Dear Mr. Clemmer:
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No Exposure Certification for
Exclusion from NPDES Stormwater Permitting form, which we received on October
09, 2019. The Division is unable to concur with your certification of No -Exposure.
Based on an inspection of your facility on November 20, 2019 Mooresville Regional
Office staff found that industrial activities or materials on your site either are
exposed, or have the potential to be exposed. DEMLR cannot grant your requested
exemption from permit coverage when industrial activities or materials are exposed
or have the potential to be exposed. Please see attached inspection report.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Matt Gigante
or James Moore at (704) 663-1699.
Sincerely,
Zahid S. Khan, CPM, CPESC, CPSWQ

Inspection Summary:
Based on the inspection no exposure can not be granted at this time. Uncovered dumpsters are still in place containing
metal shavings, used metal parts, used pallets, etc. I understand that Duke Energy is planning to construct a cover for the
dumpster area and when completed, the site may be eligible for no exposure. Please notify the Mooresville Regional office
after completing this work. Please email pictures to mafthew.gigante@ncdenr.gov and james.moore@ncdenr.gov when
construction is complete.
