Dear Mr. Mickey:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources has reviewed your submittal of the No -
Exposure Certification form for Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater Permitting, Based on your
submittal and signed certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, and the
inspection dated January 3, 2019, this Division is granting your conditional exclusion from
permitting as provided for under 40 CFR 122.26(g), which is incorporated by reference in North
Carolina regulations.
Please note that by. our acceptance of your no -exposure certification, you are obligated to
maintain no -exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your facility can
no longer qualify for a No -Exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES
permit coverage for your stormwater discharge. Otherwise, the discharge becomes subject to
enforcement as an unpermitted discharge.
You must self re -certify your No -Exposure -status annually and the form can be downloaded by
visiting the following web page for the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources
Stormwater Program:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/ir/npdes-stormwater
The annual self re -certification does not need to be submitted to DLMLR unless requested. A
copy should be maintained in your file.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to
obtain environmental permits that may be required under other federal, state, or local regulations
or ordinances.

National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for exclusion frbl"ftlg ldf RgTit based
on NO EXPOSURE: PERMI771n1;1
Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notification that your facility does not require.a
permit for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity in the State of North Carolina because
it qualifies for a no exposure exclusion. A condition of no exposure at an industrial facility means all
industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter. (with some exceptions) to
prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowmeI4 and/or runoff.
For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DEMLR must approve your application for No
Exposure Certification before this exclusion is effective. Until you are issued a No
Exposure Certification and your NPDES permit is rescinded, your facility must continue
to abide by the terms and conditions of the current permit. .
Industrial materials or activities include, but are not limited to: material handling equipment or activities,
industrial. machinery, raw materials, intermediate products, by-products, final products,. or waste products.
Material handling activities include the storage, loading and unloading; transportation, or conveyance of
any raw material, intermediate product, final product or waste product A storm resistant shelter is not
required for the following industrial materials and activities: drums, barrels, tanks, and similar containers
that are tightly sealed, provided those containers are;not deteriorated and do not leak. "Sealed" means
banded or otherwise secured and with locked or non -operational taps or valves; adequately maintained
vehicles used in material handling; and final products; other than products that would be mobilized in
stormwater discharges (e.g., rock salt).
A No Exposure Certification must be provided for each facility qualifying for the no exposure exclusion. In
addition, the exclusion from NPDES permitting is available on a: facility -wide basis only --not for Individual
outfafls. If any industrial activities or materials are, or will be, exposed to precipitation, the facility is not
eligible for the no exposure exclusion. By signing and submitting this No Exposure Certification form, you
certify that a condition of no exposure exists at this facility or site and are obligated to comply with the
terms and conditions of 40 CFR 122.26(g).
If approved, your conditional No Exposure Exclusion has no expiration date
BUT MUST BE self re -certified at least annually.
Please look for information about re -certification under the No Exposure section on this page:
