Qualitative Monitoring will be initiated in accordance with the conditions of the NPDES permit_ Quarry personnel will be informed of the schedule and procedures required to conduct this monitoring, and appropriate records will be maintained. 2. In accordance with the most recent SPCC regulations, it is our understanding that secondary containment is not required for designated fuel dispensing areas (i.e. tanker transfer to bulk storage or dispensing fuel for quarry vehicles). Our current SPCC Plan requires that the fuel supplier have a spill containment kit available during the transfer of product. In addition, Martin Marietta has on site absorbent pads, granular material, and booms to address incidental spills. We feel that all feasible alternatives have been provided associated with fueling activities to protect the waters of the State. However, it is our intention to maintain the standards established by our company and implement good housekeeping practices, as well as, continue to educate all employees to meet the desired standards set forth by our company. The runoff from the vehicle wash area discharges as overland flow before reaching any area that may cause concern. However, we will evaluate the implementation of passive and/or active practices to address this issue. 3. The bulk oil containment structure has been cleaned and all material and waste removed. 4. In accordance with the most recent SPCC regulations, it is our understanding that secondary -containment is not required for 55-gallon drums. As of July 1, 2009, these regulations will require secondary containment for all drums and Martin Marietta will comply with these rules. 5. All stained soil from around the vehicle maintenance area will be removed and properly disposed of : A sediment basin has been installed in the tailings disposal area. This basin will be maintained as required. 7. Martin Marietta will determine the cause of the oil sheen on the water in the pit sump, and repair any issues that are discovered. It is our intention to fully protect the waters of the state, and not discharge contaminated water to the stream. 8. Representative outfall status was requested from DWQ on August 8, 2000. No response was ever received for the request. A copy of this documentation will be sent to the quarry for their records, and has been provided for your information. 9. An amendment and/or revision section will be added to the BPM Plan/SWPPP to document updates that have been implemented. This information should complete the requirements of the Notice of Deficiency. Should you have any questions, please contact Richard Broughton at (803) 779-6500. Sincerely, TIN MAFJETTA MATERIALS, INC.

Arrowood, Asheboro, Bakers, Bessemer City, Bonds, Caldwell, Charlotte, Denver, Hickory, Jamestown, Kannapolis, Kings Mtn., Maiden, Mallard Creek, Matthews, Pomona, Rocky River, Salem, Statesville, Thomasville and Woodleaf Quarries Dear Mr. Evans: Based on our past conversations and subsequent meetings with your Department, I am officially submitting two copies of each stormwater maps for the above referenced quarries. This request is for Representative Outfall Status for-stormwater discharges from Land Disturbance, Process Areas and Vehicle Maintenance Areas at our quarry locations, as indicated in the General Permits. I have identified the outfall location for each sample type on the stormwater map for your review. The land disturbance sample location for each site was based on current exposed areas (berm construction or overburden removal) and the maximum acreage exposed. Process and Vehicle Maintenance areas were located on the map, based on drainage features and actual topography of each site. I plan to begin the stormwater sampling in September. I trust the information provided is adequate for your review and approval. If any additional information is required, please feel free to contact me at (704) 525-7740.

There were some minor issues associated with the storm water pollution prevention plan. Qualitative monitoring has not been conducted at the facility. Discussed feasible alternatives regarding providing secondary containment at fueling areas, providing containment for Vehicle wash areas (or recycling the washwater). Some housekeeping issues were observed during the facility inspection. The oil storage containment . area had both product and waste in it. There were some drums of petroleum being stored outside (not under cover and not in containment). Petroleum contaminated soils were observed on the ground in the vehicle maintenance area. Containment areas must be inspected and maintained. Petroleum contaminated soils must be excavated and properly disposed of. There was a land disturbance area that was not stabilized and a sediment basin had not been installed in the vicinity of the discharge from this area. Appropriate erosion control measures must be installed and maintained. An oil sheen was observed on the water surface in the mine pit. The water from this pit is pumped out into a settling cell and reused, as was the process on the day of the inspection. However, when water is not required, the mine water is pumped and discharged directly into a lake that then discharges to a stream. There are not treatment measures from the discharge point to the stream (the lake that the water discharges to all provides attentuation for other properties located around it. The source of oil in the pit must be determined and corrected. Page: 2 F.
