Division of Water Quality
Subject: NPDES Stormwater General Permit
NCG 140000 Application
Putney Concrete
Application Return (Return 91134)
Halifax County
On November 29, 2006, the Division of Water Quality received your Notice of Intent
(NOI) requesting coverage and an Authorization to Construct (ATC) under general stormwater
and wastewater permit NCG 140000. After preliminary review, the Stormwater Permitting Unit
(SPU) has determined the submitted materials are insufficient for us to continue processing this
application. A summary of items is included below to help you address deficiencies so that you
can resubmit the application.
1. Plans and Specifications: These must be prepared either by a Professional Engineer or
employee infernal to the company that is qualified to perform such work in accordance
with G.S. 89C-25(7). No information was provided about who prepared the specification
figures and calculations, and the site plan was prepared by an external consultant. This
deficiency is the primary basis for the return of this application.
2. Site Map
a. The site map did not include finish grade topo lines. While drainage direction of
runoff flow is very helpful, topo lines should be present to corroborate this flow.
b. The stormwater appears to enter the -Roanoke Rapids municipal separate storm
sewer system (MS4). If so, please indicate this in question 8. of the NO1.
c. Will stockpiles be irrigated? Please clarify on the map or in the application.
d. With the proposed stone berm, how will stormwater be directed to the existing
ditch or pipe to Chockoyotte Creek? Please indicate any drop inlets, etc.
3. Design calculations and basis for recycle system
a. Volume calculations for the recycle system do not include rainfall on the mixer
truck ramp (25' x 10'). You should account for the volume,of runoff this will
introduce into the recycle system during the design storm, or explain how runoff
from this part of the structure will be diverted during storm events. ]�orihcarotina

b. It is unclear what the normal operating water depth of the recycle basins will be.
While the design storm depth and 1 foot of freeboard are included in the volume
calculation for each cell, this volume is not related to how much water is likely to
be present at the time of a rainfall. What is the assumed water level under design
operating conditions? Also, will sufficient volume be available to maintain
freeboard when 1 foot of sediment has accumulated, prior to clean -out?
c. If the weir notches are as deep as the "freeboard" available to contain the 25-year
storm and extra foot, how will water flow from cell to cell to accomplish the
settling needed for recycling under normal operating conditions? (In Figure 2, the
design appears to route water from cell #1 to the back of the third cell where it
can be pumped out.) Please clarify the weir placement if this interpretation is
incorrect.
d. The detention tirne in cell #3 is based simply on a pumping rate and amount of
water a mixer truck uses. This calculation does show how long it takes the water
to flow through the system of cells (i.e., the total amount of time particulates have
to settle), and it is not clear how this time is relevant to the design of this recycle
system.
e. There is no water balance calculation provided for the recycle system. Is
"Typical Daily Water Usage" the amount that will be permanently drawn out of
the system by trucks when mixing the concrete (i.e., the output), or the amount
trucks use for drum washout and dispense into the system (i.e., input and output,
if rinse water comes from the recycle system)? A water balance should show all
Inputs - Outputs = No Accumulation.
In addition, please note that the front page of the NOI explains ATC requests must be
submitted at least 90 days prior to'construction. Your application indicated the anticipated
operation begin date was only 30 days after submission. Because the recycle system triggers the
ATC requirement, please factor in this timeframe for any future submittals.
The return of this application does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other
permits which may be required by the Division of Water Quality or permits required by the
Division of Land Resources, Coastal Area Management Act or any other federal or local
goveniniental permit or approval that may be required.
The NOI application is being returned to you with this letter. If you have any questions .
concerning this matter, please contact Bethany Georgoulias at [phone], extension 529, or
Ken Pickle at extension 584.
Sincerely,
Alan W. Klimek, P.E.

Dear Mr. Davis:
Today the Division returns your application for a stormwater general permit with no action.
To date the submitted materials have been insufficient for us to continue processing it.
Further, we understand from a telephone conversation with your agent, Mr. Ron Woodruff
that you do not wish to pursue a permit at this time.
If you have any questions please contact me at [phone] ext. 584, or at

Thanks, Myrl. z'll cover the paperwork at this end. Rather than ask them to send in
a withdrawl request in writing (I'm not sure they would do it) which is our usual
procedure, I think I'll treat this as a "return", and return it to them based on the
extremely insufficient submittals to date, and the protracted time frame since their

Thanks, Myra. So, I could return their N01 and end the processing of their permit. They would then
have to re -submit with an additional submital fee once they get all their ducks in a row. But, it probably
will waste less time and money if I just hold open their application until they resubmit with the proper

Subject: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Request for Information
Startup of Ready Mixed Concrete Plant Without a Permit
Roanoke Rapids, NC
Halifax County
The Division of Water Quality hereby gives you notice that State regulations were
violated by your failure to obtain a stormwater permit before construction and operation of the
concrete facility at 115 W. 131" St., Roanoke Rapids. The construction and operation is a
violation of NC General Statute 123-215.1 "Control of sources of water pollution; permits
requited",
In the effort to process your stormwater permit application, several questions have arisen for
which more information is requested.
According to records of the NC Department of the Secretary of State, Doug Putney Concrete
is not registered as a corporation. You have indicated that the company is jointly owned by
you and Mr. Doug Putney. Therefore, the permit application {Notice of Intent or NO[) will
need to be submitted under that name once proper corporation filings have been completed.
The first page of the previously submitted NOI will be correct once that business is legally
established.
The first NOI was signed by Mr. Ronald Woodruff as agent for MTD Investments, Inc. He is
not the registered agent per the Secretary of State website for either MTD Investments or
River Point Properties. If he is to function as your legal representative for Doug Putney
Concrete, he needs to be registered as Stich dUl-Ina the above filing.

• On the revised NOI being prepared, please provide a written description of how and where
Vehicle Cleaning, Disposal of Unused Concrete, and Drum Washout activities are taking
place at this time. Vehicle cleaning refers to the rinsing of trucks once they are loaded and
before they head fora customer, Disposal refers to any concrete poured out somewhere to
empty the drum, and Drum washout refers to the cleanout typically done at the end of a day
with about 40 to 50 gallons of water.
• For Drum washing to occur at the facility (Question 13), engineering plans will be required
with the NOI to show what is to be built for that purpose.
A few other minor corrections are needed in the NOI as first submitted. Mr. Nisely covered these

Dear Mr. Davis:
A review of materials submitted in conjunction with your request for General NPDES Permit coverage under NCG140000
indicates have not provided some of the basic information required on the Notice of Intent (NOI) form. Item 41 and item
42 information about the owner and the facility, respectively. Please see page 4 of the NOI form for the amount of the
check ($80.00) that must be submitted with the NOI. No fee was received with the NOI

Ken, I don't find Putney Concrete, but I did see the filing for Michael Davis' River
Pointe Properties. It was begun very recently, 6/12/03. 1 think it's under that
umbrella that he is trying to start the concrete operation.

Hi Myrl,
Just to summarize and to pass on additional info, here's what I think we've agreed
to, and where I think we are.
al I'll HOLD Doug Putney's application for a modification to be subm:tted—in�'the
I future, and for your �ok r— ..
b)"It should be signed by Doug, as the active owner/operator of the ready mix
business, and should incorporate the changes we discussed.
c) When he resubmits it, there should be plans and specs for a treatment system.
d) You're going to work with them, and try to put them together with other state
resources so that they can become compliant with the NPDES regs.
e) Even though he's in violation now, the DWQ "policy" has been to focus on getting
people into the stormwater permit program, rather than to seek enforcement action.
f) Unless, of course, the operation has been a very bad environmental citizen. You
would be the best judge of that in this case.
Ken

Hi Joe,
I have an NOI from Doug Putney Concrete on West 13th Street in Roanoke Rapids. They
are a ready mix company and they discharge into Chockoyotte Creek. I'm working to
get their NOI up to snuff, but then I'll issue them stormwater general permit
NCG140337, pending your ok. Do we have any problems with this site or this operator?
Do you want to see the NOI?
