Please see NOI attached.
We have received an application for coverage of an existing facility under NCG 20 from Morris Scrap Meta! Co. Wes did
an inspection and issued a NOV for this facility not having a permit. The facility drains to a UT of Beason Creek (class C)
in Kings Mountain (Cleveland County).: They perform vehicle maintenance; no haz waste. Does the MRO have any
concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this general permit? Fyi... this. GP was extended through this December, so
I'm not sure yet if we will issue it or hold it for the renewal.
Thanks!

REPORT OF: Stormwater Inspection
DATE OF INVESTIGATION: September 11, 2009
INVESTIGATED BY: Wes Bell t h
PLACE VISITED: Morris Scrap Metal Co., Inc. business site
PHYSICAL LOCATION: 2045 Shelby Road/Kings Mountain/NC
RIVER BASIN: Broad
REASON FOR VISIT: Investigation to determine stormwater permit status.
COPIES TO: Cleveland County Health Department
REPORT:
On September 1, 2009, this Office received a complaint regarding concerns with the
stormwater runoff at the Morris Scrap Metal Co. business site. Mr. Wes Bell of this Office met
with Mr. Chris Morris, Morris Scrap Metal Co., on September 11, 2009 to determine if the
facility would qualify to be covered under a Stormwater Permit.
The Morris Scrap Metal Co. is involved with the recycling and resale of scrap iron/metals
and new and salvage steel, etc. The business site is bordered by two drainage ditches that
converge to one at the back of the property. All stormwater runoff from the business site and
adjacent Shelby Road is collected in these drainage ditches. Both drainage ditches converge to a
single ditch and discharge the stormwater into an unnambed tributary to Beason Creek. No flow
was observed in the drainage ditches at the time of the inspection. The facility has not applied
for coverage under a Stormwater Permit.
Mr. Bell observed oil on the ground and in several small puddles of water at the vehicle
parts storage area. This storage area is adjacent to one of the drainage ditches. These oil
discharges were observed on both sides of the storage area. Vehicle parts (and other mechanical
parts) were being stored on the ground and in metal cylindrical containers. Several used oil
filters had also been placed on the ground behind the machinery that cuts and bails the metal
materials. No oil stains were observed in either of the drainage ditches at the time of the
inspection. Mr. Morris indicated that all used oil is collected in 55 gallon plastic drums and
periodically removed by a contracted company.
