Dear Mr. Deaton:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
On January 26, 2011 the Washington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received a written
response from your consultant SwSG Storwater Services Group, LLC regarding the stormwater inspection conducted on
December 2, 2010 for the subject project.
Industrial activities such as hull maintenance and hull cleaning generate solid and liquid industrial wastes that
contain metals. There are high concentrations of metals, particularly copper and lead, that are present in the anti -fouling
paints used on boat hulls. Your consultant requested that we consider marina wash water similar to that of vehicle wash
water. Vehicle wash water typically seen at car washes wouldn't contain the same concentrations of metals as the wash
water generated from pressure washing boat hulls. It is important to keep this in mind when you are pressure washing,
sanding, and scraping the boat hulls at your facility so close to surface waters. Your SP3 plan should address ways to
reduce the exposure of these solid and liquid wastes to stormwater runoff. You should make a conscientious effort to
reduce the exposure of the wastes to stormwater by segregating the two. By segregating wastes from stormwater, you are
minimizing the volume of wastewater draining off your site. Remember, the NPDES NCG190000 only authorizes
stormwater—only discharges to surface waters. Your SP3 plan addresses BMPs to treat stormwater, not wastewater.
Please note that boat wash water is a wastewater regardless of whether it discharges to the ground or directly to
surface waters. In either case the wastewater must be properly treated and properly disposed. You may need to contact a
certified waste hauler to dispose of your wastes. If the wastewater is infiltrated into the ground, a permit may be required
from the Aquifer Protection Section within the Division of Water Quality. Groundwater contamination could be
occurring by allowing washwater, known to be highly concentrated with metals, to infiltrate into the ground.
In an effort to minimize exposure of industrial waste to stormwater runoff, the BMP actions you suggested are
satisfactory to DWQ. If connection to the local sanitary sewer is not allowed please advise us what other options you are
considering for wastewater disposal.
One of our goals in revamping our NCG 190000 NPDES inspections on the coast, is to provide education and
outreach to marina owners and operators on compliance of the NPDES program. Due to the close proximity of your
industrial activities to surface waters, the potential to impact those waters with harmful pollutants increases. Therefore,
we are making you aware of some of the things you can do to minimize the impact your industrial activities have on the
environment. We are hopeful that we have provided you with a better understanding of the types of discharges we found
during our inspection.

We did not conduct a thorough check of your marina's SP3 plan during the inspection. Since the Washington
Regional Office does not have a copy of this plan, some information in the previous inspection report may be inconsistent
with the SP3 plan. It would help to have a copy of this plan in our Office to avoid future misinterpretations. Please
forward a current copy of your SP3 Plan to this Office.
We do not disagree with your statement that USEPA's drinking water standard for copper is 1.3 mg/L. USEPA's
water quality standard for SA, SC, and SB waters is 3 ug/L (or .003 mg/L). Your facility is located in SA waters. You
cannot compare drinking water standards to surface water standards. Drinking water is tested for the safety of human
consumption. Surface water is tested primarily for the safety of benthic organisms since that is their natural habitat.
Benthic organisms absorb metals into their tissues from the water column and from contaminated sediments. These
organisms are unable to metabolize the metals in their tissues as humans can. Therefore, continuous exposure of high
metal concentrations in their natural environment leads to unhealthy concentrations of metals in their tissues. Shellfish
are examples of benthic organisms. Please keep in mind that by not minimizing your exposure of waste to stonnwater,
you are contributing pollution to surface waters that are adjacent to your facility.
If you have any questions please contact Roger Thorpe at the Washington Regional Office, telephone number
[phone].

In response to your letter dated December 14 2010, we offer the following response:
Your finding that there is an unpermitted discharge of wastewater to surface waters from bout
washing is incorrect.
This facility washes boats over a gravel area as far away from the water's edge as possible such
that all washwater infiltrates into the ground. Boats are never washed during rainfall events, and
washwater does not pond on the ground at this marina. There is no point source (i.e., outfall)
that -;discharges washwater to surface waters at this facility. There is no "sheet flow" of
washwater or wastewater at this facility into surface waters.
General Permit NCGO80000 allows for the infiltration of vehicle washwater. Such consideration
should be given to marinas.
There may be residual bottom paint particles and dust from hull washing, cleaning, and sanding
on the ground from this facility's past operations, but that is an expected occurrence from this
type of industrial activity. Since this facility is not certifying to "no exposure", then some
residue should be expected — and allowed - to be on the grounds as long as reasonable BMPs are
implemented.
The natural mixing of stormwater with dry ground residuals does not create a wastewater — it
creates polluted stormwater. Stormwater discharges are authorized under General Permit
NCG 190000.
This Permittee is committed to reducing residuals to the maximum extent practical by
implementing best management practices. For example, all hull sanding operations occur over a
tarp and/ or use a vacuum sander to collect particles and dust. The Permittee has instructed all

r
i W;

Letter to NCDENR/ DWQ
January 25, 2011
Page 2
SwSG
employees and sub -contractors (hired directly by boat owners) to implement these practices to
control dust and residue.
The Permittee has considered the installation of a closed -loop wash system, but has deemed it to
be too expensive. For example, the Clean Marine Solutions machine costs about $15,000 plus
operating expenses. This cost does not include the cost of constructing a concrete wash
containment pad.
The Permittee will pursue the option of discharging the washwater to the local municipal sanitary
sewer system.
In the meantime, the Permittee will place geotextile filter fabric over the existing gravel in the
designated wash area. Boats will be power washed over this fabric, which will capture most of
the particles that may be knocked off the hull during this operation. After drying, the fabric will
be swept with the residue bagged and placed into a dumpster for disposal in a lined landfill.
On page 2 of your letter, you state "It is required that the permittee follow the tiered sampling
guidance...... Tiered actions are not required until the third year of Permit coverage. The third
year commences October 1 2011. With the second sample of the third year not due until
September 2012, tiered sampling may not start until October 2012. This Permittee is following
the sampling schedule indicated in the Permit. In the meantime, this Permittee is trying to
determine the source(s) of pollutants in its stormwater discharges and will implement appropriate
BMPs.
On page 3, you have indicated a "No" for several items. We will address each of these negative
findings:
Does the Plan include a list of significant spills occurring during the past 3 years?
Section 1.4.5 of the SWPPP states that there were no significant spills in the 3 years prior
to the effective date (12/30/09) of the SWPPP. Each semi-annual inspection report since
December 2009 states "there have been no significant spills since the previous report'.
This information was available to your field inspectors.
A list and a report will be created if and when a significant spill occurs.
Has the facility evaluatedfeasible alternatives to current practices?
All of the BMPs indicated in the SWPPP and subsequent semi-annual inspection reports
were deemed feasible. While a full-blown cost/ benefit analysis was not performed — this
in itself is not feasible — common sense and experience dictated the BMPs written into
the SWPPP and implemented to date. Tables 4 and 5, and Appendix C in the SWPPP
describe the BMPS deemed feasible. This information was available to your field
inspectors.

Letter to NCDENR/ DWQ
January 25, 2011
Page 3
SwSG
Does the Plan include a BMP summary?
Table 4 and Appendix C in the SWPPP describe the BMPS that this Permittee committed
to implementing. Table 4 also provides target dates for implementation. Table 5 is
provided for the Permittee to write in additional BMPs implemented during the Permit
term. This information was available to your field inspectors.
Is the Plan reviewed and updated annually?
The previous SWPPP was updated in late 2009 to reflect the changes in the re -issued
General Permit NCG190000. The current SWPPP has an effective date of 12/30/09. The
current SWPPP is reviewed by the Consultant and SWPP Team during each of the semi-
annual inspections; two of which occurred in June 2010 and December 2010. If any
updates had been necessary since December 2009, they would be documented in the
SWPPP on Form 5 and narratives in the semi-annual inspection reports. This information
was available to your field inspectors.
Has the SWPPP been implemented?
The current SWPPP commenced implementation in December 2009 and is continually
being implemented. Your field inspectors should have seen evidence of implementation
at the facility and by documentation in the SWPPP notebook. All required records to
date were available for review.
Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoringfrom Vehicle Maintenance areas?
Vehicle Maintenance occurs within the SDO-001 drainage area. This facility collected
stormwater samples at SDO-001 in March and September 2010. The DMRs were
submitted to Central Files prior to your inspection. Copies of DMRs and the lab analysis
reports are inserted into the SWPPP at Appendix F. All required DMRs to date were
provided to your field inspectors for review.
Your letter states that Copper and Lead exceeded the benchmark values. Lead has not exceeded
the BMVs as the analysis indicated Lead at 0.029 mg/L in March 2010 and 0.011 mg/L in
September 2010; the BMV for Lead is 0.030 mg/L.
Copper did exceed the BMV in both 2010 samples. The BMV for Copper is 0.007 mg/L which
is an extremely low value to achieve. Considering that the USEPA's drinking water MCLG for
Copper is 1.3 mg/L (ref httn://water.epa.aov/drink/contaminants/index.cfm#List), is it
reasonable for NCDENR to expect any Permittee to meet a value in stormwater that is 185 times
less than an acceptable level in drinking water?
There may be background sources of Copper for which the Permittee has no control. For
example, Copper in the potable water used for boat washing may exceed the BMV. Copper
concentration is also dependant on water hardness; the Permit does not require an analysis for
water hardness.

SwSG
We would also like to point out that our NC -certified laboratory, TriTest, can only report Copper
as low as 0.010 mg/L. This reporting limit is greater than the BMV.
On page 4 of your report, you give a negative finding for the statement "Has the facility
evaluated all illicit (non stormwater) discharges?"
We are not sure of the meaning of "evaluated". Does this term mean to analyze non-
stormwater discharges, or to determine the existence of non-stormwater discharges?
During the development of the current SWPPP and the previous SWPPP, the site was
inspected and no non-stormwater discharges were present. We also look for illicit
discharges during the semi-annual site inspections; none have been found. In our
opinion, there is no point discharge of any sort of washwater or wastewater to surface
waters as all washwaters are allowed to infiltrate. There is no sheet flow discharge of
washwater at this marina. Numerous documents and pamphlets published by NCDENR,
MS4 operators, and P2 organizations encourage the infiltration of vehicle washwater.
If there are any non-stormwater discharges, General Permit NCG190000 does not require
that samples be analyzed.
In summary, we believe we are in compliance with General Permit NCG190000 and therefore
disagree with your finding of non-compliance.
In regards to your 60-day request for a schedule of steps to achieve compliance, we offer the
following only as BMPs that will help reduce any pollution that may be found in the stormwater
runoff from this marina:

Dear Mr. Deaton:
On December 2, 2010 Roger -Thorpe, Scott Vinson and Samir Dumpor of the Washington Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) inspected Deaton Yacht Service, Inc. in Pamlico County to determine compliance with
Federal NPDES general Stormwater Management Permit Number NCG190078 issued on August 8, 2007. DWQ file
review and site inspection revealed that the site is not compliant with the terms and conditions of the permit and General
Statute 143-215.1. There is an unpermitted discharge of wastewater to surface waters from boast washing, maintenance
and repairs. This unpermitted discharge occurs by sternal runoff mixing with waste materials and draining to
Whittaker Creek, classified as SA- IIQW- NSW. During the inspection we discussed with Mrs. Deaton some possible
ways to,collect the waste water and waste materials and to eliminate the unpermitted discharge of waste water. You
should begin implementing practices that will eliminate these unpermitted wastewater discharges and amend your
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan to include these practices. Please find a copy of the completed form entitled
"Compliance Inspection Report" attached to this letter.
Please be advised that you are required to comply with the terms, conditions and limitations of the Federal
NPDES General Stormwater Management Permit, North Carolina General Statutes 143-214.7 & 143-215.1, including
operation and maintenance of a permitted stormwater system. Please respond in writing within 60 days of receipt of this
letter with a schedule and include those specific steps planned to achieve compliance and a time table of when they shall
occur.
Please be advised that violations of your Stormwater Management Permit may be subject to the assessment of
civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day per violation. if you have any questions please contact the Roger Thorpe at the

Inspection Summary:
Currently wastewater and waste materials are allowed to mix with stormwater runoff and allowed to discharge to surface
waters without a permit. The permittee needs to start separating and collecting waste materials from washing, rinsing,
power washing, sanding, boat repair, boat maintenance activities, etc. and properly dispose of thes materals to a facility
properly permitted to handle such waste. The SPPP should be amended to account for these measures and their
implementation. It is required that the permitte follow the tiered sampling guidance per Part II., Section B. Analytical
Monitoring Requirements of the NCG19 permit.

Comment: Currently wastewater from washing, power washing, sanding, etc. is
allowed to disgharge to the ground thereby allowing stormwater to mix with the waste
materials and discharge during rain events. It was requested that they begin using tarps
and or other other types of waste containment measures as soon as possible and that
they stop allowing the unpermitted discharge of wastewater/materials. They need to

Dear Mr Deaton:
Jeff A. Manning from the Washington Regional Office of the Division of Water Quality conducted a site inspection of your
facility, Deaton Yacht Service, Inc. located at 1306 Neuse Drive, Oriental, NC, Pamlico County, North Carolina on
December 07, 2007. The site visit and file review revealed that the subject project is covered by NPDES Stormwater
General Permit NCG190078.
The following observations and/or permit condition violations were noted during the Division of Water Quality inspection:
1) Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP)
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SPPP) has not been developed, recorded, and properly implemented.
2) Qualitative Monitoring
Qualitative monitoring has not been conducted and recorded in accordance with permit requirements.
3) Analytical Monitoring
Analytical monitoring has not been conducted and recorded in accordance with permit requirements.
(Please see the attached addendum for information about your permit).
Other Observations:
1. The required SPPP was not completed and being implemented. The analytical and qualitative monitoring has not

Failure to comply with the conditions contained in your permit is considered to be a violation.
2. You should be sure to dispose of your oil absorbent material in an approved manner. Placing the material in a bag and
taking it to the landfill is acceptable. You should not allow the material to be swept onto the ground as this allows the

3. You should read your entire permit and be aware of what is required in it. It is your responsibility as the permit holder
to read and understand what your responsibilities are. oar

Addendum

ADDENDUM
The National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) program was established under the federal Clean Water
Act and then delegated to the Division of Water Quality for implementation in North Carolina. The NPDES permitting
program for stormwater discharges was established in 1990. Phase I focuses on site and operations planning to reduce
pollutant sources.
Through the NPDES permitting program industrial facilities that fall into one of the subject ten categories are required to
obtain permit coverage under a general permit or an individual permit, depending upon the facilities SIC code and the
industrial activity occurring at the facility. There are currently 19 active general stormwater permits in North Carolina. One
condition that is applicable to both the general permits and individual stormwater permits is the requirement to develop
and implement site -specific comprehensive stormwater pollution prevention plans (SPPP). These plans are required to
include a comprehensive evaluation of the site and operations to reduce pollutant sources and prevent pollutant
discharge.
Copies of the general permits and accompanying documents can be accessed from the following webpage:
http://h2o,enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms Documents.htm Permit text, technical bulletins, discharge monitoring forms, and a
Notice of Intent [which is the application of for coverage under a NPDES General Stormwater Permit] can be found at this
web site.
The following items are a subset of permit requirements and are listed to assist you and help bring your attention to
certain permitting issues, process and condition requirements of your permit. That said, please see the above mentioned
web site in order to obtain a copy of the permit such that you may fully comply with all the conditions therein. Failure to
properly comply with conditions of the permit, like those bulleted below, constitutes violations and are subject
civil penalty assessment of up to $25,000.00 per day.
• Industrial facilities that fall into one of the subject ten categories are required to obtain permit coverage under a
general NPDES stormwater permit or an individual NPDES stormwater permit
• All persons desiring to have facilities covered by a General Permit must register with the Division of Water Quality
(DWQ) by the filing of a Notice of Intent (NOI) and Applicable Fees.
• This Notice of Intent (NOI) must be submitted and a Certificate of Coverage issued prior to any discharge of
stormwater associated with the industrial activity, process wastewater, and/or mine dewatering.
• Once the Notice of Intent is received, DWQ will review and determine whether a Certificate of Coverage (COC)
may be issued. If this Certificate of Coverage is issued the facility is covered by the General Permit. That is, the
permittee is authorized to discharge stormwater, process wastewater, and/or mine dewatering pursuant to the
type of General Permit until the permit expires or is modified or revoked.
• Any other point source discharge to surface water of the state is prohibited unless it is an allowable non-
stormwater discharge or is covered by another permit, authorization or approval.
• There are currently 19 active general permits. Permit conditions vary accordingly; however, most of the permits
have following condition requirements (you must read your entire permit to ensure full compliance):
o Development and compliance with the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan
o Collection, reporting, and recording of Analytical Monitoring
o Collection, reporting and recording of Qualitative Monitoring
o Collection, reporting and recording of Vehicle Maintenance Monitoring
o Records — Visual monitoring shall be documented and records maintained at the facility along with the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan. Copies of the analytical monitoring results shall also be
.maintained on -site. The Permittee shall retain records of all monitoring information, including all
calibration and maintenance records and all original strip chart recordings for continuous monitoring
instrumentation, and copies of all reports required by this general permit for a period of least 5 years for
the date of the sample measurement, report or application.

o 'Expiration — The permittee is not authorized to discharge after the expiration date of the general permit. In
order to receive automatic authorization to discharge beyond the expiration date, the permittee shall
submit forms and fees as are required by the agency authorized to issue permits no later than 180-days
prior to expiration date. Any permittee that has not requested renewal at least 180 days prior to
expiration, or any permittee that does not have a permit after the expiration and has not requested
renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration, will be subject to enforcement. Failure to renew your
permit is a violation.
o Transfer — The Certificate of Coverage (COC) issued pursuant to this general permit is not transferable to
any person expect after notice to and approval by the Director. The Director may require modification or
revocation and reissuance of the Certificate of Coverage to change the name and incorporate such other
requirements as may be necessary under the Clean Water Act. The Permit is NOT transferable.
o Name Change, Closure or Facility Ownership change — Permittee is required to notify the Division in
writing in the event the permitted facility is sold or closed. The Division of Water Quality views changes
of name or ownership as a modification that requires the Director's approval and reissuance of the permit.
Name and ownership changes required you to complete a Name/ownership Change Form from the
Division and mail it back to the Division of Water Quality along with all appropriate information.
o Proper Operation and Maintenance is a requirement of the permit.
