall #'s 003 and 004 is waived. This
approval is effective with the next sampling event. We also want to remind you that the permit still
requires that the qualitative monitoring be performed at all SDO's, regardless of representative status.
Please remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedences as directed in
the tiered response provisions of your permit must address all drainage areas represented by SDO #'s
003 and 004, where appropriate.
Please append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) or permit to
document that representative outfall status has been approved. If changes in drainage areas, structures,
processes, storage practices, or other activities occur that significantly alter the basis of this approval,
representative outfall status may no longer be valid. You should either resume sampling at all SDOs, or
reapply to this office for representative outfall status based on updated information.

Subject: NPDES General Stormwater Permit Inspection
Greensboro Transit Authority Bus Garage
Stormwater Permit No. NCG080893
Guilford County
Dear Mr. Wilkins:
On October 24, 2012, Mike iMickey of this office rnet with John ` Y'irth, Director of Maintenance
for Veolia Transportation, to perform a NPDES Stormwater Permit Inspection of the Greensboro Transit
Authority Bus Garage located at 223 West Meadowview Road. The inspection found the bus garage to be
compliant with the Stormwater Permit. The findings of this inspection are detailed below and an
inspection checklist is attached for your records. Your Representative Outfall Status request was also
reviewed as part of this inspection and will be addressed by a separate letter.
1. Permit
The Greensboro Transit Authority holds NPDES Stormwater Permit No. NCGO80893 for the discharge of
stormwater from the bus garage. The permit was issued on June 18, 2012 and expires on October 31,
2012. Attached is an application for the City of Greensboro to renew the permit. Please complete the
forth and submit to the Raleigh address listed.
2. Records/Reports
Part 11, Section A of the permit requires the development of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
(SPPP). The Transit Authority had a SPPP prepared by Stormwater Services Group, LLC dated February
28, 2012. All necessary components of the SPPP were included except for the Spill Prevention and
Response Plan (SPRP). Part I1, Section A.(3) of the permit requires the development of a SPRP that is
site specific for the facility. It is our understanding that this document is in the process of being prepared.
Once finalized, it needs to be incorporated into the SPPP.
3. Facility Site Review
A tour of the property found the site to be clean and well managed. Two above ground 20,000 gallon
double -walled diesel tanks and one above ground 12,000 gallon double -walled gasoline tank were located
in the parking lot. Observations did not reveal any major problems or concerns.

4. Effluent/Receiving Waters
Stormwater from the site is discharged at separate four outfalls that eventually reaches an unnamed
tributary to South Buffalo Creek, class "WS-V; NSW" waters in the Cape Fear River Basin. The four
outfalls discharge in close proximity to one another. Observations of the outfalls did not reveal any
concerns.
5. Monitoring Program
Part II, Section B of the permit requires the collection of semi-annual analytical samples of the stormwater
discharge during a representative storm event for the vehicle maintenance activities. This monitoring was
performed on 5/23/12 for outfall #'s 001 and 004 and all results were below the benchmark values. For
some reason no monitoring was provided for outfall #'s 002 and 003. Please note that all monitoring
needs to be conducted per permit condition unless Representative Outfall Status is granted. Monitoring
results should be reported to the Division of Water Quality on form (SWU-250-102107) within 30 days of
receiving the results from your certified laboratory.
Part II, Section C of the permit is not applicable provided the existing oil water separator for the bus wash
is tied into sanitary sewer or the water reclamation system. Our office would like confirmation that the oil
water separator is not routed to the storm drain system.
Part Il, Section D of the permit requires that qualitative (visual) monitoring be performed and documented'
semi-annually at the same time that the analytical monitoring is performed. This monitoring was
performed on 5/23/12 at all four of the outfalls as required. The qualitative records do not need to be
submitted to the Division, however, the records must be kept on file at the facility for a period of five
years.
Our office appreciates your efforts to comply with the requirements of the stormwater permit. You
are requested to update our office by email or Ietter on or before November 21, 2012 concerning the status
of: 1) the SPRP, 2) the oil water separator discharge location and 3) the permit renewal status. Should you
have any questions concerning this letter, please contact Mike Mickey or me at [phone].

Day
If a facility is required to sample multiple discharge locations with very similar stormwater discharges, the
permittee may petition the Director for Representative Outfall Status (ROS). DWQ may grant Representative
Outfall Status if stormwater discharges from a single outfall are representative of discharges from multiple
outfalls. Approved ROS will reduce the number of outfalls where analytical sampling requirements apply.
If Representative Outfall Status is granted, ALL outfalls are still subject to the qualitative monitoring
requirements of the facility's permit --unless otherwise allowed by the permit (such as NCG020000) and DWQ
approval. The approval letter from DWQ must be kept on site with the facility's Storm water Pollution
Prevention Plan. The facility must notify DWQ in writing if any changes affect representative status.
For questions, please contact the DWQ Regional Office for your area (see page 3).

Attachment No. 1
NPDES General Permit NCGO80893
The Permittee is requesting Representative Outfall Status for SDO-00I as this outfall is
representative of the other three industrial outfalls SDO-002, SDO-003 and SDO-004 located at
this bus garage facility for the following reasons:
The industrial activities within SDO-001 include a portion of the bus garage and wash bay, a
warehouse, the fuel tank farm and fuel pumps, and bus parking. The SDO-001 drainage area is
6.89 acres and is 95% impervious.
The industrial activities within SDO-002 include a portion of the bus garage and wash bay,
dumpsters, and bus parking. The SDO-002 drainage area is 2.29 acres and is 90% impervious.
The industrial activity within SDO-003 is limited to bus parking. The SDO-003 drainage area is
0.74 acres and is 90% impervious.
The industrial activity within SDO-004 is limited to bus parking and an access road into the bus
parking area. This drainage area also includes a large employee parking lot which is a non-
industrial activity. The SDO-004 drainage area is 2.47 acres and is 90% impervious.
Overall, SDO-001 has a more varied mix of industrial activities within its drainage area.
All four outfalls' monitoring points are at the outlet end of pipe networks.
The qualitative monitoring reports indicate that all four outfall discharges have similar
characteristics. The analytical monitoring results at SDO-001 and SDO-004 indicate relatively
clean discharges with the measured parameters below the benchmark values. We would expect
the same at SDO-002 and SDO-003.

Mr. Mickey,
I wanted to inform you of an incident that happened here at Eastside, which will affect the outcome of our June 2012
DMR. Due to Operator error and sampler malfunction, we did not collect any Effluent Composite Sample for Monday
6/11/12. We will not have any Effluent Composite test results to report on the June 2012 DMR for that day. The plant is
running well, and we do not anticipate any issues within the receiving stream because of this issue.
When the Operator on duty went to collect the sample on Tuesday morning 6/12/12, the sampler was found to have
a kinked hose in the pump chamber and no sample in the sample container. The Operator notified me, and the sampler
was repaired immediately.
We sincerely regret incidents like this, and the situation is being dealt with. If you have any questions, please contact
me
Sincerely,
