A concrete barrier has been erected that prevents the stormwater run off from entering the wastewater pits where we wash out trucks. The pits are cleaned out frequently keeping the water level way below run off. With the addition of the concrete barrier, there will no longer be any water run off that will expose the creek or any wetlands. With -this letter, we respectfully request that a permit no longer be required -of Asheboro Ready Mix. Please feel free to contact me at 336-672-0957. Sincerely, Todd F.

Randolph County Dear Mr. Richardson: ROY COOPER Governor MICHAEL S. 'REGAN secretary TRACY DAVIS Director On June 27, 2017 Glen White of the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality — Department of Energy, Minerals & Land Resources met with you at at the subject facility, located at 524 W. Bailey Street, Asheboro, to conduct a compliance inspection for the facilities Industrial Stormwater Permit. This inspection was conducted as part of investigation required following application of a rescission request to determine if the facility is qualified to eliminate industrial stormwater coverage under National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) rules. Permit: This facility holds General Stormwater Permit NCG140031 to discharge stormwater from industrial activity primarily engaged in ready -mixed concrete [SIC 3273] and like activities and Associated Stormwater and/or Process Wastewater under the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination Systcm (NPDES). The permit became effective July 1, 2016 and expires on June 30, 2017. A copy of the current permit is required to be maintained with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) documents. A copy of the current permit was available for review at the time of inspection. Records/Reports: This facility was required to develop and maintain a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) in accordance with Part III, Items 1 thru 10 of the permit. Inspector reviewed the SPPP and found that it has been updated annually. Training has been conducted annually and each employee signed off with pen and ink signatures. Mr. Richardson has signed off on the certification annually. Facility Site Review: Thi facility is a ready -mix concrete batch plant and has been in business in the existing location for over 30 years. Mr. Richardson has made recent improvements to his truck wash/process wastewater collection basin to prevent wastewater from leaving the site and entering the State ofNOrthCarolina 1 Em"nMemalQuality j Energy, Mineral aW Land Resources WmstorrSalernReglonalOfP.ee 1 450Hanes Mill Road.

Application for rescission suggest that the process wastewater pit is cleaned out frequently and that a discharge cannot happen. At the time of inspection, the pit was about two inches below the point it would begin W discharge. Inspector believes there remains a significant chance for an illicit discharge of wastewater that could potentially impact downstream properties. Ms. Patty Perry (Office Manager) conducts quarterly analytical monitoring of the wastewater discharge as required under the process wastewater provisions of the permit. Effluent Receiving Waters: Effluent from this facility drains to an unnamed tributary to Hasketts Creek a part of the Deep River and being class "C" waters of the Cape Fear Watershed. Seif Monitoring Program: This facility is required to conduct Analytical & Qualitative Monitoring of its stormwater outfalls.on a semi-annual basis. Review of the grounds show that stormwater discharge leaves the property via sheet flow rather than concentrated flow. By the time it gets to a point of concentrated flow, it has reached channels outside the property boundary and has been contaminated by outside sources. Stormwater monitoring is not ciurently being required.given the aforementioned facts but this issue may be revisited in the future. Analytical Monitoring is required to be conducted quarterly per the permit. Ms. Perry collects and sends the samples for collection. Results appear to be within parameters.

Randolph County Dear Mr. Richardson: On July 17, 2013, Jenny Graznak of this office performed a Compliance Evaluation Inspection at the Asheboro Ready Mix facility located at 524 West Bailey Street in Asheboro, North Carolina. This facility holds General Permit No. NCG140031 under the Nationaf Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to discharge Stormwater and Wastewater from Ready Mix Operations. You were present for the inspection. This type of inspection consists of two basic parts: a review of facility fifes and self -monitoring data and an inspection of the facility's discharge outfalls. This particular inspection evaluated five (5) areas, and observations from each area are addressed below: 1. Permit The permit became effective July 1, 2011 and will expire June 30, 2016. A complete copy of the current permit was available for review during the inspection. 2. Records/Reports The facility has a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) for the site that is dated 1999. The SPPP was mostly complete; however it does not appear to have been updated since 1999 to reflect any changes in management or site design. In addition, the permit does require that you provide and document annual Employee Training on the SPPP and its contents. 3. Facility Site Review Process water from vehicle and equipment cleaning areas drains to a set of three wastewater pits on site, which are- arranged in series. Sediment and silt settle to the bottom of the pits, which are routinely cleaned out. The sediment from the pits is moved to a drying area and then offered to local landowners to use for fill material. When it rains, the third pit in the series discharges a combination of process wastewater and stormwater. Most of the stormwater on site seems to drain to the third pit, which is the lowest point on the property.' Materials stored outside include flyash and cement stored in silos, chemical additives for concrete in 1,000-gallon tanks, cleaning chemicals in 55-gallon drums, one aboveground diesel tank with secondary containment, and piles of aggregate and sand used in processing. Used oil is kept in barrels in the shop building.

Effluent/Receiving Waters The facility has one discharge outfall. Stormwater and wastewater from the property discharge to an unnamed tributary to Hasketts Creek (Class C) in the Cape Fear River Basin. Ms. Graznak did observe water running in the discharge ditch on the day of the inspection. 5. Self -Monitoring Program The process wastewater from the site does comingle with stormwater prior to discharge. Therefore, this facility is required to perform quarterly analytical monitoring of the combined discharge in order to meet the monitoring requirements of this permit. An on -site review of the monitoring data during the inspection showed that the facility is only performing the semi-annual analytical monitoring requirements for stormwater-only discharges. See the attached pages #1 and #2 for further explanation on the monitoring requirements. You will need to add one new parameter (Settleable Solids) to your sampling procedure and start sampling on a quarterly schedule instead of semi-annually as you have been. Please feet free to contact our office should you have any questions regarding this change. All sampling results were within the effluent limitations set forth in the permit. The facility is properly performing the semi-annual qualitative monitoring requirements of the permit. Monitoring events occurred on January 2, 2013 and April 4, 2013. Please refer to the attached report for further details from the inspection. If you have any questions concerning this report, please contact Ms. Graznak or me at (336) 771-5000. Sincerely, W.

Stormwater that is commingled with wastewater shall be considered wastewater, and is not covered under this section of the permit. Analytical monitoring ofstormwater discharges shall be performed as specified below in Table 1. All analytical monitoring shall be performed during a measurable storm event at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO). A treasurable storm event is a storm event that results in an actual discharge from the permitted site outfall. The previous measurable storm event must have been at least 72 hours prior. The 72-hour storm interval does not apply if the permittee is able to.document that a shorter interval is representative for local storm events during the sampling period, and obtains approval from the local DWQ Regional Office.

Grab samples shall be collected within the first 30 minutes of discharge from an SDO or detention pond. 3. Samples shall be collected at each stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) unless representative outfall status (ROS) has been granted and documented by the Division of Water Quality. A copy of the letter granting ROS shall be kept on site. 4. For each sampled measurable storm event the total precipitation must be recorded using data from an on -site rain gauge. A minimum of 50 days must separate each monitoring event unless additional monitoring has been instituted. The permittee shall complete the analytical samplings in accordance with the schedule specified in Table 2, unless adverse weather conditions prevent sample collection. Inability to sample due to adverse weather conditions must be documented in the SPPP (see Adverse Weather in Definitions) and reported on the DMR. Part IV Page 1 of 11 Permit No. NCG140000 Table 7.

Process wastewater discharges shall only be monitored for TPH when commingled with stormwater discharges from VMA areas. S. For each sampled discharge event, the total discharge duration and flow rate must be provided. Flow rate can be measured continuously or calculated. Failure to monitor wastewater quarterly per permit terms immediately institutes monthly monitoring for all wastewater parameters. Violation of permit limits twice in a row immediately institutes'monthly monitoring for all wastewater parameters. In either -case, after six (6) months of monthly monitoring, the permittee may return to a quarterly monitoring schedule, unless DWQ requires continued monthly monitoring. Wastewater discharges must meet the requirements of the effluent limitation listed in Table S, below. An exceedence of any of these limitations will result in a violation of the permit conditions.
