Measurements made in the last cell showed pH of 11.45, as well as a sample taken from the 500
gallon recycle tank. We bring to your attention a health note. High pH water (>10) is strongly
caustic, and is damaging to skin and eyes. Workers should use great caution in spaying down
trucks or otherwise coming in contact with this water.
On the Maple St. side of the plant various materials are stored. Runoff from that side of the plant
collects in the concrete trough along Maple St. to form a point discharge. This runoff must also
be sampled and identified on the plant site map. While no active process takes place, the runoff
may still show pH and solids outside the limits. if so, this will require steps to meet the permit.
On the location map for Part H Section A (l .)(a) please prepare a USGS-type map "zoomed in"
somewhat closer to show the facility's location in reference to transportation routes (as the
present map does) as well as where all stormwater discharges from the property. Identify the
surface receiving stream. Please send a copy of this map to the Division.
A change is also requested on the plant site map. Please designate the approximate areas being
served by each discharge point (Section A(1)(c)). Also send a copy of this map to the Division.
Please respond in writing within 30 days of receipt of this letter. If you have any comments or
questions, contact Myrl Nisely at 919-571-4700.

Dear Mr. Spence:
On October 18, 2002 Mr. Myrl Nisely of the Raleigh Regional office of Division of Water
Quality made a compliance inspection at the Cary facility. The help provided by Mr. Ray Jeffries
and Mr. Mike Setzer was appreciated. The results are as follows:
Documentation requirements (the SPPP manual) were complete except for training records. Mr
Setzer stated that videos are arriving soon and that training will be done the week of 10/21. We
discussed how to document that session plus other stormwater related training given throughout
the year. All employees are to receive stormwater and spill response training at least annually.
The handling of stormwater/process wastewate l in the water recycle system appears to be
satisfactory, although two questions remain. How does the elevation of the recycle system
compare to that of flood levels of the' .creek?_.Are there design calculations to show that the
present water recycle configuration can control the stormwater and process wastewater in
accordance with the permit? Mr. Setzer stated that in times when overflow threatens to occur, a
local pump and haul company removes enough water to stay in compliance. The Division canno
consider this emergency pumping approach as satisfactory design engineering. On the other
hand, recent observations were reported that a 5 to 6" rain was successfully contained. With
potential storage in the 3000 and 500 gallon tanks, perhaps -the present system can satisfy the
permit with specific operating procedures.
