Dear Mr. Medlock:
The Asheville Regional Office staff have reviewed your request dated December 17, 2019, for a
determination that stormwater discharge outfall (SDO) 001 be granted representative outfall status for
stormwater outfall 003. Based on the information and maps provided and site visit, we are Denying this
request. Please see the enclosed inspection report for a full explanation for this denial.
Please append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) or permit to document
that representative outfall status has been denied. If changes in drainage areas, structures, processes,
storage practices, or other activities occur that address the concerns leading to this denial, reapply to this
office for representative outfall status based on updated information. If you have any questions or
comments concerning this letter, please contact me at 828-296-4500.
Sincerely,
Stanley E. Ai GA

Inspection Date: 12/17/201e Inspection Type : Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
On December 17, 2019 this facility was inspected for compliance and to determine if representative ouffall status could be
approved as requested. I met with Alisa Hatmaker on site. During the inspection, the following compliance issues were
noted:
1) Secondary containment was not provided for all bulk storage of liquid materials on site. The permittee is directed to
immediately begin efforts to provide secondary containment for all bulk storage areas discussed on site as outlined in the
NCG160000 General Permit.
During the inspection, the following items were noted concerning the request for Representative Outfall Status
1) The storage of fine asphalt "dust' is exclusively located in the drainage area of Outfall 3. Representative Outfall Status
cannot be granted for the facility because there is an industrial process likely to contribute to TSS in the drainage area of
Outfall 3, and therefore the Industrial process is not the same or similar to the representative outfall requested.
2) There is no history of Analytical monitoring data for Outfall 3. Representative Outfall Status cannot be granted for the
facility because there is no monitoring history for the outfall which is proposed to be excluded from analytical monitoring.
If you have any questions, please contact this office at [phone]
