Dear Knopf:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
The Division has reviewed your request for Representative Outfall Status (ROS) at the subject
facility. Based on a site visit and information provided, the request has been approved with the
modification removing 107-006 from the site plan and monitoring schedule. The ROS is
effective with the next sampling event.
In accordance with 40 CFR § 122.2 1 (g)(7), you are authorized to sample the outfalls as described
in the following table.
Representative Stormwater
Discharge Outfall (SDO
SDOs Represented
107-010
107-003, 107-008, 107-009
Please note: the permit still requires Qualitative Monitoring be performed at all SDOS, regardless
of representative status.
Please remember that any actions you initiate in response to benchmark exceedances as directed
in the tiered response provisions of your permit must address all drainage areas represented by
the SDO, where appropriate.

Please append this letter to your Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) or permit to
document that ROS has been approved. If changes in drainage areas, structures, processes,
storage practices, or other activities occur that significantly alter the basis of this approval,
representative outfall status may no longer be valid. You should either resume sampling at all
SDOs, or reapply to this office for representative outfall status based on updated information. If
you have any questions or comments concerning this letter, please contact Chuck Cranford at

Inspection Date: 05/16/2011 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
DWQ staff was met on site by Weldon Peek, Gary MacMahan and Willie Breedlove. A tour was conducted of the facility,
observing the stormwater conveyances and outfalls and site conditions. During the visit, the SPPP manual was reviewed,
operational activities and existing stormwater exposures were discussed. At the time of the inspection the site was found
to be in compliance with the permit. The inspector noted that the facility appeared to maintain good housekeeping
practices and records were found to be in good order.
It was determined that outfall 107-006 is not an official outfall and can be removed from the site plan. 006 discharges to
the basin that disharges through 107-001.
During the visit, the following was clarified:
* 107-001 discharges wastewater
> 107-002 discharges stormwater from the vehicle maintenance area
All other outfalls discharge only stormwater.
Representative Outfall Status has been granted where:
> 107-010 represents 107-003, 107-008 and 107-009

Subject: Vulcan Construction Materials, LP
General Permit NCG020000
Request for Sampling Extension
Various Counties
Dee Freeman
Secretary
We are writing in response to your request for an extension to collect the first semi-annual stormwater
sample under this permit. In your letter of June 23, 2010, you requested an extension to August 315t to comply with
sampling requirements at several Vulcan facilities across the state. Your letter cited reasons to support the request
that included:
•' _-
Hard copies'of the new NCG020000 permit not being received until mid -February, when the permit had
become effective January 1, 2010;
• Spotty weather patterns resulting in storm events during non -operating hours that prevent sample
collection; and
r The need for additional time to train Sampling Personnel on significant changes in the permit.
One of the reasons for your request was the new provision that monthly monitoring will apply for the
remainder of the permit term, should the mine ever fail to collect a sample during a scheduled monitoring period
(footnote 1 of Table 1 in Part III). While considering your request, the Stormwater Permitting Unit (SPU) realized this
provision may unfairly affect permittees who obtain coverage under NCG020000 in the middle of a monitoring
period. The SPU has written up guidance to address this situation and related conflicts in the permit text (see
attachment).
Recognizing there were possible conflicts with this provision that our guidance now addresses, DWQ will
grant your request for an extension to collect a stormwater sample by August 31, 2010. However, we note that
Vulcan Materials Company should have been prepared to comply with permit monitoring requirements prior to
receiving hard copies of the permit in mid -February. Specifically:

Monitoring Extension Request
July 2, 2010
• The SPU met on several occasions with the North Carolina Aggregates Association (NCAA) through the
NCG020000 renewal process, beginning in August 2009. Vulcan Materials is a member of NCAA, and a
representative of the company attended the initial meeting.
• The provision that triggers monthly monitoring for failure to sample came out of discussions with industry
representatives during these meetings and was incorporated into the final permit as a result.
• The definition of representative storm event also changed as a result of these discussions with NCAA to
increase sampling opportunities during operating hours. A representative storm event in NCG020000 now
only requires a period of 48 hours of no rain prior to the event.
• An advance copy of the final permit was forwarded to the Executive Director of the NCAA on December 29,
2009 and subsequently distributed to NCAA members. The final NCG020000 permit was available to all
permittees on the DWQ website when it became effective in January 2010.
• Stormwater sampling requirements are not new with this renewal, even though sampling is now semi-
annual (instead of annual in the previous permit). Vulcan should have already been familiar with the
stormwater sampling requirements.
If you have any questions regarding this letter, please contact Bethany Georgoulias at (919) 807-6372.

REPRESENTATIVE OUTFALL STATUS (ROS)
REQUEST FORM
FOR AGENCY USE ONLY
Dale Received
Year
Monlh
Day
If a facility is required to sample multiple discharge locations with very similar stormwater discharges, the
permittee may petition the Director for Representative Outfall Status (ROS). DWQ may grant Representative
Outfall Status if stormwater discharges from a single outfall are representative of discharges from multiple
outfalls. Approved ROS will reduce the number of outfalls where analytical sampling requirements apply.
If Representative Outfall Status is granted, ALL outfalls are still subject to the -qualitative monitoring
requirements of the facility's permit —unless otherwise allowed by the permit (such as NCGO20000) and DWQ
approval. The approval letter from DWQ must be kept on site with the facility's Stormwater Pollution
Prevention Plan. The facility must notify DWQ in writing if any changes affect representative status.
For questions, please contact the DWQ Regional Office for your area (see page 3).

SECTION 5.0 DISCHARGE SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS
The General Permit requires sampling and analysis of point source discharges that fall in the following
categories.
Mine dewatering and/or discharges of process wastewater, including commingled
stormwater.
Stormwater discharges from other plant areas where the stormwater has contacted areas
directly related land disturbance and process areas..
Stormwater discharges from on -site vehicle maintenance areas.
5.1 Process Water and Stormwater Sampling/Analysis Program
Refer to Table 1 for required sample frequency and analytical parameters. There are four
appropriate sampling locations at the Enka Quarry which will be used to sample various process
water and stormwater discharges. Each outfall to be sampled is listed below along with a brief
description of each outfall's type of discharge.

Hominy
Stormwater
Stormwater associated with industrial

Creek
activity. This sample location receives
runoff from yard, material stockpile and
railroad areas.
Note: There are a total of 8 discharge points (7 Stormwater, 1 process water) at the Enka
Quarry site.
Mine dewatering flows and runoff from yard, land disturbing, and process areas
which drain to the active pit are pumped to the old pit. Washwater is withdrawn from
and recycled to the old pit. If the water level in the old pit rises too high, a discharge
will occur through an overflow culvert at outfall 107-001.
Outfell 107-002 is the discharge point for the runoff from the area around the shop
(vehicle maintenance activities).
Most of the material stockpile and yard areas which do not drain to the pit drain at
multiple locations to a small stream which traverses the north end of the property,
through the stockpile area, and then joins Hominy Creek. Outfalls 107-003, 107-
008, 107-009 and 107-010 all discharge into this tributary which leads to Hominy
Creek. Considering outfall 107-010 receives a Larger portion of the discharge, and
also a percentage of runoff from the railroad area, this outfall has been selected as
the representative outfall for all material stockpile and yard areas.
Outfalls 107-005 and 107-006 each receive a small amount of runoff from general
access road areas. Outfall 107-005 is the representative outfall for these runoffs.
•
The following table summarizes the total additional outfalls at this site which will not require
sampling. The abovementioned outfalls that will be sampled have been linked to the
following outfalls based on the overall type of discharge each additional outfall will represent.
All outfall locations are indicated on the partial mine map in Appendix I. Documentation of
representative outfall status should be kept on site within the Mineral Mining Plan.

Compliance Evaluation Inspection
Vulcan Construction Materials -Enka
Permit No: NCG020151
Buncombe County
Dear Mr Knopf:
Enclosed please find a copy of the Compliance Evaluation Inspection report from
the inspections conducted on September 19, 2006 and September 29, 2006. Laurie
Moorhead and 1 conducted the inspections. The facility was found to be in Compliance
with permit NCG020151.
Messrs. Weldon Peek, Gary McMahan, and Willie Breedlove assisted us during
the inspection. Their help was appreciated. The facility has an adequate Stormwater
Best Management Practices Plan. The facility is also conducting monitoring as required
by the permit. There are, however, several items that need to be addressed.
The Stormwater-Best Management Practices Plan indicates the presence of seven
outfalls. The Plan also indicates that one outfall is being sampled as representative of 4
of the other outfalls. Though the inspectors concur that the land use draining to these
outfalls is indeed similar, written concurrence from the DWQ Director is necessary
(NCG02000 Part IV Section D (6)). Until the Director grants representative outfall status
monitoring must occur on all outfalls. You may petition for representative outfall status by
submitting a written petition to the following address:
Stormwater Permitting Unit
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1617
The secondary containment around the drum storage area is leaking as evidenced
by soil staining around the entire base of the secondary containment area. Please
address this issue as soon as possible.

The facility is doing all required monitoring. The facility has a complete BMP plan and spill pollution
prevention plan.
The facility is monitoring one outfall as representative of additional outfalls. While the inspector concurrs
that the monitored outfall is indeed representative of the additional outfalls the Permittee must request, in
writing, representative status. Until representative status is granted all outfalls must be monitored.
The facility should evaluate the integrity of the secondary containment surrounding the 55 gallon drums.
The containment appeared to be failing as evidenced by staining at the base of the wall on the ground
adjacent,to the containment area.
