Box 27326, Raleigh, NC 27611 JUL 302015�( NC NR Ralei i P 'onal C:'.o RE: Response to the NPDES Stormwater Compliance Evaluation Inspection, COC Number NCG140042; Ready Mixed Concrete— Knightdale, Plant 1; NCG14000 General Permit for Ready Mixed Concrete; Wake County This letter is in response to the items needing our attention and a response back to you from the stormwater compliance inspection at our Knightdale facility on June 5, 2015. First of all, I want to explain to you about the length of time it has taken for us to respond to you. Your letter was dated June 8, 2015, but it was in a packet that was postmarked July 2, 2015. Because of the holiday and some internal delays, I did not get your letter until late afternoon on July 9, 2015. We have taken to this time to respond so I could review the items noted and the inspection with our Operations Manager, Jay Watkins. We -have also went to the Knightdale plant and reviewed the site again ourselves and with our plant supervisor. Our plant supervisor, Dwight Mitchell, resigned at the end of May to take another job, but came back at the first of July and is supervising the plant and activities again. Below are the actions we have taken and our responses to the items noted. The stormwater plan was reviewed and certified. From the review, it was found that the plan did not need modifying and the site plan did not need to be updated/changed. The annual employee training has been completed and documented. Where the unmonitored stormwater discharge was observed at the driveway heading onto Wake Stone road, we have put in a berm at corner of ditch by drain pipe and we have raised the grade at the driveway to try to push the water into the ditch and into the drain pipe. More importantly, we cleaned out some blockage at the opening to the drain pipe and feel this will allow the flow from the ditch to flow more freely into the pipe without blockage. We will visually monitor the flow at this driveway to try to avoid creating an SDO here. I apologize for the way our pit looked during your inspection. The pit at this plant has never been that full in the 8 years I have been here, but our person responsible for cleaning the pits out was working from behind, we had an acting plant supervisor for a month, and we had a unique situation with the construction repairs which should not have been placed in the pit. Based on observations since I have been here, the pit has never been within 5 feet of being full and 1 do not feel that water gets out of our pit during a rain event. Even if it did, it would flow to the ditch outside of our fence at the backside and into the ditch that leads to our settlement basin. Looking at our site plan this is accounted for on the plan and is monitored in our analytical sampling from our SDO. We have dug the pit out and it is probably 15 feet deep now. We will monitor to make sure it does not reach the close to full level that was observed in vour inspection. 1 have not had our environmental firm come out to provide calculations for 25 year storm but I will schedule no later than August 3, 2015, unless you notify me that it is not required of us to do so anymore. I have provided a picture of the pit now that it has been dug out. 4. There was evidence of a spill or leak that was probably old around the compressors behind the storage building. The area was cleaned up and the compressors have been inspected and were not showing any evidence of a current leak as inspected. I want to thank you for taking the time to inspect our facility and communicate your concerns with our Operations Manager. I am disappointed in particular about the way our pit looked at this particular inspection. We want to convey our concern for our environmental responsibilities to our state environmental agencies when they come out for inspections. We have tried to implement corrections for compliance based on your comments and our knowledge ofour facility at Knightdale. With that being said, we do battle a difficult situation in our industry daily in that trucks have to be rinsed regularly and concrete returned from jobsites has to be dealt with daily and inmost cases with limited space. We hope that you can see this also and understand what we deal with also regularly with pits and clean out from pits. Just to let you know we try our best to sell returned concrete, put it in blocks, and we have just recently starting using a product that helps convert returned concrete into basically stone to be resold or used to produce concrete. We just started doing this at Knightdale and have about 75-100 tons of it on hand. Our plants are generally open based on daily production requirements. Please feel free to contact Jay Watkins, Raleigh/Durham Operations Manager, the local Plant Supervisor or myself when you would like to perform an inspection of any of our facilities. Jay and/or I can be reached at 919-790-1520. Very truly yours, Ready Mixed Concrete Company famev LT Wa&era James A.

The stormwater inspection results for NCG140242 are presented below. The stormwater pollution prevention plan (SPPP) was reviewed and contained most of the required components however, it needs to be updated and certified annually, and employee training must be documented for each year. Likewise, the site plan should be reviewed and updated as appropriate to match existing conditions. Secondary containment is provided for the bulk storage of liquid products onsite. Qualitative monitoring is performed semi-annualiy in accordance with the permit. Vehicle maintenance is not conducted onsite other than minor greasing or topping off oil levels. Analytical monitoring for stormwater has been conducted twice per year at the ditch SDO location at the southeast corner of the site prior to discharge to a pond which overflows to the creek. Results indicated compliance with stormwater benchmark concentrations. However, the earthen wash pit which occasionally overflows and commingles with stormwater flowing to the SDO, is not sampled as a process wastewater, nor does it have pH control. Further, the pit has been partially filled from both concrete deposition and utility construction/repairs, and does not have sufficient volume to operate as a recycle pit and contain the 25-year, 24-hour storm for its existing drainage area. Facility staff explained that pit water is not currently recycled back into concrete production but is sprayed on a large waste pile to soak in as a means to manage freeboard level. As such, pit effluent must be sampled going forward or reconfigured to capture and hold the 25 year storm with supporting calculations provided to the Division. A potential SDO location was observed at the southwest corner driveway/ ditch crossing and should be brought up in grade to force stormwater into the adjacent ditch, effectively eliminating this SDO location. Alternatively, it may be monitored as another SDO. Significant oil residue was observed around two large air compressors and must be addressed and cleaned up. Air quality inspection results are covered under separate report. No solid waste or land resource program violations were observed.

At that time, it was learned that there was a violation of Air Permit Stipulation B.6. This stipulation states: In accordance with 15A NCAC 2Q .0309, this permit is subject to revocation or modification by the DAQ upon a determination that information contained in the application or presented in the support thereof is incorrect, conditions under which this permit was granted have changed, or violations of conditions contained in this permit have occurred. In accordance with G.S. 143-215.108(c)(1), the facility shall be properly operated and maintained at all times in a manner that will effect an overall reduction in air pollution. Unless otherwise specified by this permit, no emission source may be operated without the concurrent operation of its associated air cleaning device(s) and appurtenances. The air permit authorizes the facility to construct and operate a specific list of air emission sources and/or air cleaning devices and appurtenances as described in Air Permit No. 08352R07. Emission source 1D TLP-01.1, truck loading point has a baghouse control system ID 131-1-01.1 installed as an air cleaning device. However, based on statements by facility personnel and observations during the June 5, 2015 compliance inspection, it was noted that there was excess visible emissions above 20 percent opacity being emitted. It was also observed by the inspector that your baghouse's magnehelic gauge was reading 5 inches water column, even though facility records indicated two days prior to the inspection it was reading 3 inches water column. According to your facility staff the increased reading could indicate that bags need to be replaced.

Sullins Director August 1, 2011 Dee Freeman Secretary Subject: NPDES Stormwater Permit Coverage Renewal Ready Mixed Concrete - Knightdale, Plant 1 COC Number NCG140242 Wake County In response to your renewal application for continued coverage under stormwater General Permit NCG140000 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is forwarding herewith the reissued General Permit. This permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). The following information is included with your permit package: • A new Certificate of Coverage • A copy of General Permit NCG140000 • A copy of the Technical Bulletin for the General Permit • Two copies of the Discharge Monitoring Report (DMR) Form for Stormwater • Two copies of the DMR Form for Wastewater • Two copies of the Qualitative Monitoring Report Form The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater and/or wastewater, and it specifies your obligations with respect to discharge controls, management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new permit to familiarize yourself with all the changes in the reissued permit. If your Certificate of Coverage (COC) restricts authorization to discharge stormwater only (or other limited terms), you must contact the Stormwater Permitting Unit if you would like to request a modification to your COC. The first sample period of your permit begins July 1, 2011. However, because of the delayed mail -out of permit packages, your facility is expected to attempt to sample during the first sampling period, and must comply with sampling requirements beginning during the second sampling period. Your facility must sample a representative storm event between January 1 and July 30, 2012 (for stormwater sampling), and/or sample wastewater between October 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011 (or, if applicable, report "No Flow", as outlined in Part V, Section E). Additionally, your facility has 6 months from the time of receipt of the permit to update SPPP to current standards. The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage include the following (please note the names and numbers of sections have been changed from the previous permit revision): Part II: • Authorization to Construct (ATC) language was added to the permit and adapted to fit NCG140000. Part III: • The Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) section has been updated to the most current language of our permits. Some additional conditions specific to this industry have been added to the SPPP language. Part IV: • Sections A & B: Revised provisions require stormwater discharges be sampled twice per year (instead of annually), and sampling results shall be compared to new benchmark values. (The previous cut-off concentrations have been removed). • Sections A & B: Revised provisions require the permittee to execute Tier One, Two & Three response actions: Tier One requirements for a first benchmark exceedence, and/or Tier Two response for a second consecutive benchmark exceedence, if applicable. Tier Two requires that the permittee institute monthly monitoring (reported to the appropriate Regional Offices) instead of twice -per -year monitoring. Monthly monitoring shall be done until three consecutive monitoring events show no benchmark exceedences. • Sections A & B: This permit now contains a provision that four exceedences of any benchmark will trigger increased DWQ involvement in the permittee's stormwater management and control actions (Tier Three). DWQ may direct the permittee to apply for an individual permit, institute specific monitoring, or may direct the implementation or installation of specific stormwater control measures. • Sections A & B: Failure to perform analytical stormwater monitoring requires that the permittee begin a monthly sampling scheme for both industrial stormwater discharges and/or stormwater discharges from VMA areas (where applicable). After 6 months of monthly sampling, the permittee may return to semi- annual sampling, unless otherwise specified by DWQ. • Sections A & B: A lower TSS benchmark of 50 mg/I for HOW, ORW, PNA and Tr Waters was added to this permit for these more sensitive waters. • Section B: The monitoring parameter Oil & Grease has been replaced by the parameter Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons. • Sections A, B & C: Inability to sample due to adverse weather must be reported in the SPPP. • Sections A, B & C: The terminology "Representative Storm Event" has been replaced by "Measurable Storm Event" in response to comments from industry groups. A measurable storm event is a storm event that results in an actual discharge from the permitted site outfall. The previous measurable storm event must have been at least 72 hours prior, unless the permittee is able to document that a shorter interval is representative for local storm events during the sampling period, and obtains written approval from the local DWQ Regional Office. • Section C: Qualitative monitoring must now be conducted semi-annually and is tied to the same measurable storm event as the analytical monitoring. • Section C: If the permittee fails to respond effectively to problems identified by qualitative monitoring, the permittee may be required by DWQ to perform corrective action. • Section D: This section has now been consolidated to one section with one set of combined tables for all types of authorized wastewater discharges. • Section D: The wastewater analytical monitoring schedule has been set to quarterly. • Section D: TSS limits have been revised for PNA, Trout and HOW waters per rule requirements in 15A NCAC 02B .0224. • Section D: 7010-based flow limits have been set for PNA waters per regulations in 15A NCAC 02B. • Section D: TPH monitoring requirements have been added to wastewater monitoring when stormwater runoff from VMA areas commingles with wastewater. • Section D: This wording in the permit has been removed: "For facilities which route stormwater and all process wastewater to a recycle system, no analytical monitoring of process wastewater discharges is required if that recycle system discharges as a result of a 10-year 24-hour (or larger) precipitation event." Part V: • Section A: For existing facilities previously permitted and applying for renewal under this General Permit: New elements of the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan for this permit renewal shall be developed and implemented within 6 months of the effective date of the initial Certificate of Coverage issued pursuant to this General Permit and updated thereafter on an annual basis. Your coverage under the General Permit is transferable only through the specific action of DWQ. This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required by DENR, nor does it relieve the permittee from responsibility for compliance with any other applicable federal, state, or local law, rule, standard, ordinance, order, judgment, or decree. If you have any questions regarding this permit package please contact these members of the Stormwater Permitting Unit: Jennifer Jones (919) 807-6379, Ken Pickle (919) 807-6376, or Bethany Georgoulias (919) 807-6372.

NPDES Permit Number NCG140216 NPDES Permit Number NCG140242 and NPDES Permit Number NCG140074 Wake County Dear Mr. Austin: Michael F. Easley, Governor William G. Ross, Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Coleen 11. Sullins, Director Division of Water Quality On June 25, 2008, Ms. Stephanie Brixey of the Raleigh Regional Office conducted a stormwater evaluation inspection of Ready Mixed Concrete Co. facilities located on Unicon Drive, Forestville Road and Old Garner Road. The assistance of James Walters, Region 1 Manager, Dexter Tart, Asset Manager, and yourself was , appreciated as it eased the inspection process. The following observations were made: Ready Mixed Concrete Co. - 5025 Unicon Drive - NPDES Permit Number NCG140216 The facility does have a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) on site. ;The Facility Inspection program includes monitoring the outfall, semi-annual housekeeping inspections, and secondary containment inspections semi-annually, annual inspection of the dust filter system and inspecting for spills and releases. Employee training is documented. The process water is contained in a closed loop system and the water is recycled and mixed with concrete. The water enters in to a four -pit area, goes through a filtering system; pH adjustment and a CO2 system before being stored for re -use. The area is bermed and ditched in such a way that all stormwater will pond on -site near the pit. It appears that a discharge would only occur if there were continuous heavy rainfall over a period of time. At his time no analytical monitoring has been conducted due to no discharge. Section C of the General Permit No. NCG140000 states, "For facilities which route stormwater and all process wastewater to a recycle system, no analytical monitoring of process wastewater discharges is required if that recycle system discharges only as a result of a 10 year - 24 hour precipitation event." n` r,Carolina UMAY North Carolina Division of Water Quality Raleigh Regional Office Surface Water Protection Phone (919) 7914200 Customer Service Internet: h2o.encstalerc.us 1629 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1628 FAX (919) 571-4718 1-877-623-6748 An Equal OpportunitylA(finnadve Action Employer— 50% Recycled110% Post Consumer Paper Ready Mixed Concrete Co.

Mr. Austin stated that he would email me the lab results and make sure a copy was on -site. The last analytical documentation on -site was from 2001. Please submit this documentation within 15 days of receiving this letter. Ready Mixed Concrete Co. - 604 Old Gamer Road- NPDES Permit Number NCG140074 The facility does have a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) on site. The Facility Inspection program includes monitoring the outfall, semi-annual housekeeping inspections, and secondary containment inspections semi-annually, annual inspection of the dust filter system and inspecting for spills and releases. Employee training is documented. 2. The washout pits have been relocated to higher ground on the premises to prevent commingling with stormwater. The water from the pits is recycled and used to wash out the trucks. 3. Analytical and qualitative monitoring has been conducted as required. Please be reminded that Section B of the general permit describes the analytical monitoring requirements from a stormwater discharge and that Section C describes the analytical monitoring requirements from the process wastewater. In the case of commingled process wastewater, the most stringent of the applicable limits will apply. Section F of the permit describes the qualitative monitoring requirements. "All qualitative monitoring will be performed twice per year, once in the spring (April - June) and once in the fall (September - November)." The overall conditions of Ready Mixed Concrete's stormwater programs at the three facilities listed above are complaint with Division standards.

Ross, Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources January 4, 2005 Mr. Larry Spence Ready Mix Concrete, Inc 3610 Bush Street Raleigh, NC 27609 Subject: Stormwater Compliance Inspection Ready Mixed Concrete Co. Knightdale Facility, Raleigh, NC NPDES Stormwater Permit NCG140242 Wake County Dear Mr. Spence: Alan W. Klimek, P.E., Director Division of Water Quality On December 29, 2004 Myrl Nisely of the Raleigh Regional Office of Division of Water Quality made a compliance inspection at the Knightdale facility. The help provided by Donny McHenry was appreciated. See the attached checklist. Comments are: The SPPP manual contained all the required components. Significant Spills -data sheets had no entry for 2004, so needs to be updated. The record near the beginning of the manual had a 2002 date, but in the data filed at the back, there was an entry for 2003. The entire manual needs to have a documented annual review. 2. The manual had no analytical sampling data for 2004. Mr. McHenry said there had been no flow. Yet, our later discussion and observations during a site tour showed that water regularly leaves the washout pit. There may be confusion about sampling for various parts of the permit and whether rain is required for sampling to take place. The permit can be thought of as having two parts, one for "pure" stormwater, and one for process water discharges. The stormwater section requires sampling during a rain event. The test results are compared to cutoff concentrations and, if low enough, can exempt the plant from further sampling of stormwater until the last year of the permit cycle. In contrast, the process water in Section C can be sampled anytime there is runoff occurring because a process is taking place, and does not have to be done during a rain storm, unless a completely closed loop recycle system is involved. Permit limits must be met to have an allowable discharge. This testing must be done every year — there is no cutoff exemption. So in the case at Knightdale, the pit overflows with some regularity and should have been sampled during 2004. The series of stone barriers in the overflow channel is apparently successful in attenuating solids to desired levels. However, pH may still require some kind of neutralization procedure.

A judgment will be needed by Ready Mixed to verify whether this is true. A second sample point for that flow needs to be established near the fence, much like the other sample point for the pit overflows. The two flows combine soon after they enter land owned by the Quarry, then travel through vegetation before entering a large pond owned by the Quarry. This pond overflows into Beaverdam Creek, or an unnamed tributary of that creek. Please take steps to see that in the future the limits are met at the fence line for the pit overflow release. 3. It was noted that the manual contains a data reporting form for the five-year permit cycle that began in August 2004. Older blank forms with dates for the cycle just ended can (should) be discarded.
