Subject: No Exposure Certification NCGNE0271
Analog Devices, Inc.
7910 Triad Center Drive, Greensboro, NC
Guilford County
The Division has reviewed your submittal of the No -Exposure Certification for Exclusion from NPDES
Stormwater Permitting form, which we received on March 11, 2006: Based on your submittal and signed
certification of no exposure at the above referenced facility, the Division is granting your certification as'
provided for under 40 CFR 126.22(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations., The
Division of Water Quality is rescinding your previous Stormwater Certificate of Coverage, NCG030106, based
solely on your no exposure certification.
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 un-permitted discharge. Your
conditional no -exposure exclusion expires in five years (March 1, 2011). At that time you must re -certify with
the Division, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges from your facility.
Your certification of no exposure 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.
If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Sarah Young at (919) 733-5083, ext
502, or at sarah.young@ncmail.net.

RE: Generai Storm Water Permit Covera e AppficabilLty Determination
Dear Bradley:
I want to thank you, for all of the information you've, passed on to me so far pertaining to • .
storm water permitting requirements in -North Carolina. lt's good to get the inside scoop'
on'how regulations are interpreted, especially being from out-of-state. I was hoping you
could assist nib in clarifying what "industrial activities" are exempt from General Storm
Water Permit Coverage in North Carolina.
On November,11, 1999, I toured the Analog Devices Inc. (Analog) Greensboro, NC site.
The purpose of the tour was to review whether the site needs coverage under the North
Carolina Department. of Environment; Health and Natural Resources (N_ C DEHNR)
General Permit for Storm Water (NCG030000).
Background
The Analog Greensboro Manufacturing facility has always maintained.that it would
prefer to implement Best Management. Practices (BMPs) which would eliminate
' exposures to storm water because as a Category I 1 facility, that.would preclude coverage
under the C=eneral Stern Water Pe.:.iit. ,
As far back.as 1991, Analog implemented BMPs such as relocating the storage of
hazardous wastes indoors anddristalling roof over hangs aver Shipping andReceiving
Docks, so as not to have to get coverage under the General Storm Water Permit. Though
the intent was to be exempt from General Storm Water Permit coverage, it appears that .
Analog submitted a Notice of Intent '(NOI) in September 1992. Analog included a cover
letter with the NOI explaining the Best Management Practices it had. implemented, and'
requested an exemption from storm water coverage. However, Analog received a '
Certificate of Coverage (NCG030106) in April 1993.
Analog assumed that because the cover letter submitted with the original NOI had not led ,
to an exemption, then it must have,to renew its original permit coverage. According=to
NC DEHNR,.Analog renewed it's coverage under the General Storm Water Permit in
Capaccio Environmental Engineering, Inc. Page I .
Project No. 93-026 1 1/23/99
May 1997. The permit coverage was reissued in October 1997 and will expire August.31,
2002,
Storm Water Permit Applicability -
The way I understand it; if all three of the following 'conditions: are met; the. Analog
Greensboro. facility would.be. required to have coverage under storm water, regulations.
1. If it has a point source discharge.
2. ' . If it discharges to "Waters of the US" and' ' -
.3. If it is considered an "industrial activity" subject to the"regulations. =
It appears that the Analog Greensboro facility meets Conditions.•) and 2. However, '
Condition 3, pertaining to "industrial activity"-,is:where•.we, nced'some regulatory
interpretation and clarification.
It appears that the NC'DEHNR allows for exemptions to. storm water permits. In a fact
sheet (WQSWOOFS) I downloaded from NC DEHNR's website, it states-, "A category of
industrial facilities defined by SIC Codes is known•as "Category l I When facilities
within this category eliminate the exposure of materials/products/handling equipment to
storm'water, they are not required to file an application for a storm water. permit."
Analog s SIC Code.(3674).falls,under Category 11• facility requirements. Therefore, my
opinion is that the following areas would not be' considered `"industrial activities;.',
because there.appears to be no exposure of chemicals to storm'water. However, I would -
like clarification as to whether the following would be considered "industrial activities"
' . by the NC DEHNR.
1.. Outside storage of•Nitrogen and,Helium in -aboveground tanks— inert gases stored'
in•liquid form under pressure '
.2. Totally enclosed furrie scrubber- no longer used because. processes moved off -'site
...but still, connected, located outside ,
'nutside.s.cr'-be of Fuel O.1L in aboveground Lark `,vi«h sCceruary conta:nii+. r+t that
is totally, enclosed.
4. Make-up Air Units on Roof which are•standard`for most facilities:
" 5. Air Conditioner Units on Roof which are standard for most'facitities
6. - Trash dumpsters located under an extended roof at the dock, trash only .
'Shipping and Receiving Dock -with an extended roof at the dock•to eliminate
exposure during loading and unloading'

Project No. 93-026.. 9 1 /23/99
Request for Clarification
The Analog Greensboro facility would like to be considered "exempt' from the General
Storm Water Permitting requirements. Being a Category I 1 facility, it has implemented
BMPs.to.elim'inate exposures, to reach that goal: ITeel that it may be possible to be
exempt, however, clarification is -needed on what is considered an "industrial- activity" by '
the NC.DEHNR.
Pm requesting clarification on the above -mentioned "industrialactivities"'. -To facilitate .
your response, please feel free to either, call me at 1(978)'443-0202 Ext.l4 or e-mail

advance.
