RE: NOTICE OF VIOLATION
Permit No.NCG 160203
Malmo Asphalt Plant, LLC
Dear Mr. Gregson,
(CE0VE
JUL 1 1 1013
1 am in receipt of your Notice of Violation of Permit No.NCG 160203 dated July 3, 2013. 1 am a
bit taken aback by the violation as 1 was not aware that there was any additional reporting that
was required. I thought that when Mark Hargrove was getting the permit in 2010, this was a
renewal for our regular storm water pond that we initially constructed when we first built the
plant. 1 am still somewhat confused as to why I need a General Permit #160203, when we have
operated the asphalt plant for over ten years with no violations, no issues, no problems
whatsoever. 1 had hired a consultant, Conrad Carter of Alpha Environmental Management, and
the reporting that I have always done on a quarterly and annual basis has been related to our Air
Permit #08716RO3. All the communications I have had on a quarterly and annual basis have
been with Terry McCall. On a couple of occasions, Terry has made comments about the smoke
coming out of our stack, at which point we immediately had tests performed to allay any fears,
and everything was fine. I will address your concerns just as promptly as we have done for the
last ten years with air quality.
When Mark Hargrove filed for this NPDES storm water general permit, the instructions for
actions were only necessary if water was being discharged. Since we have never had any water
discharged, we did not realize any of the actions were applicable. We have never even had any
water standing in the pond until this past month following the record breaking rain. This is why
no testing has been done. I did not know that testing was required of us but had I known, I still
would not have had anything to test. In fact, we had to install a sprinkler system around the pond
in order to get the grass to grow for slope stabilization. The NOV states that we can start toward
being in compliance if sampling could be done from any discharge before the August 31`
deadline. As 1 have mentioned, we never have any discharge, so how am I to obtain a sample
from something that never happens? Again, Mr. Gregson, I am just honestly confused as to why
after ten years of what we believed to be following every regulation, suddenly we are found to be
in violation. The State issued the permit in 2010 and we have had no change in procedure since
I'll T
1.�
then. Wouldn't it stand to reason that any areas that needed attention would have been discussed
at the time that the permit was applied for and issued? Again, I fully intend to do everything
required to come into compliance. I simply wanted to note that we had no idea that we were not
in compliance, and were quite surprised by this Notice of Violation.
We work with Joanne Stecnhuis all the time and think she is a very capable and fair person with
sometimes a tough job. We will work with her to be sure we address every concern. In response
to the list of actions requested:
1. This letter serves to fulfill request #1. I have no excuses for not following your rules. I
simply did not realize that they were applicable because we had no discharge. Now I see
that further action is required, and I intend to comply.
2. Dan Mysuik has already compiled a notebook and had much of the infornation ready
upon Joanne's inspection. Dan will continue to work with Joanne to satisfy this
requirement.
3. Dan is already doing this and all the activities are being recorded on a daily basis.
4. 1 will have an engineer address what my options are on the piles of asphalt. We have no
intention of removing these piles, as they are constantly being recycled every day and
going back into making new asphalt, but I want to ensure that we are in compliance
regarding these piles. 'file first thing that I ant doing is hiring Michael Underwood and
Associates to do a topographic map of the area. I will provide that lopo to Mark
Hargrove and will engage him to find a solution that your office will approve.
5. We have contacted Wayne Randolph and will be in compliance with his rules within the
next two weeks. We have cleaned up the affected area and are in the process of pouring a
concrete bottom in the base of the confinement area, and this will satisfy Mr. Randolph. I
have not spoken with him personally, but Dan has, and we are following his suggestion
by installing this concrete base.
6. The Change of Ownership form will be handled by my office. We will send it to Mark
Hargrove to ensure it is filled out properly. A copy of the form is attached for your
records.
Though I may not necessarily agree with this violation, I do understand the importance of strict
regulations and adherence to guidelines. I also feel that the State has a responsibility as well as
the permit holder, and still don't quite understand how we are suddenly in violation after so many
years of seemingly being in compliance. The nature of my business involves constantly crossing
your path, often on behalf of my clients. Please be assured that we do not take this violation
lightly, and intend to remedy it as quickly as possible.
Thank you,
I W 5-."\
