Sullins Govemor Director September 29, 2011 Councill Company, LLC Attn: Mr. Tim Surratt P.O. Box 398 Denton, NC 27239 Subject: No -Exposure Certifications NCGNE0815 & NCGNE081-61 Rescission of Permits NCG180147 & NCG1'80148 Councill Company Plant 1 & Plant 3 Davidson County Dear Mr. Surratt: Dee Freeman Secretary The Division has reviewed your submittal of the applications for No -Exposure Certification for exclusion from NPDES stormwater permitting. Based on your submittal and signed certifications of no exposure at the above referenced facilities, the Division is granting your conditional exclusion from permitting as provided for under 40 CFR 122.26(g), which is incorporated by reference in North Carolina regulations. We are also hereby rescinding your current permit Certificates of Coverage, NCG180147 and NCG180148. Please note that by our acceptance of your no -exposure certifications, you are obligated to maintain no - exposure conditions at both facilities. If conditions change such that either or both of the facilities can no longer qualify for no -exposure exclusion, you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharge(s). Otherwise, the discharge(s) becomes subject to enforcement as an un- permitted discharge. You must self re -certify annually using the included form, or obtain NPDES permit coverage for any stormwater discharges. The annual self re -certification statements do not need to be submitted to DWQ, unless requested. Your conditional exclusions from permitting do not affect the facilities' 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 Jenifer Carter at (336) 771-4957, or at jenifer.carter@ncdenr.gov Sincerely, W.

NO EXPOSURE CERTIFICATION for Exclusion rxVpl Mf.1r +.m WCL", t'b�o _ft NCGNE0000 NO EXPOSURE CERTIFICATION FOR AGENCY USE ONLY Date Received Year Month Day Certificate of coverage NICIGINIE o National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System application for exclusion from a Stormwater Permit based on NO EXPOSURE: Submission of this No Exposure Certification constitutes notification that your facility does not require a permit for stormwater discharges associated with industrial activity in the State of North Carolina because it qualifies for a no exposure exclusion. A condition of no exposure at an industrial facility means all industrial materials and activities are protected by a storm resistant shelter (with some exceptions) to prevent exposure to rain, snow, snowmelt, and/or runoff. For permitted facilities in North Carolina, DWO must approve your application for No Exposure Certification before this exclusion is effective. Until you are issued a No Exposure Certification and your NPDES permit is rescinded, your facility must continue to abide by the terms and conditions of the current permit. Industrial materials or activities include, but are not limited to: material handling equipment or activities, industrial machinery, raw materials, intermediate products, by-products, final products, or waste products. Material handling activities include the storage, loading and unloading, transportation, or conveyance of any raw material, intermediate product, final product or waste product. A storm resistant shelter is not required for the following industrial materials and activities: drums, barrels, tanks, and similar containers that are tightly sealed, provided those containers are not deteriorated and do not leak. "Sealed" means banded or otherwise secured and with locked or non -operational taps or valves; adequately maintained vehicles used in material handling; and final products, other than products that would be mobilized in stormwater discharges (e.g., rock salt). A No Exposure Certification must be provided for each facility qualifying for the no exposure exclusion. in addition, the exclusion from NPDES permitting is available on a facility -wide basis only —not for individual outtalls. If any industrial activities or materials are, or will be, exposed to precipitation, the facility is not eligible for the no exposure exclusion. By signing and submitting this No Exposure Certification form, you certify that a condition of no exposure exists at this facility or site and are obligated to comply with the terms and conditions of 40 CFR 122.26(g). For questions, please contact the DWO Regional Office for your area.

You were present for the inspections. The purpose of the inspections was to review compliance with the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) General Stormwater Permits. You took over your current position in 2010 and have been in the process of updating, and renewing the implementation of each SWPPP, including staff training and visual monitoring of the outfails. Since there is no vehicle maintenance performed at any of the facilities, no analytical monitoring is required. It was noted that the facility on N Main Street was used for warehousing only and easily qualifies for No Exposure Certification. If you apply for and receive such certification, and should the facility be used for manufacturing again, you would be required to make sure the facility continues to meet the qualifications for the certification, or apply for a new NPDES General Stormwater Permit. You seemed to have a good grasp on the requirements of the permit. Your efforts to understand and implement them are appreciated. Please contact Jenifer Carter at (336) 771-4957 with questions regarding these inspections. Sincerely, W.
